By the coast, a hundred-meter Star Gate shimmered with flowing light.
Beyond the Star Gate, an army forged of steel stretched as far as the eye could see.
Above the Sky Dome, squadrons of fighter jets streaked across, weaving an iron curtain.
In the distant ocean, scores of aircraft carriers, destroyers, and frigates dotted the seascape, ready for action.
All cannons were aimed at the figure who emerged from the Star Gate.
"In the name of the Federation Command Center, I order you to stand down, or what awaits you is total war," said the voice.
"War?"

Gu Jinlai took a step forward, and his form swelled against the wind, in an instant growing from less than two meters tall to a colossal Chaos Demon God thousands of kilometers high, emitting the brilliance of a white dwarf star from his being, his own gravity causing thunder and lightning, as well as tsunamis and tides within a thousand-mile radius.
He looked down...
At the war weapons that seemed like toys.
He reached out, and a hydrogen bomb fell into his hand.

Within him, the electron-degenerate star core released Helium, Helium elements expanded, and the terrifying high temperature instantly caused Deuterium and Tritium, Hydrogen's isotopes, to fuse, the energy bursting forth, forming a blazing white brilliance on the ocean's surface that was like igniting a sun.
Before this sun's energy could be released, he clapped his hands together, and the dazzling white, mixed with heat in the billions of degrees, was compressed and sealed within his palms, not a fragment escaping.

"I think, you should choose peace." he suggested.

"What a keen perception; his spirit level must be close to the eleventh rank."


Yan Xiang glanced at Gu Jinlai with some surprise.


Qin Yuanzhen, who was accompanying him, was shocked: "This... this can't be possible, right? It's extremely rare for a Golden Immortal phase to have a spirit reach the tenth rank, let alone the eleventh rank..."


"Once in a hundred epochs, a prodigy may occasionally reach such a level, but among the prodigies that appear once in a thousand epochs, there may be one or two who can achieve it."


Yan Xiang continued: "Like the number one of our Fire Cloud Palace generation, Luo Qianqiu, personally taken as a disciple by the great Emperor Xi, he once raised his spirit to the eleventh rank before entering the Immortal Realm, and Immortal Venerable Wan Jie similarly pushed his spirit to the eleventh rank while in the Golden Immortal Realm."
