Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

And this was merely a beginning.

Boom!

At the next moment, radiant sacred flames blazed from Gu Chen's body, and amidst the golden flames, he appeared like a deity in the fire, his own radiance shining as bright as the sun.

In an instant, the rolling true solar fire coalesced into a grand sun, plummeting from the sky, targeting the nine Great Powers of the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and the Jiuying Clan.

"Suppress!"

Facing Gu Chen's astonishing onslaught, the nine Great Powers had cold expressions, and they roared in unison, each taking action. Tremendous energy fluctuations immediately scattered the clouds in the sky and the earth trembled, the void of heaven and earth shaking continuously.

True dragons roared, sacred flames blistered, the solar fire blazed intensely, various lights surged, and the void's energy churned with relentless, shocking fluctuations.

The strength of the Great Powers was indeed extremely formidable. Even when suppressed to the Huanxu Realm, they were unmatched by ordinary Huanxu realm cultivators, let alone those unified realm cultivators.

Not to mention, it was now nine Great Powers joining forces. Regrouping their efforts, they no longer underestimated their opponent and blocked Gu Chen's attack.

However, Gu Chen's strength was equally formidable. When his offensive was blocked, he deployed the Immortal Sacred Body, a faint glow appearing on the surface of his body. His blood energy, vast like the sea, made even the sun and moon pale in comparison.

"What kind of physical strength is this?!" At that moment, the nine Great Powers paled, the pure physical fluctuations were too strong, reminding them of the scene where they had just been crushed.

Boom!

The earth shook and the cosmos trembled; Gu Chen once again deployed the Moving Mountain Seal, a vast and towering mountain condensed, standing high in the sky with an intimidating presence!

For a time, Gu Chen, relying on his strong physique and the strength of the Moving Mountain Seal, alone, was able to charge back into the encirclement of the nine Great Powers.

"Arrogant!"

"The boy is seeking his own death!"

Upon seeing this, the nine Great Powers were immediately filled with splitting anger, each with deadly intents, all exerting their full strength, deploying divine abilities, and striking Gu Chen simultaneously.

Since their cultivation was suppressed, the strength of their divine abilities was only about eighth rank, but even so, it seemed sufficient in the eyes of the people from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and the Jiuying Clan!

Thud!

At that moment, a great collision unfolded. Primordial mountains bore the weight of the heavens, with ancient forests exuding their vast and archaic essence. Simultaneously deploying the Moving Mountain Seal, Gu Chen also used the Nine Heavens Thunder Movement.

"This should end now!"

Gu Chen's hair danced wildly, his eyes sharp like knives, his voice chilling as he spoke such a sentence.

If this were before, undoubtedly many would think Gu Chen arrogant, but now, the entire venue fell silent, all captivated by the astonishing battle.

Because they also knew that the battle had now reached an intensely critical phase, possibly determining the victor in the next second!

Boom, Boom, Boom!

Gu Chen's hands danced, deploying the Moving Mountain Seal and Nine Heavens Thunder Movement simultaneously. Instantly, the area was enveloped with burgeoning winds and flashing lightning, a terrifying energy fluctuation pouring out like boulders shattering clouds and waves crashing against the shore, intensely extreme.

"Puff!"

The nine Great Powers of the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and Jiuying Clan vomited blood, defeated in an encounter, completely unable to match Gu Chen!

This scene caused countless people's pupils to shrink, horrified to the extreme!

Swoosh!

Gu Chen took a step forward, pursuing his victory, his palm forming a seal, holding a vast mountain as he stood, resembling a tyrant whose power could pull mountains and overshadow the world, directly smashing it down.

Boom!

After the nine Great Powers vomited blood, their complexions rapidly withered. At this moment, seeing Gu Chen's divine ability come crashing down, they were filled with panic, some even screaming out loud.

As Great Powers, being slain by a junior like Gu Chen today would truly leave them disgraced for eternity.

"Stop!"

At this moment, the two leaders from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and the Jiuying Clan could no longer stand by. They let out a cold shout, attempting to kill Gu Chen with a wave of force secretly sent their way.

"Do you really think I don't exist?"

Just then, Old Zhou's eyes turned icy as a terrifying fluctuation swept out from his aged body. Cracks filled the sky in an instant, and naturally, the attack targeted at Gu Chen was blocked by him.

At that moment, a powerful aura burst forth from the old man's body, enveloping all of Jitian City. The two leaders from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and the Jiuying Clan couldn't help but change their expressions.

Indeed, Old Zhou's strength was significantly greater than theirs.

"The rules have already been set, yet you desire to break them. As leaders, do you really have no integrity?" Cui Ji also let out a cold shout, his expression darkening.

"Who gave you the right to speak!" barked a leader from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty, his face looking particularly ugly.

They couldn't have imagined that even a union of ten Great Powers would be defeated, surpassing all their expectations.

Or perhaps, no one could have foreseen this scenario unfolding.

Even if Gu Chen was formidable, unrivaled across hundreds of regions, he was after all just a junior. Yet, to think that not even the Great Powers could match him.

"Hand over Gu Jiuge, or there will be no peace today!" shouted the leaders from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and the Jiuying Clan.

At that moment, the nine Great Powers, carrying the unconscious Jiunan, took advantage of the situation to rush back pale-faced and clenching their teeth to the sides of their leaders.

"A bunch of incompetents!" the two bellowed in anger, eyes itching with hatred as they glared at the ten before them.

If it weren't for their incompetence in capturing Gu Chen, how would they have ended up in such a plight?

The nine Great Powers bowed their heads, feeling incredibly embarrassed. Ten of them had made a move and were easily crushed by a junior—it was clear to them that their reputations were now thoroughly ruined.

Within the entire realm of the Heavens, it was likely that no one would want to stand with them anymore.

Whoosh!

Just then, the two leaders flicked their fingers, releasing the restrictions within the bodies of the ten Great Powers including Jiunan. In no time, their vitality climbed, and their injuries visibly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As for the unconscious Jiunan, he jolted awake almost immediately.

Seeing the expressions of those around him, he quickly realized what had transpired while he was unconscious, and his face involuntarily darkened.

Standing at a distance, Gu Chen watched the scene with a slight frown of his eyebrows.

Great Powers were indeed formidable. Although he was currently powerful, if he were to truly match his strength against the Great Powers, it was likely he would still not be their equal.

The gap between the Heavenly Realm and the Earth Realm was indeed substantial, and even Gu Chen found it difficult to cross at this stage.

"Qingyun Academy, you now have two choices: either go to war with us or hand over Gu Jiuge!" shouted the leader of the Jiuying Clan, his expression fiercely resolute.

The leader of the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty looked at Old Zhou and said gravely, "For just one student, you would initiate a conflict between three great forces, potentially even drawing the intervention of the strongest. Is it truly worth it, Qingyun Academy? You really need to think this through!"

However, no matter what the two said, Old Zhou remained unmoved, simply watching them coldly and saying, "If I don't show some tricks, do you two really think I don't exist? You want a war? Then let's have a war!"

Speaking thus, Old Zhou's eyes turned icy as he prepared to fight against the two leaders from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and the Jiuying Clan alone.

The two changed color, not expecting Qingyun Academy to risk a war to protect Gu Chen, even the invocation of the strongest had proved futile.

Boom!

Just as Old Zhou was about to make his move, suddenly, from the deepest part of Qingyun Academy, an incredibly terrifying fluctuation spread out, subtly shaking the entire realm. However, this fluctuation was very subtle, discernible only to leaders of their stature.

Even a Great Power like Cui Ji didn't notice the slightest thing.

"Has the headmaster left seclusion?!" At that moment, the once icy-eyed Old Zhou suddenly looked startled.
