Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

He feared not even two martial arts grandmasters, let alone the one before him now!

Feeling the strength of Gu Chen's blow, Wu Xin frowned slightly, surprised that Gu Chen was able to fight with increasing vigor and without showing the slightest sign of exhaustion.

This truly astonished her, as even grandmasters shouldn't possess such formidable regenerative power.

"There's no taking back an arrow once it's been released from the bow. Don't let me find out who you are, or I swear it will be relentless until death!" Gu Chen's eyes blazed as he spoke coldly.

Somehow, upon hearing Gu Chen's words, Wu Xin felt a shiver in her heart, and at this moment, she began to think about retreating.

She knew that she would never be Gu Chen's match if she stayed any longer.

With that thought, Wu Xin did not hesitate; she turned and fled.

"Think you can escape?"

Gu Chen snorted coldly, activating the Great Sun Divine Gang, and immediately an intense light emerged, making him appear as if he was standing within the radiance of a proud sun.

Boom!

A beam of light shot explosively from Gu Chen's fist, dazzling and overwhelmingly powerful, charging forward through the void.

"Puh!"

From a distance, Wu Xin was struck by the punch, immediately spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, and her face hidden beneath the mask instantly paled.

She dared not hesitate, mustering all her strength in an attempt to leave this place.

Just as Gu Chen was about to give chase, he sensed a change in the qi of Xue Ling on the other side.

Gu Chen knitted his brows and thought for a moment, then he let Wu Xin go and turned to aid Xue Ling instead.

At this moment, Xue Ling was engaged in fierce battle with a grandmaster from the Black Sky Sect who had undergone blood exchange three times. The grandmaster of the Black Sky Sect had summoned the shadow of an evil god, which boosted his strength significantly. He was actually overpowering Xue Ling.

Blood trickled from the corner of Xue Ling's mouth; his expression was grim as he never imagined he would be no match for this warrior from the Black Sky Sect.

Both having undergone blood exchange three times, there was still a disparity in strength among the warriors.

Suddenly, the faces of both Xue Ling and the grandmaster from the Black Sky Sect changed as they sensed the radiant, sun-like qi descending upon them, and it was none other than Gu Chen.

The moment Gu Chen arrived, without a word, he lunged at the warrior from the Black Sky Sect and performed the True Yang Sword Finger technique.

Shh!

Propelled by the Great Sun Divine Gang, the True Yang Sword Finger, though only at the elementary level of Superior Martial Skills, still possessed impressive might.

However, the warrior from the Black Sky Sect was a grandmaster who had undergone blood exchange three times, went through three metamorphoses, and whose cultivation was exceedingly pure and profound. Behind him, the shadow of the fearsome evil god extended a large hand, and with a loud bang, the sword qi released by Gu Chen instantly shattered.

"What a bunch of trash!"

The grandmaster from the Black Sky Sect cursed, fully aware of what had transpired on Gu Chen's side through their connected qi. Even he had not expected Gu Chen to be able to defeat three grandmasters single-handedly, killing one in the process.

He knew that their plan had failed miserably, as they ultimately could not kill Gu Chen.

But with Hei Xun dying at the hands of Gu Chen, it was very hard for him to just walk away without a fight.

"Since you killed Hei Xun, then I will slay you!"

A fierce light flashed in the eyes of the grandmaster from the Black Sky Sect. With the shadow of the evil god behind him, he brought down his hand from above and the air instantly exploded, resounding with thunder.

He believed that alone, he was enough to kill everyone present, including the commanders from the Jing Tian Department.

After all, he had undergone blood exchange three times, and the three grandmasters who had fought Gu Chen previously and exchanged blood twice were easily within his power to kill, so this man had absolute confidence in his own strength.

Thud!

But in that moment, Gu Chen countered him with his physical body, throwing a punch that caused the shadow of the evil god behind the grandmaster to tremble violently.

"Hmm?!" Enjoy new adventures at empire

The grandmaster from the Black Sky Sect was shocked, as were Xue Ling and everyone else present.

They thought they had overestimated Gu Chen's strength, but now they realized that Gu Chen's physical body was not much inferior to theirs, even after their blood exchange three times.

"Light of the Evil God!"

The grandmaster from the Black Sky Sect let out a low roar. Regardless of the strength of his physical body being comparable to his, his cultivation was certainly enough to crush Gu Chen.

Hiss hiss hiss!

One after another, dark black beams of light shone down from the shadow of the evil god behind him. At this moment, Gu Chen activated the Vajra Invincibility Divine Skill, and his body instantly turned a pale golden color, including his hair.

Vajra Invincibility, the ultimate yang and the ultimate firmness. Once this divine skill was in motion, it could be called the absolute defense!

Gu Chen, in this state, seemed like a golden war deity, as if his entire being was cast from gold. Those beams of the Evil God's Light that hit him only caused him to stagger back but could not injure him.

"Lord Xue, what are you dawdling for!" Gu Chen, seeing Xue Ling dazed, could not help but shout firmly.

"Huh?"

Snapped out of his trance by Gu Chen's call, Xue Ling joined the fight with renewed vigor, inspired by Gu Chen's bravery.

Facing two opponents, the warrior from the Black Sky Sect quickly fell into a disadvantageous position. Xue Ling took the lead in the attack, and with Gu Chen providing support, even he could not find a way to defeat both Xue Ling and Gu Chen.

After all, Gu Chen's physical body was more than a match for his and could withstand his attacks, while Xue Ling was not much weaker than him. With Gu Chen's assistance, it was he who was now under duress.

"Hmph!"

After more than a dozen rounds, the Black Sky Sect's warrior let out a cold snort. He transformed into a black streak of light and sped away into the distance.

Seeing this, both Gu Chen and Xue Ling did not give chase, knowing that the fight, if continued, would only be a stalemate. The fact that the opponent could flee demonstrated that they had won this battle.

Xue Ling looked at Gu Chen, his eyes still full of disbelief. He could hardly believe the extent of Gu Chen's strength, and he also inwardly lamented, realizing even Wang Jiuzhi had misjudged Gu Chen.

The strength Gu Chen possessed now left him in no need of protection. Even facing a grandmaster who had undergone blood exchange three times, Gu Chen could escape unscathed if he could not overcome them.

"Lord Xue..."

"You need not call me 'Lord Xue' anymore," Xue Ling said with a wry smile, shaking his head. It was laughable that he had always held onto his pride, thinking of Gu Chen as just a junior.

Today, he truly understood what a true dragon was.

If Da Xia were to have such a heroic figure, as long as Gu Chen grew in strength, he would surely be able to bring peace to the realm and tranquility to all nine provinces.

"Even the Emperor of Da Xia during his early years could not have had such talent as Gu Chen..." Xue Ling murmured. In everyone's eyes in Da Xia, the current emperor was divinely gifted and a demigod, a figure they believed unparalleled since ancient times.

But now, as Xue Ling watched Gu Chen, he had this feeling that perhaps, Gu Chen could, like the Emperor, support the heaven of the nine provinces on his own one day.

Meanwhile, elsewhere, Wu Xin, despite her injuries, hurried back to the border at top speed to report the news to the Marquis of Pingxi.

"Lord Marquis, your subordinate is incompetent, the mission has failed," she said.
