Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

It was precisely for this reason that the Red Cloud Sect had purchased three protective talismans from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty to ensure safety.

"Who is he, who exactly is this kid!" For a moment, the elder from the Red Cloud Sect's eyes turned red with rage, unmatched fury filling him. Seeing this, the other forces shook their heads one after another, some casting sympathetic glances towards the people of the Red Cloud Sect.

"It was a young man, around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, handsome and refined in appearance, with an upright stature..." Soon, under the persistent questioning of the Red Cloud Sect elder, the trio described Gu Chen's appearance in detail.

"A twenty-six or twenty-seven-year-old in the Cave Heaven Realm?!" After hearing this, the Human Clan forces, such as the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, and the different races like the Tiankui Clan and Blood Orchid Clan, all felt a shock to their cores.

This was enough to put him on par with the strongest monsters of their younger generation!

It is known that throughout the Gray Domain, there are not many young Cave Heaven Realm cultivators to this day, and now suddenly one appears, impossible not to draw attention.

"Could it be, this person is the rumored Gu Jiuge?" an elder speculated.

"That's possible," the elders nodded in agreement.

But at that moment, a Great Power level individual who had been silent spoke up, "As for who it really is, we cannot conclude definitively yet. It might be a Cave Heaven Realm expert who has concealed their age."

"Elder Zhou makes a sound point." Seeing a Great Power speak, the crowd nodded in agreement.

At this moment, only the people of the Red Cloud Sect were injured. The elder's head felt dizzy, his world spinning as an entire generation came crashing down. What future lay in store for the Red Cloud Sect now?!

No matter what, a Cave Heaven Realm expert was always worthy of alert. It could be said that the three from the Red Cloud Sect had been too careless, mistaking a fierce tiger for a harmless sheep, and now they could only swallow the bitter pill they had given themselves.

Actually, the one who suffered the most was the elder from the Red Cloud Sect because it was he who had ordered his disciples to act as such, and they had followed his command.

With this thought, the elder felt even worse, his heart bleeding. This was an unbearable burden!

"The Red Cloud Sect is indeed in a tragic state. The leading figure of their younger generation was killed in the lower realms. They thought they could help their disciples rise again by relying on this Cave Heaven blessed land, but they encountered such an incident. It seems their next generation will have a hard time, lacking strong successors," someone murmured from the shadows.

At this time, the elder from the Red Cloud Sect, along with those three Cave Heaven Realm cultivators, all had ashen faces, devoid of any color, the elder's lips trembling with anger.

"Kill, I want him dead, he must be killed!" Suddenly, the Red Cloud Sect's elder's eyes turned bloodshot as he bellowed like a crazed beast.

Seeing this scene, the others frowned, knowing that the Red Cloud Sect was about to make an all-or-nothing gamble.

"I'm going to send in stronger people!" the elder of the Red Cloud Sect suddenly looked up, gazing towards those Great Power level individuals seated high above like the sun in the sky.

Such decisions could only be made by them.

Those Great Powers frowned slightly, but remembering that it was not their own sect's disciples affected, they nodded their heads, permitting the Red Cloud Sect's "rule breach."

"We will go too, for revenge!" At this moment, the three Cave Heaven Realm cultivators from the Red Cloud Sect said with faces full of hatred.

The Red Cloud Sect's elder looked at them with a cold expression, not uttering a word. These three needed to go in, as they had to lead the way and identify the perpetrator.

"Wu Xiu!"

Following the Red Cloud Sect elder's call, a middle-aged man with a ferocious face appeared from among the crowd belonging to the Red Cloud Sect and made his way over, bowing in salute.

Wu Xiu, the strongest in the Cave Heaven Realm under one hundred years old in the Red Cloud Sect, had condensed a full one hundred and ninety-six heavenly meridians. His talent was also considered decent—not as good as the level of a Holy Son, but there was still some hope he would reach the Earth realm summit in the future.

The true completion of the Cave Heaven Realm involves condensing three hundred and sixty-five heavenly meridians, which is not achievable by just anyone. Only the most exceptional monstrous geniuses of a domain have the chance of success, such as Gu Yan, Xue Ningshan from the Lingdao Mountain, and the strongest of the younger generation from the four major different races: Tiankui Clan, Blood Orchid Clan, Soaring Snake Clan, and the Jiuying Clan.

The rest, even Fu Ling of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect and He Lianying of Mount Tianzhu, have great difficulty reaching this goal.

Anyone who can condense more than one hundred and eight heavenly meridians in the Cave Heaven Realm is considered to have some talent.

Wu Xiu, who was exactly one hundred years old this year and had condensed one hundred and ninety-six heavenly meridians, was also quite strong in the Cave Heaven Realm, enough to handle the young generation in their twenties.

"Even if that person is really like me, having hidden their age, I still have confidence in coping," Wu Xiu said, understanding the details of the incident.

Known for his vicious and ruthless nature, he stopped at nothing to achieve his goals. Learning about Gu Chen's deeds, a blood-thirsty light flashed in his eyes.

"Open!"

At this moment, the Great Powers seated above the heavens joined forces and sent Wu Xiu, who had just turned a hundred years old, into the realm.

In fact, this was somewhat against the rules, but fortunately, the excess was not much, and based on the intelligence provided, the Great Powers accurately positioned Wu Xiu, as well as the three Cave Heaven Realm practitioners from the Red Cloud Sect, to that very spot.

At this instant, inside the secret realm, Gu Chen, having slain all the members of the Red Cloud Sect, left behind a field of mutilated corpses. The remaining people were terrified and dared not fight him for the opportunity any longer.

Seeing that Gu Chen paid them no mind, they hurriedly fled in panic.

While Gu Chen continued to observe the formations within the valley through his Heavenly Eye, although he was extremely powerful, he was not impetuous or reckless. After all, this place originated from the previous epoch, and who knows, there might be hidden dangers difficult to detect lurking in the shadows.

"Hmm?"

Just then, Gu Chen keenly sensed ripples of spatial fluctuations, followed by the sudden appearance of four figures in the area.

It was the group of four from the Red Cloud Sect led by Wu Xiu.

When Wu Xiu saw the dismembered remains of the Red Cloud Sect disciples scattered all around, his expression grew even more ferocious.

"Brother Wu, it's him. Please make your move and capture this vile creature!" the three Cave Heaven Realm cultivators who nearly fell to Gu Chen's blade cried out angrily.

Gu Chen hadn't expected that the Red Cloud Sect would dare to send more people to their deaths. It seemed that fate truly tied him to them in deep and intricate ways.

"Die!"

Once he had identified his target, Wu Xiu did not hesitate to attack, intent on killing Gu Chen on the spot.

He unleashed the powerful techniques of the Red Cloud Sect, and in an instant, the sky turned red, the powerful winds buffeted about, and there were even wails of agony as one vengeful spirit after another appeared.

"Hmm?!"

Seeing this scene, a chill flashed in Gu Chen's eyes. He hadn't expected this man to be so cruel, refining other people's remnant souls to fight for him. This was an immense torment.

"Become a part of my Soul Wrecking Array!" Wu Xiu bellowed, drawing upon the tremendous power of heaven and earth through the 196 energy channels in his body to strike at Gu Chen.

Crack!

However, in the next moment, a thunderous boom resounded. Gu Chen extended a finger and with a gentle tap, scintillating sparks of electricity darted forth, turning into a chain that burst through Wu Xiu's techniques.

Immediately, Wu Xiu's face registered shock and disbelief as he watched the chain of lightning pierce through his chest and string the four of them together like beads, the smell of charred flesh and blood wafting in the air.

"Ahh…"

Soon after, screams of agony filled the air as the glow of electricity flashed on their bodies along with high heat. This was a severe pain that would torment them slowly to death.

Thereafter, Gu Chen turned his head and continued to study the grand formation in the valley, no longer paying any attention to the screams or the life and death of Wu Xiu and his group.

This time, without any amulets to protect them, even gods would find it hard to save them.

Meanwhile, outside, as time passed, the elder from the Red Cloud Sect felt increasingly uneasy seeing Wu Xiu and his group not returning.

Eventually, even the Great Powers seated in the firmament frowned, their hearts stirred with unease. Could it be that Wu Xiu and his companions had all perished within?

One should know, at a hundred years old and with 196 energy channels formed within his body, Wu Xiu was no weakling among those who had entered this Cave Heaven blessed land.

If someone managed to slay Wu Xiu, and if that someone were truly a young prodigy, then that would be most intriguing.

"Could it really be that legendary Gu Jiuge?"

At this moment, even those Great Powers contemplated in their hearts. It made no sense for a nameless Cave Heaven Realm practitioner to suddenly emerge out of the blue.

At this thought, even these beings, whose hearts were as steady as rocks that had stood for tens of thousands of years, were greatly shocked.

If there really was a young successor who could achieve this much so soon after stepping into the Cave Heaven Realm, that would be truly astonishing!

The Great Powers couldn't help but exchange glances, their hearts echoing with shock.
