Chapter 1174: Chapter 611: The Goddess Arrives in Splendor
Although the Qiankun Venerate King dared not kill the Tianxuan Divine Girl, injuring her achieved a similar effect.
No one present dared interfere with his fight with Gu Sheng, and given the strength gap between him and Gu Sheng, as long as no one intervened, Gu Sheng was destined to lose.
Bixuan hurried over. She saw the injured Tianxuan Divine Girl on the ground and rushed forward to check on her. Only after confirming that the foundation of the Tianxuan Divine Girl was not damaged did she breathe a sigh of relief.
She stood up and glared coldly at the Qiankun Venerate King, not concealing the hostility in her eyes.
However, the Qiankun Venerate King ignored Bixuan’s gaze, and after dealing with the Tianxuan Divine Girl, he focused all his attention on Gu Sheng.
The Qiankun Venerate King greedily eyed the Ancient Reincarnation Bell above Gu Sheng’s head, licking his lips and scheming.
"This Ancient Reincarnation Bell is indeed a treasure. If I can bring it back to the Purple Spirit Realm, I will certainly make a significant contribution before my father. And Gu Sheng’s physical body must be taken back for my father to study."
Thinking of this, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of the Qiankun Venerate King’s mouth.
Gu Sheng looked at the Qiankun Venerate King with deep regret. "I should have killed this Qiankun Venerate King on the Holy Road to avoid trouble. But if I had killed him, what would the people of the Tianlan Sacred Land do?"
With the Ancient Reincarnation Bell above his head, enveloped in Sword Qi and mighty physical strength, he charged at the Qiankun Venerate King once again. Close combat was his only chance now.
The Qiankun Venerate King snorted coldly as he saw Gu Sheng charging at him. "Hmph, you still want close combat? Last time you had an advantage, but this time you won’t succeed."
He swung the Longsword in his hand, shooting strands of Sword Qi toward Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng wielded his weapon, trying to fend off the Sword Qi, but there were too many and too dense. He could barely hold on.
His momentum gradually waned under the pressure of the Qiankun Venerate King, his injuries worsened, and his breath weakened. Meanwhile, the Qiankun Venerate King’s offensive remained relentless.
Gu Sheng remembered the Vermilion Bird Tear Stone on him. He quickly took it out and began to absorb its energy to replenish his Spiritual Power.
But he dared not fully activate the mental method, fearing that exposing the powerful mental method would bring more trouble.
He struggled to absorb energy while enduring the Sword Qi of the Qiankun Venerate King. Each strike of Sword Qi on his body caused intense pain, and eventually, he couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
With that mouthful of blood, the world before Gu Sheng’s eyes became hazy.
The Qiankun Venerate King seized the opportunity to intensify his attack, sending a powerful Sword Qi that knocked Gu Sheng flying.
Gu Sheng’s body crashed into the ground, forming a bottomless pit. At this moment, Gu Sheng’s breath was extremely weak.
Gongsun Yue, seeing Gu Sheng showing signs of falling, couldn’t help but shout loudly.
Upon hearing this voice, Gu Sheng struggled to open his heavy eyelids. Instinctively, he controlled the Ancient Reincarnation Bell, aiming it at the Life and Death Sword of the Qiankun Venerate King.
With a "boom," the Ancient Reincarnation Bell struck the Life and Death Sword, its powerful force blasting the Qiankun Venerate King away.
But Gu Sheng, due to the backlash, further aggravated his injuries, spewing a stream of blood as his body crashed back to the ground.
The Qiankun Venerate King steadied himself in mid-air, looked at the fallen Gu Sheng, and laughed loudly. "Gu Sheng, you will eventually die by my hand. You should have killed me back then instead of hesitating." With that, he excitedly charged toward the pit.
The Qiankun Venerate King rushed into the pit, dispersing the surrounding dust, and saw the barely alive Gu Sheng at the bottom. He walked toward Gu Sheng step by step, a more menacing smile spreading across his face.
The reactions of those around were varied. The people of the Six Great Holy Lands were delighted, as they had always seen Gu Sheng as a thorn in their side. With the Qiankun Venerate King eliminating Gu Sheng, it was undoubtedly the perfect outcome for them.
"Pathetic!"
Qiankun Venerate King mocked, "I gave you a chance before, yet you didn’t dare kill me, and now you’ve ended up like this. How do you feel about that?"
He walked leisurely to Gu Sheng’s side and stomped heavily on Gu Sheng’s blood-stained face, giving a triumphant, mocking laugh.
Gu Sheng’s body shuddered violently as he used all his strength to struggle, trying to stand from this humiliating position.
But as soon as he moved, his throat filled with bitterness, resulting in a bout of violent coughing, uncontrollably spewing mouthfuls of blood, causing him to slump down heavily again.
The Qiankun Venerate King’s laughter grew even louder.
Gu Sheng, filled with unwillingness, said, "If you have the ability, have a fair duel with me!"
The Qiankun Venerate King was momentarily stunned, then snorted coldly: "Fair? Are you joking with me?"
He knew clearly that in the same realm, he was no match for Gu Sheng, so how could he possibly give him a chance for fair competition?
Thinking this, he increased his foot’s pressure, watching the blood flow from Gu Sheng’s face, causing his long-held anger to dissipate somewhat.
"Hmph, since you’ve fallen into my hands, don’t think of escaping again."
Qiankun Venerate King viciously said, "Hand over the legacy you obtained on the Holy Road, and I might consider sparing your life."
Lying on the ground, Gu Sheng heard this and pulled a mocking smile: "Legacy? It’s not something you can just hand over."
The Qiankun Venerate King immediately grew anxious, fearing that the legacy was not a treasure that could easily be given away. "What do you mean?"
He asked angrily, "Don’t play tricks with me!"
"This legacy is the secret to becoming immortal," Gu Sheng said unhurriedly.
