Chapter 1206: Chapter 627: Certain Death
Some disciples who were too close were directly shaken to the point of spitting blood by this force, including several Core Disciples with Nascent Soul Realm cultivation.
"Hahahaha, with just you? You dare to say that if the sky falls you’ll hold it up? Utterly overestimating your abilities!" Qiankun Venerate King laughed while pointing at Gu Sheng, his face full of mockery.
The disciples around began to discuss.
An older Core Disciple showed deep fear in his eyes and said in a low voice: "This Qiankun Venerate King’s strength is too terrifying, I felt a mortal threat in his laughter. If he really makes a move against us, I’m afraid no one could resist."
Another former strong competitor for the position of Saint Heir, Ju Jiarong, also nodded, saying helplessly: "Indeed, although I consider myself not weak, facing Qiankun Venerate King, I must admit I am far from being his opponent.
This person is too powerful, we simply cannot contend against him."
Everyone’s expression changed drastically, feeling more and more frightened of Qiankun Venerate King’s power.
Qiankun Venerate King, hearing the discussions around him, felt even more triumphant.
He sneered, then reached out, and the Primordial Life and Death Sword appeared in his hand.
Holding the longsword, he pointed it viciously at Gu Sheng and said: "Gu Sheng, if today you hand over your fiancé to this Young Master, this Young Master will spare your sister’s life, otherwise, this Young Master will ensure she would rather die than live!"
Hearing Qiankun Venerate King’s words, Gu Sheng’s heart burned with anger. His eyes turned red, and the power within him began to surge wildly.
"Qiankun Venerate King, don’t push me too far!"
Gu Sheng roared, and his aura rose with it.
Qiankun Venerate King noticed that Gu Sheng’s physical strength seemed to have increased considerably.
"Hmph, haven’t seen you for a few days, and your physical body has improved somewhat, so what? In the face of absolute power, everything is futile."
Qiankun Venerate King spoke as he circulated the power within him, readying himself for Gu Sheng’s assault.
Gu Sheng did not respond to Qiankun Venerate King’s words but instead stepped forward.
Around his body, powerful spiritual power began to gather, and his aura reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.
This spiritual power continued to rise, directly breaking into the Earth Palace Realm.
"What?"
Qiankun Venerate King originally thought that Gu Sheng was just of Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, and even with an enhanced physical body, he would surely not be his match.
But for Gu Sheng to elevate his aura into the Earth Palace Realm, how could he not be shocked?
Gu Sheng’s momentum continued to rise, breaking straight into the early stage of the Earth Palace Realm.
Gu Sheng had only returned from the Holy Road for a short time, was in his early twenties, yet had reached such a realm, truly astonishing.
Moreover, his combat power was astounding, capable of subduing those considered unparalleled prodigies by the world within the same realm. This kind of talent and strength in the Xinghong Spirit Domain was unprecedented.
The elders of the Elder Hall, usually experienced and knowledgeable, looked at each other in dismay.
Daoist Xiushan and Daoist Tianji were beaming with pride. This was what they had expected. Gu Sheng leveraged the power of the forming Heavenly Thunder to achieve a breakthrough.
Recalling their fright back then on Divine Wind Thunder Mountain, they felt startled but also pleased with their sharp insight in recognizing Gu Sheng’s extraordinary nature early on.
Qiankun Venerate King, originally arrogant and conceited, was replaced by fright when he saw Gu Sheng break through to the Earth Palace Realm.
He couldn’t help but recall the painful experiences of being suppressed by Gu Sheng on the Holy Road, those memories leaving an indelible psychological shadow.
Only when his realm crushed Gu Sheng did he dare to engage with him. Now, with both in the same realm, his heart was filled with dread.
"Gu Sheng, you just got lucky, daring to be so arrogant!" Qiankun Venerate King shouted sternly but weakly, trying to cover his inner fear.
Gu Sheng glanced coldly at Qiankun Venerate King and replied flatly: "Qiankun Venerate King, today you shall know that even in the same realm, you are absolutely no match for me." As soon as the words fell, both figures moved.
Qiankun Venerate King was the first to launch an attack, the Primordial Life and Death Sword in his hand raised high. With a swing, a world-ending Sword Qi shrieked out. Rolling Demonic Qi gushed from the sword, transforming into countless ferocious demons, clawing and scrambling toward Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng coldly snorted, utterly fearless. His five fingers quickly clenched into a fist, and the boundless spiritual power and domineering physical strength gathered on the fist.
Above his head, the Ancient Reincarnation Bell suddenly appeared. This grand bell emitted an ancient and powerful aura, bursting forth with unparalleled defensive momentum.
Gu Sheng used the Ancient Reincarnation Bell as a shield to fend off the demon’s attacks, while with his fist as a spear, he boldly charged at Qiankun Venerate King.
Both of their Magic Artifacts collided first, creating a powerful storm centered at the point of impact, quickly spreading outward.
Gu Sheng’s fist pounded firmly on the Primordial Life and Death Sword, and with a "boom," the sword’s Sword Qi exploded, turning into a rain of swords that shot out in all directions.
The sword rain was sharp, carving deep ravines wherever it landed. Though fierce, the rain of swords was unable to cause severe injury to Gu Sheng, only tearing his clothes and skin, leaving shallow scratches.
Qiankun Venerate King was forced back by Gu Sheng’s immense power, retreating over a dozen steps, each step crushing the ground and sending fragments flying.
