Chapter 1209: Chapter 628: Insignificant (Part 2)
Our side had almost no chance of winning, subconsciously placing all hope in the mysterious Taiji Hunyuan Heavenly Book.
He silently prayed in his heart, hoping that this legendary mystical book could play a role at the critical moment and reverse the situation.
However, fate did not seem to be on his side. The attack of the Supreme Immortal Sect Master was unstoppable. Gu Sheng had no strength to resist and was struck heavily by this powerful force, severely injured and sent flying.
He traced an arc in the air, finally crashing into a thick stone pillar with a dull thud, then fell helplessly to the ground, his body curled up as blood continued to spill from his mouth.
The Supreme Immortal Sect Master stared at the seriously injured Gu Sheng, feeling that he was no longer a threat, and left him to the Qiankun Venerate King.
The Qiankun Venerate King was so excited that his whole body trembled. He couldn’t wait to step forward and rush towards Gu Sheng.
The remaining power of the Supreme Immortal Sect Master enveloped everyone’s heads. This immense pressure made everyone present feel suffocated, no one dared to make a move lightly.
The Tianlan Saint Mother stood aside, her eyes full of reluctance as she closed them. Gu Sheng was a rare talent, and she had always thought highly of him.
But facing such a powerful existence as the Supreme Immortal Sect Master, if she intervened, the price to pay would be unbearable, so despite her heart full of conflict and helplessness, she could only choose to remain silent.
Wang Zhu, however, stared excitedly at the doomed Gu Sheng. The Second Elder and the Seventh Elder were equally excited, having previously worried about Gu Sheng’s marriage credentials, fearing he might bring unpredictability to Tianlan Sacred Land.
Seeing Qiankun Venerate King summon the Supreme Immortal Sect Master, forcing Gu Sheng into a desperate situation, they felt reassured, believing their concerns could be dismissed.
The Second Elder quietly transmitted to the Seventh Elder, saying, "Once Gu Sheng is dead, we must quickly think of a way to eliminate those around him, especially his sister Gu Yu, who remains a potential threat."
The Seventh Elder glanced at Wang Zhu, contemplating sending Wang Zhu to carry out this task, as Wang Zhu had always harbored resentment towards Gu Sheng and would surely be diligent.
Qiankun Venerate King walked step by step into the Elder Hall. Looking at Gu Sheng lying on the ground, his smile grew brighter, filled with pride and mockery.
Gu Sheng endured the intense pain, spat out a mouthful of bloody froth, and taunted, "Qiankun Venerate King, you can only rely on outsiders, using your high cultivation to win. What kind of skill is that!"
Qiankun Venerate King laughed coldly and responded, "Hmph, what right do you have to criticize me? Don’t you also rely on women to thrive in this Tianlan Sacred Land!"
Saying this, he lifted his foot and mercilessly stomped on Gu Sheng’s hands, a series of cracking sounds followed, and Gu Sheng’s hands were brutally broken. Gu Sheng let out a cry of pain.
A clear voice from outside the hall called, "Brother!"
Gu Sheng raised his head to see his sister, Gu Yu, summoning the courage to step into the hall. At that moment, Gu Sheng’s eyes turned red, his heart filled with worry and guilt. His sister entering meant she would undoubtedly be in great danger.
Qiankun Venerate King, seeing how much Gu Sheng cared for Gu Yu, was tempted by the malicious thought of tormenting her. He extended his hand, a surge of black magic power gathered, forming a gigantic demon hand, reaching for Gu Yu. The demon hand moved swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, Gu Yu was captured before him.
Qiankun Venerate King displayed a cruel smile, tearing open Gu Yu’s right sleeve, revealing her white, jade-like arm.
Seeing this scene, Gu Sheng’s anger erupted to its peak. His severely injured body, miraculously, stood up. His eyes reddened, disregarding everything as he charged towards Qiankun Venerate King.
Qiankun Venerate King obviously hadn’t expected Gu Sheng’s outburst and was caught off guard. Gu Sheng collided with him, using his body directly.
With tremendous force, Qiankun Venerate King was sent rolling back several times, losing a few teeth from his mouth. Meanwhile, Gu Sheng, due to the backlash, coughed up another mouthful of blood, worsening his injuries.
But Gu Sheng didn’t care about his injuries at all, forcibly enduring the pain, he quickly rushed to his sister’s side, shielding Gu Yu behind him.
Gu Sheng, heavily wounded, his clothes dyed red with blood, was on the verge of collapsing. He summoned strength from who knows where, got up, and charged at Qiankun Venerate King. Qiankun Venerate King was unprepared and was knocked flying, landing heavily on the ground.
"Cough, cough..." Gu Sheng, barely supporting himself, stood in front of his sister. Though teetering, he protected her.
Qiankun Venerate King, angrily got up from the ground, his eyes bloodshot, glaring at Gu Sheng. He couldn’t believe this severely injured boy could unleash such powerful strength, knocking him away.
"You brat, looking for death!" Qiankun Venerate King roared, charging at Gu Sheng. His heart was full of unwillingness, as a genius of the Supreme Immortal Sect, famed in the Purple Spirit Realm, being humiliated by someone so gravely wounded.
Gu Sheng, watching Qiankun Venerate King charge, showed no fear in his eyes, as he met him head-on again. Another loud crash, Qiankun Venerate King was knocked back. This time, after landing, he couldn’t get up for a long while.
"No! This is impossible!" Qiankun Venerate King shouted unwillingly, unable to accept that his body was inferior to this severely injured person.
"Hmph, he is the Heavenly Saint Body, ranked number one in the Purple Spirit Realm, his body is powerful, you lost justifiably."
The Heavenly Saint Body, the strongest Sacred Body in the Purple Spirit Realm, appearing only once in history, securing the top position among the Ten Great Sacred Bodies. Unexpectedly, this heavily injured boy is the Heavenly Saint Body.
Qiankun Venerate King, after a brief shock, felt a strong desire to possess it. He looked at Gu Sheng, his eyes filled with greed.
He thought, if he could seize Gu Sheng’s Heavenly Saint Body, wouldn’t he become the strongest in the Purple Spirit Realm? The more he thought, the more excited he became, even fantasizing about the scene of him commanding the winds and rains in the Purple Spirit Realm after possessing the Heavenly Saint Body.
"Father, I want to seize his Heavenly Saint Body, you must have a way to help me, right?" Qiankun Venerate King excitedly ran to the Supreme Immortal Sect Master, looking at him with anticipation.
The Supreme Immortal Sect Master looked at his son, eyes showing hesitation.
"Body seizing is extremely risky, even a slight mistake could result in complete annihilation. Have you considered this carefully?" the Supreme Immortal Sect Master said.
Qiankun Venerate King nodded.
"Father, I have thought it through. I must have his body; only then can I secure my position as the number one genius in the Purple Spirit Realm," Qiankun Venerate King said.
The Supreme Immortal Sect Master sighed inwardly, seeing his son’s determined eyes. His son had always been proud and ambitious, once set on something, it was hard to change his mind.
"Alright, since you’ve decided, I’ll help you this time," the Supreme Immortal Sect Master said helplessly.
Qiankun Venerate King, hearing his father’s agreement, leaped up with excitement.
"Great, thank you, Father!" Qiankun Venerate King exclaimed excitedly.
Meanwhile, Gu Sheng, hearing their conversation, was filled with anger and despair. Facing such a powerful being as the Supreme Immortal Sect Master, he had almost no ability to resist. But he still braced himself, preparing to meet the impending crisis.
The Supreme Immortal Sect Master walked step by step towards Gu Sheng, each step he took, his aura strengthened.
Gu Sheng watched the approaching Supreme Immortal Sect Master, the pressure in his heart growing heavier. He felt like a lamb awaiting slaughter, facing a powerful Hunter, with no power to fight back.
"Boy, today is your death day," the Supreme Immortal Sect Master said coldly. He raised his hand, the gigantic hand of Fatian Xiangdi descending from the sky, reaching for Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng, looking at the enormous hand, was filled with unwillingness. He tried to channel his mental method to resist. But his strength, in front of the Supreme Immortal Sect Master, seemed so small, so insignificant.
