Facing the dense sword rain that blotted out the sky like a swarm of locusts, the counterattack of Crazy Blade and Furious Sword—which appeared fierce but was actually hollow—was as futile as a mantis trying to stop a chariot!
In an instant, two blood-curdling wails rang out as their killer moves were utterly crushed in the blink of an eye. They were heavily injured and left powerless to resist—their bodies looked as if they had been sliced by countless blades simultaneously, becoming a bloody mess of mangled flesh within moments. Finally, both fell into pools of blood, unable to move a muscle, with even the last shred of Life Qi completely gone... Just then, a dark shadow flashed by like a ghost, and in the next moment, Liu Chen's figure abruptly appeared beside Niu Lang and Broken Wolf. He first extended his right hand and gave a light wave, sending two faint rays of light shooting from his fingertips to accurately sink into the foreheads of Niu Lang and Broken Wolf. Immediately after, two translucent souls drifted out from their bodies and flew straight into a small, exquisite Soul Bottle Gu held in Liu Chen's hand.
After finishing this, Liu Chen expressionlessly tossed the lifeless corpses of Niu Lang and Broken Wolf into his immortal aperture.
With the deaths of Niu Lang and Broken Wolf, the immortal apertures that originally belonged to them naturally fell under Liu Chen's control and were swallowed by him in an instant, leaving nothing behind.
At the same time, all the dao marks they had cultivated throughout their lives and their deep accumulated cultivation merged into Liu Chen's body. His cultivation Realm underwent a qualitative leap in an instant, successfully breaking through to the Rank Seven Realm, making him a truly top-tier powerhouse in the entire Gu World!
After his cultivation had completely stabilized, Liu Chen took a deep breath as the spiritual power within him surged like a tide. Without hesitation, he once again activated Familiar Face!
He instantly changed his aura, returning once more to the Rank Six Gu Immortal, Sword Demon.
As the killer move was completed, the powerful aura that had previously enveloped the surroundings suddenly vanished without a trace. It was as if nothing had ever happened, though Liu Chen knew in his heart that this brief but thrilling battle had come to an end.
Immediately after, he quickly retracted the previously arranged Battlefield Killing Move to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
In just a few moments, the battle was settled. Liu Chen did not dare to delay for a second and immediately activated an Investigative killer move again.
Through the eyes of countless paper kites, he could perceive any movement in the surrounding environment. After confirming that no one else was paying attention to this place, Liu Chen finally summoned the Desolate beast Flying Blue Whale from his immortal aperture.
Mounting the back of the blue whale, Liu Chen steered it toward the depths of Green Wave Blessed Land. His destination was the final key battlefield in this blessed land, as well as the focal point where countless Gu Immortals were competing and slaughtering most fiercely—the location of the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, Square Inch Mountain!
At this moment, Dongfang Changfan had also rushed back to the blessed land with lightning speed. He had now successfully recovered to his terrifying former strength of the Rank Seven Peak Realm.
He was seen lightly supporting the Heaven and Earth Secret Realm, Square Inch Mountain, with one arm, his figure as elusive as a ghost. Beside him were two capable helpers—the Little Man Valley Immortal and Elder Can Yang—working together in perfect coordination. Facing the menacing crowd of Demonic Path Gu Immortals, the three of them showed no fear at all; instead, they consistently held the upper hand with their exquisite combat power.
"Old man Changfan, look! These are all your Dongfang Tribe clansmen!"
The Demonic Path Gu Immortals let out a burst of hideous and terrifying laughter, their voices echoing through the entire space, making one's hair stand on end.
They had become unscrupulous to the extreme; in order to completely disrupt Dongfang Changfan's state of mind, they did not hesitate to go on a killing spree among the Dongfang Tribe clansmen living in Green Wave Blessed Land.
In an instant, the scent of blood filled the air, staining the earth red; countless corpses lay on the ground, a shocking sight to behold.
"You beasts! You all deserve to die!" Dongfang Changfan's eyes burned with fire as he roared in anger.
He could not accept what was happening before his eyes; these Mortals who were dying were his own Bloodline kin!
However, just then, several wills suddenly erupted from within Dongfang Changfan's body. Those other Dongfang Tribe Gu Immortals who had been forcibly suppressed in the depths of his mind could no longer contain their anger and grief, and they began to struggle desperately to regain control of the body.
Clearly, this move by the Demonic Path Gu Immortals had struck the very point that the Gu Immortal wills in Dongfang Changfan's mind cared about most. These Gu Immortal wills wished they could rush out immediately and tear these cruel and heartless enemies to pieces with their own hands.
"Hahaha... Good! It seems this really has some effect! Quick, quick, quick! Release all the Dongfang clansmen you've captured in your immortal apertures and kill them! If anyone dares to disobey my order, don't blame me for being unkind! Rest assured, if this operation succeeds, I will compensate you for all your losses! So, don't make me solve the problem myself!" Nearby, the Rank Seven Gu Immortal Zizai Scholar sneered as he issued the command, while simultaneously glaring fiercely at the other surrounding Demonic Path Gu Immortals.
For Demonic Path Gu Immortals, the clansmen of the Dongfang Tribe were also extremely precious resources that could be sold for a massive amount of wealth. Therefore, many Demonic Path Gu Immortals had long since set their sights on them, calculating how to make a fortune from the situation.
Demonic Path Gu Immortals had always been self-centered and selfish people; asking them to hand over the Dongfang Tribe clansmen and property they had plundered was practically more painful than cutting off their own flesh!
However, because Zizai Scholar was usually notorious for his wickedness, these Demonic Path Gu Immortals simply did not dare to provoke him at this moment, fearing that a slight mistake would bring disaster upon themselves.
Consequently, they were forced to release large numbers of Dongfang Tribe Mortals who had been imprisoned in their immortal apertures, allowing these poor people to fall straight down from high in the sky.
One after another, agonizing screams rang out as those defenseless Dongfang Tribe Mortals were instantly smashed to pieces, becoming a bloody and unbearable mess!
"Ahhh—" Witnessing this tragedy, Dongfang Changfan was heartbroken, and the several consciousnesses in his mind began to fight each other fiercely.
At the same time, his originally sharp offensive came to an abrupt halt due to his emotional fluctuations; he even tried to use some killer moves in hopes of saving those Dongfang Tribe clansmen who were suffering.
Unfortunately, things did not go as planned. Although experts like Elder Can Yang and the Little Man Valley Immortal were still guarding the scene, they were ultimately outnumbered when facing such a large and fierce number of Demonic Path Gu Immortals, and Dongfang Changfan inevitably suffered heavy injuries.
"It's truly better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early!" When Liu Chen arrived on the Flying Blue Whale, he happened to witness everything that was happening, and he couldn't help but think to himself. A flash of cunning crossed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Liu Chen waved his hands, instantly summoning a pitch-black demonic sword from the Void Realm that emitted a sinister, cold aura. Then, without hesitation, he unleashed the Sword Demon's unique Immortal Path Killer Move—Demonic Shadow Four-Directional Slash!
In an instant, four ghost-like pitch-black figures appeared out of thin air, each holding a demonic sword identical to the main one, and they charged with lightning speed toward Dongfang Changfan, who was struggling to maintain his stability.
However, this was only the beginning. Just as the four dark shadows were about to close in on Dongfang Changfan, Liu Chen once again activated an Immortal Path Killer Move—Intercept Luck!
As soon as this move was unleashed, it acted like an invisible net, quickly enveloping the area where Dongfang Changfan was located.
At this moment, Dongfang Changfan was in extreme danger. He did his best to barely steady his swaying body, but he was still unable to escape the desperate situation he faced. At the same time, the scene representing his own Luck above his head was clearly visible: it was a rice field filled with cracks, parched and barren! Fortunately, this rice field had not yet completely become a lifeless dead land; there was still a faint, weak glimmer of opportunity within it...
