Gou's Liver Experience in the World of Demons and Demons

"God-Slaying Thorn!"

"puff--"

The warrior at the very front, at the Earth Martial Realm, froze abruptly, his eyes losing all light.

Before he could react, a golden sword aura had already slashed across his neck.

"Lao Wu!"

The remaining four people, their eyes blazing with fury, simultaneously turned and rushed towards the source of the sword energy.

The four people's true energy merged into one, forming a huge net of true energy that crushed all the trees within a radius of ten zhang into dust.

"break!"

Gu Sheng let out a sharp shout, and his internal energy surged suddenly.

His aura surged, breaking through its original limits in the blink of an eye.

"The Three Transformations of Nirvana, the Second Transformation!"

The golden sword energy surged in the wind, transforming into a terrifying ribbon several meters long. Wherever the sword energy passed, the air was torn apart, emitting a piercing shriek.

"Join forces to resist!"

The four Earth Martial Realm warriors simultaneously unleashed their strongest defenses, their true energy forming four thick light shields in front of them.

"boom--"

Amidst the deafening explosion, four figures were sent flying, spitting out mouthfuls of blood.

Their meridians were severed inch by inch by the aftershocks of the sword energy, and they were crippled when they landed.

"This is impossible!"

Meng Xiao's face was deathly pale, and his lips trembled.

"You're clearly only at the Xuanwu Realm."

Xie Qingxuan stood not far away, her beautiful eyes sparkling with admiration.

She never imagined that this seemingly ordinary young man possessed such terrifying strength.

"Gu Sheng."

She murmured softly, her heart racing uncontrollably.

"asshole!"

Meng Xiao suddenly grinned maliciously, took out a jade talisman from his storage ring, and crushed it violently.

"You forced me to do this!"

The moment the jade talisman shattered, a suffocating pressure suddenly descended.

A phantom figure materialized in the air. Although it was blurry and indistinct, its terrifying aura caused the entire dense forest to tremble.

"The incarnation of Tianwu!"

Xie Qingxuan gasped in shock.

"Gu Sheng, run! This is the incarnation of a Heavenly Martial Realm expert!"

"Hahaha, run? Too late!"

Meng Xiao laughed wildly and pointed at Gu Sheng.

"Ancestor, kill him!"

The Heavenly Martial Avatar slowly raised his hand, and a terrifying power capable of destroying mountains was gathering.

However, at this critical moment, Gu Sheng's figure suddenly turned into specks of golden light and disappeared into the air.

"what?!"

Meng Xiao's smile froze on his face.

"Fool, that was just my spiritual incarnation."

Gu Sheng's voice came from the other side of the dense forest, and his true form emerged.

In a few leaps, he arrived in front of Meng Xiao, his qi condensing into a sword, aiming straight for Meng Xiao's throat.

"No!"

In the face of death, Meng Xiao unleashed unprecedented potential, barely managing to dodge a fatal blow. The sword of energy grazed his neck, leaving a trail of blood.

"You can't kill me!"

Meng Xiao shouted hysterically.

"My Meng family has a Heavenly Martial Realm ancestor overseeing us, making us comparable to a second-rate sect! My ancestor has already received the message and is on his way. If you kill me, you will all die!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng stopped what he was doing and raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Oh? The ancestor you're talking about is that Heavenly Martial incarnation from earlier?"

"That's right!"

When Meng Xiao saw Gu Sheng stop, he assumed Gu Sheng was scared and immediately resumed his arrogant behavior.

"If you know what's good for you, kneel down and beg for mercy right now, and maybe I can give you a quick death!"

"Ah"

Gu Sheng suddenly laughed, a laugh that sent a chill down Meng Xiao's spine.

"This mere old codger who has just entered the Heavenly Martial Realm dares to threaten me? If he dares to come, I'll just kill him too."

"you you."

Meng Xiao was completely stunned.

He had always prided himself on his arrogance, but he had never seen anyone so presumptuous. A Heavenly Martial Realm expert—that was someone capable of founding a sect!
"Humph!"

With a cold snort, a figure in a gray robe suddenly appeared in mid-air.

He was an old man with white hair and beard, his face gaunt, yet he exuded a suffocatingly powerful aura.

The air in the mountains and forests seemed to freeze, the leaves moved without wind, and the pebbles on the ground floated up on their own.

"Tianwu realm!"

Xie Qingxuan's pretty face turned deathly pale, her delicate body pressed hard against the ground by an invisible pressure, unable to move.

Xie He, who had just arrived, also groaned and knelt on one knee, veins bulging on his forehead.

"Ancestor save me!"

When Meng Xiao saw the newcomer, his eyes flashed with wild joy, and he pointed to his severed arm and roared.

"That brat Gu Sheng cut off my arm! I beg you, Ancestor, to do me justice!"

The Meng family patriarch's gaze swept over Gu Sheng, the only one standing in the arena.

When he discovered that the other party was only at the fourth level of the Earth Martial Realm, his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly—this young man remained completely unmoved in the face of his pressure!
"It is truly remarkable that you have such cultivation at such a young age."

The old ancestor's voice was hoarse, and his tone carried a condescending, condescending air.

"How about we let this matter drop?"

"Ancestor!"

Meng Xiao stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

"He cut off my arm, how could he?"

"Shut up!"

The old ancestor gave a cold shout, and Meng Xiao immediately fell silent.

Gu Sheng's lips curled into a mocking smile.

"Old man, your attempt to make peace is far too insincere. If you're afraid, then show some sincerity; if you're not afraid, then let's fight!"

"presumptuous!"

A cold glint suddenly appeared in the old ancestor's eyes.

"I spared your life because I thought your cultivation had been difficult, yet you are so ungrateful!"

"Hahaha!"

Gu Sheng laughed loudly, his laughter filled with contempt.

"You old fool, stop with the pretense. Your Meng family launched the sneak attack first, and now that you can't win, you want to make peace? There's no such thing as a free lunch!"

Meng Xiao gritted his teeth in anger.

"Ancestor, this boy is extremely arrogant and must not be allowed to live!"

The old ancestor's face was gloomy.

"Boy, I've given you a chance."

Before he finished speaking, his aura suddenly erupted, and a pressure several times stronger than before crushed towards Gu Sheng.

The ground cracked, trees broke, and the Xie siblings were crushed to the ground, bleeding from their mouths and noses.

However, Gu Sheng stood tall despite the terrifying pressure, his eyes filled with mockery.

"Is this all you can do?"

Gu Sheng sneered, and four deafening roars suddenly came from his body.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Four dazzling beams of light shot into the sky from behind him, transforming into four enormous energy vortexes that frantically devoured the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Gu Sheng's aura rose steadily, actually forcing back the ancestor's oppressive aura!

"The Four Great Grotto-Heavens?!"

The old ancestor's pupils suddenly contracted, and for the first time, a look of surprise appeared on his gaunt face.

"You're only at the fourth level of the Earth Martial Realm, how could you possibly be..."

"Old man, are you scared now?"

Gu Sheng's long hair moved without wind, and as the four great grotto-heavens spun around him, violent true energy surged around his body.

"Weren't you so arrogant just now?"

The old ancestor's expression was unpredictable; he had lived for nearly a hundred years and had never seen such a monstrous talent.

The Earth Martial Realm opening up four great grotto-heavens—this is simply unheard of!

"Boy, you do have some skill." The old ancestor suppressed his shock and said in a low voice.

"But the gap between the Heavenly Martial Realm and the Earthly Martial Realm cannot be bridged by a few hidden realms. I'll give you one last chance."

"Noisy!"

Gu Sheng interrupted impatiently.

"If you want to fight, then fight! Stop with all this nonsense!"

The patriarch was finally enraged, and veins bulged on his forehead.

"court death!"

He thrust his withered hand forward with a sudden movement, and a massive palm print, several meters high, materialized out of thin air, hurtling towards Gu Sheng with overwhelming force.

Wherever the palm print passed, deep furrows were plowed into the ground, and the air emitted a piercing crackling sound.

"Brother Gu, be careful!"

Xie Qingxuan exclaimed in surprise.

Gu Sheng neither dodged nor evaded; with a flick of his right hand, a long sword condensed from qi instantly materialized.

His eyes flashed with a sharp light as he slashed out with his sword to meet the palm print.

"break!"

With sword energy surging and the power of the four great grotto heavens amplified, this sword actually cleaved the giant palm print in two.

Even more terrifying, the sword energy showed no signs of slowing down and headed straight for the ancestor!

"what?!"

The old ancestor was shocked and hastily dodged to the side, but was still grazed by the sword energy on his sleeve.

His gray robe, which was clearly of extraordinary quality, had most of its sleeves cut off and fell to the ground.

There was dead silence.

Meng Xiao's mouth dropped open, his eyes filled with disbelief. The Xie siblings were also stunned; although they knew Gu Sheng was strong, they hadn't expected him to be this strong!

"The first sword."

Gu Sheng held a longsword imbued with qi, his tone dismissive.

"I said, within three sword strikes, I will surely cross the border and kill you."

"Arrogant kid!"

The ancestor was utterly enraged, and every strand of his white hair stood on end.

"Today I will make you wish you were dead!"

He quickly formed hand seals, and in an instant, dozens of palm prints condensed in the air, each containing terrifying power enough to flatten a Martial Realm expert.

"Thousand Illusion Palm!"

The palm print slammed towards Gu Sheng, blocking all his escape routes.

Gu Sheng's eyes were serious, but the cold smile on his lips remained unchanged.

He secretly sent a telepathic message to Xie He.

"Take Qingxuan away, the farther the better."

Xie He was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening, and with great effort, he pulled his sister up and ran away into the distance.

"Want to run?"

Seeing this, Meng Xiao tried to stop him, but was forced back by a sudden burst of sword energy.

He looked at Gu Sheng with a mixture of shock and anger, only to find that the other party was clearly dealing with the ancestor's attack, so how could he still have energy left?
"Old man, is this all you can do?"

While wielding his sword to block the palm strikes, Gu Sheng continued to provoke him.

"No wonder the Meng family is full of good-for-nothings; it turns out that if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too!"

"Ugh! This is infuriating!"

The patriarch was enraged and his attacks became even more ferocious.

"If I don't tear you to pieces today, I swear I'm not a human being!"

Gu Sheng appeared arrogant on the surface.

He deliberately provoked the other party repeatedly in order to completely enrage him and make him fight to the death.

"Since we've become enemies, let's nip it in the bud!"

Gu Sheng felt a chilling murderous intent in his heart.

"Junior is seeking death!"

The Meng family patriarch roared, and lightning surged from his palm, transforming into thousands of electric snakes that hurtled towards Gu Sheng.

That "Ten Thousand Thunder Piercing Heart Palm" was his signature move. Before the palm wind even arrived, the violent power of thunder had already ionized the surrounding air, producing a piercing crackling sound.

A glint flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes as the nine great grotto-heavens simultaneously opened within his body, and a layer of pale golden light, visible to the naked eye, formed on his body surface from the immense qi.

"boom!"

The lightning struck Gu Sheng squarely, but the golden light shield remained completely still, the violent power of the lightning being forcefully blocked.

The patriarch of the Meng family's pupils suddenly contracted, and a strong sense of alarm arose in his heart.

"How can it be?!"

In the instant he was shocked, Gu Sheng's figure suddenly disappeared from the lightning.

The old man's hair stood on end; his years of experience in life-and-death battles made him instinctively dodge to the side.

"laugh--"

A three-foot-long sword of qi, formed from concentrated qi, grazed the ancestor's neck, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

The old ancestor let out a muffled groan, staggered back several steps, the flesh on his neck torn open, and a deep sword mark on the white neck bone was faintly visible.

"The old man is quite tough."

Gu Sheng sneered and raised his sword again.

The Meng family patriarch's eyes were filled with horror. In his early years, he had a fortuitous encounter and cultivated a body-forging technique, making his bones stronger than refined steel. Otherwise, that sword strike just now would have been enough to separate his head from his body!
"Little beast!"

The ancestor roared, his true energy erupting, and countless silver snake-like bolts of lightning burst forth from his body, instantly enveloping an area of ​​ten feet in radius.

Gu Sheng shifted his feet, using the "Splitter Step" to retreat rapidly.

The spot where he had been standing was blasted into a crater over ten feet deep by lightning, and the ground cracked.

Unexpectedly, the ancestor did not pursue them. Instead, he used his true energy to carry the already terrified Meng Xiao away in a streak of light.

"Want to go?"

Gu Sheng's eyes sharpened, and the nine great grotto-heavens within his body began to operate wildly, condensing seven crimson divine flame swords in front of him.

"The Northern Star Immortal-Slaying Sword!"

With a low shout, seven swords of energy shot through the air, moving with lightning speed.

At the same time, Gu Sheng's face suddenly turned deathly pale, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and swayed a few times, almost falling over.

A shrill scream echoed from the distant horizon, and a cloud of blood mist could be vaguely seen bursting forth from the streak of light. But the streak of light did not slow down and vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

"pity."

Gu Sheng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and forced himself to sit cross-legged. Using the Northern Star Immortal Slaying Sword twice in one day was something even he, with his abundant true energy from the Nine Great Cave Heavens, couldn't withstand.

"Master! How are you?"

The anxious voice of the innate spiritual embryo echoed in my mind.

Just as Gu Sheng was about to answer, his vision blurred and a phantom figure appeared in front of him.

The man was dressed in a blue robe, his face was indistinct, yet he gave off an unfathomable feeling.

"Master Craftsman Yue"

Gu Sheng recognized the illusory figure.

Without saying a word, the illusory figure waved its sleeve, and Gu Sheng felt dizzy and disoriented. The next moment, he found himself in a magnificent bronze palace.

"This is... the Divine Craft Labyrinth?"

Gu Sheng looked around and recognized that this was the mysterious hall where he had obtained the innate spiritual embryo.

"You are badly injured."

Yue Shengong's illusory figure floated in mid-air, his voice ethereal as if coming from the heavens.

"After three days of recuperation here, you can fully recover."

Gu Sheng nodded, said no more, and closed his eyes to circulate his cultivation technique. The nine great grotto-heavens slowly rotated, beginning to absorb the rich spiritual energy in the main hall.

Meanwhile, a beam of light teetered precariously in the sky a hundred miles away.

The three large, bowl-sized holes in the chest of the Meng family patriarch were shocking, and the charred wounds emitted a pungent, burnt smell.

Meng Xiao, who was in his arms, was already pale with fright.

"Grandfather, are you alright?"

Meng Xiao's voice trembled.

The old ancestor endured the excruciating pain, took out a jade-green pill from his robes and swallowed it, and his complexion improved slightly.

"It's alright, I took a Grade 7 Rejuvenation Pill beforehand, I won't die."

Meng Xiao lowered his head, his voice filled with self-reproach.

"It's all my fault for dragging my grandfather down with me."

"Humph!"

The old ancestor snorted coldly, but did not reprimand him.

"Consider this a lesson. The path of cultivation isn't one where you can run rampant just because of your family background. Some people, even if their cultivation is inferior to yours, can still take your life!"

Meng Xiao's body trembled, and his eyes showed realization.

"Grandson understands."

The old ancestor nodded in satisfaction, then his face darkened. (End of Chapter)
