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

"In the Spirit Flame Mountain Secret Realm, only you and that girl came out alive. My disciple and the young sect master of the Divine Blood Sect have all disappeared. Do you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you?"

Gu Sheng circulated his true energy to resist the oppressive force, yet remained calm on the surface.

"Sect Master, you are mistaken. I am merely at the Earth Martial Realm; how could I possibly kill more than ten Heaven Martial Realm experts on my own? Moreover..."

His gaze swept toward the sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect.

"And your sect's young sect leader."

The sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect narrowed his blood-red eyes slightly.

"Kid, you're quite the smooth talker. But you know perfectly well what really happened in the secret realm."

Gu Sheng sighed and made a helpless expression.

"Both sect leaders, please be aware that the lava lake in the secret realm suddenly experienced unusual activity, and I was fortunate enough to escape. As for your sect's disciples..."

He paused deliberately.

"Perhaps there was some conflict between them?"

"Nonsense!"

The leader of the Sun and Moon Sect was extremely angry.

"Han Song is a man of principle; why would he provoke a conflict for no reason?"

Gu Sheng remained neither humble nor arrogant.

"Young Master Xu does indeed have a unique personality. I personally witnessed him provoke the young sect master of the Divine Blood Sect, and the two almost came to blows."

Upon hearing this, the sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect had a flash of blood-red light in his eyes.

"Old man of the Sun and Moon, you have failed to teach your disciples properly, and now you come to question a junior in the Earth Martial Realm?"

The sect leader of the Sun and Moon Sect had a gloomy expression.

"Blood Monster, don't let him provoke you! There must be something fishy about how this kid survived in the secret realm!"

Seeing the two arguing, Gu Sheng was secretly pleased, but on the surface he pretended to be terrified.

"If the two sect leaders don't believe it, why don't they go into the secret realm themselves to check? The signs of disturbance in the lava lake are still there; you'll know for sure at a glance."

The sect leaders of the Sun Moon Sect and the Divine Blood Sect exchanged a glance, both seeing suspicion in each other's eyes.

"Kid, you're trying to get rid of us?"

The sect leader of the Sun and Moon Sect sneered.

Gu Sheng shrugged.

"I was merely making a suggestion. If the two sect leaders believe it was my doing..."

His eyes held a sharp edge.

"Then let's do it now. But..."

He looked at the sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect.

"If I die, the truth will probably never come to light."

The sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect pondered for a moment.

"Old man of the Sun and Moon, why don't we go in and investigate? If what this boy says is true..."

The Sun and Moon Sect Master's eyes flickered with uncertainty before he finally let out a cold snort.

"Okay! But you must stay!"

He pointed at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng smiled slightly.

"Alright. But if I can be proven innocent, the two sect leaders must give me an explanation."

"How dare you! Who do you think you are, to presume to answer to this sect leader?"

The sect leader of the Sun and Moon Sect roared angrily.

Gu Sheng remained calm and unhurried.

"I only ask for justice. If the sect leader won't even grant me this simple promise..."

He looked meaningfully at the sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect.

"It inevitably makes people suspect that he has something to hide."

The sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect suddenly burst into laughter.

"What a quick-witted young man! Old man of the sun and moon, are you afraid?"

The sect leader of the Sun Moon Sect had a grim face.

"Blood Monster, you..."

"enough!"

The sect leader of the Divine Blood Sect waved his hand.

"Boy, let's go in and check. If it's really as you say, this sect master will guarantee your safety!"

Gu Sheng cupped his hands in greeting.

"Thank you, Sect Master of Divine Blood."

The Sun Moon Sect Master's eyes still held murderous intent, but he ultimately said nothing more.

He turned to the three elders behind him.

"You guys stay here and keep an eye on this kid."

Before the bronze gate, the air seemed to solidify.

The gaunt figure of the Grand Elder of the Sun Moon Sect resembled a withered tree trunk, yet it exuded a suffocating aura of power.

His cloudy eyes were fixed on Gu Sheng, and his withered fingers occasionally stroked the black dagger at his waist.

"Young man, I advise you to save your energy."

The elder's voice sounded like sandpaper rubbing.

"Once the sect leader comes out, everything will be clear."

Gu Sheng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile.

He deliberately leaned back, almost touching Xie Qingxuan.

The girl's breathing quickened noticeably, and her slender fingers gripped his clothes tightly.

"Why is the Grand Elder so nervous?"

Gu Sheng said lazily.

"We are just passing through this place and don't even know what's inside that bronze door."

Among the four elders of the Divine Blood Sect, a bald man with a face full of scars snorted coldly.

"Stop pretending! You are all involved in Elder Xu's death!"

A barely perceptible glint appeared in Gu Sheng's eyes.

He suddenly raised his hand, and a beam of azure energy shot out from his fingertips, heading straight for the Grand Elder's face.

"presumptuous!"

The Grand Elder waved his sleeve, and the protective energy was dispersed before it even got close.

His eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he forcefully suppressed it.

"Boy, if you dare to lay a hand on me again, I'll cripple you right now!"

Gu Sheng exaggeratedly took two steps back, but his face was filled with a mocking smile.

"The experts at the Sect Realm are indeed worthy of their reputation; even their protective qi is so powerful."

Xie Qingxuan nervously tugged at his sleeve and whispered.

"Gu Sheng, no."

Gu Sheng gave her a reassuring look, then turned to look at the four elders of the Divine Blood Sect.

"Seniors, don't you agree? A Grandmaster Realm expert is truly different; even standing still can be terrifying."

The bald elder's forehead veins bulged.

"You sharp-tongued brat, wait until the sect leader comes out, and let's see if you'll still be laughing!"

"Oh dear, I'm so scared."

Gu Sheng feigned fear, but then suddenly raised his hand, sending three streams of energy towards the three elders of the Divine Blood Sect.

"court death!"

The three elders roared in anger, but merely blocked the attack without actually making a move.

Gu Sheng was secretly delighted.

He noticed that although the five elders were angry, they all restrained themselves from actually taking action.

Clearly, they are waiting for the two sect leaders to come out before making a decision.

"Gu Sheng."

Xie Qingxuan's voice trembled.

"us."

"Don't be afraid."

Gu Sheng lowered his voice and spoke in a volume that only she could hear.

"They won't dare to make a move; they'll have to watch my signals later."

The elder narrowed his eyes.

"What are you muttering about?"

Gu Sheng immediately put on a smiling face.

"I was praising the seniors for their profound cultivation and broad-mindedness, for they could even tolerate the provocations of a junior like me."

"Glib tongue!"

The elder snorted coldly and simply closed his eyes.

"I'm too lazy to bother with you. Wait until the sect leader comes out, then you'll see what's what."

Gu Sheng's eyes were cold.

He strolled around casually, occasionally raising his hand to unleash a burst of energy, but the five elders easily neutralized it.

Gradually, the five elders became too lazy to react to his attacks, only occasionally glaring at him with warning eyes.

"I'd like to address you, senior colleagues."

Gu Sheng suddenly raised his voice.

"Aren't you all bored just standing there? Why don't we have a chat?"

The bald elder chuckled.

“A dying man has a lot of nonsense to say.”

Gu Sheng didn't take it to heart and continued.

"I've heard that the Divine Blood Sect's 'Blood Refining Technique' can regenerate severed limbs. I wonder if that's true?"

"None of your business!" another elder of the Divine Blood Sect retorted angrily.

Gu Sheng lowered his voice, feigning mystery.

"I'm just curious, if your head gets cut off, can it grow back?"

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with murderous intent.

He had been beheaded by Tantai Bingtang's clone before, and although he survived by chance, this was his Achilles' heel.

"Boy, you are courting death!"

The elder's withered hand suddenly rose, but then abruptly stopped.

Gu Sheng felt much more at ease.

He made the right bet; these experts at the Grandmaster level indeed dared not act rashly.

"Elder, please calm down."

Gu Sheng feigned fear.

"I just asked casually."

The Grand Elder closed his eyes again.

"When the sect leader comes out, I'll be the first to tear your mouth apart!"

Time passed second by second, but the bronze gate remained tightly shut.

Gu Sheng noticed that the five elders' vigilance had clearly decreased, and some of them had even started to yawn.

It's now!

A cold glint flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes, and the Nine Dragons Universe Cauldron suddenly flew out from between his eyebrows and hovered above his head.

On the ancient cauldron, nine golden dragons seem to come alive, radiating dazzling golden light.

"not good!"

The Grand Elder was the first to react, but it was too late.

A dazzling golden light shot out from the cauldron and entered Gu Sheng's body.

The qi-infused longsword in his hand instantly ignited with dazzling golden divine flames, the intense heat distorting the surrounding air.

"Elder, is this all you've got?"

Gu Sheng launched his seventh flanking attack, his sword grazing the Grand Elder's sleeve and leaving a charred mark.

The elder's face was ashen, and with a flick of his sleeve, he dispersed the insignificant sword energy.

"Young man, you are seeking death!"

His voice was filled with suppressed anger, yet he remained standing still.

Gu Sheng's lips curled into a barely perceptible sneer as he approached again like a ghost.

"Come again!"

"boom!"

Another seemingly fierce but actually powerless attack. The Grand Elder didn't even bother to raise his hand; his protective aura simply crushed Gu Sheng's sword light.

"The thirteenth time."

Gu Sheng silently counted in his mind, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the four Divine Blood Sect elders watching the battle from afar.

Their faces already showed impatience, clearly tired of this pointless harassment.

This is exactly the effect Gu Sheng wanted.

"enough!"

The elder finally lost his temper and roared so loudly that the surrounding rocks shattered.

"A mere fourth-level Earth Martial Realm cultivator dares to do this?"

Before he could finish speaking, a terrifying glint suddenly flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes.

His long-dormant past life essence was finally awakened by the Nine Dragons Qiankun Cauldron, and an ancient and terrifying power surged out from the depths of his dantian.

"It's now!"

The Nine Dragons Universe Cauldron appeared above Gu Sheng's head, with nine dragon patterns lighting up simultaneously, radiating a chilling aura.

The elder's pupils suddenly contracted, and the angry expression on his face froze instantly.

"not good!"

He instinctively wanted to back away, but found that the space around him seemed to be imprisoned by some kind of force.

Gu Sheng had already raised his sword, its blade wreathed in interwoven gold and red flames. The flames appeared gentle, yet they caused the four Grandmaster Elders in the distance to change color simultaneously.

"Divine Flame Qi Sword?!"

The Second Elder of the Divine Blood Sect exclaimed in shock.

"Go back!"

But it was too late.

Gu Sheng's sword slashed down with a speed that appeared slow but was actually as fast as lightning.

There were no fancy sword moves, no complicated trajectories, only a pure and unadulterated flame sword aura.

"laugh"

The sound of the sword energy slicing through the air was so faint as to be almost inaudible, yet it sent shivers down the spines of everyone present.

The Grand Elder's protective aura was torn apart like paper. He didn't even have time to scream before his body was split in two.

Even more terrifying, there was no blood spurting from the incision, only white smoke rising.

The elder's two halves of his body rapidly vaporized in the horrified gazes of the crowd, turning into nothingness in the blink of an eye, leaving not even ashes behind.

A deathly silence enveloped the entire venue.

"This is impossible!"

A disciple of the Sun Moon Sect collapsed to his knees, his legs giving way.

The invincible elder in his mind was actually killed instantly by a junior at the fourth level of the Earth Martial Realm with a single sword strike.

Gu Sheng maintained his sword-wielding posture, his face as pale as paper, but a cold smile played on his lips.

His internal energy was almost exhausted, but his aura was more astonishing than ever before.

"Who else wants to try?"

His gaze swept over the four elders of the Divine Blood Sect, his voice hoarse yet full of intimidation.

The four experts at the Grandmaster level had uncertain expressions, and none of them dared to step forward.

They could clearly feel the terrifying power contained in the illusory sword in Gu Sheng's hand; it was a killing move that could threaten their lives.

"Gu Sheng."

Xie Qingxuan snapped out of her shock, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

She never imagined that this seemingly ordinary boy would have such strength.

Gu Sheng didn't turn around. With a wave of his left hand, a gentle force pulled Xie Qingxuan to his side.

"go!"

He let out a low shout and retreated rapidly.

"Stop him!"

The Third Elder of the Divine Blood Sect finally reacted and shouted sternly.

As if waking from a dream, more than a dozen figures simultaneously took to the air, their various martial arts techniques flashing, and blasted towards the direction Gu Sheng had fled.

"Boom boom boom!"

Rocks crumbled and trees shattered, but Gu Sheng didn't turn his head. He simply conjured a shield of flame behind him to withstand all the attacks.

With each collision, his face paled a little more, but his speed did not decrease at all.

"He won't last much longer!"

The Grand Elder of the Divine Blood Sect narrowed his eyes.

"Chase! But keep your distance."

The four powerful experts at the Grandmaster level finally made their move, but they cunningly hid behind the Sun Moon Sect disciples, maintaining a safe distance from Gu Sheng at all times.

Gu Sheng sneered inwardly; this was exactly the effect he wanted.

As he ran, he communicated with the spiritual embryo in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Are you ready?"

"anytime."

The voice of the spirit embryo echoed in his mind.

A fork in the road appeared ahead, and a glint of light flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes.

"It's now!"

A golden light separated from his body, transforming into another "Gu Sheng," and sped off towards the mountain road on the right.

The two Gu Shengs were exactly the same in terms of aura, appearance, and injuries, and even their running posture was identical.

"what?!"

The pursuing group was thrown into chaos.

"Clone Technique?"

"No, the two auras are exactly the same!"

"What should we do? Which one should we pursue?"

The disciples of the Sun Moon Sect looked at each other, at a loss for what to do.

The four elders of the Divine Blood Sect also stopped and exchanged unpleasant glances.

"Separate and chase!"

Elder Xue Wuyai of the Divine Blood Sect let out a sharp shout, a ruthless glint flashing in his cloudy old eyes.

His withered hand pointed to two completely opposite directions ahead, where Gu Sheng's figure was rapidly fleeing into the distance in each direction.

"Elder Xue, that kid is very cunning; that clone technique..."

Wu Santong, the deputy sect leader of Tianwu Sect, frowned.

"Humph!"

Xue Wuya snorted coldly.

"Who cares if it's true or false, just kill them all! That Xie family girl is in his hands, he won't get far!"

"But what if he cruelly abandons that girl?"

Beside Wu Santong, another elder from the Tianwu Sect hesitated.

A flash of bloodlust appeared in Xue Wuyai's eyes.

"Then we should split up and pursue them! Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free! If this kid grows up, he'll be a huge threat!"

The group exchanged glances, quickly split into two groups, and sped off in opposite directions. (End of Chapter)
