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

"puff--!"

Xiao Beixuan's body trembled violently, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!

He stared intently at the now completely silent compass, his face first showing disbelief and astonishment, then turning into overwhelming rage and ferocity!

"Who?! Who did this?!"

He let out a roar, and his violent aura as a human king exploded out of control!
The entire hall was shaking violently, the ground was cracking, and gravel was falling everywhere!

"The sacrifices...were all wiped out?!"

The young man standing not far behind him, who was the backup array eye (a disciple of the Styx River), also sensed the feedback from the restriction. His face instantly drained of color, and his eyes were filled with extreme shock!

But beneath this shock, an indescribable ecstasy quickly swept through!

With all the sacrifices destroyed, the great formation cannot be activated, and he... will no longer be the doomed core of the formation!
His slight emotional fluctuation did not escape the wrath of Xiao Beixuan!

"Useless trash! What are you so happy about?!"

Xiao Beixuan appeared before the young man, his eyes burning with a frenzied rage, and with a raised hand, delivered a slap imbued with violent true energy!

Snapped!
With a sharp crack, the young man had no time to react and was sent flying, crashing heavily into the solid pillar of the palace!

Blood gushed from his mouth, half of his cheek instantly became red, swollen, and deformed, and several of his teeth fell out!

He lay curled up on the ground, convulsing in pain, his eyes filled with fear and resentment, yet he dared not offer the slightest resistance.

"Pass on the order!!"

Xiao Beixuan didn't even look at the young man on the ground and roared fiercely. His voice penetrated the main hall and resounded throughout the core area of ​​the Thousand Souls Hall.

"All disciples of the Boundless Sect! All worshippers! Immediately! Surround the sacrificial plaza! Seal off all exits! Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we must drag out that scum who ruined my offerings! I will... tear him to pieces! Extract his soul and refine his spirit!"

His command was like a thunderclap.

Despite the excruciating pain and humiliation, the young man struggled to pull out a strangely shaped bronze bell from his pocket, his eyes filled with ruthlessness, and shook it forcefully!
Jingle Bell--!
A crisp yet eerily penetrating bell rang out instantly, echoing in all directions! This was a top-level summons!
In an instant, countless figures, like sharks that have smelled blood, swarmed out from every corner, passage, and side hall of the Thousand Souls Palace!

There were disciples dressed in the robes of the Wuya Sect, evil cultivators with a chilling aura, and several figures exuding powerful auras soaring into the air and rapidly converging towards the sacrificial plaza!
The entire core area of ​​the secret realm was instantly enveloped by a chilling and violent aura!

On the sacrificial plaza.

The moment Gu Sheng sensed the unusual movement of the Heavenly Demon Vine and the draining of its life force, he realized something was wrong.

When the strong smell of blood rose into the sky, he knew even more clearly that he had been exposed!

"go!"

Without hesitation, he quickly suppressed the Heavenly Demon Vine, which was on the verge of advancing and appeared unusually excited and greedy!

The golden-red light on his left arm instantly receded, and the vines that were frantically devouring flesh and life force seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, emitting a hiss, and quickly retracted back to the ground and disappeared.

Without even glancing at the bloody scene behind him, Gu Sheng suddenly leaped into the air, transforming into a blurry streak of light, and raced at full speed towards the relatively empty depths of the secret realm, far from the main hall!

He was incredibly fast, pushing the speed of a Human King to its limit, leaving a long afterimage in the dim sky.

The direction he chose did not seem to be an area where the Boundless Sect had focused its defenses.

They sped for dozens of miles, with rolling black mountains and bottomless ravines below, the air thick with a sinister aura, a harsh environment.

Along the way, he only encountered a few groups of low-level disciples of the Wuya Sect who were responsible for perimeter security.

These disciples had clearly not yet received orders from the core area. When they saw Gu Sheng, this unfamiliar powerful figure, flying through the air, they looked up in surprise and uncertainty, and some even tried to ask him questions.

But Gu Sheng was too fast and ignored them completely, disappearing from their sight in an instant.

"It seems that the orders from the main hall have not yet been fully relayed to the outer areas."

Gu Sheng felt somewhat relieved, but his vigilance remained undiminished.

He knew that the real main force of the encirclement and suppression would inevitably be concentrated in the core area and near the square, and the looseness on the periphery was only temporary.

He must find a relatively safe place as soon as possible to deal with the strange behavior of the Heavenly Demon Vine before making any further plans.

Just as he flew over a valley filled with jagged rocks and black mist, a strange change occurred!

"Hmph! You destroyed my offerings, and you think you can escape?!"

A chilling, sharp shout echoed through the valley below!

Immediately afterwards, three figures exuding a powerful aura soared into the sky from the swirling black mist, instantly forming a triangular shape to block Gu Sheng's path!

The leader was short and thin, wearing a large black robe and a pale, ghostly mask covering his face, revealing only a pair of eyes that glowed with an eerie green light.

He was surrounded by a faint black aura, and the aura he exuded was cold and eerie, clearly indicating that he was also a powerful expert at the Human King Realm!
His cultivation level seemed to be even stronger than Xue Jue's!
On the left was a tall, muscular man with a bare upper body covered in hideous tattoos. He wore a bloodthirsty grin and carried a massive black axe the size of a door. His aura was wild and violent, and he was also at the Human King Realm!

The person on the right is a glamorous woman wearing a revealing red gauze dress. She has a graceful figure, but her eyes are cold.

She was playing with a bone flute wrapped in black energy. Although her aura was not as solid as the previous two, it had still reached the threshold of the Human King Realm!

These three people were the leaders of the three elite squads sent by Xiao Beixuan!
After receiving the summons from the copper bell, they did not rush to the square immediately. Instead, based on the clues about the previous disappearance of the Blood Jade, they searched the edge of the eastern district and happened to sense the powerful aura and direction of Gu Sheng flying through the air. They immediately chased after him!
"Boy! You're the one who ruined the young master's offerings? You've got some nerve!"

The burly man wielding the giant axe spoke with a booming voice, the axe pointing directly at Gu Sheng, his violent killing intent pressing down.

"Why waste words with him! Daring to ruin the Venerable One's grand plan, he deserves only death!"

The masked man's voice was hoarse, like the scraping of metal, carrying a chilling aura.

Black energy surged around him, and faint sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling could be heard.

The alluring woman chuckled, her voice charming yet carrying a deadly poison.

"Young man, you have such delicate skin, how about I pamper you a bit before sending you on your way?"

The bone flute in her hand swayed gently, and an invisible wave of energy, carrying a sense of bewilderment, quietly spread out.

Gu Sheng suddenly stopped, hovering in mid-air.

He stared blankly at the three people blocking his way, his eyes cold.

Three people at the Human King Realm! And judging from their aura, they are definitely not ordinary people who have just entered this realm!
The masked man, in particular, seemed the most dangerous to him. He slowly scanned his surroundings.

Below was a bottomless valley shrouded in black mist, and behind them lay the path they had come from, but pursuers were probably already closing in.

On both sides are steep black cliffs, jagged rocks, with nowhere to hide.

A powerful enemy blocked the way ahead, pursuers were closing in from behind, and sheer cliffs and deep valleys surrounded us on both sides!

Gu Sheng slowly clenched his fist, and the true energy within his body, like a dormant volcano, began to surge and roar.

His gaze was sharp as lightning, fixed on the masked man, his voice calm and undisturbed.

"Those who block my way shall die."

Gu Sheng flew swiftly through the air, his gaze sharp as an eagle's, scanning the secret realm below.

He noticed that the Wuya Sect disciples, who were originally scattered throughout the secret realm and responsible for guarding and searching, were now rushing towards the core area.

Even when disciples occasionally noticed his figure flying through the air, they only cast a wary or puzzled glance, without taking any action to intercept him, let alone sending a warning message.

"As expected! Xiao Beixuan can sense whether the sacrificial offerings are alive or dead! With all the sacrificial offerings destroyed, he must be furious and is mobilizing all his forces to besiege the core area!"

Gu Sheng understood, becoming even more certain of his previous judgment.

By destroying the offerings, he essentially stirred up a hornet's nest. The core area is now a den of dragons and tigers, teeming with experts.

Although he was not afraid, he was also unwilling to be surrounded immediately.

The most urgent task is to find Zhao Boyang and his group! And also that mysterious and unpredictable Jin'er, who may be even more dangerous than Xiao Beixuan!
He quickly recalled the location of the cave where he and Zhao Boyang and the others had hidden when he was controlling the "Blood Jade" puppet.

That was a hidden place on the edge of the eastern part of the secret realm, concealed by huge vines and collapsed stone pillars.

Once he made up his mind, Gu Sheng immediately changed direction, heading towards the location he remembered. He concealed his aura, lowered his altitude, and flew rapidly along the undulating mountains and deep valleys.

……

Rewind to before Gu Sheng's consciousness was forcibly forced back into his physical body.

Inside that hidden cave, concealed by vines and stone pillars.

Under Jin'er's dazzling golden finger, "Blood Jade's" body suddenly gushed out a large amount of blackish-red blood from its seven orifices, let out a shrill scream that was not human, and then collapsed softly to the ground.

It completely lost all vitality and breath, becoming a true corpse.

This sudden turn of events plunged everyone inside the cave into a deathly silence and chaos!
"Lord Xuejue...is dead?!"

Several surviving martial artists who had been brought by Jin'er (actually puppets she secretly controlled) showed shock and confusion on their faces, and subconsciously took a few steps back, at a loss.

Zhao Boyang, Lao Xiong, and Lao Zhen were all deeply shaken!

Especially Zhao Boyang, who had just confirmed that Gu Sheng was controlling the "Blood Jade", was killed by Jin'er with a single finger in the blink of an eye!

This stark contrast left his mind blank!
"Don't panic!"

At the critical moment, Zhao Boyang suppressed the turmoil in his heart and shouted sharply!
After all, he was an experienced disciple of the Holy Academy and knew that he must not lose his composure at this moment!
His gaze was like lightning, instantly sweeping over everyone in the cave, finally locking onto the middle-aged martial artist (Old Zhen/Chen Zhen) who had been silent and composed all along!
This person had previously questioned Gu Sheng's (who controlled the Blood Jade) identity. Now that the Blood Jade had died suddenly, although his face showed shock, there seemed to be little surprise in the depths of his eyes. Instead, there was an almost imperceptible scrutiny?
"Old Bear! Protect Miss Jin'er!"

Zhao Boyang acted decisively, shouting at the equally surprised and uncertain burly man (Old Xiong), while taking a step forward to subtly block Jin'er's path, his eyes fixed on the middle-aged martial artist.

"Brother Chen! And you all! Step back! Stay put and stand guard! No one is to move without my order!"

He instantly divided the people in the cave into two groups: one group consisted of himself, Old Bear, and Jin'er, who needed protection.

On the other side were several martial artists of unknown origin, led by a middle-aged martial artist (Chen Zhen), who seemed particularly suspicious at the moment.

He had to stabilize the situation and figure out exactly what had happened!
Although Lao Xiong wasn't as quick-witted as Zhao Boyang, he always carried out his orders without question.

Upon hearing this, he immediately roared, his burly body blocking Jin'er's side, his muscles bulging and his true energy surging, as he warily stared at the people opposite him.

The middle-aged martial artist (Chen Zhen) looked at Zhao Boyang and Old Xiong's tense posture, and then at the "Blood Jade" corpse on the ground. Suddenly, an extremely strange smile appeared on his lips.

He slowly raised his head, his once composed gaze turning sharp and cold, even carrying... mockery?
"Ha ha……"

A soft laugh escaped his lips, but the voice was no longer the deep male voice from before; instead, it became a soft, charming, languid, and authoritative female voice!

To the astonishment of Zhao Boyang and Lao Xiong, the middle-aged martial artist's face began to ripple, and his figure rapidly became slender.

In the blink of an eye, a tall, beautiful woman in a black dress with a cool yet mysterious and languid air replaced the previous middle-aged martial artist and stood there gracefully!

It is indeed Jin'er!

"Jin... Miss Jin'er?!"

Zhao Boyang was struck dumb, his pupils instantly shrinking to the size of pinpoints!
He stared in disbelief at the familiar yet unfamiliar stunning face before him, his mind reeling!
That seemingly fragile woman, whom he always thought needed protection and was skilled in formations, had actually... been lurking and disguising herself all along?!
Moreover... the methods she just displayed...

Old Xiong was dumbfounded, his mouth agape enough to fit an egg, pointing at Jin'er and stammering.

"You...you...you're not..."

"it's me."

Jin'er parted her red lips slightly, her voice regaining its previous coolness, but to Zhao Boyang at this moment, it sounded icy and chilling.

Her gaze calmly swept over the shocked faces of Zhao Boyang and Lao Xiong, then glanced at the unconscious Lao Xiong (another one) and Lao Zhen on the ground, before finally settling on the several martial artists she had brought with her, who were equally dumbfounded.

"What a pity, I wanted to play a little longer."

Jin'er shook her head slightly, her tone filled with regret, yet also revealing absolute control.

"However, the game should end now."

Before she finished speaking, she casually waved her right hand lightly towards the martial artists she had brought with her!
An invisible yet incredibly powerful force instantly enveloped the dozen or so martial artists!
The bewilderment and horror in their eyes vanished instantly, replaced by an absolute, empty obedience!

Like a puppet controlled by invisible threads!
"Kill them."

Jin'er's voice was flat and calm, as if she were talking about a trivial matter.

The dozen or so controlled martial artists roared instantly, their eyes flashing with bloodlust, their true essence erupting without reservation, as they fearlessly pounced on Zhao Boyang, Old Xiong, and the unconscious Old Xiong and Old Zhen on the ground! (End of this chapter)
