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

Seeing Situ Qingfeng's decisiveness, the members of the various sects no longer hesitated.

They clearly had a pre-arranged plan, with a King Realm elder leading the way, followed by several to a dozen Sect Realm warriors, entering the light gate in an orderly and phased manner. The Heavenly Fire Divine Sect, the Glazed Glass Divine Sect, the Longevity Divine Sect... one group after another quickly disappeared into the light gate.

After the last Grandmaster-level martial artist disappeared into the gate of light, only the Grandmaster-level elders from each sect and some disciples responsible for providing support remained at the scene.

Just as the light gate was slowly fluctuating and maintaining stability, the ancient voice of the Longevity Ancestor rang out again inside the Longevity Divine Sect's flying boat. This time, however, it carried a trace of cold certainty and killing intent, clearly reaching the ears of every King Realm elder present.

"Pass down the order: have all the Divine Cult forces lying in ambush within a hundred miles of the secret realm immediately tighten the encirclement and block all possible escape routes!"

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but ask from afar.

"Ancestor, what's wrong with you...?"

The voice of the Immortal Ancestor carried a hint of mockery.

"That kid who broke my mental suggestion just now is no ordinary body cultivator! His soul characteristics and style of doing things are extremely similar to those described in Gu Sheng's file! I am 90% certain that the so-called 'protector' next to Situ Qingfeng is Gu Sheng in disguise!"

He paused, and his powerful divine sense, like an invisible tentacle, instantly locked onto Nangong Yuexia, who had been standing discreetly at the front of the Xiaguang City team!
"Elder Nangong," the voice of the Ancestor of Longevity carried a sense of oppression.

"Is your Zixia Divine Sect aware of its cooperation with the Situ family?"

Nangong Yuexia seemed to have been prepared. Despite her slightly pale face in the face of the Venerable's pressure, she remained calm, bowed respectfully, and answered with neither arrogance nor servility.

"Reporting to the Ancestor, Yuexia was ordered to cooperate with Young Master Situ in exploring the secret realm, which was done on the orders of City Lord Shen of Xiaguang City. As for who Young Master Situ was with and their true identities, Yuexia did not know. Her contact with Young Master Situ was mostly handled by the City Lord's Mansion, and Yuexia was simply following orders."

She cleverly shifted the blame to Shen Wuguang, exonerating herself completely.

The Old Ancestor of Immortality lingered on her for a moment, seemingly judging the truthfulness of her words. Shen Wuguang, listening from the side, broke out in a cold sweat but dared not interrupt.

A moment later, the Ancestor of Immortality let out a cold snort.

"Hmph, I know you wouldn't dare to deceive me. I'll trust you this once."

He withdrew his divine sense from locking onto Nangong Yuexia, but the killing intent that enveloped the entire area did not dissipate.

"Order all parties to closely monitor the exit of the secret realm! If Gu Sheng is discovered, kill him without mercy!"

A flash of light appeared before their eyes, and a sense of spatial distortion followed. The next moment, Gu Sheng and Situ Qingfeng found themselves on solid ground.

They looked around and found themselves in a place completely different from the desolate valley they had entered from.

Here, clouds and mist swirl, and the dense, almost impenetrable spiritual energy of heaven and earth surges like a tide, making one feel their cultivation subtly increasing with every breath. In the sky, streaks of five-colored rays of light flow and soar like the aurora borealis, illuminating the entire secret realm with magnificence and mystery, as if one were in an ancient fairyland.

"Is this the interior of the Golden Wing Ridge Secret Realm?"

Situ Qingfeng looked around curiously, and then he noticed that apart from the two of them, none of the other martial artists who had entered the gate with him were anywhere to be seen.

Gu Sheng had already noticed this, his gaze sweeping over the empty surroundings.

Situ Qingfeng explained.

“Brother Gu, the teleportation mechanism at the entrance to this secret realm seems to be somewhat peculiar. According to the information left by my mother, if two people step into the portal at the same time and have physical contact with each other, they will most likely be teleported to the same area.”

However, those from different batches, or who haven't had contact, will be randomly teleported to various corners of the secret realm. It seems the others have been scattered.

Gu Sheng nodded slightly, indicating his understanding.

With a thought, he immediately sensed the presence of the spiritual avatar formed by Gu Ling'er. The invisible soul connection between the avatar and him was crystal clear, and he sensed that the avatar was also within this secret realm, about a hundred miles away from his true self.

He immediately diverted some of his attention to switch to the perspective of his avatar.

The place where the incarnation was located seemed to be a rather sparse ancient forest.

The person who was teleported over along with the avatar was none other than the female advisor from Shen Wuguang's residence who had previously been in the group and seemed to have an ambiguous relationship with the "Yun Qing" advisor!
At this moment, seeing that no one was around, the female advisor, who had been relatively restrained in front of others, suddenly became charming. Her watery eyes stared straight at Gu Sheng, and her eyes were full of seductive charm.

"Senior brother..."

Her voice was soft and gentle, with a hint of alluring huskiness, as she gracefully approached the incarnation.

"Finally, I've found a chance to be alone with you. I remember last time, in that little grove behind the city lord's mansion... You were so naughty."

She stretched out her slender fingers, seemingly wanting to hook the avatar's chin, her tone becoming increasingly explicit.

"In this secret realm, it's just the two of us now, isn't this a godsend? Why don't we find a secluded spot and... catch up? I've been missing my junior sister terribly..."

Gu Sheng himself, who sensed all of this through his avatar, furrowed his brow almost imperceptibly.

He controlled his avatar, expressionless, and did not respond to the female advisor's flirting, only looking at her indifferently.

The female staff member was somewhat surprised to see that her "senior brother" seemed unusually cold today, but she didn't think much of it, assuming that he was just being considerate of the environment or pretending to be reserved.

She licked her red lips, her body almost pressed against the avatar, her breath sweet as orchids, and continued to tease him.

"Senior brother~ Why aren't you saying anything? Could it be... that you're disgusted with your junior sister? Or perhaps, you've taken a fancy to that delicate little girl from the Five Poisons Sect in the team? Hmm?"

The moment she finished speaking!

Gu Sheng, who had been silent all along, finally made a move!

The movement was as fast as lightning, without the slightest warning!
Suddenly, a short sword, barely a foot long, completely black and without any luster, appeared in his right hand! The short sword, like a venomous snake emerging from its hole, carried an extremely restrained sharpness and deathly aura, and before the female advisor could react at all, it pierced her chest with perfect precision!

"Uh...you...!"

The female staff member's charming smile froze instantly, replaced by boundless terror and disbelief!
She looked down at the black dagger embedded in her heart, feeling her life force and cultivation being devoured and annihilated by a strange power. She wanted to struggle and shout, but found that she couldn't even make a sound. Her body quickly became cold and stiff.

Gu Sheng drew his short sword expressionlessly, the blade completely unstained by blood.

The female advisor's eyes dimmed completely, her delicate body collapsed to the ground, lifeless, her beauty fading away.

"The Heavenly Demon Sect's 'Bewitching Charm Technique'... their skills are not up to par, yet they dare to come out and embarrass themselves."

Gu Sheng looked at the corpse on the ground and muttered something in a cold tone.

"This Zixia Divine Sect, no, this mess left behind by the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, is truly a mixed bag. Even the evil cultivators from the Tianmei Sect have managed to infiltrate and become advisors in the City Lord's Mansion."

His gaze fell on the dark short sword, which was not the weapon he carried with him.

"Where did this short sword come from?" This question had just arisen in his mind.

A clear, youthful voice, yet tinged with a touch of old-fashioned wisdom, rang out beside him.

"Of course I did it!"

With a flash of light, a little girl who looked about eleven or twelve years old, with delicate features and two small buns in her hair, appeared out of thin air next to the avatar. She was a spiritual projection of Gu Ling'er.

She stood with her hands on her hips, her face beaming with a "praise me" expression.

"I created this from a wisp of my own primordial spiritual energy, and secretly incorporated a bit of the superficial Daoist principles of the 'Eastern Emperor's Thousand Illusions Dao' that you possess, so it looks ordinary, but it can be used to trick people..."

"Oh no, it's perfect for dealing with these evil spirits! It can directly annihilate their life force and soul power, guaranteeing they're completely dead, leaving not even a trace of their soul behind!"

Gu Ling'er explained triumphantly.

"The Thousand Illusions Path of the Eastern Emperor..."

Gu Sheng's heart stirred.

This supreme inheritance, obtained from the Eastern Emperor's Secret Realm, is profound and unfathomable. After obtaining it, he was always busy with various affairs and dealing with powerful enemies, and was unable to calm down to study and cultivate it in depth.

He asked through his avatar.

"Ling'er, can you share and apply my understanding of the Eastern Emperor's Thousand Illusions Path?"

"Of course!"

Gu Ling'er nodded vigorously, her little face full of confidence.

"Our souls are connected at the source! What you can do, I can naturally use too! And I'm not afraid to tell you, you're always fighting and killing and don't have time to study properly, but when I have nothing to do, I've thoroughly studied and deduced all the things you know!"

"I find the Eastern Emperor's Thousand Illusions Path particularly interesting; I might even have a slightly deeper understanding of it than you do now!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng felt a little embarrassed. He had many opportunities, but due to being tied up with worldly affairs, he had not been able to fully utilize them.

The Eastern Emperor's Thousand Illusions Path is infinitely profound. If one can master it deeply, it will have incredible uses in disguise, stealth, illusion, and even in combat.

"Once this matter is settled, I must calm down and reflect properly."

He made up his mind secretly.

Pulling himself back to reality, Gu Sheng's sharp gaze swept across the ancient forest around him. Since the Ancestor of Immortality already suspected his identity, he might have even notified various forces outside the secret realm to lay a trap.

Therefore, he can use this avatar to create a huge uproar in this secret realm! He can draw everyone's attention to it, allowing his true self to escape unscathed, act calmly, and completely clear himself of suspicion!
……

On the other side, in another area of ​​the secret realm.

Gu Sheng and Situ Qingfeng quickly determined their direction.

"Brother Gu, this way."

Situ Qingfeng seemed quite familiar with the place. He pointed to a direction bathed in the glow of the sunset and took the initiative to lead the way.

"According to my mother's memories, not far ahead should be the main hall of this 'Golden Roc's Nest' secret realm, which is also the core area where the Golden-Winged Roc once lived. The greatest opportunity is likely to be there."

Gu Sheng glanced at Situ Qingfeng with some surprise, not expecting him to know so much about this secret realm.

Situ Qingfeng noticed his gaze and explained as he walked quickly forward.

“Brother Gu, there’s no need to be confused. I know this secret realm inside and out, not because I’ve been here before, but because of… my mother.”

She was no ordinary person; a trace of ancient demon blood, somewhat related to the Golden-Winged Roc, flowed through her veins.

Before her death, she used a secret bloodline inheritance technique to imprint most of her memories and map information about this secret realm deep into my soul.

His tone carried a hint of reminiscence and sadness, but more so, a firm resolve.

"Therefore, I know where there might be danger, where there might be treasure, and I also know how to avoid some unnecessary trouble and get to the core area as quickly as possible."

Gu Sheng suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

Such memories inherited through bloodlines are truly mysterious.

Led by Situ Qingfeng, the two swiftly traversed the swirling clouds and dazzling sunset. The ground beneath their feet was soft and imbued with spiritual energy, and many rare and exotic herbs and plants grew all around them, but neither of them had time to pay them any attention.

Suddenly, from a dense, strange thicket of trees radiating multicolored light ahead, came an extremely faint rustling sound!

The sound was very soft, like something stepping on fallen leaves, but it was immediately softened and concealed. Clearly, a creature had discovered them and was secretly observing them, and had slowed its footsteps, seemingly to assess their strength and intentions.

Gu Sheng's eyes narrowed, and his powerful mental energy swept forward like a tidal wave!

However, when his mental energy touched the thicket, it seemed to encounter an invisible barrier, cleverly distorted and shielded, making it impossible to clearly perceive the situation behind it! Clearly, the opponent possessed a special magical artifact capable of shielding mental energy perception!
"Hiding their heads and tails, sneaking around!"

Gu Sheng snorted coldly, his voice not loud, but carrying a sharp penetrating force, and shouted directly towards the back of the bushes.

"Get out here! Don't even think about harming Young Master Situ!"

His words were both a warning and a test, positioning himself as a loyal protector.

From behind the bushes, a very faint sound, as if a sigh of relief had been heard, seemed to come. Immediately afterward, there was a rustling sound, and a figure slowly emerged from behind the bushes, parting the colorful branches and leaves.

The figures that emerged from behind the bushes were not one person, but three! They were all dressed in the uniforms of the Purple Cloud Sect, with a mixture of lingering fear and forced, ingratiating smiles on their faces.

The leader quickly cupped his hands in apology, his tone tinged with a hint of obsequiousness.

"So it's Young Master Situ and this... senior! It's a misunderstanding, a huge misunderstanding! We only saw some figures in the distance and thought they were from other sects. Fearing for our safety, we hid to spy on them, and almost offended you, Young Master and Senior. Please forgive us!"

Situ Qingfeng and Gu Sheng exchanged a knowing glance. Situ Qingfeng stepped forward, a perfectly timed look of confusion on his face, and asked.

"Oh? We're all fellow members of the Divine Cult here to explore the secret realm. Why are you so wary, to the point of having to hide and spy on us?"

The leading disciple of the Purple Cloud Cult gave a wry smile and explained. (End of Chapter)
