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

His aura was obscure and cold, as if he had merged with the surrounding shadows. If one did not consciously perceive him, one would almost ignore his presence.

Standing on the right was a woman also wearing a large cloak, but one made of a lighter material with dark purple patterns. The wide brim of the cloak covered most of her face, revealing only her beautifully shaped chin and a bright red lip.

Even under the cloak, her figure remained gracefully undulating, and every gesture naturally exuded an alluring charm that stirred the heart, as if she were constantly radiating an invisible attraction.

Seemingly noticing Gu Sheng's sweeping gaze, the cloaked woman suddenly let out a soft laugh, her voice charming and seductive, as if carrying a small hook.

"Little brother, you've been looking at your older sister for so long... are you interested in her?"

She slightly raised her chin, and in the shadow of her hat brim, a pair of captivatingly beautiful eyes seemed to be gazing at Gu Sheng. Her red lips parted slightly, and her breath was as sweet as orchids.

"Would you like to... come closer so your older sister can get a good look at you?"

As soon as the cloaked woman finished speaking her charming and seductive words, an invisible and intangible force, which seemed to stir the most primal desires deep within people's hearts, quietly rippled out like spring water, silently enveloping Gu Sheng.

This force is not a direct attack, but more like a temptation, a pull, attempting to undermine a person's will and manipulate their behavior.

Gu Sheng immediately felt an irresistible thought growing in his heart—to walk over, get closer to her, and see her face clearly… as if it were the most beautiful and most worthwhile thing in the world to explore.

"Seduction techniques?"

Gu Sheng's eyes instantly regained their clarity, and he sneered inwardly.

Within his sea of ​​consciousness, his spiritual power, which had undergone three refinements and had already materialized, suddenly trembled, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up vast ripples!
The Daoist aura of Siming Dao, which discerns falsehood and stabilizes one's mind, flowed accordingly, instantly dispelling the invisible seductive power that had invaded his mind and tried to guide his behavior, and regaining absolute control over his body and consciousness!
He paused only slightly before standing firmly, his gaze turning icy as he looked at the cloaked woman.

"what?"

The cloaked woman let out a soft exclamation, and a hint of obvious surprise seemed to flash in the shadows beneath her hood.

She clearly hadn't expected that her Heavenly Charm Holy Land's unique seductive technique, powerful enough to make even cultivators of the same level sway for a moment, would be so easily and quickly broken by a mere Sect Realm youth! The other party didn't even make a noticeable struggle!
"careful!"

She quickly abandoned her alluring demeanor, her voice becoming serious as she addressed the burly man beside her and the man in black.

"This kid is strange! His mental energy is frighteningly condensed, and his sea of ​​consciousness is exceptionally stable! My 'Heavenly Charm' is almost ineffective against him! I'm afraid ordinary mental attacks won't have much effect on him either!"

Upon hearing this, the gaunt man, who had been silent and shrouded in the shadows of black, had a slight glint in his eyes from under his hood, as if his interest in Gu Sheng had grown even stronger, but he did not make any immediate move.

The burly man's surprise deepened upon hearing his companion's warning, but it was quickly replaced by anger at being "offended." A mere Sect Realm cultivator had not only blocked his oppressive aura but also ignored the Heavenly Enchantress Saintess's seductive arts?
However, before he could make his next move, Gu Sheng had already taken the initiative!

He made a grabbing motion in the air with his right hand, and the space within his palm rippled slightly. Suddenly, a longsword appeared, its entire body a dark bronze color, its shape simple and unadorned, yet its blade shimmering with a faint starlight and an aura of sharpness capable of severing all obstacles! It was none other than the "Northern Star God-Slaying Sword," which he had condensed with his own internal energy and sword intent!
"Huh? You dare to draw your weapon first?"

Upon seeing this, the burly man did not get angry but laughed, though his smile was full of cold killing intent and disdain.

"It seems you've become arrogant after gaining some skill! I'll show you what it means to be a venerable person who cannot be insulted!"

With one step he took, the entire abandoned hall seemed to tremble! The incomparably powerful blood energy was no longer just released as pressure, but like a tangible smoke billowed up from above his head!

His blood and energy, as scorching as a furnace and as heavy as a mountain, carrying a savage and ferocious aura like that of a wild beast, once again pressed down fiercely on Gu Sheng and his companions! This time, he not only intended to crush their will, but also to directly crush their physical bodies with absolute power!

"Trying to negotiate with me? You'd better take three of my punches and survive first!"

Faced with this suppression, which was even more terrifying than the previous pure pressure and contained a substantial impact of qi and blood, Gu Sheng's lips curled into a cold smile.

"Comparing vital energy and blood? Comparing physical bodies?"

He murmured something, and then the immense blood and qi within his body, which had been tempered day and night by the Thirty-Six Heavenly Techniques and reshaped by the "no destruction, no construction" principle during Shi Wufeng's self-destruction, erupted without reservation!

"boom--!!!"

A dazzling, pale golden aura of energy erupted from every pore of Gu Sheng's body, like a dormant volcano awakening! The radiance was so intense that it instantly made him appear like a golden deity descended to earth!

His vital energy, like a dragon, coiled around his body, emitting a faint dragon's roar. Its condensation, its vigorous vitality, and its contained power were in no way inferior to the Venerable Man's Vital Energy Smoke, and even in terms of "quality," it seemed to have a slight tendency to surpass it! It was as if Gu Sheng was a true body cultivator who had cultivated to an extremely high level!
"what?!"

The burly man's pupils suddenly contracted to pinpoints, his sinister grin freezing instantly, replaced by utter shock and disbelief! "This blood energy... is close to the level of a Great Perfection Golden Body?! How is that possible! You're only at the Sect Realm!!"

He had originally planned to use his absolute advantage in qi and blood, and physical strength, to crush these intruding rats like insects. But the qi and blood bursting forth from this young man in the Sect Realm completely disrupted his plans! This was hardly the qi and blood of a Sect Realm cultivator! This was clearly the foundation that only a Body Cultivation Venerable could possess!
In a flash, the burly man's mind raced, and he instantly changed his strategy. Pure physical crushing was no longer feasible; the opponent's blood and qi were beyond imagination. Even if he could win in a head-on clash, he would inevitably be injured by the opponent's strange blood and qi backlash, which would be a net loss.

A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes as he raised his right hand and clenched it in the air!
"Om-!"

A resounding clang of metal echoed throughout the hall! A blinding golden light suddenly erupted from his body, rapidly condensing, stretching, and taking shape in his palm, transforming into a gigantic battle blade with a ferocious and domineering design!

The hilt was three feet long, entirely dark gold, and engraved with the pattern of a demon's head. The blade was over ten feet long and as wide as a door panel, its surface a dark, blood-red color, as if viscous blood was slowly flowing inside, even before it was swung.

An intense, pungent aura of blood and chilling killing intent filled the air, causing the temperature in the entire hall to plummet and the air to seem to echo with the wails of countless wronged souls!
"Such a heavy killing intent! This blade... has drunk the blood of at least tens of thousands of living beings! Its killing intent is completely natural, almost forming a domain!" Shen Qingtan's voice, hidden behind her mask, carried a hint of fear as she immediately warned Gu Sheng.

"Gu Sheng, be careful! This blade is extraordinary; the wielder's killing techniques must be extremely ruthless!"

Gu Sheng's gaze swept over the ghost-headed broadsword, his eyes remaining completely unmoved.

He took a step forward, seemingly ignoring the terrifying aura of the burly man that was a mixture of blood and sword energy. His figure was as fast as lightning, and he delivered a sword strike in mid-air!

This sword strike, seemingly simple and direct, lacked dazzling sword light and deafening roar, yet wherever the sword's edge pointed, space seemed to be silently cleaved with a subtle trace. A chilling sword intent that could sever everything and annihilate all laws had already locked onto the burly man!
"court death!"

The burly man was thoroughly enraged by Gu Sheng's simple sword strike, which was almost "contemptuous". He roared and gripped the huge ghost-headed broadsword tightly with both hands. The powerful true energy and violent blood of the third level of the Venerable Realm in his body surged into the blade at the same time!
"Purple Emperor's Heaven-Devouring Slash!"

He unleashed a true Saint-level ultimate technique! Although his Venerable Realm cultivation level prevented him from unleashing its full power, the power of heaven and earth and the sword intent he drew upon were already terrifying beyond compare!
The crimson light on the Ghost Head Greatsword instantly surged, transforming into a vast, overwhelming crimson blade of light, like a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood! The blade of light tore through the void, emitting a shrill whistle like the wailing of ghosts and gods, carrying a terrifying will to devour everything and annihilate heaven and earth, transforming into a heaven-piercing blade of light that slashed fiercely down towards Gu Sheng's seemingly insignificant sword!

Before the blade even arrived, the terrifying killing intent and blade aura had already turned the faces of the four women, Tantai Xueli, who were watching from behind, pale and made it difficult for them to breathe!
"A sacred realm ultimate technique!"

Tantai Xueli gasped softly, her pretty face instantly turning solemn, her beautiful eyes filled with worry.

"To be able to unleash such a complete Saint Realm sword technique... even if this person isn't a Holy Son of a Holy Land, he must be a true disciple of some Holy Lord or Supreme Elder! Brother Gu Sheng is in danger!"

Without hesitation, she flipped her fair hand, revealing a pale blue pearl the size of a longan, crystal clear, with what appeared to be a tiny figure sealed inside!
It was the life-saving item left to her by her father, Tantai Mingjing—the "Clone Bead" containing the power of a Saint Realm clone! Her gaze was fixed on the battle, her fingers tightening slightly, ready to crush the bead at any moment and summon her Saint Realm clone to come to her rescue!
Gu Ningshuang's heart clenched in her throat. Her cold eyes were fixed on Gu Sheng, and she bit her lower lip tightly.

It's too late to say, then soon!
The towering crimson blade light and Gu Sheng's seemingly ordinary sword strike finally collided violently in mid-air!

"clang--!!!!!!!"

It was as if two divine mountains had collided, or as if a celestial bell had been struck by a giant hammer! A deafening, terrifying roar, powerful enough to tear the soul apart, suddenly exploded! At the point of impact, blindingly bright light and extremely violent energy turbulence burst forth!
The entire abandoned hall trembled and shook violently! The ground was as if struck by an invisible giant hammer, and from the point of impact, huge spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread for dozens of meters, sending rubble and dust soaring into the sky! The terrifying shockwave of energy spread wildly in all directions like ripples of destruction!

The four women, including Tantai Xue Li, who were the first to be hit, were still severely struck by the aftershocks of the shockwave, even though they had retreated to the edge of the hall!

"puff!"

"Uh!"

The four women groaned simultaneously, their bodies flying backward like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily into the broken wall behind them before barely managing to stop their momentum. Each of them had churning blood and blood trickling from the corners of their mouths, clearly suffering from severe internal injuries from the shock!
Tantai Xueli was the most seriously injured because she was preoccupied with Gu Sheng and was always ready to crush the clone bead. As a result, she was unable to fully raise her protective true energy and her pretty face was as pale as paper.

But she couldn't care less about her injuries at the moment. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anxiety as she looked at the center of the collision, which was shrouded in dust, debris, and still raging energy!
"Brother Gu Sheng!"

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated in the raging wind.

The first thing that catches the eye is Gu Sheng's tall and straight figure, as majestic as a mountain.

He remained standing in the same spot, the ground beneath his feet deeply sunken and riddled with cracks, yet he stood there with his sword in hand, his figure seemingly not having retreated even a single step!

Opposite him, the burly man gripped the ghost-head broadsword tightly with both hands, remaining frozen in place with his hands in a downward slashing posture.

His ferocious, blood-red blade aura had dissipated, and the blade of his incomparably sharp, blood-drinking demon-head broadsword... was now deeply... embedded in Gu Sheng's left shoulder blade?!

No! Upon closer inspection, the blade had indeed struck Gu Sheng's shoulder, even shredding and tearing his clothes to shreds, revealing the crystal-clear, jade-like skin and bones beneath.

However... the blade was merely "embedded" in the flesh and bones, failing to penetrate even an inch! It didn't even leave a decent wound, only a shallow white mark on the translucent skin!

It was as if his all-out strike, imbued with the ultimate techniques of the Holy Realm, had not struck flesh and blood, but rather an immortal monument forged from a ten-thousand-year-old Xuan Iron Divine Crystal!

"This... is impossible!!!"

The burly man's ferocious grin and murderous intent had vanished without a trace, replaced by a look of utter shock and incomprehension as if he had seen a ghost! He knew all too well the power of his strike. It was a fusion of the true essence of the Saint Realm sword technique, his own cultivation at the third level of the Venerable Realm, and all the murderous aura of that vicious blade. Its power was enough to severely injure or even kill an ordinary fourth-level Venerable!
But when the attack struck this mere cultivator at the Grandmaster Realm, it didn't even break his skin?! What is his body made of?!

"Bone Demon! Watch out behind you!"

The cloaked woman's terrified scream suddenly rang out!

The burly man snapped back to his senses! In that instant when he lost his composure and was shocked by the unbelievable sight before him, the figure that had withstood his blade without a scratch vanished into thin air like a ghost!

A chilling, bone-chilling, and deadly sense of crisis instantly coiled around the back of his neck like a venomous snake!

Bone Demon was, after all, a Venerable Realm expert who had experienced countless battles, and his fighting instincts were extremely strong. At the critical moment, he let out a beast-like growl and forcefully twisted his thick waist, trying to turn the Ghost Head Greatsword around to block behind him!
However, he was still too slow.

Or rather, Gu Sheng's speed was so fast that it exceeded the limits of his reaction!

A blurry, almost nonexistent afterimage appeared as if teleported behind him, the ancient longsword in its hand carrying a cold, resolute air of severing destiny, silently slashing towards his neck! The speed of this sword was so fast that even Bone Demon, a dignified third-level Venerable, could only see a faint, residual trajectory! (End of Chapter)
