They still retained some basic rationality; they had heard of Gu Shenge's strength.

While there was indeed a purpose of exchanging skills, my main motivation was to catch a glimpse of Jun Mengqing's beautiful face. If this turned into an enmity, it wouldn't be good for anyone.

The scarred youth's gaze darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Fellow Daoist Gu, we only want to spar; you don't need to be so hostile towards us!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shenge scoffed, "I know it's a friendly spar, so you can all come at me at once, so I can give you individual guidance."

"Ah! Gu Shengge, you are arrogant! My name is Peng Hao, a first-level Dao Integration cultivator. Do you dare to fight me!"

The man next to the scarred youth seemed to have reached his limit, and stood up angrily, his eyes burning.

Gu Shengge lowered her gaze slightly: "Alright, then you go first."

Gu Shenge felt somewhat helpless. There were probably too many fellow disciples present, and the core disciples of the Nine Peaks really didn't want to lose face, so they were unwilling to go up.

It doesn't matter, I can still ensure efficiency by doing them one by one.

In the short time it took, Peng Hao had already landed on the arena. This was a special competition venue of the Cangxuan Holy Land, which was self-contained by the laws of space and had a solid spatial barrier that could easily withstand all impacts from those below the Mahayana Realm.

Gu Shenge felt it was a waste of time to go there; the matter could have been resolved with a single slap here.

Gu Shenge took a step and landed on the arena in an instant, standing right in front of Peng Hao.

Peng Hao didn't react at first, and after a couple of moments of stunned silence, he stepped back in astonishment.

It wasn't that he reacted too slowly, but rather that he didn't see or notice how Gu Shenge suddenly teleported in front of him.

There was no fluctuation in the laws, principles, or even space itself. There was only one explanation for this: the other party's cultivation was far superior to his own!
However, according to rumors, he only recently broke through to the Dao Integration Realm. How could someone with five hundred years of Dao Integration Realm cultivation be no match for a mere novice who has just entered the Dao Integration Realm?

Incredulous, after a brief hesitation, he suddenly raised his hand and threw a punch. The fist was covered in flashing runes and the sounds of dragons and tigers could be heard. The fierce wind from the punch stirred up a gust of wind and made a loud bang.

He threw a punch, which landed on Gu Shenge. At least in his eyes, the punch did indeed hit Gu Shenge, but his fist did not feel any resistance at all, as if he had hit a ball of air.

Outside the arena, the crowd stared blankly. They also saw Peng Hao's fist strike Gu Shenge, but the fist just passed right through Gu Shenge's body. Was his body just an illusory projection?

"Behind you! He's behind you!" a disciple shouted.

Upon hearing this, Peng Hao immediately turned his fist and punched behind him.

Gu Shenge was indeed behind him. His fist still hit, but it was still an empty strike, he missed.
"Up there! Up there!" another disciple shouted.

He looked up and saw Gu Shenge standing directly above him. When their eyes met, Gu Shenge gave a disdainful smile.

Peng Hao was completely enraged. He roared and burst into raging flames, which instantly filled a large part of the arena. Gu Shenge's figure was also engulfed in the flames.

Peng Hao scanned the surroundings, searching for Gu Shenge's location, but could not find her.

"Outside! Outside!" Another disciple from the Cangxuan Holy Land reminded them.

"Ah!" Peng Hao roared and peered out of the flames, only to see countless figures of Gu Shenge outside the flames. In an instant, thousands upon thousands of Gu Shenge figures appeared, making him feel cold all over and suffocated.

"Gu Shengge, how dare you play me for fools!" he roared.

Gu Shenge said coldly, "Are you playing games? I told you one person is no match for me, but you wouldn't listen. Come at me all at once, don't waste my time."

His arrogant attitude made everyone's faces extremely gloomy. The scarred youth roared, "Since Fellow Daoist Gu is so arrogant, we'll have to teach you a lesson!"

The remaining eight also attacked simultaneously, storming into the arena. They unleashed a barrage of spells, shattering Gu Shenge's figures. They repeatedly destroyed all of Gu Shenge's forms, but none of them were real; they were all illusory energy bodies, easily broken upon contact. Moreover, this time, they couldn't find any trace of Gu Shenge no matter what they did. Not only them, but even the disciples watching from outside couldn't see her.

"Gu Shenge, where are you? Where are you?" Peng Hao roared.

The scarred youth also shouted angrily, "Gu Shengge! Come out here! Why don't you dare to fight us head-on!"

As soon as they finished speaking, a figure slowly appeared in front of them—it was Gu Shenge!

Enraged, Peng Hao immediately attacked, unleashing a scorching fist imprint that was almost impossible to dodge. Gu Shenge's figure dissipated as the fist wind swept past, proving it was still a fake!

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"Gu Shengge, are you going to fight or not?!"

Peng Hao was furious and wanted to tear Gu Shenge apart.

At this moment, a figure slowly appeared behind him, and everyone shouted to warn him.

Peng Hao scoffed, "Heh, trying to fool me! Gu Shenge is all talk and no action, this is all fake!"

Everyone agreed and continued to look around warily.

Peng Hao suddenly exclaimed, "Gu Shenge, he's behind you!"

Everyone turned around and indeed saw Gu Shenge's figure appearing, but they didn't take it seriously at all.

Not only them, but also Gu Shenge's figure appeared behind every disciple watching the battle outside.

The scarred youth sneered: "It seems that Fellow Daoist Gu is powerless to resist and only knows how to play some petty tricks."

These words were spoken with sarcasm, and as he spoke, he slapped the figure in front of him, wanting to shatter Gu Shenge's fake clone.

"Snapped!"

His hand landed on Gu Shenge, and the real touch made his eyes widen instantly.

"The real body is there!"

"The real body!"

Everyone exclaimed.

Gu Shenge grabbed the scarred youth's arm, pulled him around, and turned him around. Her right arm was already around his neck.

The others wanted to help and rushed towards Gu Shenge, who was next to the scarred youth, but just as they were about to make a move, a strong arm appeared around their necks and tightened its grip.

It wasn't just the Gu Shenge with the scarred youth who was real; the Gu Shenge behind them was also real, including those behind the spectating disciples. They all made their moves, using the exact same method to strangle them.

"Take a deep breath, dizziness is normal."

Each of the "Gu Shengge" uttered the same sentence, and the disciples were all strangled until their eyes rolled back. The moment their arms were locked, their cultivation seemed to be imprisoned, and they could not activate it at all.

The suffocating, death-threatening feeling terrified them. How could there be so many Gu Shengges... and why were they about to die?

Just as they felt they were about to faint, the pressure on their necks suddenly disappeared, and Gu Shenge's figure vanished as well. (End of Chapter)
