Practicing Qi to snatch a Yuanying for marriage? Do you think this is a female channel?

Leaving aside all the messy stuff, the key thing is his strength. Even the Holy Son Lin Chen died at his hands. There are even rumors that when the Holy Son was suppressed and killed, he was in the form of a Great Ascension Realm cultivator.

Faced with such a formidable enemy, they didn't even have the thought of harboring evil intentions. All they could think of was to deceive the enemy. They dared not obey this divine decree!
As for the Cangxuan Holy Land, needless to say, Gu Shenge's name is widely known, and she is a figure that even the higher-ups of the Holy Land must treat with utmost care.

Moreover, he has taken good care of the cultivators of the Cangxuan Holy Land and is their ally.

He is disrespectful to the gods... So be it!
Given the current situation, there's really no other way. The most urgent thing is to find Gu Shenge as soon as possible and reunite with her.

Aside from these two major sects, the cultivators outside of them were filled with murderous intent. They had been brainwashed by the scriptures in the tower during this period, and after receiving the divine decree, they had no scruples whatsoever.

Even if there were Mahayana Realm cultivators in front of them now, they would still launch a death attack with the support of the divine decree.

"boom!"

The energy vortex shattered and collapsed completely, and the world returned to calm. However, in the eyes of those cultivators, there was still an unusual movement in the sky. A huge red flag was fluttering in the sky, rustling in the wind.

The flag was moving, as if a monk was carrying it, moving quickly through the area.

Everyone understood that it was a mark left by the gods, and that was Gu Shenge's location.

At this moment, Gu Shenge, who had concealed her cultivation, slowly descended to the ground and came to Cui Xuan'er and Jun Mengqing's side.

Jun Mengqing helped the two accompanying cultivators recover from their injuries, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Gu Shenge return safely.

"It's a good thing you arrived in time, otherwise we would probably all be dead here."

"I've been looking, but I haven't been able to find it," Gu Shenge said helplessly.

From their perspective, Gu Shenge showed no unusual movements or flags, appearing to be the same as before.

"Alright, quickly gather everyone who has scattered back. Something's not right at the outer gate; we should be careful," Gu Shenge told Cui Xuan'er.

Cui Xuan'er immediately sent a message, instructing everyone to return to the tower.

Although that place was supposedly a church of the gods, it was still quite good for them to escape the dangers outside.

On the way, Jun Mengqing talked about what she had seen and heard, especially about the cloud monsters that kept gathering. With such a huge number of them, it was hard to guarantee that they wouldn't be able to break into the White Tower.

After the group returned to the White Tower, many cultivators had already returned, but they all looked worried.

These white towers no longer seemed to be able to protect them. They were also tainted by the spirit-devouring insects, and their spiritual power was constantly fading, making them gradually weaker.

When Gu Shenge rushed back, he saw their dejected appearance, which left him speechless.

Upon seeing him, the group's eyes lit up as if they had seen their savior, their eyes filled with excitement.

Without further ado, Gu Shenge released her cultivation upon entering the White Tower, enveloping everyone with scorching energy. The crowd opened their minds, awaiting Gu Shenge's baptism.

Gu Shenge activated her cultivation to extract the spirit-devouring worms from their bodies and annihilate them.

Everyone's condition returned to normal, but the cloud of energy outside the gate had begun to spread into the church. The barriers that had once easily resisted the cloud of energy had disappeared, and now the cultivators were using their own power to resist it.

Upon seeing this, Gu Shenge summoned the Primordial Dao Bell, whose divine patterns shone brightly, and as it rang, it emitted ripples of the Great Dao.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the clouds dispersed, protecting the white pagoda, and peace returned to the pagoda once more.

The group breathed a sigh of relief, but their brows still betrayed their worry, for they were now trapped here.

This world doesn't seem like a secret realm at all, but rather a strange place where there are no opportunities; it's just a place designed to lure people in and achieve some kind of goal.

When they each began their secluded cultivation, the outside world was already in chaos. Gu Shenge's divine sense could extend for five hundred miles, and he had even seen some cloud monsters. Black demons roamed and roared through the thick clouds, and some of them were carrying half-eaten corpses in their hands. The scene was bloody and cruel.

These monsters seem to have some kind of estrangement and conflict with those so-called gods, and there are disputes between them.
Gu Shenge did not make a fuss. If they fell into chaos first, that would be the best, as she could then lead these people to reap the benefits.

More than half a month later, two cultivators from the Jietian Sect came to the door. They were protected by the gods, so they were able to travel through the thick clouds without being affected in the slightest.

The spirit-devouring insects could not cause them any harm; their faith allowed them to remain safe and sound in the clouds.

Two Jietian Sect cultivators stood outside the tower, where the Dao bell rang and divine runes cascaded down like a waterfall, sheltering the entire tower.

The scattered Dao patterns exuded waves of pressure, and their scorching, sacred aura made people tremble.

The cultivators inside, seeing that the two were completely unaffected, suddenly turned grim. After all, they were unaffected by the clouds outside the sect, so they must be followers of those so-called gods. Those guys had always been hostile to them and even tried to attack Gu Shenge, which they would not allow.

The two men felt a chill in their hearts when they saw the solemn, cold, and gloomy expressions of the cultivators inside.

"You...we're here to see Gu Shenge. What do you want?"

Later, Jun Mengqing heard that they were cultivators from the Jietian Sect and had already arrived at the door. Upon seeing them, she frowned and asked, "What do you want with Gu Shenge?"

"Saintess!"

"Greetings, Saintess!"

The two quickly bowed, showing utmost respect and sincerity.

“Holy Maiden, we learned of Gu Shenge’s whereabouts through the divine oracle, so we came here specifically to seek refuge with Gu Shenge.”

"Are you sure it wasn't divine decree that led them to attack Gu Shenge?" Jun Mengqing asked.

The two men's expressions changed slightly, and one of them quickly said, "Holy Maiden, there is indeed such a saying. We received an imperial edict in the scriptures to kill Gu Shenge, but we know our own strength. Moreover, he has a close relationship with the Holy Maiden, so why would we choose to take action? This time, we are here to seek refuge with Senior Gu and also to inform you that he has been marked. I guess all the cultivators from all sides are rushing here right now!"

Jun Mengqing's expression changed drastically. Gu Shenge had actually been marked? She looked at Gu Shenge behind her with concern. The latter hadn't expected it either, but quickly came to terms with it.

This secret realm is controlled by those so-called gods. It's not surprising that my every move is being monitored in this world. (End of Chapter)
