My equipment is designed for cultivation; I started by slaughtering my way through a small world.

No sooner had Wei Xuan left the capital than news of his departure reached outside the palace.

It was then passed on to Gu Qing.

It must be admitted that the intelligence capabilities of the Hidden Mist Sect are terrifyingly strong.

Upon receiving the message from the Hidden Mist Sect, Gu Qing felt a slight chill in his heart and a lingering fear at the sect's intelligence capabilities.

Fortunately, Gu Qing has already obtained the status of a guest elder of the Misty Hidden Sect. As long as there are no major changes in interests in the short term, the Misty Hidden Sect should not easily betray him.

They waited for two more days until news came from the Hidden Mist Sect confirming that Wei Xuan had entered the Qinling Mountains.

That's when Gu Qing started causing trouble.

After observing secretly for the past few days, Gu Qing already knew the entire area of ​​Wei's capital, except for the imperial city, which he hadn't visited.

There are two extremely important places in the entire Wei Kingdom.

The first place is the imperial city where the Wei family lives, and the second place is the royal square, which was built as a key project in the capital. In the center of this square, there is a statue more than 100 meters high, which is a sculpture of Wei Qingcang, the patriarch of the Wei family.

Every day, a large number of people from the State of Wei come here to kneel and worship. It is said that as long as one sincerely respects the ancestor of the Wei family, one may receive a response from the statue and be selected into the Wei Imperial Guard, thus embarking on the path to immortality.

This imperial guard, numbering nearly a million, was a key force in the rise and continued growth of the Wei family.

Gu Qing came here intending to repeat his old tricks.

They also lured the last Golden Core Realm cultivator in the Wei family's imperial city to another location.

Looking towards the center of the Royal Square, one could see an elite squad of Foundation Establishment cultivators guarding various directions around the statue. Many Wei citizens who came to kneel and worship could only get as close as about a hundred meters to the statue.

"Is there something strange about this statue?"

Gu Qing's divine sense and spiritual power spread towards the front of the square. He could clearly sense that as the people knelt in worship, a special energy similar to spiritual power overflowed from their bodies and gathered on the statue.

"Could it be the legendary incense-burning faith?"

In the immortal realm, the path of incense and faith has been integrated into the immortal cultivation system.

However, traditional Taoist cultivators rarely deal with incense and religious beliefs, since dealing with these beliefs would be very troublesome.

Well, whatever's behind the statue, smashing it is definitely the right thing to do.

A thought flashed through Gu Qing's mind, and he turned his gaze to the ten Foundation Establishment team responsible for guarding the area.

These cultivators were unlike traditional immortal cultivators; they wore heavy, blood-red armor and carried refined spears made of black iron. They resembled knights from a divine civilization.

"We can't kill them all in one move."

"We need to send them back to inform the Wei family's Golden Core Realm cultivator and lure them into making a move..."

Thinking of this,

Gu Qing flew straight toward the top of Wei Qingcang's statue. When he was about fifty meters away from the statue, a semi-transparent blood-red barrier popped up on the statue, preventing Gu Qing from getting any closer.

"As expected, they had a backup plan."

"But with just this one protective barrier, you think you can turn the tide?"

Gu Qing's lips curled into a cold smile.

Raising his right hand, a brownish-yellow earth-attribute spiritual light shone on his fist. Gu Qing suddenly swung his hand, unleashing a powerful Immortal Martial-level Shattering Jade Fist enhanced by twenty times the gravity.

"Boom boom..."

Gu Qing's fist slammed into the blood-red barrier, producing a loud bang.

In an instant.

The crimson shield was pierced by the powerful force, exploding into a sky full of crimson energy. Gu Qing's punch continued its momentum and landed on the head of Wei Qingcang's statue.

The 100-meter-tall giant sculpture, carved from jade, was headless in an instant.

Gu Qing landed on top of the headless statue and looked down at the entire square.

The tens of thousands of people kneeling in worship near the square were instantly stunned.

Many ordinary people have never seen cultivators fight in the capital of Wei in their entire lives, so they would never have imagined that someone would be so audacious as to destroy the statue of the Wei family's patriarch in full view of everyone.

"Kid, you're asking for it."

"Grab him, we can't let this kid leave the square alive."

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."

On the ground, the elite cultivators of the Wei family, having recovered from their shock, roared angrily, while others attacked in unison. Three blood-red figures, each wielding a long spear with layers of spiritual light emanating from it, surrounded Gu Qing from three different directions.

Gu Qing flicked three iron wire vine seeds from his fingertips, which transformed into three dazzling green rays that shot out at an even faster speed.

In the blink of an eye.

Three beams of green light collided with the blood-red aura of the three Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Fujislayer".

As soon as Gu Qing finished speaking, the three Foundation Establishment cultivators were horrified to discover that the green light attached to their shields instantly sprouted hundreds or even thousands of tree roots, easily penetrating their spiritual energy shields.

And it relentlessly penetrated into their flesh and blood.

Uh……

Before they could even utter a painful groan, the blood-red light on the three bodies instantly faded and withered. Nourished by the flesh and blood, the three iron vine seeds suddenly sprouted countless black iron-colored leaves and vines tens of meters long.

The three of them flew to the chest of the statue, about fifty meters above the ground, before crashing to the ground with a thud, their armor scattered everywhere.

At the base of the iron wire vine, amidst the scattered crimson armor, not a trace of flesh or blood could be seen. Only a few sections, devoid of life, lay scattered on the ground like decaying bones that had decomposed over decades or even centuries, some of which had crumbled into bone fragments.

"hiss--"

The remaining seven Foundation Establishment cultivators gasped in shock, their eyes widening in disbelief.

It's also the Foundation Establishment stage.

Why did this person kill their three comrades in one move?

As the only Foundation Establishment Stage 10 cultivator in the ten-person elite team, the team leader watched as Gu Qing used the Life-Generating Dao Technique to create a wood-attribute profound mystery that had over twenty layers of spiritual light.

He immediately realized that the person in front of him had actually comprehended the profound power of the Golden Core Realm.

"Gurgle..."

The squad leader swallowed hard in terror, and regaining his senses, he said tremblingly:

"Quickly, hurry to the imperial city and ask the immortal for reinforcements!!"

"This person is not someone you can defeat by force."

"If we can just hold him off and prevent him from escaping, we've won."

Faced with Gu Qing's formidable strength, this Foundation Establishment realm squad leader immediately forgot his boastful words.

The standards have been lowered again and again.

next moment.

The remaining seven Foundation Establishment cultivators gathered together to defend against the rampant growth of iron wire vines on the ground, which were like poisonous dragons surrounding and killing them.

Bang bang bang! !

The seven men, each holding a gun in one hand and a shield in the other, were being whipped around like tops by the iron wire vines on the ground.

A few breaths later.

A beam of light came from the direction of the imperial city. Gu Qing stood on the severed statue. With a light step, the jade statue was covered with cracks from the inside out.

"broken--"

Gu Qing uttered the word softly.

The hundred-meter-tall statue shattered into countless crystal-clear jade-like sand particles, which Gu Qing then transformed into a sky full of dust with a wave of his hand.

"Huh?!"

"What is this?"

Fine, jade-like sand fell from the sky, but a bead the size of a longan, emitting a hazy milky-white light, floated in mid-air and did not fall.

Gu Qing was surprised, and with a thought, she summoned it into her hand.

"Hey kid, stop!"

"No matter who you are, I will grind you to dust today."

Just as Gu Qing grasped the white bead, a furious voice came from afar.

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing didn't say anything harsh.

Instead, he took a step outside the city.

next moment.

Gu Qing's figure had already appeared outside the capital, and the person who came saw him paused slightly.

"Spatial abilities?"

Damn it.

However, the newcomer sensed that Gu Qing had reappeared within his perception range, so he once again revealed a fierce glint in his eyes and chased after him out of the city.

Enemies at the Foundation Establishment stage who possess spatial abilities must be nipped in the bud.

……

the other side.

Gu Qing, dressed in a black robe, arrived at the main gate of the palace alone with a sword.
