Chapter 249 Defeating All the Prodigies

In the Black Dragon Mountain plane, with the emergence of the Reincarnation Cult, the Immortal Wood Group opened up a battlefront at each of the eastern and western ends of the Black Earth Continent, simultaneously waging war against the followers of the two gods.

A large number of mercenaries were transported from the rear of the Immortal Kingdom.

The entire continent was engulfed in constant warfare.

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed.

During the war.

Many mercenaries unleash their potential in life-or-death battles, like gold being sifted from sand, their seeds of immortality shining ever brighter.

Within the Black Earth Continent, countless potential cultivators are working hard in various military bases, all eager to shine in this interdimensional war and gain favor with the group's top management for intensive training.

in this period.

Although Gu Qing did not appear on the front lines of the battlefield, his reputation grew louder and louder.

The news that Qin Hong, Mu Yemi, and several other promising cultivators had challenged Gu Qing but were easily suppressed by him spread like wildfire throughout the legion bases of the Black Earth Continent.

This incident has caused quite a stir.

Many cultivators from other mercenary bases, drawn by its reputation, have come to Zhenhai City, even piloting their own warships.

When they arrived in Zhenhai City, they heard a completely different version.

According to news circulating among local cultivators in Zhenhai City, Qin Hong and his two companions challenged Gu Qing, but before they even officially exchanged blows, they all collapsed to the ground, unable to move, before they could even reach Gu Qing.

Qin Hong and his two companions did not want to lose too much face.

but.

More than half a year ago, the three men's disgraceful behavior in front of the mercenary base had already become widely known.

The three of them couldn't even embellish themselves.

The many immortal cultivators nurtured by the Immortal Wood Group caused quite a stir upon their arrival in Zhenhai City.

Qin Hong, Mu Ye Mi, and others were not nobodys; their supernatural aura configuration consisted of eight black and two red.

Some of the mercenaries possessed talents and abilities comparable to Qin Hong and his group.

If Gu Qing could crush Qin Hong and the other two, he could naturally crush the immortal seeds who came from other bases.

More than half a year has passed.

Many people stubbornly refused to believe it and went to Gu Qing's mercenary base to ask for his advice. As expected, they didn't even get to see Gu Qing.

The moment these people stepped into Gu Qing's base, they were instantly and ruthlessly crushed, receiving the same treatment as Qin Hong and the other two.

Are these people weak?

Of course it's not weak.

In other places, they are the pride of the nation, admired by countless people.

He can easily kill ordinary divine cultivators who are a whole realm higher than himself.

but.

These kinds of immortal seeds don't even need to use their swords in front of Gu Qing.

Zhenhai City.

Inside the Eight Immortals Pavilion.

Snapped!

In the center of the restaurant, on a high platform made of white jade, a monk who looked like a storyteller was telling a story with great enthusiasm, holding a white jade fan in his hand.

"As you all know, Dugu Yifang from the third mercenary base on the Black Earth Continent has also come to Zhenhai City today."

"It is said that Dugu Yifang's supernatural aura configuration is seven black and three red."

"This is going to be interesting."

"Dugu Yifang is renowned for his swordsmanship. It is said that he cultivated a Heavenly Grade True Technique and comprehended the Void-Breaking Sword Technique, which is a top-level technique that combines the mysteries of destruction and space."

"Come, come, come."

"I, Bai Yuzi, am honest and trustworthy. If you have your picks, feel free to place your bets."

"Does anyone think Dugu Yifang will win?"

"What?!"

"You guys are going too far, betting that Dugu Yifang will lose within ten steps."

"There's also a five-step version?"

"No, none of you think Dugu Yifang has a chance?"

"boom----"

At the betting site set up by Bai Yuzi at the Eight Immortals Pavilion, before everyone had finished placing their bets, an extremely domineering sword intent came from afar, instantly scattering countless white clouds in the sky and revealing azure blue.

only.

This aura came quickly and went even faster.

Before the onlookers could even reach the base where Gu Qing was stationed, the powerful sword intent crumbled in the sky and scattered in all directions.

"Hahaha."

"Bai Yuzi, I guess I won again this time, but I'm losing money."

Inside the Eight Immortals Pavilion.

A mercenary carrying a gourd of wine laughed loudly and shouted.

"Don't rush."

"How could I possibly shortchange you?"

"You're betting on two moves, right? Odds 1:1.05?"

Inside Zhenhai City.

Almost every restaurant has such a betting platform.

Whenever another cultivator challenges Gu Qing, the restaurants in the city become extremely busy.

At the mercenary base.

Gu Qing continued his secluded cultivation aboard his private warship. Although Dugu Yifang's Void-Breaking Sword Dao was of high quality, the level of its profundity that he had comprehended was ultimately lacking.

Inside the base.

Dugu Yifang stood up with trembling hands and a dejected expression.

Looking at the various cultivators watching the drama unfold at the entrance of the camp, Dugu Yifang's expression grew increasingly grim.

The moment they stepped out of the camp, a chilling, blood-red aura of killing intent spread out, instantly silencing the previously chattering crowd.

As Dugu Yifang transformed into a beam of light and disappeared above Zhenhai City, the suppressed voices instantly turned into roaring laughter. Everyone looked in the direction where Dugu Yifang had disappeared, and some cultivators revealed a mocking look in their eyes.

Jia Meiqian and Chen Ang were at the entrance of the camp.

Looking at the bustling crowd outside, a trace of worry was buried deep in the eyes of both of them.

"Old Chen."

"This might not be a good thing!"

"As the saying goes, people fear becoming famous, just as pigs fear growing fat. These days, Boss Gu has defeated far too many potential immortal cultivators."

"No one can take ten steps in Boss Gu's domain."

"or----"

"Let's go and persuade Boss Gu to go easy on them, at least to save them some face."

Jia hesitated, saying he had no money.

"hehe."

"Do you think Boss Gu is a pig?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Ang smiled.

"Hey, Lao Chen, don't slander me. I'm just worried about Boss Gu's safety."

"He is currently in the eye of the storm."

"If we're not careful, unforeseen changes may occur."

"You know perfectly well the awkward situation the three of us brothers are in at Xianmu Group—"

Upon hearing this, Chen Ang also stopped smiling.

Looking at the bustling crowd outside the camp, he sighed, "Old Jia, do you think Boss Gu doesn't know our current situation?"

"This is an omen of 'cooking oil over a raging fire' —"

"But in any case."

"In our world of cultivation, strength is ultimately paramount."

"Boss Gu understands better than we do that only strength can break our current predicament."

Five years later.

The war between the East China Sea and the Reincarnation Cult is becoming increasingly fierce.

However, Gu Qing's team was still kept under wraps by the Xianmu Group and remained stationed in Zhenhai City.

However, on the western front of the Black Earth Continent, another prodigy has risen.

A year ago, this prodigy crossed two major realms on the western front and killed a Divine Realm cultivator.

This person replicated Gu Qing's previous achievements.

From this day forward.

This person and Gu Qing were jokingly referred to as the Black Dragon Mountain Twins by many mercenaries of the Xianmu Group.

one year later.

Outside Zhenhai City, a burly man carrying a totem appeared silently.
