332: One person shocks one holy place (two in one)

The person in black sitting by the window was none other than Gu Liangyuan.

Gu Liangyuan listened to it all, a faint smile appearing on his face.

While listening to the conversations around him, he immersed his mind into his Mustard Bracelet.

Inside the Mustard Bracelet, the Demon Concubine's comb floated in mid-air, emitting faint Devilish Qi from its entire body.

Gu Liangyuan carefully extended his Divine Sense, wanting to find the obsession of the Demon Concubine within it.

However, he found that this obsession was sealed by a Restriction.

To break it, he would still need to spend some effort.

Obsession, to a Mortal, is just a thought.

But to a true master of Great Divine Power, a single thought can manifest worlds.

Gu Liangyuan felt that the Demon Concubine's obsession was destined to be extraordinary.

The matter in the South Sea had come to an end; the next steps were to pass through the West Desert, kill Sun Wuchen, go to the Northern Territory, and kill the Six Profound Old Ancestor.

Finally, go to the Central Continent and kill the Hongyun Palace Master!

However, before going to the West Desert, Gu Liangyuan prepared to take the Demon Concubine's obsession first.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, he heard someone suddenly interrupt:

"Di Tian? Your news is too outdated."

"The Ancient Mo Dynasty has already released the news; the killer is not Di Tian, but Gu Liangyuan."

Once these words were spoken, the whole hall was shocked.

Gu Liangyuan?

What's going on?

How did Di Tian get involved with Gu Liangyuan again?

Someone asked:

"Fellow Daoist, what do you mean by that?"

The speaker was full of self-satisfaction:

"This humble one is not talented, but the second uncle of my fellow villager Liu's third maternal uncle is an Inner Sect Disciple of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land."

"According to this person, this news was deduced by the Ancient Mo High Priest using Supreme profound arts."

"Gu Liangyuan's purpose was to frame Di Tian and distance himself."

"The Purple Bamboo Holy Land already has people setting off for the Supreme Sacred Ground to demand an explanation."

Gu Liangyuan frowned upon hearing this.

With eyes closed, he carefully sensed the changes in the surrounding Qi.

Before long, he understood how he had been exposed.

Gu Liangyuan gave a light hum, and the Chaos Qi slowly circulated, connecting his whole body, making him completely detached from this world.

It also completely cut off the prying of the Ancient Mo High Priest.

Gu Liangyuan was not annoyed that his scheme had been exposed; the first thought in his mind was relief.

He was relieved that the Mo Emperor, having been provoked by him time and again, had lost his composure.

Otherwise, if the Mo Emperor had revealed the truth only after he had killed everyone on the list, it would have been a significant trouble for him.

But now, he did not want to stop killing just because his identity was exposed.

"Ding, detected that the Host has formed an intention. Choice mission issued."

"Choice One: He, Di Tian, does his business; what does it have to do with me, Gu Liangyuan? Flee back to the Eastern Continent and deny everything to the death."

"Mission Reward: One Medium Grade Immortal Artifact."

"Choice Two: It was I who killed them, what are you going to do about it? Use your true identity to kill everyone on the list, using this to deter the world."

"Mission Reward: Immortal God Art."

"Name: Immortal God Art."

"Rank: Ancient Immortal Technique."

"Function: This technique is an Ancient Immortal technique, using the Power Of Faith to Cultivate a Divine Body. Humans become Immortals, souls become Gods, hence the name Immortal God Art."

"Power Of Faith?"

Looking at the introduction of this Immortal God Art, Gu Liangyuan was instantly tempted.

"I choose two."

"Ding, Host has chosen successfully. Please complete the mission as soon as possible."

After finishing the selection, Gu Liangyuan turned and walked out of the tavern.

With one step, he spanned tens of thousands of miles.

When he appeared again, he had already arrived outside the mountain gate of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land.

The Cultivator who had been endlessly recounting his inside information suddenly paused.

This pause caused impatience among the others:

"Why are you keeping us in suspense? Speak, speak."

The Cultivator scratched his head and looked in the direction where Gu Liangyuan had previously been:

"Wasn't there someone here just a moment ago?"

"Eh, it seems so."

"Forget it, it's not important, continue with your inside information."

Seeing the surrounding Cultivators urging him, the man stopped thinking about it and continued with his inside information.

At this time, at the gate of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land, all the Elders were gathered.

"Too much deception!"

"Yes, Gu Liangyuan is also too excessive. Without even stating a reason, he snuck into our Purple Bamboo Holy Land and assassinated our Grand Elder."

"If we don't go to ask him for an explanation today, the world will really think we are easy to bully!"

"Yes, let's go to the Eastern Continent together!"

The crowd clamored, where was their usual Daoist air?

Dressed in white, clearly a man but with a beautiful, soft appearance, the Purple Bamboo Holy Lord raised his hand to stop the crowd's clamor:

"Everyone, calm down first."

The voice was rough; it was a male voice.

After everyone calmed down, the Purple Bamboo Holy Lord spoke:

"He, the Mo Emperor, and Gu Liangyuan have always been at odds. Just because he says it's Gu Liangyuan, is it really Gu Liangyuan?"

"Perhaps he wants to use our Purple Bamboo Holy Land to cause trouble for the Dao Alliance."

An Elder retorted:

"Holy Lord, these words are wrong. The Mo Emperor is, after all, the ruler of a Dynasty. His reputation is already poor recently. If he deceives us again on this matter, his credibility will be lost entirely. Who in the world will obey him in the future?"

"He is not so foolish as to not understand this simple logic."

The Purple Bamboo Holy Lord frowned upon hearing this.

How could he not know this logic?

As the Lord of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land, he understood the disparity in strength between the Purple Bamboo Holy Land and the Dao Alliance better than these Elders.

The reason he said this was just to persuade these Elders to retreat.

Could he say clearly that we are going to the Supreme Sacred Ground to demand accountability, and if Gu Liangyuan says he killed your people from the Purple Bamboo Holy Land, the Purple Bamboo Holy Land can only take it?

The Purple Bamboo Holy Lord knew this truth, but these Elders of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land were used to running rampant in the South Sea and usually didn't even put the Three Great Dynasties in their eyes.

They assumed that a single Gu Liangyuan couldn't make any waves.

The ridiculous thing was that the Elders who were clamoring the loudest generally had cultivation at the Void Refining or Body Integration stages, while those with truly profound cultivation remained silent.

If you don't go to the foot of the mountain, you don't know the height of the green hills.

Cultivators above the Body Integration stage could better understand the weight of Gu Liangyuan's achievements.

But these Elders with mediocre cultivation only looked at the mountain from afar; how could they know the height of the mountain?

Sitting in a well and looking at the sky, that's just how it is.

"Stop shouting. It was I who disguised myself as Di Tian. I am right in front of you. If you want an explanation, feel free to ask!"

A cold voice came, sounding as if it were far away, yet also like a whisper in the ear.

The arguing crowd suddenly fell silent. Looking up, they saw a young Cultivator floating in the sky not far away.

This Cultivator was sitting on a green lotus, with nine small red lotuses surrounding the green lotus.

The green lotus had ethereal Immortal Qi, and the red lotuses had monstrous Karma!

Both righteous and evil, it was truly wonderful!

With sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, he looked like he had stepped out of a painting.

He was clearly right in front of them, yet it felt as if he were not within the Three Realms.

No one on the scene had ever seen such a figure, and for a moment, they were somewhat at a loss.

"I am Gu Liangyuan. What explanation do you want!"

Seeing that no one spoke, Gu Liangyuan shouted!

The Slaughter Domain was released, suppressing eight thousand miles!

Within those eight thousand miles, there was no sun or moon!

The wind stopped, the clouds ceased!

Fish dived to the bottom, birds were startled to fall!

Even space seemed to be affected by this Slaughter Qi, becoming sluggish.

Time also stopped for a moment at this instant.

The Battle Primordial Spirit and the Killing Primordial Spirit were both activated simultaneously.

At this moment, Gu Liangyuan suddenly fell into a strange state.

Although he had killed and fought many times in the past, every time he fought, there were various calculations and weighing of pros and cons.

How to kill the enemy in front, whether it was worth using his trump cards.

In this state, if it weren't for Gu Liangyuan accidentally obtaining the Battle Origin, or perhaps the System's rewards, even with his Supreme Comprehension Ability, it would be impossible to comprehend the Battle Origin.

A true warrior moves forward without hesitation!

Great courage!

Great perseverance!

To fight even when knowing it is impossible to defeat!

Only then, is it a fight!

Gu Liangyuan noticed that under this state, the Dao rhymes began to linger around his body, and the Killing Origin and Battle Origin faintly showed signs of upgrading into the prototype of a Dao Fruit!

With a reach, Mo Tan Kill hung in his hand.

"This halberd is Mo Tan Kill. Under this halberd, dozens of Undergoing Tribulation Cultivators have died, hundreds of Mahayana, four thousand Body Integration, and twenty thousand Void Refining!"

"Cultivators at the Soul Transformation and Nascent Soul stages are countless!"

As Gu Liangyuan spoke, the halberd soldiers and generals appeared behind him.

Each person maintained their state of dying.

Some had eyes wide open, revealing shock.

Some were turning their heads in panic, with fearful expressions.

Some had astonished faces, unable to believe it.

The death appearances of ten thousand people appeared one by one. The group of Elders in front of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land's gate only felt a rush of bloody scent!

Standing in front of them was not Gu Liangyuan, but a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!

Looking at this scene, from Soul Transformation down to Undergoing Tribulation, no one dared to speak!

"She, Immortal Xian Gu, wanted to kill me, so I killed her first. This is my reason for killing her!"

"An explanation?"

A wicked smile appeared on Gu Liangyuan's face:

"This is my explanation!"

With a loud shout, he held Mo Tan Kill high with one hand!

Endless Evil Qi immediately gathered at the tip of Mo Tan Kill.

Gu Liangyuan used the halberd as a javelin and threw it directly towards the Purple Bamboo Holy Land below!

The long halberd broke through the air and expanded as it left his hand!

In the blink of an eye, it was like a heavenly pillar falling, crashing straight into the Purple Bamboo Holy Land!

Hum!

A light curtain flashed over the Purple Bamboo Holy Land; it was clearly the protective array being activated.

The moment Mo Tan Kill touched the protective array, it was like a needle piercing a balloon; the array was directly pierced through.

Mo Tan Kill did not stop, falling straight onto the main peak of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land.

Boom!

As the dust settled, a bottomless giant pit with a radius of tens of miles appeared on the ground.

Where the giant pit was located was previously the main peak of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land!

Now, the main peak had turned into dust!

The commotion here attracted the attention of everyone in the Purple Bamboo Holy Land.

Whether they were reclusive old monsters or ordinary Disciples, they all rushed into the sky, looking at Gu Liangyuan in unison.

Yet not a single person dared to say a word.

"Is this explanation enough!"

Gu Liangyuan spoke again.

The Elders who were previously clamoring to go to the Supreme Sacred Ground to demand an explanation were now all trembling, not daring to utter another word.

Jiang Wei had a saying: if the whip doesn't hit your own body, you don't know the pain.

Gu Liangyuan's various strange aspects were only things everyone had heard about before.

Experiencing it personally and hearing about it are two completely different concepts!

The Purple Bamboo Holy Land's protective array had blocked experts in the Thunder Calamity Realm.

Yet it was broken so easily by Gu Liangyuan.

This also showed that there was almost no one in the Purple Bamboo Holy Land who could stop Gu Liangyuan.

These Elders knew in their hearts that if they said one more word, they would really die!

The Purple Bamboo Holy Lord watched this scene with helplessness in his heart.

Where was that vigor you had before?

Where was your backbone?

Why is everyone silent now?

At least have one person who is truly not afraid of death resist a little; if it spread out, the reputation of our Purple Bamboo Holy Land would sound better.

Just then, Gu Liangyuan's voice came again.

"This pit is the explanation I, Gu Liangyuan, give you."

"If you fill it up, it means you don't accept my explanation!"

"If you don't accept my explanation, I will have to change to another kind of explanation."

After saying this, Gu Liangyuan disappeared slowly into the Void Realm in full view of everyone.

"Too excessive!"

"If you have the ability, don't run; fight me to the death!"

The moment Gu Liangyuan disappeared, a voice rang out among the Elders.

Everyone looked over and saw that the speaker was the Hall Master of the Penalty Hall.

The Penalty Hall Master saw everyone looking at him with disdain:

"Look at how cowardly you are; at worst, it's just death. The face of the Purple Bamboo Holy Land has been thrown away by you all!"

Listening to the words of the Penalty Hall Elder, everyone's faces turned blue and white.

What kind of talk is this? What kind of talk is this!

You didn't look this tough when Gu Liangyuan was here just now.

You start acting tough now that he's gone?

Are you doing this on purpose?

"How did Gu Liangyuan come back?"

In the crowd, someone didn't know who pointed behind the Penalty Hall Master and shouted.

The Penalty Hall Master's expression froze instantly upon hearing this.

His legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he slowly looked behind him.

Seeing that there was no one behind him, he realized he had been tricked.

His face turned bright red in a flash, and he was so ashamed that he dared not stay in the crowd, turning and disappearing.

If these people had seen the Penalty Hall Master like this before, they would have certainly made fun of him.

But at this moment, they couldn't laugh at all.

The Hall Master of the Architecture Hall asked the Purple Bamboo Holy Lord:

"Holy Lord, what should we do about this giant pit?"

Once these words were spoken, everyone fell into silence again.

Yet no one dared to say anything about filling up the pit.

The Purple Bamboo Holy Lord sighed faintly:

"Seal this pit and list it as a Forbidden Ground."

"As for the main peak... let the strongmen move another mountain peak and choose another location."

The Purple Bamboo Holy Lord felt humiliated, but he didn't dare to actually fill the pit.

Looking at the silent Elders, the Purple Bamboo Holy Lord flicked his sleeves:

"If you had listened to me earlier, would we be in this situation today?"

"Anyone who wants to take revenge on Gu Liangyuan, I won't stop you, but before that, withdraw from the Purple Bamboo Holy Land first."

"If you want to die, don't drag the Holy Land down with you."

But behind him, no one responded.

And what everyone didn't know was that this deep pit, which was regarded as a disgrace by the Purple Bamboo Holy Land at this time, would become their glory two hundred years later.

The halberd pit left here by the Dao Ancestor Gu Liangyuan would attract Cultivators from all realms to come and pay their respects.

But there was another huge halberd pit in the Demon Domain, and they argued about which one was fake and which one was real, and the two sides even started a war over it.

That is a matter for later, so I won't describe it here. Having left the Purple Bamboo Holy Land, Gu Liangyuan only felt that although his chest was full of Battle Intent and he harbored a killing heart, his spiritual platform was unprecedentedly clear.

He needed another war to accelerate the upgrading of the Killing Origin and the Battle Origin.

The Hunqing Lotus Platform, combined with the full exertion of Instantaneous Movement, headed straight for the West Desert.

There, was the person he wanted to kill!
