329: Chapter 327: Meet the system host again and crush him to death

As the two traveled together, Zhao Ran's familiarity with the area exceeded Gu Shengge's expectations; it seemed as if the entire region's situation was under his gaze.

This made Gu Shengge wary. After all, this body was merely a Clone and could not use the power of fate to discern his past and future.

As he hesitated, the two had already arrived at a towering mountain. Even after collapsing, the mountain still stood ten thousand zhang tall. Standing there, one could easily overlook an area of ten thousand li.

Gu Shengge quickly understood his intention: this place was perfect for observing where his main body was recovering from its injuries.

In the central area of the death zone, myriad runes, countless Dao runes, descended from the sky, stirring ripples and creating a state of Chaos.

At the end of where these Dao runes fell, Dao sounds permeated, and Yin and Yang Qi intertwined, spreading around his main body. Above and below his body, the massive yin-yang great mill slowly rotated, grinding the Heaven and Earth Dao patterns, integrating them into his main body, providing the purest Heaven and Earth energy support for his main body to recover from its injuries.

At the same time, the yin-yang great mill was also removing the Dao patterns remaining on his main body's residual body and Divine Soul; these were formed by the System's rules and were constantly eroding his main body.

Gu Shengge could see the situation of his main body here, but Zhao Ran could not. All he saw was endless Chaos mist and the faint yin-yang great mill within the mist.

He turned his gaze to Gu Shengge beside him, narrowing his eyes slightly: "Senior, what do you see?"

Gu Shengge then retracted his gaze and spoke calmly: "A dead end, a dead end where anyone who enters will die."

He wasn't joking. The Void Refining Realm pressure on his main body was completely out of his control at this moment. Forcibly entering would likely result in being suppressed and killed by the chaotic pressure and energy.

Gu Shengge's deep gaze fell upon Zhao Ran, instantly giving him a feeling of his hair standing on end, a fear as if he were facing an abyss.

"Senior, what do you mean by that?" Zhao Ran asked, suppressing his trepidation and confusion.

"Nothing. We are not on the same path, let's part ways here!" Gu Shengge said.

He had figured it out: this kid had grand ambitions, and traveling with him would surely lead to trouble!

Gu Shengge stepped into the air and left, leaving Zhao Ran stunned in place. There was both relief and unwillingness in his heart.

Zhao Ran's gaze once again fell upon the central area. The Opportunity here greatly tempted him; even if it meant being utterly crushed, he had to try.

After Gu Shengge parted ways with Zhao Ran, he was flying through the air when he was suddenly stopped by two veiled women.

"Stop. Our Young Miss has an invitation. Please come with us, Young Master."

Gu Shengge originally intended to rush past them but then his eyes suddenly darted, and he smiled, saying, "Then I will trouble the two of you to lead the way."

In a valley three li away, An Yuan was staring blankly at the air in front of her.

"System, do you really perceive that person as very strong? If he's very strong, why have I never heard of him in my previous life?"

An Yuan wasn't spacing out, but rather looking at her System panel. She was a Rebirth and was bound to a System.

"Very strong, he should be at the Peak of the Soul Transformation Realm!" the System said.

At this moment, Gu Shengge was also led by the two maidservants to An Yuan.

An Yuan immediately had the System investigate Gu Shengge. Gu Shengge's expression subtly changed. He couldn't see a person's past and future now, but detecting the System's existence was still very simple for him.

After all, he had already eliminated so many Systems; his expertise could be said to be quite proficient.

An Yuan was originally full of confidence, planning to use the System to ascertain Gu Shengge's identity before trying to win him over and make him her aid.

However, after she investigated, a trace of fear appeared on her face. On her System panel, all the information involved was in a "???" state. Only the Realm column had the description "Nascent Soul Realm Peak Great Perfection."

"Who... who are you?" Her voice trembled unconsciously as she asked.

Because the System told her another terrifying piece of news: this person seemed to have a terrifying past, far from as simple as he looked. This fellow made the System feel fear.

Gu Shengge stared at her coldly: "I do not wish to answer. You called me over, what is the matter?"

"Nothing, I just saw that Senior is exceptionally heroic and wanted to make your acquaintance."

Her reason clearly did not satisfy Gu Shengge. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and a violent explosion erupted in An Yuan's mind, causing her brain to go blank, and her body involuntarily dropped to her knees with a thud.

The two maidservants behind Gu Shengge hadn't even figured out what was happening and immediately stepped forward to help An Yuan up.

"Young Miss, what's wrong?"

One of them turned her gaze and glared fiercely at Gu Shengge: "What did you do to Young Miss?"

A murderous glint flashed in Gu Shengge's eyes. The Golden Core Realm maidservant's body instantly collapsed, blood splattering, covering An Yuan and the other maidservant.

An Yuan awoke as if from a dream, exclaiming in shock and anger: "How dare you! How dare you kill my people!"

As she spoke, she conjured a yellow talisman.

"Explode!"

The yellow talisman landed in front of Gu Shengge, its internal runes exploding, releasing an attack at the Peak of the Soul Transformation Realm.

Gu Shengge didn't even bother to dodge. His figure flashed, and he rushed to An Yuan.

"System holder?"

An Yuan's eyes instantly widened. The System was her biggest secret after her Rebirth, and she had even used the System to make the An Family secretly the most powerful Family in the entire Great Wei, almost controlling the entire commercial sector of the Great Wei Empire.

"Host, this person seems to have the aura of other Systems on him!" An Yuan's System exclaimed.

An Yuan was being choked by Gu Shengge and could only furiously scold him with Divine Thought in her Sea of Consciousness: "Is he also a System owner? Don't worry about that, quickly save me!"

"No, Host, he is not a System owner, but rather, Systems have been destroyed by his hand!"

An Yuan's eyes widened, staring at Gu Shengge in disbelief, exclaiming in her mind: "What does that mean? What does it mean that Systems have been destroyed by his hand? Do you Systems also die?"

The System was full of remorse: "Of course they do! This fellow has indeed killed Systems, and not long ago, news even came that a terrifying existence had even killed a Supreme Ruler-level existence!"

An Yuan urgently cried out: "I don't want to know that! Quickly save me! I'm going to be strangled to death by him!"

The System, which had been stunned by its discovery, immediately responded: "Immediately, but I can only try; there's a very high probability I won't be able to escape!"

After the System spoke, An Yuan felt her Physical Body suddenly begin to swell violently.

"System, what are you doing?"

"Host, the Physical Body has already been controlled by him and definitely cannot be kept; it can only be abandoned!"

Amidst a violent explosion, An Yuan's Physical Body disintegrated, and the System, carrying her Divine Soul, fled rapidly.

Gu Shengge's current state was, after all, only a Clone, and he hadn't intended to keep the System. However, his identity would likely arouse the System's suspicion, and perhaps in a while, the Eight Supreme Rulers would come after him. (End of Chapter)
