330: Beat Xuanshen out of his inner demons

“Boom!”

“You fiend, who exactly are you?!”

“Stop right there!”

The three Xuan Shen Peak Grand Elders’ eyes blazed with fury.

Their status was extraordinary; they dominated the universe, holding the power of life and death over all beings. Besides Immortal Kings, they were like gods.

The Star Dao Sect was an supreme Dao lineage, existing from ancient times through countless cycles of reincarnation and epoch changes. While countless other Dao lineages had perished, only the Star Dao Sect remained eternal.

Yet now, someone had dared to attack them.

Gu Qing’s sudden assault was like trampling their billions of years of pride underfoot.

Along with their anger, an uncontrollable panic surged within them.

They couldn’t understand what had happened to the sect while they were in seclusion.

Which force dared to invade the Star Dao Sect?

Also, where were the Immortal King Ancestors?

Had they already met with misfortune?

Impossible.

They had two Immortal King Ancestors, six Pseudo-Immortal King Ancestors, and numerous Profound God Great Powers slumbering in the Land of Creation.

They also had an Immortal Emperor Grand Array, capable of trapping and severely injuring an Immortal King.

No force could have infiltrated so silently.

Nor could an Immortal King have fallen so silently.

Unless an Immortal Emperor had acted.

But there were no Immortal Emperors in the world.

Boom!

Gu Qing used his Star Picking Hand to seize the divine pagoda that was smashing towards him, storing it in his Boundless Space.

His Great Dao Divine Power could ignore differences in minor realms; as long as the opponent didn't possess Great Dao Divine Power, they were easily dealt with.

Gu Qing was secretly startled; the Star Dao Sect’s foundation was indeed unfathomable.

Within the seclusion grounds, there were more than ten Profound Gods.

He had silently eliminated the others.

These three Xuan Shen Peak experts had profound foundations and high alertness, so he couldn't launch a successful sneak attack.

This was only the seclusion ground for the Grand Elders of the First Heaven; who knew how many more Great Powers were hidden in the Second and Third Heavens.

It was fortunate that Jiang Yu was with him; otherwise, no one could have shaken the Star Dao Sect.

“Great Dao Divine Power?!”

“Ancestor, Ancestor, please, Ancestor, descend!”

Seeing Gu Qing casually take away the xuan shen artifact they had refined for billions of years with his bare hands,

the three felt their scalps tingle and a chill in their hearts.

At this moment, Gu Qing, in their eyes, was an unspeakable monster.

One must know, the stronger and older one was, the older and stronger one became.

The natal magic treasure he had refined for billions of years possessed terrifying power, capable of killing opponents of the same rank.

Yet, it was effortlessly controlled by Gu Qing, a Xuan Shen of the Second Layer. This completely overturned their understanding.

The three highly suspected that they had been in seclusion for too long and were experiencing inner demons.

“Yes, it’s an inner demon, it must be an inner demon.”

“Demon, die for me!”

“Kill…”

As soon as the thought arose, the three instantly concluded that this was an illusion, an inner demon.

They absolutely refused to believe that someone could silently infiltrate the Star Dao Sect and silently kill an Immortal King.

All of this must be the work of an inner demon.

The three looked stern, their gazes firm, and they circulated their cultivation techniques, attempting to dispel the inner demon.

But it was utterly useless; the inner demon was too powerful and unaffected in the slightest.

“This demon must be a great calamity from ancient times,” the three said in unison.

Hearing the three’s shouts, Gu Qing was quite speechless.

What allowed three Xuan Shen Peak experts to rationalize their situation, creating a perfectly self-consistent logical loop?

Forget it, who cares.

Just hack them to death.

Gu Qing raised his halberd and struck down, two colors of Yin and Yang dyeing the sky and earth, the black and white halberd blade exuding endless sharpness.

It could sever both flesh and soul.

Rumble!

The three exerted their full strength, blocking the blow, but before they could make their next move, a long halberd suddenly appeared as if from space.

His pupils dilated, and with a 'puchi' sound, the Chaotic Undying Halberd pierced through him, pinning him in the void.

He gripped the long halberd with both hands, trying to pull it out, but the Chaotic Undying Halberd seemed to be embedded with the heaven and earth, with time and space, and with his flesh and soul.

He couldn't move it even an inch.

Endless sharpness strangulation his vitality.

“It really is an inner demon, hahaha…”

At the moment of his death, he let out a relieved laugh.

He knew that he was wearing a xuan shen artifact Dao robe; it was impossible for a xuan shen artifact halberd to easily pierce through it.

Aside from an illusion, aside from an inner demon, he couldn't think of any other possibility.

“It’s good that it’s an inner demon, it’s good that the sect is safe; I die without regret.”

His body dissipated, his soul was taken by Gu Qing, and his relieved murmur echoed through the heavens and earth.

“Roar!”

Gu Qing unleashed his Blood Qi Transformation Dragon Divine Power; ten thousand dragons roared, and the terrifying Dao sound seemed to collapse space itself.

The protective grand array erupted with billions of array patterns, shifting the Dao sound away.

The two Profound Gods were not so lucky; standing in mid-air, they were impacted by the Dao sound, and their souls began to scatter.

Before they could react, they were blown apart by a punch, their bodies immediately reforming.

“Troublesome,” Gu Qing gestured with his hand; killing Profound Gods was simpler with the Chaotic Undying Halberd.

The Chaotic Undying Halberd was a Chaotic Spiritual Treasure, possessing unparalleled destructive power. Killing Profound Gods and breaking xuan shen artifacts was like cutting melons and vegetables.

“This, this, this…”

Liu Ruyan and the other two arrived, staring dumbfounded as Gu Qing displayed his might, their minds going blank for a moment.

When she came to her senses, Liu Ruyan’s eyes erupted with astonishing light, looking at Gu Qing excitedly.

She never expected that after a few hundred years, Gu Qing would have become so terrifying.

Even the combined efforts of three Xuan Shen Peak experts were no match for Gu Qing.

“Good, good.”

“It’s a good thing the willow branches blocked and shifted the aftershocks of the divine power, otherwise I would have been accidentally killed by Gu Qing’s divine power,” Liu Ruyi thought with relief.

“So strong, is he really a Xuan Shen of the Second Layer?” Shen Yi murmured in shock.

He was also a prodigy and a monstrous talent, considering his own talent to be unparalleled in the world, but he still had self-awareness.

Shen Yi was certain that even if he broke through to Profound God, he absolutely couldn't kill enemies across realms.

Because at higher realms, each realm was a new heaven, especially the early, middle, and late stages, which were as different as heaven and earth.

For example, in the Heavenly God Realm, he was no match for a Heavenly God of the Fourth Heaven.

A Heavenly God of the Third Heaven, however, he could contend with to some extent.

Furthermore, the divine power Gu Qing displayed was beyond his comprehension.

If he also possessed such divine power, perhaps he could kill enemies across realms.

“Indeed!”

“Too strong.”

Liu Ruyan clenched her small hands, equally shocked, and couldn't help but show a look of adoration.

Her clear eyes were filled with Gu Qing’s powerful and peerless figure, deeply imprinted in her heart.

“Ruyan, you know him? Is he from our lower realm Dao lineage?”

Seeing this, Shen Yi asked excitedly.

If Gu Qing was one of their people, wouldn't that mean they had won this Dao lineage struggle?

From now on, the entire Star Dao Sect would be theirs.

With the resources of the Star Dao Sect for cultivation, the Great Dao was within reach.

The more Shen Yi thought about it, the more excited he became.

“I know him.”

“Of course I know him; even if he turned to ash, Ruyan would recognize him.”

Liu Ruyi looked at him with a look of pity, a mischievous glint in her eyes.

“Oh? Then may I ask who this senior is?” Shen Yi asked, somewhat confused.

“He is Gu Qing.” Liu Ruyi’s pure and beautiful face showed a hint of an evil smile.

She spoke each word slowly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Shen Yi.

Watching how he would collapse and shatter.

“What?!”

Shen Yi felt as if struck by lightning upon hearing this, the color rapidly drained from his face, his body trembled uncontrollably, and he felt as if he was about to shatter.

“Hehe!” Liu Ruyi’s laughter sounded like a devil’s whisper.

“Boom!”

Gu Qing continuously struck with his halberd several times. Once the two’s realms fell to a certain extent, he then used his Space Divine Art.

He grabbed the two in his hands and handed them over to the Calamity Black Dragon for consumption.

After doing all this, Gu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, a joyful smile on his face.

He had finally eliminated all the powerful experts of the Star Dao Sect.

In this battle, he had profited immensely.
