73: The Six Supremes launched an attack, revealing Yun Guanwu's trump card!
The two chatted lightly along the way, and soon met with the Qisha Saint Son.
Upon seeing the two arrive as promised, the Qisha Saint Son smiled, "Haha, I didn't expect Brother Gu and the Saintess to come together. What a perfect match! Shall we depart now?"
Hearing this, Gu Qingchen nodded with a half-smile, "Let's go."
...The Void Tempering Shuttle indeed possessed extreme speed.
Even the vast and boundless Xuantian Continent only took half a day to travel from the central part of the continent to its northernmost end.
Here, cold winds howled, and the sky pressed extremely low.
From time to time, streaks of Sword Qi would burst forth from the hazy sea of clouds, each resonating sword cry shattering thousands of miles of flowing clouds.
Seeing this, Gu Qingchen couldn't help but marvel at the formidable power of a Celestial Venerable.
A mere Sword Intent could persist for hundreds of millions of years without perishing.
It had almost permanently altered the landscape of the northernmost region of the Xuantian Continent.
Moreover, it had given rise to countless Sword Dao Geniuses.
Almost half of the Sword Cultivators in Xuantian Holy Land came from this region.
If a Celestial Venerable possessed such power, it was no wonder that Emperor-level battles could shatter countless great worlds.
From this perspective, the ruins left by the Great Emperor battles alone on the Emperor Ruins Battlefield were a valuable treasure.
This made Gu Qingchen look forward to the Emperor Ruins Secret Realm even more, which was a year away.
"We've arrived."
The Void Tempering Shuttle carried the three to the depths of the Heavenly Sword Abyss.
Streaks of piercing Sword Intent darted wildly in the Void Realm, as if these Sword Intents had become sentient and were about to transform into true living beings.
"This place is indeed a geomantically auspicious spot."
Gu Qingchen surveyed the surroundings before nodding, "So, Qisha Saint Son, what surprise have you prepared for me?"
"Ah?"
The Qisha Saint Son was startled, "What is Brother Gu talking about?
What surprise could I possibly prepare?"
"Still playing dumb?"
Gu Qingchen raised an eyebrow, "We've already arrived, Qisha Saint Son, there's no need to be so cautious anymore."
Seeing Gu Qingchen and Yun Guanwu's calm demeanor, the Qisha Saint Son frowned, "It's just as the Ye Family said, you saw through this trap long ago."
"Oh?"
Hearing the Qisha Saint Son's words, Gu Qingchen suddenly understood, "So the mastermind behind this is actually the Ye Family?"
He then chuckled, "It makes sense. After all, I've always been kind to people, and I don't have too many enemies."
Kind to people?
Hearing this, even Yun Guanwu beside him looked at him in surprise.
She thought about the rumors surrounding Gu Qingchen.
This Saint who looked handsome and refined had not long ago slaughtered all the Prodigies of the younger generation of the Ye Family.
No matter how you looked at it, that didn't seem to align with being kind to people.
"It seems you're very confident in your trump card."
The Qisha Saint Son sneered, "However, if you knew the lineup ambushing you this time, you probably wouldn't be laughing..."
He had only spoken half his sentence when a blood-red dot suddenly appeared on his forehead.
The next moment, his aura completely extinguished.
"Oh dear, I accidentally killed the wrong person!"
At this moment, strange laughter echoed through the Void Realm, and an old man in black robes slowly emerged from the Void Realm.
He opened his mouth, and streaks of black light transformed into tentacle-like entities, heavily wrapping around the Qisha Saint Son.
The next moment, he swallowed him whole.
"The taste isn't bad."
The black-robed old man smacked his lips, cackling, "I killed one extra person. It seems I'll have to ask the Ye Family for more blood food this time."
"A Demonic Path cultivator?"
Gu Qingchen raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He hadn't expected the Ye Family to have some collusion with the Demonic Path.
"Kid."
The black-robed old man stared intently at Gu Qingchen, a chilling glint in his eyes, "I heard you actually defeated that kid Di Xuancang and became the First Heavens Pride of the Righteous Path?
Hehehe, I haven't tasted what the First Heavens Pride of the Righteous Path tastes like yet."
"Spirit Devourer Old Monster, you can't just swallow this kid like that."
At this moment, another figure appeared.
He wore blood-red robes, with a strange mark between his eyebrows, and a powerful, all-slaughtering killing intent erupted, temporarily suppressing even the numerous sentient Sword Intents of the Heavenly Sword Abyss.
"That's right, this kid became the First Heavens Pride of the Righteous Path at only twenty years old. He must have some Supreme Opportunity on him. It would be such a waste for you, old fellow, to just swallow him whole."
"He should be captured alive, then his soul refined and spirit extracted, squeezing out every bit of his value bit by bit."
"…"
Soon, one powerful expert after another appeared.
Gu Qingchen's Reincarnation Heavenly Eye slowly rotated in his pupils, and after seeing through the strength of the Demonic Path experts, he was quite surprised.
"I didn't expect that to deal with a mere Dao-Peeking Realm existence like me, the Demonic Path would dispatch six Supremes?
This is truly... a Supreme honor."
One must know,
powerful cultivators like Supremes could be considered foundational existences in any force.
As an entity capable of contending with the Heavenly Dao Alliance, which was led by the Ten Supreme Holy Lands, the Seven Paths of the Demonic Sect naturally had a considerable number of Supremes, but dispatching six Supremes at once was still quite astonishing.
"It's just that the Heaven Punishing Dao didn't send anyone this time, otherwise you, kid, would be facing seven Supremes."
A middle-aged man in a yellow robe shook his head and said, "At that point, your death would truly be glorious."
The Heaven Punishing Dao didn't send anyone?
Gu Qingchen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Could it be that the Heaven Punishing Dao still remembered the previous Saintess, Zuo Yuqiao?
But that seemed a bit far-fetched.
After all, he had almost no connection with Zuo Yuqiao. If it were Elder Luo Jinghong, it would make more sense.
She was, after all, Zuo Yuqiao's daughter.
"Alright, stop with the nonsense."
At this moment, the blood-robed middle-aged man spoke, "The Ye Family said this kid has a guardian at the Late Stage of the Supreme Realm. Have you found any trace of him?"
"No."
"Can't sense any aura at all."
"…"
The Six Demon Path Supremes used their various methods, but all found nothing.
"Hehehe, it seems you, kid, have bad Luck. The Supreme guarding you just happens to be absent. Now, it seems there won't be any surprises."
The Spirit Devourer Old Monster licked his lips, his eyes full of greed.
He cultivated the Supreme Legacy of the Heaven Devouring Dao, one of the Seven Paths of the Demonic Sect—the "Spirit Devouring Creation Peerless Demonic Scripture," which allowed him to rapidly grow stronger by devouring spirits.
The more talented and powerful the existence, the greater the Creation obtained after devouring them.
Gu Qingchen became the First Heavens Pride of the Righteous Path at only twenty years old. If he could be devoured, the benefits would undoubtedly be immense!
Not only would his Origin greatly increase, but his Luck might also skyrocket!
He couldn't resist making the first move, devouring countless black demonic lights that transformed into tentacles, sweeping over them like a tidal wave!
"Be careful!"
Yun Guanwu warned, then suddenly formed the Grand Void Seal, and a Supreme Qi mechanism instantly awakened!
"celestial venerable weapon!"
Feeling this Qi mechanism, the six Supremes were shocked!
