Chapter 190: I Saw a Divine Being!
September 10, 2024
"Divine Martial Sect is powerful, and naturally, it will accompany me to deal with the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect!"
Gu Yang glanced at Gu Yun, then looked at Gu Yi beside him.
"Commander Gu, lead the Dark Guard warriors to the Pei Family immediately. Remember, my order is to exterminate the entire Pei Family, leaving no one alive!"
"Understood, my lord!"
Gu Yi saluted and accepted the command.
Gu Yang wasn’t overly concerned about whether the Dark Guard could eliminate the Pei Family. After all, the Dark Guard was no weak force, with eleven innate grandmasters capable of handling most troubles.
The Pei Family’s strength was indeed profound, but with Pei Jing’s death, their power had significantly diminished. How many strong warriors could they still field?
In Gu Yang’s estimation, the Pei Family could at most muster three to five grandmasters.
Thus, with the Dark Guard’s strength, eliminating the Pei Family would be more than sufficient.
As for the Divine Martial Sect, it would be the main force used against the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect.
Unlike the Pei Family, the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect was truly a powerhouse with deep roots. No one knew how many strong warriors it had in reserve. Even if the Dark Guard could gather intelligence on the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect, Gu Yang doubted it would be complete.
After all, the secrets of an immortal sect were not so easily uncovered.
Next, Gu Yang turned to the other generals.
"Your task is to dispatch troops to support us when the Pei Family and the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect are on the brink of destruction. This battle, I will lead a small force to infiltrate and eliminate both families. If the news leaks, other forces might also take action.
To prevent being surrounded by a large army, you must be fully prepared. Act immediately once you receive word!"
"We understand, my lord!"
The generals all looked solemn.
Seeing this, Gu Yang waved them off to prepare.
Once they had left, Gu Yang turned to Gu Yun and said, "Half a day ago, the Dark Guard reported that the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect has experienced a strange phenomenon. Shadowy figures of evil beings blocked the sun. Do you know what this means, Lord Gu?"
"Shadowy figures of evil beings?"
Gu Yun’s expression changed.
"Shadowy figures of evil beings, born from all things, are a celestial phenomenon that occurs when a Fusion Realm warrior ascends to the Creation Realm. If what you say is true, it means that the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect now has a Creation Realm warrior!"
"Furthermore, if a Creation Realm warrior has truly emerged, this battle will be extremely challenging. Even with our Divine Martial Sect’s strength, it will be difficult to deal with a Creation Realm warrior!"
This wasn’t Gu Yun being overly pessimistic; it was the reality of the situation. If this were on Divine Martial Sect’s home turf, using the sect’s resources, Gu Yun would have a better chance of dealing with a Creation Realm warrior. But invading the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect’s territory to face a Creation Realm warrior would be nearly impossible.
A Creation Realm warrior is equivalent to a martial grandmaster. Such a being is far beyond the capabilities of a mere grandmaster. Even a True Intent Grandmaster would be nothing more than a slightly larger ant in front of such a powerhouse, easily crushed if the warrior so desired.
"To deal with such a warrior, we must seek the help of Master Gu!"
Gu Yun expressed his opinion. Currently, only Gu Qingfeng could handle a Creation Realm warrior.
Gu Yang shook his head, hands behind his back. "Father is busy dealing with the evil beings in Blood Mountain Manor. How can he spare the time to deal with the Heavenly Sun Sword Sect? A Creation Realm warrior is indeed powerful, but with the Evil Slayer Blade in my possession, I am not without a chance."
"The Evil Slayer Blade..."
Gu Yun couldn’t help but glance at the long sword Gu Yang always carried on his back.
Gu Yun was uncertain whether the Evil-Slaying Saber could truly contend with a Transcendent Realm expert. Before witnessing its divine might, he would never have believed that a divine weapon could possess the power to confront such a formidable opponent on its own. However, after seeing Nangong Yu being directly slain by the Evil-Slaying Saber, Gu Yun no longer underestimated this divine weapon. Thus, he couldn’t refute Gu Yang’s words. Such a world-defying divine weapon couldn’t be measured by ordinary standards.

As Gu Yang and the others set out, Gu Qingfeng had already entered Nanyang Prefecture. At his current realm, he was gradually transcending the mundane, reaching a state of near-divinity. For an ordinary person, traveling from Taishan Prefecture to Nanyang Prefecture would take at least ten to fifteen days, even on a swift horse. But for Gu Qingfeng, it took less than two days.
Upon entering Nanyang Prefecture, Gu Qingfeng immediately sensed a chilling and sinister aura permeating the air. This aura was so subtle that even a Grandmaster might not detect it. However, to Gu Qingfeng, it was unmistakable.
"Could this be the malevolent entity from Blood Mountain Manor?" he wondered.
If it was indeed the malevolent entity from Blood Mountain Manor, it must be a formidable opponent. After all, this place was not Blood Mountain Manor but another domain, yet the malevolent aura could still spread this far, indicating its terrifying strength. It could be said that this entity was at least on par with the Evil Buddha.
Moreover, Gu Qingfeng was certain that even if the malevolent entity hadn’t fully broken free, it was very close. Otherwise, its aura wouldn’t be so intense, detectable even across different domains.
Without hesitation, Gu Qingfeng headed toward Blood Mountain Manor. With each step, he left a lingering afterimage, and those who witnessed this scene couldn’t help but rub their eyes, thinking it was an illusion.
"A god... a god!"
"I saw a god!!"
Some civilians knelt on the ground, bowing in the direction Gu Qingfeng had gone, while others stood frozen, trembling uncontrollably. Even some martial artists, who were no strangers to extraordinary skills, were left bewildered, as if they had truly seen a deity.
After all, among all martial artists, even those with exceptional lightness skills couldn’t achieve such a level. Leaving afterimages that seemed almost real was a truly astonishing feat.
Thus, they all believed it was a divine manifestation.
Gu Qingfeng merely smiled at these reactions and paid them no further attention. Whether they called him a deity or a spirit, to him, it didn’t matter. Even if such beings truly existed, they were merely individuals with more powerful abilities. While he might respect their strength, he would never pray to or worship them.
His respect was solely for their formidable power.
Half a day later, Gu Qingfeng entered Blood Mountain Manor. The moment he stepped into the manor, the malevolent aura that had been lingering in the air surged several times, and the temperature dropped dramatically.
