Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 1582 - 404: Slaying the Leader of the Fire Sect
Chapter 1582: Chapter 404: Slaying the Leader of the Fire Sect
The leader of the Fire Sect snorted coldly, now that his identity has been exposed, he had nothing left to hide. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he directly unleashed the power of the demonic forces, and his injuries rapidly healed.
"Eight Great Elders of the Holy Gate!"
The chieftains of the Purple-blood Sky Dragon Clan and the Kirin Clan, along with leaders of other clans, arrived and stood beside Gu Chen, their faces taut as they looked towards them.
Especially when they saw the leader of Taoxu Road, Taishi, standing there, they couldn’t help but be visibly shaken. freewebnøvel.coɱ
Some in the questioning realm even exclaimed in shock: "Taishi, how could you?!"
The leader of Taoxu Road, Taishi, remained silent, just frowning and watching Gu Chen and the others with a chilling gaze.
"Heaven Saint Mountain, Ten Thousand Stars Palace, Great Red Sky Palace, Bow of Illusion Extermination, Heaven’s Xuanwu..." Those who arrived at the scene from the questioning realm gazed at the Eight Great Elders of the Holy Gate with grave expressions.
Just like Gu Chen, their first reaction was that the Holy Gate had infiltrated the upper realm like a sieve.
"Fellow Daoists, why have you betrayed us?" The leader of the Purple-blood Sky Dragon Clan, Ao Tian, had a trace of sorrow hidden in his eyes as he looked towards the leader of Taoxu Road and the others.
To him, they had shared many years of friendship, and it was unthinkable that all of them were people of the Holy Gate.
"There’s no special reason, just a wish to ascend a step further," said the master of Heaven Saint Mountain, who had a deeper friendship with the leader of the Purple-blood Sky Dragon Clan.
"For breakthroughs, for the ultimate power over all heavens, one can devour countless living beings, regard human lives as grass, betray the upper realm, and become that ungodly creature?!" Bai Xiao, the leader of the White Tiger Clan, who was rather hot-tempered, roared.
He too was incredulous, never expecting that his comrades, who had been by his side and fought against the demonic forces for years, had become traitors.
"This is the end for the upper realm in this lifetime; this is also the last epoch of the Myriad Worlds. The Ancestral Being of the Underworld, Awakening, will devour everything," the leader of Taoxu Road declared.
"Even so, can you discard everything, embrace darkness, and turn against your own kind? If everyone shares your mentality, then how could beings at the peak of all heavens exist, how could the Myriad Worlds still be here?" Gu Chen rebuked with a cold tone.
He was very disappointed in the leader of Taoxu Road.
Upon hearing these words, the leader of Taoxu Road opened his mouth, but in the end, had nothing to say, falling into silence.
"Different paths do not converge." In the end, that was all he could say.
Was he trying to convince himself, or was it meant as an explanation?
At this point, everyone in the questioning realm knew that there was nothing more to say, only a battle was left!
"Now it’s your turn to taste what it’s like to be besieged," Gu Chen proclaimed, his expression cold, devoid of any emotion.
Among those of the upper realm in the questioning realm, they held a definitive numerical advantage.
However, the Eight Great Elders of the Holy Gate, although solemn, appeared undaunted nonetheless.
After all, not every one of the several dozen people opposite them possessed cultivation as deep as theirs.
In terms of power, the Eight Great Elders of the Holy Gate undoubtedly stood at the pinnacle of the upper realm, with few able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them!
"Zhan Tian, Douyuan, Ao Tian, what are you three still thinking about? Come over here!" At this moment, the leader of Taoxu Road suddenly spoke up, startling the questioning realms of the upper realm.
"You three have indeed betrayed the upper realm, damnable traitors!" a questioning realm roared in anger.
Zhan Tian, Douyuan, and Ao Tian frowned, aware that this was the leader of Taoxu Road’s tactic to sow discord.
After all, all three of them were already suspected because they were on good terms with the forefather of the Golden Roc Clan, Jin Zhu, and the leader of the Fire Sect, Ganli, both of whom had betrayed the upper realm.
And sure enough, Sun Elder Ganli spoke coldly: "Fellow Daoists, what are you still considering? Have you forgotten when you teamed up with us to kill Gu Chen, what are you hesitating for, hurry over."
With this statement, the trust of the questioning realms of the upper realm in them plummeted to an all-time low.
The faces of Zhan Tian and his counterparts were also extraordinarily grim.
Douyuan, master of the Ten Thousand Stars Palace, spoke up with a heavy voice: "We have been greedy, desiring to take the origin of the Myriad Worlds for ourselves, but from the beginning to the end, we never considered betraying the upper realm and turning to the Holy Gate!"
"Indeed, we only sought the origin of the Myriad Worlds and have cooperated with the Holy Gate in this regard, I admit it, but there was never any outrageous action!" Master Ao Tian of the Nine Heavens Palace also stated.
The chieftain of the Three-Eyed God Clan, Zhan Tian, said: "If you do not believe us, we can swear by the Dao. If we are tainted by the Holy Gate, our bodies and Dao shall perish, and we shall cease to exist through all calamities!"
The questioning realms of the upper realm still frowned, somewhat distrusting them, but it was already better than before.
The leaders of the questioning realm, led by the chieftain of the Purple-blood Sky Dragon Clan, glanced at Gu Chen, unsure about the true stance and identity of Zhan Tian and his fellows.
At this moment, Gu Chen spoke. His eyes were cold, his words with a somber tone: "This is your last chance. If you do not seize it, I won’t hesitate to annihilate your spirit and form!"
The time had come for unity in the face of an external enemy; Gu Chen knew this was the leader of Taoxu Road’s tactic of driving a wedge between them, so he would not let them succeed.
With these words, the questioning realms looked at Zhan Tian and the others a bit more relaxed, not as guarded as before.
Seeing this, the chieftain of the Three-Eyed God Clan Zhan Tian, master Douyuan of the Ten Thousand Stars Palace, and lastly Master Ao Tian of the Nine Heavens Palace, all took a deep breath, some with grateful looks towards Gu Chen.
Boom!
Just then, suddenly, two individuals from the questioning realms of the upper realm struck, launching an attack on their companions.
