"It is indeed an honor for this young man to be personally favored by the Sect Leader. If he's smart, the moment he sees the Sect Leader, he will surely prostrate himself and submit at your feet," the Purgatory Saint Envoy Fan Yi said loudly.

Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian asked, "But, the Sect Leader has not yet left seclusion. Can your avatar travel such a great distance?"

Yangzhou is in the south, a considerable distance from Yan State in the western part of the Nine States. Even if Dugu Yun is formidable, an avatar could not possibly be so far from his main body, spanning tens of thousands of miles, or even further.

Dugu Yun did not speak, but closed his eyes and keenly sensed for a while before he finally opened his mouth and said, "Has the second celestial upheaval only brought forth two prison-grade demonic entities to the Nine States?"

Kneeling on the ground, Yang Nian and Fan Yi hurriedly said, "We are incompetent, and have failed to capture those two prison-grade demonic entities."

Dugu Yun said nothing. He stood up from the throne, and only then did Yang Nian and Fan Yi see that Dugu Yun's body was illusory, formed of strands of black qi, undoubtedly an avatar.

"When the Sect Leader's work is complete, it will be the day our Six Union God Sect unifies the world!" Yang Nian and Fan Yi said in unison.

"Go, bring a nether-grade demonic entity here. I want to possess it," Dugu Yun said indifferently, as if there was nothing in the world that could interest him.

"Yes."

Yang Nian and Fan Yi responded reverently, then hastily left the hall, returning to the cavern with the vast blood pool, where they chose the strongest and most perfect nether-grade demonic entity to bring here.

The nether-grade demonic entity, which should have been incredibly ferocious, for some reason, suddenly became evasive in the presence of Yang Nian and Fan Yi, and even appeared somewhat cringing with fear, clearly frightened by something.

Especially when the nether-grade entity was brought to the hall and saw Dugu Yun, intelligence lacking as it was, it suddenly knelt with a thud on the ground, continuously kowtowing to Dugu Yun as though a commoner were paying homage to an emperor.

Yang Nian and Fan Yi were not surprised to see this scene.

After all, even they, of their rank, could barely lift their heads in Dugu Yun's presence, let alone a mere nether-grade demonic entity.

Hum!

The next moment, Dugu Yun at the highest seat suddenly transformed into a wisp of illusory black qi, surging into the body of the nether-grade demonic entity in an instant.

The aura of the nether-grade demonic entity also swelled up suddenly, becoming incredibly powerful.

Seeing this, Yang Nian and Fan Yi's eyes filled with even deeper reverence.

...

On the other side, after Gu Chen had slain two prison-grade demonic entities, enhanced his own strength, and watched the spatial rift close completely without any more demonic entities appearing, he also chose to leave.

Although the barbarian chieftain Yelanbar had secretly fled the scene, with the wounds Gu Chen had inflicted on him, Yelanbar would be rendered useless for some time; such severe injuries would not be easily healed, even for a top martial artist at the Coagulation Field level.

Unless something unexpected happened, it would be difficult for Yelanbar to make another appearance in this conflict.

After slaying the two prison-grade entities, Gu Chen's heart also grew heavy; compared to barbarians, the newly-emerged prison-grade demonic entities were clearly much more terrifying.

Even Gu Chen, for the time being, could not come up with any countermeasures. Demonic entities of such caliber, considering all of the Nine States and the whole world, were not entities many could contend with.

And when considering Da Xia, only Gu Chen and the Tower Supervisor possessed such power.

But it's important to note that these were just the initially arrived prison-grade demonic entities; as time passed, Gu Chen knew the number of demonic entities descending upon the Nine States would only increase.

With this thought, even the joy of perfecting his Mountain and Sea Fist was somewhat diminished, and Gu Chen's heart gradually became weighted with concern.

"This is the true great calamity," Gu Chen thought with furrowed brows, pondering how to break the stalemate.

Upon returning to Yulong City, he encountered the excited faces of Yan State's Jing Tian Department Tower Supervisors and Wang Jiuzhi, among others.

Clearly, they all knew of Gu Chen's achievement in reaching the Coagulation Field level, ascending to the pinnacle of martial prowess.

"This is wonderful, Master Gu!" they cheered for Gu Chen. The significance of having a Coagulation Field level expert in his twenties was understood by everyone.

They even believed that with Gu Chen, barbarians had become easy to defeat, and that as long as Da Xia had Gu Chen, no problem was insurmountable.

However, Gu Chen was not as optimistic as they were, but he did not voice his concerns.

After all, speaking them would only add to the worries and anxieties of Yan Qing and the others; it was better for him to bear the burden alone.

Unbeknownst to him, Gu Chen had grown into a towering tree in Da Xia, protecting the entire nation.

Even the Jing Tian Department Tower Supervisor, who used to seem out of reach, was now cheering for him, relying on his support.

Of course, although Gu Chen hadn't slain the barbarian chieftain Yelanbar, making Yan Qing, Wang Jiuzhi, and others feel a bit regretful, they still witnessed Gu Chen's might.

Afterward, Gu Chen left, returning to the Jing Tian Department. The restoration work of the state city was handled by the Yan State Governor, who also soothed the emotions of Yulong City's citizens.

Soon, two days had passed.

On this day, in the Jing Tian Department, Gu Chen, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, his expression turning extremely grave.

For in his spiritual perception, he sensed an incredibly terrifying presence outside of Yulong City.

In a flash, Gu Chen's figure vanished, appearing outside Yulong City, yet he saw no one who could cause him such immense danger.

"Demon or warrior?" Gu Chen murmured, his brows knitted tightly.

"Hm?" Suddenly, Gu Chen's expression tensed as he felt the presence again.

Whoosh!

At this moment, going all out and treading the LingXu Nine Steps, Gu Chen finally encountered a figure about a hundred miles outside Yulong City.

"Who are you?" Gu Chen asked the man in green robes in front of him, sensing a powerful crisis that gave him a throbbing pain in the center of his forehead.

Simultaneously, Gu Chen's gaze sharpened as he noticed strands of black qi twining around the green-robed man.

"Are you from a demonic sect?" Gu Chen asked coldly, on full alert.

"Are you Gu Chen?"

At that moment, the green-robed man turned around. He was a handsome middle-aged man with an elegant demeanor, thick black hair, graying at the temples, and profound, worldly eyes – an allure that could draw people's gaze and cause them to lose themselves.

It was the Six Union God Sect's Sect Leader, Dugu Yun.

And there he was, standing before Gu Chen!
