Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 941 - 44 Unmasking Identity
Chapter 941: Chapter 44 Unmasking Identity
Outside, in front of the glowing portal.
With a humming sound, several figures appeared, two of whom were the Sacred Sons of Mount Tianzhu, He Lianying, and of Burning Heaven Valley, Shen Tianchi.
The remaining two were the protectors of their respective Cave Heaven Realms.
"Hmm?"
Seeing these four emerge, many onlookers at the scene were momentarily stunned.
"What... Even the Sacred Sons and their protectors have been eliminated?"
Onlookers in the distance were abuzz with discussion.
"What happened?"
At this moment, two Unification Realm experts from the two great sanctuaries stepped forward to inquire, their brows furrowed deeply.
This was the first time Sacred Sons, or one might say using their life-saving talismans, were out, which was a disgrace to both sanctuaries, hence their gloomy expressions.
"Master Uncle, we..."
He Lianying and Shen Tianchi had grim expressions on their faces. As the losers, being the center of so much attention made them feel terrible inside. They themselves felt disgraced, and in their hearts, they detested the young strong fighter who had sent them out.
"We were slain and let down Master Uncle..." Both He Lianying and Shen Tianchi, as Sacred Sons, were now to the point of extreme shame, wishing they could just find a hole to crawl into.
"Who was it, with whom did you have a conflict?" the two Unification Realm experts from Mount Tianzhu and Burning Heaven Valley asked with stern faces.
"It was a young-looking Cave Heaven Realm strong fighter..." Following that, the two recounted the sequence of events.
"Could it be him?!"
After hearing the description from He Lianying and Shen Tianchi, the Unification Realm experts were shocked, and even the Great Powers hanging in the void turned their gaze, their eyes flashing with divine light.
"Master Uncle, do you know him?" Seeing this reaction, He Lianying and Shen Tianchi were instantly bewildered.
However, their Master Uncles did not respond to them, but instead looked gravely serious as they exchanged glances with several other strong fighters, saying, "It’s this young strong fighter again, but it’s unknown what his real age is. If it’s truly as young as he appears, that would confirm it."
Gu Jiuge!
At that moment, everyone’s mind conjured the same name—the first among the younger generation of the Gray Domain to be listed on the Golden List!
If someone of such a young age had reached the Cave Heaven Realm, it could only be Gu Jiuge without a doubt!
Indeed, many suspected that this person was Gu Jiuge.
"Master Uncle, do you know who this person is?" He Lianying and Shen Tianchi asked unwillingly.
Their Master Uncles glanced at them and said, "Stop thinking about revenge; you two are probably no match for him. If we are not mistaken, this young strong fighter is likely the incredibly mysterious—Gu Jiuge!"
"What, it’s him?!"
He Lianying and Shen Tianchi exclaimed in shock, never imagining that the one who had struck them was the most mysterious young fighter of their generation.
Against such a character, even if they considered themselves exceptional, they knew they were far from being a match for him.
"But why is he targeting us?" He Lianying and Shen Tianchi were bewildered, clearly sensing Gu Chen’s hostility towards them, which seemed more than just a first encounter.
They then suddenly remembered the four protectors involved and hurriedly brought up this point, secretly hoping that Gu Jiuge would meet his end inside, to redeem their disgrace.
But the next moment, with a flash of light, four Cave Heaven Realm cultivators appeared beside them.
"You... you’ve come out too?" Seeing this, He Lianying and Shen Tianchi’s expressions stiffened.
The four Cave Heaven Realm cultivators stood there in silence, their faces showing embarrassment.
The two Unification Realm experts from Mount Tianzhu and Burning Heaven Valley had grave and unhappy looks on their faces. Had it not been for the life-saving talismans, the losses they faced this time would have been enormous!
"Master Uncle, we wish to go back in!" At that point, He Lianying and Shen Tianchi exchanged a glance and mustered the courage to speak up.
"You two still wish to go in and seek death?!" The two Master Uncles glared at them furiously.
"We... we want to look for opportunities elsewhere and certainly will stay far away from that person suspected to be Gu Jiuge," the two said.
"Hmph!"
The two Unification Realm strong fighters gave a cold snort but ultimately agreed.
After all, the Sacred Sons from the other forces had not yet emerged. If they missed this opportunity, He Lianying and Shen Tianchi could not fathom when they would get another chance to break through to the Cave Heaven Realm.
...
Within the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, at the moment, Xue Ningshan from Lingdao Mountain, a frosty man from the Soaring Snake Clan, and the captain of the guard from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty named Gu Yan, were all looking at Gu Chen with some astonishment.
Just now, the four Cave Heaven Realm cultivators affiliated with Mount Tianzhu and Burning Heaven Valley had made their move, but had been effortlessly slain by him, a scene that truly rattled them.
"May I know your honorific name, sir?" Xue Ningshan’s eyes glimmered, and her beautiful face showed a delicate smile as she spoke softly to Gu Chen.
Any other person would have given face to such an appealing woman, especially when she was the one initiating the conversation. Of course, they would be willing to chat for a bit since it was no loss to them.
But Gu Chen was an exception to this, maintaining a calm demeanor without uttering a word, instead turning his gaze toward something behind them.
There was a forest there, and deep within it, a cave. Inside the cave was a stone table with several small bottles on top, containing a light golden liquid.
