Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 942 - 44 Exposed Identity_2

"Golden Body Fluid?" Gu Chen’s sword-like eyebrows raised as he recognized its origin.

As the name implies, Golden Body Fluid has a miraculous effect on cultivators refining their physical bodies, enhancing physical strength, and there is even a certain possibility of refining a flawless golden body.

This treasure, that is greatly beneficial to cultivators in the Cave Heaven Realm, is something that He Lianying and Shen Tianchi, who were merely at the Celestial Man Realm, extremely desired. They hoped to use the Golden Body Fluid and other treasures to help them break through the martial realm limit and advance to the Cave Heaven Realm.

Of course, Gu Chen also saw that there were some dangers scattered throughout the cave, which was far from completely safe.

Ling Fei and her group had just been there, fighting over the ownership of the Golden Body Fluid, when Gu Chen suddenly made his move.

In the distance, there were many figures standing there. All had been captured by Mount Tianzhu and Burning Heaven Valley to help them search for spiritual herbs. Their backgrounds were far inferior to that of the holy lands, so these people could only keep their grievances to themselves.

Among them were Xuan Yi Sect’s Ling Fei and Liao Yun, who had just entered the area not long ago and were captured by Mount Tianzhu and Burning Heaven Valley.

"Thank goodness, we finally escaped from that hell!" At this moment, upon seeing that the people from Mount Tianzhu and Burning Heaven Valley had been thoroughly defeated, Liao Yun was overjoyed, knowing he would no longer have to hand over the spiritual herbs he collected.

Ling Fei, whose figure was graceful, stood aside, staring at Gu Chen as if in a trance, feeling an uncannily familiar sense.

"Junior sister, junior sister, what’s wrong? We’ve got out of that hell, aren’t you happy about it?" Liao Yun asked, puzzled.

At that moment, he was immensely grateful to the powerful individual in the distance, and there was a strong longing in his eyes—he hoped that one day he could reach that level, where he could stand alone and fear no holy land.

Ling Fei ignored Liao Yun and was still frowning in deep thought.

"I’ve got it!"

Suddenly, Ling Fei’s pretty face changed, and she looked at Gu Chen with a flash of realization. She remembered—the person who had taken the Red Yuan Fruit in front of everyone in Meteor State was right in front of her!

"Why is he here?" Ling Fei murmured, curiosity arising in her bright eyes.

"Junior sister, junior sister, what’s wrong? Do you know that powerful person?" Liao Yun kept asking, obviously having no recollection of Gu Chen.

Ling Fei gave him a glance and, without saying anything, simply shook her head slightly.

Seeing this, Liao Yun became even more confused. He felt that Ling Fei, his childhood friend of many years, seemed to become more and more a stranger to him.

Meanwhile, Gu Chen naturally also spotted Ling Fei and Liao Yun in the distance, but he only glanced at them briefly before averting his gaze.

When Gu Chen had first arrived in the Upper Realms, Ling Fei had been of great help to him. If there was a chance, and if she were in trouble, he wouldn’t mind lending a hand.

At that moment, Xue Ningshan of Spirit Path Mountain, seeing Gu Chen silent, didn’t get angry. Instead, she smiled slightly, her eyes dancing with charm, and said, "Young master, I think we are about the same age. How about we join forces to explore that forest and cave?"

The cold man from the Soaring Snake Clan didn’t speak but watched Gu Chen very vigilantly.

The Golden Body Fluid was extraordinarily precious; he didn’t want to give it up and was thinking of seizing it to take back for the young master of his clan to use. He hoped it would help the young master to slaughter his way through this Cave Heaven Blessed Land and ascend to the throne as the number one among the young generation in the Gray Domain.

The battle general from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty saw Xue Ningshan’s enthusiasm towards Gu Chen and his expression darkened slightly.

After all, if things went as expected, this woman was set to marry his master, the Ninth Prince Gu Yan. Now, to see her being so warm to another man naturally made him feel dissatisfied.

Moreover, he shared the same idea as the man from the Soaring Snake Clan, desiring to take the Golden Body Fluid back to Gu Yan to help enhance his strength.

It could be said that people from such major powers were formidable; even when they arrived in places like this, they had subordinates to help them search for spiritual medicines and even heaven and earth treasures to enhance their strength, which was much stronger than Gu Chen by himself.

Even Ling Fei from Mount Lingdao, as a successor of a hidden sect, Gu Chen could keenly feel that there was a Cave Heaven Realm expert hidden in the void around her, guarding the girl.

"The Golden Body Fluid is mine," Gu Chen finally spoke in the midst of the wary glances from the crowd, declaring the ownership of the heaven and earth treasure.

Moreover, his intention was crystal clear, which was also to drive Xue Ningshan and her companions away.

As soon as these words were spoken, the two from the Soaring Snake Clan and the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty instantly focused their gaze, faintly harboring the idea of joining forces to make a move against Gu Chen.

On their own, neither had the courage to take down Gu Chen.

After all, they had just witnessed Gu Chen’s strength with their own eyes, which was indeed remarkably astonishing.

"Don’t you think that you are being a bit too tyrannical?" the warrior from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty spoke up, frowning.

You must understand, the three of them who remained here each had an extraordinary background, backed by powerful forces. Although the man in front of them was strong, alone against the three of them, he might not be assured of victory.

Not to mention, they had even more reinforcements behind them.

At that moment, Gu Chen turned his head slightly to look at the warrior from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and said indifferently, "I really dislike the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty. I’ll give you three breaths’ time. If you don’t leave, you die."

The plain words revealed Gu Chen’s strong confidence and power.

Upon hearing this, the face of the warrior from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty immediately darkened, as he bellowed, "You are far too arrogant. To put it bluntly, even if you are very powerful, what can you amount to in the face of the imperial dynasty? You are nothing but an ant, and yet you dare to utter such disrespectful words?"

"Then leave your life behind," Gu Chen said emotionlessly, flicking his finger. The earth and sky trembled, and a finger force left a very noticeable mark in the void as it struck towards the warrior from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty.

In an instant, that person’s pupils contracted, feeling an immense pressure. The opponent had merely flicked his finger, but he felt as if a titanic mountaintop was crashing down on him. He focused all his attention on responding.

Boom!

The warrior from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty put forth all his effort. His body flew out afar before he could block Gu Chen’s finger force, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

"Not bad."

Seeing that his casual strike was blocked and the man didn’t immediately die, Gu Chen nodded slightly in approval.

But to the warrior from the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty, this scene was an immense humiliation.

The man himself was several decades older than this young adversary, yet he was described as if he were a junior being educated by an elder, which was unbearable for his pride.

"Miss Xue, please make your move and lend me a hand!" the warrior called out.

Since a marriage alliance was imminent, the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty and Mount Lingdao naturally stood together, so he felt that asking Xue Ningshan to make a move was reasonable and appropriate.

However, to his surprise, Xue Ningshan did not heed his request. Instead, her phoenix eyes were locked tightly on Gu Chen, her gaze intense and fervent as she said, "This gentleman must be the renowned mysterious powerhouse that the entire Gray Domain has been buzzing about, the first to top the Golden Rankings among the younger generation—Gu Jiuge, am I right?"
