Nuclear-powered Sword Immortal-Chapter 34 - : Arrival
Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Arrival
Heavenly Grass Pavilion.
Due to the need for planting medicinal herbs, Heavenly Grass Pavilion was located at the edge of the North City of Starlight City.
Although the location was somewhat remote, the area it occupied exceeded that of Xuanwu Sect, Dragon Sparrow Manor, and the Four Great Families.
...
Night fell.
The lights in Heavenly Grass Pavilion were brightly lit.
Especially in several places, it was as bright as day.
Those were the core areas of Heavenly Grass Pavilion, namely Heavenly Justice Hall where sect matters were handled, the Seven Treasures Hall where elixirs and supplies were stored, and Longevity Hall, which required strict vigilance due to the Supreme Elder's seclusion, among others.
Although the residence of Vice Pavilion Master Bai Yang was lively with many disciples, it was much quieter compared to these core areas.
"Master, shall we just storm in?"
Outside the courtyard, Su Nanxing looked at Gu Jinlai, who was fully armed and wearing armor.
"I alone will go, and if a Refining God appears, you burn down the Seven Treasures Hall to attract attention and facilitate our retreat,"
Gu Jinlai pointed to a box beside him. "Inside are high combustible materials. You just need to throw them into the Seven Treasures Hall to set it ablaze."
The technique of making burning bottles with highly flammable liquids such as alcohol and ether is basically known to all Blue Star people.
"Understood."
Su Nanxing nodded.
"Besides Bai Yang, this chief culprit, who else has taken action?"
Gu Jinlai said.
Su Nanxing pondered.
Bai Yang's disciples, he didn't even know the True Inheritors of Heavenly Grass Pavilion.
Should he... mention everyone?
"Never mind, I'll not ask. Those standing in my way will be killed; who lives and who dies is up to their own fate."
Gu Jinlai's expression was serene.
Then, with firm strides, he headed towards Heavenly Grass Pavilion.
No matter how much he suppressed his aura, two thousand pounds in weight made too much noise when he ran.
He had just crossed the outer high walls of Heavenly Grass Pavilion when three patrolling disciples became aware of him: "Who goes there!?"
Gu Jinlai ignored them, aiming at the courtyard where Bai Yang resided, he sped up, visualizing the Treasure Armor in his spirit world, preparing to fuse with his Co-spirit.
"Stop."
The patrolling disciple leaped forward, his sword slicing towards Gu Jinlai.
Gu Jinlai didn't even glance at him. He swung his War Sword, and the thousand-pound force created a hurricane at an astonishing speed. It exploded with a force comparable to a full-strength strike at the Peak of Hugging Pill, instantly pulverizing the disciple and his sword.
The fierce power caused him to fly back faster than he had come, and before he hit the ground, he was already soundless.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The remaining two disciples screamed in terror, one of them immediately launching a signal.
Brilliant fireworks shot into the sky, exploding in the pitch-black night.
Gu Jinlai's expression remained serene, his target clear.
In a flash, Bai Yang's courtyard was right before him.
Due to the disciple releasing the signal, Bai Yang had already been alerted and led a dozen or so disciples charging out.
Seeing Gu Jinlai, entirely encased in War Armor, Bai Yang's pupils contracted, "Who are you to dare run wild in our Heavenly Grass Pavilion!"
Gu Jinlai's gaze swept over the dozen or so people.
Yellow names were the majority; there was only one Bright Red name, and it wasn't Bai Yang but one of his Gang Condensation disciples.
"Master, the material of the Treasure Armor he is wearing seems consistent with the one Gu Jinlai sent over today..."
A disciple suddenly said.
"What!? Are you Gu Jinlai!?"
Bai Yang's expression was shocked, his disbelief growing.
"You fell from Refining God and even switched to cultivating as a Heavenly Master, and you dare come to our Heavenly Grass Pavilion seeking death!?"
He then burst into laughter, "Heaven has roads, but you choose none, to hell with no doors yet you barge in! Come then, do not leave! From now on, obediently stay in our Heavenly Grass Pavilion and be an Artifact Slave, our Heavenly Grass Pavilion..."
"Boom!"
Before Bai Yang could finish speaking, Gu Jinlai's figure fiercely charged forward. His body, weighing over two thousand pounds, pounced downward, bringing a surge of violent Qi along with the ferocity of his Middle-level Demon Body, instantly causing Bai Yang's face to change drastically.
"Form a defensive formation!"
Bai Yang let out a low growl.
His dozen disciples quickly formed a formation. freёweɓnovel.com
"Boom!"
The next moment, Gu Jinlai's figure shot into the newly-formed formation like a fired shell.
For an instant, it seemed as if several kilograms of explosives had detonated in the void, visible ripples spreading with the shockwave, the pure physical impact mixed with the Hugging Pill Level's Gang Qi burst forth, nearly creating a breach in the formation of more than a dozen people.
The disciple targeted by Gu Jinlai felt as if he had been struck by a car traveling at three hundred kilometers per hour, his body thrown backwards as he spat out bright red blood.
"Ah Chi!"
Bai Yang roared, his sword bursting forth with brilliant sword light, as if carrying a streak of lightning as it fiercely struck Gu Jinlai's body.
"Die!"
"Clang!"
Sparks flew.
A boom resonated through the void, like the sound of a great bell.
It seemed that Bai Yang had not struck a Top-grade Treasure Armor, but a lump of pure steel!
A thousand-pound lump of fine iron!
The bursting power and the jetting Gang Qi tore a sword mark on the steel armor, but the more intense rebounding force impacted his sword-wielding right hand, nearly bursting his grip and fracturing his wrist.
"This armor!?"
Bai Yang's eyes widened suddenly.
"Whoosh!"
The giant sword swept across.
The two-meter-long giant sword represented a killing range far superior to that of ordinary men.
Gang Condensation could reputedly spit out swords and kill from ten steps away, but it only killed ordinary men.
Against Protective True Qi, one still had to fight with real swords and spears.
At this moment, Gu Jinlai charged into the formation, utterly unguarded, sweeping his giant sword around and instantly killing three of the surrounding disciples.
While he killed these three, four disciples also struck, targeting his Treasure Armor.
But, if the powerful Bai Yang, at the Peak of Hugging Pill holding a top-grade Treasure Sword, could not even scratch the heavy armor on Gu Jinlai, what could those Qi Refinement and Gang Condensation disciples holding Low Grade Treasure Swords and even Supreme Weapons do?
Sparks flew.
The blade's Gang Qi merely left marks of varying depths on Gu Jinlai's War Armor, failing to cause any harm to him.
In contrast, those disciples who struck with all their might, their palms splitting open and bleeding under the recoil, stared in disbelief.
"Is he wearing... Supreme Treasure Armor!?"
"No, it's an armor forged in the form of heavy armor! Not even a top-grade Treasure Sword can break through!"
"Use Penetration, damage his internal organs, shatter his organs!"
The surrounding disciples yelled one after another, their faces both shocked and furious.
Shocked by the ferocity Gu Jinlai displayed, furious that he had blatantly charged into the Heavenly Grass Pavilion and killed their fellow disciples.
"Trying to stop the wheels with mantis arms!"
Gu Jinlai wielded his sword, charging and smashing through the surround of more than a dozen people.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Those attempting to damage him with Penetration, one disciple was smashed to death, another was crushed to death, and yet another was kicked to death!
It seemed he was surrounded by more than a dozen people, but in reality, it was he alone who was slaughtering amidst them with his sword.
Wherever the sword blade pointed, at the very least, limbs and arms were severed.
If struck directly by him, regardless of whether those disciples used their swords to block or Protected themselves with True Qi, all were reduced to blood mist without any suspense, hardly leaving an intact corpse.
"Junior Brother!"
"Ah! Help me! Save me!"
"My hand… I've lost my hand…"
The scent of blood mixed with terrified screams quickly permeated the scene.
The hearts of those shocked and furious disciples were instantly filled with terror.
"Retreat! Retreat! Quickly retreat! Stop! Gu Jinlai, have you gone mad!?"
Bai Yang shouted in shock and fury.
Among his sixteen disciples, one Hugging Pill, six Gang Condensation, and nine Qi Refinement, were suddenly massacred by Gu Jinlai with overwhelming force, leaving more than half dead!
These were the very foundations that allowed him to firmly hold the position of Vice Pavilion Master!
To lose half of them in an instant was causing his heart to bleed.
