Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 1424 - 316 Unparalleled in the World, Unique under the Heavens_3

Gu Chen fiercely pointed, hitting the gigantic, mountain-like golden sacred sword with his fleshly body, issuing a clanging sound that seemed capable of shattering the heavens.

A crystal-clear drop of blood slid from the tip of Gu Chen’s finger, causing his brow to furrow slightly.

"Huh?!"

Jin Lie was greatly shocked. He knew that this was the sacred artifact left to him by his father, the Peng Emperor, which accompanied his growth. It even had a chance to become a Dao weapon if it were to fuse with the ultimate divine items like the Solar Immortal Gold.

Although its current grade was not high, it was nonetheless nurtured by one of the supreme beings of the heavens, incomparable in both sturdiness and sharpness. How could it fail to even injure Gu Chen?

Jin Lie racked his brains but could not understand.

At that moment, Gu Chen spoke, "Making me bleed will come at a price."

As soon as his words fell, with a puchi sound, Gu Chen took action, brutally breaking Jin Lie’s massive Peng claw. The gigantic golden sacred sword was now in his hands.

However, this sword, being a sacred inheritance artifact left by the Peng Emperor to Jin Lie, had already recognized its master and was tumbling about restlessly in Gu Chen’s hands.

Gu Chen’s sword brows slightly knit together, and light flickered in his eyes. He exerted a slight force with his hand, and invisible ripples spread, suppressing the golden sacred sword instantly.

"Return my treasure!" Jin Lie roared, his eyes turning red.

"Nothing here is yours; it all belongs to me. And it’s time for you to depart!" Gu Chen shouted coldly, his black hair flying about, his gaze merciless and cold.

"Roar!"

Jin Lie was furious. In his Dao palace, a boundless golden storm erupted, and he bellowed, "Burn my immortal spirit true blood, unleash the supreme power, the Peerless Peng, slaughter the heavens and the earth!"

Boom!

A loud rumble came through as if the ten directions of heaven were collapsing, spreading an incredibly horrifying aura in the place, drowning it in a deluge of golden light.

At this moment, everyone’s body trembled uncontrollably as if they had fallen into an ice cave, feeling various profound unsettled emotions.

It was as if, in the mysterious beyond, a demon god from an ancient era opened its eyes, watching over this place, instilling a sense of crisis deep into the marrow, nearly rending spirit and flesh apart.

Even Gu Chen, visibly, became more serious.

Hiss!

The next moment, a beam of killing light burst forth, assailing like thousands of waves, violently shaking the golden Dao palace as if it were going to be split open.

This strike was extraordinarily remarkable, horrifying beyond belief, and immensely powerful!

"Ah... am I going to die?"

Here, countless fiends cried out in alarm, merely bystanders, yet their bodies began splashing with blood, panic overtaking them.

Suddenly, the killing light moved incredibly fast, like lightning, arriving in front of Gu Chen in an instant, intent on tearing him to pieces.

But Gu Chen was not the least bit flustered. Seemingly in a trance, billions of divine rays blossomed around him, and chants from various deities faintly echoed.

The next moment, all abnormal phenomena returned to calm, the killing light completely vanished.

He could have chosen to use divine powers to resolve the matter, but Gu Chen instead selected the most swift method from his array of techniques.

"It’s over!"

When the myriad lights dispersed, those present witnessed a scene so horrifying and unforgettable.

The pure-blooded celestial creature, the golden-winged Peng, was cleaved straight through by the golden sacred sword in Gu Chen’s hand, a spurt of blood raining down like a torrential downpour, the Dao palace echoing with Jin Lie’s mournful cry.

Such a scene shook the world, and not just the onlookers— even the mightiest beings from the upper realms, who were watching the battle, held their breath in utmost concentration.

An indeterminate amount of time later, from the direction of the East Profound Region, a grand voice was finally heard.

"Unprecedented and unparalleled, without peer under the heavens."

These eight words were the best description of Gu Chen’s current strength, and the one who uttered them was the Dao leader of the Taoxu Road, one of the twelve Great Undying Dao Clans!
