Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 764 - 541: Gu Chen and Chu Yue Ling_1

In Shen Zhou, at the heart of Tiandu, within the secret chamber of the Jing Tian Department headquarters.

At this moment, Gu Chen held a jade slip in his hand, but instead of choosing to contact Chu Yue Ling immediately, he was deploying the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill. Although it was only at a minor stage of mastery, it was, after all, a divine technique. Driven by the cultivation of the Divine Intent Realm, its power was extraordinarily profound.

In an instant, waves of starlight cascaded like water, gathering behind Gu Chen and forming a massive star disc that slowly rotated.

At this moment, after deploying the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill, Gu Chen felt his vision infinitely elevated. It was as if he had become a creator, observing the entire region of the Nine Provinces with an overlooking gaze. Countless streams of information flashed before his eyes like a torrent, with various scenes continuously emerging in his mind.

For warriors with slightly weaker spiritual power, this kind of impact would be extremely intense, and there was a significant chance they would suffer serious damage as a result.

Hum!

The starlight burst forth, and Gu Chen's eyes shone like stars. He was using the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill to deduce the whereabouts of the demonic cult leader, Dugu Yun.

Now, since the opponent had not yet appeared, it meant that his strength had not reached its peak, and he had not yet broken through to the Heavenly Human Realm.

As long as Dugu Yun was still in the Divine Intent Realm, even if he was a demonic being, Gu Chen felt confident he could battle and overcome him.

However, it was a pity that even Gu Chen, who was of the Divine Intent Realm employing the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill, found it difficult to trace the whereabouts of the demonic cult leader, Dugu Yun.

This could not help but make Gu Chen frown.

Regarding Dugu Yun, even though Gu Chen had now reached the Divine Intent Realm, possessed a martial power of four thousand four hundred years, and was accompanied by eight supreme divine techniques, he still did not dare to underestimate him the slightest.

After all, the opponent was no longer of the Human Clan but had become possessed by a demonic being, higher than ghastly ghosts.

It is known that even the weakest of such demonic beings possess strength equivalent to the Human Clan's ultimate martial pinnacle of the Heavenly Human Realm. Once the opponent's strength was restored, even Gu Chen would struggle to deal with him easily.

And once his strength was fully restored to the Heavenly Human Realm, that would be the moment when the demonic cult leader Dugu Yun would emerge from his seclusion.

"As expected, it's still no use," Gu Chen frowned and finally dispersed his power, no longer forcibly continuing to deduce through the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill.

However, suddenly, in the next moment, Gu Chen inexplicably sensed a feeling of crisis, with a slight prickling sensation emanating from the pores all over his body.

"Hmm?" This made Gu Chen raise his brows in surprise. Given his current level of cultivation, who could bring him such a feeling?

"Heavenly retribution?!"

In an instant, Gu Chen understood the reason. It turned out that his previous probing into the heavens had almost brought disaster upon him, invoking heavenly retribution.

When the Tower Supervisor had passed on the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill to him, he had been warned not to use it lightly to surmise the workings of heaven, as it would surely result in a spiritual backlash.

In that situation just now, the influx of immense information into his mind indeed put a significant strain on a warrior's spiritual essence. It's no wonder the Tower Supervisor, who had been doing this for years, was affected at his foundation, leading to an inability to condense Divine Intent.

Fortunately, Gu Chen had not rashly tried to probe the future; otherwise, it would not have been just a feeling — actual divine punishment would have descended.

The reason why he could not deduce Dugu Yun's location was not because the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill was weak, but because the opponent was not a native creature of the Nine Provinces, originated from beyond its borders, and was a mysterious and unpredictable demonic being. Moreover, the opponent's cultivation surpassed Gu Chen's, which resulted in this situation.

Of course, while using the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill just now, it wasn't without gains. He noticed that once again, individuals from the upper realms had descended upon the Nine Provinces, and this time, there were quite a number of them.

Among them, there were several exceptionally prominent auras, remarkably conspicuous, which Gu Chen found hard to forget, and indeed, was quite concerned about.

"It seems the upper realm is still not giving up on the Nine Provinces," Gu Chen murmured softly, his expression somewhat somber. The auras he had sensed belonged to saintly sons of various holy lands.

"What exactly is this so-called transcendent legacy of the Nine Provinces?" Gu Chen wondered, his curiosity piqued. Even though he now possessed the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill, the legacy still remained a mystery to him, shrouded and unclear.

Gu Chen refrained from forcing it; after all, it was a matter of great importance, left by beings even the upper realms called supreme. If he were to force it with his current realm, he had a premonition that he would suffer severe damage, or even possibly meet his demise.

"The workings of heaven truly cannot be recklessly conjectured," Gu Chen sighed lightly. This was also what the Tower Supervisor had imparted to him when passing on the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill.

Furthermore, the future is ever-changing, with countless possibilities. Even the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill could not possibly grasp them all, and it was not within Gu Chen's current capacity to endure.

If one were to probe too deeply or try to intervene prematurely based on knowledge gained, divine punishment would indeed descend in an instant.

Before such heavenly might, even Gu Chen, who had reached the Divine Intent Realm, could not withstand it; he would be annihilated instantly, his soul scattered.

One should not probe the future lightly; this was the Tower Supervisor's most profound admonition to Gu Chen.

Of course, besides learning of the descent of individuals from the upper realm, using the Heavenly Human Gazing Skill this time also yielded some other benefits.

Immediately afterward, Gu Chen glanced at the jade-like bone chip in his hand. With a thought, a wave of azure light rippled across the bone chip, conveying his thoughts outward.

This was given to him by the saintess of Taoxu Road, Chu Yue Ling, who had approached him on her own initiative after his battle with King Huai to quell the chaos in Tiandu. She wanted to join Gu Chen in the search for the legacy and had made it clear that if Gu Chen was interested, he could contact her using this jade chip.
