Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

Struck by Ning Tian's thick and pillar-like Gangqi, Gu Chen was sent flying out immediately.

Even ordinary martial artists, after breaking through to the Returning to True Stage and converting Gangqi into true energy, would experience a transformation. Not to mention those who cultivated extraordinary Gangqi.

After the extraordinary Gangqi transformed into true energy, its power would surge by several times!

As for Ning Tian, his cultivation was at the great perfection of the Returning to True Stage and he ranked fifth on the Leaderboard of Heroes; his strength was naturally terrifying.

Even if he faced a grandmaster-level character who had undergone a blood exchange once, Ning Tian was confident he could escape.

At this moment, everyone was staring in the direction where Gu Chen had flown, wondering how he fared after taking a solid hit from Ning Tian.

Bang!

Out of the dust-filled sky, a figure glowing with dazzling golden light burst forth, clenching a fist imprint, like a bolt of lightning.

Upon seeing this, Ning Tian's face immediately tensed. How could Gu Chen be unharmed? Impossible!

Taking a deep breath, Ning Tian stepped back with a mysterious footwork, preparing to avoid the sharp edge for now.

"The indestructible Vajra body truly lives up to its reputation!" said Zhuo Siyuan in white robes with a deep voice.

Even he, being at the same realm as Ning Tian, would definitely not be unscathed if he had taken that hit just now.

"Eldest senior brother, shall we?" That's when Wu Changyun looked to Zhuo Siyuan.

Zhuo Siyuan frowned and said, "We can't let Gu Chen get the Sun Flame Stone. I think he definitely wants to use it to refine extraordinary Gangqi."

As the leading true disciple of the Da Guangming Sect of this generation, he naturally had an extraordinary insight and could see through Gu Chen's intention at a glance.

The main point was that the Gangqi in Gu Chen's body had yang attributes. Although powerful, it was still a ways off from being extraordinary Gangqi.

Zhuo Siyuan was also aware of the role of Sun Flame Stone, and combining these points, he could naturally guess Gu Chen's purpose.

Gu Chen, now a representative figure of the Jing Tian Department, would inevitably become their enemy if they were to betray Da Xia in the future. This was a certainty.

Therefore, it was natural that Zhuo Siyuan and his companions did not wish to see Gu Chen grow stronger. If Gu Chen got the Sun Flame Stone, it would be tantamount to aiding an enemy.

Although the three sects also had disputes, when facing Da Xia, the Jianghu forces had always moved together.

Gu Chen was fast, but Ning Tian was not slow either; evidently, he also mastered a superior step technique.

After all, as a favored disciple of a top sect like Ning Tian, who was also designated the next sect leader, techniques were never a problem for him as long as he had the effort and ability to master them.

Whoosh!

Gu Chen used his like-shadow-following-form skill, locking onto Ning Tian from a distance, his figure flashed, and he was behind Ning Tian in an instant, swift as a streak of floating light.

Ning Tian was startled, but he had been prepared for this. In an instant, the Purple Heaven True Gang surged around his body, crackling with electricity as bursts of lightning suddenly appeared.

"Purple thunder body protection god gang!"

With a cold shout from Ning Tian, the Purple Heaven True Gang turned into purple thunder, flickering over his body. Countless streaks of electricity converged and struck towards Gu Chen.

Gu Chen was enveloped by a dazzling golden light, and with the electric strikes from Ning Tian's body moving incredibly fast, even Gu Chen couldn't avoid them at such a close distance and was hit squarely.

"Brother Ning is mighty!"

When the Xuantian Sect disciples saw this, they immediately shouted out in exhilaration.

A tingling sensation came through; even with Gu Chen's Vajra indestructible body, he couldn't remain completely unscathed.

At that moment, Ning Tian turned around and struck with the palm of his hand, hitting Gu Chen's chest. With a sound like a gong, Gu Chen's body was once again thrown out.

But Gu Chen's Vajra body was indeed formidable, his defensive power being top-notch. Even after taking three attacks from Ning Tian, he remained unharmed.

Ning Tian's brows immediately furrowed; he could feel the strength of Gu Chen's physique when that palm hit him, truly comparable to the ancient barbaric dragon, hardly able to harm him at all.

"Great Enchantment Skill!"

"Fiery Fist!"

In that moment, seeing Gu Chen's figure dashing towards the location of the Sun Flame Stone, the expressions of Zhuo Siyuan and the other two darkened instantly.

"Purple thunder body protection god gang!"

With a loud shout from Ning Tian, he stretched out his hand and countless bursts of purple lightning converged into a giant hand, together with the Fiery Fist from Qiu Zhen, it struck towards Gu Chen.

At the same time, the Great Enchantment Skill released by Zhuo Siyuan was also disturbing Gu Chen's mind.

"Vajra Indestructible!"

Gu Chen let out a low shout, and rich golden light burst forth from every part of his body. That moment, Gu Chen was completely golden, his vigorous life-force permeating through, filling the void, as if he were a war god from the heavens!

Bang!

At the same time, Gu Chen pressed against the void with his fingertips. One after another, thick sword qi shot out, targeting Zhuo Siyuan and the others.

After unleashing several Holy Light Skill strikes, Gu Chen clenched his fist, shattering the attacks from the trio of Zhuo Siyuan into powder.

"Stop him, he must not succeed!" Qiu Zhen saw Gu Chen nearing the Sun Flame Stone and immediately panicked.

Zhuo Siyuan and Ning Tian also frowned deeply; if even their combined forces were unable to stop Gu Chen, it would be a tremendous blow to them.

At this moment, even Zhuo Siyuan could not remain calm. He made his move directly, shouting, "Holy Light Skill!"

Instantly, burst after burst of light surged from his body, carrying a force that seemed capable of purifying the world, and struck towards Gu Chen.
