Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 109: Chapter 103 Condensing Pulse Sword Wave1
At this mont, everyone present, regardless of who they were, stared dumbfounded at the scene before them.
What did they see? Like sothing out of a dream, the massive cauldron, weighing a hundred and eighty thousand catties, was actually hoisted above Gu Chen's head!
Cao Zhen was also stunned, never having anticipated Gu Chen to possess such strength.
As for Liang Xu, he was completely dumbstruck, standing there with a blank look and unseeing eyes.
Duke of the Liang State and the rest of the nobility were even more shocked, their mouths moving like mutes, unable to utter a single word.
Lu Xinlan's beautiful eyes widened, her delicate hand gently covering her red lips, her lovely face filled with astonishnt, her long eyelashes blinking rapidly, feeling the scene before her was too unreal.
Even Chen Yu himself felt sowhat astonished. He watched Gu Chen with slightly raised eyebrows. He had anticipated Gu Chen could lift this third cauldron, but he did not expect it to be done with such apparent ease.
"Good!"
At this mont, the Duke of the Liang State shouted loudly, awakening everyone from their shock. Right then, his expression was exhilarated, his aged face flushed with excitent, his eyes shining as he looked at Gu Chen in the field as if he were a rare uncut jade.
Bang!
At this ti, Gu Chen put down the cauldron, and the ground shook once more, proving to the crowd that the cauldron was indeed extraordinarily heavy.
"I don't believe it, I can't accept it!"
Liang Xu also snapped out of it at this mont. He shouted and ran up, trying to lift the third cauldron as well.
"Xu'er!"
Seeing this, Uncle Dingyuan's expression changed dramatically, wanting to stop Liang Xu, but at that mont, Liang Xu mustered all his strength, even using every ounce he had, yet the third cauldron still did not budge.
The Duke of the Liang State saw this and shook his head.
"Master Liang, won't you take a look? It seems your son has suffered a great deal," Chen Yu said with a slight smile, looking at Uncle Dingyuan who stood there.
Uncle Dingyuan gritted his teeth at Chen Yu, and then looked at Gu Chen with an extrely gloomy expression.
Suddenly, Chen Yu's expression changed, and in a cold tone, he said, "I advise you not to mistake yourself. If anything happens to Gu Chen, you will be the one to answer for it."
"Chen Yu, how arrogant you are!" Uncle Dingyuan could no longer hold back and shouted angrily at Chen Yu.
Chen Yu's expression was cold as he looked at Uncle Dingyuan and said, "Before, I didn't want to stoop to your level. If you dare to pester again, feel free to try!"
"Chen Yu!"
In front of everybody, Chen Yu showed no regard for Uncle Dingyuan's dignity, causing Uncle Dingyuan's face to turn ashen. He was about to make a move.
"What is this behavior!"
At this point, the Duke of the Liang State's expression darkened as he looked at Uncle Dingyuan and said, "Liang Wei, rember your status. Do you want to lose face in front of the younger generation?"
Upon hearing this, Uncle Dingyuan Liang Wei looked around and saw that all eyes were focused on him. He snorted coldly and, without another word, took the disoriented Liang Xu and turned to leave.
"Rember my words!" Chen Yu said coldly.
Uncle Dingyuan paused in his step but did not look back and quickly left the area.
Having lost so much face, how could he stay any longer?
At this ti, everyone's gaze towards Gu Chen had changed, and even the civil officials felt the sa way.
Gu Chen was rely at the external air stage, yet he possessed such colossal strength. What would it be like if he reached the Vajra Stage?
The Duke of the Liang State wore a look of joy, ca up to Gu Chen, looked him over from left to right, making Gu Chen feel extrely uncomfortable.
Even Lu Xinlan was sizing up Gu Chen with a curious gaze, her beautiful eyes lingering on him for a long ti.
Just when Gu Chen felt he could take no more, Chen Yu ca over and freed him from the encirclent.
"Duke of the Liang State, what are you looking at? Just to be clear, he's my man," Chen Yu said with a smile.
"A genius of a generation, such an extraordinary talent," the Duke of the Liang State couldn't stop praising Gu Chen. He looked at Chen Yu and said gravely, "He definitely has the potential to reach the third level of the Vajra Stage!"
Initially, the Duke of the Liang State wanted Chen Yu to hand over Gu Chen for him to train, but upon further thought, he realized the resources of the Jing Tian Departnt far exceeded those of a duke's mansion, so he extinguished that thought.
Chen Yu also nodded; he did not deny this, as he saw Gu Chen as a natural-born warrior. It was only natural for him to reach this point, but what Chen Yu did not expect was Gu Chen's rapid growth.
The Duke of the Liang State looked at Gu Chen and said, "Tell , what is it that you desire? As long as it's within my power, I will grant it to you."
Because of Gu Chen's potential, the Duke of the Liang State did not mind offering a more substantial reward.
Gu Chen was tempted to ask for a look at the Superior Martial Skills, but after considering it, he remained silent.
After all, that would be asking for too much. Under the watchful eyes of all, the Duke of the Liang State might be unable to save face, and the goodwill towards Gu Chen could dissipate.
"As for that request, I will make it on behalf of Gu Chen. That's not a problem, right?" Chen Yu said at this mont.
The last sentence, however, was directed at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen naturally had no objections and nodded hurriedly.
"What do you want?" Duke of the Liang State looked towards Chen Yu.
"I'm not greedy, a set of high-quality martial arts as agreed. I'll choose the Condensing Pulse Sword Wave," Chen Yu said with a light smile, dressed in a blue robe.
At his words, Duke of the Liang State raised an eyebrow. Chen Yu really knew how to pick. The Condensing Pulse Sword Wave was indeed high-quality martial arts but certainly ranked amongst the top tier of high-quality martial arts. It was also his famous special skill in his youth.
The Condensing Pulse Sword Wave was a superior martial art that could transform inner breath into sword qi. Once the veins in the hands were condensed, each of the ten fingers was like a sharp sword, capable of launching sword qi at enemies at any ti and place.
When the sword strike was launched, it was as rapid as lightning and incredibly swift. Changing breath into sword qi, it could kill soone in the blink of an eye.
The power of each sword qi depended on the individual cultivation of the martial artist using it. If the cultivation was sufficient, the sword qi emitted by both hands could be as strong as attacks from mid-tier or even high-tier treasured weapons.
Moreover, each sword qi was extrely well-condensed. At the very least, it could shoot out several ters, making it a divine skill for long-range encounters. With this martial art, the Duke of the Liang State had killed countless barbarians on the frontier in his youth. The enemy would not even see him before a sword qi burst forth, taking their lives in the flash of lightning.
Duke of the Liang State gave a wry smile. Now, how could he not understand that everything had been preditated by Chen Yu, who took advantage of the opportunity to speak up?
Even if there had been no competition between Gu Chen and Liang Xu today, Chen Yu would have found a way to secure this martial art for Gu Chen before departing.
He was aware of Chen Yu's character; he would not have brought Gu Chen on this trip for nothing.
"You, you…" Duke of the Liang State shook his head and chuckled, but he didn't refuse. He ordered his servants to fetch the secret manual.
"This technique must not be disclosed. You better morize it here before you leave." The Duke of the Liang State then passed the secret manual to Gu Chen.
Gu Chen quickly took it, focusing entirely on morization. The secret manual wasn't lengthy, totaling less than a thousand words. Gu Chen was sharp-minded and didn't take long to morize it.
Then, Gu Chen returned the manual. Their purpose accomplished, Chen Yu prepared to leave with Gu Chen.
Before leaving, Duke of the Liang State said, "If it's not too much trouble, the young ones should get together more in the future."
Chen Yu smiled lightly and replied, "Of course, no problem."
Before departing, Gu Chen nodded to Lu Xinlan as a way of greeting, then followed Chen Yu and left the place.
They had just left the Duke's Mansion when, after getting on the carriage, Chen Yu advised, "Don't underestimate the Condensing Pulse Sword Wave just because it's a set of high-quality martial arts. If you practice it well, it might not be much inferior to Superior Martial Skills. With your profound inner breath, this kind of martial art is most suitable for you to bring into full play."
Gu Chen nodded, keeping the training thod of the Condensing Pulse Sword Wave in mind, realizing the strength of this martial art. His gratitude towards Chen Yu grew even more.
At that mont, as the carriage was making its way, it was suddenly stopped. Several clerks were waiting outside with anxious expressions.
Chen Yu stepped out of the carriage and, seeing this, frowned and asked, "What's happened?"
A clerk, in a panic, hurriedly said, "A terrible disaster, Commander Chen, Xu'an County has fallen!"
Chen Yu's expression changed and he demanded, "What's going on, explain in detail!"
The clerk quickly recounted everything.
Xu'an County, located in the western part of Liyang Mansion, had just sent an urgent ssage. Inside the county, five towns had been slaughtered to the ground, and even the County Magistrate of Xu'an County had been killed overnight!
It was confird to be the doing of the Red Fla Demon Sect under the Six Union God Sect.
The reason for the swift knowledge was that after the killing, the murderers left behind a bloodstain in the shape of a flower, blooming like flas, which was the mark specifically used by the Red Fla Demon Sect within the Six Union God Sect over three hundred years ago.
Five towns, nearly hundreds of thousands of people, were unjustly killed and devoured by demons. In just one night, all five towns beca ghost towns with no survivors.
Moreover, the Demon Sect was so brazen as to leave their marks, blatantly provoking Da Xia, provoking the Jing Tian Departnt.
After listening, Chen Yu was furious, his brows nearly standing on end, and the killing intent emanating from him was near tangible. Gu Chen felt a bone-chilling cold.
"Red—Fla—Demon—Sect!"
Chen Yu pronounced each word distinctly, his tone icy beyond asure, and his killing intent extrely dense.
Gu Chen knew that by doing this, the Six Union God Sect was essentially declaring war on Da Xia, on the Jing Tian Departnt.
The deaths of hundreds of thousands, including the suicide of the County Magistrate, highlighted the Demon Sect's extre arrogance. At this mont, Gu Chen's eyes were also chillingly cold. Hundreds of thousands of lives had vanished just like that.
The people of the Demon Sect, indeed, were no different from soulless beasts, capable of committing such acts of city slaughter.
"Tomorrow, bring Song Yu and Wang Yan with you to see at the Jing Tian Departnt. Right now, I must make a trip to the Inner City to see the Vice Commander of Jing Tian Departnt," Chen Yu said in a stern voice.
Gu Chen nodded, and Chen Yu vanished instantly from the spot without even boarding the carriage again.
Looking up at the dark sky, Gu Chen knew that the world was about to descend into complete chaos. The Demon Sect had evidently lost its patience and had made its move.
Furthermore, their initial strike ca with the ferocity of thunder, catching Da Xia off guard.
That very night, inside the Inner City of Tiandu, countless people were restless, kept awake by the news.
It was said that King Huai was furiously enraged and had summoned the Vice Commander of the Jing Tian Departnt in the middle of the night. Both sought a unified goal: this ti, the Demon Sect must pay the price it owed.
After returning to Gu Mansion, Gu Chen inford his uncle and the family of the incident. With such a grave situation unfolding, it was uncertain how long his departure from Tiandu would be delayed. If it was brief, that would be manageable, but it might take a considerable amount of ti, so letting his uncle's family know in advance would save them undue worry later on.
The next day, Gu Chen located Song Yu and Wang Yan, who had successfully broken through to the next stage and erged from seclusion, and they went together to see Chen Yu at the Jing Tian Departnt.
