Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 1592: 410: The Martial Emperor Reveals His Holiness2

Chapter 1592: Chapter 410: The Martial Emperor Reveals His Holiness_2

“My old friends, it has indeed been a long ti.” Gu Chen smiled as he talked to himself.

He hadn’t yet decided whether to make an appearance; after all, having been away for so long, he was now no more than a passerby in the lands of Jiuzhou, and it was impossible for him to stay for an extended period.

His presence here was solely to collect the remaining seven of the Nine Tripod Cauldrons. Once gathered, he would depart.

The reason for appearing here was rely a little selfish desire of Gu Chen’s to savor the past and to understand the current state of affairs in Jiuzhou.

It was sowhat surprising to Gu Chen that Diancang Pavilion had continued to thrive up to now. Although after he had vanquished their master, Thousand-Handed King Zhou Yuan, he hadn’t really targeted Diancang Pavilion, the resurgence of a power after its master’s fall did demonstrate its extraordinary traits.

After his departure, the dynamics among the world’s powers had significantly shifted.

The Jianghu of Jiuzhou nowadays was dominated by three major forces: Martial Emperor Pavilion, Mysterious Robe League, and, lastly, Diancang Pavilion.

The forr two had an extrely significant connection with Gu Chen.

The master of Martial Emperor Pavilion, and all its martial artists, had gathered there out of their profound admiration for Gu Chen.

This master could even be called Gu Chen’s number one die-hard fan; he was so obsessed that he had morized verbatim the biography of Gu Chen published by the imperial court.

The sa held true for the Mysterious Robe League.

Gu Chen was often seen in a mysterious robe, and based on this legend, the Mysterious Robe League was established. Its mbers, no matter the ti or place, would always wear mysterious robes, as a gesture of respect for the legendary Martial Emperor.

When Gu Chen learned of these details, he couldn’t help but smile wryly, having not expected to wield such an extent of influence in Jiuzhou.

Although the current Jiuzhou situation was sowhat tense, Gu Chen did not intend to take action.

Because, given his current strength, if he were to make a move, it would be disproportionately overwhelming, and to describe it as using a sledgehamr to crack a nut would be an understatent.

“Let it be, I shall not reveal myself; just a brief visitor, there’s no need to affect the moods of others.” Gu Chen shook his head.

He knew that if he made an appearance, it would undoubtedly lead to turmoil across the whole world, and all his old friends would abandon everything they were doing to show up.

Similarly, since he couldn’t stay in Jiuzhou for too long, there was no need to reveal himself and affect their sentints.

“Once I’ve collected the Nine Tripods, I will imdiately leave.” Gu Chen thought to himself, drinking while taking in the beautiful scenery of Tiandu.

“Hmm?”

Just at that mont, Gu Chen furrowed his brows, sensing an unusual aura.

“Demonic energy?” he murmured, his eyes suddenly turning fierce.

One should know, for the purpose of expelling the demons from Jiuzhou, he had risked his life, entered the spatial passageway, fought alone against all odds, and expended a trendous amount of energy to purge them.

And now, after nearly two decades of peace in Jiuzhou, soone was actually contacting the netherworld?

In an instant, a murderous intent began to grow in Gu Chen’s heart.

Yes, this thread of demonic energy would not have appeared if soone wasn’t secretly making contact with the netherworld.

Fortunately, Gu Chen managed to swiftly contain his murderous aura to avoid causing collateral damage.

“This world is too fragile for ,” Gu Chen sighed inwardly.

Compared to the warriors and commoners of the Jiuzhou world, he was like the difference between a dragon and an ant; any careless action could potentially cause irreparable damage to this world.

“Daring to make secret contact with the netherworld, no matter who you are, you must die!” Gu Chen’s expression turned cold. He originally did not intend to interfere in the affairs of Jiuzhou this ti, but unexpectedly, such an incident had occurred.

It could only be said that his trip had not been in vain; otherwise, if the netherworld were to pinpoint the coordinates of the Jiuzhou world before the approach of the Great Calamity, all his previous efforts would have been in vain.

Whoosh!

The next mont, Gu Chen’s figure disappeared from the tavern, leaving behind so coins on the table.

“Diancang Pavilion?”

With Gu Chen’s speed, he could instantly travel to any part of Jiuzhou, and he discovered the source of the demonic energy that had just arisen was actually here.

Gu Chen’s brow furrowed slightly, and his figure flickered, entering Diancang Pavilion without alerting anyone.

The two martial arts guards at the door, with noteworthy skills, detected nothing at all.

Gu Chen moved forward, reaching the central eighth floor of Diancang Pavilion, where a middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged in a room, surrounded by black energy flashing, holding a divine weapon filled with fresh blood, conducting so kind of evil ritual.

“It is indeed you.” Gu Chen arrived at the spot, his eyes indifferent, looking at the middle-aged man.

Since Gu Chen didn’t conceal his presence, the middle-aged man, who was in the midst of the ritual with his eyes closed, sensed sothing at the mont Gu Chen spoke, and shouted, “Who?!”

When he saw Gu Chen, his heart was struck with surprise, feeling a sense of familiarity but couldn’t recall imdiately where he had seen him before.

“Who are you, and why are you breaking into Diancang Pavilion in the dead of night?” Zhou Ran spoke up, who was a descendant of Zhou Yuan, the previous master of Diancang Pavilion known as the Thousand-Hand King, and now a vice-master of Diancang Pavilion, holding a high position.

Gu Chen didn’t pay him any heed, and instead said coldly, “Committing bloodshed, killing countless, using evil thods to connect with the underworld, do you not know that Jiuzhou once suffered greatly from the harm of fiends and ghosts!”

Zhou Ran’s eyebrows knitted, and he flipped his palm to put away the divine weapon used for the ritual; this matter absolutely could not be exposed, and at this mont, he was harboring the intent to kill.

“Ha!” Gu Chen clearly perceived his killing intent, and laughed imdiately.

“Ignorance truly is fearless.” Gu Chen shook his head.

The next mont, without any visible movent from him, Zhou Ran’s body began to disappear from the bottom up, gradually turning into dust and scattering to the winds.

This scene was astonishing!

Zhou Ran was dumbfounded; such divine-like thods, he had never seen before. Looking at Gu Chen’s face, a flicker of recognition flashed through his mind.

He exclaid, “You… you are Martial Emperor Gu Chen?!”

Zhou Ran couldn’t fathom that soone who had already ascended to the higher realms would appear before him!

But it was too late, he would never get the answer. As the thought materialized in his mind, he perished on the spot, disappearing from the myriad worlds, with his soul completely dissipated.

Zhou Ran’s demise instantly awakened the current master of Diancang Pavilion—Qi Zhen.

This Pavilion Master, who was previously in ditation, suddenly opened his eyes when he sensed the occurrence and was shocked, hastily making his way to Zhou Ran’s residence.

There was only one floor between the two of them.

“Zhou Ran, has perished?” Qi Zhen murmured to himself in shock; how could a vice-master just vanish under his watch?

Especially since Zhou Ran’s presence had just been felt a mont ago.

“Secretly colluding with the underworld, conspiring with evil spirits to harm Jiuzhou, such cris deserve death!” A voice echoed from the unknown, reaching Qi Zhen’s ears, causing him to tremble.

This was naturally Gu Chen, who, with his current capabilities, could discern everything in Diancang Pavilion with just a thought.

Had he not found out that only Zhou Ran was problematic here, he would have destroyed the entire Diancang Pavilion.

But as Qi Zhen was the Pavilion Master and had failed his duty of oversight, Gu Chen issued a warning.

“This voice… why does this voice sound so familiar?” Qi Zhen trembled, as one of the most powerful individuals in Jiuzhou and the master of Diancang Pavilion, the one who could silently kill Zhou Ran and communicate with him in such a way, making him undetectable, must be an extraordinary expert!

“No… this isn’t right!”

But soon, Qi Zhen’s expression changed as he recognized the owner of the voice!

Back then, when Qi Zhen was the vice-master of Diancang Pavilion, it was he who had recorded Gu Chen’s na when he first ascended the List of Stars.

And the subsequent rise to power of Gu Chen had also made a profound impression on Qi Zhen, filled with emotion.

“Is it… the Martial Emperor?! Is it the Martial Emperor who has manifested?!”

At this mont, Qi Zhen was utterly dumbfounded, with only this thought in his mind, his body shaking, overwheld with excitent and thrill to the extre!
