Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 384 300: Holy Land Visiting (3 more thousands of wor

After the eighth blood exchange was completed, Gu Chen's entire body, including every pore and strand of hair, shone with light, even his hair strands did so.

He seed to have beco a source of light, like a miniature sun.

The vigor within Gu Chen's blood beca increasingly robust, flowing through his limbs and bones, creating sounds reminiscent of tempestuous waves.

Within his body, every part was crystal clear, even his insides were glowing, his organs were so transparent they seed to have reached a kind of extre, dazzling to behold.

"Now, after eight blood exchanges, at the early stages of the Hundred Orifices Stage, I should have no rivals," Gu Chen lightly clenched his fist, feeling the imnse power contained within his muscles.

Now, if he exerted just a little force, the ground would crack, even collapse entirely.

If he faced Jin Yan from Burning Heaven Valley again, Gu Chen felt that his opponent would definitely not be his match.

"Not enough, my cultivation is still not strong enough," Gu Chen whispered to himself.

Even with another increase in strength, the urgency in Gu Chen's heart had not diminished at all because the enemies he was facing, whether it's the six major sacred lands or Lin Bai, were all far too powerful for him.

On the side of the six major sacred lands, he had injured Chen Luo. Gu Chen knew without anyone telling him that Vault of Sky Sword Sect would not let him go, and the sect's walker of the world had even reached the Hundred Orifices Stage, rumored to be half a step away from the Innate Stage.

It must be that they had co down from the mountain this ti to achieve the Innate Stage.

Besides, Lin Bai from the Six Union God Sect was not necessarily weaker than the walker of the world from Vault of Sky Sword Sect.

The cultivation of these two far exceeded Gu Chen by too much. Facing either of them, Gu Chen might not even withstand a single encounter.

"I must reach the Hundred Orifices Stage as soon as possible. Only then, if the ancient secret realm opens, will I have the strength to contend once I enter," Gu Chen silently said to himself.

At this stage, he was only one blood exchange away from the great completion of the Rebirth Stage, so the Hundred Orifices Stage was actually not that far from Gu Chen.

Gu Chen took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the panel.

At this mont, with the Pure Yang Vajra Body reaching the entry-level, there were still two hundred and twenty rit points remaining on the panel.

Gu Chen glanced at the three Earthly Martial Skills on the panel without any hesitation. With a thought, he elevated the mysterious Tai Xu Transformation Chapter to the initial insight.

Hum!

As fifty-six rit points disappeared, the Tai Xu Transformation Chapter imdiately reached the state of initial insight, and the corresponding martial arts experience poured into Gu Chen's mind.

"Roar!"

With a dragon chant that seed to pierce the sky and the earth reverberating in his ears, suddenly, Gu Chen's vision shifted. The light and shadows changed, and he saw a towering figure transforming into a boundless true dragon, soaring into the nine heavens.

The next instant, thunder roared without end, and terrifying bolts of lightning fell one after another. Bathed in endless thunder, the dignified true dragon that seed to rule over heaven and earth shook its body gently, and imdiately, the whole sky shattered like glass, bringing forth an empty chaos.

The true essence of Tai Xu Transformation Chapter is derived from the aning of a carp transforming into a dragon. This martial arts skill can stimulate the warrior's potential to the greatest extent, allowing the warrior's cultivation, physique, strength, speed, endurance, and even ntal strength to double!

Of course, now that Gu Chen had only reached initial insight, he could not double his cultivation or physique, but could improve them by about thirty percent.

And this is rely a fragnt, less than one-tenth of the complete version. Gu Chen truly could not imagine how miraculous a complete Tai Xu Transformation Chapter would be.

Surely, it would be more than just a simple increase in combat capability.

Once the Tai Xu Transformation Chapter was upgraded, Gu Chen turned his attention to the Refining Spirit Secret and the Mountain and Sea Fist Classic. Fortunately, there were still rit points left on the panel, so he elevated both Earth Grade Martial Skills, just like the Tai Xu Transformation Chapter, to the state of initial insight.

Facing the walkers of the world from the six major sacred lands and figures like Lin Bai, Superior Martial Skills were sowhat insufficient. To compete with these people, Gu Chen believed that he still needed Earth Grade Martial Skills.

No matter how strong the physique and cultivation, without the corresponding martial skills, it is equally difficult to utilize them.

After all, the current rit points were not sufficient for Gu Chen's cultivation and physique to reach a level where he could crush figures like Lin Bai.

When the Refining Spirit Secret reached initial insight, Gu Chen felt a significant increase in the strength of his spirit. If he faced Chen Luo again, the opponent's Soul-Shocking Sword Jue would not be able to harm Gu Chen in the slightest.

As for the Mountain and Sea Fist Classic, the mont he reached initial insight, Gu Chen also imdiately felt its corresponding true essence of the martial skill. If cultivated to completion, a single punch could overturn mountains and seas and shatter the ground.

Whether it's the Tai Xu Transformation Chapter or the Refining Spirit Secret and Mountain and Sea Fist Classic, although all were only at the initial insight stage, they contributed enormously to Gu Chen's strength enhancent, much more so than upgrading Superior Martial Skills to complete mastery.

If earlier, right after undergoing eight blood exchanges, Gu Chen needed so effort to suppress Jin Yan from Burning Heaven Valley, now, within ten exchanges, Jin Yan would undoubtedly be defeated.

Imdiately afterward, Gu Chen called up the panel with a thought.

Na: Gu Chen

Internal Gongfu: Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic

rit Points: 52

Now, with only fifty-two rit points remaining on Gu Chen's panel, he pondered for a mont and then added them to the Controlling Wind Step Shadows.

And thus, the Controlling Wind Step Shadows had reached the state of great achievent.

As a set of movent skills, though rely considered Superior Martial Skills, its "Shadow Following" technique was extrely effective, having helped Gu Chen achieve wonders in combat on nurous occasions.

"As my cultivation deepens, not only is the number of skill points insufficient, but it's also becoming less and less adequate," Gu Chen lanted. The stronger his cultivation beca, the greater his demand for skill points.

The idea of using himself as bait to lure the warriors of the demonic cults re-erged in Gu Chen's mind.

At present, his only concern was the reliability of the glove hidden deep within his flesh; hence, Gu Chen still needed to contemplate deeply before making a decision.

Gu Chen didn't feel that possessing this malevolent weapon ant he could dominate the world, for the true strength of the Six Union God Sect, as well as the six great sacred lands, was not known to outsiders.

No one knew the cards held by the six experts from the sacred lands who had descended from their mountains, and Lin Bai was no exception.

Gu Chen speculated that perhaps they also had high-grade divine weapons in their possession.

He could not be sure that the malevolent weapon he owned was definitely more powerful than a high-grade divine weapon.

Moreover, compared to people like Lin Bai, Gu Chen's cultivation was still at a disadvantage.

"It's ti to go back."

After completing the breakthrough, Gu Chen imdiately got up and left, preparing to return to Yan Territory.

Having been away from Yan Territory for a while, his uncle Gu Chengfeng's family was still there, and Gu Chen planned to go back to check on them to ease their worries.

Upon erging from seclusion, and on his way back to Yan Territory, he heard a lot of rumors about his confrontation with the six great sacred lands and the disappearance of an innate realm elder from the Arsenal.

Particularly, the disappearance of the Arsenal's innate realm elder was hard to conceal, as those in the innate realm were revered as grandmasters of martial arts by the countless warriors across the nine provinces.

Moreover, the desperate search by both the Arsenal and the Mysterious Pill Workshop also leaked this information.

It was said that the head of the Arsenal was furious, harshly reprimanding the young master Xu Qing, ordering him to spare no expense to find Uncle Gong, alive or dead.

A grandmaster of martial arts of the innate realm couldn't just disappear without reason; sothing must have happened.

To this, Gu Chen simply smiled without comnt. He concealed his tracks well and silently returned to Yan Territory.

"Eldest son, you're finally back!" Seeing Gu Chen return safely to Lord Marquis's mansion, Gu Chengfeng's family could finally relax from their tension.

Although Yan Territory was located on the edge of East Province, and could be considered detached from world affairs, the news from East Province was too tumultuous, as it involved the six great sacred lands and a grandmaster of the innate realm, and it still reached them.

Even recently, many warriors had co to Yan Territory to find out what had happened, sent by Xu Qing, to see if Gu Chen was still alive.

Upon hearing this, a cold light flickered in Gu Chen's eyes. Fortunately, he had given prior notice to the Jing Tian Departnt in East Province. The Jing Tian Departnt had warriors stationed in Yan Territory, constantly guarding the safety of his uncle Gu Chengfeng's family.

Gu Chen had already decided that in so ti, he would send his uncle's family to the Jing Tian Departnt in East Province. There, Gu Chengfeng's family's safety would not have to be a concern, especially with the presence of the East Province Protector.

On the third day after Gu Chen's return to Yan Territory, an unexpected visitor appeared in Yan Territory, presenting himself in front of Lord Marquis's mansion.

At this ti, the butler Ma An ca to find Gu Chen and said in a low voice, "Lord Marquis, there is a Taoist claiming to be Xuan Yuan who wishes to see you."

"Xuan Yuan?"

Gu Chen's expression froze. That na was not unfamiliar to him; he certainly knew that Xuan Yuan was the young Taoist from the Vault of Sky Sword Sect on the summit of Mirror Lake Mountain that day.

"Why would an emissary of the sacred land seek out?" Gu Chen knitted his brows but still instructed, "Please invite him in."

"Yes."

Noting Gu Chen's cautious deanor, the butler Ma An hurriedly nodded, personally going to the mansion gate to welco Xuan Yuan, adorned in his Yin-Yang Daoist robe and wielding a Duster, into the mansion's grand entrance.

Soon, in the mansion's main hall, Gu Chen t Xuan Yuan.

"Taoist master, we et again." Upon seeing Xuan Yuan, Gu Chen imdiately stood up and greeted him with a smile and a clasped fist.

Compared to Chen Luo from the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, the Unfettered Daoist Xuan Yuan did not harbor much animosity towards Gu Chen. In fact, he was the one who had called a halt to the battle that day.

Otherwise, Xu Qing of the Arsenal, as well as Yuan Zixun of the Mysterious Pill Workshop, would likely have taken action against Gu Chen without exception.

Therefore, although Gu Chen did not have a favorable opinion of the six great sacred lands, he still had a positive impression of Xuan Yuan.

Upon seeing Gu Chen, Xuan Yuan also nodded slightly in response.

"Please take a seat, Taoist master," said Gu Chen, as he poured a cup of tea for Xuan Yuan with his own hands.

Xuan Yuan sat calmly, holding his Duster, and after a long gaze at Gu Chen, spoke, "Would you be willing to join my Unfettered Daoist Sect?"

Gu Chen was taken aback at the words, as he had never imagined that Xuan Yuan would co today for this reason.

Seeing Gu Chen stunned, Xuan Yuan continued, "I need not elaborate on how extraordinary the six great sacred lands are in the nine provinces. I think you should be aware. This ti, I have approached you simply because you possess exceptional talent. If you stay in the nine provinces, it will be difficult to achieve great success, and moreover, there is a high probability of facing mortal danger."

"Why is that?" Gu Chen frowned, asking with confusion.
