Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 511 511: 385

After Lin Bai had blood his last radiance, he vanished into thin air, leaving behind only a deep and translucent soul crystal, which Gu Chen tucked into his pouch.

Having slain Lin Bai, Gu Chen approached the one-eyed elder who had been nailed to the ground by him earlier.

At this mont, the Law Elder from the Six Union God Sect was still struggling, his mouth full of blood froth. He had a ferocious expression, his body emanated black mist, and continuous screams could be heard.

Although he was unable to free himself from the constraints of the top-grade divine weapon, the demonic power within him constantly aided in healing his injuries, amounting to an excruciating torture.

He could not even find death, trapped in an endless cycle of destruction and regeneration, suffering to the extre.

"Kill... kill ..." The one-eyed elder's mouth overflowed with blood, his speech was unclear.

Pfft!

Gu Chen pulled out his fiery-red spear, and imdiately, a jet of blood spurted three feet high into the air.

At the sa ti, in just an instant, the one-eyed elder's wounds swiftly healed.

"Go to hell—" At that mont, a fierce light shone in the one-eyed elder's pupils, and at a close distance, his dark, cold fingers lunged at Gu Chen's chest.

Clang!

The next mont, a scream ca from the one-eyed elder's mouth. Given Gu Chen's extraordinary physique, coupled with the Youtie Battle Suit he wore inside, how could the elder harm him?

Crack crack crack...

The grating sound of bones breaking rang out as Gu Chen snapped the one-eyed elder's fingers one by one. He harbored no sympathy for such a person.

"Don't kill , don't kill , I can be an undercover agent, help you gather information about the sect." Seeing that Gu Chen was about to finish him off, the one-eyed elder hurriedly spewed a stream of words to prove his usefulness to Gu Chen.

"Why should I believe you?" Gu Chen countered.

"This..." The one-eyed elder hesitated, but having reached this point, having rged with a demonic spirit and not wishing to die easily, he realized that subjugation ant little to him. Gu Chen was rely a passerby in the span of his long life, soone who would eventually grow old.

Moreover, once Dugu Yun, the Sect Leader of the Six Union God Sect, erged from seclusion, the one-eyed elder did not think Gu Chen would survive.

Therefore, he hastily said, "Lord Gu, whatever you want to do, I can swear an oath or you can create so leverage over ."

Gu Chen spoke indifferently, "I need to ascertain your loyalty first."

"No problem." The one-eyed elder nodded, seeming to fear Gu Chen would change his mind.

Gu Chen solemnly said, "I ask you, to what realm has Dugu Yun, the Sect Leader of the Six Union God Sect, now reached?"

This was a crucial piece of information.

Upon hearing this, the one-eyed elder hesitated before answering, "I don't know. Currently, the Sect Leader, the two Saint Envoys, and the four Guardian Law Kings are all in seclusion. The sect's affairs are managed by us elders. We wouldn't have appeared here if not for the advent of a powerful demonic spirit."

Gu Chen's gaze was indifferent as he looked at the one-eyed elder. "It seems you don't cherish this opportunity," he said.

"Don't, Lord Gu, don't kill ." The one-eyed elder's face changed, and he quickly said, "I truly do not know. In fact, I have never even seen the Sect Leader, I just heard that he might have reached the Divine Intent Realm."

"Hmm? What did you say?!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen was shocked. Dugu Yun had reached the Divine Intent Realm? But how could that be possible?

"Don't lie to , how could there be a warrior of the Divine Intent Realm in Youzhou?" Gu Chen said with a serious deanor, applying pressure to the one-eyed elder.

The one-eyed elder replied, "The Sect Leader is different from us. It's said that he has rged with a high-level demonic spirit within him, which can help him break through his limitations. It's also the reason he survived in the hands of the six major sacred grounds all those years ago."

Gu Chen's eyebrows furrowed. He hadn't expected this kind of secret. A demonic spirit that could help a martial artist reach the Divine Intent Realm must be incredibly powerful.

Truth be told, Gu Chen was still skeptical. If Dugu Yun had truly beco a Divine Intent Realm warrior, Youzhou would have been united under him long ago. Why would he still be in seclusion?

Anticipating Gu Chen's thoughts, the one-eyed elder said, "The Sect Leader hasn't left seclusion because he encountered so difficulties in his cultivation. Besides, over three hundred years ago, he was already a great master of the Divine Intent Realm. With so many years gone by, relying on the demonic spirit within him, reaching the Divine Intent Realm is not impossible."

Gu Chen's heart grew cold upon hearing this, feeling that there was truth in these words.

Just then, a question surfaced in Gu Chen's mind, one he was most curious about. He looked at the one-eyed elder and asked, "Over three hundred years ago, the Six Union God Sect was shattered and so many died. How exactly did you recover your strength?"

This question had troubled Gu Chen for a long ti. He was extrely eager to know how the Six Union God Sect, which had been destroyed for so many years and even if hidden in shadows, could not have built up such a formidable strength.

There must be a significant mystery behind it.

After hesitating for a mont, the one-eyed elder said, "Whether it's the Sect Leader, the Saint Envoys, or the Law Kings, they all have fused with high-level demonic spirits within them. It's precisely because of this that they possess such formidable strength; their internal demonic spirits helped them."

"I see!"

Gu Chen was startled. It was indeed the demonic spirits that gave them the strength to survive for such a long ti.

However, another question arose. Gu Chen knit his brows and said, "Three hundred years ago, demonic spirits had just appeared in Youzhou. How could there be such powerful ones arriving? Are you sure you're not deceiving ?"

As his words fell, Gu Chen's energy surged, preparing to execute the one-eyed elder.

"Impossible, every word I said is true; there is no falsehood." Seeing that Gu Chen was about to kill him, the one-eyed elder's face turned horrified.

But if Gu Chen asked him about the specifics, he didn't have a clear answer either, because he wasn't one of the elders from over three hundred years ago, but a newer addition to the Six Union God Sect.

Because of this, among the eight Law Enforcent Elders, he ranked last and was also the weakest.

According to the one-eyed elder, among the Law Enforcent Elders of the Six Union God Sect, there were several like him who were later absorbed into the sect. Only those who ranked higher were demon cult martial artists who had been hidden in the shadows all along.

Among the four Demon Kings, there was one who was also like this, soone of exceptional talent who did not rely on demons, but reached the realm of Communication with the Gods through his own cultivation.

He was the one who had once appeared in Tiandu—Xiao Yuntian, the Blood Demon!

It was precisely for this reason that Xiao Yuntian was the first to co out of seclusion; he had not fused with demons and relied entirely on himself.

Of course, as the one-eyed elder said, Dugu Yun had promised Xiao Yuntian that if there were a suitable demon, he would help him fuse with it imdiately.

Gu Chen asked the one-eyed elder many questions, to which the elder answered, even inquiring about the location of the main temple of the Six Union God Sect, but the one-eyed elder did not know.

Only at the level of a Demon King would one know where the real stronghold of the Six Union God Sect was located. The eight Law Enforcent Elders were dispersed in different locations, and they communicated through specific thods.

And it was exactly in these more than three hundred years that the Six Union God Sect had been developing in the shadows, gaining their current strength through the power of demons.

But one question remained unsolved—for what ans did Dugu Yun and the others use to fuse with high-level demons using their dying bodies over three hundred years ago?

And how did they discover the secret thod of rging with demons?

Moreover, according to the one-eyed elder's description, the weakest of these demons were of the Nether grade, even surpassing it. When demons first descended in the Nine Provinces over three hundred years ago, there were no demons that powerful.

At this mont, Gu Chen was suddenly startled; he realized that over three hundred years ago, when the Six Union God Sect had just been destroyed, it coincidentally was also the ti when the demons first invaded the Nine Provinces.

The tilines of these two events overlapped!

"There must be sothing that I don't know, sothing that hasn't been recorded in the books," Gu Chen said, his expression grave.

He knew that such secrets, even in the entire Nine Provinces, were known to only a few.

Among them, there must be a Qintian Monitor's Tower Supervisor, but even the Supervisor had his reservations; revealing too much of the heavenly secrets would surely invite divine punishnt.

"Do you know when people like Dugu Yun will co out of seclusion?" Gu Chen finally asked.

"I don't know," the one-eyed elder shook his head. Such secrets were completely beyond his knowledge.

After all, he was not actually a demon cult martial artist but had joined the Six Union God Sect later on. He couldn't be said to be truly loyal to the sect; it was only for the power of the demons that he had joined, which could be deduced from his current behavior.

But no matter how it was put, Gu Chen had learned many secrets about the demon cult today, enhancing his understanding of them significantly.

And the strength of the demon cult had also been clarified by Gu Chen. Their ability to do so was all because of the existence of demons.

Of course, Gu Chen also surmised that the reason why people like Dugu Yun had not co out of seclusion must be due to so complications arising from fusing with demons. Otherwise, they would not have been in seclusion for such a long ti.

One thing was for sure—Dugu Yun's strength was definitely terrifying. In the current Nine Provinces, not a single person could contend with him, not even the six great holy lands.

Actually, even earlier, Gu Chen vaguely sensed the six great holy lands' apprehension towards the Six Union God Sect. They must know sothing, and they completely ignored the cult's actions.

As long as it did not affect their interests, they would not care whether the Six Union God Sect was bringing calamity to the world.

This was the attitude of the high and mighty six great holy lands, which in Gu Chen's eyes was the epito of selfishness.

"Thank you. Without you, I truly would not have known so many secrets," Gu Chen said.

"It's no trouble, as long as it's useful to Lord Gu."

The one-eyed elder smiled, his hanging heart just beginning to relax when he saw Gu Chen's palm strike directly towards his chest.

"You dare to break your promise!" he coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood, his eyes filled with shock and anger as he looked at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen's expression was indifferent as he said, "Do you think you are worthy of talking about keeping promises?"

With a boom, the Great Day True Qi was released, turning into blazing flas, completely incinerating the one-eyed elder.

From the very beginning, Gu Chen had no intention of sparing the one-eyed elder. He also knew that the elder had not told him everything, and he had stayed cautious.

But what the elder had just shared was enough for Gu Chen.

Gu Chen absorbed all four Nether-grade demon soul crystals he had acquired, and the power points value on his panel imdiately surged again.

Seeing this, a slight smile also appeared on Gu Chen's face.

Afterwards, he left the place and returned to Youzhou City. As he approached the city, Gu Chen heard the sounds of shouting and killing, and the air was filled with the distinct cold breath of demons.

"Hmm?"

Gu Chen was startled, thinking that perhaps the demon cult had attacked the city in his absence. He promptly rushed towards the scene as fast as he could.

"Lord Gu, you have finally returned!"

At this mont, the governor of Youzhou was relieved to see Gu Chen return safely.

"What's going on here?"

Gu Chen asked as he observed the situation, not far from the city, nurous demons had appeared, and the Jing Tian Departnt's commander was in fierce battle with them.
