Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 623 457: Lu Chen in Jiuzhou, Truth of Coagulation Fi

```

Afterwards, Gu Chen left the Gu Mansion and ca to the Qintian Monitor.

Atop the Bagua Building, on the Star Gazing platform, the white-haired and bearded Tower Supervisor sat cross-legged, as he had done daily for over twenty years.

"Not bad."

Upon seeing Gu Chen, a smile appeared in the elderly eyes of the Tower Supervisor as he nodded slightly, expressing his approval of Gu Chen.

Clearly, the Tower Supervisor was very satisfied with Gu Chen's actions at Qi Yun Mountain and just as pleased with the speed of his growth.

Gu Chen bowed with his hands clasped in front, a gesture of respect he always held for the Tower Supervisor.

"There's one thing I've been wanting to ask the Tower Supervisor," Gu Chen said earnestly.

"You want to kill King Huai," the Tower Supervisor said calmly, revealing a shocking fact.

"Indeed," Gu Chen replied, his eyes filled with a chilly resolve as he nodded slowly.

All these events were orchestrated by King Huai, who also posed a continuous threat to his family.

Therefore, before Nine Provinces plunged into utter chaos, while he still had the power, Gu Chen wanted to kill King Huai to eliminate future troubles.

Otherwise, once the great calamity fully descended, Gu Chen felt he might no longer have the energy to deal with King Huai.

Gu Chen was never one to passively take hits without returning them. Since King Huai had made his move, Gu Chen naturally wouldn't continue to overlook it.

However, Gu Chen saw the Tower Supervisor shake his head at this mont, prompting him to furrow his brows. Could it be the Tower Supervisor wished to protect King Huai?

After all, regardless of how one looked at it, King Huai was the biological brother of the Emperor of Da Xia, sharing the sa mother. The Tower Supervisor and King Huai had known each other for many years, so it would be understandable for him to think this way.

The next mont, the Tower Supervisor spoke, "As of now, you are not his match."

Hearing this, Gu Chen's brow creased further; it ant that King Huai's strength was far beyond that of soone who had just entered the Coagulation Field realm.

Although the Tower Supervisor did not spell it out, Gu Chen understood that killing King Huai would have to wait until he officially set foot in the Coagulation Field realm.

Then, Gu Chen asked, "Tower Supervisor, there's another matter I wish to understand, how can one condense one's own 'domain'?"

Now, Gu Chen had reached the late stage of the Refining Spirit realm, and with sufficient feat value, it wouldn't take long before he achieved full mastery of the Refining Spirit realm. The Coagulation Field realm was not far from him.

But when it ca to condensing his own "domain," although Gu Chen had so concept of it from his exchange with the elder from Mount Tianzhu, he still had doubts.

"Spirit!" the Tower Supervisor declared.

"Spirit?" Gu Chen, upon hearing this, seed to gain so understanding. The "spirit" ntioned by the Tower Supervisor naturally referred to the spirit in essence, qi, and spirit, which ant his consciousness.

Sure enough, the Tower Supervisor continued slowly, "To condense a domain, the spirit is crucial. Only with a strong consciousness can you manipulate the forces of heaven and earth more easily and subtly, and thus, condense your own territory."

"When your domain is initially ford, it signifies the beginning of the Coagulation Field realm. At this level, the competition is not only the martial artist's personal strength but also the domain they have condensed. To put it more thoroughly, it is a competition of manipulating the forces of heaven and earth. The more profound the understanding, the stronger the domain because stronger manipulation of these forces naturally enhances the might of one's domain."

"Of course, the nature of the domain is closely related to personal cultivation. This aspect is encountered in the middle stage of the Coagulation Field realm. When you reach the middle stage, your domain will carry the attributes of the martial arts you've cultivated, increasing its power exponentially and allowing you to easily crush the rudintary domains ford in the early stages of Coagulation Field realm."

"As for the later stages and full mastery of the Coagulation Field realm, the contest is about the understanding of heaven and earth and the scope of control over their forces."

Following this, the Tower Supervisor provided a detailed introduction to Gu Chen on the early and middle stages of the Coagulation Field realm. As for the later stages and complete mastery, he only ntioned them briefly and did not go into detail.

In the eyes of the Tower Supervisor, even for soone like Gu Chen, reaching the later stages or full mastery of the Coagulation Field realm would not be easy.

Domains are not easily established, and the forces of heaven and earth are not easily manipulated, for after all, these are external powers, not inherent to oneself.

This realm requires more about sensing heaven and earth. However, as heaven and earth are increasingly in disrepair, becoming harder to comprehend, the number of warriors in the Coagulation Field realm has been declining.

If the rules of heaven and earth in Nine Provinces were intact, the number of martial artists in the Coagulation Field realm would certainly be greater, unlike the current scarcity.

It can be said that the Tower Supervisor provided very detailed explanations to help Gu Chen successfully form his domain, and from this, one could see that the Tower Supervisor was far more than just a beginner in the Coagulation Field realm.

Gu Chen surmised that the Tower Supervisor very likely had already reached full mastery of the Coagulation Field realm.

"The Tower Supervisor's strength is indeed imnse." Gu Chen inwardly exclaid, befitting the last guardian deity of Da Xia after the disappearance of the Emperor, the Grand Marshal of Jing Tian Departnt, and the Chief of Mingjing Departnt.

And with the guidance of the Tower Supervisor, Gu Chen gained a deeper understanding of the Coagulation Field realm. The Tower Supervisor even personally demonstrated the application of the heavenly earth forces for Gu Chen.

The Heavenly Earth Essence Qi is, in fact, one type of heavenly earth force. However, rely relying on the Heavenly Earth Essence Qi is not enough to condense a domain.

The reason the Tower Supervisor emphasized the importance of consciousness was that to manipulate various forces within heaven and earth, one needed to sense and manipulate them through consciousness.

The stronger the consciousness, the easier it is to sense the forces of heaven and earth and to understand and manipulate them.

"It seems that when I have enough feat value, I should deduce the Extre God Nerve and Refining Spirit Secret. By then, I should be able to obtain a set of Heavenly Martial Skills for the spirit." Gu Chen pondered.

With Heavenly Martial Skills, Gu Chen's consciousness would surely skyrocket. Then, with strong consciousness, he would be able to sense and master the forces of heaven and earth and condense a domain more easily.

```

Of course, one must not neglect the cultivation just like the physical body, for as the Tower Supervisor said, reaching the mid-stage of the Coagulation Field, the stronger the cultivation, the stronger the domain becos, and the two are intimately related.

And the physical body has always been Gu Chen's strength, possessing the potential to beco a saint through the body, it's only natural that Gu Chen wouldn't overlook it.

After discussing these matters, Gu Chen told the Tower Supervisor about the people from Wuji Dao Sect, Five Elents Sect, Cloud Heaven Palace, and Suru Buddhist Sect seeking him out, inviting him to join the holy lands and go to the higher world.

Upon hearing this, the Tower Supervisor nodded slightly, his aged yet penetrating eyes looked towards Gu Chen, and he slowly spoke, "The higher world is indeed a good place, more suitable for a monstrous talent like you than the Nine Provinces."

Gu Chen spoke frankly, "I am indeed very interested in the higher world, it's just a pity that now is not the ti to leave."

The Tower Supervisor asked, "Are you inquiring about what they said, the so-called forbidden inheritance left by the strongest being in the Nine Provinces?"

"Indeed." Gu Chen nodded and said, "Tower Supervisor, I want to know, is this matter true?"

Gu Chen was not so naive as to believe everything these talents from the higher world said; he ca here to seek confirmation from the Tower Supervisor and to prove the truth of the matter.

"The matter is true, that is indeed the purpose of those disciples from the major sects of the higher world descending to the lower world, they did not deceive you," the Tower Supervisor said softly.

"As expected!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen's brow arched, and after the descriptions given by Yuan Feng and others, he certainly aspired for the so-called strongest being's legacy, since reaching his current stage in martial cultivation, he certainly was not content with stopping here, eager to climb to the peak of martial arts.

And such a strong being's legacy, naturally Gu Chen would also aspire to it, or rather, any martial artist who knew of this news would basically be unable to resist this temptation.

"Do you desire this forbidden inheritance?" The Tower Supervisor's aged eyes shifted slightly, imdiately discerning Gu Chen's thoughts.

"Indeed."

Gu Chen admitted directly, there was no need to hide anything from the Tower Supervisor, nor was there any way to hide it, so it was better to be frank.

Seeing this, the Tower Supervisor shook his head slightly, "I advise you, for the ti being, it would be wise not to harbor this thought."

"Because this inheritance is underground, seeking it would cause harm to the Nine Provinces?" Gu Chen voiced his speculation.

The Tower Supervisor first nodded at his words, then shook his head, "You're right, but not entirely."

"Please enlighten , Tower Supervisor," Gu Chen bowed with a fist.

Having reached this point in the conversation, Gu Chen also understood quite a bit, and if the Tower Supervisor were to inform him further, it wouldn't be considered a divulgence of the heavens' secrets.

At that mont, the Tower Supervisor suddenly beca extrely serious, and as his deanor darkened, the atmosphere on the Star Gazing platform beca exceptionally somber; the very void seed as if it were about to solidify.

This was the first ti Gu Chen had seen the Tower Supervisor like this, and it took him by surprise. It seed that this so-called forbidden inheritance really was of utmost importance.

Just then, the Tower Supervisor said gravely, "There is indeed a legacy left by the strongest being in the Nine Provinces, and this inheritance is crucial to the Nine Provinces; no one should touch it."

"Because the result of doing so would be unbearable for anyone."

"Is it so serious?" Gu Chen was surprised, not expecting that the ergence of the inheritance would have such severe consequences.

But imdiately after, the next words of the Tower Supervisor made Gu Chen's color drastically change.

In that mont, the Tower Supervisor gazed at Gu Chen and said word by word, with a heavy voice, "The ergence of the inheritance heralds the sinking of the Nine Provinces."

"What?!" Hearing such words, Gu Chen was greatly shocked, his pupils constricting rapidly.

The ergence of the inheritance leading to the sinking of the Nine Provinces was sothing Gu Chen could never have imagined, resulting in such dire consequences.

It's no wonder the Tower Supervisor wanted Gu Chen to stop them.

"Does King Huai, as well as those exceptional talents from the higher world crossing the boundary, know about this?" Gu Chen frowned and asked.

"The exceptional talents from the higher world crossing the boundary know so and don't know others, only understanding the gist, but King Huai..." the Tower Supervisor began, then unusually fell silent for a mont before continuing, "He knows."

"King Huai knows?!"

At that mont, Gu Chen was both shocked and angered—shocked that King Huai had sohow learned of this secret, and angered that, knowing the ergence of the inheritance could cause a disaster like the sinking of the Nine Provinces, King Huai still intended to pursue it.

His actions were tantamount to sentencing the entire Nine Provinces to death!

The sinking of the Nine Provinces ant the ruin of the entire region, the annihilation of this world, no different from a cataclysm or a demonic eradication of the world, both of the sa nature!

At that ti, every living being in the Nine Provinces would perish; to describe it as rivers of blood would not be enough, it would be an utterly tragic scene, as devastating as the end of the world, and just the thought was terrifying.

Neither of these outcos was sothing Gu Chen, the Tower Supervisor, or many others could accept!

"King Huai's actions, how are they any different from the demonic cults?!"

In that mont, Gu Chen's intent to kill King Huai suddenly surged by more than several folds.
