Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 656 477: The Two Saint Messengers1

Yangzhou, located in the southern region of the Nine Provinces, boasts picturesque landscapes accompanied by mountains and rivers, offering a pleasant climate.

In all the land, the scenery of Yangzhou can undoubtedly be ranked within the top three, no matter the season, its weather is always warm and comfortable. Even during the previous heaven and earth anomaly, its climate was far better than that of other major provinces.

It can be said that Yangzhou is a rare feng shui treasure in the world.

And within a vast mountain range just outside the city of Guangling Mansion in Yangzhou lies a huge underground palace, stretching as far as the eye can see, quite spectacular.

This place is the current headquarters of the Six Union God Sect, as well as the retreat for those two great Saints and the ruler of the Six Union God Sect, that legendary figure from over three hundred years ago, Dugu Yun!

At this mont, in a sowhat dim cavern within the underground palace, stand two figures.

One of them, thin and tall with well-defined features, wore a long black robe and exuded a refined aura, as if he embodied a world unto himself.

The other, of dium build with loose black hair, also wore a black robe but had half his face covered with an iron mask, obscuring his full visage from view.

Especially the half of his face hidden behind the iron mask, where one eye was deep and pitch-black as the abyss, seemingly able to devour everything, giving those who looked a chilling sensation.

These two are the two great Saints of the Six Union God Sect, well-known throughout the world!

Furthermore, even three hundred years ago, these two individuals held enormous prestige in Jianghu and all across the Nine Provinces, second only to the leader of the sect, Dugu Yun!

Yes, the two Saints of the Six Union God Sect, much like Gu Mu, the Ghost of the Heavens, and You Feng from the Four Great Law Kings, have survived from over three hundred years ago to the present.

At this ti, the first person, the thin middle-aged man, spoke, "The second heavenly anomaly has started. I can feel that creatures comparable to the Coagulation Field realm have descended upon the Nine Provinces."

This individual is the Left Envoy of the sect, nad Yang Nian, who over three hundred years ago was known as the Red Lotus Saint Envoy. He practiced the Six Union God Sect's Heavenly Grade Cultivation Skill "Red Lotus Demon Skill," possessing terrifying power and once unleashed a reign of terror across the Nine Provinces.

"Isn't this a good start?" said Fan Yi, his voice deep and low.

He was the Right Envoy of the sect, and like Yang Nian, he held vast prestige over three hundred years ago, known as the Purgatory Saint Envoy. He also practiced a Heavenly Grade Cultivation Skill of the Six Union God Sect, called "Purgatory Demon Scripture," and his power was equal to that of Yang Nian. Once the two Saints joined hands, there were almost no adversaries for them in the world at that ti.

Back then, even without the sect leader Dugu Yun, just relying on the Saints Yang Nian and Fan Yi, it can be said that they could suppress most of the Nine Provinces.

Anyone witnessing these two alive and well at this place would undoubtedly be greatly surprised, for over three hundred years ago, it was clearly stated that they had died.

The reason behind their survival was known only to themselves and the sect leader Dugu Yun.

In this cavern, not far from the Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian and the Purgatory Saint Envoy Fan Yi, was a huge blood pool, with vivid blood roiling within. Waves of nauseating, pungent, and overbearing scents of blood continually emanated from the pool, filling the entire area.

The thought of how many people must have been killed to form such a massive pool from the blood of warriors or ordinary citizens was truly unimaginable.

And within this colossal blood pool, densely packed, were countless demonic spirits settled in silence, numbering in the hundreds upon a cursory glance!

"Truly an exhilarating scent," the Right Envoy of the sect, Fan Yi, comnted as he flared his nostrils, taking in the overpowering stench of blood at this location, his half-exposed face revealing a hint of a cold smile.

But then, the Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian suddenly said, "Gu Mu and the other three are dead, and the demonic spirits within them as well."

"Hmph, I always said, they're nothing but trash!" the Purgatory Saint Envoy Fan Yi frowned, clearly very dissatisfied with Gu Mu and the other Four Great Law Kings.

Furthermore, this Right Envoy of the sect continued to berate, "It's not just Gu Mu and the lot. The Refining Moon Demon Sect, the Red Fla Demon Sect, the Great Dark Sky faction, and those law-enforcing elders—all of them, without exception, are worthless, not fit for serious use. They couldn't even deal with a young man in his early twenties—if they're dead, they deserved it!"

Clearly, though the two Saints had been in seclusion here, they were very aware of the rumors outside, various news, and the situation with Gu Chen; their retreat didn't an they were ignorant of the world.

The Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian nodded slightly in agreent upon hearing this, sharing the Purgatory Saint Envoy Fan Yi's disdain for the individuals ntioned.

"They truly are not fit for serious use, but that young man nad Gu Chen really is sowhat extraordinary," the Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian said. "Even if we go back over three hundred years, in our era, he would have been a figure to reckon with."

"Hmph," the Purgatory Saint Envoy Fan Yi snorted, "A figure? Just a junior. In a land without a tiger, a monkey could be king. He's nothing but a clown jumping on the stage. Back then, under the might of our sect, who dared to act so impudently? If I had t this child at that ti, I would have surely slapped him dead with one hand!"

The Purgatory Saint Envoy Fan Yi was a mass murderer over three hundred years ago, extrely bloodthirsty, exceeding even the Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian in this regard.

Yang Nian said nothing in response to these words. Although coarse, Fan Yi's words were not without reason. Neither three hundred years ago nor now would Gu Chen be a match for the two of them.

However, had it been over three hundred years ago, during the Six Union God Sect's most flourishing period, aside from the Six Great Holy Lands, indeed no one would have dared to act so recklessly against them. Even the great powers of Da Xia and the barbarian tribes had to act cautiously, fearing to provoke the Six Union God Sect and risk annihilation.

That was the deterrence of the Six Union God Sect over three hundred years ago in the Nine Provinces, spanning the entire world. Had not Dugu Yun provoked the Six Great Holy Lands into fury, the Six Union God Sect could have united the world under its rule.

"Thankfully, as long as these exist, it matters not how many of our sect die. The Six Great Demon Sects? Heh, it won't be long before we can create an entirely new set of Six Great Demon Sects." The Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian looked at the myriad of demonic spirits in the blood pool before him and said with a faint smile.

However, since both individuals had a sowhat shadowy presence, even their smiles seed chilling, devoid of any warmth.

"When the brand-new six demon sects and the four great law kings erge, surely everyone under heaven and that man nad Gu Chen will be taken by surprise, right?" Fan Yi, the Envoy of Purgatory, also revealed a forbidding smile.

"As ti goes by, it won't be long before this world, this Nine Provinces, will ultimately be ours. Once we devour all the living beings in the Nine Provinces, we should be able to break through our bottlenecks and reach a whole new realm."

At that thought, a fiery gleam flashed across the pupils of Fan Yi, the Envoy of Purgatory, as he said, "Especially that Gu Chen, I can confirm that devouring him will definitely bring trendous benefits."

Yang Nian, the Red Lotus Saint Envoy, responded with a faint smile, noncommittal. The truth was, the people Gu Chen had killed ant next to nothing to the Six Union God Sect.

As long as demons existed, creating powerful beings was not too difficult for them.

Moreover, as ti pressed on and more powerful demons descended, even the six sacred lands would be at a loss against the Six Union God Sect and could only watch helplessly as they were annihilated.

One day, endless demons will descend upon the Nine Provinces and completely devour this world. This is not rely talk.

This is an unstoppable tide, and no one can hinder it, otherwise, those people who have co down from the upper realms' great sects and holy lands wouldn't be in such a hurry.

Because they are well aware of the fate of the Nine Provinces, they wish to take the eternal legacy back to the upper realms before the Nine Provinces are utterly destroyed.

Apart from the six sacred lands capable of ascending to the upper realm, all living beings in the Nine Provinces will inevitably face death.

This is also why Yang Nian and Fan Yi were not too angered upon learning about Gu Chen's deeds.

Because no matter how many people Gu Chen killed, it was aningless to them and would not change the ultimate outco.

At this mont, Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian and the Envoy of Purgatory Fan Yi, who had been relaxed until now, suddenly changed their expressions as if sensing sothing terrifying.

In the next instant, swoosh, both of them left the place at the sa ti and appeared in the main hall.

At the far end of the spacious hall stood a throne, a symbol of supre authority within the Six Union God Sect.

And at that mont, upon the throne, which should have been empty, there unexpectedly appeared a figure, seated there.

Seeing this figure, Yang Nian and Fan Yi were first startled, and then joy spread across their faces. Without a word, they knelt down and prostrated themselves on the ground.

Considering the entire Six Union God Sect, only one man could elicit such veneration from the two esteed envoys who were second to none but him!

Indeed, the figure on the throne was none other than the legendary figure from over three hundred years ago, the demon lord whose might shook the heavens and nearly led the Six Union God Sect to dominate the world—Dugu Yun!

"We pay our respects to the Sect Leader, congratulations on your ergence from seclusion!" Yang Nian, the Red Lotus Saint Envoy, and Fan Yi, the Envoy of Purgatory, called out in unison at this mont.

On the throne sat Dugu Yun, and though he was a demon sect leader, his appearance was not ferocious, and his face did not bear intense murderous intent.

On the contrary, the legend whose demonic might was known throughout the world, the demon sect leader Dugu Yun, turned out to be a refined, handso middle-aged man in a green shirt.

It was indeed difficult to imagine that the leader of the Six Union God Sect, Dugu Yun, would be such a man.

Dugu Yun had handso features and a radiant appearance, donned in a green gown with jet-black hair, except for the white streaks at his temples that hinted at his significant age.

His eyes held the weight of eons, as if they had seen all the vicissitudes of life. When his gaze fell upon the kneeling Yang Nian and Fan Yi, these two mighty envoys involuntarily shuddered.

In the presence of the demon sect leader Dugu Yun, Yang Nian and Fan Yi felt the primal suppression of life, emanating from within their blood and souls. Thus, even with Dugu Yun's expressionless face, he appeared formidable in their eyes.

Just being before the demon sect leader, Yang Nian and Fan Yi felt an incomparable pressure, and the shivering of their bodies was instinctual, beyond their control.

"Are they all dead?"

At that mont, from the throne high above in the empty hall, a symbol of ultimate authority, there ca an indifferent voice.

Furthermore, this voice carried a slight echo, as if two people were speaking at once, which sounded sowhat eerie.

The words had barely left his mouth when the Red Lotus Saint Envoy Yang Nian and the Envoy of Purgatory Fan Yi began to tremble uncontrollably, even though Dugu Yun showed no movents or expressions.

Sweating profusely at this mont, Yang Nian stuttered, "Sect... Sect Leader, it is our incompetence, please... please forgive us..."

"We beg for the Sect Leader's forgiveness!" Fan Yi, with his head against the ground, was full of terror and no longer displayed his earlier arrogance and nonchalance.
