Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start Chapter 741 528 Half-step Divine Intention1

Soon, Da Yuan National Master Bastu arrived in Tiandu, pressing down on the entire city with a godlike presence. In front of everyone's eyes, he defeated the Tower Supervisor of Qintian Monitor who had been guarding Da Xia for over twenty years, and Qin Wu, the previous Sumr Emperor's appointed Deputy Commander of Jing Tian Departnt, injuring them severely. The news spread throughout the world.

In an instant, the reputation of Da Yuan National Master Bastu was unparalleled in the land of Jiuzhou, surpassing everyone else; even the holy places took notice.

There was a growing sense that he was on track to beco the number one in the world. Furthermore, with Da Yuan continuously building montum, the calls for Bastu and his might grew more and more intense.

It goes without saying that the citizens of Da Yuan cheered for Bastu. One by one, they were ecstatic, because Bastu was the first martial artist in Da Yuan's history to achieve the Divine Intent Realm.

For many years, Da Yuan was always suppressed by Da Xia, or rather, the people of Da Yuan were always one step behind the Central Plains, and were at a constant disadvantage from beginning to end.

In the tens of thousands of years of Jiuzhou history, all the martial artists who reached the Divine Intent Realm were from the Central Plains. But this ti, it was finally Da Yuan's turn, which naturally gave cause for proud exhalation. No wonder the people of Da Yuan were so stimulated.

By all accounts, Bastu had indeed created a precedent. He could truly be called the foremost person in the martial path of Da Yuan, a point that was indisputable.

Now, the whole of Da Yuan was crazy over Bastu alone. His status was matchless, surpassing everything, nearly on par with the founding emperor of Da Yuan.

As for Da Xia, in this period, everyone had a worried expression on their faces, especially after hearing that Bastu had appeared in Tiandu and Gu Chen had still not shown up, causing many to feel a sense of disappointnt in their hearts.

Because they knew that this also represented Gu Chen's attitude: he might not appear for this battle.

Many people understood this, as it was natural not to want to participate in a battle where one was certain to die.

However, when they heard that Bastu said if Gu Chen did not appear, he would massacre Tiandu, many people across the world were shocked by the ruthlessness of the Da Yuan National Master.

That was millions of people – to say to kill them was to kill them, causing many to worry about the future.

Because they all knew that Da Yuan was establishing its power and had already started to consider the aftermath of the unification of the two countries.

And by then, their fate would certainly not be good.

Many martial sects in the Jianghu panicked, quite a few of which started to pledge allegiance to Da Yuan covertly or even openly.

In an instant, the world was imnsely chaotic, with people throughout Da Xia's territory in disarray.

Without having waged war yet, Da Xia had already lost the people's hearts and the montum, with the morale of the army continuing to plumt.

After all, everyone knew that this was a war destined for failure. The annihilation of Da Xia by Da Yuan seed practically set in stone, now beyond any chance of alteration.

The Yao Platform Sect, Canghai Sect, and so other sects friendly with Gu Chen were also in a similar situation at this ti.

And Gu Chen had not yet appeared. Under the influence of so of Da Yuan's covert operatives, so unfavorable rumors began to surface.

So said Gu Chen was avoiding battle; others claid that Gu Chen's previous fights were just for show and that the Tower Supervisor had always been backing him up.

So even went as far as to say that everything Gu Chen had achieved thus far was thanks to the great support of Da Xia's Tower Supervisor and that all the enemies he had faced were within the Supervisor's control. But now that the Da Yuan National Master had broken through to the Divine Intent Realm, Gu Chen was terrified and abandoned millions of Tiandu's citizens to flee for his own life.

Various kinds of negative comnts targeting Gu Chen began to spread all over the world. Originally, many people did not believe them, but since Gu Chen failed to show up, indeed, a portion of the populace started to believe these rumors.

At that mont, in the territory of Tianzhou, at the base of the Vault of Heaven Sword Sect, they too had received this news. Although sowhat surprised that Jiuzhou now had another martial artist in the Divine Intent Realm, upon seeing the challenge that was being spread all over the world, the Sect Leader of the Vault of Heaven Sword Sect let out a cold laugh, believing that Gu Chen was as good as dead this ti.

The other five holy places also had their share of cold laughs and sighs.

anwhile, in the Da Yuan imperial palace, Toumuer listened to the reports of his subordinates and nodded in satisfaction.

The current rumors around the world were naturally spread by people he had sent out, beginning their implentation on the day Bastu returned.

"The effect is quite good, haha, now I refuse to believe that Gu Chen will not be willing to make an appearance!" Toumuer sneered. He was truly unwilling to let go without killing Gu Chen.

Gu Chen's talent was incredibly high, unprecedentedly so, appearing dreamlike, instilling unbearable fear in Emperor Toumuer of Da Yuan.

Therefore, only by having Bastu kill Gu Chen thoroughly could he truly be at peace.

In this period, Gu Chen had beco a nightmare for Toumuer. Every day Gu Chen lived was another day of fear for him.

"Gu Chen, I must ensure you die completely, relieving myself and Da Yuan of any future worries!" Toumuer said with a fierce expression.

Those restless nights filled with dread and sleeplessness were monts Toumuer no longer wished to rember or experience.

"It won't be long now, soon, very soon you will be dead." The Emperor of Da Yuan watched as the ti drew closer and kept muttering to himself.

It was clear that the existence of Gu Chen had brought him imnse pressure, driving Emperor Toumuer of Da Yuan to near madness.

"From now on, this Jiuzhou will be my era!" In the empty imperial palace, only the wild laughter of Emperor Toumuer of Da Yuan could be heard.
