"General District Master Gu, please follow this way."
Jin Haifeng led the way with caution, quickly bringing him into a special palace.
Several staff mbers were waiting there, trembling with trepidation.
Clearly, they too were aware of the scene of Gu Jinlai descending from the sky just now.
Under the bustling activity of several staff mbers, a jade token resembling a Qiankun Talisman was being slowly crafted.
anwhile, Jin Haifeng brought him to a dimly lit palace.
The palace stretched three or four dozen ters in every direction, but it seed incredibly empty, with only an operation console and a huge spherical device in the very center.
This device was sowhat similar to the Blue Star Instrunt that Gu Jinlai had seen on Blue Star, but it was over three ters in diater.
At present, the instrunt was slowly rotating, its surface aglow with radiant light, intermittently flashing images.
"General District Master Gu, did you record the process of slaying devils with a Video Stone? If you place your Video Stone inside, the Heavenly Light Instrunt will automatically analyze the images, capture them, and calculate your exact Contribution Value," Jin Haifeng explained.
"Automatically analyze and capture images to calculate values?" Gu Jinlai looked sowhat astonished.
This instrunt...
Jin Haifeng, as if worried that Gu Jinlai didn’t trust the Heavenly Light Instrunt, hurriedly added, "Please rest assured, the Heavenly Light Instrunt is a special device designed and refined by Vice Hall Master Chao Jiuyin of the Heavenly Master Hall for collection and calculation of such information. Even if several thousand or tens of thousands of devils appear in the sa image, it can accurately calculate them based on their features and convert them into Contribution Value, without a trace of error, and there will be no occurrences of undercounting or miscalculation."
"Chao Jiuyin."
With a flash of recognition, Gu Jinlai rembered the na.
No wonder the instrunt looked and functioned so familiar—it was designed and manufactured by Chao Jiuyin.
"Okay."
Gu Jinlai imdiately took out the Video Stone and handed it to Jin Haifeng.
Jin Haifeng quickly placed it into the device known as the Heavenly Light Instrunt.
As he activated the device, the rotation of the Heavenly Light Instrunt suddenly accelerated, the light emanating from its surface grew increasingly intense. Countless beams of light, like a holographic projection, shot forth, instantly enveloping the entire hall.
Everyone seed to be imrsed in a massive virtual projection.
Despite the rapidly changing projected images, it was clear that this was a battle between one person and a group of devils.
In the battle, bright, intense flashes of light erupted occasionally, crushing hordes of devils into dust with unstoppable force.
Even though these were just virtual projections, the visual impact of the intense light explosions still shook Jin Haifeng and the staff mbers of the Demon-slaying Hall, leaving them breathless.
Especially when the image of the first Giant Ape Demon Emperor, wielding overwhelming Demon Fla, was ruthlessly vanquished by him flashed by, even Jin Haifeng, a Refining God Immortal, couldn’t help but widen his eyes: "This is... this is..."
Just then, an oppressive aura rushed towards the Demon-slaying Hall from outside at high speed.
In an instant, it reached the outside of the hall.
"Gu Jinlai, you truly have great..."
With a low shout, the doors to the hall were pushed open.
The light from outside poured in, slightly illuminating the dim hall.
The figure bathed in light who stepped into the hall was none other than the supre ruler of the Demon-slaying Hall, one of the Four Great Giants of Wind and Rain City, Jin Fantian, a Peak Saint.
Accompanying him were several others, including the Top Devas who had previously obstructed Gu Jinlai.
However, even as they pushed open the hall doors and basked in the light, it could not overshadow the brilliance of the nuclear fusion energy displayed by the Heavenly Light Instrunt’s projections.
The grand and overwhelming visual impact of the light and shadow caused Jin Fantian, who was stepping inside, to pause.
His words stopped abruptly.
Then, it dawned on him.
The Heavenly Light Instrunt.
The Heavenly Light Instrunt was projecting images recorded by the Video Stone.
And according to what Vice Hall Master Jin Haiping said, Gu Jinlai seed to be converting recorded evidence of demon slaying into Contribution Value. Now, the identity of the individual in the images being released by the Heavenly Light Instrunt was becoming clear.
"Gu Jinlai!?" Jin Fantian’s eyes narrowed sharply as he saw the figure displayed on the screen.
The figure appearing in the image was indeed Gu Jinlai.
"Isn’t Hall Master Jin supposed to be overwhelmingly busy? What brings you here at this ti?" asked Gu Jinlai indifferently.
"I..."
Jin Fantian had received a ssage from City Lord Zhao Hua that Gu Jinlai had lost control and was indiscriminately searching through one force after another in the Outer City District, now even heading towards the Demon-slaying Hall with an unknown sche in mind.
Thus, he was instructed to first get to the Demon-slaying Hall and trap Gu Jinlai, then upon their arrival, to join hands and execute him on the spot.
But the images projected by the Heavenly Light Instrunt...
Completely disrupted his original plan.
What exactly is being played here!?
Gu Jinlai...
Is battling thousands and thousands of devils!?
And among these devils, there are even those of Demon King level!?
Although no Demon Emperors have appeared yet, judging by the power of the attacks shown when Gu Jinlai annihilated those Demon Kings and nurous devils...
They were almost not much inferior to the Top Divine Powers, right?
Gu Jinlai...
He actually possesses a ans of slaughter that rivals the Top Divine Powers!?
"By the way, Hall Master Jin, what were you about to say just now?" Gu Jinlai calmly inquired.
"I..."
Jin Fantian’s gaze remained fixed on the images continuously projected by the Heavenly Light Instrunt.
At this mont, what is being played is the sight of a Demon Emperor nad Fla Blade laughing uproariously, as he whirled up a fierce blaze, resembling a teor plumting down from the heavens.
From the montum unleashed when this Demon Emperor charged forward...
It was unmistakably a high-level Demon Emperor!
But the next second...
Terrible energy was released.
In the blazing high temperature, the body of this powerful Demon Emperor turned directly into char.
This terrifying thod...
Jin Fantian asked himself, he might have been able to kill a high-level Demon Emperor, but to do it with the ease and unstoppable montum of Gu Jinlai...
He couldn’t do it!
The strength of Gu Jinlai...
Was never what they had guessed it to be, at most equivalent to a Peak Martial Saint, which is the power of a Fourth Rank Saint?
He was a Peak Saint...
Yes!
He was comparable to a National Guardian Saint, a Sixth Rank powerhouse worthy of being ntioned in the sa breath as City Lord Zhao Hua!
With this thought, a trace of cold sweat suddenly overflowed from his forehead.
"I... I..."
Jin Fantian’s throat moved, he swallowed hard, and after several seconds, he finally continued, "I an, the Ancient Martial Saint really... really has great courage, to actually have the bravery to face tens of thousands of devils alone."
"Is that so?"
Gu Jinlai neither confird nor denied.
"Yes! Yes! That’s right! Ancient Martial Saint has such great courage, such powerful Divine Skills!"
Jin Fantian nodded repeatedly.
At the sa ti, he sneakily glanced at the continuing projection.
Even though Gu Jinlai’s aura seed to have diminished drastically in the projection...
He could tell at a glance that Gu Jinlai was definitely faking it.
His purpose...
Seed to be to annihilate more devils!?
So he deliberately feigned weakness, letting those Demon Emperors send more Demon Kings and devils to surround and kill him?
Too crafty, too cunning.
He had almost been fooled just now.
"Rumble!"
At this mont, from the end of the sky, a series of thunderous breaking the sky sounds were heard.
This was the sonic boom ford by soone flying at high speed and breaking through the air currents.
As the sound arrived, six powerful auras descended from the sky, overwhelming and imposing.
Among these six auras, three were unmistakably City Lord Zhao Hua, Army Commander Cao Wudao, and Dean Wu Tianya from the Martial Saint Institute.
The remaining three were slightly weaker...
They were precisely the Martial Saints Yue Qushan, Mu Changsheng, and Zong Yan, who happened to be at the City Lord Mansion at that ti.
"Good, it looks like we are not too late."
"It’s really true, you don’t take the road to heaven, yet you barge into the door to hell, Gu Jinlai..."
As the six arrived, leading City Lord Zhao Hua and Army Commander Cao Wudao both spoke simultaneously.
But Cao Wudao did not finish speaking, as Jin Fantian along with the activation of Divine Sense blocked his words and returned, "You’ve arrived just in ti, gentlen. The Ancient Martial Saint has made great contributions by slaying a large number of devils."
"Huh!?"
Zhao Hua, Cao Wudao, Wu Tianya, and others did not understand but still rapidly descended from the sky, landing outside the Great Hall where the Heavenly Light Instrunt was located.
And at this ti, the projection in the Heavenly Light Instrunt had finished playing the scenes of Gu Jinlai slaughtering the minor monsters and moved onto the scene of the Rhino Man Great Commander laughing as he crossed the Void, charging towards Gu Jinlai with the force of Mount Tai bearing down.
This action, this earth-shattering montum...
Made Zhao Hua, Cao Wudao, Wu Tianya, and others who had just landed change their expressions drastically.
"A top Demon Emperor!? This montum... it definitely reaches the level of a top Demon Emperor!?"
"Is this a projection from the Heavenly Light Instrunt using a Video Stone? Could it be that soone has killed a top Demon Emperor!? In our entire Wind and Rain City, the only one confident in slaying a top Demon Emperor is probably only the City Lord himself..."
"That is... Gu Jinlai!?"
Everyone looked at the figure that had been targeted by that top Demon Emperor...
Gu Jinlai!
The recorder of these scenes, was it actually Gu Jinlai!?
The next mont, the Great Sun spanned the sky.
The sight of everyone was completely filled with the dazzling radiance projected from the Heavenly Light Instrunt.
"This is!?"
Even though it was only a record through a Video Stone, which was less than one-tenth of being there in person, because they had the top Demon Emperor as a reference, Zhao Hua, Cao Wudao, Wu Tianya all still felt a trendous shock in their hearts.
And behind them, the three Martial Saints Mu Changsheng, Yue Qushan, and Zong Yan experienced a profound sense of horror.
They put themselves in place and thought it over, if they were in this energy of destruction, which seed as if the Great Sun spanned across the sky, their end...
Would only be annihilation.
"What Divine Skills is this!? What Divine Skills is this!?"
Zong Yan couldn’t help but cry out.
No one responded, including Jin Fantian.
Everyone, City Lord Zhao Hua, Army Commander Cao Wudao, Hall Master Jin Fantian, Dean Wu Tianya, watched without blinking as the last scene in the Video Stone was projected—thunder roared in unison, and the fourth Demon Emperor was torn to shreds under the resplendent heavenly might.
At this point, the projection abruptly ended.
