Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 1481 - 347: Dominating the Spotlight_2

For a time, the atmosphere in this place immediately became tense and subtle.

Lu Yu, being a half-step strongest, although he prided himself on his profound strength, he was also very cautious. His gaze swept around, noticing two figures in the crowd who were hiding just like him.

"Cannot be careless, Nine Mystical Immortal Lights are exceptional and peerless, I must seize them. Perhaps they could help me advance further, even make a direct breakthrough!" Lu Yu’s eyes burned with passion.

As for Gu Chen, he was completely dismissed from his mind, just an insignificant younger generation, nowhere near as important as the opportunity to breakthrough that the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights could provide.

Boom!

A more majestic fluctuation was released, the nine kinds of light from the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights filled the heavens and the earth, sacred and transcendental. Indistinctly, worlds formed and perished one by one, expounding the ultimate truths of the universe, the mysteries of the laws.

Seeing this, the colossal figures of the Ascension Realm, including the three half-step strongest people like Lu Yu, became even more desirous. Their gazes were as if they were looking at a rare treasure.

And indeed, it was so, the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights deserved this title, such a miraculous thing rarely appeared once in an age.

Gu Chen’s eyes were also deep and bright, staring intently at the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights. If he could obtain them, he would surely be able to break through to the later stages of the Ascension Realm.

This was equally important to him!

"It’s time to clear the field." At this moment, a voice sounded, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice to find that it was Lu Yu from Lan Yue Lake, who was a half-step strongest.

At this moment, his gaze was on Gu Chen, carrying an intense coldness.

"It is indeed time to clear the field." Gu Chen nodded, there was still some time before the appearance of the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights, enough for him.

His face-off with Lu Yu also drew the attention of many Ascension Realm titans.

Mostly because of Lu Yu’s status.

"It’s over, this young junior is going to suffer."

"What’s wrong with suffering a setback? Haven’t we all experienced all kinds of things as we got to where we are now? It’s not good for young people to be too smooth-sailing either. They need to suffer setbacks to grow. Next time they face us seniors, they will know to be respectful."

"Setbacks are blessings, after all, he won’t die. The strongest must have left him a way out so he can escape at the end."

The Ascension Realm titans communicated with each other through thought transmission, they were unanimous in their opinion, all not optimistic about Gu Chen.

Boom!

Right then, Lu Yu made his move. His expression was indifferent, as he stretched out a finger which rapidly enlarged, pressing down like a mountain.

This move also showed how much he underestimated Gu Chen, otherwise he would not have done so.

But Gu Chen remained calm. To him, this was the opportunity his opponent had given him, and of course, he would seize it.

"If you seek death yourself, you really can’t blame anyone else," Gu Chen shook his head and directly struck.

Crack!

The next moment, a loud bang sounded, accompanied by blood splattering. Lu Yu screamed in agony as his expression changed dramatically. The finger he had stretched out was directly broken by Gu Chen!

"Hiss, what just happened?!" The Ascension Realm titans were stunned, feeling as if they were in a dream.

The two half-step strongest hidden in the crowd also concentrated their gaze in an instant.

Swoosh!

After gaining the upper hand, Gu Chen would naturally not give his opponent the chance to counterattack. He stepped forward, his figure vanished, covering hundreds of yards in an instant to appear before Lu Yu.

Lu Yu’s pupils dilated, his face filled with horror. Even he was a bit too slow to react to this speed. In a desperate attempt, he tried to make a move.

Bang!

But Gu Chen was quicker; he struck out with a palm strike that intimately connected with Lu Yu’s crown, sending blood splattering in all directions. At the same time, the head of Lan Yue Lake’s half-step champion was driven into his chest cavity.

"Not dead yet." Gu Chen frowned slightly, very aware of the strength of his palm strike. But a half-step champion was no pushover, enduring the blow just like Jin Hong did that day.

"It’s because of that moon." Gu Chen quickly discerned the truth, turning his eyes to behind Lu Yu.

That moon embodied the essence of his very being.

Hiss!

In the next moment, a brilliant moonlight shot forth, piercing the void and striking at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen dodged with a flash, easily sidestepping the moonlight that struck an adjacent subsidiary world, completely obliterating it.

The immense power made many of the heavyweight figures around gasp in shock.

It was during this window of opportunity that Lu Yu’s head squeezed out from his chest cavity, returning to normal.

"I will kill you!" He erupted in rage, unable to bear the humiliation of being treated thusly by a younger junior before all these eyes. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

With a thunderous rumble, myriad rays of light burst from the moon behind Lu Yu, releasing a circular beam of light that swept across heaven and earth, obliterating everything in its path, leaving nothing behind.

"Great Power of the Fourth Rank?" Gu Chen’s eyes flickered, still opting not to engage head-on.

Even though Lu Yu locked onto him, Gu Chen instantly broke free, causing the attack to miss as expected.

"Damn it!" Lu Yu’s face contorted in rage, furiously searching for Gu Chen’s figure.

Thump!

Suddenly, a colossal force struck from behind him. Gu Chen struck, sending Lu Yu flying, with most of his body torn asunder.

Buzz!

Just as Gu Chen was about to pursue, the shattered world nearby released the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights, flashing with nine different glows, rushing into the mundane world.

Swish!

Two half-step champions who had been hiding in the crowd reacted quickly, immediately making a move to seize the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights.

Gu Chen’s brows knit together; he did not continue to deal with Lu Yu and instead blurred into action, arriving close to the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights as they were about to escape, feeling a sense of clarity in both body and mind under their illumination.

"This is of great importance!" A sudden realization formed in Gu Chen’s heart; he had to acquire the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights.

Seeing Gu Chen appear, closer than they were, the two hidden half-step champions were startled and without hesitation, they launched their attacks.

Two loud explosions rang out, the energy bursting and the magical power overwhelming. Gu Chen clashed with the two men simultaneously.

"Thanks for that!"

Using that force, Gu Chen accelerated even faster, vanishing in a flash to appear near the fleeing Nine Mystical Immortal Lights.

Buzz!

The power of the spatial dimension from the cosmos filled the air. Despite the exceptional nature of the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights, they were ultimately just a rare treasure. With no ability to cultivate and possessing only innate intelligence, they couldn’t escape the control of a half-step Dao weapon and were imprisoned there.

Thus, with a wave of his sleeve, Gu Chen collected the Nine Mystical Immortal Lights and then, in a swift moment, vanished from that place, leaving behind a crowd with stunned expressions.

"Roar!"

In the next instant, Lu Yu came to his senses. His face twisted in a massive roar, his anger reaching its peak, almost as if his fury could Ascend to Heaven and burn through the nine layers of the skies!
