Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

```

The ancient heritage opened, and the token in Gu Chen's hands had also become unbearably hot at this moment, as if it was about to ignite.

Nowadays, Gu Chen had already met up with Lu Chang from the Jing Tian Department of the East Province, who happened to be lucky enough to have obtained a heritage token as well.

This token prepared by one of the mighty forces of the ancient era allowed those who possessed it to pass through the formation and enter into the ultimate heritage site.

Although the number of tokens was not great, exceeding ten, each token could bring a number of people into it with the holder.

In the deepest part of the mystical realm, blinding light burst forth, piercing the sky. After countless years, the treasure was finally about to reveal itself to the world!

As time passed, the ancient supreme force that established the formation had long since disappeared from the world, so this opportunity became quite a windfall for Gu Chen and the others.

"Quick, the greatest opportunity of the mystical realm has emerged!"

At this instant, without anyone needing to say a word, all the martial artists holding tokens rushed over.

Even some martial artists who did not have a token followed the crowd, hoping to fish in troubled waters.

"Let's go!"

Gu Chen also quickly led Lu Chang and several other commanders from the Jing Tian Department of the East Province towards the deepest part of the mystical realm.

As they drew closer, the already dense spiritual Qi within the mystical realm became even richer, with strands of it pouring into their mouths and noses with each breath.

The bodies of many martial artists faintly glowed as they continuously absorbed the spiritual Qi, refining their physiques.

Even without entering, this would be enough to grant each person a significant benefit.

All this was due to the formation built by the ancient supreme force during the ancient times; the ultimate heritage site was also the place with the densest spiritual Qi in the entire mystical realm.

Once close enough, one could see a glowing gateway suspended in a valley in the distance, with surges of spiritual Qi spilling out from there.

Xuan One, Yuwen Wind, and a group of martial artists from the six great holy lands, including Lin Bai, were the first to arrive here.

At this moment, Yuwen Wind and representatives from the six great holy lands stared at the glowing gateway with intense fervor, as this was their primary objective for descending the mountain.

Only they knew what the existence of the object inside truly meant.

It could even be said that the entire mystical realm was actually used by the ancient supreme force to nurture this treasure.

The vast spiritual Qi within the mystical realm could be said to originate from it.

The ancient supreme force exerted the full strength of their sect to set up a shocking grand formation, continuously gathering various powers of heaven and earth to accelerate the growth of the treasure.

However, due to its exceedingly rare nature, the time it needed to mature was exceptionally long. After the ancient era and the primordial era had passed, only now had it ripened, predicted by the masters of the six great holy lands, who dispatched Yuwen Wind and the others to vie for it.

"Defy heavens and transform fate, reach the utmost pinnacle!" The hearts of Yuwen Wind and the other representatives from the holy lands were stirred with excitement, nearly losing control.

Those eight words said it all.

Even immortals would envy such a treasure that had been passed down through endless ages. In all of Nine Provinces, there had been only this one!

"Supreme heavenly seed!" Even Xuan One from the Wuji Dao Sect, and the young monk from the Sumi Buddha Sect who were both exceptionally stable figures, were now equally excited, their desires peaking.

Such an opportunity was not just for this life; through the cycles of many eras from the ancient times to the present, it had only appeared this once.

Had it not been for the mystical realm's limitation on the age of entrants and the destruction the realm would suffer if someone with overly strong martial prowess entered—leading to the treasure being lost in the vast void searching for it impossible—then even the six masters of the holy lands would have entered the fray.

Moreover, the six great holy lands would have done everything in their power, regardless of the cost, to obtain it.

A colossal opportunity, a supreme benefit!

Xuan One, Yuwen Wind, and the six representatives from the holy lands were intensely hostile towards each other. They were all on guard because they alone knew the insider information, fully aware of what lay beyond the glowing gateway.

One could say that Yuwen Wind and the others were very fortunate. If it weren't for the treasure's emergence that automatically activated the formation, nobody would have been able to seize it.

The holy land representatives took a deep breath. This time, their struggle amongst themselves would be extremely fierce, with death being inevitable. Faced with such an opportunity, no one was willing to hold back.

Boom!

At that moment, the light on the gateway intensified to an extreme, and seeing this, Yuwen Wind and the others hurriedly charged in.

"Quick, let's go in too!"

The crowd of martial artists that had just arrived was equally eager, tumbling over one another as they followed.

Even some martial artists who did not have a heritage token attempted to try their luck in the chaos, but they were directly shattered by the glowing gateway on the spot, dying without a complete corpse.

Seeing this scene, the remaining martial artists who wanted to fish in troubled waters were immediately shocked and stopped in their tracks.

Gu Chen and the others had also reached this place. He held the scorching hot heritage token, stomped his foot, and immediately rushed to the front of the glowing gateway.

Hum!

The heritage token shone, protecting Gu Chen, allowing him to smoothly step through.

Whoosh!

Space shifted and lights changed. In an instant, Gu Chen arrived in a brand new world.

"This... There's another layer of world within the mystical realm?" Gu Chen was astounded.

The mystical realm was akin to the legendary mystical realm of paradise, but what Gu Chen did not expect was that within the mystical realm, there actually existed a smaller world, or rather, a paradise.

Of course, it could also be said that this was the real core of the mystical realm, and also the location of the innermost area.

Whoosh!

A flash of light beside Gu Chen, and Lu Chang as well as the other commanders from the Jing Tian Department of the East Province appeared consecutively in this place as well.

```

The inheritance tokens totaled less than twenty, and because they could bring multiple people inside, nearly a hundred martial artists had entered this place.

Without exception, all of these individuals were Wudao Grandmasters of the Hundred Orifices Stage.

Although the number seemed large, it was actually very, very small compared to the vast number of martial artists who had flooded into the spiritual realm.

It could only be said that the strongest batch of martial artists, or rather, grandmasters, had all gathered here.

The rest, who weren't as powerful, could only remain outside.

"This place is..."

After entering, Lu Chang and the others were stunned. Gu Chen and his party were in the midst of a forest, surrounded by trees that towered sky-high, their bark pulsating as if breathing.

It felt like these ancient trees had come to life, inhaling and exhaling the Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi!

"I...I feel like I'm about to ascend to immortality?"

At this moment, a Tian-class commander of the Jing Tian Department from East Province exclaimed. As he breathed continuously, fine strands of spiritual qi could be seen entering and leaving his mouth and nose, and impurities were being expelled from his body.

The other commanders, including Lu Chang, were experiencing the same — the spiritual qi here was so dense it seemed almost liquefied.

Gu Chen also felt this way, but his physique was so strong that the spiritual qi he acquired just by breathing wasn't enough to evolve his physique further.

"A sacred ground, this is a sacred ground indeed!"

Martial artists continuously emerged here, and each one who did would gasp in amazement like the previous commander.

They were as curious about this place as Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, constantly looking around.

But Gu Chen's expression suddenly turned solemn as he said, "Where have the people from the six holy lands gone?"

As soon as Gu Chen spoke, Lu Chang and the other commanders of the Jing Tian Department from East Province also changed their expressions and hurriedly searched for their whereabouts.

"They're over there!" Gu Chen had sharp eyesight and spotted the figures of Yuwen Wind and the others.

Since they knew the insider information, they had been waiting here all along and were the first to enter this place, having already traveled some distance.

"Quick, follow them." Gu Chen knew deeply that only by following the people from the six holy lands would he have the greatest opportunity in this place.

However, as soon as they stepped out of the entrance's coverage, they suddenly felt their bodies grow heavier, and Gu Chen was no exception.

"What's going on...why is my cultivation sealed?" A martial artist cried out in panic.

"Me too..."

"So am I, what on earth is happening?"

Everyone exclaimed, and without exception, their cultivation was sealed.

Naturally, Gu Chen and the others didn't know that this was a trial set by a supremely powerful entity from ancient times, who believed that only the most exceptional geniuses deserved the supreme opportunities here.

"Could it be that one must rely solely on physical strength to move forward in this place?"

Gu Chen pondered, sensing a heavy pressure permeating the area, rendering those beneath the Hundred Orifices Stage martial artists incapable of even taking a step.

Even some of the Wudao grandmasters here with slightly weaker cultivation were red-faced and struggling to move forward.

Fortunately for Gu Chen, his physique was extraordinarily strong and the pressure, while having some effect, was not great for him.

"How are you doing, can you keep up?" Gu Chen turned to ask Lu Chang and others.

"Brother Gu, don't worry about us, go ahead on your own," Lu Chang said in a deep voice.

Knowing that Gu Chen's strength now far surpassed theirs, they didn't wish to hold him back, urging him to leave first.

At these words, Gu Chen nodded. Even in this place, his speed remained undiminished. After a few strides, his figure receded into the distance.

"Such terrifying talent."

A Tian-class commander from East Province's Jing Tian Department couldn't help but admire upon seeing Gu Chen's speed even here.

"Of course, this is the person whom even Qin Command personally praised. In the future, as long as Brother Gu survives, he will surely become another pillar of Da Xia, extending the dynasty's reign further," Lu Chang remarked.

Upon hearing this, a group of commanders nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, as Gu Chen continued to speed up his advance, he soon saw a huge stele not far ahead.

"What's that?"

Gu Chen was somewhat puzzled, but he didn't stop. He quickly arrived at the place.

Here, Gu Chen saw the martial artists from the six holy lands, along with Bu Nantian from Qinglong Valley, Lu Xing from Beidou Sect, and Xue Jingyun from Shenxiao Sect, all sitting cross-legged under the colossal stele, pondering something.

The members of the six holy lands and Lin Bai were the closest to the stele.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Gu Chen's gaze shifted and, to his surprise, he spotted Su Du from Tianyun Sect and Shen Han from Purple Extreme Sect.

With a dozen or so inheritance tokens, Gu Chen wasn't surprised these individuals had obtained one, as their strength was at the pinnacle within the spiritual realm if the six holy lands and Lin Bai were not considered.

At that moment, Gu Chen stepped forward. Unlike the others who studied the stele on site, he approached Shen Han and Su Du.

He intended to deal with these two right here and now!
