Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

At this moment, the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect was ashen-faced and powerless to stop what was happening, his only option was to watch Gu Chen leave.

After Gu Chen had left, the sacred weapon of the holy land flashed with light, vanishing in an instant, returning to the deepest recesses of the sect entrance.

And that remarkable surging force that had been stirring also quickly subsided once again.

After the great battle, the Vault of Sky Sword Sect was a complete wreck, suffering heavy losses.

The sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect had a particularly dark and ugly expression, clenching his fists tightly, with a very sinister look in his eyes.

If it were possible, he would have liked to tear Gu Chen into pieces, but he hadn't been able to do so. The other had come to the holy land, killed freely, engaged in combat with him, almost crushing him, and then left leisurely.

This was an unprecedented humiliation that made the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect tremble with rage, almost causing him to faint.

"To be an enemy of the holy land, you will certainly not have a good ending, Gu Chen, your arrogance won't last much longer!" bit the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect through gritted teeth, struggling with all his might to suppress the rage within his heart.

Although he wanted to go directly to Tiandu and brutally kill countless citizens of Da Xia, considering Gu Chen's strength, he ultimately did not dare to do so.

In the holy land, even with all sorts of advantages, he was no match for Gu Chen; were he to leave the sect, it would be even less likely.

"This junior has grown so much in such a short period of time, it can't simply be described as talent, he must have had an immense stroke of luck, especially, to have withstood the Ming Tian Sword at the end, what exactly is he hiding?"

The sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect had a face as somber as water, just now, he had sensed a fleeting force from Gu Chen's body, a force capable of withstanding the Ming Tian Sword definitely belonged to a weapon of the same caliber, but it was impossible for Gu Chen to possess such a weapon.

At this time, seeing that the battle here was over, the disciples and elders of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect also gathered around.

"No one is allowed to speak of today's events, from now on, seal the sect!" said the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, as he coldly glanced at them.

Immediately, everyone fell silent, nodding hastily. At this crucial moment, they dared not provoke the ire of the sect master.

No matter what, they couldn't have imagined that the once-despised Gu Chen could nearly destroy the holy land, to the point that even the sacred weapon, the Ming Tian Sword, could not prevail against him.

"This junior is truly defying the heavens!" This was the thought in everyone's mind at the Vault of Sky Sword Sect.

At the same time, today's matter was a tremendous disgrace, and it was a good thing that it was not to be disclosed; if word got out, it wasn't just the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect who would be mocked, but they would be as well.

At this moment, a Tongshen Realm elder hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Sect Master, now that Gu Chen has grown to this stage, almost invincible throughout the world, should we ask the ancestors to come out of seclusion and suppress him immediately?"

The "ancestor" he referred to was naturally a Divine Intent Realm powerhouse sleeping within the Vault of Sky Sword Sect.

The face of the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect was grim. He had, of course, thought about this matter, but the ancestor, having reached the Divine Intent Realm, was also not far from his life's limit. His slumber was to wait for the right moment to ascend to the higher realms and then seek an opportunity to break through to the Heavenly Human Realm to extend his lifespan.

At this critical juncture, unless the Vault of Sky Sword Sect was on the verge of annihilation, even as the sect master, waking him would incur punishment, and due to this matter, along with poor management of the holy land, he could even face the peril of death.

Therefore, after some consideration, the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect had decided not to wake the slumbering Divine Intent Realm powerhouse.

"No need, I have my own plans!"

After uttering these words, the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect turned and left; he too had suffered serious injuries in the battle and needed to heal immediately.

Seeing the sect master depart, the rest of the crowd looked at each other but ultimately dared not say more.

Elsewhere, after leaving the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, Gu Chen immediately absorbed the weapon he got from the Great Elder, but unfortunately, this time, the mysterious gauntlets did not transmit much unusual activity.

However, had it not been for the ancient artifact of the mysterious gauntlets, he would not have been able to withstand the Vault of Sky Sword Sect's sacred weapon, the Ming Tian Sword, and would have had to flee using his divine seed.

"It seems that ancient artifacts are even more extraordinary than I imagined." Gu Chen marveled, no wonder the Pure Yang Martial Sect was so eager to reclaim the mysterious gauntlets.

If he were in their shoes, he would feel the same, no doubt the high-ranking individuals of the Pure Yang Martial Sect regretted it profoundly.

But now, the item was in his possession, and it was naturally his.

"The holy land is indeed not to be underestimated." Thinking of the Ming Tian Sword, Gu Chen's expression also became serious; fortunately, the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect's cultivation was not sufficient, otherwise, with that sword strike, even with the mysterious gauntlets, Gu Chen would have been severely injured.

After all, such weapons were not easy to wield; their power was immensely strong, but the consumption was also terrifying. One strike had nearly exhausted the sect master of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, a true essence Coagulation Field Realm grandmaster at the pinnacle of martial arts.

Gu Chen had determined that if the sect master were to leave the Vault of Sky Sword Sect's sect entrance without the protection of the formations, he definitely wouldn't be able to use the Ming Tian Sword.

Since it was the "foundation" of the holy land, it could naturally only be used at the brink of life and death, and was meant for those slumbering Divine Intent Realm powerhouses.

"Next, I should also start figuring out a way to break through to the Divine Intent Realm."

By now, Gu Chen's martial cultivation realm had reached the late stages of the Coagulation Field Realm, his domain had evolved to cover a radius of thirty-six feet, for him, reaching the grand completion of the Coagulation Field Realm was not an issue, nor would it take much time.
