Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 2128: Chapter 1617 Cheng Yun Arrives

ps: Need twenty minutes for inspection.

————

At the moment of Gu Jin’s appearance, the Great Taoist Sound was deep and profound, spreading across the entire earth.

In an instant, countless Dark Paths were suppressed, weakened partially.

And the palm above the heavens was also lifted in an instant.

Then shattered.

Only the footsteps did not disappear.

But for the people below, the immense pressure had already lessened.

Especially at this moment, the Great Taoist Sound was deafening, as if the Dao aura of all the realms in this world converged towards that man.

Like a storm, or perhaps a blazing sun rising.

Then the countless figures in heaven began to disappear, leaving only two.

Standing tall above the heavens.

One emitted a bright light, the other a crimson light.

The strength on them was climbing infinitely.

The people below were somewhat perplexed, were there actually two mighty beings?

At the same time, the two Gu Jins spoke in unison:

"If not now, then when will be the right time to strike?

Assist me in Becoming a Saint."

As the words fell, a bright moon rose in the east, revealing a sky of void.

Then a figure stepped into the air, the blade light gathering the eternal Tao, walking towards the bright Gu Jin.

Subsequently slashed down with a saber: "Endless Time, the Tao recurs endlessly, only my Moon-Slaying saber technique endures forever, the seventh form of the Heavenly Blade, Helpless Heaven."

Endless eternity, time unceasing.

A saber that gathered from the past, slashed straight down, capable of cleaving the heavens and everything within.

Facing this terrifying strike, Gu Jin not only did not dodge but actively embraced it.

On the other side, in the west.

The sword light illuminated the heavens and earth, stars and the bright moon manifested behind him, as if engraving the splendor of this place.

He walked towards the crimson Gu Jin.

The sword in his hand was swung: "An endless sword, passing time, seeking an immortal Tao through ages, a sword honed through eternity seeking peace for all ages, my sword attests to the immortal people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion."

A sword honed through the ages, spanning centuries, the immortal people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion, forming a vast sword seeking the light of sun and moon.

A sword slashed down.

The crimson Gu Jin laughed loudly, charging forward.

Bang!

In an instant, the saber cleaved Gu Jin, the sword obliterated the crimson Gu Jin.

The heavens and earth momentarily stagnated.

The people below were even more baffled.

But the powerful forces compelled them to begin resisting this vast impact.

Rumble!

Crack!

Bang!

Bang!!

Everyone saw Gu Jin directly perish under the sword and saber.

Instantly, the world was clear and bright.

Above the heavens, the silhouette of Gu Jin disappeared.

Not only that, the two figures from before also vanished.

The earth was silent for a moment, and a wanton laughter echoed from within the Dark Path: "What is this for? A clown? I thought a powerful force was about to emerge, but it turned out to be nothing more than a figure of ridicule."

"Hahaha, I haven’t laughed so happily in a long time, seems the other side indeed had strength."

"I thought a true force was emerging, but it turned out to be a slightly skilled actor."

Their mockery was unrestrained, even beginning to insult the heavens as incompetent and the Heavenly Dao as blind.

Those not integrated into the Dark Path were silent, unsure of how to respond.

After all, nothing indeed appeared.

Just as they were indulging in their laughter, a hollow, disdainful voice suddenly resounded: "What type of role is worthy of scolding me?"

With the fall of these words, a booming erupted from all corners of the world.

The numerous people who spoke just moments ago all exploded with a bang, each and every one was blown apart.

"What trash, only fit for self-destruction." The proud voice echoed again.

At this moment above the heavens, a figure slowly condensed.

His Dao aura differed completely from the realms here.

That was walking with the Heavenly Dao, born alongside the sun and moon.

Immortal and unperishing, attesting to the immortal Tao.

Saint.

Witnessing this scene, all the Daluos felt it.

This was a realm they could not reach, the ultimate pursuit of the fellow disciples here.

Witness to the Heavenly Dao Saint.

The Saint had appeared, countless people cheered.

Perhaps they could be saved?

Gu Jin stood in the air, ignoring the people below.

Whatever battles they needed to fight, they would have to continue.

It did not concern him much.

Because he emerged not to confront the people below.

The sudden attack was simply because any petty trash dared to insult him from behind, it wasn’t as if he couldn’t defeat them, how could he not act?

But now there was no time to care for below, because the footsteps were drawing nearer.

He knew sealing space was utterly useless.

And with the appearance of these footsteps, the Dao of heaven and earth trembled.

Within lay a pair of eyes peering at him.

The overwhelming sense of oppression shocked Gu Jin.

This Saint was definitely not his match.

"Heavenly Dao, apply all the power you can channel to me," Gu Jin calmly spoke.

In that moment, Gu Jin’s power began to surge.

It wasn’t his strength, although it felt unfamiliar to use.

But there was no choice but to use it.

Boom!

Darkness appeared in the sky, the azure sky vanished in an instant, and darkness became the dominant theme.

Heaven and earth instantly fell into pitch blackness; the sun would not rise again.

Light could no longer appear.

Yet as the light faded away, a flower began to bloom beyond the sky, carrying golden radiance, with what seemed like a person sitting cross-legged inside.

Such a phenomenon spread throughout heaven and earth.

But it was impossible to discern what was inside.

Everyone was unaware of the identity within.

Nor did they understand the nature of this phenomenon.

But there was no threat to the Dark Path, nor any benefit to the Heavenly Dao.

Gradually, no one paid attention anymore.

Gu Jin stood in the heavens, becoming the brightest light there.

He stared forward, unyielding in his gaze.

The sound of footsteps had disappeared.

Cheng Yun arrived.

But Gu Jin knew it was because his power had reached its limit.

"Saint?" A low, deep voice that was hard to read in emotion came through.

Gu Jin smiled and said, "Surprised?"

"Just a Saint, but still a puppet of the Heavenly Dao," Cheng Yun looked at Gu Jin, slightly raising a hand and extending a finger: "Collapse!"

In an instant, Gu Jin’s arm shattered with a boom.

The Tao evaporated.

Yet he was unconcerned and took a step forward, closing in on the opponent.

Soon, the arm that had shattered immediately recovered.

The Tao roared, transforming into annihilation power.

A punch was thrown.

Boom!

Cheng Yun pointed two fingers at Gu Jin’s fist: "The Shifting Star Technique."

Bang!

Gu Jin’s body was directly pierced by the power of annihilation.

He did not hesitate, grasped the opponent’s arm, and moved closer again.

The other hand swung heavily with a slap.

Slap!

The sound of the slap rang out.

Then came the sound of cracking.

Cheng Yun did not move, Gu Jin’s arm directly snapped.

"Great Tao Void." Cheng Yun’s voice rang out again.

Gu Jin’s body was gradually dissipating.

"Heavenly might," Gu Jin roared in anger.

Instantly, the Heavenly Dao’s power erupted forth.

Then he began to punch again.

Boom!

Boom!!

Gu Jin did not employ any Dao techniques, but instead fought with his physical body.

And as they clashed, stars began to shatter, and heaven and earth completely lost a corner.

Gu Jin was injured, the Heavenly Dao shifted, and the void of all things continued to disappear.

They moved with incredible speed within the void, surpassing comprehension, battling through time.

Gu Jin felt Cheng Yun underestimated him; in an instant of proximity, he channeled the Heavenly Dao’s power into the other’s body.

Then detonated it.

"Useless," Cheng Yun calmly spoke, feeling the power in his body.

"How about this?" Gu Jin said as he activated Dao techniques in his hand.

The Cause and Effect Sword intertwined, slicing past causes and future effects.

Aiming to annihilate Cheng Yun’s past and future completely.

"Die for me," Gu Jin’s body erupted with Tao Power, causing heaven and earth to collapse halfway.

And Gu Jin’s body disintegrated.

Finally, with half his body lost, this sword of cause and effect struck down.

Boom!

Cheng Yun’s body was marked by a slash, then began to gradually fade.

Completely vanished.

Gu Jin was exhausted, his body halved, the Tao barely able to recover.

This battle he dared not prolong, having used all his strength, hoping to catch the opponent off guard.

Looking at the vanishing Cheng Yun, he was somewhat puzzled: "Did I win just like this?"

"Naturally not." A sudden voice sounded behind Gu Jin, followed by a finger pointing at the back of his head, a cold yet calm voice resounded: "The new Heavenly Dao shows no progress; fall."

Bang!

Gu Jin’s entire head exploded, then fell into the Time River, in the ancient chaotic stream.

And Cheng Yun only lowered his gaze, eyes without joy or sorrow.

He had only responded using two fingers thus far, not warranting additional effort for a Heavenly Dao Saint.
