The Might of the Qi Sect Realm!

"So this is a demonic beast—the Silver Wolf King!" Gu Shaoshang lay prone on the ground. Surging currents of air sent snow flying everywhere as the Silver Wolf King, carrying an overwhelming presence, crossed dozens of zhang in an instant and charged at Zhao He before everyone's horrified eyes!

Boom!

"Ah!"

Crack!

One guard failed to dodge in time and was flung high into the air amid the teeth-grinding sound of shattering bones. He let out only one scream before falling silent!

"Hey!"

Zhao He shouted, the great tendons throughout his body bulging as he swelled like the Giant Spirit God! His exposed skin flushed fiery red! A Blood Qi Torrent rose high like a battle banner, and amid explosive sounds like ghosts wailing and wolves howling through the air, he advanced instead of retreating!

Boom!

Red and white currents of air collided violently, unleashing a tremendous shockwave like two missiles crashing together! Trees within ten zhang were uprooted! Men and beasts alike were blown away like rag dolls by the blast!

Gu Shaoshang twisted in midair, catching the equally airborne Gu Lianxing. His back slammed heavily into a tree trunk!

"Urgh!"

Gu Shaoshang spat out a mouthful of blood. Ignoring the burning pain in his organs, he rolled over and laid the unconscious Gu Lianxing on the ground. Looking up, he saw Zhao He's flame-like Blood Qi Torrent tangled with the Silver White Curtain raised by the Silver Wolf King!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The enormous crashes continued without end. Before Gu Shaoshang's shocked eyes, Zhao He's Blood Qi Battle Banner went out like a candle! He was swept away by the Silver Wolf King and shoved more than a hundred zhang away!

"Bang! Crack! ..." The sounds of trees snapping rang out incessantly as countless trunks were hurled through the air!

A massive trench three zhang wide and of unknown length had been plowed through the forest!

"Those who are still alive, get out here and protect your young lady! I'll lure away the Silver Wolf King!" Gu Shaoshang shouted. He took several strides, pulled the long blade from the ground, and leaped onto a tree branch. He watched the surviving guards stumble toward Gu Lianxing.

"I can only risk my life!" Standing in the tree, Gu Shaoshang understood that if he could not lure away the Silver Wolf King, everyone would die! Consider it repayment for your Replenishing Pill! Gu Shaoshang stood silently.

Gu Shaoshang pulled open his clothes, revealing a row of flying daggers strapped around his waist. "I don't have no chance at all!"

Mirror World.

"Manifest the Flying Dagger Technique!"

Even knowing that no matter how long passed in the Mirror World, only an instant would pass outside, Gu Shaoshang still could not help feeling pressed for time!

Manifesting Flying Dagger Technique... Source Power: 1 point... Manifesting... Manifestation successful

The Myriad Heavens Mirror shone with purple light, enveloping Gu Shaoshang. Teng Qingshan's memories of the Flying Dagger Technique flowed into Gu Shaoshang's mind like a stream.

Flying dagger training... flying dagger techniques... flying dagger redirection...

"One hand grips a walnut, one intent connects the meridians, one eye pierces through the back!" Gu Shaoshang murmured. This was a basic trick for learning flying daggers: hold the weapon loosely as if grasping a walnut, let the force rise from the Dantian through the heart and arm, and aim at the point where the dagger would pass through the opponent's chest and emerge from their back.

A realization rose in Gu Shaoshang's heart, as though forgotten memories had been recalled! In an instant, it felt as if he had trained with flying daggers for more than a decade!

Leaving the Mirror World, Gu Shaoshang lowered his arm and spread his five fingers, holding three flying daggers. His eyes gleamed brightly, as though a lamp had been lit deep within them. His gaze was incomparably focused!

"Teng Qingshan's Flying Dagger Technique reached mastery when 'spirit' was infused into the dagger, causing it to change direction or shatter! I can't sense any trace of 'spirit' at all, but this is already enough!" Gu Shaoshang gripped the flying daggers and swept his gaze toward the trench.

"Awoo!"

At the far end, the enormous Silver Wolf King threw back its head and let out a deafening roar! Beneath its claws, Zhao He lay soundlessly like mud, his red scale armor torn to pieces!

An Establish Fate Realm martial artist had died just like that in the jaws of a demonic beast! Gu Shaoshang sighed inwardly, his desire to grow stronger reaching an unprecedented height!

Gu Family Village.

The elder Gu Xuanzhen sat at the head of the room, while Gu Ji and Gu Yu sat below him.

"The Silver Wolf King in Silver Wolf Valley is an old demonic beast, and it has four Lead Wolves that are nearly demonic beasts themselves. Several nearby villages have suffered repeated attacks from it! The dead and wounded are too numerous to count!" Gu Yu sighed.

"I once led a team there with a bow to surround and kill it. Unfortunately, I only shot three Lead Wolves dead. That Silver Wolf King has Bronze Skin and Iron Bones. I failed to kill it with one arrow and nearly ended up in its jaws!" Gu Ji slapped his thigh and said bitterly, "Eighteen hunters from Gu Family Village died that time, and three were seriously injured!"

The elder nodded. "After the annual sacrifice, I will deal with it myself! I only hope Lianxing does not foolishly go to Silver Wolf Valley!" His brow furrowed as he continued, "That girl has been fooling around! I told her to bring a bottle of Replenishing Pills to Little Nine for his injuries, but she actually threatened Little Nine's child into taking her up the mountain to gather herbs!"

Gu Ji smiled. "Uncle Zhen, there is no need to worry. So long as they are not surrounded by the wolf pack, Brother Zhao will surely bring the young lady back safely!"

"Yes! Rest easy, Uncle Zhen!" Gu Yu echoed.

Whoosh!

As they spoke, a sharp sound of something piercing the air suddenly came from outside!

Gu Xuanzhen's expression changed. "Not good! The girl is in danger! Unless it is a critical moment, Lianxing would never fire the Qi Arrow!" With one leap, he shot out of the house! Gu Ji and Gu Yu hurried after him!

Boom!

Air currents swirled around Gu Xuanzhen as he stepped into the air and flew away! Thunderous explosions erupted through the air, forming a long passage of rushing wind as he pierced the void!

"Only Qi Sect Realm experts can fly through the air like that! And he has broken the sound barrier in speed! Uncle Zhen is actually at the peak of the Qi Sect Realm!" Gu Ji was stunned. Breaking the sound barrier with the physical body was something only Great Masters at the peak of the Qi Sect Realm, those of Qi Cultivation Limitless, could achieve!

Gu Yu was even more shocked than Gu Ji. He clicked his tongue repeatedly. "...The Qi Sect Realm! A legendary, powerful martial artist!"

Among the countless villages within a thousand li of Great Ming Mountain, such an expert had not appeared in centuries! Gu Yu's eyes were filled with envy and reverence as he sighed endlessly.

The Qi Sect Realm was the second great realm of martial arts. Qi Sect Realm martial artists could fly through the air, break the sound barrier with their bodies, and strike dozens of zhang away with true qi! Martial artists of this realm could no longer be killed by sheer numbers. It was the beginning of transcending mortality and entering sainthood!

After their amazement subsided, Gu Yu and Gu Ji summoned the village's entire Hunting Team and hurried after him.

Gu Lianxing slowly woke up. Everything before her eyes was a complete mess, as though a typhoon had swept through! The six guards, all wounded, stood around her while a pack of silver wolves approached with low growls!

"Where is Gu Shaoshang?" Gu Lianxing's Xingmou widened, her delicate face full of worry. If he died because she had forced him up the mountain, how could she ever face the people of Gu Family Village?

"Young Lady, Commander Zhao was killed by the Silver Wolf King! Little Brother Gu went to lure away the Silver Wolf King!" A guard covered in blood answered.

"Young Lady, Old Song can only protect you this far!" A middle-aged guard whose entire left arm had been torn away shouted! Roaring, he charged toward the wolf pack.

"Damn beasts!" The middle-aged guard sighed inwardly. I have lost too much blood to live through today. I will gamble my life for my daughter's future! His remaining right hand swept out a blaze of Blade Light, and the strength of the Four Foundation Establishment Gates erupted in a desperate burst! In a few short moments, he hacked more than a dozen silver wolves to death before crying out and being swallowed by the pack!

"Old Song!" Gu Lianxing was only thirteen, after all. A guard who had accompanied her for many years had just died in the wolves' bellies, and tears covered her delicate face.

Boom!

Gu Xuanzhen descended from the sky with boundless force, landing heavily behind the wolf pack. The entire forest shook violently, erupting with a massive explosion like heaven and earth collapsing. Dozens of silver wolves were knocked rolling into a heap by the huge impact. An enormous, godlike and demonic pressure bore down upon them, and the wolves whimpered like puppies, tails tucked as they crawled on the ground!

Rumble!

Only then did the rolling thunder of Gu Xuanzhen's flight through the air reach them from the horizon! The fierce gale made his gray robe flap loudly!

"Grandfather!" Gu Lianxing cried out in delight, running into the elder's embrace and bursting into tears.

"Elder Gu!"

The guards all dropped to their knees. "We failed in our duty and frightened the young lady! Please punish us, Elder Gu!"

Gu Xuanzhen held his granddaughter, his face cold and solemn. "It is not your fault. Rise. Where is Zhao He? Why do I not see him?"

The guards answered timidly, "Commander Zhao... Commander Zhao died in the jaws of the Silver Wolf King!... His body... his body is gone!"

A chill swept through the forest, and the entire mountain woods fell deathly silent.

"Damnable beast!" Gu Xuanzhen gave a cold smile and raised one palm upright. As though a divine weapon had been unsheathed, a sharp Blade Qi that filled heaven and earth covered the entire forest!

"Whimper..." Sensing the danger, the wolves cried out softly and fled in all directions!

"Can you escape?" Gu Xuanzhen slashed his hand diagonally. Tangible Blade Qi burst forth, and amid the ghostly wails it produced in the air, he swept out with a single strike!

The world suddenly darkened, even the radiance of the sun suppressed! Dense Blade Qi tore through the air, whipping up a storm of blood within thirty zhang! Countless giant wolves screamed as they were cut in half. Blood, entrails, and brains carpeted dozens of zhang! Such was the terror of the Qi Sect Realm!

The guards' legs trembled, their faces drained of all color!
