Change

With the combined strength of the five cities, they defeated tens of thousands of Demonic Beasts.

It should be noted that the Demonic Beasts of the Yunqi Mountains have always been a major threat to Star Province and Jiangzhou.

In particular, Dragon Sparrow Manor not only had one Supreme Elder tied down, but also needed to constantly dispatch Spirit Transformation Grand Cultivator and Spirit Refining True Person along with many True Disciple Core Forming, Gang Condensing, and Qi Refining Realms to guard the area.

Even so, news of Demonic Beasts breaking out of the Yunqi Mountains and wreaking havoc was still common.

Unfortunately, the Yunqi Mountains are treacherous, with towering peaks and dense forests, harboring countless Demonic Beasts. Even if Longque Manor were willing to venture deep into the mountains and quell the Demonic Beasts chaos, they would be powerless to do so.

To some extent, the Demonic Beasts of the Yunqi Mountains are a formidable force comparable to that of the Dragon Sparrow Manor.

But now...

Such a massive horde of Demonic Beasts launched a massive beast tide attack, yet it was actually defeated by the five-city army led by Gu Jinlai, with Lingxiao City at its head, slaying nearly five thousand Demonic Beasts and tens of thousands of ferocious beasts. Such strength...

It's appalling.

"Ferocious beasts are equivalent to the Qi Refining stage in humans. Although they are not like Demonic Beasts, lacking intelligence and martial arts skills, and their actual combat strength is weaker than Qi Refining of humans at the Qi Refining stage, tens of thousands of ferocious beasts... could easily rout a hundred thousand elite troops. At least within Star Province, no force could withstand them head-on. At best, they could only rely on city defenses, dividing and conquering them one by one..."

Cheng Wanli gasped. "But that's not the most astonishing thing. The most astonishing thing is..."

Tang Qing, recalling the intelligence he had received, couldn't help but feel a moment of disorientation.

The overlord of the Yunqi Mountains, the Demon Ape Commander who ruled over tens of thousands of Demonic Beasts... is dead.

High-ranking Demonic Beasts!

Or is it a high-ranking Demonic Beasts who has condensed an indestructible demonic body!

Back then, Dragon Sparrow Manor dispatched three Supreme Elders at the Nascent Primordial Spirit True Lord Realm to assassinate this Demon Ape Commander, but the Demon Ape still managed to escape.

Furthermore, as the demonic ape fled into a deep abyss, the three Primordial Spirit True Lord dared not venture any further.

Otherwise, once they get close to the ground, giving the demonic apes the means to attack them, they will definitely face a near-death experience.

Yet such a powerful being has fallen victim to the hands of people Gu Jinlai.

"No wonder the Star Lord told us to stop targeting Gu Jinlai and ordered the Meteor Guards stationed in Changjun City, Baihe City and other cities to obey Gu Jinlai's orders. With such strength by our side, who would dare to disobey us?"

Cheng Wanli said.

Tang Qing nodded.

The corpses of tens of thousands of ferocious beasts and nearly five thousand Demonic Beasts are the best proof of the strength of Lingxiao City.

This power...

Even the large army under General Xue Yue's command might not be able to withstand them, let alone the Meteor Guard.

"Let's go, we don't need your help here anymore."

Cheng Wanli said something and turned his horse around.

"Aren't you going to say hello?"

Tang Qing asked.

Although he belonged to Su Wen's group, Su Wen had been getting very close to Xue Yue and others during this time. In addition, he had already seen through the situation of the Meteor Guard, or rather, the future situation of Star Province, so he naturally wanted to repair the relationship with Lingxiao City.

"The Star Lord still hopes that the Second Young Master can change his mind. It is justifiable for us to lead the troops to ambush the Demonic Beasts, but it is not appropriate to get too close to Lingxiao City."

After Cheng Wanli finished speaking, he gave an order.

Immediately, hundreds, even nearly a thousand, of the Meteor Guards who had gathered from various cities changed direction and quickly returned to their respective cities.

It was Gu Jinlai known that the Meteor Guards had entered Baihe City and then immediately withdrew.

Through this action, Gu Jinlai has truly confirmed Xin Tianqi's attitude.

"Within Star Province... Meteor Guard... we can still try to win them over."

He murmured to himself Gu Jinlai.

At this moment, he stood bare-armed in the center of the training ground, with the sun shining brightly and intensely in all directions.

His size had increased dramatically since his battle with the Demon Ape Commander, growing from 3.6 meters to a massive 4.6 meters, making him look like a true giant.

Standing in the courtyard, he was even higher than the top floors of most of the houses.

With his robust physique, wild aura, and golden light radiating from his entire body, coupled with a blazing phantom of a great sun behind him, he appeared at first glance to be an innate deity who had emerged from the ancient, primordial era.

"After condensing the body of a mid-level great Demonic Beasts, the Great Sun True Demon Body grew even larger."

Gu Jinlai, people have felt their own power.

In reality, the Great Sun True Demon Body is equivalent to the immortal demon body of the Demonic Beasts path.

However, only by cultivating diligently at the mid-level Great Demonic Beasts stage can Demonic Beasts hope to condense an indestructible demonic body, but his Great Sun Demon God Body Refining Technique seems to be extremely exquisite...

When one cultivates it to its fullest potential, one can manifest the Undying Demon Body.

Just like when he practiced the Great Sun Ninefold Refinement Visualization Method, even though his cultivation was not enough and he was still two major realms away from the Heavenly Monarch realm, he still cultivated True Spirit ahead of time and was able to show a part of the mystery of the True Spirit.

This is the change brought about by the purple Cultivation Method.

"Different Demonic Beasts condense different characteristics of their indestructible demonic bodies. For example, the Demon Ape Commander's indestructible demonic body seems to have two forms. One form is a twenty-meter-tall giant ape that supports the sky, with its power surging. The other form is a defensive form that increases in height by three meters while maintaining a twelve-meter body..."

Gu Jinlai a brief assessment, it was quickly realized that the Demon Ape Commander's Undying Demon Body was slightly more refined than the Great Sun True Demon Body in his possession.

At least, his Great Sun True Demon Body did not change anything other than causing his power to surge.

Even the Great Sun Divine Light is merely a new characteristic derived from the Great Sun Demon God's Body Refinement Technique after it has reached perfection.

"Although the Great Sun Demon God Body Refining Method was forged by countless elders of the Tianyuan Dao with their life's blood and sweat, and then optimized by me, the foundation is still there... The 'Undying Demon Body' derived from this Cultivation Method is naturally less varied than the Undying Demon Body cultivated by true Demonic Beasts."

This Gu Jinlai.

During this time, he occasionally chatted with Jiang Chongshan and learned that there were intelligent Demonic Spirit...

There must have been a vast civilization.

That is why, after their invasion of their world was thwarted, they were able to devise a countermeasure: combining Demonic Spirit and ferocious beasts to create the existence of Demonic Beasts.

If they can develop Demonic Beasts system, they can naturally develop corresponding Cultivation Method as well.

Therefore, it is reasonable that their mastery of the "undying demonic body" surpasses that of demonic warriors in the human world.

"Ancestor, reinforcements from the Purgatory Sect have arrived."

Seeing that Gu Jinlai seemed to have finished his cultivation, Gu Chaoyang, who was waiting outside, came forward.

"Although we are late, it is still a well-intentioned effort. I think the strength that Lingxiao City has shown in the battle of Baihe City is enough to change the views of many forces."

Gu Jinlai shrank in size and took the clothes handed to him by Su Nanxing, putting them on. "Go and see this Elder Lu."

Lu Zhanfeng.

The largest faction within the Purgatory Sect, the Lu family lineage, has a Spirit Transformation Grand Cultivator.

Currently, besides Elder Lu Zhanxian, who is known as one of the top ten masters of the demonic path, the Lu family faction has two top pillars: Lu Dengxian and Lu Zhanfeng.

In addition, there are some Spirit Refining Elders from the Lu family below them.

Their immense power gave them enormous authority within the Purgatory Sect.

However, at this moment, the Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivator appeared very humble.

Upon entering Baihe City and witnessing firsthand the cleaved corpse of the demonic ape leader, he realized the immense power that Gu Jinlai ...

Or rather, the power of Lingxiao City is probably still beyond everyone's imagination.

The Demon Ape Commander was someone that even three Nascent Primordial Spirit True Lord from Dragon Sparrow Manor couldn't kill back then.

Now Gu Jinlai, anyone who can kill the Demon Ape Commander has a huge army that can defeat tens of thousands of ferocious beasts and four or five thousand Demonic Beasts. How much less difficult is it to kill him compared to the Demon Ape Commander?

No wonder he had the courage to lead his troops into the Chi Province, wanting to compete with the Purgatory Sect.

If they really fight...

The Purgatory Sect only dispatched one Primordial Spirit True Lord; they might not be able to defeat him.

After all, compared to the Demon Ape Commander who relied on his amazing defense and vitality to withstand the flying sword, it wouldn't be difficult for him, who had grasped the profound meaning of the concept, to block the flying sword shot by the Primordial Spirit True Lord.

"This Elder Gu... although he doesn't have the mobility of Primordial Spirit True Lord, his difficulty in dealing with him is probably on par with a Nascent Primordial Spirit True Lord... to be precise, he should be regarded as a high-ranking Demonic Beasts."

After having this thought, Lu Zhanfeng felt a little happy.

Fortunately, the Supreme Elder Liu Jingtao promptly ordered Lu Dengxian to hand over Lin Xiao, thus resolving the conflict Gu Jinlai.

Otherwise, Gu Jinlai truly display power comparable to a high-ranking Demonic Beasts, leaving their Supreme Elder of the Purgatory Sect helpless, then there will be no room for maneuver for either side.

Now...

"Our Purgatory Sect has gained another top-tier combatant."

Lu Zhanfeng smiled and waited obediently in the living room.

Before long, Gu Jinlai and Su Nanxing walked in.

Lu Zhanfeng stood up immediately and greeted him with a hint of guilt, "I'm sorry, Elder Gu, we're late and we couldn't help High Antiquity."

"Elder Lu set off from Chishan City and traveled more than two thousand miles in just two days. He has been working day and night. I am already very grateful for his dedication."

Gu Jinlai, he cupped his hands in the direction of the Purgatory Sect and said, "I would like to trouble Elder Lu to convey my gratitude to the Sect Master and all the elders on my behalf."

"It is only right. Elder Gu is guarding the cities of Star Province for our Purgatory Sect. How can we stand idly by when he is attacked by Demonic Beasts?"

As Lu Zhanfeng spoke, he waved his hand and said, "Taihe City has been breached, and many Demonic Beasts and ferocious beasts have also scattered at the foot of Yunqi Mountain. It will take a lot of manpower to kill these Demonic Beasts and ferocious beasts and restore peace to Taihe City. This time I have brought many elders and protectors. I have handed them all over to Elder Gu and they will obey Elder Gu's orders."

There have been some surprises Gu Jinlai.

Purgatory Sect...

They actually gave him real power?

Is she really trying to get back together with him?

Thinking that he might as well take advantage of someone's offer, he smiled and agreed, "Thank you, Elder Lu."

After exchanging pleasantries, Lu Zhanfeng seemed to have thought of something, and said with a slightly serious expression, "The matter of the Demonic Beasts attack on Taihe City, Baihe City, and even heading straight for Lingxiao City, although it was said to be aimed at the Heavenly Masters of the Great Sun Heavenly Sect and Elder Gu, you, the newly promoted Heavenly Lord, seems to be more complicated as our intelligence personnel have gone deeper into the Yunqi Mountains to investigate."

"Um!?"

Gu Jinlai's expression shifted. "Elder Lu means..."

Lu Zhanfeng nodded. "There is the shadow of Dragon Sparrow Manor behind this matter."
