The Entire Army Was Wiped Out

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a massive figure gradually came into focus.

The moment they saw this figure, both Ye Qianqiu and the Snow River Sword Master widened their eyes and trembled slightly.

"From ancient times to the Gu Jinlai..."

Gu Jinlai!

This enormous figure, emerging from endless dust, is none other than the Gu Jinlai.

Relying on the "eternal and indestructible" property derived from the Eternal Furnace, at the moment of the energy burst, his body merged with the Eternal Furnace, transforming into a life form similar to energy.

Furthermore, the terrifyingly high temperature and energy contained within the Eternal Furnace enveloped his body and consciousness, preventing even a strike as powerful as a small tactical nuclear bomb from completely dissolving him.

Like a fish in a tsunami, it will naturally not be destroyed by the power of the giant waves.

Especially...

Thanks to the eternal and indestructible nature of the Eternal Furnace, his entire state was as if it had been refreshed and reset. At this moment, apart from his simple clothing, his muscular upper body showed no signs of injury, and neither of the two scars remained.

A faint golden light emanated from his body, and behind him, a large halo of sunlight shimmered outwards in concentric circles, making him look like a god cast in gold, exuding a suffocating pressure.

"Your injury..."

Ye Qianqiu's face was filled with disbelief.

Despite having been pierced by the flying swords of several Spirit Transformation cultivators Gu Jinlai, leaving numerous bloody holes in his body, now...

Intact and undamaged!

This scene almost completely overturned his worldview.

"How is this possible..."

"Boom!"

His response was a sudden, earth-shaking tremor beneath his feet, a tremor that has reverberated Gu Jinlai.

The ground within a radius of several meters appeared to have been blasted and cracked by a tremendous force.

With a burst of power from his feet, Gu Jinlai's figure resembled an ancient demon god, carrying a fierce and terrifying Sha Qi. He boldly crossed the less than 100-meter distance between them. Before he even arrived, the suffocatingly oppressive fist energy descended first.

Gu Jinlai!

Ye Qianqiu let out a resolute shout.

His energy and spirit surged dramatically.

A dragon's roar emanated from within his body.

The Great Sigh Transforms into a Dragon Technique.

He channeled his true essence into the flying sword beside him, causing the Sword Qi and sword aura emanating from the sword to reach their peak. The sword energy faintly condensed into a phantom resembling a Heavenly Dragon Wood, emitting a soul-stirring roar.

"Sword transforms into a celestial dragon!"

"Boom!"

Before the celestial dragon formed by the flying sword could reach its peak, a beam of light from the great sun behind Gu Jinlai had already struck first.

Eternal Heavenly Curse.

Huo Yuqing managed to withstand the Eternal Heavenly Curse's onslaught by relying on her Primordial Spirit, which had been condensed to its extreme, and her quasi-Dao artifact flying sword, which contained divine transformation characteristics.

However, Ye Qianqiu's Primordial Spirit had not yet reached its peak, and the flying sword in his hand only possessed the three conventional characteristics of breaking through the air, sharpness, and boundlessness. How could he withstand the bombardment of the Eternal Heavenly Curse?

The flying sword, transformed into a majestic and roaring celestial dragon, vanished under the impact of the Eternal Heavenly Curse.

Although the Sword Qi energy emanating from this flying sword is still sharp enough to make any Spirit Transformation cultivator take notice, its power is far less than before.

As the Gu Jinlai fist, carrying the force of a thunderous blow, slammed down, its pure and violent power shook the void, instantly blasting the flying sword away.

"No!"

The flying sword was blasted away, and despair immediately appeared in Ye Qianqiu's eyes, who had made a desperate gamble.

The next moment, Gu Jinlai's aura soared to the sky, like a true peerless Demonic Beasts, and he unleashed a barrage of punches, relentlessly attacking Ye Qianqiu.

He unleashed 136 punches in a single breath.

For the first half breath, Ye Qianqiu was able to rely on his own Primordial Spirit True Person essence and protective Spirit Artifact to resist, and even tried his best to break free from the envelopment of the Gu Jinlai fist force and fly into the void.

But...

The purpose of this outbreak, Gu Jinlai, is to give Ye Qianqiu no time to resist.

In addition, with his mid-level Demonic Beasts physique and the eruption of the Great Sun True Demon Body, he was already far superior to Primordial Spirit True Person in close combat.

All directions were annihilated.

To roam the world freely.

The perfect combination of Movement Method and Swordsmanship completely shattered all of Ye Qianqiu's resistance.

Ye Qianqiu struggled for a moment before his spiritual armor shattered and his True Qi exploded.

In the end, a dozen punches struck his body simultaneously, instantly shattering him into pieces.

The cruelty and violence were enough to make anyone who witnessed it tremble with fear.

After killing Ye Qianqiu, Gu Jinlai turned his attention to something else.

But then the Snow River Sword Master's figure rushed into the dust at an extremely fast speed and quickly disappeared into the dust-filled area.

Despite his unwavering loyalty to Dragon Sparrow Manor, this Snow River Sword Master was even willing to fight to the death for Dragon Sparrow Manor.

But...

Being willing to fight to the death for Dragon Sparrow Manor and meaninglessly throwing one's life away are two different concepts.

Even knowing that the mighty forces of the Gu Jinlai are invincible, they are still driven by anger to seek their own demise...

That's the work of a brute.

She, the Snow River Sword Master, wanted to preserve her body to safeguard the legacy of Dragon Sparrow Manor, hoping to one day rise again and avenge the vengeance of the elders, seniors, and founders of Dragon Sparrow Manor.

"Call out!"

The Snow River Sword Master fled into the swirling dust for a few breaths before his sword light pierced the air!

A sword light, imbued with the spirit of Star Lord Xin Tianqi, descended from the sky.

Instantly, the roar of an explosion, the scattered energy fluctuations, and the shrill screams came from the direction where the Snow River Sword Master had fled.

As soon as Xin Tianqi's sword light arrived, five more sword lights roared through the air, simultaneously attacking in several directions.

In those directions, Sword Qi also rose, colliding and intersecting with the sword light, bursting out violent air waves and stirring up dust.

These sword lights pointed the way for Gu Jinlai, who could barely see his surroundings.

He strode forward, creating a gust of wind, and quickly arrived at the location of the nearest Spirit Transformation cultivator.

The Spirit Transformation cultivator was currently fighting Cheng Wanli from afar, using his sword.

Upon sensing the Gu Jinlai with his overwhelming aura, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately tried to retrieve his flying sword.

But Cheng Wanli also sensed the aura from Gu Jinlai, so how could he let go of such a precious opportunity?

The sword's edge vibrated, relentlessly entangled with the flying sword of this Spirit Transformation cultivator.

In just a moment, Gu Jinlai had already pounced on this Nascent Spirit Transformation.

"No! No! I..."

Before the Spirit Transformation cultivator could even beg for mercy, he was blasted to death with a single punch by the charging Gu Jinlai.

Without pausing for a moment Gu Jinlai annihilating this Spirit Transformation cultivator, they followed the sword light and headed towards another Nascent Spirit Transformation at Dragon Sparrow Manor.

Before long, the earth rumbled.

Iron hooves trampled, ferocious beasts roared, and tyrannical dragons howled.

Countless demon guards, riding various mounts, surged in like a torrent of steel, crashing into this ruined land filled with dust, thick smoke, and raging flames.

Ignoring the still incredibly high temperatures, they brutally slaughtered the survivors of Dragon Sparrow Manor.

War!

This is a war between the two top powers of Jiangzhou and Star Province!

In the face of such a war, let alone ordinary soldiers, even those "big Qi Refining" who have cultivated True Qi and can rank among the top 100 in a county town of 100,000 people are just cannon fodder.

At the same time.

In the vicinity of Longxiao City and Longteng Mountain.

Disciples from the Yellow Heaven Sect, Cold Moon Sect, and even Huangquanzong Purgatory Sect also saw the brilliance that resembled the falling sun.

Shortly afterward, the Demon God's personal guards, who were originally located at the foot of Dragon Mountain, charged forward with all their might, covering seven or eight miles at an extremely fast speed, and rushed into the battlefield like an iron torrent.

Everyone realized something from this scene.

"Dragon Sparrow Manor... is finished."

What followed was shock.

They were shocked by the power that had almost wiped out many of the elites of Dragon Sparrow Manor.

"What immense power is that? Gu Jinlai hurled the blazing sun from the heavens to the earth outside Dragon Roar City?"

"Longque Manor's defeat at the hands of such devastating power is not unjust."

"This... this power is terrifying! Is it the latest killing Spirit Artifact developed in Gu Jinlai, or a treasure he obtained from the Aries Star Palace? Investigate! We must find out the truth at all costs!"

These forces are surging forth.

Some even risked the fact that the demon gods' personal guards from Gu Jinlai were still hunting down the remnants of Dragon Sparrow Manor, and infiltrated the battlefield just to get firsthand information.

After all, that kind of power is too terrifying.

If we can't figure this out, we can't stop Longque Manor, and neither can the sect behind them.

The demon's personal guards pursued them for dozens of kilometers.

The 1,300-plus demon god guards, the weakest of whom possessed combat power comparable to the Gang Condensing Qi Realm, along with dozens of Spirit Refining, the flying swords of the five Spirit Transformation, and Xin Tianqi, Primordial Spirit True Lord, flying back and forth in the sky, left the heavily damaged Dragon Sparrow Manor experts utterly powerless to resist.

It should be understood that although that attack Gu Jinlai only directly killed four or five hundred people, most of the survivors suffered serious injuries. Those who were truly unharmed were probably only a handful of dozens in the very periphery.

In this situation, how could they possibly resist the relentless pursuit of the demon god's personal guards, who were in full force and ready to go?

In the ensuing battle, the three Primordial Spirit True Lord, thirteen Spirit Transformation Grand Cultivators, and dozens of Spirit Refining True Person who had broken out of Dragon Roar City were all slaughtered.

The Three Primordial Spirit True Lord...

Huo Yuqing needs no further explanation.

That was equivalent to a small tactical nuclear bomb detonating just a dozen meters away from her, instantly obliterating her.

Long Xiangtian, who was in a hurry to rescue Huo Yuqing and was relatively close by, was also not spared.

Ye Qianqiu was the only one left. Although he did not die from that attack, he was knocked away by Gu Jinlai completed his status reset, and was pressed to the ground. He did not have time to fly into the void and was killed.

Otherwise, Gu Jinlai that he has lost the Cheng Ying Sword and lacks the energy for flight, if he were to actually ascend into the void, he would have a very good chance of escaping back to Long Xiao City.

Although they couldn't defend the city, they could at least escape with the core essence of Dragon Sparrow Manor's heritage.

And now...

Of the decision-makers at Longque Manor, apart from a few Yin Spirit cultivators who hadn't participated in the battle but were instead attacked by Spirit Transformation, the entire army was wiped out.

The group pursued and killed their way to the outskirts of Dragon Roar City.

At this moment, Gu Chifeng, Xin Tianqi, Cheng Wanli, Lu Zhanfeng and others gradually gathered in front of Gu Jinlai.

"Lord of Guzhou!"

"Supreme Elder!"

"Ancestor!"

Everyone looked at Gu Jinlai, who had changed back into his original spirit armor, with burning passion in their eyes.

Without further ado, he waved his hand and declared, "Break the city! Gu Jinlai this day forward, Dragon Sparrow Manor will cease to exist!"

(If this book were written from the perspective of an ordinary person, the first map would be a county town like Huayin County. Given the protagonist's ability to defeat enemies of higher levels, he would be practically invincible once he reaches the Gang Condensing Realm. Then, the map would be changed to Changjun City, where the protagonist's martial arts limit would be Spirit Refining. Then, the map would be changed again, perhaps to the Star Province War? The Tiannan Conflict? The Qiantian Storm?)
