That is the gap in the operation of the technique, and it is also the only flaw.
"Push it into the alchemy furnace!"
Nie Shan shouted sharply.
The guards began to untie the girl from the stone pillar and roughly dragged her towards the alchemy furnace.
The elderly guard's hands were shaking so much that he couldn't untie the rope for a long time.
"Trash!"
Nie Shan kicked the guard away and took action himself.
"If you can't even do this well, what use do they have to you?"
The guard fell to the ground and couldn't bear to see the girl being dragged towards the alchemy furnace.
"Master, she and the others are still children."
"Shut up!"
Nie Shan shaking hands is a slap in the face.
"It is an honor for her and them to dedicate themselves to their father's great cause!"
Gu Sheng watched with cold eyes, murderous intent surging in his heart.
The oldest of these girls is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and the youngest is only eight or nine years old. At this moment, they are being turned into blood while still alive.
Clench your fists and dig your nails into your palms.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion gate.
"City Lord, have mercy!"
"Let my daughter go!"
"She is only twelve years old."
Hundreds of people broke through the guards and knelt on the edge of the square, kowtowing.
Most of them were old men and women. Their foreheads were bruised until blood flowed, but they still did not stop.
Qing Sheng City Lord frowned, a little impatient.
"Noisy."
Nie Shan understood immediately, turned around and scolded.
"Drive these untouchables out! Whoever dares to ask for mercy again will be served with a whip!"
The guards waved their long whips and rushed towards the people. The shadows of the whips came out and struck the flesh and blood, making a tooth-piercing "snap" sound.
The people screamed repeatedly, but still refused to retreat.
"My daughter!"
The woman hugged the guard's leg tightly.
"Please, let her go, I am willing to die for her!"
"Get away!"
The guard kicked the woman in the chest, and the sound of broken bones could be heard clearly.
The woman spurted out a mouthful of blood, but still didn't let go.
"Lan'er. Run quickly"
"Mother——!"
The girl who was called Lan'er cried heartbreakingly when she saw her mother's miserable state.
Gu Sheng It felt like a huge stone was pressing on his chest, making it difficult to breathe.
These people came to plead for mercy even though they knew they would die. This family affection reminded him of his sister.
If he hadn't been searching for his sister's whereabouts, he wouldn't have left the Holy Land and come to this Ten Thousand Ghosts Ridge area.
"Kill."
Qing Sheng City Lord suddenly spoke.
"Leave no one behind."
This order was like the death sentence, and the guards immediately became ten times more ruthless.
The long whip no longer just whips, but directly wraps around the people's necks and strangles them hard——
"Crack!"
The sounds of broken neck bones came and went, and the people fell down like wheat.
Someone tried to escape, but was stabbed in the back by the guard.
Blood dyed the edge of the square red, and the strong smell of blood even overshadowed the smell of the alchemy furnace.
"No! Dad!"
"Mother!"
"Grandpa!"
The tied girl and the others struggled like crazy when they saw their loved ones dying tragically.
The rope cut into the flesh, and blood flowed down the stone pillar, but no one paid attention.
Nie Shan looked at this miserable situation without mercy, but laughed.
"A group of ants dare to hinder my father's great cause! Killing mortals when cultivators are like trampling ants to death, how can they be punished by God?"
This sentence became the last straw for Gu Sheng.
"Click."
The iron rope binding Gu Sheng suddenly broke and fell to the ground with a soft sound.
The sound should have been drowned out by the screams, but it was strangely clearly audible.
"Huh?"
A nearby guard turned around and saw that Gu Sheng had broken free, but he just smiled contemptuously.
"Another one who doesn't know how to live or die."
Two Core Formation Realm guards came with long knives, the blades still dripping with the blood of the common people.
"Kneel down."
The guard on the left ordered.
"Otherwise, your life will be worse than death."
Gu Sheng ignored it, but turned around and started to untie the iron ropes of other cultivators.
"Seeking death!"
The two guards shouted angrily, Core Formation Realm's momentum completely exploded.
They formed a fistfight on the left and right, and the wind of fists roared towards Gu Sheng's back and thighs.
This is their usual tactic, first destroying the prisoner's ability to move, and then slowly torturing him.
When the other guards saw this, they didn't even bother to look.
This is just one more beating for another ignorant cultivator.
Later, he will still be used by the city lord to practice like others.
"Bang! Bang!"
Two muffled sounds sounded almost at the same time, like a fist hitting iron stone.
"Ah——!"
It was the screams of the guards. The two guards who took action were seen holding their fists and retreating, their finger bones already twisted and deformed.
But Gu Sheng didn't even turn his head and was still untying the chains of other cultivators.
"How is this possible?"
One of the guards stared.
"Lao Zhang and Lao Li's 'Bone Shattering Fist' can even cripple Golden Core cultivator, this kid."
The untied cultivator raised his head and said weakly to Gu Sheng.
"Fellow Daoist, leave quickly! Leave me alone! They."
Gu Sheng shook his head and continued to untie the next person.
"Stop talking and save your energy."
The two injured guards saw fear in each other's eyes.
As their duty lay, they gritted their teeth and charged forward again.
"Go to hell!"
This time, they used weapons.
A poison-quenched dagger and a mace struck at Gu Sheng's back and knees respectively, at extremely tricky angles.
Gu Sheng finally turned around, with a cold light in his eyes.
"Get lost."
A simple word, but it was like a thunderous explosion.
The attacks of the two guards came to an abrupt end, and their bodies seemed to be grasped by invisible hands, and they soared into the air uncontrollably.
"No, don't!"
They struggled in fear, but to no avail.
Gu Sheng With a wave of his hand, the two guards flew towards the huge alchemy furnace in the center of the square.
"Ah——!"
Amidst the shrill screams, the two fell into the alchemy furnace with green fire, and were instantly swallowed up by the mysterious fire, leaving not even ashes.
This scene caught Nie Shan's attention.
When he saw Gu Sheng's face clearly, his expression suddenly changed.
"It's you?!"
The blood in Qing Sheng City Lord's whole body was boiling, and his cold eyes locked on Gu Sheng.
"Shan'er, do you know this person?"
Nie Shan Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and his voice was trembling.
"Father, this is the cultivator that I kidnapped yesterday. I didn't expect it."
"Trash!"
Qing Sheng City Lord shouted angrily.
"I can't even stand a junior like Earth Palace Realm!"
Nie Shan fell to his knees.
"Father, calm down! Let's go and deal with him now, kid!"
He was afraid that his father would be punished, so he jumped up without waiting for a response and pulled out a cold spiritual sword from his waist.
The blade of the sword was green all over, with faint electric light flowing around it. It was obviously not an ordinary sword.
"Boy!"
Nie Shan pointed his sword at Gu Sheng, pretending to be calm.
"I let you escape yesterday, but today I will definitely destroy you!"
Gu Sheng happened to untie the last cultivator and stood up slowly after hearing this.
I originally wanted to force Qing Sheng City Lord to take action directly, but it would be a good idea to depose this arrogant young city lord first.
"Come."
Gu Sheng hooked his fingers and his tone was so contemptuous.
When has Nie Shan ever been humiliated like this?
Immediately his face turned red with anger, and the lightning on the spirit sword surged.
"Seeking death!"
"Master, be careful!"
The guard reminded.
"This person's physical strength is weird and cannot be used in close combat!"
Nie Shan Where can I hear it?
He has been pampered since he was a child, relying on his father's reputation to be domineering. How has he ever really met an opponent?
At this moment, seeing Gu Sheng despising himself so much, his anger had already gone to his head.
"Thunderous Sword Art!"
Nie Shan shouted violently, and the electric light on the spiritual sword suddenly turned into a thunder snake, with a harsh crackling sound, heading straight for Gu Sheng's face.
This is the Xuan-level swordsmanship that Qing Sheng City Lord bought for him at a huge price. Combined with this lightning attribute spiritual sword, its power is comparable to that of Earth-tier cultivation method.
Faced with this sharp blow, Gu Sheng did not retreat but advanced.
The two fingers of his right hand came together and clamped the tip of the incoming sword with great precision.
"What?!"
Nie Shan couldn't believe that his trick was caught so lightly.
What frightened him even more was that no matter how much he activated his spiritual power, the sword tip could not advance even half a minute, nor could it be withdrawn.
Gu Sheng's two fingers locked the spirit sword firmly.
"Fancy."
Gu Sheng snorted coldly and shook his wrist slightly.
"Crack!"
The priceless spiritual sword was broken with a sound, and the first half of the sword fell to the ground with a clang.
Nie Shan held the broken sword blankly.
"Shan'er, step back!"
Qing Sheng City Lord finally couldn't sit still anymore, and Heavenly Palace Realm's pressure exploded.
Sand and rocks flew in the square, and several guards who were closer were knocked away.
Gu Sheng felt an overwhelming pressure coming on him, but he was already prepared.
With this pressure, he appeared behind Nie Shan in a flash, and gently pressed his right hand on Nie Shan's Tianling Cap.
"No, don't"
Nie Shan's whole body was stiff, and he could feel a cold force invading from the top of his head, freezing the meridians wherever it passed.
"Junior, how dare you!"
Qing Sheng City Lord The canthus of the eyes is about to burst, and the robe automatically moves without wind.
"If you hurt a hair on my son's body, I will make sure you live and die!"
Gu Sheng The corner of his mouth raised slightly.
"Really?"
The five fingers suddenly closed together!
"Ah——!"
Nie Shan let out a scream that did not sound like a human voice, and blood oozed from the pores on his body.
He could clearly feel that the cultivation he had cultivated for decades was passing away like an ebbing tide, and the golden elixir in his dantian quickly dimmed and cracked into pieces.
"My own cultivation"
Nie Shan collapsed on the ground and touched his abdomen with trembling hands. The spiritual vortex that should have been there had disappeared.
"No, it's impossible."
Gu Sheng kicked him away and said coldly.
"Save your life and experience what it's like to be a mortal."
"Shan'er!"
Qing Sheng City Lord instantly appeared next to Nie Shan, and after checking, his face became extremely ferocious.
"How dare you destroy my son's cultivation!"
Heavenly Palace Realm The strong man's anger made the entire square tremble.
The ground cracked, stone pillars collapsed, and the tied girls screamed in terror.
Qing Sheng City Lord gently put down Nie Shan and stood up slowly.
His eyes had completely turned blood red, and the blood surrounding him had condensed into substance.
"I'm going to chop you up alive."
His voice was no longer hoarse, but became extremely sharp, like countless innocent souls screaming at the same time.
"Take your heart out and pay tribute to my son's cultivation!"
Nie Shan is his only bloodline and the successor he painstakingly cultivated, but now he has become a useless person!
"Little beast!"
"I will make it impossible for you to live or die!"
Heavenly Palace Realm's momentum exploded, with Qing Sheng City Lord as the center, the ground within a hundred feet radius was cracked.
Those cultivators who were rescued by Gu Sheng fled in fear, but were still blown away by the air waves.
Gu Sheng was the first to bear the brunt, and was shaken by the coercion. His hair was disheveled, and he staggered back more than ten steps before barely regaining his balance.
There was blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, and he looked miserable.
"Hahaha!"
Nie Shan struggled to get up, dragging his long sword and staggering towards Gu Sheng.
"Father, save his life! I want to chop off his limbs with my own hands!"
City Lord's Mansion Outside, those defenseless people all looked desperate.
Several kind-hearted old people even closed their eyes, unable to bear to see the tragic death of Gu Sheng.
Qing Sheng City Lord slowly raised his right hand, and the strong evil energy condensed on the fingertips, turning into five small bloody snakes, hissing.
"Don't worry, my father will spare him a breath."
Qing Sheng City Lord said coldly, grabbing Gu Sheng with his fingers.
"Nine Yin Soul Searching Hand!"
The five blood snakes swelled up in the storm and turned into five bloody pythons in the blink of an eye. They opened their bloody mouths and bit Gu Sheng.
Wherever the giant python passed, the ground was corroded into deep ravines, and even the air made a "chichi" sound, which was obviously highly poisonous.
Faced with this fatal blow, Gu Sheng was surprisingly calm.
He stood there, letting the strong wind blow his hair, with a sneer on his lips.
"There are so many people who want to kill me, and you still have to queue up."
"You keep talking even when you are about to die!"
Qing Sheng City Lord was so angry that he suddenly closed his fingers.
The five blood pythons merged instantly and turned into a bloody demonic cloud that covered the sky and suppressed Gu Sheng.
Before the magic cloud arrived, the terrifying pressure had already crushed most of the City Lord's Mansion's houses into powder. Those cultivators who tried to escape were also swept up into the air, letting out shrill screams.
Nie Shan opened his eyes in excitement, looking forward to the scene of Gu Sheng being swallowed by the magic cloud.
However, the next second, his expression froze.
Gu Sheng suddenly straightened his back, and the aura of embarrassment disappeared from his body.
There was a "cracking" sound inside the body, and the originally suppressed aura was rising steadily!
Earth Palace Realm early stage. Earth Palace Realm mid stage. Earth Palace Realm late stage!
"What?!"
Qing Sheng City Lord's pupils shrank suddenly, and for the first time, a look of shock appeared on his face.
"You are hiding your cultivation?!"
Nie Shan was so frightened that he sat down on the ground and dropped the long sword in his hand.
"No, it's impossible. Late Earth Palace Realm in his twenties?"
You know, even in resource-rich holy places, those who can reach Earth Palace Realm before the age of thirty are very rare.
And Gu Sheng looks like he is only in his early twenties, but he is already in the late stage of the Earth Palace Realm. Such talent is simply appalling!
Gu Sheng ignored their shock. He stamped his feet suddenly, and the golden light around him instantly broke away from Qing Sheng City Lord's coercive restraint.
"Now, it's my turn."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Sheng had disappeared from where he was.
Qing Sheng City Lord is Heavenly Palace Realm after all, and his spiritual consciousness immediately locked the position of Gu Sheng.
He is rushing towards me at an alarming speed!
"Seeking death!"
Qing Sheng City Lord quickly recovered from the shock, with some contempt in his eyes.
"Earth Palace Realm, you dare to get close?"
He turned his right hand, and a blood-red sword appeared in his hand.
The blade was engraved with ferocious faces, and there was blood-colored mist lingering around the blade. It was obviously a spiritual weapon of high quality.
"Father, don't kill him!"
Nie Shan shouted from behind.
"Leave it to me!"
Qing Sheng City Lord didn't look back.
"Don't worry, being a father will only destroy his limbs."
