Chapter 162: Entering the Demonic State and Slaughtering, Long Xi's Impulse!

"Nine great demons?"

"Those who can be crowned with the name of great demon are likely all great demons of the Enlightenment Stage, right?"

In a town, Gu Jiangming looked at the text on the Seek Immortality Interface before him and could not help but frown.

Even for Gu Jiangming, nine great demons of the Enlightenment Stage were not a trouble that could be easily resolved; even though Gu Jiangming could enter the demonic state, if nine great demons attacked together, they would be extremely formidable opponents for him.

Even though Gu Jiangming knew he would face this situation sooner or later, being surrounded and killed by nine great demons only made him think that those guys of the Demon Race really thought highly of him!

"Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover; I haven't been without progress in this year or so."

"Since you want to kill me, don't blame me for burying you completely!"

"This era does not need so many powerful members of the Demon Race!"

A faint, cold light flickered in Gu Jiangming's pure black pupils; since he had already entered the demonic state, Gu Jiangming naturally had to possess the pride unique to a demon.

So what if nine great demons came to kill him? It was nothing more than a life-and-death struggle with those nine great demons.

It was just that Gu Jiangming was not prepared to wait in place and be captured.

【This day, you suddenly have a feeling in your heart, as if you sense in the dark that malice from Heaven and Earth is coming toward you.】

【You do not know where this malice comes from, but as you thought, it is nothing more than those members of the Demon Race who grew up eating humans!】

【Those members of the Demon Race grew up using the Human Race as food, while you allowed the humble Human Race to gain power; the more you think about it, the more you feel your ideas are correct.】

【As a demon, there is no panic in your heart, and you are even vaguely looking forward to this battle.】

【You are very strong, and you have not fought with anyone for a long time; you want to know to what extent your strength has reached, and those man-eating great demons are, in your view, the best whetstones.】

【You begin to take the initiative, and along your route, you begin to continuously eradicate all forces of the Demon Race.】

【More and more members of the Demon Race and more and more powerhouses of the Human Race begin to fix their eyes on you; even beyond humans and demons, there are powerhouses from other realms watching you.】

【You do not take these gazes to heart at all; you just continue doing your own thing.】

【Also on this day, after you walk into a valley, you feel a bone-chilling crisis; you have walked into an ambush set by the great demons.】

Gu Jiangming did not stop his steps because of the great demons' gazes, and in fact, Gu Jiangming was still continuously quickening his pace.

The Starfire Technique spread continuously, and more and more members of the Human Race began to practice the Starfire Technique; in the dark, Gu Jiangming also felt, felt that between this Heaven and Earth, there seemed to be some special power falling upon him.

But at this moment, Gu Jiangming could no longer be distracted by that special power; just as described on the Seek Immortality Interface, Gu Jiangming clearly felt, felt strands of bone-chilling killing intent impacting his soul.

"Come out!"

"Having laid an ambush for so long, the killing intent has almost condensed into substance; what are you still hiding for?"

Gu Jiangming stood in this valley, his gaze sweeping across all directions; his eyes were still pitch-black, but within that blackness, there was clearly an astonishing demonic intent brewing and gathering! "Red Lotus Demon Venerable?"

"Your strength is indeed powerful, but it is a pity that you have embarked on a path you should not have taken!"

Following Gu Jiangming's words, a bull-headed great demon eight or nine zhang tall slowly walked out from the front of the valley.

This bull-headed great demon only revealed its figure, and that height of eight or nine zhang was enough to make ordinary people feel horror and fear in their hearts the moment they saw it.

Such a massive great demon, in its movements and stillness, was truly like a mountain.

Every time its bull hooves landed, the earth would tremble and shudder.

And what was most shocking was that the bull horns on the bull demon's head were clearly adorned with skulls, and even its belt was made of skulls woven together.

Even though these skulls were already white bones, just the moment one saw these skulls, one could feel, feel the harrowing resentment and despair covering and shrouding them.

Before these skulls were skulls, every one of them was likely a powerhouse of the Human Race! "A path I should not have taken?"

Gu Jiangming looked at the bull demon with a terrifying physique before him, his expression unchanged.

After glancing at the bull demon twice, his gaze turned to the sky, to behind him, and even to the left and right.

After this bull demon appeared, a pig demon with fangs all over its face appeared behind Gu Jiangming; in the firmament, following a shrill cry, a massive eagle demon was showing off its power.

To Gu Jiangming's left was a wolf demon with a wolf's head, and in the valley to the right was a tiger demon carrying a fishy, foul wind.

In less than half a breath of time, a full five great demons of the Enlightenment Realm revealed their figures.

If someone were standing ten million meters high in the sky looking down at this moment, they would be able to clearly see, see that within a radius of a thousand miles, dark clouds were covering and shrouding everything.

The territory covered and shrouded by these dark clouds seemed to have turned into a piece of evil demon land.

Ordinary cultivators, let alone walking into this demon land, would likely feel boundless despair in their hearts just by approaching it, and subsequently lose their lives in that terror!

"A mere group of beasts, how dare you question the path I walk?"

Yet Gu Jiangming, placed within such demon land, seemed as if he did not feel the malice of these great demons that was almost about to turn into substance; he only gently stroked the Taicang Sword at his side.

At this moment, the Taicang Sword was also trembling slightly, as if the Taicang Sword was likewise looking forward to, looking forward to a slaughter!

As for Gu Jiangming, he was clearly in such a surrounded state, yet at this moment, Gu Jiangming carried an indescribable, lofty pride.

He was just standing there; he was clearly just standing there, yet he gave people a kind of lofty pride that looked down upon the world!

"Sharp-tongued!"

"I have never tasted the flesh and blood of a human of the Enlightenment Realm; it seems that today, we shall be able to satisfy our appetites!"

One by one, the terrifying great demons approached Gu Jiangming with their massive physiques; the one who spoke this time was the fanged pig demon standing behind Gu Jiangming.

This pig demon's face was inherently ferocious, and the moment it spoke, saliva dripped from the corners of its mouth! This pig demon was clearly not just talking; it was likely that it really wanted to taste the flesh and blood of Gu Jiangming, a human of the Enlightenment Realm! "Kill!!!" Black clouds pressed down on the city, and the city was about to be destroyed; the black clouds in the sky had long since turned this piece of land into a dark territory; Heaven and Earth lost their color in an instant, and the human world lost its light suddenly.

The five massive, ferocious, and evil intents no longer had any concealment at this moment, and Gu Jiangming no longer had any hesitation.

Without warning, and without prelude, the Taicang Sword in Gu Jiangming's hand was unsheathed in an instant; accompanying the moment the Taicang Sword was unsheathed, it was unknown which of the five great demons shouted the cry of slaughter.

【This day, when you walked to an unnamed valley, you encountered six great demons of the Enlightenment Stage who had long been in ambush.】

【These six great demons of the Enlightenment Stage covered the firmament and blocked everything, wanting to obscure all the scenery on this battlefield.】

【The great demons did not know whether you were alone, or if there were already countless humans among the Human Race who wanted to break the existing order just like you; after discussing it, they chose to seal off this piece of Heaven and Earth.】

【In this piece of Heaven and Earth, demonic Qi breeds, which has a great suppressive force on the Human Race.】

【It is just that these great demons calculated everything, but they did not calculate that from beginning to end, there was only you, and you were fighting alone.】

【They even more did not calculate that although they sealed off this piece of Heaven and Earth and even turned it into demon land to suppress the power of the Human Race, you are not only human, but also a demon—a demon known as the Demon Venerable!】

【The demon land that was supposed to assist the six great demons also nourished your power.】

【You and the six great demons begin to slaughter; this slaughter is not only to decide the victor, but also to determine who lives and who dies!】

【You reveal your demon body, and your strength has increased tremendously...】

Lines of text refreshed once again on the Seek Immortality Interface, but this time, Gu Jiangming could not spare any attention for anything on the Seek Immortality Interface; facing six great demons of the same cultivation realm as himself, even though Gu Jiangming had already unleashed his demon body, he was still fighting with great difficulty.

Yes, six great demons of the same realm!

Aside from the five great demons that had already appeared, a rat demon was lying in ambush within the soil beneath Gu Jiangming's feet.

This rat demon clearly mastered an extremely profound earth-escape technique; every time he appeared, he was always able to leave deep wounds on Gu Jiangming's body.

Even though Gu Jiangming had long been prepared for an ambush, facing six great demons of the same realm, Gu Jiangming was still in constant peril at this moment, and he did not even know when his body had become stained with blood.

Apart from Gu Jiangming, no one knew whether the blood staining Gu Jiangming's body was his own, or that of those great demons.

"What a pity..."

"The stride was still too large; if one could have planned it slowly, how could it have come to this?"

Between Heaven and Earth, there were countless powerhouses watching this battlefield, but these six great demons were merely the main force ambushing Gu Jiangming; there were three more great demons at the Enlightenment Stage maintaining this dark and gloomy grand formation.

Among the Human Race, a powerhouse who aspired to change the plight of the Human Race let out a long sigh after confirming that their gaze could not penetrate this grand formation.

Within Niankong Villa, Liu Moxuan also noticed at this moment the text refreshing on her Seek Immortality panel.

With almost no hesitation, Liu Moxuan wanted to set off for the battlefield where Gu Jiangming was located.

But as Liu Moxuan moved, the many Demon Race members who had been circling outside Niankong Villa also revealed their auras at this moment, deterring Liu Moxuan within Niankong Villa.

In the ancestral land of the Guhuoniao, Jiu Jiu also noticed the text on the Seek Immortality panel at this moment.

But after Jiu Jiu looked at the child in her womb, she did not immediately go to rescue Gu Jiangming.

It was not that Jiu Jiu did not care about Gu Jiangming, but after spending the Shushan Era together with Gu Jiangming, Jiu Jiu already possessed an indescribable confidence in Gu Jiangming.

Even if nine great demons were ambushing Gu Jiangming together, so what? In Jiu Jiu's view, her husband was invincible under Heaven; even if nine Enlightenment Stage great demons were ambushing Gu Jiangming, the one who would ultimately win would surely be Gu Jiangming.

On the other hand, Jiu Jiu, who was already pregnant, was experiencing a slight decline in her strength at this moment.

If she were to rashly participate in this battle, Jiu Jiu was somewhat worried about whether her daughter could still be born.

As for Wang Qinghe, she also noticed the text on the Seek Immortality Interface, but unlike Jiu Jiu, Wang Qinghe's current strength was not yet powerful enough; at least for the current Wang Qinghe, she was far from being able to intervene in Gu Jiangming's battle.

"No, I have to go save him!!!"

Unlike the others, the moment Long Xi in the Dragon Palace saw the text refreshing on the Seek Immortality Interface, she could no longer remain calm.

In just a brief moment, Long Xi made up her mind; she decided that no matter what, she had to go save Gu Jiangming.

"You cannot leave..."

Unfortunately, Long Xi had only just made a move when she was stopped by the old Dragon King.

The old Dragon King looked at his beloved daughter; although he did not know where Long Xi had learned the news that Gu Jiangming was being ambushed by nine great demons, the old Dragon King knew very well that Long Xi could not get involved in Gu Jiangming's affairs, and the Dragon Palace could not get involved either.

As the old Dragon King set up an increasingly tight defense, the look in Long Xi's eyes as she gazed at her father had become somewhat resentful.

"What he is doing is simply too big!"

"Does he think that by wearing a mask, there is truly no one in the entire world who can see through his identity?"

"I was able to know his identity; who knows how many others in the entire world can see through his identity!"

"He has done such great things, he has provoked all living beings under Heaven, and he even wants to break the order that has existed since ancient times; this is simply not something he can shoulder alone!"

"If you leave the Dragon Palace, you will die, and our entire Dragon Palace will even suffer a catastrophe!"

"You may resent me or hate me, but I cannot watch my own daughter go to her death and be buried with him."

"Likewise, I cannot watch you drag our entire Dragon Palace along with you!"

The old Dragon King also saw the look in Long Xi's eyes, but facing Long Xi's gaze, the old Dragon King was extremely firm this time.

From the old Dragon King's perspective, all he could foresee was Gu Jiangming's inevitable death.

He certainly could not let his precious daughter be buried with him, and even less could he allow his daughter to drag the entire Dragon Palace onto a path of opposing the world and the order for the sake of Gu Jiangming! (End of chapter)
