The Demon Cultivator of the Sword

Chapter 58: The Seventh Night

Also shocked was Guo Lanyue, the deacon of Lanyue Tower. She was just an ordinary member of the deacons of Lanyue Tower and had only met the owner of Lanyue Tower a few times. Naturally, she didn't know that Lanyue Tower was a branch of Xiewang Tower. Not only did she not know, but the other members of the Seven Nights except Gu Yuan, Murong Qingcheng and Sikong Sheng also didn't know.

Guo Lanyue had always thought that, except for Sikong Sheng, who won the first place on the Hidden Dragon List in the previous session, the gap between the other Seven Nights members would not be outrageously large.

But now it seems that the gap between the members of Qiye is ten times larger than she imagined.

An ordinary warrior at the peak of the middle stage of Bao Yuan Realm is definitely no match for Qi Ye. Even if he is in the late stage of Bao Yuan Realm, the opponent is still able to fight.

Even as powerful as the Seventh Night is, he is no match for Gu Yuan in just one move. It is hard to imagine how the gap between these Seventh Night is so huge.

The gap in strength between the first three nights and the last four nights increased drastically.

But it’s also good this way. The stronger the members of Qiye are, the more famous their Lanyue Tower will become in Nanzhuo Region, and the more talents they can attract.

In fact, it cannot be blamed on Guo Lanyue for misjudging the gap between Qiye and him. Her own strength is not bad among the Baoyuan realm warriors, but it is enough to be on par with those ordinary Baoyuan realm late stage warriors in the world.

But genius often cannot be described by common sense. Only when you stand high enough can you see farther.

Excluding the sword intent, with the same level of cultivation, Gu Yuan's martial arts realm and artistic conception are more prominent. Not to mention the perfect Swift Wind Demon Slash and the already somewhat promising Soul-Snatching, the Soul-Captivating alone is one or two times more powerful than the average high-level earth-level martial arts. It would be strange if the Seventh Night could block one of Gu Yuan's moves.

boom!
He crashed heavily into a rockery by the lake, and the Seventh Night fell into the rockery, creating a human-shaped hole. The strong sword energy vented in all directions, cutting the rockery into pieces, and sword marks were everywhere.

After spitting out blood again, Qiqi Ye fainted. Guo Lanyue quickly had him taken out and moved to a nearby yard to recuperate.

Seeing the Seventh Night in such a state, the Sixth Night looked at Gu Yuan in horror. He had originally planned to challenge Gu Yuan. After all, he and the Seventh Night were at the bottom of the Seven Nights and might be eliminated one day, so he had always wanted to strive for the top. Fortunately, the Seventh Night took the lead and challenged the Third Night, otherwise he would be the unlucky one.

At this moment, let alone challenging Gu Yuan, I don’t even have the courage to face Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan glanced at the Sixth Night. Before the Seventh Night challenged him, he seemed to be whispering with the other party. It seemed that they were discussing who would challenge him first.

Feeling Gu Yuan's oppressive gaze, Di Liu Ye quickly turned his head away and did not look at Gu Yuan, his palms full of sweat.

"On the third night, although I know I am no match for you, I want to know how big the gap is between us. How about we have a competition?"

At this moment, the heroic Fifth Night stood up.

She, the Fourth Night, the Sixth Night and the Seventh Night did not come from any sect, but were geniuses cultivated by Lanyue Tower.

So we have discussed it a long time ago.

The fourth night's strength was similar to hers, and in the confrontation a few days ago, he only defeated her by one move.

Only the third and second nights were still unclear.

As for the first night, it was already beyond their level.

So even though she knew she couldn't win, she still had to fight Gu Yuan, and the same went for Murong Qingcheng.

"it is good."

This time, Gu Yuan showed enough respect to the Fifth Night. He didn't respect the Seventh Night before because the Seventh Night didn't respect him first, so he didn't need to respect the Seventh Night. He killed the Seventh Night instantly with one sword, making him temporarily unable to move, and not causing serious damage, which was already a great respect for Lanyue Tower.

Soon, the two men started fighting in the middle of the flat ground in front of the pavilion.

Although Diwu Ye, as a woman, looks very weak, she is very masculine and violent in combat. Her weapon is a pair of inferior-grade treasured ferocious boxing gloves. She raises her slender right arm, bends her upper body slightly, and punches out. Dozens or even hundreds of fist shadows fill the air.

Gu Yuan did not use top-level Earth-grade martial arts to bully others anymore, and chose to fight the enemy with the Eclipse Sword Technique. Even so, he only used 20% of his sword intent and was able to suppress Diwu Ye, who was using high-level Earth-grade martial arts.

With one sword strike, the dense and opaque scorching sword net easily defeated all the fist shadows and covered the Fifth Night.

"broken!"

The fifth night's eyes flashed like lightning, and his arms suddenly disappeared, followed by more fist shadows.

The sword net instantly disintegrated under the bombardment of the fist shadow, but it did not melt. Instead, it turned into sword threads that wandered in the void and passed through the fist shadow of the fifth night.

"His artistic conception has grown again."

Murong Qingcheng narrowed her beautiful eyes and recognized at a glance that this was the Fire Eclipse Sun that Gu Yuan used to defeat Teng Mo on the Hidden Dragon List. It was just over half a year ago. Gu Yuan's state of mind of fire and cloud had obviously increased a lot. In terms of state of mind alone, he was no less than Yan Chihuo from the previous session.

Puff puff!
It was too late for the Fifth Night to dodge, so he could only draw back his fists and attack instead of defend. But the sword thread was moving too fast, and after a series of bubbles bursting, the Fifth Night's protective Qi was pierced through.

Fortunately, Gu Yuan showed mercy and controlled the sword thread to bypass her body, otherwise her ending would not be much better than that of the Seventh Night.

Even so, the sword intent contained in the sword thread still made the blood in Diwu Ye's body boil.

She frowned palely and looked at Gu Yuan: "I lost, not only to your fighting power, but also to your skills."

Gu Yuan said: "What's wrong?"

"I heard that you are only fifteen years old, how come you seem to have studied swordsmanship for decades? Although I have never fought with Yi Ye, I have seen him fight against a peak deacon in the late Bao Yuan realm at the headquarters. In terms of skills, he definitely cannot surpass you. Besides, apart from martial arts, your strength should be more than that, right?"

Gu Yuan knew what the other party was talking about. After all, his sword intent had only reached 40% not long ago, and he was still unable to hide it perfectly.

As for why he hid his sword intent, in addition to preventing himself from being targeted by bad people one day, there was also the factor of enjoying fighting on the same level.

In a situation where it is not a life-and-death fight, defeating an opponent with the same level of strength will give you a greater sense of accomplishment. It will also allow you to see your own shortcomings and the shining points of your opponent.

Play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, so as to constantly improve yourself.

Make yourself stronger step by step.

Gu Yuan smiled and said, "Who knows. But when it comes to skills, I do have some personal opinions."

"Please teach me!" Diwu Ye clasped his hands and asked humbly. The others also looked at Gu Yuan seriously, hoping to gain something from his words. Murong Qingcheng was no exception.
