Fantasy: Starting with a bowl, you can exchange it for endless cultivation.

then.

Gu Chen looked at the people of the Qingyun Sword Sect.

"Next, it's your turn," Gu Chen sneered.

The members of the Qingyun Sword Sect were shocked to see this.

Gu Chen was satisfied after killing everyone in Haoran Academy.

They even wanted to kill them.

The scattered cultivators around them were well aware of this.

Gu Chen has gone berserk.

One more Qingyun Sword Sect wouldn't make a difference.

After all, he had killed the Sword Sect and the Haoran Academy before.

The Qingyun Sword Sect was the first to strike against Gu Chen today.

Gu Chen will definitely not let them go.

"You'd better think this through. You've already offended Haoran Academy to death. If you kill us, you won't be able to move an inch after you leave the secret realm. My Qingyun Sword Sect is located within the territory of Huangzhou. Our sect's experts can arrive at the entrance of the secret realm in an instant. If you kill us, you won't be able to escape!" Lin Feng threatened in a panic.

He was afraid.

If we don't use the threat of our sect to instill fear in Gu Chen...

Today, they will likely face certain death.

"I'm waiting," Gu Chen said coldly.

He slashed repeatedly with the Blood-Transforming Blade in his hand.

Combined with the secret technique of attacking the soul.

They quickly ended the lives of everyone in the Qingyun Sword Sect.

then.

Gu Chen went up and took all the items on their bodies—silver notes, pills, spiritual herbs, and precious weapons—and put them into his pocket.

A small portion of them had been robbed by themselves before.

Therefore, the income earned is not as high as that of Haoran Academy, but there are still a lot of resources available.

After doing all this, Gu Chen flew to the center of the lake and came to the four-turned other shore flower.

Looking up at the scattered cultivators and several small factions hiding and observing around him, he said, "Anyone who disagrees and wants to compete with me for this other shore flower..."

Upon hearing this, none of the scattered cultivators and members of several minor factions dared to answer.

Gu Chen's strength is evident to all.

Going out to fight Gu Chen at this moment would be tantamount to courting death.

Gu Chen killed people from both the Haoran Academy and the Qingyun Sword Sect.

Gu Chen wouldn't let them get away with it if they dared to try and take it.

Seeing that no one dared to come out and compete with him.

Gu Chen raised his hand and plucked the spider lily. It felt warm and smooth to the touch, and the nourishing power of his soul instantly enveloped his body. The pure medicinal power of the top-grade fourth-rank spiritual object flowed slowly, allowing his soul and cultivation to be nourished once again.

Then, he jumped into the lake and plundered the Xuan Shui Python's demon core, essence blood, scales, bones, and other precious demon beast materials, collecting them all.

Then his figure soared into the sky and flew away into the distance.

It disappeared into the distant sky not long after.

The scattered cultivators and a few members of small factions who had witnessed the battle watched Gu Chen depart into the distance.

So far!

The battle for control of the lake has come to a complete end!

The Qingyun Sword Sect and Haoran Academy were completely wiped out, and their grandmasters perished!

The ancient, exotic monster was forcefully suppressed and killed!

Gu Chen single-handedly crushed two top-tier forces, swept aside all powerful enemies, and obtained a top-grade fourth-rank spiritual herb, returning home with a full load!

In the distant mountains and forests, a Grandmaster-level expert from the Western Royal Court was unable to recover for a long time. The image in his mind was that of a figure standing in the center of the lake, with a blood-stained longsword and a solitary and aloof demeanor. He was filled with endless awe and shock.

He was a Grandmaster, and originally planned to be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, waiting for Gu Chen to fight the Haoran Academy and the Qingyun Sword Sect to a standstill.

They want to reap the benefits without lifting a finger.

Who would have thought that Gu Chen was so strong?

With his unpredictable and mysterious soul-attacking techniques, and terrifying blood-red sword moves, Gu Chen's strength had definitely reached the mid-stage of the Grandmaster realm.

If he dares to jump out in the end, he will surely die.

That was close.

He's playing it safe and choosing to play it safe and see how things go.

To save a life.

Gu Chen's strength is far beyond that of an ordinary grandmaster.

Today's battle will surely make this fierce rogue cultivator's reputation resound throughout the entire region!

The ensuing battle for the Spirit Gathering Pool was truly exciting.

These rogue cultivators' techniques and martial arts are extremely strange. They include top-tier body-refining divine arts for those with divine dynasty physiques, the Xuan Tie Crimson Copper Vajra Body, the Killing God One-Slash Slash from the Yamamoto family of the island nation, and the bloody Blood Transformation Blade Technique.

His true identity remains unknown.

This whole thing is eerie.

He dared to kill the Haoran Academy, the Qingyun Sword Sect, and these rogue cultivators. He was the one who annihilated the Sword Sect team in the Flame Mountains a few days ago.

This shows that he is not afraid of retaliation from these forces after leaving the secret realm.

The Qingyun Sword Sect and Haoran Academy are out of the question; although they are top-tier forces, they lack the presence of any terrestrial immortals.

But the Sword Sect is different; it is a transcendent force with three terrestrial immortals overseeing it.

He still dared to do that.

Are they really not afraid that the Sword Sect will hire a top expert skilled in divination to find out his identity and seek revenge?

This battle for the secret realm is likely to be anything but peaceful.

He needs to make sure the people of the Western Court are careful.

Meanwhile, Gu Chen...

He naturally had no idea that this battle for the other shore flower would once again wipe out the top-tier forces.

This caused a sensation in the region.

After leaving, Gu Chen found a secluded place.

Let's take stock of what we've gained from this secret realm.

More than 300,000 taels of silver.

More than 300 medicinal herbs.

There are more than sixty precious weapons.

The grades range from low-grade to top-grade Xuan level.

Unfortunately, there are no cultivation techniques or martial arts manuals.

Upon entering the secret realm, many factions know they will face the risk of being robbed.

They generally don't carry their family's techniques and martial arts with them.

However, Gu Chen currently has no shortage of cultivation techniques and martial arts.

What remains are elixirs.

Gu Chen counted the pills.

The harvest this time was quite substantial: twelve Grade 7 True Essence Pills, sixty-one Grade 6 Breakthrough Pills, thirty-one Grade 5 Transformation Pills, and twenty-one Grade 4 Great Golden Pills.

Gu Chen was excited.

There are already twenty-one Grade Four Golden Elixirs.

It is only 61 short of 82.

Then we'll take over the remaining members of the Yamamoto, Aso, and Abe families.

With the addition of the fourth-grade rare and precious Four-fold Other Shore Flower, he might have a chance to reach the Perfect Core Formation Realm before entering the Spirit Gathering Pool.

If one enters the Spirit Gathering Pool with the cultivation of a Perfect Core Formation Realm cultivator...

He would then have the opportunity to break through to the Grandmaster realm within the Spirit Gathering Pool.

Be nice.

He broke through to the Grandmaster level in the secret realm. Once he leaves, with the help of his resources, he might have a chance to reach the second-grade Sage level.

Gu Chen put away the resources he had on him.

They charged toward the last remaining group of members of the Yamamoto family from the island nation.

Because of the competition for the red spider lilies on this side of the lake.

The last remaining members of the Yamamoto family from the island nation moved a short distance.

I'm further away from him now.

Gu Chen chased them until evening before finally catching up with and killing them.

They were all below the Core Formation Realm, and didn't have many resources.

Gu Chen is not going to pursue it today.

Conserve your energy and build up your strength.

We'll settle accounts with the remaining large force from the island nation tomorrow.

Anyway, they've already gathered together.

If we go tomorrow, we can just wipe them all out at once.

Meanwhile, in the island nation...

The Yamamoto family, Abe family, Koizumi family, Shadow Clan, and Jonin have already gathered.

In the past two days, more members of the Yamamoto, Abe, and Aso families have been killed while alone.

Yamamoto Kishi was furious: "This Divine Dynasty force is utterly hateful. They only dare to attack our isolated individuals, and they don't dare to attack our large, assembled forces at all."

"If they don't make a move, we won't be able to catch them at all. Why don't you Abe and Aso families separate yourselves from our Yamamoto family first, and secretly subdue them? At the same time, have the strong members of the Shadow Division and the Jonin Division hide in the shadows. Once we lure them out, you can come and surround them. This way, we can definitely annihilate this Divine Dynasty force!"
