Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 700 Gu Xu: Two years later, I passed away?! (asking for monthly votes)

"Sir, it's your turn now."

After the monks and common people in front dispersed, Li Yun turned slightly and looked respectfully at the young man in green beside him.

Two years ago, Gu Xu did not say a word, but just took a step forward and gently waved the Jinghong pen in his hand in the night sky.

In an instant, dots of orange-red light lit up on the dark sky, like a dream, like groups of fireflies dancing in the night.

The light spots quickly gathered together and gradually connected into one, like a huge net of fire, covering the formation that had not yet been built.

"boom--"

With a loud bang, a torrent of flames burst out from the center of the formation.

The majestic energy was like a ferocious beast, roaring and rushing in all directions. Wherever it passed, the stone pillars and runes instantly turned to ashes, looking as fragile as paper.

Although Li Yun had never seen Gu Xu perform this move in person, he had heard that this move originated from the "Seven Styles of Burning the Sky" created by Senior Chi Yangzi, called "Firefly Flame", which contains a powerful force to break order and destroy rules.

Although the young man in green who traveled through time and space had only reached the fourth level of cultivation, the "Firefly Flame" he displayed was enough to make Li Yun feel awe and shock from the bottom of his heart.

"Your Majesty is only at the fourth level, but you can perform such powerful moves. You are truly extraordinary!" He sighed silently in his heart.

However, the flames had not yet been completely extinguished, and the figure of the young man in green had slowly faded in the flames, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke and completely dissipated in the air.

Only Li Yun was left standing alone in the open space at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, watching the fire gradually dim and leaving behind a patch of black ash.

…………

Endless void.

Chi Shaoxian and Yu Mo received urgent messages from their two companions and hurried to the battlefield from the foot of Kunlun Mountain.

Just as they were preparing to join the battle, Chi Shaoxian suddenly frowned and his expression became extremely ugly.

"We've fallen into a trap!" He sent a telepathic message to the other "divine generals", "Ziwei just destroyed the 'Tower of Babel' that we had just built!"

"Ziwei? How is this possible?" Hearing his voice transmission, Jia Huan responded in disbelief, "Isn't Ziwei right in front of us? Moreover, doesn't the 'Tower of Babel' contain the power of 'Secret' authority? Even if he can split himself, it is impossible for him to find the exact location of the 'Tower of Babel', right?"

"Zi Wei, who destroyed the 'Tower of Babel', was only at the fourth level," Chi Shaoxian said slowly, "and I sensed a trace of 'Primordial Qi' from him. I guess Zi Wei must have used some means to send his past self to the vicinity of the 'Tower of Babel' and ruined our plan."

Chi Shaoxian is a formation master who entered the realm of Taoism through formations in the Lingxiao Realm. In many cases, formations are like an extension of his perception.

He could instantly detect any changes in any formation he set up, no matter what happened.

But today, the destruction of the "Tower of Babel" came too sudden and was really unexpected.

By the time Chi Shaoxian discovered what had happened, it was already too late to save the situation.

The "Ziwei" who came from the past and destroyed the formation was also forcibly sent away by an invisible force, making it impossible for him to catch the culprit and take revenge.

This made Chi Shaoxian sigh that Ziwei was still the same Ziwei from thousands of years ago, with comprehensive strategies, boldness and carefulness. He actually set up such a game, using his past self as a chess piece and completely taking the four of them into account.

No wonder even though he had been imprisoned in the Great Wilderness for thousands of years and had lost his previous cultivation, the Emperor still attached great importance to him and regarded him as a thorn in his side.

  "The formation is destroyed," Yu Mo was the first to break the solemn atmosphere among the four "divine generals", "The Emperor sent us to the Great Wilderness, and the most important task is to kill Ziwei. As long as Ziwei is dead, won't the Great Wilderness be at our disposal?

"As for Ye Huang, you don't have to be too afraid of her. As a species nurtured by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth in Lingxiao Realm, her strength will be greatly weakened as long as she leaves Lingxiao Realm. In addition, she was injured in the battle in the blood pool. Even if she has three powers, are we still afraid that we can't defeat her if we join forces?"

Yu Mo's proposal was quickly unanimously agreed upon by the other three.

They decided to put aside the matter of "Tower of Babel" for the time being, and work together to kill "Ziwei" and Yehuang in the void first.

…………

In Gu Xu's hand, the silver light on the star disk flickered a few times and then dimmed.

He had just used the two powers of "Time" and "Universe" to forcibly send his past self away from the "Tower of Babel".

This process is extremely thrilling.

If you are just a step slower, Chi Shaoxian will notice it and might even take direct action to stop you.

Although Gu Xu is already a seventh-level strong man, he is not sure whether his past self will affect his present self or cause chaos in time and space if something goes wrong while traveling through time and space.

At this moment, two black space cracks suddenly appeared like sharp lightning, carrying the gray-white Hunyuan Qi, and slashed straight towards Gu Xu's head, as if to tear him to pieces.

"Someone is manipulating space to deal with me!" He frowned and said to himself.

When he saw two figures suddenly appearing not far ahead, he immediately realized that it was the "divine general" Yu Mo who had stolen his "Qiankun" authority and used it against him.

From the memories of Emperor Ziwei and the mouth of Emperor Ye, Gu Xu learned that Yu Mo possessed the power of "stealing" and could temporarily steal the power of others for his own use.

However, the ability to "steal" has its limitations - it can only steal the authority of one person at a time. If you want to steal a new authority, you must give up the authority you have previously stolen.

Gu Xu flashed and dodged backwards immediately.

However, in the blink of an eye, Jia Huan's sword light followed closely, rushing from behind him like lightning, pointing directly at his heart.

At the same time, several runes suddenly appeared out of thin air under his feet, shining brightly and multiplying rapidly, like a rapidly spreading swarm of insects, scattering and weaving into a huge cage of light that trapped him tightly inside.

This was undoubtedly the formation that Chi Shaoxian had quietly set up.

The three "divine generals" temporarily put Ye Huang aside and turned their attacks towards him, intending to kill him completely in this dangerous void.

Gu Xu used the power of "Time" without hesitation, and his eyes turned into a deep indigo blue.

The grayish white "Hunyuan Qi" stagnated instantly, and then flowed back in the direction it came from at an extremely fast speed.

The formation runes under his feet changed accordingly. The light net that was originally spreading rapidly gradually shrank back to its initial position. The light of the runes gradually dimmed and finally disappeared completely into the void.

Jia Huan's sword tip retreated from Gu Xu's chest, and the green sword light slowly retracted into the distance. The two black cracks that tore through the space also healed quickly, as if they had never existed.

When the rewinding effect of "Time" ended, Gu Xu immediately seized the moment when everyone had not yet reacted and rushed to Chi Shaoxian's side unexpectedly. In his palm, the dark space cracks gathered and condensed, turning into an incomparably sharp long sword, piercing the chest of this formation master who was not good at fighting.

Faced with powerful enemies all around, he knew clearly that fighting alone against many would only put him in trouble, and the best strategy was to concentrate firepower and defeat them one by one.

The sword skills he had practiced diligently some time ago finally showed their power today.

Although he could not fight head-on with a strong man like Jia Huan who had proved his truth through martial arts and achieved the realm of True Lord, it was more than enough for him to deal a fatal blow to Chi Shaoxian by relying on the "subversion" method of defeating the strong with the weak.

Ye Huang noticed Gu Xu's actions and cooperated with him tacitly.

At this moment, she had transformed into a huge black dragon dozens of feet long. On the one hand, she used the field of Dao to restrain Sima Feng who was hiding in the "black tide", and on the other hand, she brought the power of the authority of "fear" upon Chi Shaoxian, instantly shocking his mind and making him stand there in a daze. His body seemed to be tightly bound by invisible shackles, unable to move at all.

At the same time, her dark golden Dao domain expanded rapidly, and in an instant, it enveloped Chi Shaoxian. Under the shining of the dark golden light, the defense of Chi Shaoxian's body was greatly weakened.

Seeing that Chi Shaoxian's body was about to be torn into pieces by the power of the space crack in Gu Xu's hand.

At this critical moment, Yu Mo's eyes suddenly flashed with indigo light, as if the starry Milky Way was flowing in them.

Time goes back again.

The Night Emperor's Dao domain shrank rapidly, and the golden light receded like a tide.

Gu Xu also retreated from Chi Shaoxian's side and returned to his original position. The black blade in his hand condensed from the space crack turned into nothingness and dissipated quietly.

When he came to his senses, although he had lost his memory before the time went back, based on the inexplicable sense of déjà vu, he immediately judged that Yu Mo had just stolen his "time" authority and went back in time.

Yu Mo himself had already stood in front of him, obviously intending to stop him from getting close to Chi Shaoxian again.

"It is definitely not a solution to keep wasting time like this." Gu Xu weighed the pros and cons in his mind, his eyes quickly scanning several enemies.

Yu Mo's "stealing" power is extremely tricky, especially his ability to steal the power of "time", which allows time to go back again and again, making the battle seem to fall into an endless cycle. Even if Gu Xu temporarily has an advantage, it will be wiped out in an instant.

He once again felt the suffocating feeling of oppression when he fought with the remaining soul of Emperor Ziwei on the top of Mount Kunlun two years ago, and finally understood the helplessness and disgust others felt when facing him.

“After all, my cultivation is only at the seventh level. Although I have mastered the two great powers of ‘Time’ and ‘Universe’, compared with these eighth level masters, my total amount of true essence and recovery speed are not as good as theirs.

“Plus, in this void, there is no incense power to replenish. If we continue to tangle with these powerful eighth-level masters who have authority for too long, we will inevitably fall into a disadvantage in the end.”

"I have to find a way to break this deadlock."

While thinking, he dodged the enemy's attacks and quickly hid in the Dao realm of the Night Emperor.

He thought, since the remaining soul of Emperor Ziwei could use the "star disk" to send his past self to a specific time and place, could he also use similar means to teleport his present self and his enemy to a battlefield that was more advantageous to him?

"I believe that my future self will be stronger than my current self," he thought silently, "If my future self saw that I was being besieged by Tai Shang Hao Tian's 'divine generals', he would definitely help me deal with them.

"In a few years, I may have already advanced to the eighth realm, or even entered the ninth realm. By then, these enemies will be much easier for me to deal with."

Thinking of this, he made a prompt decision, his consciousness immediately sank into the star disk, and began to manipulate time and space.

Emperor Ye noticed that Gu Xu seemed to have made up his mind, and without hesitation he swung his dragon claws, grabbed him, and hid him with the power of "secret".

Her huge black dragon body hovered in the endless void, and her scales flashed a cold light in the nothingness.

Each scale was as hard as a rock, blocking the sharp sword of Jia Huan and the killing formation set up by Chi Shaoxian.

The power of sword energy and formation impacted her body, causing ripples in the gray-white Hunyuan Qi, but she was like an unshakable black mountain, firmly protecting Gu Xu in her claws.

"Hey, this is the first time in my life that I risk my life for a human man," she secretly sighed in her heart, a complex flash in her golden eyes, "Gu Xu, you must do your best to help me rescue my sister in the future, don't let my efforts go to waste..."

…………

Above the star disk, the silvery-white starlight began to flicker regularly again.

The invisible line of cause and effect quickly extended in all directions with Gu Xu as the center point, quietly connecting Ye Huang and the four enemies.

Gu Xu discovered that if he wanted to travel through time and space with six powerful cultivators including himself, the time of travel would be severely limited - he could only travel to a time node two years later at most.

"Two years is just two years," he thought to himself, "Even if my strength doesn't improve much in two years, I can still be a big help and increase my chances of winning."

As the star disk began to shine brightly, the gray-white mist in front of the six people present suddenly became extremely thick, clouding their perception and making them unable to see each other clearly.

When the fog gradually dissipated and their vision became clear again, they were surprised to find that they were already above the city of Luojing in Dahuang.

The expressions of the four generals immediately became extremely solemn.

They knew that Luojing City was Gu Xu's home ground, and they would be in an extremely disadvantageous situation if they fought here. Realizing that the situation was not good, the four of them tore through the space without hesitation, turned around and fled out of the city.

At the same time, Gu Xu's expression also became gloomy.

  Because in the wilderness two years later, he was unable to find his future self through the thread of cause and effect!

He saw that the red imperial flag that had been hanging high had been taken down, and the walls, doorposts, and lintels in the imperial city were all hung with white silk, covering up the originally gorgeous and exquisite wood carvings and gold ornaments.

A white funeral banner with a black border was hung in a prominent position outside the palace gate.

The ministers took off their colorful silk official uniforms and put on white mourning clothes made of coarse cloth. They knelt in front of the Fengtian Hall, crying and mourning. The atmosphere was sad and solemn.

This is a national mourning.

"Two years later... I actually passed away?!!"

Seeing this scene, Gu Xu felt incredible.
