Chapter 353 -254: The Ancient City of Life_2
But unfortunately,
In front of the blood-red blade wind, any attempt to block it was insignificant.
In less than a breath,
The divine light vanished.
The blood-red blade wind fiercely slashed onto the Ancient City of Life, causing the ancient city to shatter with a loud boom.
With the shattering of the Ancient City of Life, as if some terrifying seal had been unlocked, a vast ancient aura revived, sweeping across the entire world in an instant.
A middle-aged cultivator in white robes slowly emerged from the void; his eyes were as profound as stars, and although his appearance seemed young, he exuded an aura of age and decay.
With each step he took, Spiritual Energy formed into lotus blossoms beneath his feet, and all manner of celestial phenomena emerged, with supreme Saintly Power dominating the universe.
“You’re quite good; if you don’t die, reaching the Great Saint Realm in the future is just a matter of time. What a pity—”
The white-robed cultivator looked at Gu Qingfeng, his gaze filled with both regret and a cold intent to kill.
Such a demon.
Had he not awakened, it might have been fine, but now that he had, he absolutely could not be allowed to live.
After all, with the Ancient City of Life shattered, he surely had to do something for the Ancient Desolate Sacred Land.
At this moment,
Qi Jun spoke in a respectful voice, “Now that the Ancient Desolate Sacred Land is under attack by powerful foes, with many cultivators slaughtered, I beseech Great Saint Xuan Yu to take action and avenge the fallen cultivators of the Sacred Land!”
“Are you the current Saint Master of the Ancient Desolate Sacred Land?”
The white-robed cultivator, who was also Great Saint Xuan Yu, gazed down at Qi Jun with a slight frown; he could clearly see that the one below was on his last legs.
Not to mention the severe depletion of essence blood, the injuries on his body were also severe; if it weren’t for the powerful life force of a Semi-Saint, he would have long been a dead man.
“Yes, Junior is!”
Qi Jun nodded in response.
Immediately,
Great Saint Xuan Yu flicked his finger, and a gentle stream of vitality entered Qi Jun’s body, stabilizing his previously collapsing physique almost instantly.
“Many thanks, Great Saint Xuan Yu!”
Qi Jun was full of gratitude, and at the same time, he was astonished by the techniques of a Great Saint Realm powerhouse, understanding very well the severity of his injuries.
Even with Spirit Pills and wondrous medicine in hand, there was no certainty of recovery.
However,
Great Saint Xuan Yu simply bestowed a surge of vital energy, thoroughly stabilizing his condition.
Although he wasn’t completely healed, he was at least no longer in mortal danger.
At that moment,
Great Saint Xuan Yu turned his attention back to Gu Qingfeng.
“Leave your name; you deserve to be remembered by me!”
“Why waste so many words—”
Gu Qingfeng looked at Great Saint Xuan Yu before him, his chest boiling with the urge to fight, and a cold murderous light shone in his eyes.
“I haven’t truly faced off with a Great Saint yet. Let me witness for myself the prowess of a Great Saint Realm powerhouse!”
“You will witness it.”
Great Saint Xuan Yu reached out his hand, and the God Slaying Spear fell into his grasp.
“Remember!”
“The one killing you today is Xuan Yu—of the Ancient Desolate Sacred Land—”
Before the words could finish, Great Saint Xuan Yu had already made his move, the God Slaying Spear unleashing terrifying power, with blood-red light filling the sky, the destructive force within it now fully erupting.
Such power was utterly different from when the Ancient Desolate Sacred Land had previously wielded the God Slaying Spear.
A terrifying feeling welled up from the depths of Gu Qingfeng’s heart, but it did not make him fear; instead, his fighting spirit grew even more intense, as if something within his bloodline was about to fully awaken.
“Battle!”
The Divine Emperor Tripod pressed heavily upon the void, both Great Saint Weapons unleashing their terrifying power. As they collided, the space for ten thousand miles around shattered, the massive shockwaves spreading in all directions, forcing even Tiaoist Palace Realm Cultivators to retreat.
“Thrilling!”

“Again!!”
Gu Qingfeng laughed out loud, his left hand wielding the Divine Emperor Tripod, and his right hand the Evil Slayer Blade. He multitasked, pushing both precious artifacts to their limits.
On the other side,
Great Saint Xuan Yu’s face was composed and calm, the God Slaying Spear below silently delivering death, with cold lights flashing, each beam of force enough to easily quell Dao Palace Great Powers, even those at the Saint Realm level.
…
As the two engaged in combat, such terrible fluctuations could be said to have rocked the entire Southern Domain, with many powerful figures who heard the news turning their attention to the battle in the void.
“This is Great Saint Xuan Yu of the Ancient Desolate Sacred Land from thirty thousand years ago; who would have thought he hadn’t fallen!”
“And who is the other person, actually able to contend with Great Saint Xuan Yu without falling short!?”
“Hiss, could this person also be a powerhouse of the Great Saint Realm?”
Many cultivators from the Southern Domain recognized the identity of Great Saint Xuan Yu at first glance, after all, the other party was a powerhouse of the Great Saint Realm from thirty thousand years ago. Even though he had sealed himself in slumber, many forces still had records of him.
By comparison,
they were truly puzzled about Gu Qingfeng.
However, it didn’t take long for other cultivators to reveal Gu Qingfeng’s identity.
Instantly,
all the powerhouses were shocked.
Divine Martial Dynasty’s Gu Qingfeng!
A cultivator who had not yet truly ascended as a Saint, yet could contend with a Great Saint, how could they not be astonished?
Not only were other cultivators shocked, but the cultivators from both Taixu Sacred Land and Ancient Desolate Sacred Land were also incredulous as they watched the battle between Gu Qingfeng and Great Saint Xuan Yu.
“Peak Master Fu, are you sure this person has not stepped into the Saint Realm?”
Yan Lingyun turned her head to look at Fu Shenjun beside her, her voice filled with disbelief.
Hearing this, Fu Shenjun could not help but give a bitter smile, “Whether he has become a Saint or not, can’t the Saint Master see for himself?”
“…”
This time, it was Yan Lingyun’s turn to be silent.
How could she not discern whether one was a Saint or not?
A strong person of the Saint Realm could master the powers of heaven and earth, which was the main feature after becoming a Saint, and also why Saints could dominate over those of the Dao Palace Realm.
So any Saint, even the weakest, could easily suppress a cultivator of the Daoist Palace Realm.
But now,
Gu Qingfeng had not become a Saint, yet he could fight on equal footing with Great Saint Xuan Yu, such strength naturally left Yan Lingyun shocked.
Even in ancient times, there were prodigies defying the heavens, but very few could achieve this.
Watching Gu Qingfeng become stronger the more he fought, Fu Shenjun seemed to think of something.
“Does Saint Master think, that Mr. Gu also possesses some kind of Divine Body?”
“It’s possible…”
Yan Lingyun nodded slightly.
If not for possessing a monstrous Divine Body, how could one achieve this?
But the problem is,
even if it’s a Divine Body genius, so what?
Throughout ancient and modern times, it’s not that there haven’t been Divine Bodies born, but never has it been heard that any Divine Body could defy the heavens to this extent, being able to contend with Saints while still in the Daoist Palace Realm.
For a moment,
Yan Lingyun’s mind flashed through the names of many Divine Bodies, but none could match Gu Qingfeng.
Indeed, there are Divine Bodies known for growing stronger as they fight, such as the legendary Fighting Saint Body, Overlord Divine Body, and so on, all top-notch Divine Bodies that grow stronger through combat.
But.
Even such Divine Bodies, powerful as they may be, have their limits.
Therefore,
Yan Lingyun was also uncertain about which Divine Body Gu Qingfeng possessed.
“Boom—”
The Divine Emperor Tripod shattered the void, a terrifying force struck fiercely upon the God Slaying Spear, the recoil made Great Saint Xuan Yu’s palm split open, and his figure couldn’t help but step back.
This was the first time Great Saint Xuan Yu had been forced to retreat in this battle.
Now, even the face of this Ancient Great Saint showed shock.
“What kind of Divine Body do you possess!!?”
What he thought was an ant easy to crush, turned out to be a fierce tiger; even with Great Saint Xuan Yu’s temperament, he now couldn’t suppress the sense of absurdity.
As for Great Saint Xuan Yu’s shock, Gu Qingfeng’s expression was only filled with killing intent.
“If this is the strength of the Great Saint Realm, then today, there is no need for the Ancient Desolate Sacred Land to exist!”
Fighting till now, Gu Qingfeng also felt a power in his flesh beginning to awaken, and this power was from the Ancient Immortal Body.
All this time,
the Ancient Immortal Body had not manifested much of its mystique.
Until this battle.
Gu Qingfeng truly unearthed the potential of the Ancient Immortal Body.
As the Ancient Immortal Body awakened, Gu Qingfeng swung the most pinnacle blade in his history, a terrifying slaughter force enveloped the heaven and earth, the blood-colored blade wind tore through the sky, reflecting in Great Saint Xuan Yu’s eyes.
