Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 1538 - 378 Late Primordial Realm

The towering Karma Fire burned fiercely, such that even the most formidable beings would respect and keep their distance. In this moment, everyone fell silent.

Tianhuo Old Man’s expression was slightly solemn as he looked at Meng Sheng. He originally thought Gu Chen would be his biggest competitor this time, but never expected that another formidable being would emerge from halfway.

Even the renowned Gu Chen, almost unmatched in the upper realm, who had slain the incarnations of those in the God Realm, was killed by this adversary.

"It seems that there are indeed crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the upper realm. The command from the Holy Master to hide our presence and infiltrate the major forces was more correct than ever," Tianhuo Old Man muttered to himself.

At the same time, the death of Gu Chen represented an unbearable and enormous loss for many in the upper realm.

"Was my hand too heavy?" Meng Sheng said with a smile as he looked towards Ren Bu and Tuo Sang Qin.

The two remained aloof, and the jet-black-skinned Tuo Sang Qin said, "Originally, I thought that this so-called number one monster of all ages would have some strength to sustain him for a while, but who could have thought he would be so easily defeated."

Hearing this, the numerous formidable beings around all looked at the trio of Meng Sheng with unease.

They had all witnessed the strength of the Karma Fire. Gu Chen, who had even slain God Realm incarnations, was no match, let alone themselves.

Of course, another reason was that Gu Chen was laden with heavy karma. But as mighty beings of the Primordial Realm, who among them didn’t have karma or hadn’t committed killings?

That was unrealistic.

Moreover, if Meng Sheng alone was this powerful, then the yet-to-act Ren Bu and Tuo Sang Qin would certainly not be far behind.

After all, the perceptions of these powerful beings were keen; they realized that the relationship between the three was equal, which was incredibly astonishing!

"It seems I still need to remain patient for a while longer," Tianhuo Old Man thought secretly. He had originally intended to devour all the mighty beings that appeared on the island this time.

But the strength of Meng Sheng and the others made him retract that thought.

"It seems the places for the Innate Origin Pool have already been decided between us three," Meng Sheng glanced at the formidable beings around him.

In fact, he hadn’t expected that Gu Chen’s sins would be so profound that he would be dealt with in a single move.

It could only be said that one who brings about their own destruction cannot be saved.

"Why hasn’t the Karma Fire extinguished yet?" At that moment, Ren Bu, clad in a red kasaya, spoke up with a slight frown.

"Eh?" Even Meng Sheng emitted a light gasp, detecting something amiss.

For in theory, such an intense Karma Fire should have burned Gu Chen to ashes instantly.

And at the same time, the Karma Fire would have extinguished, not continue as it now appeared.

"Could it be that he’s not dead?" This thought caused Meng Sheng’s brow to furrow.

"It’s impossible. With such an intense Karma Fire, unless one with the God Realm’s supreme Dao could resist, death is certain. How can he withstand it for so long?" Meng Sheng’s expression grew more serious.

"No matter, it’s just burning longer than usual. We just need to wait quietly," Ren Bu said.

"Yes," Meng Sheng nodded.

But in the next moment, a figure radiating dazzling light all over, charged out from the deep red sea of fire and arrived in front of Meng Sheng in an instant.

Boom!

An unmatched fist imprint, seemingly powerful enough to shake the myriad realms, rapidly enlarged in Meng Sheng’s pupils. He felt a suffocating sense of impending demise, sending shivers down his body.

Thump!

At this critical moment, Ren Bu and Tuo Sang Qin, who were quick to react, struck out instantly, helping Meng Sheng block this attack.

Crackle and pop!

Their bodies trembled, as if struck by lightning, internal explosive noises transmitted from within, as if they were about to burst open, extremely horrifying, while traces of blood trickled from the corners of their mouths.

"How is this possible?!" Meng Sheng looked at the brilliant, godly figure before him, shocked to his core.

The surrounding formidable beings were also startled, never expecting that even such intense Karma Fire could not vanquish Gu Chen. Had he really become comparable to those of the God Realm?

Tianhuo Old Man was also shaken, realizing he had underestimated Gu Chen, a sense of crisis welling up in his heart.

At this moment, Gu Chen radiated brilliant light, with endless sacred light flowing over his body, standing loftily like a war god descended from the heavens, looking down onto Meng Sheng and the others.

"Mere Karma Fire, you wish to contend against me? You’re just a group of dead men. I have killed them once, and I can surely kill them a second time!" Gu Chen, standing in midair, spoke coldly, his voice resonant, like swords clashing in symphony.

The Karma Fire burned his flesh and would also lure countless vengeful spirits of those killed by Gu Chen to attack his spirit. Regrettably, this was futile against him.

"It’s impossible. No one can escape the judgement of the Karma Fire!" Meng Sheng shouted, his face full of disbelief.

"There is nothing impossible in this world. I send you on your way!" Gu Chen rebuked, striking forth. His fist imprint was dazzingly bright, many times more so than the sun, exploding with light as if shattering an immeasurable universe, with towering divine might pouring forth!

"Karma Fire, burn!" Seeing this, Meng Sheng’s pupils contracted, unwilling to retreat. The flame mark on his forehead shone, summoning deep red flames attempting to burn Gu Chen to death.

However, for some unknown reason, a God Realm seemed to manifest faintly around Gu Chen, completely blocking the deep red Karma Fire from reaching him.

"What power is this?!" Meng Sheng cried out, puzzled and unable to comprehend how their strongest technique from Karma Fire Palace could be broken so easily.

"Perish!"

At that time, Ren Bu, clad in the red kasaya not far away, roared. He used the Lion’s Roar, terrifying sound waves transforming into tangible ripples, as if destroying all eight directions of the world, striking towards Gu Chen.
