Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 480 - 362 Target Arsenal_2
Gu Chen’s words startled Luo Feng, who immediately said, "Wait a moment, let me tell you, you need to calm down. Regardless of how strong Xu Tianying and Yuan Xiong are, according to what I know, the people from the six great saint lands who have come this time include two elders from the Vault of Sky Sword Sect. The elders’ strength is extraordinary, far beyond that of Jiangzhou’s innate warriors.
They may even be in the midst of refining their divine sense, just one step away from ascending to the Spiritual Enlightenment. Their power is incredibly pure, and they have certainly mastered two or even three Earthly Martial Skills."
In the six great saint lands, Earthly Martial Skills are indeed rare but not scarce.
Moreover, the martial techniques from the saint lands are all inherited from ancient times, powerful in strength. The power of an elder from the saint lands absolutely cannot be discussed in the same breath as those innate warriors of Jiangzhou.
Whether it’s in cultivation, body strength, or mental fortitude, they far surpass the grandmasters of Jiangzhou’s innate realm.
Gu Chen was well aware of all these facts, but he had confidence in his own strength and did not believe that he would be inferior to the elders of the saint lands.

As long as he did not have to face a top grandmaster who had reached the realm of Martial Enlightenment, Gu Chen had the confidence that he could fight and prevail.
After all, he also had many trump cards up his sleeve. Even if he were to face a mighty Martial Enlightenment expert, Gu Chen was confident he could emerge unscathed.
Seeing Gu Chen’s demeanor, Luo Feng knew that, although his words had been heard, Gu Chen was still going to proceed.
Having known Gu Chen for a while, Luo Feng was aware that Gu Chen wouldn’t take action without certainty, and once he had made a decision, it’d be very unlikely for him to change his mind. This was an outside expression of Gu Chen’s strong will.
"Tell me the exact location," Gu Chen said.
Seeing this, Luo Feng could only sigh softly and informed Gu Chen of the specific location of the Arsenal’s branch in Jiangzhou.
After obtaining the location, Gu Chen’s eyes hardened, and his expression turned cold as he said, "No matter who wants to strike at me, if they dare stretch out their claws, I’ll chop them all off without sparing a single one!"
…
In Jiangzhou, within the headquarters of the Arsenal, four innate realm grandmasters who had reached the great circle were present at this moment. Stay updated via novelbuddy
Two of them were the Arsenal’s leader, Xu Tianying, and the head of the Mysterious Pill Workshop, Yuan Xiong.
The other two were middle-aged men, with sharp auras and prideful gazes, and each carried a long sword on his back. These were two sword repairers from the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, one of the six great saint lands!
At this moment, these two individuals were seated at the head of the hall, while the Arsenal’s leader and the head of the Mysterious Pill Workshop, although they were also innate realm grandmasters, had to stand obediently below.
This was a reflection of the disparities in status and identity. Both the Arsenal and the Mysterious Pill Workshop had reached their current positions with the support of the six great saint lands. Without the support of the six great saint lands, they could not have achieved this.
Even Xu Tianying and Yuan Xiong themselves would not have reached the great circle of the innate realm, becoming innate realm grandmasters admired by thousands.
Elder Xi, Master Hu, please wait a moment. It won’t be long before the news of Gu Chen’s death will spread throughout the world," said Xu Tianying and Yuan Xiong, respectfully standing below, addressing the two elders.
The reason they were here was that they had heard that Xi Jie and Hu Wei of the Vault of Sky Sword Sect had descended the mountain with the intention to kill Gu Chen. Upon learning this news, they rushed to Jiangzhou and told the two elders that they had already sent men to deal with Gu Chen.
After all, in the eyes of Xu Tianying and Hu Wei, this was also an opportunity to make a name for themselves. With nine innate realm grandmasters taking action, there was no reason for Gu Chen to escape unscathed.
"That Gu Chen is audacious and insolent, not recognizing what’s good for him. He not only shows disrespect to the six great saint lands but even dared to make three great saint lands bleed, which truly calls for execution," said Xu Tianying and Yuan Xong in a stern voice. "Elder Xi and Master Hu can be at ease. In a short while, we will come before you two with Gu Chen’s head.
It’s just a pity that we were not present at that time; otherwise, we definitely would have killed that scoundrel with one palm and left him with no place for burial."
Xi Jie and Hu Wei sat at the head of the great hall and slightly nodded upon hearing these words.
After learning about the death of Yuwen Wind and two others, the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, Mount Tianzhu, and Burning Heaven Valley were all enraged. It had been many years since the saint lands had suffered such losses.
Few people in the world dared to take action against the saint lands, especially after they found out the person responsible was just a young man who had recently broken through to the innate realm, which angered the upper echelons of the three great saint lands even more.
Eventually, after some discussion, it was decided that the Vault of Sky Sword Sect would send people down the mountain to execute Gu Chen, bringing his head back to the saint lands to appease their anger.
In the Vault of Sky Sword Sect’s view, Gu Chen was merely a fresh breakthrough to the innate realm, and no matter how talented he was, dispatching two innate realm elders who had reached the great circle was more than enough.
In fact, Xi Jie and Hu Wei didn’t take Gu Chen seriously at all. In their eyes, even if Gu Chen had reached the innate realm, he was still just a junior and a mere wave of their hands could deal with him.
But since the Arsenal and the Mysterious Pill Workshop were willing to take on this task, it would save them some effort, so they had no objections.
"This child indeed dares greatly. A newcomer to the innate realm dares to disrespect the saint lands. This is still the first in thousands of years in Jiangzhou," said Xi Jie lightly.
Hearing his words, the Arsenal’s leader Xu Tianying quickly said, "This child is just clamoring for attention. With a bit of strength, he acts recklessly, thinking that Da Xia is his support and truly fearing neither heaven nor earth. When the saint lands are angered, who under heaven can protect him?"
The head of the Mysterious Pill Workshop, Yuan Xiong, also said, "Exactly. With the strength of the saint lands, crushing Gu Chen is as easy as flipping one’s hand."
At this moment, Hu Wei spoke coldly, "It seems the saint lands have been low-key for too long. People have forgotten the majesty of the saint lands. First, there was that so-called Emperor of Da Xia, and now this junior. In my opinion, we might as well destroy Da Xia, slaughter a million lives, to serve as a warning to others. The dignity of the saint lands cannot be provoked!"
It was evident that Hu Wei was extremely ruthless, desiring not only to eradicate Da Xia but even to massacre its civilians, which was exceptionally excessive.
"You know, now is not the time. The saint lands have more important matters to attend to. This is only considered Da Xia’s luck. However, this Gu Chen, due to his disrespect towards the saint lands, must die," said Xi Jie, sentencing Gu Chen to death in a few words.
Upon hearing Hu Wei’s murderous words, Xu Tianying and Yuan Xiong also felt a surge of fear. They didn’t think these were just empty threats from Hu Wei. They, who often dealt with the six great saint lands, knew that among them, especially the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, Mount Tianzhu, and Burning Heaven Valley, would indeed be capable of such actions.
Suddenly, a warrior walked in, bowing his body, and approached the Arsenal’s leader Xu Tianying’s ear. His face was somewhat panicked as he reported a piece of news in a low voice.
"What did you say? All of them are dead?!"
