Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start

Looking at the prominent symbol on their chests, Gu Chen said coldly, "It\'s you again, Red Flame Demon Sect!"

This time, the Red Flame Demon Sect had dispatched, foremost among them, two emaciated old men whose skin resembled tree bark, covered with wrinkles. The pupils of one of them glowed with a wolf-like green light in the dark night, sending chills down one\'s spine just by looking.

They had laid an ambush on Gu Chen\'s inevitable route, and their intentions were self-evident.

"Attack!"

One of the gaunt old men said in a hoarse voice, and as the words fell, an extraordinarily strong aura surged from within him.

Gang Qi Stage, an inner Gangqi warrior!

And that wasn\'t all; the other old man\'s body also shook, and his vigorous aura burst forth.

To think there were two inner Gangqi warriors!

Gu Chen\'s brows furrowed; he had not expected the Red Flame Demon Sect to send two inner Gangqi warriors to deal with him.

The remaining Vajra Stage warriors did not step forward, but instead stood at a distance, each holding a crossbow aimed at Gu Chen.

It could be said that their preparations were very thorough.

Thud!

The twang of bowstrings resonated as five crossbow bolts, each about three feet long and carrying a terrifying penetrative force, flashed through the air, hurtling towards Gu Chen.

The power of each bolt was no less than a full-powered strike from a Vajra Stage warrior wielding a superior treasure weapon.

Boom!

At that moment, Gu Chen extended his limbs and used the Four Extremes Propping Heaven Fist, using his hands and feet to prop up a small world that belonged solely to him.

Bang!

The five crossbow bolts struck Gu Chen\'s fists, and upon contact, they were instantly reduced to powder.

"Wuu—"

Just then, one of the inner Gangqi old men from the demon sect pursed his lips and emitted a strange sound.

The next moment, Gu Chen felt an inexplicable force eroding him, causing his mind to reel from the intense pain.

This was the power of a demon!

The power was cold and eerie, far surpassing any spectral demon Gu Chen had encountered before.

"Demon-class demon!"

After suppressing the pain in his mind, Gu Chen looked solemnly towards the two gaunt old men.

The strength of a demon-class demon surpassed that of a human Vajra Stage warrior; even the weakest were comparable to the Gang Qi Stage!

The one who emitted the strange sound was the old man with the flickering green pupils. Seeing how quickly Gu Chen had recovered without sustaining damage, he felt somewhat astonished.

"Not bad, young one," his hoarse voice said, as he offered Gu Chen a cold smile.

The Red Flame Demon Sect had sent them, confident in their victory, believing that this time they would certainly capture Gu Chen.

The Red Flame Demon Sect also loathed Gu Chen to the extreme, not only for foiling their plans in Xu\'an County but also for slaughtering their prized disciple Lian Xing. The name Gu Chen had surely made it to the Red Flame Demon Sect\'s kill list.

With two inner Gangqi warriors, one of whom had merged with a demon-class demon, and a group of Vajra Stage warriors, using hidden weapons from the side to assist, the Red Flame Demon Sect believed that there was no way for Gu Chen to escape this time.

No matter how strong Gu Chen was, he could not possibly slip through their grasp.

The other old man sneered coldly, "Surrender now, kneel before us, and you shall not die."

This was to undermine Gu Chen\'s fighting spirit, for they had also heard of Gu Chen slaying an inner Gangqi warrior at the Yao Platform assembly. If they could capture Gu Chen without bloodshed, it would be the best outcome.

Gu Chen\'s eyes blazed fiercely. Kneeling down? That was absolutely impossible. What did it matter if there were two inner Gangqi warriors? He would fight!

The next moment, Gu Chen let out a long howl, a cry that shook heaven and earth; the air around him trembled slightly, rippling outwards like water waves.

Boom!

His majestic internal energy was released without restraint, his forceful aura blanketing the sky, making the surrounding air viscous and the heavy pressure weighing on everyone\'s hearts.

Especially for those Vajra Stage warriors, at this moment, they felt they were hardly able to breathe!

"Just as the rumors describe, possessing strength far beyond his current stage!" the two old men grinned sinisterly. They had come prepared, believing that Gu Chen would undoubtedly die today.

Boom!

With the unrestrained release of internal energy from within him, Gu Chen pushed the Pure Yang Wuji Gong to its limits, and a fiery red aura burst out of his pores, striking in all directions.

"Retreat!"

The two old men shouted harshly, and the Vajra Stage warriors of the Red Flame Demon Sect changed color, hastily retreating.

Whoosh!

A fierce and scorching aura converged in mid-air, forming a fiery palm print that struck towards the two men.

"Mere child\'s play!"

Watching the fiery palm print bear down from above, the two men joined forces and executed a high-grade martial art from the Red Flame Demon Sect.

With a loud bang, the two attacks collided and dissipated into nothingness.

At this moment, the Vajra Stage warriors holding crossbows launched another round of attacks at Gu Chen. They did not seek victory but to simply harass Gu Chen.

Gu Chen\'s eyes turned icy as he struck out with a palm across the air; intense heat blasted from his palm, transforming into streams of fiery red light, which snapped the incoming bolts in two, causing them to fall from mid-air.
