171: Gu Liangyuan: The thief harmed me!

No matter how much the people outside the city cursed, General Xuanpeng had no intention of opening the gates.

A red glow flashed between heaven and earth, and the Nine Kill Sword swept past the city gate.

Blood splattered, and heads rolled!

Everyone outside the city was decapitated by that one sword!

Seeing this, General Xuanpeng, instead, let out a sigh of relief.

Everyone who knew he had abandoned the battle had died, leaving only the soldiers defending the city within the pass.

These soldiers looked at the dead bodies outside the city and secretly felt lucky.

Fortunately, they were assigned to defend the city; otherwise, there would surely be one more soul among the departed outside the city.

But what they didn't know was that they were already on General Xuanpeng's kill list.

General Xuanpeng turned his head to look at the remaining hundreds of soldiers, a cold glint flashing in his eyes:

"These people must die too. If you must blame someone, blame yourselves for not being as strong as me!"

"If there is an afterlife, I hope you can learn from the lessons of this life."

This is the sorrow of small figures; life and death are merely at the whim of the strong!

Gu Liangyuan, after killing tens of thousands of people, his killing intent gradually receded, and the red glow in his eyes faded, returning to a brief clarity.

He looked at General Xuanpeng inside the grand formation, then sensed his Great Vehicle experience card, which was less than five minutes, and turned to leave again.

As he turned, he secretly thought:

"When I, Gu Liangyuan, do things, I always eradicate the roots, but this grand formation is clearly stronger than the previous ones, and with the blessing of a Tribulation Transcendence Realm expert, it's difficult to break through in a short time."

"Although I am confident in breaking the formation within five minutes, how to escape has become a problem. It is not advisable to continue fighting."

"When I return, I must also learn from the Ancient Mo Dynasty and set up teleportation formations so that whether it's my Disciples or myself, if we encounter an insurmountable opponent, we can still have a Holy Land as a fallback."

"General Xuanpeng, you are my first, and absolutely my last, person I couldn't eradicate!"

"I remember you!"

Thinking of this, Gu Liangyuan suppressed the awkwardness of not being able to eradicate the roots in his heart and walked away.

However, even though he was ready to leave, the vexation in Gu Liangyuan's heart grew stronger and stronger!

Take a step back, and the sea is vast; endure for a moment, and the more you think, the angrier you get!

Damn it, I really want to kill him.

At the same time, on Wuqu Pass, General Xuanpeng looked at Gu Liangyuan, who turned and left, and let out a long breath.

This evil star finally left.

What a hearty battle it was.

Just then, a soft, effeminate male voice suddenly came from the sky:

"Villain, don't run!"

This sound made General Xuanpeng jump.

He suddenly realized how much psychological trauma the soldiers in the pass must have felt when he shouted that phrase earlier!

I finally managed to send this evil star away; if you want to court death, don't drag me along!

With anger, General Xuanpeng looked back.

He saw a soft, effeminate man dressed in white with flowers in his hair, appearing out of thin air behind him.

He recognized the newcomer; it was Xuan Hu General, one of the Ancient Mo Thirteen Generals.

This person's cultivation was the lowest among the Thirteen Generals, but he was resourceful and cunning like a fox.

Behind Xuan Hu, he also brought three hundred masked Cultivators.

These Cultivators were all dressed in uniform black, with only their two eyes exposed. If not seen with the naked eye, even with General Xuanpeng's cultivation, it would be difficult to detect them with Divine Sense.

Xuan Hu immediately spoke:

"General Xuanpeng, I have been sent by the Mo Emperor to assist you. Quickly open the city gate, do not let this fiend escape!"

General Xuanpeng: ...

Open the city gate?

Just you?

I couldn't defeat him, and you want me to go and offer my head?

Seeing that General Xuanpeng was unmoved, Xuan Hu spoke again:

"I have found his weakness. Quickly open the gate. If we fail to capture him, I will take full responsibility!"

General Xuanpeng was originally unwilling, but upon hearing Xuan Hu's words, he wavered.

Xuan Hu continued:

"I value my life more than you do. I wouldn't act without absolute certainty."

"If I succeed, we will share the credit."

Upon hearing this, General Xuanpeng was completely moved.

Capturing Gu Liangyuan was far more meritorious than forcing him to retreat.

He could gain such credit just by opening a city gate, and he wouldn't even have to bear the responsibility. Where could he find such a good deal?

General Xuanpeng gritted his teeth and decided to do it!

And so, he immediately opened the city gate.

After letting Xuan Hu out, he stood at the city gate, staring intently at Xuan Hu.

Should the situation on the field change, he would not hesitate to close the city gate.

Just as he had stopped those people before, he would also stop Xuan Hu outside the pass.

Looking back at Gu Liangyuan, he was already feeling annoyed that he couldn't kill General Xuanpeng.

A shout of "Villain, don't run!" made Gu Liangyuan unable to suppress the killing intent in his heart any longer.

At worst, he would use a Pseudo-Immortal Strike. Although it was a bit wasteful, if he didn't vent the anger in his chest, he wouldn't be at peace!

In the blink of an eye, his eyes turned crimson again!

He turned and took a step, arriving once more before Wuqu Pass.

He was met head-on by Xuan Hu General, who flew forward, and the three hundred Black Fox Soldiers behind him.

With a sweep of his Innate Divine Eyes, upon sensing the Xuan Hu General's Mahayana Peak cultivation, Gu Liangyuan not only did not underestimate him but felt a solemnity in his heart.

He didn't think that someone who could Cultivate to the Mahayana Peak was a fool. Given his recent feat of slaughtering Mahayana experts like dogs, an ordinary person would surely defend the pass without coming out.

But this person in front of him was heading straight for him.

Clearly, he had some unknown trump card.

And so, Gu Liangyuan raised the Mo Tan Kill in his hand, and all his magical power immediately poured into it!

"Die!"

He roared, swinging his halberd directly at Xuan Hu!

Nine Mahayana, eighteen Body Integration, and forty Void Refining level halberd generals moved with the halberd, all rushing towards Xuan Hu!

Even if Xuan Hu dodged Gu Liangyuan's strike, he would immediately be surrounded by the halberd generals, unable to escape!

With this strike, Gu Liangyuan had used ten-tenths of his strength!

But to Gu Liangyuan's surprise, Xuan Hu General looked at Gu Liangyuan's descending great halberd without dodging or avoiding.

As he formed hand seals, dozens of spiritual lights appeared out of thin air!

Accompanying the appearance of the spiritual lights, a rich Dao essence immediately filled the heaven and earth.

Gu Liangyuan used his detection technique to scan, and information about these Spirit Treasures surfaced in his mind.

Looking at this information, his face instantly changed dramatically!

Enlightenment Tea Powder, bodhi tree branches, South Sea Enlightenment Stone, Buddhist Dharma Wheel, First-Grade Bodhi Pill, Twin Fish Dharma Eye, Three Treasures Lotus Platform, Four Symbols Ascending Heaven Diagram, Five Elements Profound Truth Diagram...

There were thirty Magic Treasures and spiritual items, but without exception, all of them were items that aided in Enlightenment!

Gu Liangyuan merely glanced at them and felt a sense of understanding.

If he were to be touched by this Dao essence, he would surely enter Enlightenment immediately!

Gu Liangyuan hastily retracted his halberd and retreated again and again!

Fortunately, he had Instantaneous Movement, which prevented him from being tainted by the Dao essence.

This villain is harming me!

Falling into a state of Epiphany at this moment, wouldn't he be at the mercy of others?

When Gu Liangyuan looked at Xuan Hu again, he still felt lingering fear.

This person is too sinister!

I do not allow anyone in the Central Continent to be more devious than me!

He cannot be left alive, this person absolutely cannot be left alive!

And so, he threw the long halberd in his hand, transforming it into a bloody light, and together with the Nine Kill Sword, it went straight for Xuan Hu!

Gu Liangyuan's purpose was clear: long-range combat, absolutely no close combat.

However, although Xuan Hu was not strong, his speed was extremely fast.

He seemed to have also comprehended the Law of space. With a flicker of his body, he dodged Gu Liangyuan's attack.

With another flicker, he broke out of the halberd generals' encirclement.

He reached out and, with a First-Grade Bodhi Pill clamped between his fingers.

With a gentle grind of his two fingers, the pill turned into powder.

He flicked his sleeve, and a gust of wind, carrying the powder, swept from bottom to top, heading straight for Gu Liangyuan's face!

Gu Liangyuan snorted coldly, and two streams of Xuanhuang Qi spewed from his nostrils, dispersing the gust of wind.

But no sooner had he dispersed the wind than he saw several streaks of spiritual light carrying Dao essence flying towards him.
