256: The Twelve Avatars are your limit, not mine.
The moment Chen Dong saw Gu Liangyuan's true face, his rosy complexion visibly turned ashen!
At this moment, where was his previous arrogant demeanor?
In that instant, as a Body Integration Peak Cultivator, he was so startled that his thoughts froze for a moment, even forgetting to escape.
Looking at Shen Zhou beside him, he performed even worse.
His legs trembled uncontrollably, and even the fluctuations of his spiritual power became unstable.
Watching the sneering Gu Liangyuan, Shen Zhou felt as if time itself had paused at that moment.
Hongyun Palace's investigation into Gu Liangyuan had never stopped, and their understanding of Gu Liangyuan far exceeded the information known to outsiders.
They knew deeply that Gu Liangyuan could not be judged by common sense.
He seemed to have low cultivation, yet he first slew General Xuanpeng, and then Zhuge Qingyun.
Considering Gu Liangyuan's past battle achievements, Hongyun Palace unanimously believed that even Undergoing Tribulation Cultivators would absolutely not be able to hold Gu Liangyuan.
Anyone below Undergoing Tribulation who encountered Gu Liangyuan, in a life-or-death struggle, not only had no chance of winning but also no chance of survival.
They were extremely unwilling to be sent by the Scarlet Cloud Palace Young Master to participate in this mission.
Later, the Scarlet Cloud Palace Young Master offered a scroll of Eight Revolutions Profound Skill as a reward, and only then did they bravely take action.
Wealth moves hearts, but it can also take lives!
One breath, two breaths, three breaths.
It took a full three breaths for the two to react.
Run!
Unfortunately, it was too late.
As the two tried to escape, they felt the surrounding air instantly become viscous.
Making every step they took feel like sinking into a quagmire.
Looking up, they saw that the clouds within a radius of several thousand miles were tinged with a faint red.
From a Mortal's perspective looking up from below, it resembled a sunset glow.
Someone inadvertently looked up, wondering:
"How is it only noon, and the sunset glow is already out?"
Qianqiu and Song Xianer in the Dayuan Imperial Palace also felt it, and the two looked up in unison:
"Master!"
The two girls spoke in unison, then patted their Storage Pouches, summoning two Mahayana Puppets, and then came to an open space, staring unblinkingly at the sky.
Both girls recognized it; this was Gu Liangyuan's Slaughter Domain.
During this period, the actions of the two girls were uniform and coincidental.
Qianqiu and Song Xianer both glanced at each other out of the corner of their eyes, and couldn't help but smile at the same time.
Although the two girls usually had some contention over Gu Liangyuan's favor.
But these past few years of interaction had also given the two girls an unspoken understanding.
If they encountered battle, both girls could unconditionally entrust their backs to each other.
If it concerned Gu Liangyuan's favor, the two girls would guard against each other, yielding not an inch.
Gu Liangyuan within the Slaughter Domain had red hair and monstrous Killing Intent!
Within a three-thousand-mile radius, countless Mortals were affected by this Killing Intent, feeling an inexplicable panic, as if something ominous was about to happen.
A flying bird passed through the sky, and merely sensing this Killing Intent, it was scared to death and fell from the sky.
This was still the result of Gu Liangyuan's deliberate control.
In the distant layered green mountains, fierce tigers tucked their tails, old wolves wailed, black bears buried their heads, and leopards lay prone.
These beasts were all those who roamed on the edge of life and death, constantly fighting.
Yet, merely affected by this Killing Intent, which had been weakened countless times, they reacted in such a way.
If they were within the Slaughter Domain, they would surely be scared to death.
The two within the Slaughter Domain felt their internal spiritual power difficult to mobilize, and they were in utter disarray.
The two of them already harbored fear towards Gu Liangyuan, and being affected by the Slaughter Domain, their fear intensified.
Coupled with the sluggish spiritual power, they could only exert sixty percent of their full strength at this moment.
And they had completely lost their Battle Intent, merely fleeing in a panic.
Gu Liangyuan reached out, and Mo Tan Kill appeared in his hand.
With a flick of his hand, nine Mahayana Realm halberd generals appeared, surrounding the two.
Although these nine Mahayana Realm halberd generals only had Divine Souls and no sentience, their combat power was much weaker than when they were alive.
But with the enhancement of the Slaughter Domain, they could still display the strength of a Body Integration Peak.
The nine halberd generals moved according to Gu Liangyuan's will, rushing towards the two.
For a time, the two were only able to parry, with no power to retaliate.
Gu Liangyuan saw this situation and slightly curled his lips, his disdain evident.
Do the people of Hongyun Palace look down on me that much?
They sent these three useless people; I don't even need to act personally.
Thinking this, three parts of Gu Liangyuan's Killing Intent dissipated.
Just as Gu Liangyuan was about to use the Nine Kill Sword to deal with these people, he suddenly felt something unusual in his spirit beast bag.
Gu Liangyuan's mind stirred, and he patted his spirit beast bag, and Xiao Jin's figure appeared out of thin air.
At this moment, Xiao Jin had already had a Breakthrough again, reaching a Fourth-stage Yao Beast (Void Refining Realm).
After the Breakthrough, Xiao Jin looked at Gu Liangyuan with a gaze full of resentment.
As if saying: Master, I don't want to sleep anymore.
Gu Liangyuan and Xiao Jin were connected by heart, and he also understood Xiao Jin's thoughts.
So, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips:
"You really don't want to sleep anymore?"
Xiao Jin stared with eyes the size of a baby's fist, a humanized surprise flashing in his eyes, along with a hint of disbelief.
As if asking if Gu Liangyuan was serious.
Gu Liangyuan waved his hand: "Then you go out and play for a while."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin raised his two front hooves high, expressing his excitement.
Shaking his head, his body flashed, turning into a golden light, and he was about to leave.
But Xiao Jin, who hadn't gone far, suddenly saw the scene of the nine Mahayana Cultivators besieging Chen and Shen.
Before Xiao Jin could react, Chen and Shen rushed towards Xiao Jin to kill him.
Feeling the Body Integration Peak cultivation of the two, Xiao Jin let out a strange howl of fright and turned to run.
The next moment, he appeared behind Gu Liangyuan.
Crawling, he tried his best to use Gu Liangyuan's body to shield himself.
He exposed half of his head, looking at Chen and Shen.
Seeing this, Gu Liangyuan suddenly let out a cold snort, and the Profound Yellow Qi appeared out of thin air, striking directly at the two!
The two wanted to dodge, but then saw Gu Liangyuan open his mouth and spit out the Haoran Sword Qi, which he had cultivated for several years, following closely behind the Profound Yellow Qi, striking at the two again.
Then, he shook his body, and six illusory figures appeared out of thin air.
Although the six illusory figures had slight differences in appearance, it was still clear that they were sixty percent similar to Gu Liangyuan.
All six had Void Refining Peak cultivation.
Taking a step forward in unison, the six illusory figures merged into one, transforming into a Body Integration Realm illusory figure, and struck at the two again.
This move was a Small Divine Ability Gu Liangyuan learned from the Forget-Love Peak Legacy, 'Six Desires as Soldiers,' which uses the six human desires to create six Clones for combat.
And then, 'Scattering Beans into Soldiers,' 'Five Elements Divine Thunder,' and various other Small Divine Abilities were unleashed one by one.
The two went from initial fear to despair when facing the halberd generals.
Now, looking at Gu Liangyuan's endless Divine Abilities, they were completely numb.
How many Divine Abilities do you even know?
At this moment, they felt deep regret for their greed and lucky psychology.
They shouldn't have provoked the people of Forget-Love Peak.
Unfortunately, it was too late to say any of this.
When Gu Liangyuan unleashed the twelfth Small Divine Ability, Shen and Chen could no longer hold on and died under the Geng Xin One Sword.
On the verge of death, Chen Dong seemed to be muttering to himself, or perhaps asking:
"So the limit is twelve Divine Abilities?"
Gu Liangyuan shook his head: "Twelve is your limit, not mine."
