Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 815 - 572: Demonic Might Overwhelms, Dominating the Nine Provinces_2

"Are we all... going to die?" a warrior looked up at the sky, his face vacant as he muttered unconsciously.

At this moment, an indescribable panic rose from the depths of every person's heart in the nine provinces, spreading continuously and leaving them cold to their core.

Meanwhile, in a distant place of the nine provinces, Gu Chen stood in black robes, his expression extremely somber as he gazed into the sky.

Originally, he had thought the appearance of a multitude of demons was an opportunity for him, one that would allow him to smoothly break through to the Divine Intent Realm and fully prepare for the ultimate battle with Dugu Yun.

But unfortunately, it seemed the other party also feared Gu Chen's talent and did not want to continue giving him time to grow, which is why Dugu Yun emerged as soon as his strength had recovered.

"Regardless, this battle is inevitable. If so, let us fight!" Gu Chen's eyes were calm like a deep, tranquil pool, without a ripple. In an instant, his figure soared into the sky, heading straight for the direction of Yangzhou.

Luckily, the citizens of Yangzhou had already been evacuated ahead of time, and those remaining had taken refuge in the shelters prepared earlier. Thus, even if Dugu Yun made a move, Gu Chen could engage in an all-out battle without too many concerns.

Gu Chen was fast, and he was not too far from Yangzhou. It didn't take long before he arrived at his destination.

Yangzhou at that moment had no trace of life; all tangible life had been eradicated, leaving only the dark energy and that horrifying pressure.

Upon Gu Chen's arrival, the dense, malevolent energy seemed to find its target, gathering rapidly and surging towards him.

Seeing this scene, Gu Chen furrowed his brows. Even without laying eyes on Dugu Yun, just the black energy seeping out exerted some pressure on him, making him realize the difficulty of this battle.

Boom!

Gu Chen's body was enveloped in a pale golden flame—it was none other than the Sun True Fire!

The moment he arrived, Gu Chen had employed one of his killer moves, which goes to show how deeply he dreaded Dugu Yun.

Hiss—Hiss—Hiss!

The black aura spread across the sky, attempting to plunder Gu Chen's life, but before the Sun True Fire on his body, it was all burnt to ash.

As Gu Chen advanced, the black aura could not impede him even for a moment.

After all, the Sun True Fire is extremely vigorous and yang; it is an extremely powerful tool even in the Upper Realms and can be considered one of Gu Chen's trump cards. If it couldn't even handle these black auras, then there would be no point to this battle, as there would be no suspense whatsoever.

At that very moment, Dugu Yun, who was positioned at the highest point in the central airspace of Yangzhou, had already sensed Gu Chen's presence the instant he appeared.

The reason he had been waiting here without making a move was for Gu Chen.

As long as he killed Gu Chen, all of Da Xia would be without dissent.

Gu Chen was the only variable in his quest to rule over Da Xia.

"If I consumed you, it would undoubtedly bring me significant benefits," Dugu Yun said emotionlessly, looking in a certain direction where Gu Chen was gradually drawing closer.

Although Gu Chen was only at the Divine Intent Realm and his cultivation level was not as high as his, he was still the most exceptional person in Da Xia through the ages. Outstanding in every aspect, devouring Gu Chen, even for a fiend from the Heavenly Realm, would be immensely advantageous.

This was also a premonition that Dugu Yun had, one of several reasons that made him wait here for Gu Chen.

Whoosh!

The next moment, Gu Chen moved like lightning, his figure streaking over Yangzhou's sky like a bolt of thunder, like a beam of light piercing the darkness, dispelling the majority of the gloom that hung over Yangzhou's heavens.

The sunlight, previously obscured by the omnipresent black miasma, once again shone upon the earth, revealing the astonishing view beneath their feet—a land riddled with wounds and utterly devoid of vitality.

Not only had all the vegetation withered and decayed, but the very earth itself was lifeless, like a drought-stricken wasteland—barren, parched, and crisscrossed with countless cracks.

This was a scene that was shockingly horrific, as if the apocalypse were imminent, and with the sky overhead shrouded in dark clouds, lightning flashing, thunder roaring, the whole world seemed filled with an air of destruction, as if everything was on the verge of annihilation.

And the source of it all was none other than the expressionless, icily staring head of the Six Union God Sect, Dugu Yun, not far from Gu Chen!

One might say Dugu Yun was Da Xia's last great foe, and the various events Gu Chen had experienced along his journey were tied to this Six Union God Sect head in innumerable ways.

One could even say that from the very beginning, it was destined that the two of them were to be sworn enemies in a fight to the death!

At this moment, after four years, Gu Chen had become Da Xia's last line of defense, standing here, confronting him face to face.

As the two met, in an instant, there was a rumbling thunder; a blinding flash of lightning streaked across the sky. The powerful auras they each radiated collided, and at that moment, the entire world trembled under the strain, as if it were on the brink of shattering!
