Chapter 29: The man in white steps onto the stage and blasts Bai Li to pieces with a single punch!
"Gu Jiancheng?!"
After a long while, everyone finally came to their senses, but Gu Jiancheng's appearance still left them puzzled.
Why would this person be here?
An outer sect cripple is not qualified to set foot on the inner sect plaza!
Gu Jingyu looked at Gu Jiancheng, his eyes suddenly filled with shock and anger.
Did he come up here at this time to see me make a fool of myself?
"How dare you! Who do you think you are, spouting such nonsense?"
Li Wanjun was furious.
Gu Jingyu's success in clearing the Hundred Refinements Tower is an indisputable fact; how dare a mere outer disciple dare to question it?!
"Where is the outer sect elder? Who let him up here?"
"Bomb him off!"
At this moment, Gu Jingyu roared, "I can be humiliated, but I absolutely cannot be humiliated by Gu Jiancheng."
At this moment, all the inner sect cultivators stepped forward, ready to make their move.
"I sent Jian Cheng up here, who dares to touch him?!"
But at that moment, at the end of the long staircase, Leng Yuzhen, along with Lu Dongliu, Shen Ruyue, and others, stepped onto the inner gate.
Fortunately, they arrived not too late; the real show was just beginning!
"Leng Yuzhen?"
Are you out of your mind?
Seeing Lu Dongliu, Shen Ruyue, and the others come up as well, Li Wanjun was even more ashamed and angry, saying, "Do you think the Tai Xuan Sect isn't shameful enough?"
"Disgraceful!?"
But Leng Yuzhen couldn't help but sneer: "No matter how shameful it is, can it be as shameful as your disciple who always cowers like a turtle and dares not step forward?"
"What did you say?" Li Wanjun coldly retorted, "Don't think I wouldn't dare to touch you."
"He dares to be compared to Jingyu?!"
"Hmph, not worthy?" Leng Yuzhen laughed angrily, "Then Gu Jingyu is indeed not worthy!"
"Because Jian Cheng just now, in the outer sect, single-handedly suppressed the Heavenly Sword Sect's alchemy path with the Dragon Tiger Pill!"
"What has your disciple done for the sect this time?"
Leng Yuzhen was stern in appearance but weak in reality, her voice as cold as frost, yet it resounded throughout the entire inner gate square.
"what?"
"One person suppressing the alchemy master of the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
How can an outsider with a weak body defeat a prodigy of the Heavenly Sword Sect using alchemy?!
"Hahaha, this is utterly ridiculous!"
"How could the alchemy prodigy of my Heavenly Sword Sect lose to a mere outer sect trash like you?"
At this moment, Liu Qing also shouted angrily.
They brought only Wan Fang, a disciple specializing in alchemy, because they were absolutely confident that they could sweep through the alchemy sect of Tai Xuan Sect.
"Senior brother, we have indeed lost!"
At this moment, another elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect's Dao Palace also arrived at the inner gate square.
Behind him followed a distraught Wanfang.
When Gu Jiancheng's Dragon-Tiger Pill was successfully completed, and of an astonishingly high quality, she immediately lost her composure and shattered the pill furnace.
"what do you!"
Liu Qing's face twisted instantly, a mixture of shock, anger, confusion, and humiliation rising on his face.
He never dreamed this would happen.
"Hehe, Liu Qing, I am a judge. Gu Jiancheng possesses the top-tier Xuanhuo Nine Thunder Heavenly Heart, and he refined the Dragon Elephant Pill in just one cup of tea. Your Heavenly Sword Sect has indeed lost!"
"If you lose, you have to accept it!"
At this moment, Lu Dongliu also stepped forward and spoke loudly from behind Gu Jiancheng.
Although his combat strength is not as good as Liu Qing's, he has the backing of the Pill Society and is not afraid of the Heavenly Sword Sect in the slightest!
"No, that's impossible!"
Liu Qing swayed.
Even though the name of the Heavenly Sword Sect will eventually be engraved on the Tai Xuan Mountain Gate, he still cannot accept that the alchemy sect was defeated by the outer disciples.
This is a disgrace to the Heavenly Sword Sect!
The inner disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect were also dumbfounded.
Gu Jiancheng, an outer disciple, actually possessed such profound fire and defeated the Heavenly Sword Sect using alchemy.
At this moment, Gu Jingyu's heart was filled with turmoil.
Why, why isn't it him who possesses the top-tier Xuan Fire?
Gu Jiancheng stole everything from him, and even took Yunshuiyao!
This drove him absolutely mad!
"Even so, we cannot tolerate his nonsense and slander of Jingyu!"
At this moment, Li Wanjun was still roaring, his face flushed red.
Originally, he wanted to see Gu Jingyu sweep through the Heavenly Sword Sect alone and save Tai Xuan from collapse. At that time, Gu Jingyu would not only become famous in the Eastern Region, but he would also secure his position as the acting sect leader of Tai Xuan, or even become the true sect leader of Tai Xuan!
But now, Gu Jiancheng has suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stolen all the limelight that should have belonged to Gu Jingyu?
"Heh, slander?"
"Qingyang, now that you've come out, tell everyone, did you clear the Hundred Refinement Tower?"
Leng Yuzhen scoffed and looked at Luo Qingyang in the arms of the Hundred Flowers Peak Master, asking a question.
Everything will come to light.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingyu's heart sank, and a look of panic flashed across his face.
Everyone turned to look.
"Pass through the Hundred Refinement Tower?"
But Luo Qingyang, who had just recovered some strength, shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "This disciple is incompetent; I only managed to reach the ninth level by risking my life."
"The ninth floor!?"
Upon hearing this, Leng Yuzhen's expression changed drastically.
Although the ninth floor is already extremely high, it is enough to prove that it was not him who lit up the Hundred Refinements Tower that day.
Could it really be Gu Jingyu?
But at this moment, Gu Jingyu was equally shocked.
He felt as if he were walking on the edge of a cliff, but now things have taken a turn for the better.
"Hmph, Leng Yuzhen, are you satisfied now?"
Li Wanjun sneered, then looked at Gu Jingyu and said, "Jingyu, don't be influenced by others. You take action and suppress the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect!"
"Have you all finished acting?"
Before Gu Jingyu could speak, Gu Jianying stepped forward again.
"Sixth brother, I am very pleased that you possess the Mystic Fire. I will not take your slander to heart."
Gu Jingyu smiled warmly, still maintaining the perfect persona in everyone's eyes.
"It's okay to lie to others, but don't lie to yourself. If you really cleared the Hundred Refinement Tower, would you be afraid to step onto the arena?"
"Stop with that disgusting, hypocritical face."
Gu Jiancheng kept walking, his face full of disdain.
"I don't know what you're talking about. The facts are clear: if it wasn't me who cleared the Hundred Refinement Tower, then who was?"
Gu Jingyu shrugged, looking completely unconcerned.
"Hehe, I forgot to tell you, besides you all entering the Hundred Refinements that day, I was there too!"
"As for who cleared the tenth floor, you will soon find out."
As Gu Jiancheng finished speaking, he stepped onto the arena.
Immediately, he looked at the stunned Bai Li with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, "Are you going to get down here on your own, or should I send you on your way?"
Um! ?
Seeing that Gu Jiancheng had actually stepped onto the arena, everyone couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.
What's happening here?
Even though Gu Jiancheng defeated the Heavenly Sword Sect, it was only in terms of his mastery of alchemy.
He still has no trace of cultivation aura, so what's the point of going up to the arena?
Are we just sending ourselves to our deaths?
Gu Jingyu also suppressed a sinister smile in his heart. This Gu Jiancheng really brought this upon himself.
If Bai Li were to kill him, that would be exactly what he wanted!
"Jian Cheng has also entered the Hundred Refinement Tower, could it be..."
Only Leng Yuzhen felt a jolt in her heart, and then her eyes shone with an unbridled brilliance.
If that's the case, wouldn't Gu Jiancheng and Yun Shuiyao be a match made in heaven?
"Are you... insane?"
Finally, Bai Li on the arena recovered his senses.
For no apparent reason, I was looked down upon by an outer disciple of the Tai Xuan Sect?
"Three breaths."
But Gu Jiancheng gradually grew impatient.
"How dare you! Who do you think you are, putting on airs in front of me!"
Bai Li instantly flew into a rage, and suddenly swung the desolate sword, the air waves like a tidal wave, heading straight for Gu Jiancheng!
He couldn't sense Gu Jiancheng's cultivation aura. Such a weak mortal could be chopped into dust with a single sword strike.
"It seems you chose the latter."
Gu Jiancheng's pupils suddenly contracted, a flash of fire appeared in his eyes, and his large hand suddenly rose up, his five fingers clenched into a fist, and he thrust it out!
hum!
In an instant, it seemed as if Gu Jiancheng's body was surrounded by a burst of fiery energy, and the air in front of his fist was compressed, emitting a piercing whistling sound.
boom!
But in the next instant, the energy surge that Bai Li unleashed suddenly exploded and collapsed.
"what?"
Bai Li was instantly terrified, but before he could raise his sword to block, he was sent flying backward as if struck by a giant elephant.
shock!
At that moment, everyone on and off the stage watched this scene with their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
Bai Li, who had won all eight of his battles, was actually defeated!?
Or even, be blown apart by a single punch!
After a long while, everyone looked at Bai Li, who had fallen off the stage and was now like a dead dog, and they couldn't help but gasp in shock, followed by a cacophony of exclamations!
Bai Li lost, and to an outer disciple no less!
The sinister smile on Gu Jingyu's face vanished instantly, leaving him dumbfounded.
Gu Jiancheng wasn't born with a weak body?!
Could it be that the one who cleared the Hundred Refinement Tower was my sixth brother, whom I've never looked down upon?
Gu Jingyu suddenly realized that there were only a dozen or so of them outside the Hundred Refinement Tower that day. If it wasn't Luo Qingyang, then it really could have been...
"No, that's absolutely impossible!"
At this moment, Gu Jingyu staggered, as if all his strength had been instantly drained.
Top-tier Xuan Fire, heaven-defying alchemy—if Gu Jiancheng can still pass the Hundred Refinement Tower, it would be even more unbearable than killing him.
"You, you should die!"
Gu Jingyu glared at Gu Jiancheng, who stood proudly on the arena, with extreme resentment, like a venomous snake.
"How could this be?"
Sword Cloud Peak Master Li Wanjun was even more shocked. The power that Gu Jiancheng had just unleashed was so powerful!
But why couldn't he sense any cultivation level from him before?
"Bai Li!"
At this moment, Liu Qing also flashed in front of Bai Li, but he was shocked to find that Bai Li's meridians were all shattered and his dantian was destroyed!
With just one punch, Bai Li was crippled!?
"How could you be so cruel?!"
Liu Qing glared angrily at Gu Jiancheng on the arena.
"Heh, I haven't even used my full strength and he's already like this. It's already a stroke of luck that he's not dead."
Gu Jiancheng only responded with a cold sneer, then his gaze fell on the remaining two sword cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
"I just heard that you've reached the ninth level of the Hundred Refinements Tower?"
"Come on up together, I'll go easy on you!"
