CHAPTER 502: CHAPTER 275 GU SHENG BECOMES XU LIEHUO

He smiled faintly and said, "Don’t worry, Princess. I will be careful. Moreover, I possess the Perfect Shapeshifting technique, and I will surely complete the mission smoothly."

Upon hearing this, Princess Zishuang’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and admiration.

She knew that Gu Sheng’s Shapeshifting technique was incomparably wondrous, but she hadn’t expected that he had already cultivated it to the Perfect realm.

This made her confidence in Gu Sheng even firmer.

The two shared a knowing smile, as if all difficulties and dangers had dissipated in that moment.

Gu Sheng, this young and powerful cultivator, was preparing to step into the mysterious territory of the Fire Worship Sect when suddenly, a streak of flame swept across the sky, condensing into a fire talisman that floated in the palm of his hand.

He lightly activated the talisman, and Gu Jingang’s steady and forceful voice sounded in his ears:

"Gu Sheng, it’s Gu Jingang. I have urgent news. Thousand Poison Sect has learned of your hometown in Canghe County’s Gu’s Manor and has dispatched Marrow Refining Realm experts there. They are moving quickly and likely have already arrived..."

Gu Sheng’s face instantly turned icy cold, and a flicker of rage flashed through his eyes.

Canghe County’s Gu’s Manor was not bound to him by blood, yet Gu Daniu’s family treated him like one of their own. Such kindness—how could he forget it?

"Thousand Poison Sect dares to target Gu’s Manor?!"

He roared under his breath, his fists clenched tightly, knuckles turning white.

He knew full well that it was now too late to return to Gu’s Manor in time.

Thus, he swiftly made a decision: on the one hand, he dispatched Lin Miaomiao, Huang Miaoyin, and other senior brothers and sisters of the Holy Pill Sect to rush to Canghe County to protect the family.

On the other, he decided to head straight for Thousand Poison Sect’s headquarters, employing the strategy of "besieging Wei to rescue Zhao," forcing their Sect Leader to recall their experts.

Gu Sheng moved like a streak of flowing light, hurtling toward Thousand Poison Sect’s direction.

A plan had already taken shape in his mind—all he had to do was wait for the right moment to deliver a fatal blow to Thousand Poison Sect.

Along the way, he encountered numerous disciples of Thousand Poison Sect, all of whom were subdued by him with thunderous methods.

Coldly, he interrogated each disciple about Thousand Poison Sect’s movements. Every captive trembled in terror, not daring to withhold the slightest information.

In less than two hours, he reached Thousand Poison Sect’s headquarters.

Before him stood towering peaks shrouded in mist, resembling an earthly paradise.

But Gu Sheng knew full well what kind of evil and malice lurked beneath this facade of paradise.

With a flicker of his figure, he entered the territory of Thousand Poison Sect.

Along the way, he encountered numerous disciples and elders of Thousand Poison Sect, but he easily defeated each one with overwhelming strength.

After a series of battles, he arrived at the core area of Thousand Poison Sect—a magnificent hall stood before him.

He gazed coldly at the Sect Leader within the hall, a shard of icy light flashing in his eyes.

"Thousand Poison Sect Leader, I am Gu Sheng. The experts you dispatched to Canghe County’s Gu’s Manor have already been intercepted by me. If you wish for your sect to continue existing, withdraw them immediately—otherwise, I will raze your entire Thousand Poison Sect today!" he shouted coldly.

The current leader of Thousand Poison Sect was Wu Gui. Upon hearing Gu Sheng’s words, his expression dramatically changed.

He hadn’t expected Gu Sheng to be so powerful, daring enough to storm their headquarters once more.

"Gu Sheng, don’t go too far! Our Thousand Poison Sect isn’t so easily provoked!" Wu Gui retorted, feigning composure.

"Hmph, too far? It was you who targeted Gu’s Manor first! If I don’t retaliate, how can I repay Gu Daniu’s family’s kindness to me?" Gu Sheng sneered coldly. His figure moved—he charged toward Thousand Poison Sect’s Leader.

When Gu Sheng got a clear look at the face of Wu Gui, his eyes burned with wrath, and his voice was as cold as ice:

"So it’s you, Wu Gui, the old scoundrel—you’re still clinging to life in this world!"

An endless killing intent surged in his heart. His figure flickered—the Ancient Sacred Body was instantly activated, radiating golden light across his entire being, like the arrival of a War God.

The Great Vajra Palm materialized, transforming into a golden mountain of colossal proportions, descending with overwhelming thunderous force toward Elder Wu Gui.

Wu Gui’s face twisted into a grotesque smile. With his cultivation at the peak of the Marrow Refining Realm, he was undaunted by Gu Sheng.

He snorted coldly, forming seals with both hands—immediately, the Fu Xi Eight Diagram Array surged forth.

The sky darkened as black mist billowed and obscured the sun; a powerful pressure descended upon the entire valley.

Within the Eight Diagram Array, each trigram contained infinite mysteries and boundless power, as though capable of devouring everything.

"Gu Sheng, brat! Today is the day you die!"

Wu Gui sneered hideously, "My son Wu Xinyu was slain by you—I will avenge him today!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed cold, and he laughed derisively, "Wu Xinyu, that despicable scoundrel, deserved his death! And you, old thief, dare bring him up?"

As he spoke, the golden palm collided with the Fu Xi Eight Diagram Array, producing an earth-shattering roar.

The black mist within the array writhed like living creatures, frantically surging toward Gu Sheng’s attack in an attempt to devour it.

The immense power of Gu Sheng’s Ancient Sacred Body smashed through the Eight Diagram Array, tearing apart massive swathes of black mist.

Wu Gui’s expression changed slightly—he hadn’t expected Gu Sheng’s strength to be so formidable.

Yet, he remained composed, continuing to form seals with his hands, further intensifying the power of the Eight Diagram Array.

In an instant, the valley was suffused with a terrifying aura—the clash between Gu Sheng and Elder Wu Gui reached its climax.

Their figures intertwined within the array’s black mist and the dazzling golden light. Each collision resounded with deafening booms.

Although Gu Sheng was immensely strong, Elder Wu Gui’s cultivation ran deep—and the Fu Xi Eight Diagram Array was immeasurably powerful.

Gradually, Gu Sheng began to feel his strength waning—the golden light engulfing him started to dim.

Just then, a beam of azure light erupted suddenly from within Gu Sheng, transforming into a green vine Demon Soul.
