In 2035, Spirit Realms and Spirit Gates appeared worldwide, spiritual energy gradually revived, and powerful figures emerged from all factions.
High school student Guo Feng awakened the '...
boom!
boom!
boom!
boom……
Dozens of deafening roars echoed throughout the entire world!
One terrifying blade of light after another poured out from Guo Feng's hand.
It slashed at Zhang Taidou again and again!
The surrounding mountains and forests were exploding continuously!
"Help me!"
"No--"
"Wei Wuxian, save me!"
Zhang Taidou's shrill screams continued to echo.
It emanated from the continuous roar of the dragon.
However, after Guo Feng unleashed twenty-four consecutive slashes, releasing seventy-two blade beams.
Zhang Taidou's tortoise-shell-like protection shattered completely.
The magical artifact shattered completely.
His entire body was slammed into the ground hundreds of meters deep, creating a crater over a hundred meters in diameter.
His entire body was cracked.
On the verge of death!
His face was filled with despair!
He never knew that a person could unleash such terrifying power so intermittently!
"You, what kind of monster are you...?"
After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, looking unwilling, as if he still wanted to drag Guo Feng down with him into hell.
But before he could finish speaking, he placed his hand on the ground.
Death and the annihilation of one's spiritual path!
He died instantly!
Dead!
"call--"
Guo Feng also breathed a sigh of relief. A ninth-rank person, especially one with such a long-standing background.
They're really hard to kill!
Fortunately, he can unleash his ultimate moves continuously without interruption.
Twenty-four moves!
It consumed a total of one second-grade spirit talisman, three repair fruits, and 240 divine thoughts.
To be honest, using divine sense to incorporate into techniques is really expensive!
But it's so cool!
All things considered, killing a level 90 expert for such a small amount of money is not a big deal.
As he spoke, he waved his hand and put away Zhang Taidou's spatial artifact.
It can be considered spoils of war.
He scanned it with his divine sense and found that it contained only some ordinary pills, worth a little over 30,000 spirit stones.
Several talismans.
There are no more magical artifacts or anything like that.
However, this isn't a complete loss.
He accepted the spirit stones directly.
He then turned his gaze to Wei Wuxian and the other man, somewhat surprised: "Gentlemen, it seems you're not here to deal with me?"
Because he had just slashed Zhang Taidou twenty-four times.
A few breaths later.
Zhang Taidou also cried for help.
However, neither of them showed any intention of helping.
If they intervened, Zhang Taidou might not necessarily die.
"Guo Feng, you are truly amazing."
Lu Wuji looked astonished, then said, "However, you guessed right, we are not here to be your enemy."
Wei Wuxian also said, "Actually, we were entrusted by Commander Sima Hui to come and lend you a hand, but we didn't expect... you to be so powerful on your own."
"oh?!"
Guo Feng looked them up and down with suspicion, and asked, "Why are you helping us?"
"I'm not helping you."
Wei Wuxian shook his head, "It's because I don't want this great and prosperous era to be destroyed in an instant."
He paused for a moment, then said, "You may not know this, but some people want to take advantage of this chaotic world of spiritual energy revival to restore the imperial system and become emperors."
"King Hun Tian?"
Guo Feng was somewhat surprised.
Wei Wuxian simply smiled and said, "I won't delve into it further. This matter is very complicated and involves more than just one or two people."
He paused for a moment, looking at Guo Feng, "Don't be too surprised. I'm only a little over a hundred years old. I also experienced the most chaotic and darkest era in our country."
"Back then, my unit killed just as many Japanese soldiers as others."
"Later, we discovered the Jinghua Spirit Realm. I was ordered to enter the Jinghua Spirit Realm to explore, and I have been cultivating there ever since."
He then pointed at Lü Wuji, "Old Lü was a Taoist priest back then, with a lot of kung fu skills. He did a lot of things in that chaotic era, and his hands were stained with the blood of Japanese devils."
"good."
Lu Wuji nodded, "When you argued with Zhang Taidou before, you said we were hiding in the background, and I didn't come out to speak up because most of what you said was correct."
"Back then, many people from holy sites did choose to remain aloof and protect themselves."
"However, many heroes also emerged to fight the well-equipped Japanese soldiers to the death."
He smiled and said, "One of my comrades was quite skilled in martial arts back then, equivalent to a level ten or so today. He was a nightmare for the Japanese soldiers, but he was still killed by stray bullets in a chaotic battle."
“He was physically strong and didn’t die immediately. I dragged him back and asked him if he had anything to say.”
"He only said that he had no regrets, and that he only wished that everyone in China would have food to eat, no longer live in fear, that everyone would have a place to live, that the sick would have access to medical care, that the diligent would have a job, and that the laborers would have their due."
He smiled, a hint of tears in his eyes, "And this prosperous era may have many flaws, but it is mostly as he wished."
He then looked at Guo Feng and said, "But those ambitious people, once they succeed, will create slavery and go back to the old ways. Wouldn't my brothers have sacrificed themselves in vain?"
Guo Feng was filled with respect upon hearing their words.
He saluted the two men and said, "Please rest assured, seniors, I, Guo Feng, will never let them ruin this prosperous era. I will only make everyone's life better and fairer! I will ensure that the diligent have their jobs and the hardworking are rewarded!"
"With your words, we can rest assured."
Wei Wuxian smiled and nodded, saying, "You are a miracle. Our country has produced miracles before, and now there is another one. Good, very good!"
He gave a thumbs up. "You go first, we'll handle the rest. Hopefully, when you come back, we can resolve our current predicament."
