Chapter 199: No Damage Speed Run (Two in One)
Upon hearing this, the "charcoal seller" subconsciously became alert, wondering if he had overlooked Gu Fangchen's trump card, or if this guy's cultivation level had suddenly skyrocketed again.
Although they had clearly surrounded Gu Fangchen, his first reaction was not that the other party was playing the empty city trick, but that he was worried that he really had a backup plan.
If someone had dared to speak so arrogantly in front of him in the past, he would have taken direct action and taught the other person a lesson they would never forget.
However, when facing Gu Fangchen, the situation was different.
This guy really made all of them in the Ten Daos run around in circles, and he also really made a breakthrough in the battle, using his fourth-grade rank to reverse-kill a second-grade rank half-step away, and directly crushed Gu Yuye to pieces.
Even such a situation can be turned around. The "charcoal seller" will be afraid of ropes for ten years after being bitten by a snake once.
This guy in front of me is really weird!
Even more evil than their cult!
How could a normal person think of bringing out a "violent dragon vein" from under the Nine Netherworld in order to completely overthrow Gu Yuye?
The influence of the previous fake dragon vein has not subsided until now. The imperial court has joined forces with various sects to clean up the evil spirits that have escaped, and it has almost affected the entire Jiangnan region.
As a result, all the power of the aristocratic families has been reshuffled... The once number one aristocratic families are now likely to fall.
However, the Cao Tianzhou incident exposed many dirty secrets hidden by the Dugu family, and it vindicated many officials from aristocratic families who had been wrongly persecuted in the past.
Among them was Zhu Xiuxiu’s father, who was previously redeemed by Gu Fangchen, and was also Guanyue’s father.
Of course, for their demonic cult, these things have little to do with them.
Anyway, this dragon vein incident was originally planned by them, but originally they only had the one thing of forging a fake dragon vein, and Gu Fangchen put the blame on them.
It was obvious that this guy was the culprit, but he ended up being a meritorious official highly praised by the court. He cleared himself of all charges and put all the blame on Gu Yuye and the Demon Cult. It really makes people hate him.
But that’s not the point.
What is even more outrageous now is that the "love" sect has collectively rebelled, left the Demon Sect, and declared their allegiance to Gu Fangchen!
Yes, with the power of their demonic cult, they had spent so many days concentrating their efforts to find someone in the desert sea. Why would they have to go to so much trouble and wait until today to find him?
The biggest reason is that people who are concerned with "emotion" are secretly blocking and obstructing it!
A few days ago, they discovered something was wrong...
If you don't check, you won't know. Once you check, you will find out that the entire "love" path has enshrined Gu Fangchen, the fake Taoist master, as the new Taoist master in just a few days.
The reason is very simple, because Gu Fangchen used the dragon vein to set up a shocking scam, and deceived everyone in their "love" circle!
As for the way of "love", once you review it, you will find that it is simply a work of art!
Gu Fangchen entered the game himself, first deceived several other Taoist masters and seized the identity of the Taoist master of "Love", then deceived Gu Yuye with the dragon vein, and then turned around and deceived the whole world!
After being deceived, the people of the "Love" Dao were first angry, then shocked, and all agreed that this was the true Dao Master they had been waiting for for a long time!
Then, this group of lunatics cheered and rebelled happily...
They didn't even care about Gu Fangchen's wishes, they just pledged their loyalty unilaterally, helping Gu Fangchen cover up his whereabouts and delaying the actions of the Demon Cult.
After going through this series of events, the "charcoal seller" was completely convinced.
Therefore, at this moment Gu Fangchen was alone and looked weak, but he also felt that this guy was not bluffing.
But even if Gu Fangchen has a backup plan, they are fully prepared this time.
The entire desert sea is blocked, where else can he escape to?
What's more, Xu Fu, who is trapped in a mortal body, must still be in the ruins at this moment, so Gu Fangchen can't escape even if he wants to.
The charcoal seller took a deep breath, a fierce gleam flashed in his old eyes, and he spat and said:
"Gu Fangchen, use whatever means you have. Don't try to delay any longer. Today, either you die or I die!"
Gu Fangchen was indeed delaying time, but only by a little bit. As long as he could make the other party hesitate for a moment, it would be almost enough.
Although this "charcoal seller" shouted loudly, he actually did not dare to act rashly.
"The Demon Cult is quite efficient. These few days were only enough to restart the altar, but they didn't have time to unlock the soul-locking formation on the State Master. Otherwise, they would have won by now..."
Gu Fangchen took a deep breath, stretched out his hand, and stroked his palm.
Poisonous blood flowed down.
Well... although he cuts himself every time, a fourth-grade warrior has a strong body and blood, so he can do whatever he wants.
Now that the Flower-Picking Seal is gone, the toxin of the "Heart Poison" is no longer restrained and begins to spread throughout the body, further increasing the intensity of the toxin and the concentration of spiritual power in his blood.
It is no exaggeration to say that there is hardly a drop of blood in his veins now, they are all poison.
This thing is really useful as a medium for setting up formations.
What's more, this time he was going to open the [Blood God Altar], so using blood was the best option.
"not good!"
When the "charcoal seller" discovered that Gu Fangchen was casting a spell, he immediately realized that he had to stop him.
His face darkened, and with a flash, his body suddenly turned into a tall and strong man. His pair of dark hands swelled up, covered with knotty muscles, with cracks on them. Flames splashed, and the temperature suddenly rose, causing the air around them to distort instantly.
He clenched his fist and punched towards Gu Fangchen.
Gu Fangchen naturally would not fight him head-on, so he took out the [White Horse] directly. A white light flashed in his eyes, and he found a crack appearing on the leg of the "charcoal seller".
Although it was a pity that the crack did not appear on the fist of the "Charcoal Seller", it would not be bad on his leg.
This guy's cultivation level is at the peak of the third rank, and the technique he practices is called "Fire Forging Technique", which is a technique that sacrifices one's own physical strength in exchange for power.
Generally speaking, the more a martial arts practitioner practices, the stronger his physical body becomes.
However, for the "Charcoal Seller", the higher his cultivation level, the more fragile his body becomes, which is a true case of high attack and low imitation.
His attack power value is one of the best in the entire game, and can even compete with the peak Ding Xingfeng.
But in contrast, his own body is also extremely fragile.
The strength is probably only around level five.
Even the current Gu Fangchen could kill him easily.
But the prerequisite is to be able to get close and break through his attacks and defensive magic tools. More importantly, due to the fragility of his flesh, once his body is seriously damaged, it will cause a chain reaction like "charcoal", collapsing all at once...
In other words, Gu Fangchen's [White Horse] is a natural nemesis for him.
What's more, he has two magical weapons in his hands: "Thousand Tribulations Silk" and "Rising Blue Sea Tide".
"boom!"
The "charcoal seller" attacked with a punch, and the ground around him cracked and turned into scorched earth. As the wind from the fist swept through, everything turned to ashes.
Facing the devastating punch, Gu Fangchen suddenly clenched his bloody palm and pulled it back.
“Sizzle!”
The "Thousand Tribulations Silk" that had been arranged long ago appeared in front of him, densely packed together, forming a carefully woven spider web.
Just waiting for the prey to fall into the net!
——With his current level of cultivation, he is finally able to unleash the true power of this magical weapon composed of strands of heavenly lightning.
The "Charcoal Seller" knows his own weaknesses, so he wears many defensive items on his body, and ordinary magic weapons cannot hurt him at all.
But the "Thousand Tribulations Silk" is different. It is refined by the heavenly tribulation. Even a third-grade martial arts practitioner would not dare to confront it head-on.
What's more, Gu Fangchen's purpose was just to make the "charcoal seller" hesitate.
When the "charcoal seller" saw the dense lightning of the heavenly tribulation, he subconsciously paused. At this moment, the "Thousand Tribulations Silk" that Gu Fangchen was pulling simultaneously pulled the "Rising Blue Sea Tide" that was prepared behind him.
He did not pull the "Thousand Tribulations Silk" casually. He slightly changed the direction of the "Rising Tide of the Blue Sea" and then shot it in the direction he wanted.
The jade bow had been ready to go for a long time, and it had been stretched to its limit. When it was pulled by the "Thousand Tribulations Silk", the mermaid's tears on it immediately turned into a series of arrows.
"Swish swish——"
Gu Fangchen bent down and dodged. The arrow was heading towards the vital point of the "charcoal seller". His pupils immediately constricted, his scalp went numb, and he suddenly turned his head to avoid it.
“Bang!”
The arrow exploded in mid-air, and the formation inside it unfolded, turning into rain all over the sky.
And in this rain, there was also the poisonous blood from Gu Fangchen's body.
At this time, seeing that the "charcoal seller's" attention was diverted, Gu Fangchen bent down and rushed forward, raising the [White Horse] in his hand.
"laugh!"
[White Horse] turned into a cold light and cut open the crack.
Before the "charcoal seller" could react, he felt a sharp pain in his leg!
He looked down in confusion and found that one of his legs had been chopped off by Gu Fangchen!
“No… How is that possible?!”
"Why does this guy know all my weaknesses?!"
This is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is why Gu Fangchen is so skilled in dealing with him?
It's like... killing him countless times!
The "charcoal seller" had a distorted expression and a look of disbelief flashed through his mind. Then, the broken marks on his leg began to spread throughout his body.
“Crack…Crack…”
Originally, in the eyes of the "charcoal seller", although Gu Fangchen was extremely cunning and very good at deceiving people, he should be a formation cultivator in essence.
Gu Fangchen doesn't have many direct combat records. Most of the time, he relies on weakening the opponent first and then using his own physical strength to resist. When it comes to martial arts, he doesn't seem to be proficient in it.
But now he finally saw Gu Fangchen's true fighting style.
He has no martial arts skills at all, all he has is a thorough understanding of his enemy.
Every move is just to implement the purpose of "killing the opponent efficiently", and all means used are to achieve this goal.
Martial arts skills are not important at all...
Anyone with the same cultivation level and magical weapon can achieve the same effect!
This is called a strategy!
Alas, if it were in the past, he would have posted another video of "157 seconds of speedrunning 'The Charcoal Seller' without taking any damage"...
As for that level difference, is it important?
When players fight bosses, they are always at least 10 levels lower than the boss...
Gu Fangchen completed a series of movements including striding forward, leaning over, and sweeping sideways. He raised his head and smiled at the "charcoal seller," and raised the [White Horse] in his hand.
“Swish!”
The "charcoal seller" had already reacted, his eyes flashed coldly, and he roared angrily, risking being hit by countless raindrops. Lightning flashed through his body and punched Gu Fangchen.
"Bang!"
Gu Fangchen took the punch head-on and was knocked back, falling into the ruins, raising a lot of dust.
The "charcoal seller" laughed heartily, but when he raised his hand, his face froze as he realized that his arm had also been cut off.
Combined with the injuries he had suffered previously, his body was riddled with wounds.
“Crack!”
His fragile body could not withstand such large-scale damage at all, and it made a shattering sound, like a piece of burnt-out charcoal, turning into gray and shattered all over the ground.
From the limbs, to the body, and then to the head.
The charcoal seller's body turned to ash, which was then extinguished by the continuous rain. It stuck to the ground and turned into mud...
“Daoist Master…Daoist Master!”
Those members of the Demon Sect were stunned when they saw this, but then they burst into an even stronger murderous intent and rushed towards the dusty ruins.
Gu Fangchen had just peeled himself off the mural, coughed twice, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, turned around and saw the Nine Nether Fissures on the altar and the powerful and terrifying aura that emerged, and curled the corners of his mouth.
"boom!"
A thicker and more powerful column of blood shot up into the sky, covering the previous thin streak of blood light.
At the same time, eight more similar blood lights appeared across the entire desert sea!
A total of nine [Blood God Altars] have been restarted, and the sacrificial formation that the "Blood God Cult" failed to complete has been activated.
Its goal is to encompass all living beings within the entire desert sea.
Of course, Gu Fangchen didn't intend to do this... He was not an anti-human devil, so how could he do such a cruel thing.
Under normal circumstances, the sacrifice has already begun, and the default is to sacrifice these creatures.
But Gu Fangchen planned to discuss it with the other party.
As for why he could discuss things with the great evil, it was because... the so-called great evil believed in by the "Blood God Cult" was actually an acquaintance that Gu Fangchen had worked with before.
“Ouch!”
A mass of filthy flesh and blood emerged from the crack, emitting a terrifying roar that was breathtaking.
But Gu Fangchen waved and said with a smile:
"It's been a long time since we last met!"
The big evil spirit was a mass of filthy flesh and blood. It had not been summoned for a long time and was about to come out for a big meal, but when it heard the words, it was shocked and looked down, and was stunned.
"Why is it you?!"
It hesitated for a moment, then transformed into a red-robed human monk.
This so-called "Blood God" is none other than the ghost general "Ruoye" under the command of the "Lord of the Central Hell". Last time, it was he who helped to set up the formation, which enabled the "Evil Dragon Vein" to rise into reality.
