Master's ultimate skill!
Domineering Blade strikes—
Faced with such an intensely terrifying Blade Intent, Wen Jiao felt as if his very blood, spirit, and soul had been frozen solid, followed immediately by the harsh gleam of a blade entering his field of vision.
Before this stroke of the blade,
all forms of strength were rendered utterly meaningless.
The Domineering Blade cleaved through waves like it was splitting the heavens and Earth, and ferociously fell upon Wen Jiao's body.
The light of the blade flashed and was gone in an instant.
Wen Jiao's body abruptly became still where he stood.
Shock and disbelief filled his eyes as he looked on.
"Master's True Intent—you've actually comprehended the Master's True Intent, you're a half-step Master!!"
As Wen Jiao's words fell, blood stains appeared on the eyebrows of the other person, and in the blink of an eye, they had spread across his entire body. And with the next breath, his body split in two, with copious amounts of blood and organs spilling onto the ground.
The Peak Master of Red Flame Peak had met his end right then and there.
Immediately afterward,
a terrifyingly sinister and cold breath burst forth from Wen Jiao's corpse as an evil spirit, dark green and black like a baby, crawled out from the remains, akin to a true demon emerging from the depths of hell.
before the evil spirit could make a move, Gu Qingfeng swung his blade and pinned the creature to the ground. Burning with intensely hot vitality, blood force was integrated into the Evil Slayer Blade. It collided with the frigid force of the evil spirit, like water poured into hot oil, and exploded with a violent thrashing sound.
The evil spirit struggled and twisted violently, emitting screams unlike any human sound, causing the complexions of all the disciples of the Gu Family Manor to drastically change.
With one blade, Gu Qingfeng suppressed the evil spirit and said to Gu Yang, who had come behind him, in a deep voice, "Yang'er, go to the Demon Suppression Prison this instant and bring back a Golden Coffin!"
Upon hearing the command, Gu Yang immediately turned and entered the Gu Family Manor.
It wasn't long before,
he returned, carrying a Golden Coffin.
With one palm, Gu Qingfeng forced open the lid of the coffin, then using his long blade to hoist the evil spirit, he threw it into the coffin with the speed of lightning. Only after that did he seal the lid once again, completely sealing it inside.
As iron chains were wrapped around it, the shaking of the Golden Coffin died down significantly.
"Carry it into the Demon Suppression Prison!"
Gu Qingfeng said flatly, then turned his gaze back onto the corpse of Wen Jiao.
Gu Qingfeng found two thin Secret Manuals on him.
One was a Cultivation Technique for Magicians called Evil Refining Entering the Body, and the other was the Martial Arts of Red Flame Peak.
Gu Qingfeng said to Gu Peng behind him, "Stitch this man's body back together, then hang it at the east gate of White Stone City as a warning to the whole world!"
"Understood, manor master!"
Gu Peng accepted the order with a bow, his face filled with reverence.
He too had heard of the name Wen Jiao, Peak Master of Red Flame Peak—a top-notch warrior of the Red Flame Sect, with many Refining Organ Martial Artists falling by his hand.
His strength was among the very pinnacle throughout Guangyang Prefecture.
such a mighty warrior,
could not withstand a single strike from Gu Qingfeng.
His own manor master's strength inspired in Gu Peng an endless sense of awe.
The remaining disciples of the Gu Family Manor, similarly recovering from their initial shock, looked at Gu Qingfeng's silhouette with increasingly fervent expressions.
"Manor master's might is divine!"
"The manor master's Divine Skill is unrivaled, how dare these evil spirits behave atrociously in our Gu Family Manor!"
This was their home—the Gu Family Manor.
To be part of such a power, backed by such strong Keep reading on NovelHub - where stories come alive!
Hearing the surrounding flattery and seeing the many admiring glances, Gu Qingfeng remained unfazed.
"Remember, the Gu Family Manor does not instigate trouble, but we are also not afraid of it. When you go out, do not disgrace the manor's name!"
"We will certainly heed the manor master's instruction!"
Two secret manuals were laid out in front of Gu Qingfeng.
However, his attention wasn't on the manuals at that moment, but rather pondering the recent battle with Wen Jiao and the subtle details it entailed.
To outsiders, Gu Qingfeng had seemingly killed his opponent with ease.
Only Gu Qingfeng himself knew.
His strike had encapsulated all of True Intent and the power of his blood and energy, gathering the pinnacle of his spirit and naturally slaying Wen Jiao.
This did not mean Wen Jiao was weak.
Wen Jiao was very strong.
His presence gave the impression that if they were to have a normal exchange of blows, suppressing him wouldn't be easy, and this was not what Gu Qingfeng wanted.
In today's chaotic world, the Gu Family Manor needed to exhibit formidable strength to establish itself amidst the turmoil.
Merely eradicating the Green Sun Sect was not enough to deter others.
After all, though the Green Sun Sect counted as a major sect within Guangyang Prefecture, it was several notches below sects like the Red Flame Sect that had spanned a millennium.
Wen Jiao, as a Peak Master of the Red Flame Sect, held a position of strength recognized throughout the entire sect.
With Gu Qingfeng slaying him with a single blade, the news once spread would be enough to shock all quarters.
Other forces would think twice before meddling with the Gu Family Manor or laying their hands on White Stone Dao.
Before they make a move.
They must at least consider whether they could withstand that single blade.
"Wen Jiao, originally a Martial Artist of the Refining Organ Realm with years of Evil Refining within his body, had also long since broken through to the Spirit-controlling Realm, such foundation of strength was not only formidable within the Red Flame Sect but also recognized throughout the entire Guangyang Prefecture as an illustrious and powerful figure.
This means, my current strength, even facing the top figures of the Spirit-controlling Realm head-on, is not without the capital to fight!"
Gu Qingfeng's eyes were profound.
He thought of Wen Jiao's words before his death.
Gu Qingfeng believed that only a Refining Organ Martial Artist who understood True Intent could truly be called a Little Master.
But now it seemed, the world did not view.
Refining Organ itself qualified one as a Little Master.
If one comprehended True Intent, they could be regarded as a half-step Master.
Above a half-step Master.
Lies the realm of true Master powerhouses.
With this thought settled.
Gu Qingfeng then turned his gaze back to the two secret manuals before him.
Refining God True Skills!
Red Flame Divine Skill!
Refining God True Skills was a secret technique for infusing Evil Refining into one's body, and from this, Gu Qingfeng also understood the true nature of the Evil Spirit that Wen Jiao harbored.
A predator of living spirits and brain marrow!
This Refining God True Skills focused on the physical body bearing the Brain Gu.
Among the three Evil Refining techniques, Refining God True Skills was the most powerful.
Simply because, whether it was the Spirit Summoning Treasure Skills or the Longevity Dao Scripture recorded before, the techniques written for refining Evil Refining were only methods for bearing Bone Refining and similar spirits.
For instance, while the Longevity Dao Scripture could host a Shadow Demon, facing a Shadow Demon on par with Marrow Cleansing, relying on the methods of the Longevity Dao Scripture would most likely end in failure.
But Refining God True Skills was different.
This technique for Magicians was a top-ranking secret manual capable of bearing Refining Organ Realm Evil Spirits.
With this alone, it surpassed the previous two manuals.
