Stronger by Killing

At a time when the world cast its eyes upon Yunzhou,

Yunzhou itself was in turmoil. Although it hadn’t encountered the phenomenon of an Immortal Sect emerging, the local Government Offices and Martial World were in a state of panic, frantically inquiring about the situation to the current ruler of Yunzhou, Prince Wu’s Mansion.

However, even the entire Prince Wu’s Mansion was bewildered.

Since Celestial Martial King Gu Zhan went to Sword King County, he had not returned. Facing the panic from all quarters, only Sword One, as the special envoy of Celestial Martial King Gu Zhan, responded to the Government Offices and Martial World across Yunzhou with a brief message:

Don’t panic, I will take action!

After this decree was sent out to various places, it failed to calm the chaos and even provoked ridicule from many across the world.

Whether it was the Xia Kingdom or any other countries, many mocked Gu Zhan for being arrogant, thinking he had not clearly seen the current situation. With the descent of the Immortal Sects, the former glory and rules had disappeared, yet Gu Zhan remained trapped in his reputation as the world’s number one, unable to extricate himself.

Moreover, the previously overwhelming craze brought about by Gu Zhan for the Method of Divine Sight had faded during this time. Although it was not completely ignored, it indeed got overshadowed by the frenzy for Cultivation, even causing many people and forces within Yunzhou to leave in search of Immortal Fate.

There were also many who had failed to be selected by Prince Wu’s Mansion to obtain the Method of Divine Sight and began to mock those who succeeded, creating a wave of gratitude for being rejected by Prince Wu’s Mansion. All of a sudden, Prince Wu’s Mansion seemed to have become a grand joke.

In the human world, in July, the summer was intensely hot.

The craze for the descent of the Immortal Sects intensified, with more and more traces of Immortal Sects appearing.

On Sword King Mountain, it was still somewhat cold,

Gu Zhan descended from the sky, landing on Sword King Mountain. He dragged a small mountain the size of a palace and threw it directly on the Spirit Gathering Array on Sword King Mountain. This small mountain was bare, with only a single Celestial River Tea Tree exuding a blood-red glow.

This tea tree, entirely blood-red, seemed as if red blood was flowing through it, appearing unusually bizarre and exquisite.

Kou Baimen flew over from the distance, joyfully saying, "Prince, is this the Celestial River Tea Tree of the Celestial Star Cave’s Treasure Technique?"

Gu Zhan lightly nodded and said, "It is indeed a rare Treasure Technique, no wonder Huang Longzi valued those tea leaves so much."

"Indeed," Kou Baimen said, "just one cup of tea can equal a year’s hard cultivation for me!"

Gu Zhan chuckled lightly and said, "But, the Celestial Star Cave is truly poor. Aside from this thing, I didn’t manage to gain anything else!"

Kou Baimen laughed, "After six thousand years in that barrier, the Celestial Star Cave’s foundation was almost exhausted." Saying this, Kou Baimen then asked, "Prince, what about the situation in that Boundary Mini Grotto Heaven of the Celestial Star Cave?"

Gu Zhan furrowed his brows and said, "There were thirty or forty cultivators in the Celestial Star Cave. I smacked them all to death with one palm. As for the ordinary people inside, because Huang Longzi and a few others did not seal the passage, a lot of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi poured in during that time, almost all the ordinary people died, only a very few survived, and they too won’t live for long."

Kou Baimen asked again, "By the way, what about those girls who were tricked inside before..."

Gu Zhan’s brows tightened, he pondered for a while and said, "Do you know that close relatives getting married can result in deformed children?"

Kou Baimen shook her head.

Gu Zhan said, "Children born from close relatives marrying tend to be deformed. Moreover, the barrier of the Celestial Star Cave wasn’t large to begin with, so naturally, when people were led inside, it wasn’t many. Over thousands of years, generation after generation, deformity upon deformity, there weren’t many normal people left, most were very ugly, and some could even be described as bizarre."

Gu Zhan did not go into detail,

but when he entered the barrier and saw the people inside, it truly shocked him. It was a very deformed tribe, like the appearance of Baiyun Immortal Child before, was indeed rare.

"So, imagine in a place where most people are quite ugly, what would happen if dozens of flowery little girls entered?" Gu Zhan asked.

Kou Baimen’s face changed.

She could roughly imagine what kind of purgatory life those girls were experiencing.

Gu Zhan sighed and said, "They all became tools of desire, most were tormented to death. When I found the barrier entrance and got inside, there were four or five still alive, but they were already crazy. After I destroyed the Celestial Star Cave, they all committed suicide!"

Kou Baimen sighed and said, "If only I could have researched a way to enter the barrier earlier, perhaps I could have... They were all girls in their prime, they should have... alas!"

Gu Zhan’s face was indifferent and said, "This is just the tip of the iceberg. The descent of the Immortal Sects, a high and mighty class emerges, and the mundane people at the bottom, huh!"

With a cold laugh, Gu Zhan did not say much.

Kou Baimen nodded and said, "I can probably guess, Prince, just during the days you went to look for the Celestial Star Cave barrier, many major events happened across all kingdoms!"

Gu Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly,

In the initial period of the Immortal Sects’ descent, he was busy in Sword King City sorting and organizing the documents left by the Celestial Star Cave, understanding the Cultivation Realm. After gaining sufficient understanding, he found the Magic Technique to enter the barrier and went to the depths of Sword King Mountain to find the Boundary Mini Grotto Heaven of the Celestial Star Cave. During this period, he was truly unaware of the happenings outside.

Kou Baimen said softly, "Across all kingdoms, they are in disarray, the worst being the Beiwei Kingdom’s Royal Family and the Song Kingdom’s Royal Family. The Beiwei Kingdom’s Royal Family was massacred, the men killed, the Empress, Princesses, concubines, and other women were sent to brothels established by Cultivation Sects, the entire Imperial City of Song Kingdom was sacrificed by an Evil Sect, leaving not a single survivor."
