Chapter 363 The Origin of Gu Imperial City
Long Xuan's expression suddenly froze.
What a sudden disaster, he can catch up with this kind of thing.
Who am I, the Gu King? I am just a Spirit Sea stage Gu cultivator, and I am not seeking death by participating in this mission.
That was an old demon who refined the Forbidden Gu. Based on his own level, he probably had all his spiritual energy sucked before he even got close. This time he was pretending to be the Gu King too much.
Facing the demon-slaying order from Gu Imperial City, he really couldn't refuse.
When Shi Haojun went around massacring the city to attract the Demon-Slaying Order from Gu Imperial City, he had learned about the origin of Gu Imperial City in detail.
Gu Imperial City has a very long history, which can be traced back to the time when the Gu cultivating civilization was just born.
In that extremely distant period, a man named Gu created his own way of Gu. Gu spread the word everywhere and cultivated the first batch of Gu cultivators in the human race. Therefore, Gu was listed as one of the ancestors of humans.
Gu Imperial City was built by Gu. The purpose of establishing Gu Imperial City was to gather the power of all Gu cultivators in the world to jointly fight against the invasion from foreign races.
At that time, the ground was full of various alien races. The human race was extremely weak and could only survive by hiding in the cracks of the major alien races.
It is precisely because of the power of Gu Imperial City that the Gu cultivators in the world unite together to preserve the human race on the earth.
As time went by, under the leadership of Gu, the Gu cultivators in Gu Imperial City destroyed powerful alien races one after another. The human race gradually came to dominate this land and became the protagonist of this land.
When most of the alien races were wiped out and Gu also died in the battle, Gu Imperial City was not disbanded due to Gu's death.
Gu Imperial City began to choose Gu Emperor again, and the meaning of Gu Imperial City's existence also began to change from fighting against foreign races to maintaining the stability of the human race.
Once a major event occurs in the world that can cause widespread death of the human race, Gu Imperial City will gather the strength of all human race experts to jointly fight the crisis.
Killing the demon who refined the Forbidden Gu is one of the major events that Gu Imperial City must intervene in.
Gu Imperial City is a public organization. Every once in a while, the strongest people in the world will be selected to join Gu Imperial City. The members of Gu Imperial City have different surnames, and the strongest among the members will be the Gu Emperor.
Therefore, Gu Imperial City has become the largest force in the Gu world, and it has firmly occupied the throne of the first force in all ages from ancient times to the present.
There are so many powerful people in Gu Imperial City, gathering strong men from all over the world. Once Gu Imperial City conveys an order to a certain force under the righteousness, it is impossible for this force to refuse no matter how strong it is.
To defy Gu Imperial City is to defy the whole world.
How could Long Xuan dare to openly disobey the Demon Slaying Order?
He could only touch his hand to the storage ring. The Baili Talisman inside that could allow him to escape at any time made him feel at ease.
Just like that, Long Xuan walked towards the Great Buddha Temple with a group of strong men from Xijiang Pavilion with a confused look on his face...
The Great Buddha Temple is a Buddhist power, and Buddhism is compassionate. The monks in the Great Buddha Temple do not kill any living beings. When monks who practice Gu, they will only let the Gu insects eat non-living materials when refining the Gu to avoid killing.
Buddhist Gu Insects are another major Gu Insect sect, and they are extremely powerful.
Under the powerful power of Buddhist Gu insects, the Great Buddha Temple has become one of the five most powerful forces in the Yanting Empire, and is as famous as Xijian Pavilion.
Long Xuan didn't know why the Gu Imperial City law enforcement officer wanted all the Gu kings involved in the demon elimination mission to gather at the Great Buddha Temple.
But he didn't ask more and could only let it go.
A few hours later, a flying boat engraved with a sword flew across the sky and slowly landed in a temple.
There are golden Buddha statues everywhere in this temple. Some Buddha statues are extremely tall, even up to 100 meters high. They stand in front of the mountain and reflect the golden brilliance under the sunlight.
There are many monks in the temple. Although there are many monks, they are extremely quiet. Buddhism is a pure place, far away from the hustle and bustle of other places.
As soon as Long Xuan landed on the ground and listened to the sounds of chanting sutras around him, his mood suddenly calmed down a lot.
Following the crowd around the Buddhist temple, Long Xuan walked into a secret room with a large space. Here he finally met the other Gu kings who participated in the mission of eliminating demons. There were quite a few of them, roughly estimated to be a hundred.
You must know that this is a rare group of Gu kings. The number of Gu kings exceeding one hundred is definitely a frightening number.
After the Xijian Pavilion and the others entered the secret room, all the Gu kings in the room immediately looked over, scanning the seven or eight sword queens of the Xijian Pavilion, and finally stopped at the unfamiliar face of Long Xuan.
The Demon Slaying Order mobilized manpower from nearby places, so everyone here basically knew each other. Apart from the ten Gu cultivators from Gu Imperial City, only Long Xuan was an unfamiliar face. Of course, they had to take a second look.
"Lei Enforcer, how many people are still here?"
An old man in black robes in the room took the lead in asking.
Long Xuan looked at the old man. The old man was very imposing and not as humble as the others when they saw Gu Imperial City enforcing the law.
In addition, he was the first to speak, so Long Xuan expected that this person's identity and status were definitely good. Not surprisingly, he should be one of the strongest among the Gu kings in this room, and would be the main force against Duan Tianwu. .
Seeing Long Xuan's eyes looking at this person, Pavilion Master Ren on the side used soul transmission to introduce him: "This person's name is Qin Manyuan. He is the number one expert in the royal family of the Yanting Empire. His combat power is about the same as mine."
"I didn't expect that the royal family would send so many strong men to participate in this mission. The Qin family dispatched almost twenty Gu kings, which is definitely the force with the largest number of Gu kings here."
"Sending so many Gu Kings, aren't they afraid of heavy losses in the mission to eliminate demons?"
Pavilion Master Ren's eyes flashed, and he guessed: "Duan Tianwu killed many Gu kings in the Yan Ting Empire in that battle, including a large number of Qin's Gu kings."
"The Qin family sent out so many people this time, and Qin Manyuan led the team. It seems that the Qin family came for revenge and had the intention of killing Duan Tianwu." Pavilion Master Ren's eyes narrowed.
Law enforcement officer Lei beside Pavilion Master Ren counted the number of people in the room and finally said: "Counting the ten people from our Gu Imperial City, there are now a total of one hundred and twenty-five Gu Kings in the room. This is how we will eliminate the demons this time. The mission is finally staffed.”
Hearing this, the faces of all the Gu kings in the room changed slightly. They looked at each other and stopped talking.
Although these manpower may kill Duan Tianwu, who has not yet fully fledged, but if there are more Gu kings and the damage is shared by each family, the losses of all forces will naturally be smaller. Of course, they hope to participate in this mission. The more Gu Kings there are, the better.
Qin Manyuan's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Are the number of people a little small? This is the only chance to kill Duan Tianwu. We must not be careless. Once we fail this time, it will be difficult to deal with him again."
"To be on the safe side, I suggest that we summon at least three hundred Gu Kings to encircle and suppress him. Expect the enemy to be lenient. Only such a number of Gu Kings can ensure nothing goes wrong."
As soon as this was said, all the Gu kings in the room nodded in agreement.
"Hmph! I think you want to use the number of people to share the damage, so as to preserve the Qin family's strength to the greatest extent, right?"
Law enforcement officer Lei glanced at him, then scanned the faces of all the Gu kings in the secret room, and said sternly: "Everyone is afraid of death. I can understand your thoughts."
"I'm also afraid of death. I also want to use the Demon-Slaying Order to recruit more people. After I have greater confidence, I can then encircle and suppress Duan Tianwu."
"Who doesn't want to be more stable? But we don't have much time left. Time doesn't allow me to mobilize more manpower."
"I have already mobilized all the Gu kings nearby. It will take time to mobilize the Gu kings further away. It can be as short as a few months or as long as half a year."
"You also know how fast Duan Tianwu who has swallowed the devil's poison can practice very quickly. He can cultivate to the peak of the King of Gu in less than a few months."
"What's the use of recruiting more Gu Kings then? I'm afraid even ten times more Gu Kings won't be enough for him to suck."
"So now is the best time for us to take action. The longer it takes, the worse it will be for us. We'd better take action today."
All the Gu kings in the room looked contemplative. Yes, Duan Tianwu was once the peak Gu king. There was no bottleneck in his cultivation. With the demon-swallowing Gu in hand, he only needed to continue to absorb people's spiritual power and cultivate to the level of Gu king. It really won't take long to reach the peak.
It seems that the more people there are, the higher the chance of winning, but in fact it is quite the opposite. Once they spend time gathering more Gu Kings, the chance of winning will become smaller and smaller. It is because they did not think carefully.
Seeing that everyone in the room had been persuaded by him, Law Enforcement Lei said again: "Don't worry, these more than a hundred Gu Kings are enough."
"You should have heard of Lei Wan, right? If Lei Wan takes action, do you still think you can't defeat this person?" Law enforcement officer Lei showed a strong look of confidence.
Hearing this, all the Gu kings in the room looked shocked. After hearing this name, many people's confidence in this battle increased a lot.
Lei Wan's reputation is so great that even though he is thousands of miles away, many people in Middle-earth have heard of him.
The Southern Territory is divided into seventy-two frontiers, among which the middle frontier is the strongest.
And Lei Wan is the strongest person in Zhongjiang. He is definitely as famous as Duan Tianwu, the strongest person in Middle-earth at that time. His combat ability may be between the two.
Lei Wan possesses the Thunder Punishment Body, one of the top ten strange bodies, which can control the powerful power of thunder. His combat power is unrivaled at the same level. With this kind of physique, his combat power can be ranked in the first echelon in the entire world.
The most important thing is that the thunder punishment released by the thunder punishment body can specifically defeat demon cultivators. In addition, he is two levels higher than Duan Tianwu. With him taking action, the chance of winning this battle will be extremely high. (End of chapter)
