Good Fortune Immortal Road

Chapter 28: Defeating a Strong Enemy

Looking at the triumphant four individuals in the field, the disciples of the Netherworld Sect were unusually angry, shouting to teach them a lesson.

Shen Lang's face also showed a hint of seriousness. This concerned the face of the sect, so of course they had to give them a lesson, but it was not yet his turn to take the stage.

Only to see Huang Long, Tu Chuan, Yue Butao, and Leng Yuxuan leaping into the field, each finding their own opponents and starting to fight.

The disciples of the four sects could also feel that the people who came out this time were not like before. Whether it was their cultivation level or the display of their spells, they were far beyond the ordinary disciples from before.

The disciples of the four sects were clearly struggling more than before. The elders of the Netherworld Sect looked at their own disciples pressing the opponents and their expressions improved a lot.

The elders of the four sects on the opposite side couldn't help but feel uneasy. They had originally wanted to use their carefully cultivated disciples to embarrass the Netherworld Sect, but they didn't expect that the disciples who came out easily suppressed the situation.

Faced with the unfavorable situation, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across the faces of the disciples of the four sects. Almost simultaneously, they began to use self-damaging secret techniques, instantly raising their strength to the peak of the Meridian Opening stage.

Under this circumstance, Tu Chuan and the others faced increased pressure, but they were not simple characters either. After all, they were disciples who could participate in the Netherworld Sect's grand competition, so they naturally had their own outstanding qualities.

Facing the enemy's use of secret techniques to increase their strength, Tu Chuan and the others began to defend steadily, adopting a strategy of skirmishing. Although the disciples of the four sects used secret techniques, the sudden increase in strength made it difficult for them to control their own power immediately.

For a while, neither side could do anything to each other. However, the disciples of the Netherworld Sect still had the advantage. When the enemy's secret techniques ended, it would naturally be their time to reap the rewards.

The disciples of the four sects, after using the secret techniques, still couldn't win the match. This made the four of them particularly anxious. They had been blinded by the beautiful promises of their sect's elders before, and did not choose to surrender like the disciples of the Netherworld Sect in unfavorable situations.

However, in the short time it took for an incense stick to burn, their increased strength began to weaken. Tu Chuan and the others took advantage of this opportunity to strike mercilessly. At this moment, the disciples of the four sects realized that the situation was not good. Just as they were about to surrender, Tu Chuan and the others would not give them that chance.

Since they dared to provoke the Netherworld Sect, they had to bear the blow of failure. This opportunity to show themselves, Tu Chuan and the others were all smart people and naturally wouldn't miss it.

At the same time, the four disciples of the Netherworld Sect raised their hands and beheaded the disciples of the four sects. Blood instantly sprayed out, but for all the disciples of the Netherworld Sect present, they naturally cheered loudly, congratulating their own disciples.

The Profound Yang Sect and the other three sects were as if they had lost their souls. Although these four elite disciples were not the most outstanding among the four sects, they could still be ranked in the top ten.

Now they were killed by the disciples of the Netherworld Sect like this. Thinking about the future achievements of these disciples, at the very least they could reach the Gold Core stage and become the backbone of the sect. The hearts of these elders felt as if they were being twisted by a knife.

With a gaze full of killing intent, an elder of the Corpse Demon Sect looked at Tu Chuan and the others on the stage and fiercely ordered a disciple of the sect, his words filled with murderous intent. Then he glanced at Tu Chuan and the others on the stage.

The Corpse Demon Sect's Patriarch would naturally not let the disciples who had made contributions suffer for no reason. He ordered Tu Chuan and the others to step down and let other disciples take the stage to showcase their abilities.

The four people naturally calmed down after hearing the encouragement from the Patriarch. They were also aware that although they had just defeated their opponents, they had also expended a lot of energy. If they continued to push themselves, the other side might have some means to deal with them.

At this time, the four sects also sent out new disciples to the stage. Among them, the disciple from the Profound Yang Sect was handsome and extraordinary, clearly a charming young man.

The disciples from the Ghost Controlling Sect and the White Bone Gate were wrapped in black robes, making it impossible to see their faces. However, the aura emanating from them was not that of ordinary individuals.

The last one to appear was a disciple from the Corpse Demon Sect. He wore a bright purple robe, with his wild and unruly long hair flowing in the wind. His eyes scanned the disciples of the Netherworld Sect present, especially when he saw that Shen Lang was standing behind Patriarch Jiu Jian. His eyes filled with excitement and a hint of killing intent.

This disciple of the Corpse Demon Sect provocatively looked at Shen Lang, licked his lips, and stared coldly at Shen Lang, pointing his sword directly towards Patriarch Jiu Jian. "I wonder if this junior brother dares to come forward and teach me?"

Such disrespectful behavior made many elders of the Netherworld Sect very dissatisfied. How dare he point his sword at Patriarch Jiu Jian? Many elders shouted in unison, "Outrageous!"

The powerful aura forced the disciple of the Corpse Demon Sect to retreat repeatedly, but he gritted his teeth and held his ground. At the same time, he laughed out loud, "I didn't expect that the renowned Netherworld Sect would have such a cowardly person. Since you dare not come, I will find someone else. Is there anyone who dares to fight me?"

Such arrogant attitude completely angered the disciples of the Netherworld Sect, and they shouted one after another, wanting to teach him a lesson.

At this time, An Fu, Jiang Tao, and the others were also furious. They didn't expect this person to be so arrogant, openly challenging Shen Lang. Each of them wanted to step forward and teach him a lesson.

Shen Lang smiled coldly. He was not afraid of this disciple from the Corpse Demon Sect's challenge at all. But the fact that he dared to point at his master was something Shen Lang, as his disciple, could not tolerate.

He bowed to Patriarch Jiu Jian, who responded with a faint smile and a nod, indicating his approval of Shen Lang's request. His eyes also revealed infinite killing intent. As for these small fries, Patriarch Jiu Jian could kill them with just a glance. Instead, he wanted to test the bottom line of these four sects that dared to provoke the Netherworld Sect. After dealing with the major matters within the sect, he would definitely punish these four sects.

He wanted to let them know why the Netherworld Sect and the Yellow Springs Sect were the overlords of the Southern Region. As for those top-tier sects, they should understand that if they could support them to become top-tier sects, they could naturally crush them as well.

Patriarch Jiu Jian snorted and coldly looked at the elders who had come this time. "It seems that I haven't shown my skills for too long, and you have forgotten what I am capable of."

Those who were scanned by Patriarch Jiu Jian couldn't help but shiver involuntarily. They began to feel anxious, but soon their confidence was restored by their target. If they could really bring down the Netherworld Sect, they would also have a place among the top-level sects.

Shen Lang slowly stepped onto the stage, followed by An Fu and the others. Naturally, Shen Lang would deal with this disciple from the Corpse Demon Sect. An Fu and Jiang Yingxue respectively found disciples from the White Bone Gate and the Ghost Controlling Sect, while Jiang Tao was left with the disciples from the Profound Yang Sect.

The disciple from the Corpse Demon Sect looked at Shen Lang, a cruel smile appearing on his lips. "I am Gu Yun, the most outstanding disciple of the Corpse Demon Sect in this generation. May I ask for the junior brother's name?"

"I'm not interested in what a dead person is called, nor do I like to tell a dead person my name," Shen Lang replied coldly to Gu Yun.

Gu Yun on the opposite side showed a sinister look in his eyes. "Hehe, I didn't expect the junior brother to be so confident. Let's see who will be the dead one."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yun directly made his move, and the other three also attacked.

The fist of Gu Yun swiftly struck towards Shen Lang's vital point, gradually enlarging in Shen Lang's line of sight. This punch did not have a earth-shattering effect, but Shen Lang could feel its power.

The momentum brought by Gu Yun's fist sealed off all of Shen Lang's retreat routes, leaving him with no choice but to confront it head-on.

Shen Lang did not back down either. He directly cast a Yin Fire Curse, which, after Shen Lang's enhancement, was now a Rank One spell. However, after integrating with the Ancient Poison Flame, its power was no less than that of three Rank Four spells.

Feeling the extraordinary power of the oncoming Yin Fire, Gu Yun was not worried. The Corpse Demon Sect naturally had spells like the Yin Fire Curse, and Gu Yun was confident that his physical body could withstand it.

With a loud shout, the wind from Gu Yun's fist crackled, stirring up the surrounding air with its powerful impact.

Shen Lang's Yin Fire Curse directly struck Gu Yun's fist, dispersing the curse with a single punch, which was somewhat unexpected for Shen Lang.

Originally, when Shen Lang saw Gu Yun throwing a punch, he used the Yin Fire Curse to make him experience the pain of having his soul burned by the Poison Flame.

However, he did not expect the Yin Fire Curse to be directly dispersed, while the force of the punch on the other side did not weaken in the slightest.

Jiu Jian Lao Zu on the stage also sensed that something was wrong. The fact that the Yin Fire Curse was dispersed with just one punch was evident to the discerning eyes of the old ancestor. Although his disciple's Yin Fire Curse was only a Rank One spell, its power was astonishing. Soon, the old ancestor discovered the problem. Unexpectedly, Gu Yun had refined his fist into a Law Weapon, which was in line with the Corpse Demon Sect's tradition, pursuing the immense physical strength of a corpse demon.

Facing the opponent's imposing momentum, Shen Lang's expression became serious, and he continuously used various spells with his hands.

For a while, Gu Yun could only protect himself repeatedly. Although his fist was like a Law Weapon, other parts of his body clearly had not reached that level.

Soon, Shen Lang also discovered the problem. Gu Yun could only use his fists to resist his spells, avoiding damage to other parts of his body. Since that was the case, Shen Lang would no longer be polite.

Taking out the Ink Attack Sword, also an Apex Level Law Weapon, Shen Lang did not believe that the opponent could withstand it.

He immediately used the Four Spirit Holy Sword Technique, and the sword emitted the illusions of two holy beasts. On the left was the Azure Dragon, while on the right was the White Tiger. The spiritual energy of wind and thunder enveloped these two holy beasts as they mercilessly stabbed towards Gu Yun.

Seeing that Shen Lang finally stopped using troublesome spells and instead focused on attacking with his sword, Gu Yun naturally had no fear. He raised his fists and advanced to meet the attack, forcefully colliding with the two holy beasts.

However, he clearly underestimated them. How could these two holy beasts formed by spiritual energy be so simple? The thunder representing the Azure Dragon and the wind symbolizing the White Tiger.

The wind and thunder spiritual energies complemented each other, boosting each other's momentum and power. Under a single strike, Gu Yun was struck by lightning, his body charred black and covered in numerous wounds from the powerful wind.

Apart from his fists being slightly injured, the rest of his body was severely damaged, with blood staining Gu Yun's entire body red.

With a roar, he charged back into battle with Shen Lang. The threat of the enemy in front of him was no longer significant to Shen Lang, and he did not want to waste too much time.

With a backhand, Shen Lang blocked Gu Yun's fist. Shen Lang snorted coldly, and the sword actually condensed the shadows of all four sacred beasts.

Seeing this, the Wine Sword Ancestor on the stage burst into laughter. His disciple did not disappoint him. In just a few days, he was able to condense the shadows of the four sacred beasts. It seemed that this competition was already settled.

Shen Lang's full power made Gu Yun feel the pressure. However, Gu Yun was not the type to easily admit defeat. As a genius, he naturally had his own pride, even if it meant risking his life.

Shouting at Shen Lang, Gu Yun said, "Impressive! I didn't expect you to be so powerful. Let me learn from you."

Although Gu Yun was covered in blood, he was not seriously injured. At this moment, his fighting spirit was high. He unleashed all his potential and used the forbidden technique of the sect - the Fist of Annihilation.

This was not something an ordinary disciple could display. This set of fist techniques emphasized never giving up. Each punch would increase his strength until one of them fell.

Gu Yun was determined to fight this battle. Neither side would back down. Shen Lang's sword contained four types of spiritual energy. Although it couldn't form a formation, Shen Lang could easily make the four types of spiritual energy complement each other, creating a continuous attack.

Gu Yun's Fist of Annihilation was also a technique used for a life-or-death battle. The two of them exchanged thirteen blows without being able to harm each other.

However, the difference was that Shen Lang relied on the qi of heaven and earth, and his own consumption was much lower than Gu Yun's. Gu Yun's secret technique consumed his own life force. Although it seemed that the two were evenly matched, in the long run, Gu Yun would eventually be defeated.

Gu Yun naturally knew his own situation and looked at Shen Lang with a big smile. "Impressive, disciple of the Netherworld Sect. Let's decide the outcome with one final strike!"

Shen Lang nodded without saying a word. The situation at hand could no longer be stopped, so they had to determine the winner as soon as possible. The elders of the Corpse Demon Sect below the stage were also sweating nervously.

They originally thought Gu Yun would win, but they didn't expect Shen Lang to be even more skilled. Moreover, Gu Yun used the forbidden technique of the Fist of Annihilation. One of them was bound to die.

Whether it was Shen Lang or Gu Yun, they would both be blamed. At this moment, the elders of the Corpse Demon Sect finally regretted why they had come on this trip.

Now, the two in the arena had reached the final life-or-death moment. Taking advantage of the gap in the conversation, Gu Yun gathered all his strength and intended to defeat Shen Lang with one strike.

At the same time, Shen Lang also absorbed more power at this time, and the power of the four sacred beasts on his sword became even stronger.

Gu Yun shouted, "Kill!" His fist broke through the sky and attacked Shen Lang. Shen Lang also shouted, "Slash!" The four sacred beasts on his sword roared and slashed towards Gu Yun.

The two forces collided, and Gu Yun's strength was obviously stronger. However, the four types of spiritual energy in Shen Lang's sword continuously replenished each other, forming a force that was several times stronger than before.

In an instant, this force engulfed Gu Yun, who had no reaction. Gu Yun was directly killed by this powerful force.

Looking at Shen Lang standing straight in the arena, the elder of the Corpse Demon Sect sat down. He didn't expect that even with Gu Yun using the forbidden Fist of Annihilation, he still couldn't defeat Shen Lang, and instead, he lost his own life.
