Chapter 252 Fight till Death (Three more updates of ten thousand words, subscription needed!)"_1

Gu Chen had truly not anticipated that so many grandmasters had been lying in ambush here, intending to kill and eliminate him.

If one included that person from the Black Sky Sect, there were already a total of four martial grandmasters present.

Gu Chen's black hair was disheveled, strands soaked with blood, and his body bore many wounds—all inflicted by the silver long shuttle earlier, with some so deep his bones could be seen.

But at this moment, miraculously, the numerous wounds on Gu Chen's body began to heal—such was the power of the Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic.

With his current level of cultivation, Gu Chen could only unleash part of the Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic's might; after all, it was an Earth Grade technique with many wondrous aspects still waiting for him to discover.

Even so, the speed at which his injuries were healing was deserving of being classed among Earth Grade techniques.

Not only that, after the earlier battle, the Great Sun Divine Gang within Gu Chen had been greatly consumed, but the recovery rate afforded by the Great Sun Divine Illumination True Classic was also extremely fast. Therefore, although Gu Chen appeared to be grievously injured at this moment, he was not far from his peak condition.

And as someone with a body as indestructible as Vajra, his divine strength was endless. Battling in succession had little effect on him.

Sensing the sharp attack from behind, Gu Chen forcefully resisted using his left hand; he swiftly turned around and used his right hand, which wielded the Blood Shadow Sword, to block.

Concealed within the flesh of his left hand was a superior-grade divine weapon—Gu Chen's trump card, which he did not wish to reveal lightly unless faced with a life-or-death moment like before.

Ding!

Gu Chen slashed forward with the Blood Shadow Sword, hitting the blood-colored claw directly. The two collided, sparking countless sparks.

It turned out to be a lower-grade divine weapon!

Whoosh!

Gu Chen stepped on the Controlling Wind Step Shadows, his speed swift as light, reaching Wu Xin's proximity in an instant. His body was engulfed in blazing flames, hair alight with fire, resembling a fiery deity bathed in flame, intimidating to behold.

Wu Xin, having observed Gu Chen's terrifying power while hidden, knew she could not match him in close combat. Her figure flickered undeterminably, and with a swift movement, she retreated backward, her speed not even a fraction slower than Gu Chen's.

As an assassin, or rather a hitman, Wu Xin naturally sought to perfect her light body technique, always believing that true assassination essence lay in approaching without casting a shadow and leaving without leaving a trace.

Hiss, hiss, hiss!

In the void, suddenly, hundreds of glimmers of cold light flashed by—those were countless hair-thin silver needles, condensed from Wu Xin's true gang, all aiming at Gu Chen.

Boom!

Gu Chen's body shone brilliantly, a surge of golden light spreading from his skin. At this moment, Gu Chen's entire being seemed cast from gold, resembling glittering luminous glass, crystal clear, yet also ablaze, exuding an extraordinary martial aura.

Before the hundreds of silver needles even approached him, they were incinerated by the intense heat emanating from Gu Chen's Great Sun Divine Gang and Pure Yang True Body.

Wu Xin exclaimed, "Thousand Thread Finger!"

At that moment, Wu Xin extended her finger, gently tapping forward. Countless strands of true gang gathered, intertwining into a large net shimmering with cold light, aimed to envelop Gu Chen from afar.

"Roar!"

Gu Chen used the Eight Desolate Azure Dragon Strength, and instantly, five azure dragon shadows burst forth, each several zhang in length, charging directly at Wu Xin with unstoppable force.
