Before entering the Training Mountain Range, the Sect Leader of the Ghost Killing Sect had secretly informed Gui Kui that not only did he have to get into the top three, but more importantly, he had to kill all the participating disciples of the King Kong Sect.
After entering the Training Mountain Range, Gui Kui was constantly searching for opportunities. As he searched for opportunities, he was also stealing demonic aura.
To Gui Kui, demonic aura was secondary. Opportunities were the most important.
This was because opportunities were not something that could be obtained just because one wanted to. As for demonic aura, even in the end, he could still steal it from others. As long as the other party was not one of the other four geniuses, he could take whatever he wanted.
Gui Kui, who was searching for opportunities, suddenly noticed a strange phenomenon in the sky. He instantly determined that under this phenomenon, a treasure must have been born.
He hurried to the valley, and as expected, it did not disappoint him. This time, it was the Meteoric Iron.
The Meteoric Iron was mostly used as a refining material for ordinary warriors. As long as there was a Master Blacksmith, he could refine the Meteoric Iron into a powerful Spirit Weapon.
However, to Gui Kui, the Meteoric Iron was not only a refining material, but also a material to strengthen his body.
That's right, Gui Kui cultivated the Ghost Killing Sect's Divine Demon Body Refinement. It was said that this Divine Demon Body Refinement was passed down from ancient times.
The Divine Demon Body Refinement of the Ghost Killing Sect was extremely powerful in terms of strengthening the body. Even the King Kong Sect, which was also a Body Refinement Sect, was helpless against the Divine Demon Body Refinement.
In the south, there were countless warriors who wanted to join the Ghost Killing Sect in order to cultivate the Divine Demon Body Refinement.
Gui Kui, the chief disciple of the younger generation of the Ghost Killing Sect, was one of the five geniuses of the south. His cultivation had reached the fourth level of the Qi Hai realm.
If not for the Divine Demon Body Refinement, he would not be able to compete with the other four geniuses. However, with the Divine Demon Body Refinement, Gui Kui's physical strength had reached the terrifying two-star Dao Body.
Moreover, before entering the Training Mountain Range, Gui Kui's physical body had strengthened again, reaching the late two-star Dao Body. He was only one step away from the three-star Dao Body.
One must know that even in the entire Ghost Killing Sect, there were only a few elders who had reached the three-star Dao Body. They could be counted with one hand.
If Gui Kui could reach the three-star Dao Body, he would be able to suppress the other four geniuses and become the leader of the five geniuses.
At that time, his Ghost Killing School was definitely the absolute king of the south.
As for the Meteoric Metal in front of him, it could allow the Ghost Sunflower to fuse with his body and increase the strength of his fleshly body. Of course, all of this originated from the uniqueness of Fiendgod Body Refining.
Therefore, Ghost Sunflower was determined to get the Meteoric Iron.
If it weren't for his Fiendgod Body Refinement, Ghost Sunflower wouldn't have been so eager to obtain Meteoric Iron.
Gui Kui's Celestial Body Tempering had already reached a certain level, so he understood it very well. Therefore, he clearly knew that using Celestial Body Tempering, he could fuse his physical body with the Meteorite Iron. Once the fusion was successful, his physical body would have a chance of reaching a three-star Dao Body.
Thinking of this, Gui Kui's heart was filled with excitement. It was as if all the beautiful scenes had already appeared before his eyes.
Therefore, when Gui Kui saw the Meteoric Metal in front of Fang Chen, his eyes lit up.
"Why is Gui Kui here?" Ye Ming's face darkened when he saw Gui Kui.
"Brother Fang, what should we do?" the four young masters of the Liang family asked worriedly.
Although Fang Chen was strong, they were still a bit worried about the incomparably powerful Gui Kui.
Fang Chen narrowed his eyes as he looked at Gui Kui. His eyes were filled with battle intent. Ever since his strength had increased, he had yet to truly fight.
"I was the one who obtained the Meteoric Iron first, so it belongs to me."
As Fang Chen spoke, he directly put the Meteoric Iron into his spatial ring.
Seeing that, Gui Kui's expression became incomparably gloomy. He icily said, "Today, none of you will be leaving."
Gui Kui's killing intent had been aroused. He wanted to kill all the Vajra Sect's disciples and then take the Meteoric Iron from Fang Chen's hands.
Fang Chen's aura instantly surged out of his body. He stared at Gui Kui with vigilance. A battle could erupt at any moment.
"Do you think you can stop me with just you?" Gui Kui smiled sinisterly. His smile was filled with disdain.
Previously, before the Fengyun Martial Marquis' tomb, he had once attacked Fang Chen. However, that was just a casual punch.
"Do you think you have the right to fight me just because you were able to block my punch?" Gui Kui questioned coldly.
Gui Kui was only at the peak of the Third Level of Qi Hai back then. Now, he was already at the Early Stage of Qi Hai. Although his cultivation base was not as high as the other four geniuses, his strength was not inferior.
Therefore, in his eyes, Fang Chen was just a little ant.
"You guys leave first," Fang Chen said in a deep voice.
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Ye Ming and the rest pondered for a moment. Then, they cupped their hands at Fang Chen and said, "Brother Fang, be careful."
After that, Ye Ming and the rest led the Vajra Sect and Luochen Sword Sect's disciples out of the valley.
However, at that moment, Gui Kui made his move.
He clenched his fist tightly and gathered all the strength in his body on his fist. Then, he threw a punch at Ye Ming and the rest.
"I said that none of you can leave," Gui Kui said coldly.
His fist was directly aimed at Ye Ming and the rest. Seeing this, the latter's expression changed slightly and blocked it angrily.
Bang
Just as Ye Ming used all the strength in his body to block it, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. With a bang, it blocked Gui Kui's fist.
"Go."
Fang Chen roared again. Ye Ming and the rest did not dare to stay and quickly disappeared from the valley.
Seeing this, Gui Kui's face was extremely gloomy. His eyes were scarlet and bloodthirsty. He sneered and said, "Fang Chen, you're courting death."
"So what?" Fang Chen asked.
"I, Gui Kui, will kill you today. After I kill you and take the meteoric iron, I'll go after all the Luochen Sword Sect and Vajra Sect's disciples." Gui Kui said coldly, "You can't stop me."
Bang!
As soon as Gui Kui's voice fell, a tyrannical aura suddenly gushed out from his body. Then, under Gui Kui's control, this aura directly pressed down on Fang Chen's surroundings.
"Coincidentally, I'm also very interested in your Godfiend Body Tempering," Fang Chen said softly as he moved slightly and an extremely dense sword intent appeared around him.
Hearing Fang Chen's words, Gui Kui's face revealed a wild smile. After so many years, this was the first time he had met a warrior who wanted to snatch his Godfiend Body Tempering from him.
"Good, very good. I want to kill you more and more," Gui Kui said coldly.
As soon as Gui Kui's voice fell, the surrounding air suddenly froze. Gui Kui's Two-Star Dao Body was instantly activated. Specks of brilliance appeared on his skin. These specks of brilliance contained a tyrannical power that directly pushed Gui Kui's defense to the extreme.
"Late-stage Two-Star Dao Body?"
Fang Chen saw the specks of brilliance on Gui Kui's skin and said faintly.
Then, Fang Chen also activated his Two-Star Dao Body. However, Fang Chen's Dao Body was slightly weaker than Gui Kui's.
"What?!"
Seeing Fang Chen activate his Dao Body, Gui Kui's face was filled with astonishment.
Back in the Windcloud Martial Marquis' tomb, Fang Chen's Dao Body was only a One-Star Dao Body. How long had it been before his body reached the Two-Star Dao Body?
"If he has Godfiend Body Tempering, what kind of terrifying realm will his body reach?"
At this moment, Gui Kui finally realized Fang Chen's heaven-defying potential. In this way, he had no choice but to kill Fang Chen.
He couldn't let a tiger return to the mountain. Although Fang Chen couldn't be considered a tiger, Gui Kui didn't want to leave behind future troubles.
Therefore, when Gui Kui displayed his Godfiend Body Tempering, he suddenly clenched his fist. Then, specks of brilliance all over his body converged on his fist.
"Godfiend Fist."
Following Gui Kui's shout, the Godfiend Fist was instantly displayed.
In the sky, the sound of thunder resounded. Wherever Gui Kui's fist passed, space would distort.
The Godfiend Fist was born from the Godfiend Body Tempering. Back then, because the Ghost Killing Gate's ancestor obtained the Godfiend Body Tempering, he became a peerless expert and established the Ghost Killing Gate.
Afterwards, the Ghost Killing Gate's ancestor comprehended the Godfiend Fist from the Godfiend Body Tempering. After some modifications, the Godfiend Fist could be passed down.
After that, the Godfiend Body Tempering and the Godfiend Fist became the two ultimate techniques of the Ghost Killing Gate.
The Godfiend Body Tempering was a defensive cultivation technique, while the Godfiend Fist was an offensive cultivation technique. The two complemented each other, and when combined, their power was extremely shocking.
Gui Kui directly used the Godfiend Fist against Fang Chen. It was enough to see how much he wanted to kill Fang Chen.
"Third level of the Water-Fire Sword Art."
Seeing the incomparably tyrannical Godfiend Fist coming at him, Fang Chen didn't hesitate and directly used the third level of the Water-Fire Sword Art.
The Water-Fire Sword Art was originally powerful. Not long ago, Fang Chen had absorbed the perfect variant flame seed, allowing his fire concept to reach the second minor realm. The Water-Fire Sword Art's power had increased once again.
The third level of the Water-Fire Sword Art was inconceivably powerful. This was Fang Chen's strongest offensive sword art.
Whoosh!
The Hidden Dragon Sword in Fang Chen's hand suddenly danced. The tip of his foot lightly flickered on the ground, and a tyrannical water-fire sword light was emitted from the Hidden Dragon Sword.
Roar!
A dragon's roar resounded. The Hidden Dragon Sword in Fang Chen's hand carried a majestic sword intent as it fiercely pierced towards Gui Kui.
At the same time, in the sky, the Water-Fire Sword Light fiercely collided with the Godfiend Fist's light.
Crack!
When the two collided, a deafening sound immediately erupted. Following that, a fanatical aura instantly exploded, engulfing the entire ground.
"En!"
Gui Kui, who had used the Godfiend Fist, felt the power of the Water-Fire Sword Light. His expression changed slightly, and his fist suddenly blasted towards Fang Chen.
Bang!
When the terrifying Qi wave in the sky completely dissipated, Fang Chen's Hidden Dragon Sword also fiercely collided with Gui Kui's fist.
Crack!
The Hidden Dragon Sword directly pierced Gui Kui's fist, instantly breaking through the Godfiend Fist's defense.
Crash!
Gui Kui's fist instantly exploded, and blood flowed out.
Ah!
A miserable cry rang out. Gui Kui's body rapidly retreated, and it took him a lot of effort to stabilize his body.
When he looked at his bloody palm, his eyes were filled with scarlet color.
"What kind of sword art is this? How can it break through my defense?"
Gui Kui's heart was in turmoil. Not only had Fang Chen's sword art broken through his defense, but it had also broken through his Godfiend Fist.
It had to be known that apart from the other four great geniuses, no one in the South had ever been able to put Gui Kui in such a difficult position.
Originally, Gui Kui thought that he could easily kill Fang Chen. However, the result before his eyes exceeded his expectations.
"He wasn't this strong last time." Gui Kui thought to himself.
He looked at Fang Chen with eyes full of shock. In such a short period of time, Fang Chen had actually grown to this extent.
If he was given a little more time, he would definitely be able to crush the five great geniuses.
