Gu Yuchuan's departure left the two of them somewhat embarrassed. They hadn't expected the Dragon God to be so decisive, setting off immediately after explaining the situation, without even continuing the banquet.

However, this also made them truly believe in Gu Yuchuan's identity.

These beings, born in accordance with the will of heaven and earth, have only one mission: to save the world. They are often not good at other things, just like interpersonal relationships today.

Their final fate was actually predetermined, with only two possibilities: either after saving the world, Heaven would reclaim their destiny, and they would either dissipate into the essence of the world or become ordinary people. It could be considered a case of discarding them after they've served their purpose.

The second outcome is failure, in which case one will naturally perish along with the world, and there's no point in thinking about the future.

In short, these beings, born of destiny, generally do not have a good ending, since their purpose is to save the world.

Xinghe Sword Immortal also stood up from his seat: "Fellow Daoist, hurry back to the sect, gather the disciples, and prepare to fight. This is our only chance. Let's fight the demons. If we win, there is still a way to survive in this world. If we lose, we will not continue to live a miserable life."

These years of concessions have left the two Nascent Soul stage experts exhausted. All their thoughts are intertwined in their eyes. They share only one thought: to kill to their hearts' content, even if it means death, to kill as many demons as possible.

Soon, all the righteous cultivators in the world left their sects and began to slay demons and monsters. At this time, Gu Yuchuan also arrived at the palace. He could feel the strong demonic aura in the air.

This demonic aura is extremely complex; it's not just pure demonic energy. It also contains Buddhist magic, the aura of the dragon race, and even human dragon energy. It seems that this centipede demon's cultivation is indeed very chaotic.

This actually narrows one's own path. A cultivator can only have one main path; the others are secondary and cannot be pursued in parallel. Just like Gu Yuchuan's path of divinity, it is only auxiliary. He has only acquired a rank, but in reality, he has never actively cultivated it. His path is still only the path of immortality.

However, this centipede demon is different. It seems that the pathways within his body are all his main cultivation paths, so he actually has no possibility of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

Of course, this isn't entirely without its advantages. At the very least, this centipede demon is quite powerful in its current state.

"You audacious monster, you deserve to die!"

Gu Yuchuan didn't care how powerful he was. Even if he was at the eighth or ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, so what? He was confident that he could kill him completely.

Soon, a thin monk emerged. He looked like an ascetic, without any ruthlessness, but Gu Yuchuan recognized him at a glance. He was the centipede demon, Cihang Pudu, the most powerful demon in the mortal realm.

In the movies and TV shows, he devoured all the officials and was just one step away from becoming a dragon. Such a prodigy was already very powerful. However, meeting Gu Yuchuan was just bad luck for him.

He carried a strong aura of resentment from the dragon race, which any dragon could sense. This meant that he had indeed killed a dragon, and he deserved to die.

After Gu Yuchuan became a dragon, he felt a sense of belonging to the dragon race. When he saw the centipede demon killing its own kind, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

"Centipede Demon, I am a dragon born of Heaven, born to cleanse the world of demons. You have committed so many evil deeds in the mortal realm, and today, you are destined to die by my hand."

It's clear that this centipede demon has a high level of Buddhist cultivation; at the very least, he's calm and composed, maintaining the demeanor of a master.

“Esteemed benefactor, your constant use of the term ‘centipede demon’ is truly insulting. I am a member of the dragon race, a Buddhist monk, and a cultivator below the Eight Heavenly Dragons. I will not tolerate such insults from you.”

Gu Yuchuan spat directly: "You dare to say that? The Eight Heavenly Dragons are a position and power that the Dragon Clan obtained in Buddhism with great effort. Their position is equivalent to that of some Arhats. Even a true dragon cannot reach the threshold of the Eight Heavenly Dragons. You are just a centipede demon who devoured one of my Dragon Clan's dragons. Do you really think you are a Dragon Clan member? Today, I will avenge that member of my clan."

Having said that, he gripped his spear tightly. He had no intention of wasting time arguing with this centipede demon. Such a monster should be killed. He had already sensed that the world was in chaos, and the righteous path and the demons had begun their battle. He naturally couldn't fall behind.

He quickly arrived at the centipede demon's side, his spear seemingly piercing through everything in its path. The centipede demon produced a magic sword, and the two clashed.

The fight unleashed the ferocity within the centipede demon. As a demon himself, he had committed so much slaughter; he was not a righteous cultivator at all. When he wasn't fighting, he could conceal himself with his Buddhist cultivation, but once he started fighting, there was no way he could hide anything.

Sure enough, the overwhelming demonic aura engulfed the entire palace, and many mortals cried out for help.

After just one collision, the centipede demon felt a sharp pain in its tiger's mouth, indicating that its strength and physical cultivation were far inferior to its opponent's. A sense of apprehension arose in its heart.

He's a cultivator at the eighth level of the Nascent Soul stage, and his cultivation level is higher than Gu Yuchuan's. This is a difference in cultivation level between the late Nascent Soul stage and Gu Yuchuan. Logically speaking, this difference should be huge. How could this be?

However, while his physical body is lacking, he is not the kind of single-minded monster when it comes to magical power.

A dense Buddhist light appeared behind him, illuminating him and making him look like a truly enlightened monk.

"Demon dragon, how dare you slander this humble monk like this? Witness the Buddha's light of this humble monk!"

The Buddha's light rushed over quickly, and wherever it went, even space itself seemed to collapse. However, Gu Yuchuan sensed a trace of demonic energy within the Buddha's light.

It's truly ironic. The Buddha's light is a cornerstone of Buddhism, a supernatural power specifically used to subdue demons and monsters. Yet now it's filled with demonic energy. This is truly incongruous. If a great master of Buddhism could see this, he would definitely take action and kill this centipede demon himself. He is really bringing shame to Buddhism.

There are actually quite a few demons within Buddhism, and even some Buddhas are demons themselves. However, once they enter Buddhism, they renounce their demonic aura and are not like him. His Buddha light is simply a joke.

Gu Yuchuan activated his Golden Light Mantra. He still felt threatened by the Buddha's light, but when it struck the Golden Light Mantra, it only caused some ripples and did not cause any effective attack.

Now, the centipede demon's ferocity was fully unleashed.

"What a magnificent dragon! This humble monk ate one but didn't advance in rank. I wonder if eating a second one will truly transform me into a dragon and become my food! Demonic dragon!"
