Above all spirits

Chapter 477 Women will only slow down my absorption of death energy.

"It seems that the place we just left was the site of the biggest battle on this mountain."

Gu Yun waved his hand and gently grasped a ball of death energy about the size of a fingernail that was floating in his palm.

Death energy enters the body.

The electric current sensation flashed by.

His whole demeanor naturally became even colder.

After several changes, the temperature can now be felt when you are about one zhang away from Gu Yun.

Gu Yun chuckled and said.

"If this continues, people with eyes will think I'm some kind of heretical cultivator just by looking at me."

"Young Gu, you're missing a Myriad Souls Banner. Your aura just doesn't quite feel the same without it. If you don't work hard at cultivation, you'll just be brothers in the Myriad Souls Banner, hehehe."

"Come on, what souls do you beings from the upper realms have to collect? You bunch of guys who use souls as energy."

"That's true, but kid, there are quite a few people watching you around."

Gu Yun narrowed his eyes, then symbolically patted the corner of his clothes, saying indifferently.

"That's normal. The higher you go, the stronger you become. People, once they become confident in something, start to crave that kind of benefit. Demons are no exception."

'Haven't they already witnessed your power? Without even domain power, isn't that just courting death?'

"Mu Wu is right about one thing: demons without domain power will never know where the gap lies. They think they have mastered many characteristics, but in fact, they haven't even mastered a single rule-based characteristic. They can't recognize the gap between themselves and peak demon generals who have mastered domain power, so naturally, they have many ideas."

Although Mu Wu suffered some losses when he first fought the one-horned demon, it was because he used his weakness to defeat his strength.

If we first avoid him and create distance to fight a war of attrition, exhausting the special state of that one-horned demon, then defeating him would probably be as easy as crushing a chicken.

Um...

However, that one-horned demon's power was something else; it could actually forcefully break through the limits.

I haven't even reached the threshold of my own potential yet.

If Gu Yun could experience the feeling of breaking through limits, it might be of great help.

At this time.

In the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees, a silver-white throwing knife cuts through the wind.

The crisscrossing tree branches along the way could not stop it in the slightest; they were all smashed to pieces.

but.

The flying knife didn't seem to be aimed at Gu Yun.

The throwing knife wasn't aimed at Gu Yun's vital areas; its trajectory was simply aimed at the edge of Gu Yun's left shoulder.

A black arc flashed.

"when--!"

The crisp sound of the rebound echoed through the jungle.

Despite the black scythe's counter-attack, the silver-white knife did not fall like a bullet that had lost its power support, but instead nimbly maneuvered around the obstacle.

The next moment.

A dark shadow blocked the sparse light from the lush greenery in front of Gu Yun, completely shrouding her face, which had been radiating a warm glow, in shadow.

"Swish!"

A woman with disheveled silver hair and an enviable figure leaped out of the air, her arms crossed over her head. Although her arms obscured her face, her fair skin and the distinct jawline that was faintly visible made her look as if she had been meticulously sculpted by an artisan, so her appearance must not be bad.

Accompanying this figure was a beam of light slightly inferior to its own first-class special spiritual treasure.

If nothing unexpected happens.

This woman is likely carrying a second-class special spiritual treasure.

Based on the scene before and after, Gu Yun guessed that the woman had probably snatched a second-grade special spiritual treasure and was being chased.

The silver-haired woman seemed to be busy escaping and did not immediately sense Gu Yun's presence. She came straight at Gu Yun, or perhaps Gu Yun deliberately concealed his aura, and was not easily detected by being entangled in death energy.

In short.

If neither side changes course now, then a scene straight out of a famous novel will surely unfold.

A beautiful woman unintentionally falls into the protagonist's arms, but the male protagonist steps in to help her out. In the end, the two team up and develop feelings for each other, eventually leading to a beautiful love story.

All right.

That concludes the discussion.

Some people have no feelings.

Gu Yun raised his leg and kicked the silver-haired figure, sweeping it horizontally. A purple-gold light flashed and wrapped around the figure's leg, and the demon general's physical body, which was nearing its limit, played a huge role at this moment.

"boom!"

Right in the bull's eye.

The woman felt as if she had been struck by a meteorite while turning to the side.

As the pain shot through my waist, I lost my balance and veered to one side like a kite with a broken string, breaking countless tree trunks before finally crashing into the mountainside.

Silver-haired woman: ?

The two men chasing after him, one with a long tail as thick as an arm swaying behind him, and the other with gray barbs on his knuckles, were also looking at Gu Yun with a bewildered expression.

The long-tailed demon was only momentarily distracted before being drawn to the conspicuous beam of light at Gu Yun's waist, a greedy glint flashing in its eyes. The gray-thorned demon, on the other hand, seemed somewhat dull, uttering two words that were almost impossible to utter during the trial.

"Thank you?"

Gu Yun ignored it and planned to take a detour from the other side. Judging from his perception of the death energy, there should be another battleground not far away. Right now, Gu Yun's only focus was on collecting the death energy.

Women will only slow down my absorption of death energy.

Although Gu Yun didn't intend to face trouble, trouble just wouldn't leave him alone, relentlessly pursuing him.

The long-tailed demon tossed the three silver throwing knives in its hand, its eyes occasionally glancing at the small knife at Gu Yun's waist, and spoke.

"Your special magical artifact is so dazzling!"

"It's even more dazzling than a second-grade special spiritual treasure, could it be a first-grade special spiritual treasure?"

nonsense.

Even the punctuation marks are superfluous.

In this regard.

Gu Yunniao doesn't even bring birds.

With a light step, his body leaped into the air, then hovered in mid-air, looking down and searching for the place where deathly energy was rising.

Upon seeing this, a hint of gloom flashed in the eyes of the Long-tailed Demon.

Originally, he planned to offer to share some of the pressure with Gu Yun and negotiate to jointly possess a first-class special spiritual treasure, which would effectively increase his own points.

But Gu Yun didn't give him a chance to continue.

The gray-thorned demon beside him scratched its head and said...

"Big brother, should we still try to steal that second-grade special spiritual treasure from that woman?"

"We might not be able to defeat this demon."

The Longtail Demon snorted coldly, not refuting the Graythorn Demon's words. Judging from the methods Gu Yun had just demonstrated, the two of them were indeed no match for him. He said in a low voice, displeased.

"Rob it, why wouldn't we rob it?"

"Let's secure a spot in the Heavenly Guard by getting a second-class special spiritual treasure first."

He then slightly raised his head and glanced at the dark figure in the air.

Although there was a hint of fear in his eyes, his desire was more of a greedy lust.

I thought to myself.

Let's see how long you can maintain this momentum.

There will definitely be demons making their move.

This kind of high-quality spiritual treasure is not so easy to guard.

Since you've refused, don't blame us for getting involved later.

"go!"

The long-tailed demon's face was slightly ferocious. With a sudden flick of its tail, it snapped countless flowers and plants before leaping towards the silver-haired woman.

The gray thorn demon on the side followed suit, stepping forward rapidly.
