Stronger by Killing

Gu Zhan’s face was calm as he glanced at the two, gently tugged the reins, and rode forward alone.

The Red Fire Dragon Steeds first trotted, then broke into a gallop,

In the wind and snow, a solitary rider headed straight for Dao Ma Pass,

At that moment, everyone was stunned,

"Is he really planning to attack the pass alone?"

Ji Fu’s face was aghast as he watched Gu Zhan break away from the troops and rush toward Dao Ma Pass.

Lü Chang was also shocked as he looked around, confirming Yunxi’s army had no movement before swallowing nervously and saying, "Is he... really so arrogant that he sees no one?"

"It’s said he once chased Yunxi’s sixty thousand Martial World experts by himself," Ji Fu’s face twitched fiercely as he said, "He doesn’t actually think this army’s siege is akin to those ragtag Martial World crowds, does he? This is Dao Ma Pass, bolstered by an array, even armies must sacrifice lives to breach it!"

Lü Chang chuckled lightly, saying, "Fine, let this child pay the price for his arrogance today, and let the White Lotus Sect polish him up for us!"

Ji Fu also showed a faint smile on his face.

At this moment,

Aboard the army, Divine Monk Huai Su, Tai’e Divine Nun, and another Land Immortal from the Court couldn’t conceal their astonishment.

The Land Immortal chuckled lightly, saying, "Ah, young people nowadays, Divine Monk, Divine Nun, I fear you’ll have to assist in rescuing Marquis Gu later, though this lad is solitary and arrogant, he’s still Marquis of Great Xia, can’t let him perish here!"

Divine Monk Huai Su and Tai’e Divine Nun exchanged a glance and smiled,

They naturally understood that the main reason these people didn’t want Gu Zhan killed wasn’t for the Court’s face, but for the Method of Divine Sight Gu Zhan possessed.

"Amitabha!"

Divine Monk Huai Su recited a Buddhist mantra and slowly lifted his head.

At this time, the once snowy sky had become somewhat empty, the snow seemed to stop, and the clouds above rolled continuously.

And at this moment,

Below Dao Ma Pass,

Gu Zhan was dragging a saber, swiftly charging on horseback, a vast swirling snowstorm was forming behind him, as he raised his saber, like a terrifying tidal wave soaring to the sky, rolling toward Dao Ma Pass.

On Dao Ma Pass,

The dense White Lotus Army wore solemn expressions, each master revealing their prowess, many Grandmasters unleashing their Dharma Golden Body, vast and mighty.

The Three Saints of the White Lotus stood on the city wall, glimpses of shock exchanged through their eyes.

"This, Gu Zhan, actually wants to single-handedly attack the pass?"

"Indeed, the rumors of his extreme arrogance are true!"

"..."

"No more idle talk," Xuan Sheng interrupted their discussion, saying, "Brace yourselves, activate the Grand Array, Gu Zhan could kill several Land Immortals, his strength is not to be underestimated, be wary, don’t let this titan overturn our plans, such a figure would certainly have something to rely on!"

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom..."

In an instant, thunder rolled and exploded, clouds churned, torrential rain suddenly poured from the sky, as if the Milky Way was cascading down, dense lightning as thick as tree trunks surged toward the walls of Dao Ma Pass.

"Boom" "Boom"

A series of thunderous and terrifying sounds exploded throughout the heavens and earth, continuously pounding against the walls of Dao Ma Pass.

And at that moment,

Those masters atop Dao Ma Pass were all resisting the thunder.

Meanwhile, a black silhouette rose within the lightning, enveloped by dense bolts, carrying the divine might of the heavens, akin to the gods intervening, such a scene, such momentum, stunned tens of thousands on both sides.

Gu Zhan raised a Horizontal Saber, drawing forth dense lightning, as if grasping the entire firmament, terrifying lightning continued to flash and gather, crossing the void, exceedingly fearsome, his figure leading a storm of lightning toward Dao Ma Pass as if to destroy the heavens and earth.

In the sky, the lightning and thunder endlessly emitted muffled booms, reminiscent of something dreadful about to descend upon this world, as if night had suddenly fallen, lightning’s brilliance spread, the downpour wildly swept, aligning with the thunder rushing towards Dao Ma Pass, lightning and rain, at that moment, seemed to engulf the entire mighty pass.

Such an apocalyptic scene,

Startled countless individuals, friend or foe, tens of thousands in the army found the sight unbelievable, that god-like figure etched into many minds at that moment.

And those Land Immortals of the Grotto Heaven Realm couldn’t conceal their shock,

At this moment, they finally understood,

Why Gu Zhan possessed the reputation of being the best in the world,

Such a sight, such terror,

To ordinary people, indistinguishable from a deity!

"No wonder he dares attack the city alone!"

Xuan Sheng snorted coldly and immediately formed magic formulas, shouting, "Form the array!"

Instantly,

Led by the Three Saints of the White Lotus, with many White Lotus Sect masters assisting, a gigantic array emerged, the cloud sea enveloping the sky surged suddenly, at the center of the cloud sea, the cloud energy swiftly gathered, instantly covering Dao Ma Pass.

Right after, at the center of the array,

Terrifying divine rays, in an unbearably fearsome speed, shot violently toward Gu Zhan in the sky.

And as Gu Zhan slashed with the saber,

Countless lightning and those rays collided in an instant, in a flash, the entire sky was pressed into oblivion by that overwhelming energy.

"Boom" "Boom" At that moment, boundless airwaves erupted like tidal waves hitting the shore, majestically vast, enveloping the heavens and earth, the buzzing sound resonated throughout, causing the earth to tremble, light falling, the void boiling, a haze covering all. This clash was unimaginably terrifying.

Amidst the chaos,

Gu Zhan’s body erupted with a golden brilliance, in the firmament, he suddenly swung a saber downward toward Dao Ma Pass, the dreadful saber roar pierced through the skies, causing the heavens to scream in anger, setting off towering pressure, seemingly splitting half the sky, striking toward the Three Saints of the White Lotus on Dao Ma Pass.

"Hmph!"

Xuan Sheng snorted coldly, instantly wielded a weapon, combining the force of the array, unparalleled in might, clanging as it collided with the Horizontal Saber, sparks flying.

"Ant challenging a tree, mantis trying to stop a cart!"

Xuan Sheng shouted angrily, "Strike, suppress this insolent brat!"

As soon as the words fell,

A throng of masters attacked once more, the array oscillated again, terrifying forces rippling like waves in the sky, a massive light beam once again hammered towards Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan’s body floated in mid-air, instantly clenched his fist, boldly diving downward, at that moment,

It seemed as if dragon roars and elephant trumpets appeared in the heavens, furiously bellowing,

As Gu Zhan’s fist descended,

In the sky appeared nine heavenly dragons and nine celestial elephants, tall as the sky, raising their heads and roaring, shattering tenfold clouds, immensely grand, shocking to the core, the void exploded, echoing for miles.

A single punch descended instantly,

The array shuddered and ruptured,

The walls swayed and collapsed!
