Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 219 The Sword of Laws Returns to the Desolate City!

The sudden appearance of Li Chengfeng left Gu Jiancheng completely bewildered.

But he soon discovered that the phantom was just a remnant of the person's obsession.

Perhaps, it's just to protect the last piece of pure land in this ancient building.

hum!

The Crimson Sky Sword in his hand also emitted a mournful cry, as if it were a final swan song.

Accompanied by the roar of a dragon, the blazing sword energy surged forth from within the ancient building, instantly transforming into a colossal form tens of thousands of feet tall, seemingly poised to annihilate the entire abyss, shattering the void itself.

This sword strike has completely transcended the realm of swordsmanship.

This sword strike, its mastery is so profound, it has reached the realm of laws!

That requires reaching the peak of the Saint Realm, or even becoming a Saint King, to comprehend.

"No!"

"You, how can you still exist!?"

At this moment, even the Crimson Saint King panicked instantly, his expression changing drastically.

He even frantically urged the crimson evil energy within his body, condensing it into a ten-thousand-foot-long sword aura in an attempt to resist.

But under the Crimson Sky Sword, the Crimson Saint King's sharpness was as if it were made of paper, instantly vanishing like a clay chicken or a clay dog!

In the blink of an eye, the sword light completely engulfed the Crimson Saint King.

However, to Gu Jiancheng's surprise, under Li Chengfeng's sword strike, an ancient bell artifact was also cleaved out of the void behind him.

The Holy Son of Dingtian, Cang Xingyu, was struck down from beneath the ancient bell. His face was filled with astonishment. Even the power of the Heavenly Ranking Golden Slip had become ineffective. In his terror, he was instantly annihilated.

The first holy son of the human race didn't escape either!?

Are they hiding in the shadows hoping to reap the benefits?

But clearly, he didn't expect Li Chengfeng to be so domineering.

However, Gu Jiancheng also discovered that the Cang Xingyu that was killed did not release any blood mist, and it seemed to be just a clone!

He entered the Ruins of Return with an avatar, and his combat power was no weaker than that of other top-tier prodigies and nobles.

The strength of Cang Xingyu is even greater than Gu Jiancheng had anticipated!

The ancient bell then soared into the sky on its own and vanished instantly into the abyss.

A moment later, Li Chengfeng and his sword light dissipated together, and the Crimson Sky Sword returned to Gu Jiancheng's hand.

But at this moment, the Crimson Sky Sword had become cold.

"Hey!"

Gu Jiancheng could only sigh.

Even if it was an obsession, Li Chengfeng was protecting Ah Feng, even for the last time.

How he wished that Li Chengfeng and Afeng were not still alive...

If there were even the slightest possibility, Gu Jiancheng would try to revive them.

Immediately, Gu Jiancheng arrived and put the ancient building into the Langhuan Space.

Although the ancient building is now useless, at least it still serves as a memento.

Then, Gu Jiancheng raised his hand and took the golden slip of the Heavenly Ranking left by Cang Xingyu into his hand.

Of all the Heavenly Ranking slips, he had only obtained this one, but unexpectedly, it was the most precious one.

The top of the Heavenly Ranking!

It's going to change hands again!

Immediately, Gu Jiancheng bent down and took a deep look at the seemingly endless bottomless abyss.

Beneath his divine gaze, he seemed to see through the abyss an endless sea, desolate and barren, yet infinitely mysterious.

However, he could not descend into this abyss.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Jiancheng rushed towards the top of the abyss, and a moment later, his figure appeared in the altar.

"You're back!"

"Great!"

Before the altar, the Holy Maiden Xuanji was first startled, then overjoyed.

Gu Jiancheng is the most successful junior that Lotus Pavilion has cultivated so far, and he also has a lot of Crimson Blood Crystals. If he were to perish in the Ruins of Return, she would have no way to explain it to the pavilion and Li Piaomiao.

"That ancient building itself has a killing formation, otherwise would I be so calm?"

Gu Jiancheng made up a sentence on the spot, and then raised his hand to take out all the scarlet blood crystals he had obtained and handed them to the Saintess Xuanji.

"After the Crimson Saint Lord fell, he also left behind a Purple Mansion Saint Pill, which I've given to you as well."

"I think I did a pretty good job on this mission?"

Gu Jiancheng asked with a smile.

"Absolutely perfect!"

The Holy Maiden Xuanji put away the blood crystal, and upon seeing the inner core of the Crimson Saint King, she could not hide her joy.

This will greatly help the research of the Supreme Holy Palace!

"You must have gained quite a bit in that ancient building, right?" Saintess Xuanji said with a mysterious smile.

"It's alright, nothing to mention!" Gu Jiancheng replied dismissively.

He gave everything he could, and there's no need to say what he received in return.

"Don't worry, the rewards from the building will be delivered soon!"

The Holy Maiden Xuanji didn't ask any further questions; she didn't seem to truly care what opportunities Gu Jiancheng had obtained.

Or rather, she didn't care.

"However, this time you have been completely exposed to the three holy lands. After you return, you will face the threat of the holy lands."

"The building will protect you, but it will take time. In the early stages, you'll have to hold on on your own."

"Alright, I need to go back upstairs to report. See you later!"

The Holy Maiden Xuanji smiled, and with a flash, disappeared from the ancient city.

At this moment, Jiang Hongyi, Yuan Da, and the others also walked out of the Langhuan Space.

They were still shaken; what had just happened was extremely dangerous.

Fortunately, in the end, they managed to escape danger.

"Sect Master, we have decided to return to the Taiji Sect with you!"

At this moment, Yuan Er'er suddenly spoke.

Inside the Langhuan Space, he and Yuan Da had already made their arrangements.

It's already very difficult for them to return to the Demon Realm, so they might as well stay with Gu Jiancheng.

Gu Jiancheng has already conquered them with his strength.

"We've also decided to return to the Taiji Sect with the Sect Master!" Feng Yunxiao and the others said in quick succession.

As descendants of notorious villains on the list of evildoers, they only managed to get into Guixu by sneaking in; if they were to return, they would still be unable to face the light of day.

If Gu Jiancheng is willing to take them in, it's better than them hiding outside.

"Alright, Tai Chi Sect welcomes you!" Gu Jiancheng smiled.

He naturally hoped that these people would return to the Taiji Sect with him.

After the Great Battle of Guixu, the Taiji Sect will soon face a catastrophe. He needs to make the Taiji Sect stronger in a short period of time!

"Second sister, I also want to go to the Tai Chi Sect for a visit. Can you go back and talk to eldest brother about it?" Jiang Hongyu looked at her sister with a flattering expression and said coquettishly.

"You wild girl, I knew you couldn't stay still!"

Jiang Hongyi glared at her, then said helplessly, "I'll talk to your brother for you."

"Hehe, I knew it! Second Sister is the best to me!" Jiang Hongyu was overjoyed and quickly retreated behind Gu Jiancheng.

"I'm leaving too. My older brother must be worried sick."

Jiang Hongyi glanced at Gu Jiancheng and said, "Take good care of Shuiyao, and also, be careful of Yu Xuanji, she's not simple..."

"Understood!" Gu Jiancheng smiled.

In contrast, he truly regarded Jiang Hongyi as a brother... no, a friend.

Jiang Hongyi nodded, then turned and soared into the sky, disappearing after a breath.

"It's time for me to go too!"

Gu Jiancheng raised his eyes and looked at the spatial vortex that was gradually emerging above his head.

The time for Guixu to close is approaching. All the teleportation arrays have been activated. Entering the vortex will return them to the entrance they came from.

Meanwhile, deep within the Dingtian Holy Land, in a blood pool, Cang Xingyu, who was in meditation, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale.

"No, this is impossible! My clone was actually destroyed!?"

At this moment, Cang Xingyu's face was filled with disbelief.

Not long after, Gu Jiancheng appeared in the central square of Manghuang City.

However, the appearance of Gu Jiancheng and his group caused all the cultivators in the Desolate City to be instantly astonished.

They knew Gu Jiancheng's identity.

Before entering the Ruins of Guixu, this newly established leader of the Taiji Sect offended the three holy lands and the Yuchi Mansion.

And now, they've actually managed to come out alive!?

Could it be that it's been hiding somewhere in Guixu all along, surviving until now?

However, Gu Jiancheng and the others were among the last to leave Guixu. The teleportation array beneath their feet shut down completely the next moment.

This means that no one can ever leave the Ruins again.

But this scene left the Yuchi family and all the cultivators from Ice Sword Valley dumbfounded.

Yuchi Rong and the young talents of their sect haven't come out yet!

"Yu Chi Lan, what happened? Where are your brother and husband?!"

At this moment, an elderly man, supported by others, walked into the crowd and questioned Yu Chi Lan.

"He, they..."

But Yu Chi Lan stammered, unsure of what to say.

"No need to ask!"

"They, along with disciples from Ice Sword Valley, Pure Yang Sect, and Hanging Temple, all died by my hand!"

At this moment, Gu Jiancheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at everyone with a cold laugh.

"And listen up, everyone! From this moment forward, my Taiji Sect will be the strongest sect in the Desolate Wilderness!"

"Anyone who disagrees?!"
