The Unparalleled Sword Emperor Chapter 2642 - 2617: Strong Ones of the East Continent

Long hidden within the Heavenly Destiny Pass alongside the Demon Sect's Tiangang Thirty-Six Stars, the Snake King and Tiger King awaited their sect's orders. The instant the white-haired woman commanded the city's breach, these two kings ignited a fierce rebellion inside the pass!

Originally at Great Perfection in the Wending Realm, the Snake King and Tiger King wielded horrifying power that left ordinary Wending Realm fighters utterly outmatched.

Furthermore, the Demon Sect's Tiangang Thirty-Six Stars brimmed with unmatched ferocity and might.

Instantly, Wending Realm experts inside the Heavenly Destiny Pass endured devastating losses in droves!

Beyond the city walls, the Lion King and Wolf King united their strength to dismantle the formation.

Four layers of the Nine Saints Barrier Formation had already crumbled. If this onslaught persisted, the array would soon falter completely, sealing the inevitable fall of the Heavenly Destiny Pass!

Gu Daozhi declared coldly, "Outer Sect Master, unleash your full fury—first eradicate every Demon Sect vermin within the Heavenly Destiny Pass for me!"

The Outer Sect Master gave a nod, turned around, and intoned gravely, "Everyone, it's time for us old bones to emerge and loosen up!"

Scarcely had the Outer Sect Master uttered those words when ripples tore through the void behind him and Gu Daozhi, unveiling one fearsome warrior after another.

"Hehe."

"It's indeed time to come out and stretch!"

"I'm afraid the warriors on this East Continent no longer remember us!"

"Let's go, let's meet the Butcher Mountain Ancestor and Old Snake!"

Over a dozen mighty figures strode forth from the void, marching directly into the Heavenly Destiny Pass!

"Humph, die!" The Butcher Mountain Ancestor swung his Demon Blade fiercely, determined to slay the Wending Realm warrior standing before him.

Terror gripped the Wending Realm warrior's face; against the Butcher Mountain Ancestor's strike, he lacked any power to fight back, resigned to his fate.

Yet in that instant, the anticipated impact failed to strike for what seemed an eternity.

When he cracked open his eyes and gazed upward, a gray-haired elder had materialized in his path, beaming a smile toward the Butcher Mountain Ancestor.

"Butcher Mountain Ancestor, long time no see!" the gray-haired elder remarked with a grin.

Squinting sharply, the Butcher Mountain Ancestor snarled coldly, "Gu Lianxing! It's you, old bastard!"

Gu Lianxing, the gray-haired elder, ranked as a supreme powerhouse from the East Continent Academy's Gu Family. His strength was immense, having attained Wending Realm Great Perfection centuries prior, and he had remained in seclusion ever since, pursuing a breakthrough into the Taoist Realm.

Were it not for the raging turmoil engulfing the East Continent, this Gu Family ancestor would never have stirred from his retreat!

Gu Lianxing chuckled heartily, "I haven't been out much in years, didn't expect to encounter an old friend as soon as I came out!"

"Butcher Mountain Ancestor, I remember you were once a disciple of the East Continent Academy, and even one of the Quasi Holy Sons of the Eastern Courtyard!"

"I didn't expect you to aim your Slaughter Knife at your future junior brothers and sisters today; truly the misfortune of our sect!"

Gu Lianxing spoke with a light laugh.

The Butcher Mountain Ancestor gave a faint smile and replied, "Gu Lianxing, nowadays on the East Continent, if any of the Wending Realm warriors haven't studied at the East Continent Academy?"

"It's an unchanging rule that strongmen from the East Continent come from the Academy!"

"But not every disciple of the East Continent Academy is thankful to it after leaving, and my experiences there are not for you to judge!"

"I hate that place, and if I ever break through to the Taoist Realm, I will certainly slice open the God-Demon Sea with one blow!"

A chilling expression marked the Butcher Mountain Ancestor's words.

Gu Lianxing shook his head faintly and declared, "Truly the misfortune of our sect; since I met you today, let me cleanse the portal for the East Continent Academy!"

"You're old, not knowing if you still have your past strength!" the Butcher Mountain Ancestor shot back coldly.

The Butcher Mountain Ancestor quietly hoisted his Demon Blade, fixing his gaze on Gu Lianxing.

Over on Du Lao's front, yet another elder approached. Draped in a flowing blue robe, this elder's weathered features radiated surprising vitality!

His eyes, in particular, gleamed profound like the boundless starry expanse.

"Cough, Lan Yuanshan!" Du Lao eyed the withered elder ahead and stated flatly.

Expressionless, the withered elder regarded Du Lao in silence, his features unmoving, eyes laced with faint contempt, offering no reply!

From his name alone, it’s evident that Lan Yuanshan originates from the Lan Clan at the East Continent Academy—a dominant powerhouse reaching Great Perfection in the Wending Realm from the Lan Clan!

Du Lao gave a dry chuckle when Lan Yuanshan disregarded him. With a shake of his snake-shaped cane, he unleashed it, turning it into a black serpent that lunged straight at Lan Yuanshan.

Lan Yuanshan fixed a icy stare on Du Lao, remaining perfectly still as the black snake hurtled toward him with jaws wide open.

A gleam sparked in Lan Yuanshan’s eyes, summoning a blue flame that froze the snake motionless in the air right before him.

Even so, the black snake kept up its savage pose.

"The bloodline legacy martial soul of the Lan Clan..."

Snake Lao declared coldly.

Lan Yuanshan stayed silent. As his martial soul ignited, he surged forward to assault Snake Lao.

Gu Lianxing clashed fiercely with the Butcher Mountain Ancestor.

The intense showdown between Lan Yuanshan and Snake Lao exploded into action!

At the same moment, inside the Heavenly Destiny Pass, additional Great Perfection Wending Realm powerhouses launched their assaults!

"A gang of reckless youngsters!"

Six elders materialized overhead, gazing down coldly upon the Demon Sect’s Tiangang Thirty-Six Stars!

The Demon Sect’s thirty Wending Realm experts stared upward in dread: "Lan Yuanqing of the Lan Family, Gutian Xuan of the Gu Family, Chen Xinghe of the Chen Family, Wu Kong of the Kong Family!"

"Elder Shi Ziliang of the Southern Yard, Elder Zhang Xifeng of the Eastern Courtyard!"

Seeing these six emerge, the faces of the Demon Sect’s thirty Wending Realm powerhouses drained of color instantly.

These six clearly ranked as the pinnacle authorities in the East Continent Academy, every one boasting Great Perfection cultivation in the Wending Realm!

Zhang Xifeng chuckled, "Then we’ll leave this place to you, and Brother Gu and I will go out to deal with the other two Great Perfection strongmen outside!"

The rest nodded assent, while Zhang Xifeng and Gutian Xuan whirled around and charged beyond the Nine Saints Barrier Formation.

The Lion King had relentlessly hammered with his golden fists, shattering against the Nine Saints Barrier Formation—right then, Zhang Xifeng and Gutian Xuan arrived at its front.

Gutian Xuan spoke coldly, "The War God Formula was originally the ultimate technique of the War God Sect a hundred thousand years ago, but after the War God Sect was destroyed, this divine skill was lost. How did you acquire it?"

The Lion King eyed Gutian Xuan and burst into laughter, "What? Just because your Gu Family’s Gujin Tower doesn’t have something, others are not allowed to have it?"

All warriors across the East Continent knew the Gu Family possessed a Gujin Tower, storing every cultivation technique and rare treasure from the East Continent and Barbaric Ancient Continent—fragments of nearly every item that had ever appeared in history!

Yet, the War God Formula stood out as the one thing the Gu Family lacked!
