Chapter 279: I know it better than you

Gu Nan indeed didnt foresee that Wu Gui would attack Yue Jiu. He didn't even know the other party was here, so how could he even guess that?

However, Gu Nan didnt actually need to doubt Wu Guis true allegianceshed met Ying Ge. This alone was enough to prove that she was opposed to Zuo Zuo.

"So Zuo Zuo was even able to incite Starry Ocean Pavilion to rebel" After seeing Shang Rong and Gu Nian over there, how could he still not understand what was happening?

Gu Nian died in Immortal Demon World but was now back from the dead. Who else besides Zuo Zuo could do such a thing?

Gu Nan's cold gaze swept over the two as his body began to glow with a faint golden light that gradually intensified. Yan Xiaoxiao had already sent over an alarm from Immortal Demon World.

Sure enough, Zuo Zuos goal is still Immortal Demon World?

"Be careful." Gu Nian's attention never left Gu Nan. She immediately alerted Shang Rong as soon as she saw this change.

"I'll fight him." Shang Rong nodded calmly. Of course he wouldnt go as far as to underestimate Gu Nan, but he also wasnt too afraid. After all, he was also one of Lord Zuo Zuos subordinates Wait a minute, what is this?!

Before Shang Rong could land on the ground, he saw a scene that left him stupefied.

The golden glow that slowly enveloped Gu Nan's entire body and suddenly shone brightly and then went out. Gu Nan's body enlarged to multiple times his original size, and his entire body glittered gold.

The current Gu Nan was over five meters tall. His originally slightly stocky figure suddenly turned into that of a muscle-bound man. His upper clothes burst apart completely, revealing his well-built chest.

But none of this was the reason for Shang Rong's shock. He was astonished at the terrifying might contained in the other partys casual gestures!

Gu Nan was slowly making his way forward, walking on the void. With every step, the space around him was crushed to pieces with a rumble, and a harsh golden light burst out.

The entire place was filled with such an endless golden light. The tens of thousands of Buddhas that were originally floating around them were completely crushed into the ground; most of them dissipated in the wind.

The aura Gu Nan gave off was too majestic. He was like a blazing sun. Just the energy waves he naturally gave off was enough to destroy the Buddhas.

Wu Gui stared at this situation with a dumbfounded gaze. In the end, she could only sigh speechlessly. The Palm-Sized Buddha Kingdom she painstakingly set up was shattered before it could actually be put to good use.

However, Yue Jiu, whose true body was forced out of hiding by Wu Gui, fell into deep despair at that moment.

The reason was very simplehe was Gu Nan's first target!

Gu Nan's footsteps seemed to be both slow and fast, arriving in front of Yue Jiu in the blink of an eye. His entirely golden arm slammed down hard on Yue Jiu's head.

Why? Why me?!

Yue Jiu simply couldn't understand. Shang Rong and Gu Nian are clearly here to kill Gu Nan, but all I did was lend a hand in passing, so how come his first target is me?

Just because I offended him before?!

The space around Yue Jiu shattered completely, making it impossible for him to escape by tearing through space. He, whod fallen into a desperate situation, finally displayed the mental fortitude fit for a Pavilion Lord of Starry Ocean Pavilion.

Since I cant escape, then Ill fight to the death! Even if it costs me my life

Yue Jiu resolved fiercely in his heart while throwing countless curse laws at Gu Nan. However, he originally thought he could at least hinder the other party's laws for a while, but his curses didn't take effect at all.

Gu Nan's palm fell and directly blasted Yue Jiu's head apart!

Gu Nan, who transformed into a deity, perfectly embodied the concept of killing Void Cutter cultivators as easily as butchering chickens. Yue Jiuthe mighty Pavilion Lord of Starry Ocean Pavilion and a top Void Cutter powerhouseended up just like the King of the Deep Sea.

As for the curses Yue Jiu threw out right before he died, they naturally all fell on Gu Nan without fail.

Weakening, aging, confusion, exhaustion If any of them hit normal Void Cutter cultivators, it would be enough to make them lose 90% of their combat power, yet Gu Nan tanked them all.

These laws didnt even make a splash when they landed on the body of a deity and were snuffed out without a trace.

Gods were merely living creatures whose rank as a lifeform was higher than that of mortals, while deities were veritable gods unaffected by the laws of the mortal realm. In a certain sense, this was the true "law nullification."

One could only neutralize "Deitys Descent" through pure physical attacks or by creating an environment that was extremely unsuitable for deities to fight in.

But neither of them was easy.

After killing Yue Jiu with a palm strike, Gu Nan once again cast his gaze on Gu Nian and Shang Rong.

Yan Xiaoxiao's plea for help was getting stronger and stronger. Of course he knew something was wrong with Immortal Demon World right now, but what he knew even more was that he must deal with these people first.

He couldnt maintain the Deitys Descent status for long. If he didnt kill as many enemies as much as possible during the duration of his ultimate move, then was he waiting to be slaughtered by the enemy after the ultimate move ended?

So Gu Nan didn't waste any time. His form turned into a golden streak of light and shot straight at Shang Rong.

Shang Rong looked at the golden figure rapidly flying at him. Wherever the figure went, space shattered. His scalp felt numb, and his head was about to explode.

If Zuo Zuo didnt have such a high prestige in his mind, he wouldve cursed a long time ago.

You want me to stop such an opponent from traveling through space?! I'd be thankful if I can even survive this!

However, Shang Rong ultimately wasnt Yue Jiu. The latters true body had been forced out of hiding by Wu Gui a long time ago, which made it impossible for Yue Jiu to dodge Gu Nans attacks. Although Shang Rong was also here in his true body, at least there he still had some hopes of turning the situation around.

Shang Rong couldnt spare any thought to maintain the unruffled demeanor of "one of the Five Steles" any longer. He threw out a blade of light in passing, then turned and ran away without a second thought.

But how could his speed compare with Deitys Descent?

A weight that felt like the sky was collapsing emerged behind Shang Rong. Shang Rong looked back in despair and saw that Gu Nans figure had already reached him.

The blade of light that could still cause considerable damage just moments ago couldnt even cut through the other partys skin right now.

Faced with this scene, a trace of understanding suddenly emerged from Shang Rong's hopeless heart, and a word popped updeity.

Just like a deity, the opponents ability was unparalleled. Any person or object that tried to stand in front of the deitys path would be crushed to pieces without hesitation.

Just as Shang Rong expected, Gu Nan's punch suddenly fell down, and the target was precisely Shang Rong's head.

However, the instant his fist touched Shang Rong, a voice that contained a certain magic sounded again.

"Life and death, death and life."

But the black and white space between life and death didn't fall on Gu Nan. Rather, Shang Rong was the one to experience it this time. His vision was both dark and bright, but he actually didn't die at Gu Nan's hands.

Did that punch seemingly disappear, or did I already die once and then come back to life?

Gu Nians strange voice that traveled into his ears just now made Shang Rong believe it was the latter. Before he could wake up from the joy of a narrow escape from death, he discovered that Gu Nan had disappeared again.

This time, Shang Rong knew what happened without even having to think.

"Not good! This was a diversion!" He turned to look at Gu Nians side, but it was too late.

On the other side, Gu Nian felt the power crushing down onto the top of her head. A trace of helplessness couldnt help appearing in her eyes.

"You even know about returning to life after death?"

"As I said, I know duality better than you do."
