Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start
Chapter 987 - 73 East Profound Region

Gray Domain, capital of the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty.

"What did you say?!"

At this moment, Gu Yan's eyes were wide with disbelief as he looked at his subordinate, his expression as if he had seen a ghost.

"More than twenty from the Huanxu Realm made a move, and all of them died?!" His fists clenched unconsciously, his vision swimming.

"Yes, Your Highness..." His subordinate was also trembling, with lingering fear in his eyes. He had been terrified when he heard the news, too.

"Could it be that Jiuding is so extraordinary, that a mere Cave Heaven Realm could achieve this step?!" Gu Yan gritted his teeth, jealousy welling up from the deepest part of his heart.

Because, in his view, Jiuding should have been his, all the glory that was now happening to Gu Chen should also have belonged to him.

"He's just a country bumpkin from the lower realms, a mere barbarian, and yet he was able to stir such trouble in the Gray Domain. Damn it, it should have been mine!" Gu Yan roared, the darkness streaming in his eyes, his emotions nearly out of control.

"Your Highness, it was the Blood Orchid Clan, and that Blood Jade. If she hadn't intervened, our defensive forces in Jumu City would have been sufficient."

On hearing this, Gu Yan's head snapped up, his face ferocious, "Hasn't the teleportation array been altered? Why didn't he appear in the capital?"

"This..." The subordinate hesitated, for they did not even know the reason themselves.

"Blood Jade... Blood Jade, I should have killed you first back in the secret realm!" In a rage, Gu Yan shattered countless precious porcelain and treasures in the sleeping palace.

"Rest assured, Your Highness, our people are already pursuing along the space fluctuations, and besides, forced teleportation with the spatial fabric torn, he won't get far!"

"No matter what, capture him at all costs!" Gu Yan bellowed.

"Yes, Your Highness, do not worry!" His subordinate quickly left to carry out Gu Yan's orders.

Meanwhile, the news that Gu Chen had slain more than twenty from the Huanxu Realm and escaped via teleportation also spread rapidly throughout the Gray Domain, causing an enormous uproar.

This was an incredibly shocking piece of news that jolted the Gray Domain and even reached the neighboring regions.

Everyone who heard it felt an overwhelming disbelief. This was a fantastical military achievement that made everyone's head spin.

Although Gu Chen had left the Gray Domain, everything about him was still enthusiastically discussed by countless people there, and the buzz lingered for a long time.

...

On the other hand, after the teleportation began, the fabric of space tore, and Gu Chen forcibly used the Yuding to redirect the spatial teleport, not arriving at the capital of the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty as Gu Yan wished.

Amidst the blinding light and rupturing space, he fell into it, the chaotic spatial fluctuations cutting into his body like knives.

This was Gu Chen's second experience of teleportation failure and tumbling into the broken void.

Compared to the first time, this was still more dangerous.

In the pitch-black void, Gu Chen looked grave. He exerted all his strength to operate the Yuding and stabilize the space around him to prevent a total collapse that could cause chaotic spatial currents to drag him in.

The next moment, after forcibly locating a certain node through the Yuding, light and shadow shifted, and a severe sense of distortion washed over him as Gu Chen broke through the void, arriving at a certain place.

This was a dense jungle. With the world exploding around him, the bloodied figure of Gu Chen appeared and fell to the ground in an extremely pathetic state.

Teleportation across domains covered immense distances, and even a great master of the Unity Realm wouldn't survive if there were problems midway.

Even the Great Powers of the Heavenly Realm would be frantic in an event like Gu Chen's.

The worst outcome was being unable to locate appropriate coordinates and forever getting lost in the chaotic void, waiting for death in silence.

However, thanks to his prior experience and the most crucial Yuding, capable of mastering spatial manipulation, he wouldn't have had any chance of survival given his modest strength.

"Where is this?" Gu Chen was covered in blood, his body slashed by the rending void, the whole person a blood-soaked spectacle, looking very frightening.

It was also thanks to his strong physical body. Otherwise, even with Yuding, it would not have been so easy to get through safely, and his body might have been minced by the disordered void.

At this moment, he still had the presence of mind to survey his surroundings because what he suffered were only superficial skin wounds, which would heal before long.

Although terribly wretched, he had ultimately succeeded in leaving the Gray Domain.

If he hadn't used the Yuding to forcefully twist space, he would probably be in the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty's capital by now, captured by countless people and made a prisoner of Gu Yan.

"Could this be The Hong Domain?" Gu Chen observed his surroundings.

Logically speaking, The Hong Domain was the region closest to the Gray Domain, and through the teleportation array of Jumu City, one would be teleported to The Hong Domain.

However, this teleportation had, after all, gone through significant turmoil, and with Gu Chen's strength, he wasn't yet able to freely control the Yuding; his successful arrival was already a fortunate matter.

Therefore, even he didn't know where he had landed.

It could be The Hong Domain, or it could be another region.

"The likelihood of arriving in The Hong Domain... is quite low," Gu Chen muttered to himself.

Afterward, he pushed himself up despite his injuries. Although he had left the Gray Domain successfully, with the strength of the Heavenly Mysterious Imperial Dynasty, it was possible to trace his destination using the residual spatial fluctuations left behind.
