Chapter 59 Can an old man also unleash his power?
The old man's aura seemed to rise exponentially with anger, and a chilling, blood-red aura bombarded the surrounding tables and chairs, creating a series of explosive sounds.
"Hahaha, it's like the heavens are going to kill you."
"Today, I will make you pay for my son's death!!!"
The faint white light that was originally there has now completely disappeared.
What remains is a flawless crimson color.
If it weren't for the powerful background of Zuixianju, and the fact that they unleashed their full power, this building would probably have been reduced to ruins.
However, a few gusts of air were not contained and unintentionally passed through the wall, striking passersby. The bodies of these passersby exploded instantly, with blood and foam flying everywhere.
The man in white frowned slightly, then retreated several meters away and began to disperse the crowd.
The situation is now beyond his control, so he can only report it later.
Lin Tianyu has attained sainthood.
The aura of ordinary people is pure white.
The aura of a hegemon is a combination of white and red.
The higher one's life position, the closer one is to the true nature of color.
The crimson color is the symbol of progressing from a powerful body to a sacred body, giving rise to the aura of a saint.
Bai Qing'er leaned forward slightly, gazing at the standoff downstairs. Her face was slightly pale. The manic aura emanating from the old man was too terrifying. She tugged at Hongxiu's sleeve with worry.
"Will my brother... be alright?"
Her voice was as soft as a breeze, as if she were afraid of being noticed by the old man downstairs.
Hongxiu held Bai Qing'er's small hand and shook her head. As a contractor, she now had a greater sense of confidence in Gu Yun than Bai Qing'er did.
Even though the old man seemed to have reached a new level.
Gu Yun was also somewhat surprised.
Can an old thing suddenly become powerful?
It seems that the old man in front of me was previously stuck on mental limitations, which is why he had not been able to break through them. However, the extreme emotions brought about by the death of his son broke through this barrier.
It's truly mysterious.
Gu Yun had read the Crimson Flame Body Forging Technique, but since he didn't need it, he only had a general understanding of the basics. It seemed that improving one's life rank in the lower realm required the unity of essence, body, and soul, reaching a point of convergence before a breakthrough could be achieved.
Essence represents a person's will, which is a very subjective thing. There are many ways to cultivate spiritual power. You can improve your spiritual power through visualization, physical training, or by practicing various techniques to the extreme.
Although there are many methods for cultivating one's spirit, and the growth is not slow, breaking through one's spiritual power is a very mysterious stage.
Just like Pinduoduo's "cut-off" feature, it's like you're always just one cut away from the final one, and you can never finish cutting off the remaining amount.
Some people achieve a sudden enlightenment and reach the spiritual standard required to break through to the Overlord Body level at the first stage of the Mortal Body.
However, some people are stuck at the third level of the mortal body for many years and still haven't found that feeling.
Many people fail to break through from a mortal body to a superhuman body, or from a superhuman body to a saintly body, mostly due to mental limitations.
Because both the body and the soul can be achieved through accumulation.
The body represents the essence of a person's life. It relates to the degree of control over one's own power, which is the multiplier effect that can be achieved in actual combat, the body's recovery ability, nerve reaction speed, resistance to blows, and so on. However, all these physical trainings are just quantitative accumulations. To achieve a qualitative change, the help of the soul is indispensable.
The soul is the cultivation of the soul. It can nourish the qualitative change of the body and accelerate the quantitative change of the body. The higher the level of the soul, the stronger the effect. It can also use special mental techniques to generate soul power.
Qi is a power derived from the combination of essence and body. It is more like a standard to test whether a person's essence and body have reached a breakthrough.
"Looks like I can finally stretch my muscles."
"You really thought that breaking through to the Saint level meant victory was assured?"
"Old man, Saint level, you haven't even reached the starting point yet."
"You haven't even left the starting village yet."
Gu Yun placed one hand on the back of his neck, twisted his head left and right, and revealed a playful smile.
The crimson eyes were instantly activated, like a flame burning in the pupil.
Black lines quietly appeared on his limbs.
The surrounding air pressure seemed to rise by three degrees with every step Gu Yun took towards the old man.
Golden wisps of energy emanated from Gu Yun's body until they were fully exposed around him.
So noble.
So dazzling.
Unlike the old man's blood-red, saintly aura of frenzy.
The golden innate energy flowing around Gu Yun was as boundless, deep, and profound as the ocean.
The man in white suddenly realized.
He wondered why Gu Yun was so willful.
They are both Saint-level experts, but the fact that they can cultivate a technique that produces golden energy is rather rare.
And why does he look so young?
Could it be that she used some kind of secret method to preserve her youthful appearance?
He, like the old man, couldn't believe that such a young boy possessed such extraordinary talent.
Unless... he's not human.
Sensing the black-clad man's immense Saint-level aura, the old man's face instantly darkened, as if he had also realized something.
"You're also at the Saint level?"
"No, impossible, how could there be a Saint-level being your age?"
"You are...a demon?!"
After all, only demons and gods could possibly be in this situation, and if one really had to choose between the two, Gu Yun's blood-red eyes and black markings didn't look like a god at all.
Combined with the servant's report, the whole story gradually became clear, but the old man still found it hard to believe. If it really was a demon, why would it interfere so much with the affairs of the lower realm? Could there be someone in the village who made a deal with the demon?
Do demons even covet the souls of ordinary people?
It is common knowledge that making a deal with a demon requires a proportion of souls as collateral; the higher the level of the soul, the greater the gain.
Even those in the lower realms who know the truth are aware of this.
If Gu Yun even covets the souls of mortals.
Then there is only one possibility.
The man in black before them was a weakling among the demons, completely incapable of forming a contract for cultivation, or rather, cultivators would never consider the bargaining chips he could offer.
Great, the advantage is in my hands.
The old man chuckled coldly twice.
"You came here for the Fengyue Pavilion?"
Gu Yun stopped and raised an eyebrow.
It seems I'm just too lucky. I just finished dealing with the Sand Tiger Gang, and the person behind it is already rushing to get caught in the crossfire. It's not surprising that they're being linked to me.
That's good, it saves me the trouble of making the trip myself.
"He looks like an old codger, but his mind is surprisingly sharp."
"That's right, I am the devil."
After receiving confirmation, the old man had no more worries. Although demons are powerful, they are different from gods. Most demons are solitary and have no background in this world.
It's practically equivalent to having no worries about the future.
The old man's eyes were filled with murderous intent; he wished he could glare someone to death instantly.
When has Lin Tianyu ever suffered such humiliation?
He has always been the one threatening, mocking, and torturing others.
Now, his son has been killed and Gu Yun is provoking him again and again.
"Even if you are a demon, even if you can be resurrected, I will still make you die here. I will kill you every time I see you!"
"Because of a bunch of lowly people? Heh heh heh."
"You must be nothing more than an insignificant being to me. What a strange demon. I don't believe you would go to such lengths and make an enemy of the entire Lin family over the souls of some mortals?"
Is it because of them?
Before he finished speaking, the old man flashed away, instantly disappearing from everyone's sight and vanishing from the spot.
Then, like a ghost, it appeared in front of Bai Qing'er and Hongxiu, and the blood-red energy condensed into a giant claw, which rushed towards the two of them without mercy.
"Then let you taste the bitterness of loss too."
