Chapter 240

The gigantic phoenix spread its wings and flew high into the sky. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the void. When it appeared again in the next moment, it had already broken through the illusory array!

Boom boom boom.

It was like a real fire phoenix, incinerating everything in its path, not leaving a single blade of grass behind!

Caught off guard, a large number of Nether God Palace's Nether Soldiers were burned to death by the flames, and for a time, they wailed like ghosts and howled like wolves.

As for the White Phoenix Arrow, it gradually reverted to its original form at a speed that was approaching its limit. It crashed into the mountain ridge!

Rumble!

This arrow caused the entire mountain ridge to collapse!

Rocks flew everywhere, the earth quaked, and the mountains swayed. It was as if the end of the world had arrived in the hall. More than two hundred assassins, some were angry, some were frightened, and all of them were in chaos.

"Kill!"

At this moment, Gu Chen's words were like thunder in spring.

"Kill!"

The response was five hundred assassins from the Celestial Court. Their murderous aura soared to the heavens as they descended at the entrance of the hall. They quickly carried out an inhumane massacre!

Gu Chen did not attack again. The White Phoenix Infiltrating Void Arrow flickered a few times in the air and returned to his hand.

He stood with his hands clasped behind his back, estimating the time. In the eyes of the Nether God Palace assassins who were being slaughtered below, he was like the Demon Lord of the Ninth Heaven.

After a short while, the sounds in the shattered mountain gradually weakened, and more than two hundred corpses of the Nether God Palace assassins were left on the ground.

On the other hand, the Celestial Court's battle strength was almost zero!

"Next!"

Gu Chen coldly said. The 055 assassins had already killed to the point that they soared into the sky and excitedly followed behind Quasi Daozi.

"It's said that this stronghold is indestructible, and its perimeter is densely covered with defensive formations. As long as the Nether God Palace's assassins hide inside, they can last for a day and a night."

When they approached the second hall, a Silver Assassin reminded them worriedly.

Not to mention the eleven halls, just this second hall alone was a bone that was extremely difficult to chew.

"White Ape."

Gu Chen didn't respond. Instead, he called out casually as he flew above the hall.

The white ape leaped out, and under the watchful eyes of the crowd, it transformed into a six-hundred-feet-tall giant ape, and roared at the sky!

Boom!

Its two feet landed heavily on the ground, and for a moment, a violent gale blew within dozens of miles, and all the plants and trees were snapped!

Bang, bang. Bang, bang.

It strode toward the entrance of the Dark God Palace, every step it took causing a terrifying earthquake.

It roared, and its two huge arms smashed down casually. The defensive formations were broken one after another, as if they were made of paper!

It was like an invincible war beast, crushing this hall in an unprecedented manner. The so-called indestructible stronghold became a joke in front of it!

"With this spirit beast, we are invincible!"

Many of the assassins of the Celestial Court gasped when they saw this scene. Then, a fanatical glow appeared in their eyes.

For the first time tonight, they felt that Gu Chen's goal could be achieved!

"Kill!"

"Charge!"

Everyone's morale was boosted as they followed White Ape's footsteps and rushed into the hall.

It was another bloody massacre. When the enemies saw the six thousand feet tall Devil Ape, they were scared witless and fled in all directions.

However, the assassins of the Celestial Court turned into an inescapable net, killing everywhere they went, not letting a single one of them go!

Blood and fire bloomed in the dark night. This hall was quickly uprooted, but Gu Chen still did not attack!

"There are a thousand people in this hall, double our number."

"Don't worry, we have Brother Ape!"

When they reached the third hall, the assassins of the Celestial Court were fearless against the large number of enemies.

"This time, White Ape will not attack."

Gu Chen said coldly. White Ape's ability to gigantify had a limit. Only by arranging for a reasonable rest could he last longer tonight.

"Then I'm afraid we'll have to spend a lot of time here."

The group of assassins all felt a great deal of pressure.

"There's no need."

Gu Chen strode forward. With a flip of his hand, a ferocious black saber appeared in his hand.

The Whale Slaying Saber was made of Kun Metal, forged in ancient First Essence Heavy Water, and weighed ten million pounds.

It was said that in ancient times, it was a fierce saber used to deal with the giant white whale.

Gu Chen held the Whale Slaying Saber. Even with his godly strength, he found it strenuous.

He took a deep breath, gripped the Whale Slaying Saber, and fiercely slashed down at the stronghold below!

Boom —

Black energy surged like a raging sea, and with a single slash, the entire stronghold was reduced to ruins!

Miserable screams rang out from the hall below. A huge ravine appeared in the ground, and smoke and dust rose like a dragon.

All the assassins of the Celestial Court were stunned. When they looked at Gu Chen again, their eyes were filled with awe.

This newly promoted Daoist not only had a terrifying demonic ape as his companion, but his own strength was also ridiculously strong!

The assassins of the Celestial Court once again began their massacre. The strength of Gu Chen and White Ape made them unprecedentedly confident.

Their intuition told them that tonight's battle would be an achievement they could boast about for the rest of their lives!

Following that, Gu Chen and White Ape took turns on the battlefield. The assassins of the Celestial Court were like a hurricane, sweeping through the Nether God Palace like a hot knife through butter.

They were racing against time, their white robes turning into blood-red robes. They were like emissaries sent from hell, harvesting the lives of the Nether God Palace's assassins one by one.

There were only four hours left until daybreak, and they had miraculously taken down eight of the Nether God Palace's halls in Qingzhou. Not a single person was spared!

However, after a series of high-intensity battles, many of the assassins of the Celestial Court were exhausted. They no longer had the strength to rush to the next hall.

As for the remaining three halls, the guards weren't weak at all!

"Sir, we've already exhausted all our strength. Why don't we end things here tonight?"

"We've already destroyed eight halls. This is already a miracle. It's enough to report to the Celestial Court. If news of this spreads to the underworld, Sir's reputation will surely soar."

A few of the silver assassins cautiously suggested that they really did not have the strength to continue fighting.

Gu Chen's white robe was the cleanest among them. He had been controlling the pace of tonight's battle, reasonably allowing himself and White Ape to get enough rest. Therefore, they had retained most of their combat strength.

His gaze swept across the crowd and fell on the brave and skillful silver assassin Pang Yong, who was always charging and breaking through enemy lines by his side.

"You're really done for?"

"I don't have any strength left."

Pang Yong collapsed on the ground and smiled bitterly.

Not only were they exhausted of their physical strength and Origin Energy, but their minds were also extremely tired.

Under such circumstances, if they continued to attack the remaining three halls, it was simply suicide.

"I understand. You guys can go back first."

Gu Chen nodded and did not make things difficult for them.

"What about you, Sir?"

The crowd looked at each other. Listening to Gu Chen's tone, there was something wrong.

"Before daybreak, I want the Nether God Palace's forces in Qingzhou to be uprooted. I mean it!"

Gu Chen's eyes were cold.

"But Sir, we're already out of strength."

The crowd did not understand what he meant, and they all smiled bitterly.

"I don't need you guys. I alone am enough!"
