Demon Slaying, Gaining 60 Years of Cultivation From the Start-Chapter 664 - 482: King Huai is shocked, whole world is shaken_1

Not only Da Xia and the martial fraternity knew, even Da Yuan Country, which had closed its borders, was aware of this message.

The Emperor of Da Yuan, Toumuer, in a state of utter shock, hurriedly sought out his reclusive national teacher, Shiba Shitu, to report the rumors about Gu Chen that were circulating throughout the land.

This time, even the haughty Shiba Shitu could not help but fall silent.

Such a talented martial artist had never been seen nor heard of by Shiba Shitu, not even he, the number one martial artist of Da Yuan Country and soon to be in the Divine Intent Realm, could avoid a deep sense of dread at his core.

"The talent of this young man is truly unparalleled in all history, even that Emperor of Da Xia cannot compare," thought Shiba Shitu.

"National Teacher, what should I do, what should Da Yuan do?" panicked Toumuer. Gu Chen's martial prowess was improving far too rapidly, and he truly did not know what to do anymore.

Originally, with the news that Shiba Shitu was about to break through and achieve the Divine Intent Realm, Toumuer was very confident, feeling that he would soon have the whole world at his feet.

But now, having heard that Gu Chen had broken through to the Coagulation Field and defeated the barbarian chieftain Yelanbar, he dared not think so anymore.

At such a rate of cultivation, when Shiba Shitu emerged from seclusion, it was possible that Gu Chen would have already broken through to the Divine Intent Realm.

In that case, once they were at the same realm, would his much esteemed national teacher of Da Yuan Country still be a match for Gu Chen?

Clearly, even the deeply confident Toumuer had to admit at the depth of his heart that the answer was no.

At that moment, the robust voice of Shiba Shitu came from beyond the stone door, "Your Majesty need not be so panicked. Before long I will be able to consolidate my Divine Intent, and the first thing I will do once I emerge is to kill this youngster!"

Clearly, even Shiba Shitu recognized Gu Chen as a threat, prioritizing him as the first target post-seclusion.

Otherwise, given more time, even Shiba Shitu couldn't be certain of how long it would take for Gu Chen to surpass him.

"Really? National Teacher, you're about to emerge from your seclusion?!" Hearing this, the panicked Toumuer immediately overflowed with joy, once again finding peace of mind.

"Just that..." At this moment, Toumuer hesitated, saying, "National Teacher, how much longer do you need?"

He was truly afraid. A little longer and Gu Chen might also break through, wouldn't that be awkward?

From the other side of the stone door, after a moment of contemplation, Shiba Shitu's voice carried out, "At most a matter of months, Your Majesty. Rest assured, no matter how talented Gu Chen is, it is absolutely impossible for him to progress from the early stage of the Coagulation Field to the Divine Intent Realm in just a few months!"

Shiba Shitu spoke with resolute certainty, for no one was clearer than him about the difficulty of breaking through the current earthly shackles and reaching the Divine Intent Realm.

It had taken him over twenty years to barely succeed in seclusion; Shiba Shitu did not believe Gu Chen could do it in just a few months.

"Good!" Toumuer was overjoyed as well. He did not think Gu Chen could break through another major realm in just a few months' time.

"Then I, Your Emperor, shall await the good news from you, National Teacher!"

At the same time, the Emperor of Da Yuan Country also secretly hoped that Gu Chen would be killed by the high priest Saranguis while confronting the barbarians.

Only if Gu Chen died could Toumuer truly be at ease.

...

Inside Tiandu, Prince Huai's Mansion.

At this moment, in the study, upon learning that Gu Chen had broken through to the Coagulation Field and defeated the barbarian chieftain Yelanbar, Prince Huai could no longer remain seated, and abruptly stood up from his seat.

"He's reached the Coagulation Field so quickly?!" The pupils of this number one prince of Da Xia constricted. Clearly, because of Gu Chen, he could no longer maintain his usual composure.

Below, a spy knelt without daring to raise his head and reported, "Your Highness, it seems that it was the siege by the four great kings of the demonic cult that pressured Gu Chen into breaking through and killing them all."

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Huai's expression turned even uglier; did his notification to the four demonic kings to besiege Gu Chen not only fail to trouble the latter but instead help him?

At this thought, Prince Huai almost clenched his teeth in rage and might have completely lost his composure if not for the presence of the spy.

Subsequently, Prince Huai forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, quickly mulling over his next moves.

Originally, he did not believe that Gu Chen could break through to the Coagulation Field so quickly, but this time, he had miscalculated.

In order to deal with Gu Chen, Prince Huai had prepared numerous traps, waiting for Gu Chen to step into them one by one, but all these plans were premised on the advantage of Prince Huai's own strength, which could crush Gu Chen.

But now, with Gu Chen's breakthrough to the Coagulation Field, Prince Huai's advantage was going to be wiped out.

Especially after learning that Gu Chen had defeated Yelanbar, Prince Huai's belief only deepened.

Although he was much stronger than Yelanbar, with Gu Chen's rate of improvement, who could assure that he was not going to be the next Yelanbar?

Now, looking across the whole world, even the six great holy lands included, who among those at the same realm could say with certainty that they could defeat Gu Chen?

Facing Gu Chen, martial artists at the same realm would unconsciously feel a sense of dread, a testament to the strength Gu Chen had fought for and earned himself!

It was the same for everyone, including Prince Huai. Facing Gu Chen who had broken through to the Coagulation Field, he too felt somewhat uneasy now and was no longer as composed as before.
