Daoist Sect Realm was finished.

The observers who witnessed Gu Nan's grand army descending knew that Daoist Sect Realm most likely wouldn’t be able to put up much resistance any longer.

Even though Gu Nan's army suffered staggering losses after being ambushed by ten Star Rulers last time and its overall strength still hadn’t recovered, the enemy still couldn’t resist the completion of the player army.

The addition of two fresh troops—Xie Yun and Liang Ruxin—meant the Divine Kingdom wasn’t inferior to any Realm Level plane at all in terms of high-end combat power.

The remaining seven members of the player army were also growing rapidly, with An Tiansheng being the most prominent among them.

This teenager who’d taken the "Bandit" route had a growth curve not much worse than Xie Yun's, and because of the nature of his route, he would enjoy even more flexibility in the future.

Although Pay to Win Experts were indeed incredibly strong at the start, by the time they reached Tier 6 or 7, the amount of gold needed for leveling up would reach a despair-inducing level.

But the Bandit route had no such problems; at worst, he would just steal objects of a higher rank as he leveled up.

In any case, from the Star Rulers to the Void Cutter combat power to the ordinary armies below, Daoist Sect Realm was completely outclassed, with almost no hope of turning the tide.

And due to Gu Nan's earlier actions, none of the Star Rulers, including Fang Chaoyun, dared to come to Wu Tian’s aid anymore.

This was also the case with Daoist Monarch Wu Tian’s friends—whoever helped right now would be the next to suffer.

Gu Nan himself was like a bugged existence. He could casually run into other people's houses to cause trouble, but others didn't dare to throw their lives away by running over to his.

Of course, it wasn't like there were no headstrong people at all. There were always one or two righteous people in this world.

"Old friend Wu Tian, I've come to help you!"

With a loud shout, a burly man holding a double bladed axe appeared as he descended to Daoist Sect Realm.

Daoist Monarch Wu Tian was like someone who’d been in a long drought, so he was extremely touched to receive a helping hand at a time like this.

However, he also knew that this burly man with the double edged axe was, in essence, merely a weak Star Ruler who just obtained an astral world and could never be Gu Nan's match.

Instead of letting him run to his death here, it would be better for him to deal with Gu Nan's army. Having a Star Ruler intervene would undoubtedly buy Wu Tian a lot of time.

Thinking of this, Daoist Monarch Wu Tian hurriedly shouted, "Don't come here, hurry to—"

Bang!

Though he spoke up quickly, Gu Nan reacted even faster. He slammed his fist out without thinking, punching the burly man in the back of his head, and his body slowly collapsed.

"You evil wretch!" Daoist Monarch Wu Tian couldn't help letting out an enraged roar, but Gu Nan turned around and swung another punch at him, knocking down his temper.

Strictly speaking, Daoist Monarch Wu Tian shouldn’t be any weaker than a normal Tier 10 powerhouse when inside Daoist Sect Realm.

The astral world could only strengthen his laws. Even so, he was still unable to deal a fatal blow to Gu Nan, so the scene fell into a stalemate.

As long as the power of his astral world was used up, Daoist Monarch Wu Tian’s defeat would be imminent, and besides, Gu Nan's goal in this battle wasn’t to kill Wu Tian in the first place.

With no external Star Rulers intervening, Daoist Sect Realm's native cultivators were losing ground, and there was absolutely no one who could withstand Gu Nan's army.

Especially Xie Yun, Lan Si, and the others—all of them were the strongest people under Star Ruler Realm, and there was hardly a single enemy who could be their match.

The divine servant army massacred enemies at an extremely swift speed, and in just over a day's time, the entire Daoist Sect Realm had been wiped clean. Even now, Gu Nan and Wu Tian had still yet to decide victory or defeat.

In fact, there was absolutely no need to decide the winner and loser. If Wu Tian was unable to kill Gu Nan in the beginning, then he was already doomed to lose.

And right now, Daoist Monarch Wu Tian was indeed very spent. His attacks seemed mechanical, no longer containing the spirit he seemed to have a day ago.

Anyone who’d been stalled in battle by Gu Nan for a day and a night and had to watch their own astral world being destroyed in the meantime would probably end up like this.

This was the complete destruction of one’s mental state.

What was even more frightening was that Gu Nan didn't seem to have changed at all, as if the previous battle hadn't caused any wear and tear at all.

With ten thousand years of hard work destroyed in a day, Daoist Monarch Wu Tian slipped up and was finally punched squarely in the stomach by Gu Nan, and his entire body immediately flew out.

Of course Gu Nan wouldn’t be polite to him. Since his opponent wasn’t in a good condition, Gu Nan naturally had to give him a thorough thrashing.

However, at this time, a flash of teal light hovered in front of Gu Nan, slowly transforming into human form.

This person was a young man with delicate features and a black Daoist robe, quite similar to the original Daoist Heir Qin Ning.

"Disciple Fang Keming under Void Grotto Heaven’s Radiant Jade Cave Sect Leader greets Senior Gu Nan."

The youth who called himself Fang Keming made his attitude very humble, addressing Gu Nan as “senior” as soon as he appeared.

Contrary to expectations, Gu Nan stopped his attacks in time. The youth in front of him was only around Tier 5, but the person he represented had to be given face.

Void Grotto Heaven’s Daoist Heir Fang Keming, the closed door disciple[1] of Daoist Venerable Yu Lian. He cultivated for less than a hundred years, yet he’d already stepped into Star Ruler Realm.

He far surpassed Qin Ning in terms of both talent and status.

Strictly speaking, it really wasn't a problem for him to call Gu Nan his senior—this was a rare occasion where Gu Nan ran into a cultivator younger than himself.

"Yu Lian sent you?" Gu Nan didn't have much intention of chatting with his junior and asked directly.

Fang Keming bowed and saluted. "The Sect Leader said that Daoist Sect Realm is of the same origin as my Void Grotto Heaven, so she asks Senior to please be merciful."

"Sure," Gu Nan seemed to be particularly amenable this time and agreed without any hesitation at all. "I’ll return Wu Tian to you, and my people will withdraw today."

Daoist Sect Realm had gone through a round of massacre, and all the points that could be harvested had pretty much been collected, so it wasn't like there was any benefit to killing Wu Tian.

Fang Keming hurriedly revealed a look of gratitude, shielding Daoist Monarch Wu Tian behind him as he once again saluted and thanked him.

As Daoist Monarch Wu Tian followed behind Fang Keming, he was barely able to recover some of his spirit. At the very least, he was a grand Star Ruler who had weathered great storms.

Although the forces of Daoist Sect Realm had been thoroughly purged, their foundation hadn't been destroyed—Gu Nan hadn't laid his hands on the origin.

Because of this, Daoist Monarch Wu Tian believed that the other party might have done this just to vent some anger and didn’t necessarily want to kill him… It’s just that this venting was a bit extreme.

Wu Tian took a deep breath and took one last look at his tattered Daoist Sect Realm, then helplessly followed Fang Keming to Void Grotto Heaven.

"He's going to rejoin Void Grotto Heaven, congratulations!" Gu Nan revealed a smile and chuckled lightly.

If Daoist Sect Realm wanted to rebuild, it would never happen overnight, and Wu Tian's willingness to follow Fang Keming back represented an attitude in and of itself.

After holding on so stubbornly for so many years, this loser from back then was finally going to bow down to Void Grotto Heaven.

Red Tail was the chief commander of the Divine Kingdom War and finally reached Gu Nan's side at this time. "Then it’ll be hard for us to invade this place again… My Lord, who are we going to fight next?"

Gu Nan glanced at her and laughed involuntarily. "How did you become so belligerent as well?"

Without waiting for Red Tail to respond, he shook his head again. "We’re going to do something big next time."
