Chapter 265: Chapter 179: Those Who Lose to Me Are Crownless!_3

He could only turn his head to seek help from Ao Heng and others, but Gu Wen’s allies were not pushovers.

At this moment, in Baidi Xun’s eyes, the entire Grotto Heaven had unknowingly turned into a boiling cauldron, with everything around him becoming sluggish.

Surrounding him and Gu Wen, Ao Heng was entangled by a Daoist nun commanding thunder, Tushan Yun was tightly gripped by Jun Yan, the Vine Demon was crushed to the ground by the Jade Sword Buddha, and Ba Snake Demon Saint had already been banished from the Grotto Heaven by Xiao Yunyi.

Only those members of the Devil Clan whom he had always looked down upon had free hands, but did they dare to advance now?

Clang!

The Immortal Sword emerged once again, its cold light reflecting the heavens and the earth.

"After thirty thousand years of dormant strength, tell me, who speaks of being invincible, who speaks of being undefeated?"

Gu Wen gently lifted Baidi Xun’s chin with his sword, staring into the reflection of fear in his pupils.

Killing an enemy is easy, but subduing one is as difficult as reaching the heavens.

Does Baidi Xun have any pride?

Naturally, he has it. He crossed thirty thousand years to seek Immortality, and he was not killed despite being struck by the Immortal Sword so many times. Such already constitutes a heaven’s pride.

But he is worthless in Gu Wen’s eyes; he overcame Baidi Xun with a core of the First Level sixty-five, compared to Baidi Xun’s core of the First Level seventy-six. For a heaven’s pride, even a single level’s difference means the world, and two levels almost guarantee no chance of defeat.

But Baidi Xun still lost, utterly and completely.

Gu Wen was questioning his Dao heart, whether it was he who was invincible, or the other who was incapable.

"You."

Baidi Xun’s voice sounded as if it couldn’t bear the weight of a hanging boulder, but it finally slipped out,

At this moment, his so-called invincible heart was crushed to the ground, with no more possibility of becoming an Immortal.

His tiger-like eyes couldn’t help turning red; he had abandoned everything to come to this great era of Immortality, intending to prove himself unbeatable, but in the end, he was so weak.

Gu Wen suddenly asked, "Have you ever eaten human flesh?"

"Are you pitying me?" Baidi Xun’s face showed annoyance, to which Gu Wen paid no heed and asked again, "Have you ever eaten human flesh?"

Seeing the Immortal Sword once again pressed against his forehead, Baidi Xun seemed to have some restraints unlocked, and after a long pause, he admitted, "The impurities in Meat Spirit Medicine are mottled, and it’s not possible to always seek out great power Cultivators to consume. Those with the will to become Immortal need not consume food, only a small amount of Pill."

It wasn’t resistance, for the Blood Food consumed by the Devil Clan includes all species; it’s just that the humans are numerous and stable.

Much like the humans’ nobility who eats fine rice and good flour, among the Devil Clan, there are those who only consume high-grade Spiritual Medicine.

It has nothing to do with good or evil.

"I won’t kill you."

Gu Wen sheathed his sword, as Baidi Xun had anticipated, his complexion turning unsightly, he said, "My Dao heart is already destroyed, better to give me a quick death, otherwise, are you not afraid I will seek revenge later?"

"Already destroyed?"

Gu Wen countered, "Would you feel ashamed to be defeated by a Demi Immortal? Would you feel your Dao heart has shattered?"

Baidi Xun shook his head, and Gu Wen’s voice began to resonate throughout the Grotto Heaven.

"That’s right, you wouldn’t feel ashamed, as it seems natural to be defeated by a Demi Immortal. So why can’t this person be me?"

Gu Wen slowly spread his arms, his lips curving slightly, bearing a hint of mockery.

"I do not kill you not out of pity, but simply because there is no reason for me to necessitate your death, and I happen to want to verify something."

"Those who defeat me have no words, those who defeat me have no hesitation, those who defeat me have no crowns."

Everyone was stunned to silence, as if an immense authority was pressing down upon them.

At that moment, Tushan Yun, who had just broken free of the entanglement, took a step forward, but in the next instant withdrew inexplicably.

Authority, a boundless authority came crushing down.

One part arrogance, three parts madness, a full measure constitutes an invincible heart.

Those defeated by me are devoid of a crown.

What sort of confidence is this? To others, it might seem delusional, but Gu Wen, at this moment, was standing over Baidi Xun, an entity whose reputation had been boasted about by the White Tiger clan for tens of thousands of years.

It seemed that compared to words, his actions were even bolder.
