Gu Nan was indeed heavily injured.
The strength of his physical body far surpassed those of the same level and was so powerful that he could forcibly destroy Unified Dao bigshots with just his physical body.
But even such a Gu Nan was not an invincible being who could never be hurt. Directly tanking three Unified Dao experts' attacks still caused great damage to his body.
Huo Kui's final spear attack right before his body crumpled was especially brutal, directly destroying most of Gu Nan's soul. If Gu Nan was a traditional Unified Dao cultivator, he wouldn't even be able to use any power of laws after this.
But unfortunately, Gu Nan dared to fight like this precisely because of his incredible regeneration ability and the confidence that he could fight or escape whenever he wanted.
"Third one," Gu Nan's cold gaze fell on Dream Immortal's face as he repeated this sentence.
Dream Immortal's heart tensed up slightly. The lessons learned from Song Fei and Huo Kui were right before her eyes. Even if Monk Fa Kong was standing protectively in front of her, she still couldn't afford to be careless.
The power of dreams turned slightly sluggish as she withdrew some from Gu Nan and enveloped herself protectively.
Dream Immortal's figure started to turn illusory, placing herself between dreams and reality to ensure that even if Gu Nan attacked instantly, he wouldn't be able to immediately destroy her.
Sure enough, Gu Nan's figure instantly disappeared at this moment.
Dream Immortal's body suddenly became completely illusory. Even if this state consumed a lot of power, it was still better than being destroyed by Gu Nan.
Monk Fa Kong also raised his hand abruptly, and the prayer beads from his wrist scattered in all directions, falling all around Dream Immortal.
He actually used a protective magic treasure directly on Dream Immortal, completely disregarding himself despite the risk that Gu Nan might also switch targets and attack him.
However… Gu Nan had vanished.
Dream Immortal's act of placing herself in the dream realm despite the enormous power consumption and the prayer bead magic treasure Monk Faking immediately activated… were all in vain.
"He ran away?" Dream Immortal waited for a long time to confirm that Gu Nan's aura was completely gone and couldn't help blurting out.
She originally thought Gu Nan was lurking nearby, but she finally realized what happened after the power of dreams and the Buddhist light simultaneously covered their surroundings and still couldn't detect any trace of Gu Nan.
However, Monk Fa Kong's expression changed slightly. "Not good!"
...
Gu Nan had always been capable of doing something as shameless as bullying juniors weaker than him, even when he was already a mighty Unified Dao powerhouse.
He could even casually slaughter Imperial Glory Heaven, so why would Three Buddha Heaven be an exception?
Monk Fa Kong realized this possibility and rushed back to his astral world as soon as possible. However, to his surprise, Gu Nan was not here.
Three Buddha Heaven was very peaceful, without any sign of foreign invasion.
Just as Monk Fa Kong returned, another scream came from Imperial Glory Heaven. Dream Immortal's waiting paid off as Gu Nan's attack finally arrived, but she would definitely not like this kind of attack.
In just a short while, Gu Nan had recovered over half of his injuries due to avoiding all attacks in that period.
Gu Nan, who was freed from the dream realm's influence, immediately appeared behind Dream Immortal and tore apart the power of dreams protecting her.
However, the dream realm's protection was still effective. Dream Immortal was not destroyed instantly like Song Fei and Huo Kui. Instead, she used the dream realm to counterattack, engulfing Gu Nan's body in an instant.
After close contact with the power of dreams, the law clung to Gu Nan's body like a nightmare. Every move he made would cause his body to be torn apart and suffer horrific wounds.
At the same time, the Evil God physique was rapidly regenerating and recovering, allowing Gu Nan to remain in a state where he was about to die but not completely dead or destroyed yet.
Dream Immortal was also a great power who experienced major battles and was the same type of person as Huo Kui at heart.
Faced with such a desperate situation, the thought of fleeing never even occurred to her. She hardened her resolve, and all the laws of the dream realm suddenly surged towards Gu Nan.
Dream Immortal knew all too well that Gu Nan's strength lay in his explosive power and unparalleled speed. If they want to catch him, they must wait for an opportunity to be created when Gu Nan makes the first attack.
Now was the best opportunity!
"Do it!" Following Dream Immortal's shout, Gu Nan only felt his consciousness sway slightly while he himself had completely fallen into a dream.
Endless Buddhist light engulfed Gu Nan again. Amplified by the power of dreams, its intensity was several times Monk Fa Kong's own power.
The radiance shone on Gu Nan, causing his body to rapidly melt. But his punch had already landed on Dream Immortal before his body could melt completely.
This Unified Dao bigshot who just returned from a long slumber was instantly blown apart by this punch. And because she overexerted herself to attack just now, the damage she suffered was even greater than that of Song Fei and Huo Kui.
People who were ruthless towards others were oftentimes even more ruthless towards themselves, and Dream Immortal was undoubtedly this kind of person.
Fa Kong appeared, continuously drawing out the power of his astral world without a care for the consequences. All the power in Three Buddha Heaven was mobilized, crushing down like a huge weight.
Although Gu Nan's body melted, everyone knew he wasn't truly dead. A Unified Dao existence couldn't be killed so easily.
A ball of shadows emitting black light was completely surrounded by a golden radiance. This was Gu Nan's law of shadows.
Shadows were everywhere and ever-present. Normally, they couldn't be trapped at all.
Only a true Buddhist powerhouse like Monk Fa Kong could create a domain with endless Buddhist light and extract all the laws in its range.
This was his method of suppressing evil demons, and he wanted to use this to seal Gu Nan away.
At this time, Song Fei and Huo Kui also appeared simultaneously. A ruler and a golden spear descended together, knocking that ball of shadows down again.
Although Gu Nan beat them till they didn't dare show their faces anymore, as soon as Gu Nan fell into a disadvantage, these two wouldn't mind coming out again to beat him while he was down.
It had to be said that no one who could reach Unified Dao lacked combat experience.
Gu Nan's greatest strength was his unparalleled physical body, but it also meant that Gu Nan would fall into an extremely weak state as long as this strength was neutralized.
At the cost of immense damage to herself, Dream Immortal resolutely teamed up with Fa Kong to temporarily destroy the Evil God physique, finally giving the four Unified Dao ambushers an opportunity.
Right now, Gu Nan's physical body hadn't recovered yet and he could only use laws, so he was no match against the combined efforts of the four Unified Dao powerhouses.
As long as they could seize this opportunity to seal him, they could achieve great success!
Of course Monk Fa Kong knew this, so he had no intention of being stingy at all. The prayer beads appeared in his hand again, but this time, he destroyed all the beads with a slight shock!
The beads crumbled into clumps of powder and trapped the shadows below, causing the entire Imperial Glory Heaven to glow with a golden brilliance.
...
"It'll be very hard for Gu Nan to weather this tribulation." In a corner of Imperial Glory Heaven, Zi Luo Elder sighed as he shook his head slightly.
Immortal Empress Taisheng was also by his side.
Although she really wanted to see Gu Nan suffer misfortune, the fact that a newly-ascended Unified Dao cultivator was ambushed and might even be in danger of being sealed still made her sympathize with the distress of a like-minded person.
