**Chapter 118: One of the Thirty-Six Methods of Ascension - Golden Core Method
Gu Wen raised his hand and thrust his sword through Jun Yan.
The aura of the Sword Dao True Understanding made the demonic energy instantly wilt, as if flames had met water, extinguishing in an instant.
As the condensed Immortal Sword withdrew, Jun Yan let out a low groan.
"Ah, thank you."
Then he lay on the ground, motionless, devoid of breath, even his pulse had vanished.
"Is he dead?" Gu Wen was startled and hurried forward to check.
Jun Yan's heartbeat and pulse had completely disappeared, even the aura of his soul seemed incredibly weak.
"Don't worry, this is another effect of the Heavenly Demon Method—false death. Even if Jun Yan's head were cut off, he could still come back to life, but if he grows a second head, he might not be himself anymore."
Xiao Yunyi, who had just reattached his arm, approached.
Regrowing a severed limb required special medicinal pills, but reattaching it right after severing could be accomplished with any healing technique.
Gu Wen asked, "Do we really not need to worry about him?"
Given the current situation, the most unpredictable element was Jun Yan.
Chi Yunzi's condition only caused him discomfort, Yujian Fo's condition would at most lead to self-isolation, but Jun Yan was someone who could truly stab them in the back.
