At the end of the Creation Cave Heaven, a light curtain separated the two realms, revealing another world where millions of laws surged like a waterfall cascading down, with various divine and fantastical scenes interchanging, overwhelming to behold.
Gu Chen arrived at the mountain peak, where he was pondering the recent heavenly punishment and feeling the after-fear when he was startled awake by a cold shout.
With a frown on his sword-like eyebrows, he looked ahead and saw figures shrouded on the summit, all of them at the complete stage of the Ascension Realm as well as titanic figures who had taken half a step towards ultimate strength. Jin Hong and four others stood together, looking down with a gaze that fell upon him.
"So it’s you, daring to boast even after suffering defeat under my hand?" Gu Chen said with utter disregard.
"Defeated under your hand?" As these words came out, the hearts of the Ascension Realm cultivators stirred, and all eyes turned to Jin Hong.
They had not expected that the two had already clashed.
Because of the matter with the Origin of the Myriad Realms, many people recognized Gu Chen. Now seeing him appear, their gazes were drawn to him as well.
Some looked on with curiosity, some with astonishment, and others with malice. Gu Chen keenly captured their emotions.
"Gu Chen, surrender your life!" There was nothing more to say. The enmity between him and the Golden Roc Clan was well known to everyone, and now that they had met, Jin Hong made his move decisively.
Boom!
A giant golden roc claw tore through the heavens, striking towards Gu Chen.
"Still haven’t had your fill of losses from before?" Gu Chen said calmly, completely indifferent.
His disdain immediately flushed Jin Hong’s face with anger.
"Young man, you are far too arrogant. Remember, there is always someone better, and heaven beyond the heavens. Being overly arrogant will only lead to your own destruction," said Chong Xiao from the Nine Heavens Hall, a semi-powerful being stepping forward. Nine layers of heavenly light flickered, transforming into a cloud-wrapped palace that pressed down on Gu Chen.
"Two semi-powerful beings have joined hands!" At this moment, the surrounding Ascension Realm titans and semi-powerful beings all looked towards Gu Chen with focused eyes, eager to see how he would respond.
In this instant, Gu Chen remained calm and composed, speaking, "I am the ’heaven’ you refer to."
This statement made many onlookers change their countenance.
Although they all knew his talent was formidable and his strength stood out, to declare such words openly and unabashedly in front of everyone certainly displeased quite a few.
Jin Hong and the others took the brunt of it, Chong Xiao let out a cold laugh: "What a boast, you’re not afraid of biting your tongue in the wind. You’re not even as old as the lowest of my descendants; I am elder to you. Today, I will teach you a lesson, so you understand respect and hierarchy!"
Bang!
The palace shimmering with Nine Heavens light pressed down, but Gu Chen’s figure vanished, easily dodging it, causing Chong Xiao’s expression to change.
At the same time, he spoke lightly, "To presume upon one’s seniority... Knowing how old you are and yet still in the same realm as me, if I were you, I’d rather take my esteem self and dash it against a wall after so many fruitless years of cultivation."
"You?!" Chong Xiao was at a loss for words, Gu Chen’s reply left him speechless, and his failed attack, which missed its target and lost its lock, did not allow him to discern the reason or the cause. freeweɓnøvel.com
"Die!"
At that moment, Jin Hong roared, and the sky-darkening roc claw descended. Gu Chen was fearless, ready to give him a taste of the defeat from half a year ago.
"Heh!" But when Jin Hong saw Gu Chen about to collide head-on, he laughed: "Boy, this is the price of your arrogance!"
"Nine Li Mysterious Fire!" Next to Jin Hong, Zhu Xu from the Fire Sect, with an indifferent look in his eyes, let out a low shout, summoning the powerful flames famous in the upper realms to assail Gu Chen.
Yet Gu Chen’s expression didn’t waver as his palm met Jin Hong’s roc claw and the Nine Li Mysterious Fire. The attack and flames, powerful enough to destroy heaven and earth, couldn’t touch him.
Gu Chen merely shook his hand, and the last wisp of flame extinguished.
Simultaneously, Jin Hong’s palm was destroyed, and he was sent stumbling backward several yards.
"This child’s strength has become even more terrifying!" Their expressions solemn, they observed Gu Chen.
The others were likewise astounded, their looks towards Gu Chen filled with shock.
"Brother Shen, Brother Zhan, let’s strike together and make a swift decision to suppress this youngster!" Jin Hong spoke, looking towards Shen Ziyan from the Ten Thousand Stars Palace and Zhan Shen from the Three-Eyed God Clan.
"Exactly my thoughts." The two men nodded slowly, standing shoulder to shoulder with Jin Hong, confronting Gu Chen.
"Five semi-powerful beings have joined forces?!" Seeing this scene, the other Ascension Realm titans and semi-powerful beings were shocked.
Soon, with the opening of the All-Law Pond, it was possible that the five of them would form an alliance and make it through, which would be trouble for them as well.
"You join forces? That’s typical of your shameless natures," Gu Chen commented.
"Insolent child, don’t rely on the advantage of your tongue!" Zhu Xu shouted. His hatred towards Gu Chen was most intense, and with a raise of his hand, he unleashed a Great Power that spread a sky-covering Nine Li Mysterious Fire.
Seeing this, Jin Hong, Chong Xiao, Zhan Shen, and Shen Ziyan did not hesitate and acted as well.
Rumble!
The combined strength of the five semi-powerful beings created an immense fluctuation, shaking both heaven and earth. The majesty of the Great Power was extraordinary, terrifying all the powerful beings around.
But to the attack that astounded everyone, Gu Chen appeared carefree, commenting, "All flash, no substance."
Jin Hong and the others wore cold expressions, silent, believing that with the five of them joining forces, Gu Chen was already a dead man!
Boom!
The earth quaked, the void collapsed, the golden roc silhouettes, the intense divine fire, the massive heavens, and a swirl of chaos energy.
