Soon, as time passed, the sacred decree to execute and the showdown at Qi Yun Mountain gradually fermented, and the storm surrounding this matter grew increasingly intense.

Now, everyone in Da Xia knew that a massive storm was imminent!

At this moment, Gu Chen had already arrived at Qi Yun Mountain, and during this period, many forces had gathered there as well.

Upon learning this news, even though it was widely believed that Gu Chen would be defeated, no one wanted to miss witnessing such a momentous event.

Hence, after Gu Chen's arrival at Qi Yun Mountain, many martial artists hurried there, even some from Da Xia, wanting to witness this spectacle.

At this moment, atop Qi Yun Mountain, Gu Chen stood tall in his black garments, with hair as dark as ink, proudly standing there.

At noon, the sunlight shone upon him, Gu Chen was adorned with specks of gold, standing as if he were amidst holy light, even his hair strands gleaming, looking supremely sacred.

Just then, a breeze came by, billowing Gu Chen's clothing, his heroic figure akin to a deity waiting for his adversary's arrival.

Today, Gu Chen's influence had firmly established itself—his mere presence emanated a powerful aura that chilled people to the bone.

In the crowd, people of all sorts had come from different states, rushing over upon receiving the news.

Among them were some who hailed from Tianzhou; it was their first time seeing Gu Chen.

"So this is the renowned Marquis of Wu'an, Gu Chen, who has been the talk of the realm recently? He doesn't seem all that impressive, far inferior to Elder Brother Zhong Jun," a young woman from Tianzhou said disdainfully, curling her lip.

"What sort of person is Elder Brother Zhong Jun, that he could be compared to some barbaric native of Da Xia?" the young woman's companion said similarly.

Hearing this, the first young woman nodded and replied, "That's true. I've heard that even in the higher realm, Elder Brother Zhong Jun is quite extraordinary, viewed as a talent by the sacred domain, with a promising future to reach Celestial Realm. He's incomparable to this so-called Marquis."

The companion of the young woman scoffed, "What Marquis of Wu'an? He's nothing but a figurehead of a human dynasty that could be annihilated with a flip of the sacred domain's hand. It's lucky for this man named Gu Chen that he's willing to take responsibility alone for his actions; otherwise, this imperial dynasty named Da Xia would have suffered along with him. A single fury from the sacred domain and bloodshed in the millions isn't just mere talk."

In the history of Da Xia, indeed there were dynasties that had provoked the sacred domain and had been annihilated, with countless commoners losing their lives.

When the sacred domain takes action, they do not concern themselves with the details.

Some martial artists around the two young women frowned upon hearing their discussion, wondering where they came from and how they dared to belittle the world-renowned Marquis of Wu'an, Gu Chen?

However, the next second, when they turned their gaze towards them, their expressions suddenly changed.

The two young women, and a few people beside them, were all disciples of the six sacred domains!

Not to mention others, these two young women already possessed master-level cultivation; considered quite impressive at their age in Da Xia.

Thus, after learning of the young women's origins, the rest of the martial artists refrained from speaking further, letting them say what they wanted.

At this point, a male martial artist from the Vault of Sky Sword Sect, who was with the young women, spoke up, "What does it mean to deal with consequences alone? Who knows if Gu Chen has been abandoned by Da Xia? You should be aware that in the higher realm, even their emperor would have to bow down and prostrate before Elder Brother Zhong Jun. It is only these barbaric natives of Da Xia who are ignorant enough to dare offend the sacred domain, simply courting death."

These people had been fortunate enough to see Zhong Jun after his arrival; in the future, barring any accidents, they would also follow the sacred domain to the higher realm. Thus, they were doing everything possible to establish a good relationship with Zhong Jun.

"This Gu Chen provoking the sacred domain is simply out of ignorance. He does not realize that this kind of behavior is nothing more than digging his own grave. A showdown at Qi Yun Mountain? Hah, it's merely clownish behavior. Under the heavens, once the sacred domain makes a move, who can stand against it?" said the Vault of Sky Sword Sect male martial artist with an air of arrogance, as if he were a rare talent who had descended from the higher realm to Da Xia, full of a sense of superiority.

The two young women nodded in agreement, deeply concurring, and at the same time, their gazes towards Gu Chen grew ever more disdainful.

In their eyes, Zhong Jun was the dragon of the heavens, while Gu Chen was but an insect on the ground; how dare a mere ant make noise at a mighty dragon?

At this moment, the surrounding onlookers had heard the comments of these few people, and seeing their undisguised contempt for Da Xia, many felt displeased. However, due to the young women and their companions' status, they remained silent.

Because in the eyes of others, Gu Chen would not likely be a match for the six sacred domains, and this battle seemed destined to see Gu Chen defeated thoroughly, bringing an end to his rise to prominence.

Some thought Gu Chen was unwise; why provoke the six sacred domains? It would have been better to retreat when necessary.

Gu Chen stood on the peak of Qi Yun Mountain, watching the number of onlookers increase and gradually seeming to encircle him, which made his eyebrows furrow.

Swish!

At that moment, Gu Chen brought his fingers together like a sword and made a light slash through the air. Suddenly, a circle appeared on the ground at the mountain's peak.

For a moment, those who saw this were somewhat puzzled, not understanding what Gu Chen was doing.
