Chapter 504: Chapter 372: Returning to the Dam_2

Not just the Ten Crown King, Six Crown King Ning Chuan, the Celestials’ Three-stone Sky Monarch, Stone Toughness, Qin Hao, and even the Lone Orphan Sword from Flame Cloud Cave all wore the same expression.

Only Shi Hao’s face seemed much more composed.

He had a very good relationship with Gu Chen, having fought together multiple times. He knew well of Gu Chen’s strength, even though he himself had reincarnated multiple times, he still did not dare boast that he could defeat him with one hundred percent certainty.

“Who dares to challenge me, come forth now!”

Gu Chen’s voice echoed out loud, showing no intention of resting.

Under the blessing of the Holy Light, he seemed like a perpetual motion machine, ready to fight on without end.

“Don’t be too arrogant. Despite your strength, you are not invincible. A man should always remember to be humble!”

A number of ancient creatures from various Taoist orthodoxies stepped forward and spoke angrily against Gu Chen. They were all powerful and terrifying, having rushed over from all directions.

They weren’t trying to save face for the Banished Immortal. After all, he had once slain many with the Broken Heart Song in the abyss, using their blood as a catalyst for his evolution.

No, they simply couldn’t stand Gu Chen.

How dare this nobody stand on the stage? It’s an insult to their ancient lineage!!!

The orthodoxies that these ancient creatures belonged to had connections with one another. They weren’t enemies. Now they gathered together, deciding to employ a battle of attrition to retaliate against this group.

Most importantly, they understood that if they didn’t act, the highest opportunity in these ruins might be stolen. Then they wouldn’t even have the right to protest. This was definitely not a scene they wanted to witness.

Although ancient creatures were rare, when combined from all Taoist states, they weren’t few. Now that they had gathered together, their strength appeared even more formidable than that of Liu Village, making everyone wary.

The Ten Crown King and others did not speak up, nor did they make a move. They were still observing.

This type of behavior did not match their character, but the pitiful state of Banished Immortal put them on alert. They might be confident and invincible, fearless, but they were not rash. They knew when to advance and when to retreat, and they would never act recklessly.

If you are dissatisfied, then come forth. Why are you just shouting from down there!” Gu Chen coldly snorted, looking as imposing as a great deity.

His vital energy was unabating. The ordinary Ferocious Ape Body Treasure Technique, combined with the Sky Tyrant Blood, brought about an unimaginable transformation, causing his body to grow tens of times taller. Behind him loomed the phantom of a mountain-like Giant Ape, roaring.

The ancient creatures looked at each other but not one dared to be the first to step onto the stage. Despite their tough talk, they were not fools. They were well aware of Gu Chen’s strength; he was not someone who could be easily suppressed.

But finally, someone couldn’t hold back.

A purple-haired youth known as Purple Flame, who was quite powerful and had defeated many along his path, made his move. Purple Thunder and Lightning flickered as it was mercilessly slashed towards Gu Chen.

“Such paltry tricks. If ancient creatures are only at your level, then it’s better to not embarrass yourself on stage!”

Gu Chen’s face never changed color. His massive palm swung around, tearing through the void and directly grasping the purple thunder and lightning from the sky. He crushed it with a squeeze, and all the electric sparks disintegrated, vanishing completely.

Moreover, without any hesitation, his mighty hand descended forcefully on the purple-haired youth, sending him flying.

“Pfft!”

The purple-haired youth couldn’t dodge in time and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. His vitality was diminished to an extreme. Although he wasn’t dead, he was no longer capable of continuing the fight.

After that, other ancient creatures chose to make their moves. All of them were once famous figures, but they were suppressed on the spot within a few exchanges.

Gu Chen had completely fallen into a mad frenzy. Apart from a few lucky ones with life-saving means, nearly all the rest were killed on the spot. There was no glorious technique used, just ordinary punches and palm strikes that no one could withstand.

Many sighed and felt that this youth, who seemed like a great god or demon descending into the world, was about to rise. Aside from the first Banished Immortal, the rest of the challengers weren’t even a match for him. They couldn’t even force him to take a step back.

“Do you want to fight me?”

On the other side, after Lin Hai knocked out a challenger with one punch, his gaze fell on a youth wielding a longsword with a burning curiosity.

This man was known as Lone Orphan Sword, the number one genius from Sword Valley, hailed as the youngest king in Sword Valley’s history. He was highly respected even among other ancient creatures.

Indeed, he was impressive. The man stood there like an unsheathed sword, sharp edges revealed, as if at any moment he would pierce the sky.

Lin Hai had only ever seen this aura from one other person, Lin’s uncle with the broad sword.

Yet there were differences between the two.

Although Uncle Broad Sword gave off the same sharp aura, it was not oppressive. He was more like a sheathed sword. Once truly drawn, it would cut through the sky.

“As you wish!” Lone Orphan Sword took to the air.

The two quickly tangled together in combat.
