Chapter 1228
Senior Monk Ruoshan's entire body trembled as he walked step by step towards Abbot Ruochen who had fallen to the ground. Tears streamed down his face due to extreme despair.
No one could escape the control of fate. At this moment, Fang Wen was like the God of Fate!
The swastika symbol appeared on Senior Monk Ruoshan's palm. He was about to kill his Senior Brother with a single strike when something strange happened.
A sudden and ferocious force pressed him to the ground. As he was unable to move, he glanced upwards and saw a black-robed figure standing with his hands behind his back. The figure was standing in front of his Senior Brother and Junior Brother Ruochen, facing off against Fang Wen!
"You're finally willing to show your face."
Fang Wen stared at the valiant black-robed man in front of him and laughed coldly.
The person who had attacked was none other than Gu Chen. His original target was the Man with a Bamboo Hat but Fang Wen's appearance had disrupted his plans.
If he did not attack, the Senior Monks of the Tempest Temple would be defeated one after another. Even Hai Dongqing would not be his match.
If that happened, the Man with a Bamboo Hat would have lost before he could even show himself. Hence, he had no choice but to attack!
He and Fang Wen had been enemies for a long time. Today was the day to settle it!
"You were lucky enough to escape with your life in the Immortal Realm. I never thought you would dare to stir up trouble again."
Gu Chen stared coldly at Fang Wen.
At the mention of the Immortal Realm, the smile on Fang Wen's face disappeared instantly. His expression turned ferocious.
"Gu Chen, if the Heavenly Emperor's spirit had not interfered in the Tomb of the Heavenly Emperor, do you think you would be my match?"
"I admit that you do have some abilities in the Ninth Realm. However, you are no match for me. Today, you will understand!"
Fang Wen had come for revenge. As soon as he spoke, a terrifying Emperor-level aura rippled from his body. At the same time, the area within a thousand feet around him was filled with Buddhist light! Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Under the overwhelming pressure, all the cultivators who were fighting in the area, regardless of whether they were the monks of the Tempest Temple or the members of the Demon Realm, were all forced to retreat. Their faces were filled with shock!
"The power of an Emperor!"
Many cultivators fled in panic as though they had seen a snake or scorpion – they could not muster any will to resist at all!
Gu Chen was the first to bear the brunt of the storm-like power. He was enveloped by the vast pressure. At the same time, he had to protect Abbot Ruochen and Senior Monk Ruoshan, who were behind him.
His expression turned grim as he tried to move his fingers, only to find that it was extremely difficult to even move them!
"I've already proven my Dao and become a Martial Emperor a long time ago. If you're not wrong, I'm still stuck at the bottleneck of the Ninth Order Quasi-emperor, right?"
Fang Wen mocked.
Back in the Tomb of the Celestial Emperor, he had traveled with Gu Chen, so he already had a rough estimation of his strength.
He had never thought that he had lost in the Thearch Tomb. The only reason he had lost was because he was not from the Ninth Realm and could not obtain the recognition of the Ninth Realm's Celestial Emperor.
"Compared to the other young Supremes, you are indeed ridiculously strong."
Gu Chen looked at Fang Wen solemnly. This was the first time he had truly crossed swords with him.
He might have expected this, but Fang Wen's strength was still much stronger than he had imagined.
Gu Chen might have already possessed the ability to defeat regular emperors, but Fang Wen was different. He was originally a young Supremacy, and when he stepped into the Thearch Realm, his strength was far superior to regular emperors.
Furthermore, he possessed the terrifying dao technique that could restrain spirits and release sources. The Great Thunderclap Monastery's vast Buddhist power had been borrowed by him, making Gu Chen's situation even worse!
A Man with a Bamboo Hat already required Gu Chen to go all out. With the addition of the strongest Supremacy from the Outer Realm, Gu Chen was already mentally prepared. Today's battle was going to be abnormally difficult!
"Master, can Gu Chen win?"
At this moment, Ye Qingshuang, who was outside Mount Meru, was looking at Gu Chen from afar. Her face was filled with anxiety and nervousness.
The terrifying prowess emitted from Fang Wen's body was something that even they, who were outside the mountain, could clearly feel. Their hearts were trembling with fear, let alone Gu Chen who was in the eye of the storm.
Seeing how Gu Chen was like a small boat in the middle of a raging storm, she was truly worried.
Faced with her beloved disciple's question, Qiu Mengyi simply looked at the prowess Fang Wen emitted, and her charming face turned extremely ugly.
After her cultivation reached the Half Thearch Realm, she was certain that she was one of the strongest individuals in the Ninth Realm with her soul techniques. Only people like the Taoist Priest Feng Zhen could be compared to her.
After the collapse of the Divine Realm, the Outer Realm Hundred Seedlings descended. They might have caused a huge commotion, but she didn't think much of it. After all, they were all juniors in her eyes.
However, the Thearch prowess that Fang Wen emitted made her realize that she wasn't a match for him!
"Are all the young Supremacies from the Outer Realm so powerful? I heard that Gu Chen had killed quite a few Supremacies. He is actually that strong? "
Qiu Mengyi couldn't help but ask. She originally wanted to show mercy to Gu Chen when he was in danger and use this opportunity to propose a marriage between him and her disciple. However, from the looks of it, if she couldn't break through to the Thearch Realm, she wouldn't be able to help at all!
"Master, what's wrong?"
Ye Qingshuang saw that her master was distracted and asked anxiously.
Qiu Mengyi came back to her senses and glanced at the battlefield between Gu Chen and Fang Wen. She then looked at the Kun Peng Brothers who were in an intense battle with the Joyful Demonic Monk and revealed a bitter smile.
"Qingshuang, I'm afraid that Gu Chen will definitely lose. Even if you make a move, you won't be able to help him."
"How can this be?" Ye Qingshuang's charming face instantly turned pale. Her master had always been proud and was rarely so discouraged!
"That Fang Wen has already become a Thearch. With his talent and strength, he is already far superior to a regular Thearch. In addition, he can borrow the Buddha power of the Great Thunderclap Monastery. No matter how you think about it, that Gu Chen has no chance of winning."
"This is no longer a fight between equals. Because Fang Wen's strength is ten times or a hundred times that of Gu Chen. Gu Chen can't move at all and can only wait to be slaughtered."
"If I condense my soul spirit source, I will still be able to help. But now, I can't even see the Jingling Taoist. I can't even execute my plan."
"If Hai Dongqing and the Kun Peng Brothers work together with me to assist that Gu Chen, there might be a sliver of hope. However, the problem is that Hai Dongqing is being held back by the members of the Demon Region while the Kun Peng Brothers are being held back by the Joyful Demonic Monk. They won't be able to help at all."
Qiu Mengyi explained in detail while Ye Qingshuang's face turned even paler.
"If that's the case, only death awaits Gu Chen?" She muttered.
Qiu Mengyi went silent. Fang Wen was truly too powerful. With her experience, she couldn't think of any possibility that Gu Chen could turn the tables around.
Ye Qingshuang got a definite answer and gritted her teeth. She suddenly turned into a rainbow and skimmed towards Mount Meru!
"This girl, how can you be of any help at this time?"
Qiu Mengyi shook her head but didn't stop her. Instead, she followed closely behind.
No matter how bad the Great Thunderclap Monastery's current situation was, she had to participate in it.
Her divine senses were affected by the battle at the periphery and she couldn't find any traces of the Jingling Taoist. She could only get closer and search.
Since that was the case, she might as well let her disciple go. After all, under her supervision, she wouldn't allow her to do anything risky.
