Chapter 1245

"Forget external matters. Your thoughts shall be with me, and exist with heaven and earth."

"Stay here!"

A mysterious murmur came from the darkness. Every time it did so, the speck of light that was Gu Chen grew weaker.

"No, I can't."

Gu Chen's consciousness showed signs of struggle. He sensed that the black hole was trying to influence him.

His own body was trying to erase his thoughts and emotions. This was a very terrifying thing!

He struggled with all his might, but the murmur in the darkness grew louder and louder until it sounded like a huge bell.

"Stay here. Be with me, and exist with heaven and earth!"

Bang.

As if a flood had extinguished an inconspicuous flame, Gu Chen's speck of light completely dissipated in the darkness.

…

On Mount Meru. Within a short month, countless ambitious people from the Western Heaven Galaxy had responded to the Tempest Temple's call and gathered there. They were already prepared to set off for the Southern Peak Galaxy.

They had not set off yet because they were waiting for that person in the Purgatory of the Soul Path to make a breakthrough.

At this moment, in the Tempest Temple's abbot's monastery, Abbot Ruo Chen and the various hall masters were gathered together. Two huge creatures lay on the ground in front of them. Buddhist light constantly flowed from their bodies, and they were in a strange state.

"It's been so long. The two sacred beasts have clearly recovered. Why are they still unconscious?"

Monk Ruo Hai asked worriedly.

It had been a whole month since the Great Golden-Winged Roc and the White Whale had been seriously injured and unconscious in the battle with the Happy Demon Monk. Their bodies had clearly recovered after careful treatment, but the two sacred beasts were still unconscious. This worried many of the monks.

The time to head to the Southern Peak Galaxy to meet up with the Immortal God Coalition Army was getting tighter. If the two sacred beasts still did not wake up, how to settle them would become a big problem.

After all, Mount Meru would soon be empty. It would not be practical to bring the two sacred beasts with them then.

"Almsgiver Gu has not finished his seclusion. He should be done in a few days. The two sacred beasts are in a strange state. Let's wait for him to come out and ask him about this. "

Abbot Ruo Chen pondered. Many of the monks nodded.

With the Celestial Emperor's wisdom and vision, he might be able to tell what was wrong with the two sacred beasts and even wake them up.

"Hmm? What happened? "

Abbot Ruo Chen was chatting with his fellow disciples when he suddenly sensed a strange commotion coming from the back of the mountain. His expression changed drastically!

Inside the Yao-Sealing Pagoda, Hai Dongqing's expression was solemn as he slowly sheathed the Demon Saber of Yan Ling.

In front of him, a group of Pure Spirit Kingdom members had strange red eyes, and their expressions were somewhat stupefied.

Penglai Island Master watched all this from the side. He revealed a smile and praised, "Friend Hai is indeed extraordinary after advancing to Martial Emperor with the Saber Dao. To think that he can control so many Fiend Domain members in one go."

Hai Dongqing shook her head when she heard this. "I don't think this is a good idea. It might be a better choice to let them volunteer to go to the battlefield."

Penglai Island Master sighed and comforted him. "It's a good thing that Friend Hai is compassionate, but this is an emergency. This war is too important. If we let the Pure Spirit Kingdom members volunteer to go to the battlefield, they might flee or cause trouble. It will be too disadvantageous to the overall situation.

"Instead of taking such a risk, we might as well use the Demon Saber of Yan Ling to control them. I believe that if Gu Chen comes out of seclusion, he will also support this decision."

Hai Dongqing nodded. "I understand this. The Pure Spirit Kingdom is a great fighting force, but also a great hidden danger. When we go to war, we can't continue to imprison them in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda. This is the only choice we can make."

The two of them chatted and discussed how to make good use of the Pure Spirit Kingdom's military force. Suddenly, their expressions changed.

"What happened?"

The two of them left the Yao-Sealing Pagoda almost immediately and rushed to the back of the mountain at full speed!

Outside the Soul Dao Purgatory, the Dragon Horse and the black dog lay on the ground, guarding the place as usual.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded. The two beasts looked up and saw an extremely beautiful woman coming, so they lowered their heads again.

During this period, this woman came almost every day, and they were already used to it.

Ye Qingshuang walked to the two beasts and looked up at the Soul Dao Purgatory. Although she couldn't see anything, she still stared for a long time.

She had gotten used to this in the past month. Every day, she would come here to pray for Gu Chen, hoping that he would break through and end his seclusion.

Qiu Mengyi followed behind Ye Qingshuang. Seeing her like this, she shook her head helplessly.

Not long ago, she learned from Gu Chen's companions that he was married, and she told this to Qing Shuang.

She had told Qing Shuang this because she hoped that she would give up on Gu Chen. However, she didn't expect that she was still deeply in love with him and came here more frequently these days.

She said that she would completely forget him after this war, but this made Qiu Mengyi even more worried.

She knew her disciple all too well. She was already deeply in love with her. Saying this made her worry that she would risk her life on the battlefield.

"I don't want you to go to the battlefield, but no one can escape from this war. I can only try my best to protect you," Qiu Mengyi muttered to herself as she looked at her disciple's back.

Qiu Mengyi mumbled to herself as she gazed at her disciple's back. This war was of great significance to her as well. In a few days' time, she would be able to meet many of her colleagues in the Heavenly Court who had once worked together with her.

The past conflicts were no longer important at this juncture. She had already contacted Li Shunyu and Tang Ning. This time, she would once again lead an army as a Soul Sky General.

Hum —

Qiu Mengyi and Ye Qingshuang were looking at the Soul Dao Purgatory. Suddenly, the Soul Dao Purgatory in the void gradually disappeared!

The Dragon Horse and the black dog stood up almost immediately, their eyes shining. "Finally ended your seclusion?"

Everyone looked at the gradually dispersing Soul Dao Purgatory excitedly. They had waited for too long, and their minds were already on the battlefield in the Southern Sky Galaxy.

However, after the Soul Dao Purgatory completely disappeared, there was nothing in front of them. They did not see Gu Chen. They only saw a black vortex gradually shrinking and finally disappearing!

"What's going on?"

Abbot Ruo Chen, Hai Dongqing, Penglai Island Lord, and the others sensed the dispersing of the Soul Dao Purgatory almost immediately. They came to the place where Gu Chen was cultivating in seclusion.

Seeing that the place was empty and that there was no trace of Gu Chen, everyone had a very bad feeling!

"Where is Gu Chen? Did he break through? "

Ye Qingshuang's face was pale. Not seeing Gu Chen made her feel inexplicably anxious.

"There is no Emperor Phenomenon. He probably did not break through …"

Qiu Mengyi muttered to herself. A wave of cold air spread throughout her body.

When a cultivator broke through to the Dao Querying Realm, there would definitely be a shocking Emperor Phenomenon. It was even more impossible for a genius like Gu Chen to be completely silent.

However, the Soul Dao Purgatory was dispersing, and he was nowhere to be seen. There was no Emperor Phenomenon either. It was more likely that he had already …

"Did Gu Chen fail to break through?"

The Dragon Horse said with difficulty, voicing the same thought in everyone's mind.

Everyone's face revealed a tinge of despair.
