Chapter 1373
Looking down on the common people with a high and mighty attitude, even if foreign enemies invaded the territory, it was just a new game.
Proud, noble, despising everything.
Gu Chen clearly did not see anyone, but he inexplicably understood the existence of the strongest existence in the dark.
This might be because the other party's aura was too strong and it was revealed invisibly, or it might be intentional.
No matter which one it was, Gu Chen knew that he had been found out about sneaking in here.
His extraordinary spiritual perception completely enveloped this territory, and anyone who entered had nowhere to hide. He was too careless!
Realizing this, Gu Chen simply stopped sneaking and walked forward openly.
He had to figure out how strong the existence in the dark was, and he had to figure out the situation of the old Black Tortoise.
In order to achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to sacrifice a clone.
Gu Chen turned around the canyon, and his ears were drowned by the loud noise.
It was the sound of countless insects and countless wings flapping.
His gaze swept forward, and a large expanse of silver light was madly surging towards him!
The king did not bother to make a move, but it did not mean that the insect swarm would ignore him. The insect race's territory was obviously not so easy to invade.
Gu Chen was expressionless, and his whole body raised a surging aura as he killed his way through!
…
"Failed."
Outside the canyon, Gu Chen opened his eyes and said with a solemn expression.
He originally wanted to let the clone open the way to figure out the situation inside, but who would have thought that the distance he could advance was very limited.
There were too many insects, and the clone could not break through in the end. He could not find the old Black Tortoise's whereabouts, nor could he see the peerless king of insects.
Gu Chen did not explore for long, and his expression was so gloomy that Fatty Qian and the Qi family's ancestor immediately realized how dangerous it was inside.
"Sir, why don't we leave this place? We can think of other ways to leave the secret place. "
The Qi family's ancestor carefully suggested.
The old Black Tortoise was inexplicably defeated, and even the powerful and mysterious Gu Chen could not figure out the situation inside the canyon.
All the signs showed that continuing to interfere in this canyon would be a huge threat to their lives.
"Why don't I take a look?"
At this time, Fatty Qian suddenly recommended himself.
"You?" Gu Chen and Qi Clan's Xuan Zu looked at him.
"I have a more reliable way to spy on the situation in the canyon than sending a clone. I wanted to say it before." Fatty Qian explained.
"What is it?" Gu Chen asked curiously.
"Dream on. I can dream traverse this place and no one will be able to detect me." The fatty said confidently.
Gu Chen suddenly thought of the black dog. It had a similar ability, and now that he thought about it, it was probably an application of the Dream Law.
Compared to the black dog who had yet to reach the emperor realm, Fatty Qian, who was at the fifth level of the Dao Querying realm, should have been more proficient in using this ability.
"Can I only use this ability myself?" Gu Chen asked.
"No, as long as I help, you can do it too." Fatty Qian answered truthfully.
"Alright, I'll investigate with you again," Gu Chen said without hesitation.
Fatty Qian did not refuse, but glanced at Qi Family's Xuan Ancestor. "When we're dream-traversing, our bodies are defenseless. We need someone to protect us."
He did not make it clear, but it was obvious that he did not trust Qi Family's Xuan Ancestor.
This was probably the reason why Gu Chen did not say that he had this ability when he sent his clone. In the end, it was because the trust between the two sides was not enough.
"He will be responsible for protecting us. If something happens to us, he won't be able to escape."
Gu Chen looked coldly at Qi Family's Xuan Ancestor. Qi Family's Xuan Ancestor shivered and nodded hurriedly.
"Don't worry, my lord. I won't let anyone disturb you!"
Qi Family's Xuan Ancestor, who was under the Life and Death Seal, could not deliberately do anything to harm Gu Chen. He had previously relied on the old Black Tortoise because he thought that Gu Chen was dead.
"Alright, find another place to hide your body."
Fatty Qian agreed, and the three of them moved away from the entrance of the valley and dived hundreds of feet underground.
After temporarily opening up a hiding place, Fatty Qian felt a lot safer and sat down cross-legged.
"Now I'm going to use the Dao technique. Don't put up any defense in your brain, otherwise it will be difficult for me to succeed." He reminded.
Gu Chen nodded and entered the ethereal state according to Fatty Qian's instructions.
Fatty Qian and Gu Chen sat face to face, and his eyes slowly turned into ripples again. The strange power of the law of the origin of dreams slowly overflowed from his body, turning into a soft light that wrapped around Gu Chen.
Unconsciously, Gu Chen's eyelids began to become heavy, and finally fell into a deep sleep.
"Wake up, get up!"
Fatty Qian's voice came. Gu Chen slowly opened his eyes and found that he was no longer underground, but floating in mid-air.
His whole body appeared to be in an illusory state like a soul. His whole body was light as a feather, as if he could move millions of miles with a casual movement.
"It's really strange." Gu Chen sighed. The world was really full of strange things.
"Well, we can go in and investigate."
Fatty Qian took the lead and flew down the long rift belt, and Gu Chen followed closely behind.
Looking down from above, the rift belt was wider than Gu Chen had originally imagined, and the terrain was more complex. There were crisscrossing canyons everywhere inside, winding and intertwining with each other.
Gu Chen identified it at a low altitude and flew straight into one of the canyons.
It was the area where he had previously lost his halberd in the sand. At this moment, there were still a large number of silver beetles flying around.
"This number is really scary. Where did you go before?" Fatty Qian said in amazement.
"Over there."
Gu Chen pointed to an area in the valley where the ground was broken, which was the mark left by him when he broke through the insect swarm.
"You've broken through half of the area. At least tens of thousands of insects died in the hands of your doppelganger, right?"
Fatty Qian estimated, and finally muttered. "You really are a monster."
The two illusory souls floated straight into the canyon full of fierce insects. This time, those silver beetles didn't notice them at all. Gu Chen didn't have the feeling of being spied on by the Insect King like before. He felt much more at ease.
"Look, the treasure must be in that place!"
As they were about to pass through the canyon, Fatty Qian suddenly pointed to some caves on the mountain wall and said excitedly.
From time to time, there were silver beetles going in and out of those caves, and they were often carrying some exotic flowers and rare herbs or precious materials.
"If we find more people, we can take down the insect swarm's treasure house!"
Fatty Qian happily calculated, as if he had completely forgotten the threat of the mysterious existence in the valley.
"Let's get down to business first."
Gu Chen shook his head, and his soul body accelerated forward.
The two left the valley and finally came to the deepest part of the insect nest.
At the entrance of the valley, there was a Kui covered in bruises, quietly resting, and not far from it, there was a huge Rock Snake King.
They were like guards, guarding the throat of the nest!
Gu Chen and Fatty Qian looked at each other. Although they knew that the two beasts could not see, they still subconsciously became cautious.
If the Kui guarded the gate, then was it still the head beast?
