Chapter 1712

Under normal circumstances, under the observation of the Spirit Eye, he was a person without any cultivation level. If he suddenly displayed considerable strength without any cultivation level, it would easily arouse suspicion and attract unnecessary trouble.

The shocked expressions on the faces of the Realm Sea garrison when they had discovered that his Dao power was erratic was enough to show how troublesome this matter was.

As the strongest sect in the Pei Nation, the cultivators in the Luo Sect naturally had a higher outlook and could easily see that he was unusual. Thus, he had to think of a way to solve this matter.

In fact, the problem was not difficult. When Gu Chen used the mystic technique energy and transformed it into Origin Power, the Spirit Eye could test the level of his Dao power.

Therefore, as long as he maintained the transfer of the mystic technique energy at all times, there would be no problem with his cultivation level in the eyes of outsiders.

The strength of his cultivation level could also be changed according to the amount of mystic technique energy that was transformed, which greatly increased his concealment.

If he were to show that his cultivation was only a hundred Daos of Power, even if his strength suddenly exploded to a thousand Daos of Power after fighting with others, others would only suspect that he was hiding his true cultivation. They would never have thought that his physique had other secrets.

The Glorious Ancient Overlord Body had a Qi-Locking supernormal power. After studying it hard for the past 655 years, he had been able to perfectly lock that massive Blood Qi.

Coupled with the concealment of the Ocean Tide Birth Mystic Technique, Gu Chen was sure that even some big shots in the Dao World would find it difficult to see the truth of his physique.

However, there was now a rune between his eyebrows. As long as Gu Chen used the mystic technique energy, this rune would appear.

In order to hide the secret of his physique, he would always use the mystic technique energy. This meant that this rune, like a tattoo, would become his symbol in the future.

This made him feel very helpless. A man with a cross tattoo on his head would probably be very eye-catching no matter where he went, right?

He had no choice. Compared to exposing the secret of his physique, attracting attention was a trivial matter.

"Are you imitating me?"

Heaven's Equal Emperor pointed at the third eye between his eyebrows and teased Gu Chen.

When he did not use the third eye, there was a vertical line between his eyebrows. However, Gu Chen had a horizontal line and a vertical line. Wasn't this imitating him?

Gu Chen looked at him speechlessly. He really wanted to say something, but there was a commotion in the forest nearby.

"Someone is approaching us!"

Everyone noticed that the commotion coming from the forest was not small. It seemed that a large group of people were moving, and their speed was not slow.

"The commotion caused by the breakthrough of the Secret Technique must have attracted someone."

Gu Chen's expression darkened. It wasn't strange for the Essence Qi here to attract the attention of cultivators or demonic beasts.

The newcomers quickly leaped out of the forest. They were actually soldiers clad in dark green armor, riding Wyverns.

There were more than a hundred of them, and they walked out of the forest one by one. Gu Chen's group showed vigilance.

When the soldiers saw Gu Chen's group, they sized them up and silently surrounded them in a battle formation, showing that they had enough combat experience.

However, they did not act immediately. Instead, they seemed to be waiting for something.

Not long after, a young man and a young woman rushed out of the forest riding a Flood Dragon. The Flood Dragon they were riding was obviously a grade stronger than the others.

"Eh? Why did the earlier commotion disappear? "

After the young man arrived, he looked around and finally fixed his eyes on Gu Chen's group with a slightly puzzled look.

Sure enough, they were attracted by the commotion caused by the breakthrough of the Secret Technique!

Gu Chen secretly sighed, but his face was indifferent.

"You really like to join in on the fun. We came here for nothing."

The woman beside the young man opened her red lips slightly, and a helpless look appeared on her face.

This woman's facial features were not very exquisite, but she had a heroic spirit. In particular, she was tall and wore a full suit of armor, giving people a feeling that she was not inferior to men.

Her aura was clearly much stronger than that of the young man beside her, and she also seemed to be a little older.

The young man was a little dissatisfied. He glanced at Gu Chen's group and said condescendingly. "Hey, let me ask you, what happened here just now?"

The expressions of Gu Chen's companions immediately turned cold. It was fine if he spoke to them in such a tone, but to speak to His Majesty the Celestial Emperor like this was simply courting death!

The group of people's expressions turned cold, and the battle-hardened soldiers present vaguely felt uneasy. In a state of vigilance, they all drew the spears on their backs.

"Nothing, we were just sparring here just now. Did we disturb you?"

Gu Chen's expression was calm, and his eyes signaled for everyone to control their temper as he replied indifferently.

"Hehe, is what you said true?"

The young man was skeptical and wanted to get to the bottom of it, but the woman beside him spoke up. "I see, it's us who disturbed you, my apologies."

The woman's voice was much more pleasant and polite than the man's, and with Gu Chen's reminder, everyone's expressions became a lot better.

The woman rode on the flood dragon and looked around, then smiled and said, "The scenery here is not bad, and we are also tired from the journey. I wonder if we can rest here for a while?"

She directly asked Gu Chen, and at a glance, she could tell that he was the leader of the group.

Gu Chen raised an eyebrow. This place by the river was not small, and it was not his home, so he had no reason to refuse.

"Of course you can, please go ahead."

Gu Chen replied calmly, then returned to his seat and chatted with his companions, pretending that he did not care about this group of people.

"Sorry for disturbing you."

The woman cupped her hands at Gu Chen, then let the people rest. Everything looked orderly, and the division of labor was clear. Clearly, she came from the military.

Gu Chen's group sat together, seemingly chatting casually, but in fact, they had been paying attention to this group of people.

There were about two hundred people in this group, and every one of them was riding a flood dragon. The emblems on their armor were also very clear, and they clearly belonged to a certain faction.

Unfortunately, Gu Chen and the others did not know much about the factions in Pei Nation, so they could not determine which faction they belonged to from the emblems on their armor.

"Leader, that woman insisted on staying here for no reason. I'm afraid she doesn't have any good intentions," the Evil Shark Emperor reminded Gu Chen softly.

"Is that important?" Gu Chen smiled nonchalantly.

Everyone was stunned when they heard that. That was true. They could roughly see the strength of these people, and they were not much of a threat to them.

"It would be great if they attacked us. My feet are blistered all the way here," Feng Yaya muttered.

Feng Yaya pouted. She looked at the group of Flood Dragons that were drinking water not far away. Her thoughts were crystal clear.

"Yeah, we're really going to die of poverty."

Zhong Shenrui felt a little sad, and he stared at the storage rings of the soldiers.

As the saying went, poverty stunted ambition. If someone was in a hurry to give them money, they would not refuse!

"Let's wait and see. If someone is blind, I won't stop you."

Gu Chen answered casually.

This mountain road was extremely remote, and there was only one direction ahead. This group of people passing through here made him a little curious about their destination.
