Chapter 659

"Soon, everyone will know that you have joined the Martial Arts Hall. No one knows how the 68 Immortal Sects and the Gu Clan will react. So, transfer your men as soon as possible."

"I have already informed the Martial Arts Meet Hall Master. Let's wait for him to come."

Gu Chen said to the leaders of the various forces. Everyone was excited when they heard that Wu Lingxian would come to the Deep Demon Sea.

With the support of that peerless martial expert, even if they had to fight the 68 Immortal Sects head-on, they had nothing to be afraid of!

"Listen to the Deputy Hall Master. Let's split up and regroup our men. Let's consolidate our strength as soon as possible!"

With the Evil Ridge and the Gale Demon Hall as the leaders, all the forces moved quickly.

In the past, the Deep Demon Sea was like a plate of loose sand, each doing their own thing. However, due to the strong pressure from the outside world, they quickly united.

When a group of evil demonic cultivators with amazing combat strength united, the power that they burst out was enough to make the whole continent pay attention to them.

In the next few days, Gu Chen learned from the Gust Demon Hall's intelligence that after his battle with Zuo Chunqiu, the Gu Clan had increased their efforts to search for Zuo Chunqiu. Not only the Gu Clan, but the people from the Tai Hao Immortal Sect, the Revered Sword Sect, the Purple Sun Immortal Sect, and other forces were also active in various places, secretly searching for Zuo Chunqiu.

They valued Zuo Chunqiu far more than Gu Chen. Obviously, Gu Chen had killed the prodigies of their sects and should be the target of more hatred.

"Although everyone's attention is now on Zuo Chunqiu, according to the intelligence from our spies, the 68 Immortal Sects are mobilizing troops from various regions and preparing to enter the Deep Demon Sea.

"At the same time, the territories of the Gale Demon Hall, the Evil Ridge, and the Ghost Wailing Cliff are being watched to varying degrees. The important halls are also being attacked by the elders of the Immortal Sects.

"I'm afraid the 68 Immortal Sects and the Gu Clan are planning to wipe out all the forces in the Deep Demon Sea. Thanks to the Deputy Hall Master's warning, most of our men have been relocated, and there are not many losses."

Ruan Ji, Zhan Gui, and the others reported the situation with serious expressions.

Gu Chen's expression was tense. He expected the 68 Immortal Sects to react after the Deep Demon Sea forces surrendered to the Martial Arts Hall, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

It seemed like they were planning to wipe out the Martial Arts Hall before they digested the forces in the Deep Demon Sea. They didn't want to give the Martial Arts Hall any chance to expand.

"Right now, we're being attacked from both sides. We're facing the threat of the Ancient Corpses from behind, and the 68 Immortal Sects are preparing to encircle us."

The leaders smiled bitterly. The storm came too quickly.

For a long time, they had been hiding in the Deep Demon Sea, which was filled with barren mountains and unruly rivers. They had never been valued by the 68 Immortal Sects. Now that they had finally entered the sights of the 68 Immortal Sects, they were faced with a life-and-death situation.

"There's no need to worry too much. The waters are still muddy. We might still have the upper hand."

Gu Chen sneered.

Since the thirteen Immortal Sects wanted to play, he would play with them. He could also draw their power into the hole in the ground …

Gu Chen still needed to think carefully about how to set up the trap, but before that, he had to do something first.

Two days later, in a desolate area, Gu Chen and Gu Lian Yue met in private.

He had asked Gu Bing to arrange for the two of them to meet. After so many days, he had finally made it happen.

"The Martial Arts Hall is taking over the Deep Demon Sea? Cousin, you've caused quite a commotion, "Gu Lian Yue said as soon as they met.

Since the end of the Immortal Ascension Grand Meet, Gu Chen and the Martial Arts Hall had ceased all activities. All the factions thought that they had given up their ambitions. Unexpectedly, when the news came out again, it turned out that they had subdued all the factions in the Deep Demon Sea.

The Martial Arts Hall had Wu Lingxian as the top martial experts, and Gu Chen as the younger generation. What they lacked the most were subordinates.

Although the group of evil cultivators in the Deep Demon Sea was wild and hard to tame, when all of them joined forces, they would definitely outnumber any Immortal Sect's cultivators. It was enough to turn the Martial Arts Hall into a sect that was on par with the 68 Immortal Sects.

It was because they realized that the situation that hadn't changed for tens of thousands of years was about to change that all the factions were preparing to clean up the Deep Demon Sea under the leadership of Gu Yuanshan.

"Gu Chen, you'd better have a sense of propriety. Our new Clan Leader is hell-bent on having his own way now, and he's thinking of ways to kill you," Gu Lianyue kindly reminded him.

"Hell-Bent on killing me? Does this mean that not everyone in the Gu Clan wants me to die? I heard that the Grand Elder and Gu Xuanwu also came to the Deep Demon Sea. Is it true? "Gu Chen asked.

"The Grand Elder and the former Clan Head didn't come to the Deep Demon Sea to deal with you. They came here because of the intensification of the conflict between the clan and the Heavenly Dao Sect. On the other hand, they heard that there was an ancient corpse tide in the Deep Demon Sea."

"Oh?" Gu Chen's eyes flickered. "Why are they concerned about the ancient corpses?"

"I heard that there were some senior experts from the 68 Immortal Sects among the ancient corpses. Therefore, the elders in the clan are very concerned."

Gu Lian Yue wanted to say something but stopped as if this topic was a secret of the clan.

"Cousin Lian Yue, can you be honest with me? In fact, I just came back from the Heaven Pit's Earth Eye and saw some unexpected people. "

Gu Lian Yue was moved. "You went to the Heaven Pit's Earth Eye? You came out alive? "

"I just arrived at the entrance. Before I could go in, I encountered an immortal corpse."

Gu Chen smiled bitterly and told her about how he encountered an immortal corpse and how it was the Gu Clan's ancestor who saved him.

Gu Lian Yue's beautiful eyes revealed deep sorrow when she heard this. "Even my Gu Clan's ancestor has become a walking corpse?"

Gu Chen sighed. "Now can you tell me why the Gu Clan's ancestor appeared in the Heaven Pit's Earth Eye?"

Gu Lian Yue nodded. This was originally a secret of the clan and only a few people knew about it. However, since Gu Chen had seen the deceased Gu Clan's ancestor, there was no harm in telling him.

"Gu Chen, if I'm not wrong, the person you saw was likely a relative of the Dao Pivot Bloodline. It could even be your great-grandfather or Xuan Ancestor."

Gu Chen was greatly moved when he heard this.

"Do you know how the Dao Pivot Bloodline fell? Back then, your Xuan Ancestor and great-grandfather disregarded the clan's opposition and resolutely led many elites into the Heaven Pit's Earth Eye in order to seek a breakthrough and condense the Tyrant Body.

"After they went in, they never came back. This caused the Gu Clan's foundation to be greatly reduced, and our position was unstable for a time.

"Because of this, the elites of the Dao Pivot Bloodline, including the previous clan leader, were almost wiped out. Your grandfather became an orphan. The other five bloodlines also lost their flesh and blood relatives because of their risky attempts, so they held a grudge against the Dao Pivot Bloodline.

"The Spirit Platform Bloodline seized this opportunity to drive your grandfather out of the direct line of descent and gain the status of the main family in the clan."

Gu Chen didn't expect there to be such a hidden story. He was silent for a moment.

In this case, the Dao Pivot Bloodline had let down the Gu Clan. It was not unjust at all that they were driven out of the direct line of descent.

"What is in the Heaven Pit's Earth Eye? Why are my great-grandfather and the others so determined to go in? It's not just them. The powerhouses of the Thirteen Immortal Sects also went there at the end of their lives. What are they searching for? "

Gu Chen couldn't help but ask.
