Chapter 669

The conflict between the two forces in Gu Chen's body was getting fiercer and fiercer day by day. Anyone with a bit of insight could see it. He didn't hide it and ridiculed him.

"Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself. Can you jump that last step? I'm afraid it won't be that easy, right? "

Zuo Chunqiu's smile faded after hearing this.

"If I'm not wrong, the Heavenly Emperor's Time Fist is very important for you to take that last step. Unfortunately, I can't give it to you, and now that we are allies, you can't attack me. You must be very anxious, right?"

Gu Chen poked at Zuo Chunqiu's sore spot, causing his eyes to flicker non-stop.

"The anxious one should be you. You are committed to pushing the continent conference, but now Gu Yuanshan's fingers have been chopped off, and the conference is still far away. You must be burning with anxiety, right? If this goes on, not only will you not be able to break through, but you will also lose your life. "

"Huh? What do you mean? I don't really understand. "Gu Chen found it funny.

It had been almost a month since Gu Yuanshan was captured, but the conference still hadn't been held, which was beyond his expectations. He was also quite anxious.

But what did this have to do with the cultivation bottleneck he had encountered?

"Don't play dumb. You have been exaggerating the danger of the ancient corpse tide, wanting all parties to hold a conference and form an alliance to enter the Heaven Crater Earth Eye. On the surface, you seem to be compassionate to the world, but cultivators like you and I pursue the Dao of Heaven and Earth. All living beings are like ants. So what if the ancient corpse tide ravages the entire continent? "

"The reason why you insist on entering the Heaven Crater Earth Eye is for yourself. The cultivation bottleneck you have encountered cannot be solved. Perhaps there is only a solution in the Heaven Crater Earth Eye."

Zuo Chunqiu sneered as if he had already seen through everything.

Gu Chen understood. Zuo Chunqiu thought that he wanted to enter the Heaven Crater Earth Eye to find a breakthrough, but he was worried about the dangers inside, so he wanted to drag all the forces down with him.

This kind of imagination was really strong. Gu Chen really didn't know where he got this basis, so he was too lazy to explain.

"It's useless even if you don't speak. Who can't see through your thoughts?"

Zuo Chunqiu thought that he had seen through Gu Chen's true thoughts, which made him speechless. He smiled and continued his analysis.

"According to our intel, Wu Lingxian was just an abandoned disciple of the Supreme Vast Celestial Sect a few decades ago. Due to his low aptitude, the 68 Celestial Sects were unwilling to accept him.

"And in just a few decades, he became one of the top powers in the world, the inheritor of ancient martial arts. Don't you think this story is too legendary?"

"According to the clues we found, Wu Lingxian once appeared in the Deep Devil Sea, so we have reason to speculate that he entered the Heaven Pit and obtained a great fortuitous encounter, and that's how he obtained his current accomplishments."

Gu Chen was astonished. The information that Zuo Chunqiu casually mentioned was something that he didn't know previously, and it allowed him to have a deeper understanding of Hall Master Wu.

"Wu Lingxian has entered the sinkhole's Earth Eye before, so he must know a lot about it. There must be something inside that can help you break through the bottleneck, right?"

"Perhaps even the Ancient Corpse Tide is a conspiracy of the Martial Arts Hall. The Martial Arts Hall wants to borrow the strength of various factions to break through the obstacles and obtain the opportunity in the Heaven Pit and Earth Eye."

Zuo Chunqiu's words were a little probing.

Gu Chen finally understood Zuo Chunqiu's thinking. It turned out that the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect actually thought this way.

He had never thought about this before. It was fine if Zuo Chunqiu misunderstood him, but was his analysis of Hall Master Wu correct?

Hall Master Wu also attached great importance to the problem of the Ancient Corpse Tide just like him. Could there really be some conspiracy?

While Gu Chen was pondering, Zuo Chunqiu saw that he didn't say anything and spoke again.

"Actually, I don't care what you think or what ambition the Martial Arts Hall has. You and I are both trapped in the bottleneck of cultivation, and we can sympathize with each other.

"I want to gather the fifty Great Evolutions, and you want to cultivate the Overlord Body and the Immortal Dao at the same time. Both paths are as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

"I have already thought it through. It's fine if you don't want to hand over the Time Secret Art. I might be able to break through on my own. As for you, hehe. "

Zuo Chunqiu had a face of schadenfreude. Gu Chen couldn't even cultivate, and the problem was even more serious than him.

"Since you are so open-minded, why are you talking so much nonsense with me? In my opinion, you haven't given up yet. "Gu Chen shook his head.

Zuo Chunqiu was a little speechless. What a sharp-tongued guy!

"Hmph, let's compete to see who will break through first!"

Without saying another word, he turned and left.

Gu Chen's eyes flickered as he looked at Zuo Chunqiu's back. If Zuo Chunqiu broke through first, this guy would definitely kill him. This was really an invisible race against time.

Just as Zuo Chunqiu was about to walk out of the forest, someone came in from the outside. It was Miao Fugui.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Yi asked casually and didn't even look at Miao Fugui.

Ever since Miao Fugui joined the Penglai Pavilion, his cultivation and aura might have improved tremendously. However, an absolute genius like Zuo Chunqiu didn't even bother to look at him. Now, the only one who could attract his attention was Gu Chen.

Miao Fugui looked at Gu Chen and Zuo Chunqiu in the forest, and a trace of jealousy and resentment flashed across his eyes.

He said politely, "The Gu Clan sent the latest news. The three elders asked me to call you two to the grand hall for a discussion."

Gu Chen and Zuo Chunqiu looked at each other. The situation had been in a stalemate for the past few days. Now that they wanted a discussion, there must be a new change in the situation!

The two left Miao Fugui and went to the grand hall immediately.

Seeing the two leave, Miao Fugui clenched his fists tightly with deep resentment flashing across his face.

What Twin Stars? How am I not as good as you? One day, I will surpass you and let the Penglai Island Lord know that I am the most talented one!

When Gu Chen and Zuo Chunqiu arrived at the grand hall, Hall Master Wu, the Penglai Island Lord, and the Tiandao Sect Master were already there. At the same time, some important members of the three forces were also there.

"The twelve immortal factions have agreed to hold a continent conference to discuss the Ancient Corpse Tide." Wu Lingxian smiled when he saw Gu Chen.

"Why did they suddenly change their minds?"

Gu Chen and Zuo Chunqiu were surprised. A few days ago, the twelve immortal factions were very firm in their opposition to the conference.

"Just a few days ago, the Taihao Immortal Faction and the Moon Palace were attacked by ancient corpses," the Tiandao Sect Master said.

Gu Chen was surprised. It seemed like the Ancient Corpse Tide had finally spread out of the Deep Demon Sea, and the seven regions of the continent were beginning to suffer.

"The ancient corpses that attacked the Taihao Immortal Faction and the Moon Palace happened to be the former top masters of the two factions. They entered the mountain gates, destroyed many important places, and killed many disciples, bringing great losses to the two factions.

"According to the analysis, the ancient corpses that came out of the Heaven Pit and the Earth Eye were so weak that they didn't have any intelligence. However, the heroes in history still had their subconscious and instinctively returned to the place they missed the most.

"These returning heroes are a big problem for the major immortal factions. They used to be the pride of the immortal factions, but now, after their resurrection, they have become a threat. The twelve immortal factions can't stand it anymore."
