Chapter 685

The dazzling aurora was fixed in the darkness, like a beautiful Milky Way hanging in the sky.

From afar, one could vaguely see a world inside the aurora with clouds and thousands of auspicious colors.

Ten miles away from the aurora, there were countless black shadows moving about. They were densely packed, and their eyes flickered with a treacherous green light as they surged forward continuously.

A large group of cultivators was surrounded. All kinds of magical treasures danced in the air as they yelled and fought a desperate battle against the incoming ancient corpse tide.

If one looked closely, they would find that all the magical treasures could only slightly float at a low altitude. Moreover, their light was dim as if they had lost most of their power.

The movements of the cultivators weren't loud either. It was closer to a bare-handed battle.

"Damn it! I thought the ancient corpse tide had been completely destroyed. I didn't expect so many to be hidden here! "

"Someone is controlling them to stop us from approaching that aurora. There's a conspiracy here!"

Many powerhouses roared as if they were trapped in a quagmire.

This place was extremely close to the earth's core. The terrifying gravity had reduced their strength by more than ninety percent. It was difficult to activate their magical treasures, and they couldn't fly in the air.

Under such circumstances, another large group of ancient corpses appeared, led by a few immortal corpses. The cultivators were besieged on all sides.

Under the siege of the corpse tide, all the cultivators of the thirteen immortal sects and the Gu Clan gathered together and stubbornly resisted.

However, because of the gravity here, their strength was greatly weakened. Even their immortal treasures couldn't unleash much of their power. If this continued, they would be doomed!

"We shouldn't have been greedy and come here. I'm afraid we're going to die here today!"

Everyone's mood was heavy. There were too many ancient corpses to count. The corpses didn't fear death or injury, but their injuries were gradually worsening. There was no hope in front of them.

Gu Yao and Gu Xuanwu were also covered in wounds. Their faces were full of regret.

In order to find the remains of their ancestors, they had come here but hadn't found a single one. Instead, all of their clansmen were in danger.

If they died here today, the Gu Clan's foundation would truly be exhausted. That would be a great calamity for the entire clan!

"Lian Yue, we shouldn't have let you come here. You're still so young."

Next to him, Gu Lianyue was panting with a pale face. Earlier, she was wounded by an immortal corpse.

"Great Elder, don't say that. I willingly entered the Heaven's Pit." Gu Lianyue replied, her eyes only focused on the enemy in front of her. She did not think about whether or not she would survive today.

"It's all Gu Chen's fault! It's all because he lied and tricked us into entering the Heaven Sinkhole Earth Eye. Otherwise, we wouldn't have encountered such a situation! "

"The Dao Pivot Bloodline tricked the entire clan, and now Gu Chen has harmed us again!"

At the moment of life and death, Gu Yuanshan's negative emotions exploded, cursing viciously.

Many of the elders were silent. What was the point of saying all this now?

"Everyone from the Gu Clan, shall we attack together and kill our way out?"

The Sect Masters of the thirteen Immortal Sects asked anxiously.

They were no longer interested in what was inside the aurora. They just wanted to return to where they came from and leave the sinkhole.

However, the tide of corpses had surrounded them in three layers, and the road they came from had been cut off. They were like duckweed in the water, with nothing to rely on.

"Alright, everyone, don't hold back. If you can't charge out the first time, your chances will be even smaller later on!"

Gu Xuanwu agreed and reminded them.

Everyone did not have much energy left, so they could only organize one wave of attacks.

Everyone nodded and quickly formed a sharp blade battle formation, piercing into the tide of corpses!

"Attack!"

"Kill our way out!"

Everyone was united. Wherever the sharp blade passed, a large number of ancient corpses fell to pieces. Not long after, they had pushed forward for several miles.

Seeing that the battle formation was effective, everyone's spirits rose, and they put in even more effort, trying to open a way out in one go.

"Roar!"

A terrifying roar resounded, and the ancient corpses in all directions made way. Corpses with crystal clear flesh and immortal qi surrounded them walked out.

There were ten of them, and their expressions were stiff and numb. They raised their palms and attacked the battle formation!

Boom, boom, boom!

The cultivators on the periphery were directly crushed into a bloody pulp. The Sect Master of the Purple Sun Celestial Sect was very unlucky, and he was killed on the spot by two immortal corpses!

"It's over."

Everyone's faces turned pale. They thought they had a chance to escape, but unexpectedly, ten immortal corpses appeared in one go!

The ten immortal corpses attacked together, shattering the weak points of the battle formation. Everyone shrank into a ball, as if they were walking on thin ice.

"Haha, Jie, humans die in pursuit of wealth, just as birds die in pursuit of food. This saying is absolutely correct."

The ten immortal corpses surrounded all the cultivators, and there were countless ancient corpses behind them. At this time, they actually spoke together!

The voices coming out of their mouths were exactly the same. That strange laughter reverberated between heaven and earth, making everyone shudder.

"Who are you? Are you behind all of this? "Gu Yao questioned loudly.

The situation was very clear. The reason there was a tide of ancient corpses was because someone had controlled a large number of corpses here!

All the cultivators were shocked. The Heaven Pit Earth Eye had buried countless geniuses in countless years. They had originally died, but under the control of a mysterious person, they were resurrected.

Just how strong was this person? How could he control so many ancient corpses? Even immortal corpses were no exception!

They couldn't understand. This was probably something even immortals couldn't do. Just what was this person's background?

"You want to know this seat's name? Haha, I'm afraid none of you are qualified. "

The immortal corpses spoke in unison, their tones filled with strong disdain. "This seat doesn't want to waste words with you. I just want to ask, where is Gu Chen?"

Where is Gu Chen, where is Gu Chen … …

His voice reverberated in the air, shocking everyone.

This unfathomable mysterious person, why did he mention that Gu Chen's name?

Even though the other was an extremely talented junior, there were many peak cultivators of the Immortal Spirit Continent here, so he should be valued more than him.

"See! I'm right! That Gu Chen tricked us, he's an accomplice with this person! They're accomplices, that bastard brat! "

Gu Yuanshan said angrily, as if he had discovered some truth.

"That's impossible, why would Gu Chen do such a thing?" Gu Lian Yue's face was pale, unwilling to believe Gu Yuanshan's guess.

Even though they hadn't seen the ancestor that Gu Chen spoke of, Gu Lian Yue didn't think that Gu Chen would harm them.

Compared to Gu Lian Yue, many of the Gu elders were shaken by Gu Yuanshan's words.

"Hm? So you're from the Gu clan, where is Gu Chen? "

The immortal corpses all looked at Gu Yuanshan, their ghostly eyes glinting fiercely.

"I don't know!"

Gu Yuanshan's expression changed as he was locked on by the aura.

"Hmph, no one knows where he is?"

The mysterious man looked around at all the people present and said in a very unhappy tone.

Many cultivators looked at each other. After being reminded, they realized that not only was Gu Chen not here, but Wu Lingxian was also not here. Even the Penglai Island Lord was nowhere to be seen.

"Since you don't even know where he is, what's the use of keeping you?"

The mysterious person seemed to be annoyed. As soon as he finished speaking, countless ancient corpses roared in unison!

The roars were earth-shattering, their murderous intent shooting into the sky!
