Chapter 732

The amount of information Gu Chen received was too great. He kept shuttling through the River of Time, searching for the whereabouts of the Nine-Tiered Heavens. However, he discovered that everything related to the Nine-Tiered Heavens had been erased.

He tried to find the old Celestial Emperor from 4,555 years ago. He was the one who discovered the Ninefold Palace. That was the beginning of everything.

However, everything related to the old Celestial Emperor had disappeared as well. The cultivators of the Ancient Heaven had great magical powers. They had erased all the clues that could lead Gu Chen to the Ninefold Palace from the river of time.

"It can't have really disappeared. If that was the case, the Celestial Court wouldn't exist, and I wouldn't be here."

Gu Chen murmured. He used the Celestial Emperor's Light Fist to try to break the seal on the other party's memory of time and space.

Unfortunately, he failed. The Ninefold Palace was still missing.

Gu Chen could only continue moving forward in history. This period of time was extremely long and torturous. He seemed to have lived as long as the heavens.

He came to 85,555 years ago and saw an aurora rushing into the Ancient Planet Cang Huang from the universe. Then, its whereabouts were unknown.

Then, the gods of the heavens descended. An enormous white whale seemed to have lost its way and crashed into the Kunlun Continent.

After that, there was a cruel war. He saw Ancestor Gu Hao and the 68 immortals fight with all their strength, trying to repel the invading gods.

He saw the Yellow Spring come from beyond the heavens and descend into an ordinary human city in the Eastern Wilderness. It brought a curse to the city.

Ancestor Gu Hao appeared and fought with a skeletal daoist who walked out of the Yellow Spring. During this process, the terrifying domineering aura made the mortals in the human city faint.

Gu Chen watched this battle and seemed to have understood something.

Back then, the Ghost Emperor said that he saw him 85,555 years ago. It was probably at this time that he saw Ancestor Gu Hao.

That ordinary human city became the Ghost Ruins. Gu Chen didn't know which of the unconscious children in the city was the Ghost Emperor. He only knew that he couldn't change this part of history.

Gu Chen walked through the Kunlun Continent, which was now called Ziwei Continent, and witnessed many battles. He wanted to find the Ninefold Heavenly Palace, which had descended at the same time, but similarly, the imprint related to it had been erased!

This was the earliest time the Heavenly Palace had appeared in the Kunlun Continent, but he still had no clues. The situation was very serious!

"Where exactly is it sealed?"

Gu Chen's willpower wavered. He suspected that he might never be able to find the Nine-Tiered Heavens.

The other party could have sealed the Nine-Tiered Heavens at any point in the past, present, or future. If he were to search seriously, it would probably be very difficult for him to find it in his entire life.

This would take too much time, and experiencing such a long period of time was a terrifying drain on his mental strength.

He began to suspect that this was not a test, but a dead end.

"Where is it?"

Gu Chen stopped in the river of time, looking exhausted.

His hair began to turn white again, corroded by the power of time.

The longer he stayed in the river of time, the more serious the corrosion would be. Sooner or later, ashes to ashes, dust to dust!

He sat at the fork in the river of time, closed his eyes, and no longer searched blindly. Instead, he tried to sense the abnormalities in time.

After an unknown period of time, Gu Chen's black hair turned white, and he finally sensed something unusual!

In the river of time that was connected to the distant past, a strange roar came. There was a huge commotion there, as if some terrifying power was wreaking havoc, and even time and space were affected.

Swoosh!

Gu Chen suddenly opened his eyes, took a big step, and swam upstream!

He chased after the commotion, and the time around him was like the clouds and dogs, drifting unsteadily.

When he did not know how far he had chased, a huge hand that covered the sky and the earth suddenly appeared in front of him. It actually shattered the river of time and space, causing all order to be in chaos!

Gu Chen's body trembled, and he drifted in the storm of time and space, completely unable to control himself!

"Oh no!"

Gu Chen did not expect the commotion he was chasing to be so shocking that even time and space were affected, and he spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.

He tried his best to look in the direction of the huge hand, and he saw it shatter the ancient star, causing a powerful star soul to let out a mournful cry!

Gu Chen suddenly realized that the commotion he was chasing was actually the catastrophe of the ancient times. He had unknowingly arrived in the ancient times.

And the almighty that attacked from the depths of the starry sky was too terrifying. Not only did his attack destroy the ancient star, but it also disrupted time and space. Even his desire to pry into the catastrophe of the ancient times was affected!

This person could actually sever time and space to prevent people from prying into it. What realm had his cultivation reached?

Gu Chen's heart swayed. He wandered in the storm of time and space, and unknowingly, he was pushed to a certain place.

"This is … the Sky Market?"

Gu Chen looked around and found that he had actually arrived in the Sky Market, but he was not sure which period of time in the river of time he was in.

At this moment, after experiencing the storm of time and space, Gu Chen had completely lost track of how to find the Nine-Tiered Heavens.

He walked aimlessly, subconsciously passing through the ancient battlefield, passing through the bleeding stone statues, and finally arriving at the Hengduan Mountain Range.

After arriving here, he found that his illusory body was actually slowly solidifying. It was as though he had connected with this period of time and space, and his true body had appeared here!

"The Nine-Tiered Heavens is here?"

Gu Chen was greatly shocked. Such a phenomenon had never happened before. It could only happen when he was near the Nine-Tiered Heavens, which was also in a different space-time like him!

"Is it a coincidence, or is it fate?"

Gu Chen murmured. He crossed the forest and almost instinctively walked up the gourd-shaped mountain peak.

Once he walked up the mountain peak, his body completely solidified. He was finally sure that the person from the Ancient Heaven had actually sealed the Nine-Tiered Heavens here!

"The cause of the present has sown the fruit of the past?"

Gu Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry. The person from the Ancient Heaven had hidden the Nine-Tiered Heavens too deeply. Under normal circumstances, he was afraid that he would never be able to find it.

However, he had been here before. His experience in the present world had helped him greatly. The word "cause and effect" in time was truly profound.

Gu Chen seemed to have understood something. At this moment, his Heavenly Emperor's Time Fist had a new breakthrough!

"Could it be that that person saw my past and deliberately left the Nine-Tiered Heavens here?"

Gu Chen was greatly shocked and thought of a possibility.

What if all of this was not a coincidence?

Did the other party leave the Nine-Tiered Heavens here in the hope that he could find it and understand the cause and effect in time?

Gu Chen did not know which was the truth. If it was the former, it meant that the other party did not want him to pass the test at all and hoped that the legacy of the Celestial Court in Ancient Star would disappear.

If it was the latter, then the strength and intentions of this person were unfathomable …

Gu Chen walked up to the peak of the mountain and entered the cave abode. He happened to see the alchemy furnace inside emitting a dense glow and bursts of pill fragrance.

Bang!

At a certain moment, the lid of the alchemy furnace flew up, and an Immortal Pill floated out from inside. The Immortal Pill had a spirit and turned into a small deer.

"Who are you?"

The Immortal Pill had just been refined. The deer looked at the white-haired Gu Chen in front of it and asked in a daze.

Gu Chen smiled. He had already understood which time-space he was in.

"Nine-Tiered Heavens, return!"

He ignored the deer. His white hair danced in the wind as he punched the void with the Heavenly Emperor's Time Fist!

Not only did this punch contain the true meaning of time, but it also contained a trace of indescribable karmic power!

Boom!

The surrounding time-space collapsed, and Gu Chen left the time-space where the Immortal Pill was. His hair also turned black in the blink of an eye!
