Chapter 1271: Chapter 234: Showdown with the Strongest of the Contemporary Immortal-Level Dao Lineages (Three Updates of Ten Thousand Words, Please Subscribe!)

Ten Thousand Stars Palace, one of the twelve Great Undying Dao Clans of the Upper Realm, while Unrestrained Sect, is a powerful hidden Dao clan.

Now, a number two figure from the younger generation of an Undying Dao clan, also the eldest disciple of the Unrestrained Sect’s hidden clan, both at the Great Unity Stage, met untimely deaths within moments.

Tens of thousands of cultivators in the city witnessed this scene and immediately went silent as if stricken by frost.

Although they already foresaw the outcome of the battle when Gu Chen had forcibly resisted a Seventh-grade Divine Skill with his flesh, they were shocked by the swiftness of the end—light flashed, and the fight was over.

Keep in mind, both Su Yao and Zheng Ran must have had innate divine treasures in their possession, but still, they perished so swiftly.

This only proved that Gu Chen’s strength far surpassed theirs by too much. They were simply not on the same level, hence the result.

And the disturbances caused by his recent action were nearly apocalyptic, instilling fear in countless onlookers.

"This time, Qi Ling, chief disciple of Ten Thousand Stars Palace, really can’t remain seated, can he?" a cultivator whispered.

"Although Qi Ling is powerful, can he truly be a match for Gu Chen?" another young cultivator murmured, truly shaken.

For a moment, everyone fell silent. If Gu Chen had fought Qi Ling just before, they would have naturally had no surprises and all would have favored Qi Ling.

But now, the answer was completely the opposite!

"The chief disciples of the Great Undying Dao Clans are not as simplistic as you imagine!" Then, another person spoke up, choosing to support Qi Ling.

"As for the specifics, we’ll see as it unfolds," another commented, their eyes blazing.

"Is it coming?" At that moment, Gu Chen raised his head, gazing at the far-off sky. He sensed an extremely powerful force rapidly approaching this place, as swift as a shooting star.

Gu Chen had, of course, clearly perceived the covert messaging tactic that Su Yao had used to contact Qi Ling.

"Indeed, it could be considered extraordinary," Gu Chen nodded to himself. In his perception, Qi Ling’s aura was far stronger than any other young cultivator he had encountered.

To describe it, one could only say that while the others were like ordinary stars, Qi Ling was like the great sun high in the sky, illuminating the world below!

Between the two, there was hardly any comparability; the difference was vast.

"Here it comes!"

At this moment, a divine light flashed in Gu Chen’s eyes, and he saw a purple-robed figure gradually appearing in the nearby sky.

As the strongest successor in the current generation of the Great Undying Dao Clan, this would be Gu Chen’s first encounter.

Not just for him, but for the many cultivators present, this was also their first glimpse of the legendary Qi Ling.

"Is that the current chief disciple of Ten Thousand Stars Palace?" When they clearly saw the purple-robed figure, shock resounded in the hearts of the many cultivators present.

Qi Ling, clad in purple robes, possessed extraordinary composure as he stood high above in the sky, resembling a sovereign of the stars. His eyes, when they opened and closed, shone with dazzling starlight.

Or rather, Qi Ling’s entire being was enveloped in a halo of starlight, appearing exceedingly extraordinary.

"Is it finally starting? To witness such a level of battle with my own eyes, this trip has truly been worthwhile!" Numerous cultivators were excited beyond measure.

Following behind Qi Ling were a dozen more cultivators, belonging to both Ten Thousand Stars Palace and Unrestrained Sect.

As soon as Qi Ling arrived, he saw the corpses of Zheng Ran and Su Yao below, who had died with eyes wide open, clearly having suffered a great shock before death and bearing expressions of horror.

This was naturally due to Gu Chen’s strength.

"Are you Gu Chen?" Qi Ling spoke, his voice cold, with a surge of anger from his chest.

It had been many years since he had been this angry, and today’s fury was not because of the death of Zheng Ran and others.

But rather, because Gu Chen’s actions were an undisguised affront to both Ten Thousand Stars Palace and himself, making Qi Ling naturally furious.

"I will judge and thoroughly quell you in front of an audience, regardless of who you are!" Qi Ling declared.

...

Meanwhile, in the Upper Realm, across three thousand six hundred domains.

It had been some time since the Dao Gold List showed any images. Suddenly, a formidable figure from the domain of Ten Thousand Stars Palace, who earlier had ridiculed the head of Qingyun Academy, Situ Yin, extended a finger.

He wanted to see if Qi Ling of Ten Thousand Stars Palace had now reached the Heavenly Realm.

As the name "Qi Ling" was engraved in the void and turned into a streak of light that entered the Dao Gold List, numerous formidable beings took interest as well.

Qi Ling, the strongest current successor of Ten Thousand Stars Palace, was no weakling, and these powerful beings paid close attention to such exceptional monsters.

Buzz!

The light shimmered, and a picture appeared on the Dao Gold List, with Qi Ling in his purple robes emerging first.

"He hasn’t reached the Heavenly Realm yet?" After sensing Qi Ling’s aura, the formidable being from Ten Thousand Stars Palace frowned slightly.

But soon, as the image enlarged and more details of the scene came into focus, not far from Qi Ling, a figure in dark robes stood opposite him, possessing an equally extraordinary demeanor.

"Hmm?"

Seeing this scene of two monsters facing off, the powerful beings also showed a measure of interest.

After all, anyone capable of drawing Qi Ling into action was definitely not an ordinary character but instead would be one of the most exceptional geniuses of the Upper Realm.

"Whose descendant might this be?" The powerful beings watched intently.

However, as they clearly saw the features of the figure in dark robes, they were momentarily taken aback.
