Chapter 1303: Chapter 250: Heroes Gather, Monsters Converge_2

She informed Gu Chen that coming to the City of Light was solely to see him, and now, having met and spent half a month together, Gu Qingyan was already very satisfied.

Gu Chen furrowed his brows; he certainly did not want Gu Qingyan to leave and wished to always protect his sister.

However, Gu Chen also understood the meaning behind Gu Qingyan’s words. His sister did not want to always bother him because, if that were the case, wouldn’t it be just like the situation back in Jiuzhou.

This did not align with Gu Qingyan’s initial intention for her practice; she wanted to be able to help Gu Chen.

With that thought, even though Gu Chen’s heart was extremely reluctant, he ultimately could only nod in agreement.

He was unwilling to interfere even in Long Yi’s future, let alone his own sister.

Although not of the same mother, in Gu Chen’s eyes, Gu Qingyan was no different from his own sister, and his uncle and aunt were like his parents.

"Be careful in everything!" Gu Chen said and gave Gu Qingyan a way to contact him.

"Brother, you too, take good care of yourself." Gu Qingyan spoke softly and glanced at him and Princess Xidie.

In fact, over half a month ago when they met, Gu Qingyan had secretly given Gu Chen an extremely rare holy medicine, which was a full seventy thousand years old!

At that time, upon receiving it, Gu Chen was also greatly shocked. No wonder the Three-Eyed God Clan and the Fire Sect were so relentless in pursuing Gu Qingyan, it turned out to be because of this rare treasure.

A seventy-thousand-year-old holy medicine was very rare even in the upper realms, and for those supreme prodigies, it was immensely useful for their breakthroughs to the heavenly realm, enough to serve as a main ingredient.

Yet such a rare treasure was casually handed over to Gu Chen by Gu Qingyan.

Or rather, from the beginning, Gu Qingyan had obtained this seventy thousand year old holy medicine for Gu Chen.

Like Gu Chen, in Gu Qingyan’s eyes, her brother was above all. Seventy thousand year old holy medicine, even if it were a divine medicine before her, she would give it to Gu Chen.

Afterward, having arranged a way to communicate, Gu Chen and the others watched as Gu Qingyan departed.

At this moment, Yun Zishu and Brother Zhen Yuan exchanged glances and also said to Gu Chen, "Brother Gu, we might also need to leave."

"What is this..." Gu Chen furrowed his eyebrows, not expecting that after just having reunited, they would have to part again.

Yun Zishu and Brother Zhen Yuan smiled faintly, very carefree, saying, "Gatherings and partings are the common state of life, moreover, we are all in the Holy Realm, meeting each other is not difficult. Brother Zhen Yuan and I don’t want to trouble you; we plan to find our opportunities on our own."

Brother Zhen Yuan also said, "The Three Thousand Six Hundred Realms’ Ten Thousand Tribes competition is a rare opportunity for trials. We want to rely on ourselves. Brother Gu, you have many matters to attend to, you need not be distracted by constantly looking after us."

"Alright." Gu Chen nodded, and after setting a contact method, the two also departed.

The reason they had not planned to meet in the City of Light was because no one knew how long this retreat would last.

At this time, Gu Chen turned to look at Princess Xidie, who glanced at him and said with a touch of annoyance, "What, you want to send me away?"

"I didn’t mean that." Gu Chen said with a smile, shaking his head.

Princess Xidie’s eyes and teeth sparkled, hesitation flickering within, but after a moment, she softly said, "I also need to leave."

Of course, she did not want to leave Gu Chen, but she also knew that with her strength, if she just settled at this level, it would be hard to provide any help to Gu Chen, rather, she would only be a burden.

Therefore, although Princess Xidie hesitated, she still decided to search for her own opportunity in the Holy Realm to achieve the greatest improvement—not seeking to catch up to Gu Chen, but hoping not to fall too far behind him.

Actually, by now, Princess Xidie’s strength was not weak. In the merged realm, except for those prodigies of the last era, the immortal ranks of the upper realms, and the top ten clans, she feared no other cultivators.

Clearly, after entering the Holy Realm, she had also gained considerable opportunity.

"Alright." Gu Chen nodded and watched as Princess Xidie departed.

Then, he too set off, heading towards a treasure land he had previously learned about.

Though it’s called a treasure land, it actually consisted of numerous small worlds interconnected with the Holy Realm.

Moreover, these minor worlds contained distinct great paths, and for this reason, those who wished to break through to the heavenly realm could also find places best suited for themselves.

In the past, before entering the sacred realm, the headmaster of Qingyun Academy, Situ Yin, had recommended several locations to Gu Chen, which he had etched into his memory.

Soon, after spending some time, Gu Chen finally arrived at his destination.

It was merely the exterior, yet it was packed with a sea of people, surrounded by a large number of cultivators.

Among them, many had extremely powerful auras, making this place a gathering of heroes!

This scene was, in essence, a microcosm of the sacred realm as it was today, where various treasures attracted scores of cultivators who needed to compete.

After all, apart from those top demons, other cultivators also needed to enter these minor worlds to cultivate and break through.

Gu Chen’s arrival attracted considerable attention as his reputation was well known in the sacred realm.

Slaying Qi Ling from the Ten Thousand Stars Palace and Bu Feng from the Nine Heavens Hall had significantly boosted Gu Chen’s influence.

"It’s Gu Chen!"

Now, as these cultivators saw him, their expressions changed immediately and they couldn’t help but clear a path for him.

Gu Chen, maintaining his composure, walked toward the deepest part of the area and soon saw that there were eight light gates suspended in the air, leading to eight different minor worlds.

"No wonder there are so many cultivators gathered here," Gu Chen realized.

The sacred realm was much like the higher realm, very vast and connected to many minor worlds.

Apart from Gu Chen, there were also quite a few top demons who had come here.

In the forefront, Gu Chen saw a strong, mountainous young man standing there, his brows and eyes emitting a ferocity that sent chills down one’s spine.

Those with uncertain willpower, upon facing him, would involuntarily want to submit.

"The young master of the White Tiger Clan!" a cultivator nearby said solemnly with a heavy expression.

The White Tiger Clan, also known as the Ancient Fierce Tigers, controlled the power of slaughter, and it was no wonder the young man appeared so ferocious and could subjugate the will of cultivators.

The young master of the White Tiger Clan, seeing Gu Chen appear, also had a solemn gaze and briefly sized him up, obviously aware of his reputation.

Along with the young master of the White Tiger Clan, there was another handsome young man standing on the other side, his body radiating auspicious clouds, his hair faintly shimmering with rosy light, and his body aglow with five colors of light.

This person was the young master of the Kirin Clan!

The White Tiger Clan, the Kirin Clan, both were among the top ten races of the upper realms, and both individuals’ strengths were immensely powerful, surpassing Qi Ling and Bu Feng by quite a margin.

Yet even so, upon seeing Gu Chen, they too did not dare to be careless.

In addition, there were two groups led by equally extraordinary individuals; one exuded a sharp aura, his face as if carved by a knife, his expression extremely cold.

This person was a descendant of the Great Red Sky Palace, one of the twelve great immortal Dao lineages of the upper realm.

The other individual had a mysterious aura, seemingly there and yet imperceptible, as if he didn’t exist.

Standing next to the foremost successor of the Great Red Sky Palace, his status and strength were obviously not to be underestimated.

He was a successor of the Immortal Class Lingxu Ancient Cave!

Gu Chen’s eyes flickered as he regarded these four individuals, thinking that the sacred realm was so vast, with so many treasures revealed, yet he had unexpectedly encountered four top demons here.

At this moment, as Gu Chen was sizing them up, the members from the White Tiger Clan, the Kirin Clan, the Great Red Sky Palace, and the Lingxu Ancient Cave were also staring intently at Gu Chen!
