Chapter 1341: Chapter 272: Unprecedented Situation in the Multitudes of Heavens and Eons_2

While the elder who spoke was referred to by Ren Fei as "Master Gong," they were continuously scrutinizing Gu Chen.

Seeing this, Gu Chen also acted promptly, as the few present immediately greeted with clasped fists.

Although, within the Holy Realm, the three elders were just "half-step giants," if the Holy Realm were to collapse and the ceiling of suppression disappeared, these three had a very high probability of becoming supreme beings.

Moreover, Gu Chen had come in search of the path, so he obviously couldn’t afford to sour relationships.

"If it’s really as Xiao Ren described, then he indeed is a promising seedling." At this time, Mater Mu, who was the deputy master of the palace, also spoke, nodding and looking at Gu Chen with some admiration.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyan and the others immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as they genuinely worried that the people of Qingyun Palace might refuse to acknowledge Gu Chen’s identity, leading to potential conflicts between the two parties.

However, it now seemed that this possibility was very low; the upper echelons of Qingyun Palace still recognized Gu Chen.

At this moment, the master of Qingyun Palace spoke, his deep gaze sizing up Gu Chen, "Xiao Ren mentioned that you seek the divine transmission created by the Heavenly Lord in the past?"

"Exactly." Gu Chen nodded candidly, "The junior has already learned three of its styles outside, just short of the last two to complete it. I hope the senior could help fulfill this."

Saying so, Gu Chen clasped his fists in a gesture of courtesy.

The three elders, upon seeing this, also exchanged discreet glances and nodded to each other. Having lived extremely long lives, their discernment was still extraordinary, naturally distinguishing the exceptional nature of Gu Chen.

Moreover, since both parties originated from the same place, both being cultivators of Azure Cloud Sky, there was no need to make things difficult for each other. Hence, the three elders did not think of giving Gu Chen undue hardships and were ready to agree.

"The divine transmission is for those capable. It’s okay to show it to you, but before that, you need to prove your identity. After all, this transmission is no trivial matter," said Master Gong.

"Of course, no problem," Gu Chen responded, nodding slightly. He then formed hand seals; in an instant, the void around nearly solidified, and a phantom of a sacred mountain manifested in the sky above.

Soon after, with another transformation of the seal in his hands, the sacred mountain vanished, transforming into a boundless ocean forming huge waves that appeared behind him.

It was the second style after the Moving Mountain Seal—Suppressing the Sea!

Lastly, Gu Chen slightly altered his seal again. The Earth-breaking Seal was unmanifested, but that aura had everyone in the venue shaken involuntarily.

"Enough!" The three palace masters nodded, their expressions somewhat excited.

They had already believed everything that Ren Fei had said.

To achieve this in the Unified Realm was undoubtedly unique in the history of Azure Cloud Sky!

"Wait!" Just then, suddenly, a voice interrupted everything.

Gu Chen and the others quickly saw a young man emerging from a nearby palace; he had a tall and slender figure, and his features could certainly be considered handsome, extraordinary in appearance.

"Young Palace Master!"

Seeing this young man, everyone present immediately performed greetings, including Ren Fei and the other Great Powers.

"I have greeted the three palace masters," the young man approached where Master Qin, Master Gong, and Master Mu were and paid his respects.

"Hmm," Master Qin nodded and asked, "You just said ’wait’, is there any issue?"

The young man, who was the Young Palace Master of Qingyun Palace, named Ye Yang, was rumored to possibly be a descendant of the previous Great Era’s Heavenly Lord of Azure Cloud Sky!

Of course, these were just rumors without much concrete evidence to prove this point.

Nonetheless, Ye Yang was exceptionally gifted, undeniably the most outstanding among his generation in Qingyun Palace, and also the future heir to the palace, a Great Power of the Heaven Realm with considerable cultivation.

These pieces of information, Long Yi had learned from his clansman in Qingyun Palace and communicated to Gu Chen at the highest speed.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yang turned his body around, looked at Gu Chen, and said, "Palace Master, I think giving him the divine power so easily is really too careless. We haven’t appeared in the outside world for a long time and have no knowledge of the external situation. Surely we can’t just give away the legacy to someone who pops up and claims it’s related to Azure Cloud Sky, can we? Being so easily trusting of people, we might inevitably encounter mistakes."

His words meant that there was a significant probability that Gu Chen could be a fraud.

Upon hearing this, Ren Fei immediately frowned because Ye Yang’s words were also denying him, feeling that he was unclear in his discernment of people and had brought someone here without proper investigation.

Therefore, he spoke, "I have sensed a similar origin aura on Brother Gu’s body. He definitely has a profound connection with my Azure Cloud Sky, there’s no doubt about it."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yang’s lips curled slightly as he casually remarked, "Elder Ren, you’re already of such an age, why are you still so easily trusting of others? Just because someone cultivated the techniques or divine powers of our Azure Cloud Sky, does that definitely make them part of Azure Cloud Sky?"

With these words, many within Qingyun Palace frowned, sensing a hint of mockery.

Because originally, there were many beings here who were not cultivators from Azure Cloud Sky in the last era, but the Heavenly Lord, being merciful, had still chosen them and brought them here.

Ye Yang’s words not only targeted Gu Chen, but also sarcastically included these people; thus, Mater Mu, Master Gong, and Master Qin, the three leaders of the palace, couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Ye Yang was overall commendable, and his talents were quite prominent, but there was one flaw: his mind was somewhat narrow, lacking a greater capacity to embrace others.

This was also the thing that concerned Master Qin and the other leaders the most, and it was the reason they had not yet handed over Qingyun Palace to Ye Yang.

Otherwise, the three of them would have already retired, dedicated themselves to cultivating, gathered strength, and waited for the day to return to the higher realm.

Upon hearing this, Ren Fei’s expression froze and turned rather unsightly.

Seeing this, Ye Yang lightly smiled and felt a bit disdainful internally. He wondered why Gu Chen, a stranger, should come forward and desire to obtain the pinnacle divine power of the Heavenly Lord’s Legacy?

It should be known that that combined divine power was something he coveted greatly, yet he had only been able to grasp the initial two forms despite considerable effort.

At this moment, Long Yi, indignant, spoke out, "Since the gentleman’s origins are in doubt, why not just ask any cultivator from the upper realm to verify? That should be quite easy, right?"

After these words, the people in Qingyun Palace also slightly nodded; whether genuine or not, it was easy to discern.

However, Ye Yang expressed his disdain, "If I’m not mistaken, you are a demon from the Gemini Clan of the last era, right? Back then, the Gemini Clan was among the top twenty races, and now, you’ve chosen to serve a cultivator younger than yourself instead of striving for progress?"

"If the predecessors of your Gemini Clan knew, even if they were still alive, they would be infuriated to death by such unworthy descendants."

As he spoke, Ye Yang shook his head, which immediately made Long Yi clench his fists, grinding his teeth as he glared at the other party.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Gu Chen pulled Long Yi back since he could tell that Long Yi was no match for Ye Yang.

And Ye Yang, nonetheless, was deliberately provoking them.

"What exactly do you want? Just say it outright," Gu Chen stood out and looked at Ye Yang.

Seeing Gu Chen step forward, Ye Yang gave a cold smile and said, "It’s simple. Your identities, of course, need to be verified, but even if they are genuine, obtaining the Heavenly Lord’s Legacy won’t be that easy. You have no objections to that, do you?"

Mater Mu and the others heard this and all looked at Ye Yang, not sure what he would say next.

Gu Chen remained calm and spoke, "State your purpose."

Ye Yang grinned and said, "It’s simple. If the identity verification passes and you wish to acquire the legacy, naturally, you’ll still need to be tested. The weak, even if they luckily learn it, would only disgrace the name of the Heavenly Lord!"

Instantly, Gu Chen understood Ye Yang’s intention, his eyebrows raised, he said, "Do you wish to fight me?"
