Chapter 1378: Chapter 292: Solar Scripture Level 7

In the Divine Garden, the expanse was extraordinary, with densely packed array patterns filling the void. A single misstep could lead to bloodshed for even the most formidable figures, and they would meet their demise in an instant.

At this moment, Gu Chen had heightened his Tianyan Tong to the third rank. His eyes glowed resplendently, with mysterious runes contained within, turning them into two dazzling suns that emitted an intensely terrifying aura, almost suffocating to behold and difficult to look at directly.

It seemed as if, within Gu Chen’s pupils, two divine beings of awe were being nurtured!

With a wave of his hand, Gu Chen immediately captured the faint trace of demonic energy into the Yu Ding, suppressing it.

Not long after, several figures appeared in the distance, drawn by the recent battle’s fluctuations.

"Zhu Cheng?" Dongba, having recovered, furrowed his brows as he saw a young man dressed in a red robe with a divine furnace emblem on his chest.

He was the Saint Child of the Fire Sect, one of the twelve Great Undying Dao Clans of the upper realm.

Rumor had it that he was favored by the sect’s Dao Weapon, the Fire God Furnace, was bestowed secret techniques, had comprehended the Nine Li Mysterious Fire, and was immensely powerful. Among the young prodigies of the upper realm, he ranked in the top ten.

Moreover, after Gu Chen had slain Jin Xuan, he and Zong Xiu had even joined forces to pursue him.

Seeing Gu Chen here, Zhu Cheng was clearly surprised. Beside him stood several individuals with strong auras from the Peng Clan—one of the core imperial families of the Saint Realm.

To be honest, Gu Chen didn’t have any favorable impression of the clan, so he stood there with a cold face.

The Peng Clan was domineering and arrogantly self-important, prideful to the extreme—be it the Golden Roc Clan of the upper realm or the imperial Peng Clan of the Saint Realm.

At this moment, they glanced at the corpses lying on the ground, their eyes shifting slightly before turning towards Gu Chen, saying, "Hand over your treasures, and we will let you leave safely."

In particular, one of the Great Powers from the Peng Clan kept looking at the Breaking Array Talisman in Gu Chen’s hand. It was a wondrous thing. If they obtained it, they could traverse even further into the Divine Garden.

Now, after the slaughter of the people from the Holy Sect, Gu Chen had two Breaking Array Talismans. If he encountered someone he knew, he wouldn’t mind lending one out, but to the likes of the Peng Clan—forget it.

"Do you want to die?" Gu Chen, having no goodwill towards the Peng Clan, confronted them directly without holding back.

"How insolent!"

The expression of the Peng Clan Great Power sank, his aura surging, and a fierce wind erupted around them.

There were five in their party, and except for Zhu Cheng, they all had reached the later stages of the Feathered Transformation Realm, their strengths formidable indeed.

As for the Great Circle of the Feathered Transformation Realm or even half-step giants, they were strategic forces within the core territories of the Saint Realm, only appearing at the most critical moments as the realm edged towards destruction.

Even with many strong individuals among the Peng Clan, venturing into the Divine Garden was extremely perilous, and they would not risk sending their top figures at the Great Circle of the Feathered Transformation Realm.

A death here would be a loss too great to bear.

"Gu Chen, don’t be so brazen!" At that moment, Zhu Cheng stepped forward, actually wanting to confront Gu Chen head-on.

The Fire Sect, as a Great Undying Dao Clan of the upper realm, was naturally immensely powerful. The Saint Realm was on the brink of decay, so Zhu Cheng had easily formed an alliance with the Peng Clan.

Of course, this was mainly because Gu Chen had wiped out the members of the Golden Roc Clan, a detail Zhu Cheng had shared with the Peng Clan.

Hence, the Peng Clan’s impression of Gu Chen was extremely unfavorable, as could be seen from their interactions in Sword King City.

"You killed my brother. Today, I shall avenge him!" Zhu Cheng declared.

They had entered the Divine Garden after the trip to the Immortal Spirit Den, like Dongba, unaware of the Sword Monarch Palace’s fall and the rumors of Gu Chen’s display of divine might.

Hence, Zhu Cheng, who had grown significantly stronger and reached the mid-stage of the Feathered Transformation Realm, behaved this way upon encountering Gu Chen.

Otherwise, if he had known the details of the Sword Monarch Palace’s fall, even with ten times the courage, he would never dare to act so foolishly.

Hearing this, Dongba immediately stood up and said, "Zhu Cheng, I will fight you!"

"Dongba, have you actually sided with him?" Zhu Cheng frowned at the sight.

"So be it. Inside the Divine Garden, no word can spread, and with the Saint Realm’s core territories being so peculiar, it’s exceedingly difficult for the strongest outsiders to monitor the situation at all times. Killing him is no big deal," Zhu Cheng thought to himself, harboring murderous intentions towards Dongba.

The Golden Giants, as one of the top ten races of the upper realm, naturally had extraordinary bloodlines. Killing Dongba and using his essence blood for alchemy was, in Zhu Cheng’s opinion, a fine choice.

"Since you seek death, I shall grant your wish!" Zhu Cheng coldly shouted, without hesitation, unleashing a palm strike that sent a scorching imprint towards Dongba, radiating a fearsome heat that changed his complexion.

Bang!

At that moment, Gu Chen, standing in his place, swept his sleeve, and a fierce wind dispersed Zhu Cheng’s palm strike.

Gu Chen could see that Dongba was no match for Zhu Cheng and there was no need for him to interfere.

Moreover, he was eager to find out who the owner of the demonic energy imprint was, not interested in wasting time with Zhu Cheng.

Thus, Gu Chen stepped forward, his gaze cold as he surveyed Zhu Cheng and the rest, bluntly stating, "Come at me, all of you."
