Chapter 1391: Chapter 298 Gu Chen’s Desperate Situation_2

"What is this place?" Ghostly Son looked at the mountain ranges before him, feeling nothing remarkable, a common sight deep within the holy realm.

The towering figure of Yuan Gu, with his black hair flowing, gazed coldly at the mountain range and said, "According to intelligence, this place contains a universe within a universe, harboring a minor thousand-world that may hold tremendous opportunities and fortune."

"Oh? Is that true?" Upon hearing this, Ghostly Son immediately became interested.

Having been defeated by Gu Chen, he had reflected deeply on his pain and was prepared to enhance himself at all costs; naturally, he would be extremely concerned about any opportunity for evolution.

Moreover, given Gu Chen’s extraordinary background, a place that he used for his breakthrough into the heavenly domain would certainly be exceptional; otherwise, his success would have been impossible.

"A hidden universe?" Ghostly Son said darkly, "I look forward to the moment he falls from heaven to hell, to see just how desperate he will be."

It was evident that he harbored extreme hatred toward Gu Chen, otherwise, he wouldn’t speak like this.

However, just as they were about to enter, a flash of light occurred, and many Great Powers from Qingyun Palace appeared.

In the Palace of Youming, all Great Powers wearing black, the leading three old men frowned upon seeing Master Qin, Mater Mu, and Master Gong.

"Have we been exposed? It doesn’t matter." Yuan Gu’s eyes flickered.

"Stop right there!" Master Gong shouted, his powerful cultivation shaking heaven and earth, causing many Great Powers from Yuan Gu and Ghostly Son’s side to tremble.

"Make way!"

At that moment, a figure from the front ranks of the Palace of Youming, a demi-giant, stepped forward to confront Master Gong.

"Don’t be deceived by Ghostly Son, he has already betrayed you and sided with the Holy Gate!" Mater Mu appeared, standing alongside Master Gong, and shouted at the crowd from Palace of Youming.

"Nonsense!" Ghostly Son walked forward, retorting coldly, "I sided with the Holy Gate? It was clearly Gu Chen who sided with them, secretly using the demon to devour living beings for cultivation. I saw it, and now that the secret is exposed, it’s too late for him to hide!"

"Indeed, you can really twist right and wrong!" Master Gong’s anger peaked at his natural lying.

"And you still claim to be the heir of Ghostly Lord; you have completely disgraced him!" Mater Mu also rebuked.

"How dare you!"

These words were not pleasing to the Palace of Youming’s master, as the status of Ghostly Lord was supremely revered among them, and not subject to any slander.

"Qi Ming, do not be foolish, be careful not to make a grave mistake!" fearing the worsening situation, Master Qin also stepped forward.

"Qin Yang, how I, Qi Ming, conduct myself is not your concern, let that youngster come out and face us!" the master of the Palace of Youming coldly declared.

At this moment, a demi-giant, also the vice-master of Palace of Youming, stepped forward and said, "Regardless of whether he colluded with the Holy Gate, by daring to provoke Ghostly Son, he stands against us in Palace of Youming!"

Clearly, just as Master Qin once told Gu Chen, Ghostly Son, as the heir of Ghostly Lord, had the deep trust of the Palace of Youming.

He fabricated his feud with Gu Chen, shifting all blame onto Gu Chen; without hesitation, the Palace of Youming chose to strike.

However, rather than feeling touched by this, Ghostly Son secretly scorned the stupidity of the Palace of Youming.

Yuan Gu, the holy son of Holy Gate, stood silently at the back, watching the drama unfold, a cold smile playing on his lips.

Then, with a glance, a disciple of the Holy Gate, understanding his hint, stepped forward to provoke a Great Power from Qingyun Palace.

At the same time, Yuan Gu, standing at the back, had a deep, dark gleam that briefly passed through his pupils.

In an instant, the Qingyun Palace Great Power was influenced, a trace of blackness spreading through his eyes, and his emotions suddenly became uncontrollable, starting a fierce battle with that Great Power from the Holy Gate.

"Hmph, kill!"

Seeing that both sides had started fighting, Ghostly Son coldly gave the command, and immediately, the Great Powers from Palace of Youming launched an attack, clashing violently with the people from Qingyun Palace.

Ren Fei, Long Yi, and those from Dongba engaged in a fierce battle with the people from the Palace of Youming.

The trio’s faces grew tense, sensing something ominous, knowing well that their opponents had come for Gu Chen.

Currently, Gu Chen was at the brink of a breakthrough, and any slight disturbance could be fatal.

"Kill!"

The Great Powers of the Holy Gate also struck. Originally, the strength between the Palace of Youming and Qingyun Palace was relatively balanced, but now, with the addition of the Holy Gate, the scales of victory immediately began to tip.

"Charge in for me!"

Ghostly Son’s words were cold, his gaze ruthless as he took the lead. No one beneath the Transcendent Ultimate realm in Qingyun Palace could match him.

As they pressed deeper, Master Qin’s trio grew increasingly solemn. Seeing this, the sneers in Ghostly Son and Ghostly Lord’s eyes intensified.

"Gu Chen, your end has come!" Ghostly Son roared, his voice thundering through the earth, aiming to disrupt Gu Chen’s critical breakthrough with a particularly sinister intention.

Soon, they charged deeper into the mountains, and though the people of Qingyun Palace could hardly resist, fortunately, there were no casualties.

There, a formation lay. Seeing this, both Ghostly Son and Ghostly Lord’s eyes lit up.

"This is the place!"

"Gu Chen, I want to see how you will break out of this dire situation today!"

Ghostly Son roared, brandishing a primordial treasure in attack, causing the formation to tremble violently.

"Stop him!" shouted Master Qin, Mater Mu, and Master Gong in unison.

"Not good!"

Long Yi, Ren Fei, and the others from Dongba also gave their all, rushing towards the site.

"Today, no one can save him!" Ghostly Son coldly shouted, seeing the formation’s robustness, he directly utilized the Nine Netherworld Fires, causing a massive surge of dark green flames to emerge, instantly preventing the Qingyun Palace’s Great Powers from approaching.

Ghostly Lord stood at the very back, his eyes indifferent, simply waiting for the formation to shatter, Gu Chen’s figure to appear, and then to directly kill him.

"Choosing to break through to the Sky Realm at such a time and being found, you’re simply unlucky," Ghostly Lord muttered as he turned his eyes. His towering figure exerted a strong oppressive force, his invisible authority daunting, making the Great Powers of Qingyun Palace hesitant to approach.

Boom!

Finally, after hundreds of attacks, Ghostly Son managed to breach the formation.

Just as his eyes turned vicious, preparing to deal the deadly blow to Gu Chen, he found that he had lunged at empty air.

After the formation was broken, there was nothing inside.

"Huh?!"

This scene not only stunned Ghostly Son but also all the others, including Ren Fei and Long Yi.

"What’s going on?"

Ghostly Lord was also stunned initially, not expecting to encounter such a scenario.

Then, his gaze shifted toward the three leaders of Qingyun Palace, Master Qin, Mater Mu, and Master Gong. Their faces calm, gone was any trace of their previous panic.

"Have we been deceived?!"

At this moment, the same thought emerged in both Ghostly Lord and Ghostly Son’s minds, causing a shudder in their hearts!
