Chapter 318: Chapter 17 Breakthrough at the Battlefront_2

Gu Nanfeng.

This was also why, for the past eight years, members of the old faction actually looked forward to the Young Master’s return.

Only Gu Nanfeng could contact the Tomb Guardian Master, and both the new and old factions wanted to know the prophecies the Tomb Guardian Master had regarding the future.

The Source Tower had an Astrologer who was proficient in astrology, providing many conveniences to Central Continent.

And if the Gu family could receive guidance from the Qingzhong Guardian... the future would undoubtedly be much smoother!

Faced with Fatty Luo’s question, Gu Nanfeng simply smiled slightly and did not respond.

And this response was clearly an affirmation... Fatty Luo found it even more incredible, staring intently at Gu Shen on stage, trying hard to discern something extraordinary about the youth who also bore the Gu surname.

...

...

Blazing Fire Vision enveloped Gu Shen’s eyes.

The world before him immediately changed.

Extraordinary Essence flowed chaotically in the air, every person’s breath seemed to exhale different colors, making the whole world look like it was pieced together by swirls of colors.

Even those "big shots" sitting below the stands were no exception.

In the Blazing Fire Vision, "Shen Li," who had transformed into a "strange man" covered layer by layer in iron clothes, Gu Shen could clearly see, the opponent had forged four layers of iron clothes, the Extraordinary Essence of the "Iron Eater," clinging onto Shen Li’s body like a human-shaped weapon.

Gu Shen slowly assumed his fighting stance.

He did not use the Truth Ruler, nor did he use the Time Stop Pointer... He only used that small wisp of Blazing Fire at his brow.

The sharp heartbeat, under the operation of the Jingzhe Breathing Technique, slowly returned to calm.

The Blazing Fire flickered.

Gu Shen closed his eyes.

With his eyes closed, he "saw" an even greater world.

He motioned with his hand, signaling Shen Li to attack as he wished.

And this action, in the eyes of others... was undoubtedly a provocation, a disdain!

Shen Li’s expression suddenly turned gloomy, his clothes instantly turned to iron, and the entire visage including his facial features surfaced with a layer of rust!

The not yet solidified Domain Embryo of the "Iron Eater" unfolded in an instant, layer upon layer enhancing him!

This was a fierce man already attempting to solidify his domain... not something Shen Li was reported to be capable of!

Indeed... the truly powerful Transcendents always turned out stronger than the trial levels of the deep water area.

On the eerily silent battleground, suddenly the iron wind surged, an iron figure began to run, breaking through tens of meters in an instant, the hot iron wind burning like fire.

With his eyes closed, Gu Shen saw every detail of Shen Li’s "Iron Running," his expression serene.

This time, he did not dodge but threw a punch!

This was to... confront the punch!

A booming sonic boom!

Inside the Taoist School, countless winds exploded, and at the moment the two collided, floor tiles shattered, stones flew, boiling firewind, and iron mist spread, obscuring the view momentarily.

A collective cry of surprise rang out!

At this moment, one of the "big shots" sitting in the Taoist School acted.

It was a young man wearing a large prison robe, built like a mountain, unmoving and majestic, who merely raised his hand and lightly snapped his fingers.

The dust and smoke on stage were instantly wiped away.

Gu Nanfeng, who had been ready to act, retracted Lan Qie, narrowing his eyes, gazing at the Transcendent who had intervened.

He felt an extraordinarily strong Extraordinary Aura.

"Fatty... who is this?"

"This is the designated candidate for the next Grand Judge of the prison, Bai Chen."

Fatty Luo’s forehead beaded with sweat as he whispered, "I didn’t expect... for him to come to the Taoist School. Bai Chen isn’t the type to join in the bustle... Logically, even if he cared about this duel, he shouldn’t have come in person."

"A person from the Bai Family?" Gu Nanfeng raised an eyebrow.

"Yes... and a very strange, very strange person," Fatty Luo muttered softly, as if remembering something, he mused, "Thinking about it, it’s reasonable for him to come to the Taoist School..."

Fatty Luo had only gotten halfway through his thought when his heart suddenly trembled.

A vague gaze cast from the distant crowd over.

Bai Chen looked over expressionlessly.

Was this guy’s Extraordinary Sensing so terrifying?

Therefore, Luo Yu quickly squeezed out a polite yet awkward smile, lowering his voice, "Young Master... let’s talk when we get back."

Gu Nanfeng, holding his wooden sword, nodded thoughtfully, sharing a fleeting glance with Bai Chen, who did not show any intention of responding, only glanced at Luo Yu as a warning, then averted his gaze.

...

...

The smoke and dust dispersed.

Two figures also emerged.

The two on the field, like frozen statutes, one clad in layers of iron armor, resembling a majestic sculpture cast in steel, held his punching pose motionless.

But this punch had not hit the enemy and had merely grazed the cheek slightly offsides.

On the other hand, there was Gu Shen.

Gu Shen, with his eyes closed, felt a fiery sting on his cheek, as if it were burning.

At the critical moment, he had dodged the "Iron Eater’s" punch but still endured some of the wind pressure.

However, he too had thrown a punch... which landed directly on Shen Li’s face!

Unfortunately, this punch did not inflict any physical damage to Shen Li.

Because this guy... was a pure iron man.

Striking him was truly striking iron!

Without using the Truth Ruler or Iron Throne, Gu Shen’s body techniques, combined with this "mortal body," meant he could strike Shen Li all day and night, and likely, this iron man would not feel any pain.
