Deep in the starry sky, an ancient square building stands. It is supported by countless yellow Lingyun pillars. The walls are mottled, as if they have growth rings.
There are densely packed steps in front of the building. The steps are always shining with brilliance and are almost translucent, as if connecting two different time and space.
Under the steps is the vast starry sky.
Above the steps, inside the square building, is another world.
The two sides are clearly distinct and will last forever.
call out!
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light cut through the starry sky, flew over the dense steps, and finally inserted itself upside down in front of the palace, turning into a mighty golden sword!
Not long after, Gu Chen, who was chasing the Sky-plundering Sword, also arrived here.
"Is this the secret place of the Overlord clan?"
Ryoma looked at the building in front of him curiously, and his whole body tensed subconsciously.
Arriving here, the laws of heaven and earth have been suppressed to an extremely serious level, and all that can be felt is a domineering and exclusive aura.
This breath is so domineering, it seems that even if a person can't breathe, he must have permission from it.
"You guys wait for me here, I'll go up by myself."
Gu Chen looked at the secret place ahead and said to Bai Yuan and Long Ma.
This place excludes anyone who is not from the Overlord Clan. Even with the cultivation of White Ape and Ryoma, they may encounter danger if they continue walking.
The two beasts nodded, and Gu Chen climbed up the steps alone.
With each step up the stairs, the domineering pressure emanating from the palace increases.
After Gu Chen walked hundreds of stairs, the blood in his body boiled uncontrollably, and the golden light overflowed, turning him into a golden man.
After walking all the steps, the Sky-Striking Knife was at his feet. Gu Chen pulled it out with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
This sword can't wait to return here, which shows the significance of this place to the Overlord clan.
There is the Gu Clan's ancestral land on the Canghuang Ancient Star, but later Gu Chen found out that the ancestral land was just a descendant of the Ba Clan who fled to Canghuang Ancient Star and died there.
Did the ancient hegemonic descendant come from this place?
With full curiosity in his heart, Gu Chen walked into the palace.
There are spectacular Ling Yun Pillars one after another in this palace. People walking inside them are as small as ants.
The pillars are carved with all kinds of ancient and exotic species, each one is lifelike, as if they are rushing towards you, which makes people tremble with fear.
Buzz——
The sky-skimming knife in Gu Chen's hand trembled slightly, pointing in a certain direction.
This place was so big that Gu Chen didn't know where to go, so he simply followed the instructions of the Sky-Striking Sword.
Not long after, a shrine was vaguely visible in front of him. Gu Chen suddenly stopped and his pupils narrowed.
There seems to be a person standing there!
Gu Chen was wary and approached slowly. After a while, he could clearly see the scene around the shrine.
The shrine is huge, comparable to a three-story attic. There is a plaque hanging on the gatehouse with only four words on it: Domination and supremacy.
These four-character iron hooks and silver strokes are so powerful that they hit each other head-on, making people's souls tremble involuntarily.
Unfortunately, the plaque itself was rusty and looked older than the building. There were even cracks on the surface, causing all the beauty to be lost.
It is strange enough that such a broken plaque is placed in this majestic palace, but underneath the plaque, there is actually a golden coffin.
The coffin was enshrined in the shrine and obviously had special significance. However, Gu Chen's attention was attracted by a figure in front of the coffin.
He could only see his back. The man had white hair and stood there without any breath leaking from his body, like a ghost.
"Who is this?"
Gu Chen's eyes flickered. When his father gave him the star map, he didn't mention that there was someone here in the secret place of the Overlord clan. Moreover, this person gave him the impression of a ghost. Even his spiritual sense could not detect anything unusual, which made him wary.
He slowly came five feet away from the other party, but the other party didn't seem to notice him and just looked at the golden coffin in front of him.
Gu Chen also saw the scene inside the coffin. There was a man's body placed in the coffin. His face was sharp and angular, and he looked like he was in his prime.
It's a pity that his heart was empty. The whole heart was missing, and the nearby flesh and blood withered.
"I wish you a wise life, but in the end there is nowhere to place the coffin. I don't know when I will be able to return to my hometown?"
The white-haired man suddenly spoke, looking at the corpse in the coffin with complicated eyes.
Only then did Gu Chen confirm that the other party was not a ghost, and he tightened his grip on the Sky-Striking Sword in his hand.
This was the secret place of the Overlords isolated from the world. When such a person suddenly appeared, he first regarded him as an enemy.
The white-haired man didn't seem to notice Gu Chen behind him, or rather didn't care, and stood silently in front of the coffin for a long time.
Gu Chen stood there frozen, wondering whether to take action.
He couldn't figure this person out at all. After thinking for a long time, he finally made no move.
After a long time, the white-haired man raised his head and looked at the plaque that read "Domineering and Dominant", his eyes showing sadness.
"It's a pity that the overlords have been reduced to such a situation. Now, what meaning does this plaque that used to symbolize glory still have?"
He flicked his finger, and the plaque shattered, broke into two pieces, and fell to the ground!
Gu Chen's pupils instantly shrank like needles, and a surge of anger from deep within his blood flowed out of nowhere.
Whoosh!
The white-haired man seemed to sense something and suddenly looked back at Gu Chen.
At one glance, Gu Chen, who had just been filled with anger, felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!
That glance seemed to represent the mighty power of God, shattering the pride and anger in Gu Chen's heart, leaving only the fear that had nowhere to put it!
Gu Chen's heart stirred up a storm, and he tried to raise the knife, but found that he couldn't move!
"What can a junior like this do if we are left alone?"
The white-haired man murmured, his expression full of disappointment, and he passed by Gu Chen.
After he had left for a long time, Gu Chen regained his ability to move and was surprised to find himself breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Who the hell is that guy?"
Gu Chen's face was extremely ugly. Considering his current state, someone could calm him down with just one look. This was something he could not imagine at all.
He gritted his teeth and chased the opponent in the direction he left unwillingly.
As soon as he left the palace, he saw Bai Yuan and Ryoma climbing up the steps.
"The suppression of the laws of heaven and earth is gone."
"Have you ever seen a white-haired man come out?"
As soon as they met, Gu Chen and Long Ma said almost at the same time.
After hearing what Long Ma said, Gu Chen sensed carefully and found that the thousands of suppressed laws in the world suddenly became active again.
It is for this reason that White Ape and Ryoma dare to enter here.
"What white-haired man?"
Long Ma asked curiously, not understanding what Gu Chen was talking about, and Bai Yuan was also confused.
Gu Chen was silent for a moment. It seemed that neither Long Ma nor Bai Yuan saw the man leave.
"Is it a hallucination?"
Gu Chen murmured in his heart, he couldn't believe that someone could suppress him with just one glance, and he was more willing to believe that what he saw and heard before was just an illusion.
