The first thousand two hundred and thirty-six chapters lifelong enemy
Da. Da. Da.
Gu Chen walked very slowly and calmly passed through the huge outer circle.
A huge skull stood towering above him, and the surroundings gave him a vaguely familiar feeling.
His expression was very calm, and the hustle and bustle of the Great Leiyin Temple behind him was quickly moving away, as if the place where he was standing now was isolated from the world.
His footsteps finally stopped, and when a pair of deep black eyes looked forward, a strong light suddenly burst out!
At this moment, in front of him, the man in a bamboo hat, or Taoist Master Jingling, was standing there leisurely, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.
To Gu Chen's surprise, in addition to the man in the hat, Black Dog and Qiu Mengyi were also there.
The two of them stayed quietly in the corner, seemingly not intending to interfere with what happened next. The expression on Qiu Mengyi's face was still a bit complicated.
"Jie Jie, Gu Chen, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
The man in the bamboo hat looked at Gu Chen, his eyes filled with greed as if he were looking at a treasure, just like before.
"Why?"
Gu Chen ignored the man in the hat and looked at the black dog in the corner.
The black dog was once his friend, and it had the same deep hatred as the man in the hat. Gu Chen couldn't believe that it would surrender to him.
He originally thought that the black dog was controlled by the man in the hat, just like Elder Nangong was controlled back then.
However, when he saw the black dog, he was sure that its eyes were clear and it was definitely not controlled by anyone.
Not only Black Dog, but also Qiu Mengyi stood aside calmly, which made him feel even more wrong.
Although he didn't know what Qiu Mengyi was planning, the hostility she showed towards the man in the hat couldn't be fake.
"Yeah, yeah, Gu Chen, you are so brave, when did you dare to ignore me?"
The man in the hat said dissatisfied.
Gu Chen then turned his attention to the man in the bamboo hat, his expression was cold, and he did not hide his disgust.
Xingjun's attack on the Ninth Realm was about to begin. At this time, he should have been in seclusion to make a breakthrough, but because the ghost of the man in the hat was still around and causing trouble, he had no choice but to make this trip.
He had been entangled with the man in the hat too many times in his life. Sometimes this person was as cunning as a fox, and sometimes he seemed like a madman, which really pushed his endurance to the limit.
"It was a great regret of my life that I couldn't kill you with my own hands back then. Now that you are back from the dead, let's put this regret to rest today!"
Gu Chen strode out with terrifying domineering energy escaping from his body, like a violent storm, flooding the entire world!
The man in the bamboo hat was surrounded by this terrifying power, like a boat that could capsize at any time, but his expression was unusually calm.
"You have indeed grown into an extremely delicious fruit."
The man in the hat sighed with emotion, licked his tongue, and the scene when he first met Gu Chen flashed through his mind.
He was just a young boy at that time, and even if he was faced with just a fragment of his own soul, he could only run away hastily.
But now that he has grown up and become the famous Emperor of Heaven in the Ninth Realm, he not only dares to challenge him face to face, but his aura is as if he wants to swallow people up.
The only thing that remains unchanged is probably his stubbornness, right?
The man in the hat thought about it. Over the past ten years, from the Kunlun Continent to the Fairy Continent, from the Galaxy Star Region to here, the only thing that remained unchanged about this guy was probably his unwillingness to admit defeat.
Many people have talents. Taoist Master Jingling has seen countless geniuses in his life, and there are many who are stronger than Gu Chen at the beginning.
But no one has ever been able to reach where he is now.
This is no longer something that can be explained by luck or talent. The other person has a spirit that no one else has.
The man in the hat was in a trance, as if he saw some of his own qualities in this young man.
If it were him, it would be possible for him to accomplish what he couldn't do and knock the guy who thought he was the master of the world down from the altar, right?
"Man in the hat, I know what you are thinking, but you will never realize your wish today."
Gu Chen didn't notice the different demeanor of the man in the bamboo hat hiding under the bamboo hat, and spoke coldly.
"Oh, do you know my wish?" The man in the hat came back to his senses and showed a teasing expression.
"What kind of idea can a person like you have? He just wants to regain his previous strength and continue to make trouble in the Ninth Realm, right?"
Gu Chen's eyes were filled with chills.
"Jie Jie, you are quite smart, but can you guess what I am going to do?" The man in the hat did not refute, but blinked.
"I don't know, but if you want to regain your strength, it must have something to do with me, right?"
Gu Chen's expression was gloomy, and his consciousness extended widely while talking to the man in the hat.
He was searching for the demon statue of the left path that Wu Lingxian mentioned.
Although the man in the bamboo hat in front of him pretends to be powerful, with his current vision, he can tell at a glance that he is strong on the outside and weak on the inside, and will definitely not be his opponent.
Let alone him, even Black Dog and Qiu Mengyi combined could not be his opponent with the fusion of immortal body and overlord body.
In this way, the only bargaining chip that the man in the hat can rely on is the rumored leftist demon statue. Only that thing can pose a threat to him!
"Jie Jie Jie, why do I need you if I want to regain my strength? Gu Chen, do you think too highly of yourself?"
The man in the bamboo hat laughed strangely.
Gu Chen pressed his forehead and gritted his teeth. "You have done something to me, right? I don't know when and how you did it, but I think this is the key to your recovery."
After arriving at this place, the pain in Gu Chen's head became more and more intense. Coupled with the nightmares he had had many times before, he was sure that the man in the hat had tampered with his body.
He didn't know when the other party did it, but this was the only way to explain the whole thing!
"Have you even thought of this? Since you have thought of it, why did you come to die? Well, is it hypocritical for the sake of the so-called common people in the world, or is it just to take revenge on me?"
The man in the bamboo hat looked at Gu Chen strangely.
"I just think that if a guy like you dies, he should die forever. Since you are not dead yet, I have an obligation to send you to hell."
"It doesn't matter what tricks you did, because I will definitely kill you today!"
The man in the hat looked at Gu Chen's confident look, with admiration deep in his eyes.
"That's it. No matter what tricks I do, you are confident that you can defeat it. I hope you can always maintain this confidence."
The man in the hat sounded a little strange, and Gu Chen frowned slightly.
After a simple exchange, he always felt that something was not right about the man in the hat today.
"Jie Jie Jie, Gu Chen, since you have guessed my intention, I have nothing to hide! Even if you die today, I should let you die clearly!"
The voice of the man in the bamboo hat suddenly became louder, and he raised his hands as if casting a spell, his face full of contempt and disdain.
