Zuo Chunqiu's intuition was a bit scary. If what happened was true, then the person behind it must be playing a big game.
But among the hundreds of counties, which Dao Lord has the ability to influence the destiny list?
What's the point of him doing this?
Reason told Gu Chen that this was impossible, but it still left a thorn in his heart.
"No matter what, be careful of the ship that sails for ten thousand years, and pay more attention to yourself."
Zuo Chunqiu revealed this topic. Although he was from the Tiandao Sect, he didn't figure anything out on this matter. He just instinctively felt something fishy.
Gu Chen nodded, and the two of them understood each other tacitly, and the topic was led to other places, and they talked loudly.
Everyone chatted happily along the way until they arrived at the Xingqiao City of Tianmu Daojun.
This city was originally a huge star, but it was excavated by Taoist Lord Tianmu with his great supernatural power. The interior gradually became hollow and extended in all directions, turning it into a real starry sky city.
The surface of Star Aperture City is spherical, with countless entrances leading to the interior. Each entrance also emits crimson light, much like the eyes of Taoist Tianmu.
Recently, due to the ceremony of hundreds of counties, the arrival of spaceships from various counties can often be seen at many entrances of Xingqiao City, which is a spectacle.
Bajun's spaceship flew into Xingqiao City smoothly. When Gu Chen stepped off the spacecraft, Tianmu Daojun had already arrived.
This Dao Lord has the first-class vision in the Chaos Sea, so he naturally knows when Gu Chen will arrive.
Gu Chen even suspected that as long as he entered Tianyan County, no one's every move would be able to escape the surveillance of Tianmu Daojun.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, you are well."
Lord Tianmu greeted Gu Chen cordially.
"Tianmu Dao is friendly, I wonder if all the other Dao Lords have arrived?"
Gu Chen and Tianmu Daojun exchanged pleasantries, and they walked into Xingqiao City together.
During this period, the monks who participated in the selection were taken away by Tianmu Taojun's people, and they had specially arranged residences.
"Most of the Dao Lords have already arrived, and many people have asked me whether Daoist Fellow Gu is here."
Tianmu Daojun smiled and replied, as the lord of the hegemony in the sky, Gu Chen's popularity has almost caught up with Qin Daojun and Su Daojun.
This was something that had rarely been seen in many years, and the speed of his rise was astonishing to him.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, Su has been waiting for you for a long time."
While the two were talking, a fair and enchanting face appeared behind the pillar in front of them.
"Fellow Daoist Su."
Gu Chen said hello, but he didn't expect that Su Daojun would wait for him here.
"I still have many things to be busy with. Since Fellow Daoist Su has something to do with Fellow Daoist Gu, I will leave first."
Tianmu Daojun originally wanted to chat with Gu Chen, but when he saw Su Daojun coming to the door, he casually found an excuse to leave.
As soon as he left, Su Daojun walked to Gu Chen with a smile, looking familiar.
"Fellow Taoist Gu, do you think why Taoist Tianmu left in such a hurry?"
"As a host, it's normal to be busy." Gu Chen replied casually.
"That would be wrong."
Su Daojun shook his head and said meaningfully, "He is avoiding suspicion."
"Avoid suspicion?" Gu Chen thought thoughtfully.
"Last time in Jian County, you and I were in the same spirit, which severely defeated Qin Daojun's spirit. Now all the Daojuns think that we are on the same team."
"If Taoist Fellow Tianmu gets too close to us at this time, it will easily arouse unnecessary suspicion. After all, he has always been neutral among the Hundred Counties, and his ability is also very special. It is particularly important among the Hundred Counties.
Any position is allowed to exist."
Gu Chen understood and smiled and moved farther away from Su Daojun.
"What does this mean, fellow Daoist Gu?" Su Daojun was stunned.
"Although I was on the same side as fellow Daoist Su in Jian County last time, I had no intention of getting involved in the fight between you and Daojun Qin."
The dispute between Qin and Su has been going on for a long time, and although Gu Chen couldn't stand Qin Daojun, he didn't want to be used as a weapon.
All Daojun thought that he and Su Daojun were in the same group, which was not good.
"Gu Daoyou is really realistic." Su Daojun couldn't help but look sad.
"I wonder what Su Daojun wants from me?" Gu Chen made up his mind. If Su Daojun was going to join forces with him to deal with Qin Daojun together, then it would be better for him to stay away from him.
The vicious fight between the Taoists does not make much sense. The only people who suffer are the people under their respective banners.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Gu, I'm not here to form an alliance with you!"
Su Daojun finally understood Gu Chen's behavior and gave up his original intention of recruiting.
However, even if you can't recruit him, it's still good to sell him a favor, but don't let him become your enemy.
"Fellow Daoist Gu has never experienced the grand occasion of the opening of the Boundary Sea. He must not understand many things, right?"
Su Daojun's change of subject immediately aroused Gu Chen's interest, and his face straightened.
"Come and sit at my place."
Seeing Gu Chen's appearance, Su Daojun knew that the favor could be sold, and smiled.
So Gu Chen followed Su Daojun to his residence.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, the final selection of the Chaos Spirits List will not take long, only two days. Then we will go to the boundary sea together to meet the messenger from the upper realm. I wonder what you are thinking?"
Su Daojun personally poured tea for Gu Chen.
"This is a very precious opportunity for all the monks participating in the battle of the lists. But as the makers of the rules, you and I are just bystanders. What can we think?" Gu Chen replied casually.
"Do you, fellow Taoist Gu, really not understand, or are you just pretending to be confused?" Su Daojun looked at Gu Chen with a smile.
"What does Fellow Daoist Su mean?" Gu Chen frowned.
"That's right, as Dao Lords, we are not participants. We seem to be just bystanders. However, the messengers from the upper realm don't care about this."
"For them, as long as they have talent, they will accept it."
"As the youngest Dao Lord, Gu Daoyou can make Qin Daojun so angry at such a young age but can do nothing about it. Such a talent will definitely be valued by the messenger from the upper realm. At that time, I wonder how Gu Daoyou will choose?"
Su Daojun glanced at Gu Chen, Gu Chen's choice may be related to the future pattern of the Chaos Sea.
There is no doubt that if Gu Chen stays in the Sea of Chaos, the next era will definitely belong to him, and Qin Daojun's light will eventually be completely dimmed.
Gu Chen was silent for a moment, Wuming had asked similar questions before.
Hongmeng Taoist Realm, the highest holy land of cultivation, is naturally yearned for by everyone, but the only thing he cares about now is the way home.
This was not a topic that could be discussed with others. Gu Chen avoided talking about it and asked instead, "With Su's talent and strength, when the world sea opened in the past, there was hope for entering Hongmeng Dao Realm, right? Why are you still here?"
"Fellow Daoist Gu, don't you think it's easy for Taoist Lords to enter the Taoist world?" Su Daojun had a strange look on his face.
"Those who can become Taoist monarchs are standing at the pinnacle of thousands of races. Don't they still meet the requirements of messengers from the upper realm?" Gu Chen said in surprise.
