Gu Chen broke the cells of the leaders of each force one by one and destroyed the shackles that bound them.
For a moment, all the masters in the heaven and human realm returned to the sea, regained their freedom, and had the urge to look up to the sky and roar!
"Overlord, why do you want to save us?"
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, why are you with Overlord?"
Everyone walked out of the cell and looked at Gu Chen and Jiang Bujuo beside him. In their excitement, they soon realized that something big had happened outside.
If this were not the case, how could the Qianlian Holy Sect cooperate with Heavenly Court?
What reason does the Overlord have to risk entering this place to save them?
"Fellow Taoists, please listen to my detailed explanation."
Jiang Buzhuo looked at his old friends and seriously informed them of the war taking place outside.
When they learned that the disciples of their respective sects were forced to fight for Huangfu Wuji and became enemies of the Five Clans Alliance, a group of saints became nervous.
"Overlord, you saved us just to end this war?"
After hearing this, everyone looked at Gu Chen, with various emotions such as shock and confusion in their eyes.
The amount of information they got from Jiang Buzhou's words was so great that they did not expect that the Overlord was only eighteen years old and had already become the newly promoted Emperor of Heaven, and even recruited all the four major alien races in the mainland into his service.
They had guessed that there might be war in the outside world, but they didn't expect that a war would break out across the entire continent!
"Yes, the major forces in Kyushu were coerced by Huangfu Wuji to become my enemy. This war is meaningless and will only cause more casualties."
"Please come with me to the battlefield and make an end with Huangfu Wuji!"
Gu Chen said seriously.
After hearing this, several Holy Masters became excited and eager to try.
Being plotted by Huangfu Wuji using despicable means and trapped in this hellish place for so long, they had long wanted to take revenge.
Now that they were rescued by Gu Chen, they should repay their kindness, not to mention that the other party also controlled a large army.
With the killing gods in heaven and a group of demon saints in Nanling, together with them, even if Huangfu Wuji possesses two great treasures, it is already possible to encircle and suppress him!
Therefore, without hesitation, all the Holy Lords and Supreme Elders agreed!
"Amitabha, if we don't deal with Huangfu Wuji, there will never be peace for all the people in the world. I have a kind heart and the benefactor is willing to risk entering the pagoda to rescue us to save the world from war. I should do my best."
Even the holy monk Puji, who had always kept aloof from the world, lost his usual kind-hearted look and his expression became angry and majestic.
Many people only know that monks are compassionate and do not kill living beings, but they do not know that Buddhism also has the lineage of Vajra Arhats, who take it as their duty to subjugate and eliminate demons!
At this moment, even the holy monk Pu Ji decided to take action. Huangfu Wuji had reached the point where the world was angry and people were resentful, and everyone was betraying their relatives.
Seeing that Gu Chen had successfully convinced a group of mainland's top powerhouses, he was secretly excited.
With the joining of this group of people, the war is no longer suspense!
"Fellow Taoists, Gu knew that Huangfu Wuji was in Qingzhou only when he entered the tower. I'm afraid he has reached the front line now. We need to set off as soon as possible."
Gu Chen reminded him that he was ready to return home. If he went back as early as possible, he could avoid more casualties.
"Fellow Taoist, please be patient. We have been stuck here for too long and need a moment of rest."
Everyone explained that they had all been locked in the Dantian by the Yuan-binding shackles before, resulting in extremely weak bodies for a long time.
The next trip to the battlefield will most likely be a life and death battle, and they must try their best to return to their original state.
Gu Chen also realized that he was a little anxious after hearing this. Everyone was trapped here for so long and needed time to recover.
He took out the elixir from his storage ring and distributed it to the leaders of various forces.
"Thank you very much."
Everyone gratefully accepted the elixir, then sat cross-legged and meditated, racing against time to recover.
Gu Chen and Jiang Buzhuo were free for a while. If they had known that there was no danger on the seventeenth floor, they should have gone up directly.
Gu Chen looked at the stairs leading to the last floor, and what Ye Qingshuang and Yang Zhen had said before came to mind.
Even though he was the leader of various forces, he was only imprisoned on the seventeenth floor. However, the people brought by Emperor Fu Wuji a few days ago were actually imprisoned on the eighteenth floor by him in a serious manner.
Who is that person? Why is he treated like this?
Gu Chen became very curious. Waiting here was just a waste of time, so he might as well go upstairs to find out.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, I'll go with you. Be careful that there are restrictions upstairs."
When Jiang Buhuo saw Gu Chen going upstairs, he couldn't help but wonder.
He was also very curious about who was imprisoned on the eighteenth floor. Who else in the whole world was more valued by Huangfu Wuji than the leaders of various forces and needed to be imprisoned at the highest point of the Hades Tower?
The two of them walked towards the stairs. When they passed by Luo Haicheng, he opened his eyes and gave a kind reminder. "The people upstairs have some weird tempers. You should be careful."
Gu Chen nodded, having a good impression of Luo Haicheng.
If it weren't for this person, they would never have been able to find the location of the Underworld Tower. He gave his mother the Nanhua Pearl unintentionally, but it saved themselves and changed the direction of the entire war.
The two of them stepped forward and backward into the eighteenth floor. Their expressions changed drastically as their eyes glanced at each other.
On both sides of this floor, there were standing an incarnation of the god of the underworld with nine heads and eighteen arms. They were exactly the same as those encountered on the sixteenth floor before. The number was astonishing.
The previous incarnation had caused them a lot of suffering, and they had to use the King's Chongbao to take it away. How could they fight against so many of them now?
Gu Chen was walking on thin ice and was about to take action, but soon noticed something unusual.
"No! It's just a statue!"
When he came back to his senses, he was shocked to realize that they were just a bunch of statues.
The statues here were lifelike and had an extremely cold aura about them, which caused him to misunderstand them.
"It's okay, it's okay."
Jiang Buzhuo breathed a sigh of relief. At a glance, there were at least hundreds of Hades statues on this floor. If each one had the strength of the monster he encountered earlier, it would definitely be a disaster.
The two of them walked carefully through the statues, and Jiang Buzhuo couldn't help but study them.
"What kind of material is this statue made of? It looks so realistic."
Gu Chen nodded, his expression serious.
These statues are much more peculiar than those in the major branches of Hades Palace. The difference is like the difference between real paintings and random scribblings of children.
Even if the statue here was motionless, Gu Chen felt a vague pressure lingering around him.
It seemed as if the statues might wake up in the next moment.
“The workmanship of these statues is extraordinary!”
Jiang Buzhuo looked at a group of statues and became addicted to them without realizing it. He ventured to touch them with his hands.
"Master Jiang!"
Gu Chen's face changed slightly. The situation here was unknown. Jiang Buzhuo should not have done such a risky thing. It was not like his style.
