Ordinary people did not know where Huangfu Wuji was, and in some places there were even rumors that he had been killed by the Overlord.
Only the top leaders of the major clans and the leaders of the various forces in Kyushu knew clearly where Huangfu Wuji was.
After the people in the hat declared war on Gu Chen, the coalition of monks belonging to various tribes and major forces stationed themselves a hundred miles away from Kunlun Ruins. There were more scouts every day, trying to find out what was going on in Kunlun Ruins.
Many important figures on the continent, including the leader of the Demon Clan and the leader of the Stone Clan, came to Luoyang one after another to meet with Gu Chen.
"Emperor Heaven, please put the overall situation first and never step into the Kunlun Ruins!"
Invited by many allies, they came to Kyushu specifically to persuade Gu Chen not to step into the Kunlun Ruins.
"Your Majesty, although Princess Lanchu is the only bloodline left from the former royal family, you have won the hearts and minds of the people now. It is the people's aspiration to ascend the throne and become emperor."
"Princess Lanchu has no use value to us. It may be fate that she was kidnapped by Huangfu Wuji. Your Majesty should put the country, the country and the country first!"
Some of Gu Chen's subordinates gave more direct advice, persuading Gu Chen to give up rescuing Princess Lanchu and focus on the overall situation of the world.
When the great enemy Huangfu Wuji existed, all the forces were thinking about how to resist him. But when he no longer posed a huge threat, all the forces were thinking about the distribution of vested interests.
Gu Chen single-handedly created the Five Clans Alliance and won this war involving the entire continent. It would be in the best interest of all parties if he becomes the Emperor of Kyushu.
In the eyes of all parties, Ji Lanchu was just an orphan with no father, no mother, and no relatives. It was an extremely wrong decision to let Gu Chen venture into the Kunlun Ruins for her and experience a near-death battle.
Therefore, many killing gods in heaven, some high-level officials of the demon clan, demon clan and stone clan, and even many local forces in Kyushu jointly submitted a letter to persuade Gu Chen to give up entering the Kunlun Ruins!
Under the pressure of countless people signing a letter, Gu Chen remained indifferent and just adjusted his state silently, preparing for the unprecedented battle with Huangfu Wuji.
Everyone said he would lose, and the battle on the battlefield fully demonstrated this, but Gu Chen refused to give up.
In life, there are some battles that you must fight with all your strength no matter how low the odds of winning are.
This is not only for Lan Chu, for his father, but also for Gu Chen himself!
For a long time, Huangfu Wuji has been the driving force for Gu Chen to practice hard. In order to avenge him, he worked hard to get to this day.
Unless he dies, Gu Chen will not be able to move towards a new life. If he chooses to retreat from this battle, it will be equivalent to denying his own efforts for so long.
Therefore, Gu Chen didn't think about how low the odds of winning were, he just went all out to prepare and didn't want to leave any regrets.
All parties tried to persuade Gu Chen unremittingly, hoping that he would give up his mind, and even asked Shen Yushu, Gu Yuan and others to come forward for this purpose.
It's just that Gu Chen is determined to fight in this battle. People close to him understand his temperament and know that persuasion is useless, so they just choose to support silently.
This makes all parties beat their chests and feet, thinking that the overlord is young and vigorous, and loves beauty but not the country. He is really confused!
This situation lasted for many days. When there were only five days left before the half-month appointment mentioned by the man in the hat, all parties changed their minds completely because of one incident.
Almost on the same day, huge octopus monsters appeared near major cities in Kyushu, as well as in the large population gathering areas of Donghuang, Beiyuan, West Desert and Nanling!
They spit out poisonous gas and wander around various cities. They do not take any action, but bring huge panic to the people everywhere.
The major clans and forces learned of the matter almost immediately through their own intelligence networks, and quickly determined that the octopus monsters that appeared across the continent were very similar to the monsters that the Dou Li people once put on the battlefield!
These monsters are extremely difficult to kill, and their poisonous gas can easily destroy millions of creatures in a city, but they remain stationary for the time being, as if they are waiting for some kind of instruction.
When everyone heard the news, they suddenly realized that the man in the hat's threat to Gu Chen was not a joke!
He once threatened that if Gu Chen didn't keep the appointment, the entire Kunlun Continent would pay the price, and he did what he said!
No one knew when the man in the hat released so many monsters across the continent, and how he gave instructions to these monsters, but everyone shuddered.
The Man in the Dou Hat is even scarier than Huangfu Wuji. They see how powerful Huangfu Wuji is, but the Man in the Dou Hat is still a mystery!
With the huge swarm of octopus monsters already threatening the territories of various major tribes and forces, all parties finally gave up persuading Gu Chen and chose to remain silent!
This battle is inevitable. If Gu Chen cannot defeat Huangfu Wuji, the entire continent will be devastated.
They can only choose to believe in this overlord who has created countless miracles in the past, and believe that he can create miracles again.
Gu Chen was finally clean. No one or anything disturbed him anymore. He concentrated on adjusting his condition so that he could reach his peak combat power.
All parties stepped up their deployment of troops and generals, and surrounded Kunlun Ruins openly and covertly.
They wanted to prevent unexpected situations. If Gu Chen lost the decisive battle with Huangfu Wuji, they hoped to save him in time. At the same time, they also wanted to ensure that Huangfu Wuji and the man in the hat could not escape again this time.
This battle must be ended once and for all. Kunlun Continent can no longer afford to let them escape, resulting in a situation riddled with holes.
In this tense atmosphere, the day agreed with the man in the hat is finally coming.
In the Time Dojo of the Nine Heavenly Palace, Gu Chen came to the Time Stone, with all the Heavenly Killing Gods standing behind him.
He was wearing a white robe representing the Emperor of Heaven, his black hair was casually disheveled, and his eyes were sharp and lively.
"The Heavenly Palace is above. Today, in the name of the Heavenly Emperor, I borrow the Time Stone for use!"
Gu Chen said solemnly, and then grabbed the Time Stone with one hand!
Today I have a duel with Huangfu Wuji. The opponent possesses two great treasures, the Kunlun Emperor Sword and the Kunlun Mirror. The only thing that can compete with them is the Heavenly Time Stone.
Last time Huihuichen tried to control the power of the Time Stone but was completely unable to do so. This time he sincerely prayed and tried again.
He made a great ambition to kill Huangfu Wuji to avenge the Emperor of Heaven and bring peace to the Kunlun Continent.
Under his unswerving will, the Time Stone finally slowly broke away from the ground, and was finally put into his storage ring.
The time was too short, and his Heavenly Emperor Time Fist was still far from perfect, but now that he could finally move the Time Stone, it still gave Gu Chen a huge encouragement!
"Thank you very much..."
Gu Chen believed that the Time Stone has a spirit and murmured.
"Let's go!"
He turned around and walked out of the Nine Heavenly Palace with a resolute look on his face.
A large group of killing gods followed closely behind him, like a white torrent.
