The battlefield was in a mess, and a monk was covered in wounds.
Gu Chen dragged his already exhausted body through the middle of them and walked towards the man in the hat.
"Have you finally made your choice?"
The man in the bamboo hat could not suppress his excitement, and he opened his arms to welcome him.
"Can't go..."
Qinglin Killer God fell to the ground, his head covered with blood, and said weakly.
"Brother Gu, you can't go..."
Zhao Rou, Lu Yichen and the other eight girls had already lost their strength and said anxiously at this moment.
"I... can still fight."
Ye Qingshuang was covered in blood. She staggered and tried to get up, but fell heavily to the ground.
"You can't go." Tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, feeling angry and unwilling to be incompetent at this moment and unable to change anything!
"Brother Gu, even if you agree to his conditions today, with your temperament, you may still change your mind tomorrow."
Jiang Yu said that he tried to deduce a way to solve the current situation, but found nothing.
Just like he failed to divine in advance that Samsara Sanren was the person in the bamboo hat, he couldn't figure out anything about the other party at all.
Everyone tried to retain Gu Chen. Many people tried hard to stand up and continue fighting, but their efforts seemed so pale under the ubiquitous dragon power of the man in the hat.
Gu Chen didn't respond to anyone's words, walked through the broken battlefield, and was about to walk in front of the man in the hat.
"roar--"
The white ape roared, his huge body got up from the ground, and he wanted to rush over anxiously.
"Huh, don't get in the way!"
The man in the bamboo hat stretched out his hand to explore, and saw the shadow of a golden dragon that was five thousand feet long roaring out of the ground and binding the white ape's body.
It was suddenly difficult to move and roared repeatedly, but the golden dragon's body tied it tighter and tighter.
"Don't hurt it!" Gu Chen's eyes were dark.
"Jiejiejie, don't worry, it is also my precious experimental product, and I am not willing to destroy it."
The man in the bamboo hat smiled and just put the white ape down again.
"Is the little guy also your experimental subject? Why do you have such a superior attitude to play with all living beings in your hands?"
"Who are you to choose for me what path I should take?"
Gu Chen showed a bleak smile.
"Since ancient times, the world has respected the strong. The strong make the rules, and the weak follow them!"
The man in the bamboo hat had a sparkle in his eyes.
Gu Chen was about to continue talking when a beautiful figure suddenly flashed out from behind him at extremely high speed.
She rushed towards the man in the bamboo hat regardless of her own safety, her black hair flying, and she didn't know when there was a golden sword in her hand!
"Lan Chu!"
Gu Chen looked shocked and tried to stop her, but failed to catch her!
Ji Lanchu tightly grasped the Kunlun Emperor Sword she had picked up, her pretty face showed determination, and the dragon-phoenix true fire kept coming out of her body.
"I, Ji Lanchu of the Ji family, the last dragon and phoenix bloodline, use my soul and my body's essence and blood to bind the Kunlun dragon soul and seal the dragon veins of the ten directions!"
A mysterious aura emanated from her whole body, she held the brilliant Kunlun Emperor Sword in both hands, and stabbed the man in the hat with all her might!
"Jie Jie Jie, you actually want to sacrifice yourself to activate the ancient method and deprive me of my control over the dragon veins."
There was some fear in the eyes of the man in the hat. This Ji Lan had just received the inheritance of Dragon Nest and was the only one who could control the dragon vein through orthodox means.
If she were stronger and not as weak as she is now, she might be able to take away her control over the dragon veins.
After all, he took advantage of the special celestial phenomenon of the sun and moon opposing each other and used a special secret method to control the dragon's veins.
It's a pity that if it were only if, even if Ji Lanchu sacrificed himself, it would still be difficult to wrest control from him!
"A moth flies into a flame and seeks death!"
The man in the bamboo hat suddenly raised his hand, and the surging dragon energy burst out!
Ji Lanchu had already given up hope of living, holding on to the Kunlun Sword tightly, crushing the dragon energy all the way forward!
"Gu Chen, if my life can be exchanged for yours, then everything will be worth it."
Ji Lan's beautiful eyes were full of tenderness at this moment, and she poured all her energy and spirit into this sword.
The roar of the dragon shook the sky for nine days, and the Kunlun Sword erupted with unprecedented dazzling flames. It was her life that inspired the sword!
"I am invincible!"
The man in the bamboo hat felt the pressure, suddenly roared, and struck out with a heavy palm!
boom--
An overwhelming amount of power poured out crazily. Ji Lanchu's Kunlun Emperor Sword flew out of her hand, and her people were thrown backwards like a kite with its string broken!
She turned into a bloody human body. Gu Chen watched helplessly as the life in her body was cut off bit by bit, and he shouted sadly. "No!"
He rushed forward and hugged her regardless of the fierce energy storm, and then the two of them rolled down into the void and fell heavily to the ground.
"Lan Chu, Lan Chu!"
Gu Chen struggled to get up, holding her bruised body, and screamed desperately.
The vitality in Ji Lanchu's body was gradually dissipating, and a sad smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "I'm sorry, Gu Chen, I can't help you at all..."
"Why are you so stupid? Why are you so stupid?" Tears almost burst out of Gu Chen's eyes.
"Jie, Jie, Jie, you are such a stupid woman, you actually want to fight against me!"
The man in the hat was still frightened by the sudden change just now, and said viciously.
"Gu Chen, she is certain to die. Stop being sad about a dead woman and make a choice!"
The patience of the man in the hat has gradually been exhausted in the suicide attack of this large group of people like moths to a flame.
"From now on, I only give you ten breaths of time to think about it! Either obey me, or I kill all the people you cherish one by one!"
His aggressive eyes looked at all Gu Chen's relatives and friends inside and outside Kunlun Ruins.
Gu Chen hugged Ji Lanchu's body, and the tears in the corners of his eyes evaporated as soon as they fell.
"Why do you let me make a choice? Why should I do what you say?"
"You said that in this world the strong are respected and the rules are decided by you, but I want to break this rule!"
He slowly lowered Ji Lanchu's body to the ground and stood up.
He raised his head, his eyes were blood red!
"Breaking the rules? What can you do now? You can't even protect your own woman."
The man in the bamboo hat is dumbfounded.
Gu Chen raised his hand, and in front of him, a strange stone with a strange shape and full of holes appeared.
This stone is filled with colorful glow, revealing an ancient and desolate atmosphere!
"Time Stone..."
The man in the bamboo hat narrowed his pupils, but quickly dismissed it.
"So what if it's the Time Stone? Not to mention that you are now exhausted and can't exert its power at all. Even if you are in full power, you can't exert even one ten thousandth of its power with your half-assed Heavenly Emperor Time Fist.
able……"
Before he finished speaking, the light of the Time Stone flooded Gu Chen, gradually becoming one with him, regardless of the other.
