Gu Chen had killed many geniuses from the Thirteen Immortal Sects, and only Zuo Chunqiu and Gao Mingjian survived in the end.
He brought too much losses to the Thirteen Immortals Sect, which severely damaged the traditional alliance and friendship between the Gu clan and the Thirteen Immortals Sect.
That day, Wu Lingxian and the mysterious man disguised as Penglai Island Master came to help Gu Chen. The leaders of the Thirteen Immortals Sect once suspected that the mysterious man was from the Gu clan, which aroused serious suspicion and distrust.
Gu Xuanwu did not help the Thirteenth Immortal Sect that day, which made the matter worse. The Thirteenth Immortal Sect demanded an explanation from the Gu clan.
Not long after this, Gu Xuanwu voluntarily resigned from the position of clan leader, which finally calmed down the anger of the Thirteen Immortals Sect.
Gu Yuanshan attacked Gu Chen that day and gained the trust and support of the Thirteen Immortals Sect. In addition, his status in the clan was already high, and he became the new clan leader.
Cousin Lian Yue did not explain the specific process of this power transfer in the letter, but Gu Chen felt the smell of conspiracy from between the lines.
How could the dignified Gu clan, who had conquered the world with their domineering power, step down just because the Thirteen Immortals Sect protested against the clan leader?
This matter is probably more about the internal struggle of the Gu clan, and this matter is definitely related to Gu Yuanshan.
I am afraid that Gu Yuanshan reached some kind of private agreement with the Thirteen Immortals Sect in exchange for their support, and at the same time used his influence to force the clan leader to abdicate.
He is the clan leader's biological uncle. He supported Gu Xuanwu to become the clan leader, why did he replace him now?
This shows that Gu Xuanwu is no longer in the interest of the Lingtai lineage, so he decided to do it himself.
Gu Chen shook his head. The current situation within the Gu clan was probably full of chaos.
If someone like Gu Yuanshan, who always considers the Lingtai lineage as the clan leader, becomes the clan leader, sooner or later there will be more divisions among the six lines of the Gu clan.
Gu Chen read the letter to the end. After learning that Gu Yuanshan had become the clan leader, he immediately announced that he would be jointly wanted with the Thirteen Immortals Sect to arrest him for treason!
Gu Chen sneered when he saw it. He was really in cahoots with the Thirteen Immortals Sect. No wonder he got their support.
As a result, Gu Chen's path to return to the Gu Clan was completely cut off, and he even fell into the spotlight. Being hunted by the Thirteen Immortals Sect and the Gu Clan at the same time was equivalent to being hunted by the entire continent.
Gu Chen didn't care, he had left the Gu clan and never thought about going back. As for Gu Yuanshan, he would settle accounts with him sooner or later.
A cold light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes, he put away the letter he had read, and then left the yard and walked towards Wu Lingxian's residence.
He decided to go to the Deep Demon Sea to mourn his father and try to find his bones to take home.
If you want to see a person alive or if you want to see a corpse after death, my father should not be buried in the loess of this foreign land.
Gu Chen came to Wu Lingxian's residence and told him his plan.
"Going to the Deep Demonic Sea? I have stayed there for quite some time, so I know it very well."
Wu Lingxian did not object after hearing this, but introduced the situation there to Gu Chen.
"The Deep Demonic Sea is a place of exile. It is the place where the vitality of heaven and earth is the thinnest on the Fairy Continent."
"Its depth is bordered by the Eye of the Tiankeng, and the Eye of the Tiankeng is the most dangerous place in the Fairy Continent and even the entire pale yellow ancient star."
Wu Lingxian's eyes showed a complex look when he said this, and Gu Chen was keenly aware that he seemed to have very special feelings towards the deep demonic sea and the pits in the sky.
"Remember that when you go to the Deep Demonic Sea, don't go into the deep pits and holes. It's too dangerous there. Even the immortals never come back. Occasionally, there are people who come out alive, but I don't know what they will lose...
"
he murmured.
Gu Chen nodded seriously, listening to Wu Lingxian's tone as if he had been there before, so he chose to believe his advice.
"Besides the Tiankeng and the Eye, the Deep Demonic Sea is a good place." Wu Lingxian seemed to have remembered something and smiled.
"Didn't Senior say that the vitality of heaven and earth is thin there? How could it be a good place?" Gu Chen was puzzled.
"If you want to practice well, it is definitely not a good place. Even if you practice obediently in your cave, you may be killed for no reason, and the reason is just because people passing by don't like you."
"But you are not going there to practice. In addition to looking for your father, you can also help my Martial Palace recruit soldiers and horses."
Wu Lingxian chuckled, why didn't he think of going to that place to recruit talents before? There must be many monks in that place who have enmity with the Thirteen Immortals Sect!
"You don't know something. The reason why the Deep Demonic Sea is called the place of exile is because there are many monks wanted by the major sects in the Fairy Continent."
"Those people were not tolerated by the major sects in the Fairy Continent for various reasons, and they had no choice but to hide in the Deep Demonic Sea."
"Because the Deep Demonic Sea is really a worthless place, and the terrain there is complex and dangerous, and it is close to the Tiankeng. Even the Thirteen Immortal Sects are unwilling to set foot there, so those people have room to survive."
"Over time, the Deep Demon Sea has developed. It is said that unruly people come out of poor mountains and harsh waters. Most of the monks there are desperadoes with low morals but extremely strong strength."
Gu Chen understood. Wu Dian wanted to develop but lacked manpower. At present, most of the Fairy Continent was within the influence of the Thirteen Immortal Sects. It would be difficult for them to recruit manpower in a short time, so Wu Lingxian decided to go to the Deep Demon Sea.
On the demon cultivator.
"If it's like what the senior said, that group of people may be difficult to educate. Even if they are recruited into the martial arts hall, they will become cancer after a long time."
Gu Chen thought about it, since he became the deputy palace master with no one under him, he should at least think about the future of Martial Palace.
"That's true, but the Deep Demon Sea is a powerful force that has been ignored for a long time. If it can be integrated, our Martial Palace will greatly make up for the lack of foundation."
"It's not like we really want them to join us. Occasionally, those with suitable conditions can be taken into the Martial Palace for training, and the rest can be treated as slaves."
"This is the rule of the Deep Demonic Sea. The law of the jungle is supreme there, and anything you say with a hard fist counts."
Wu Lingxian said domineeringly.
Gu Chen frowned upon hearing this. It turns out that the Deep Demon Sea is so chaotic and dangerous. Why would his father, who was seriously injured when he left the Gu clan, go there?
Is there any hidden secret in this?
As Gu Chen thought about it, Wu Lingxian continued. "This time is a test for you. If you can successfully bring the entire Deep Demon Sea under the banner of the Martial Palace, I will teach you the unique martial arts skills."
"Your physical body is very powerful. Although it is not as strong as the Dharma Body, it is comparable to the Dharma Body. In fact, you are a great candidate for practicing martial arts."
"It's a pity that your practice is too complicated and you can't abandon other traditions to focus on martial arts, so I haven't taught you any secret skills in the past three months."
"This is an opportunity. If you can perform well, I will teach you some powerful combat skills and combine them with your physical strength. Your strength will definitely be greatly increased."
Gu Chen nodded. "I understand. I'm going to go to the Deep Demon Sea."
