1240: Chapter 217: Domineering Between Heaven and Earth 1240: Chapter 217: Domineering Between Heaven and Earth âA mere Immortal-class heritage and the top ten tribes are nothing special,â left everyone present utterly speechless.
Of course, this was mainly because Gu Chen had displayed his extraordinarily strong abilities.
In a single encounter, using just his physical body, he had injured Zhou You, a direct disciple of the Ten Thousand Stars Palace, which was quite an astounding feat.
Even Jin Ju and others furrowed their brows at this moment, looking at Gu Chen with some doubt and amazement.
On the other side, Zhou You was holding his bleeding palm, his face somewhat gloomy.
âBeing able to defeat Junior Brother Zhang has already proven his extraordinariness.
Junior Brother Zhou, you should have been more careful,â Liu Han said sternly.
âDid you just say that Immortal-class heritages and the top ten tribes are nothing special?â At that moment, a woman from the Nine Heavens Hall, holding a congenital spiritual treasure, stepped forward and looked at Gu Chen with a cold expression.
âWhat a big mouth!â Jin Ju reacted with a cold laugh, expressing his disdain.
âI think itâs necessary to properly teach him a lesson, to show him what supreme truly means!â said a man from the Nine Heavens Hall, his face cold as he spoke.
âSupreme?â Upon hearing these words, Gu Chen couldnât help but laugh silently, saying, âDo you really think you are the supreme beings of all heavens?
How dare you even utter such words?â
âYou seem to know a lot!â Liu Han said sternly.
âI advise you to take back what you said.
Who are you, an unknown nobody, to judge Immortal-class heritages and the top ten tribes?â Jin Ju also spoke coldly.
Gu Chen remained indifferent and spoke slowly, âIf all among the Immortal-class heritages and the top ten tribes are as unreasonable and arrogant as you, calling them ânothing specialâ is actually putting it mildly.â
âHiss!â
As soon as these words came out, the onlookers were utterly shocked.
Their faces filled with astonishment, they secretly marveled at Gu Chenâs boldness.
Whether it was the Immortal-class heritages or the top ten tribes, in the Upper Realm, their status truly was, as the man from the Nine Heavens Hall had said, supremely esteemedâsubjects everywhere submitted to them.
Where would anyone dare to be as bold as Gu Chen and speak such words?
Even if they were dissatisfied with their arrogance and unattainability, they would only dare to think secretly but never voice it out loud.
The strongest beings wouldnât dare to speak such words, let alone Gu Chen, a cultivator from the Earth realm.
âHe is truly seeking his own death!â
âYou were given a way out but refused to take it, preferring to go to hell instead.
Since thatâs the case, Iâll help you achieve just that!â said the woman from the Nine Heavens Hall, ready to make her move.
âWait, let me do it myself!â At this moment, Zhou You, who had been injured by Gu Chen earlier, spoke up, clenching his teeth, unwilling to let others take action.
However, the woman from the Nine Heavens Hall was unwilling, looking at Zhou You and speaking coldly, âWhat are you thinking?
Do you still think he only has a grudge against your Ten Thousand Stars Palace?
His words have already sealed his fate.
Insulting the Nine Heavens Hall, even killing him a hundred times would not be enough!â
Everyoneâs hearts shuddered, and horror flashed in their eyes.
They hadnât expected that the most ruthless among the six would be this woman.
Even Gu Chen, upon hearing these words, showed a flicker of coldness in his eyes.
âNo more talking, Junior Sister, send him on his way,â the man from the Nine Heavens Hall also spoke, his expression utterly cold.
âDie!â
The woman from the Nine Heavens Hall, named He Yu, had a beautiful face, but her venomous eyes destroyed her appearance.
At that moment, she gently shook the congenital spiritual treasure bell in her hand towards Gu Chen.
Dong!
Instantly, the earth quaked and the void trembled; it was fortunate that the area was stable enough, otherwise, that single strike would have been sufficient to shatter the entire landscape before their eyes.
It was like the surge from the eruption of ten living volcanoes, utterly terrifying.
All onlookers wore faces of fear as they continuously retreated.
Only Gu Chen stood there, immovable, simply raising an arm to face it.
âSo overconfident!â
Seeing this scene, He Yu couldnât help but let out a cold laugh, thinking Gu Chen was merely flesh and blood attempting to withstand a congenital spiritual treasure.
With a heart as venomous as a snakeâs, this woman indeed was somewhat detestable.
The terrifying sound wave turned into ripples of waves, carrying earth-shattering power as it struck towards Gu Chen.
At that moment, Gu Chen extended his left hand, his expression extraordinarily calm, and grasped the small bell in the air.
âHm?!â
The next moment, an event that left He Lan and others dumbstruck and their hair standing on end occurred.
Gu Chenâs left hand effortlessly grasped the bell hanging in mid-air!
The terrifying sound wave, upon meeting his palm, vanished as easily as snow melts in boiling water.
âHow is that possible?!â
Upon witnessing this scene, He Lan and the others were greatly shaken, their eyes nearly popping out, almost splitting at the corners.
Such a scene was indeed too unbelievable.
âIs it not a real congenital spiritual treasure?â Gu Chen, relying on his mysterious gauntlets, grasped the bell and then slightly furrowed his brows.
Though the Nine Heavens Hall was an Immortal-class heritage, undeniably wealthy, congenital spiritual treasures werenât common cabbages, and congenital treasures werenât easily obtained, even with long periods of accumulation, it wasnât possible for everyone to have one.
For the Immortal-class heritages, although some disciples participate in the battle of the Ten Thousand Tribes, it was impossible for each person to have a congenital spiritual treasureâthat would truly be too affluent.
