1430: 320 imperial clan 1430: 320 imperial clan Everyone watched as Gu Chen and the Holy Maiden of Taoxu Road, Chu Yue Ling, departed, all hesitating for a moment.
âCan the two of themâŠ
really pull it off?â Long Yi frowned, somewhat worried.
Master Qin and the others also had solemn expressions on their faces.
Having spent a great era in these lands, they naturally had some clear understanding of the power of the imperial clans.
With Gu Chen going alone, Master Qin and the others couldnât help but feel uneasy.
But at this point, this was the decision that Gu Chen had made, and all they could do was choose to follow it.
âDonât worry, with Brother Guâs strength, moving freely should not be a problem, and at worst, he can definitely escape,â said Tianyuan Taoist, the successor of the Three Pure Heavens.
Master Qin and the others nodded, and everyone stayed there, waiting for Gu Chenâs return.
âŠ
Having reached the pinnacle of the mid-stage of Feather Transformation Realm and perfected the Illusory Annihilation Traceless, Gu Chenâs speed was incredibly fast.
He and Chu Yue Ling traveled side by side at breakneck speeds through the heavens and earth.
Surrounding scenery blurred constantly as they passed through city after city, and with the aid of teleportation formations, it didnât take long to arrive in the region occupied by the imperial clans of this world.
The Holy Realm had existed for innumerable eras, but those truly worthy of being called imperial clans or royal clans numbered only ten.
Among them, the five great Fairy Clans occupied half.
The remaining five great imperial clans were the Heavenly Clan, Thunder Clan, Stone Clan, Prison Clan, and finally, the Purple-Gold True Behemoth Clan.
Amongst these, all but the Stone Clan had a death feud with Gu Chen and would soon join forces to attack Qingyun Palace.
As for the five great Fairy Clans, the Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, and SilkWorm Clan wouldnât make a move.
The Kirin Clan had Qi Dao, and so probably wouldnât interfere, while the Peng Clan, because of Jin Lieâs death, would definitely not let Gu Chen off.
âTruly exceptional, as expected of the imperial clans that have ruled this world for endless eras,â Gu Chen and Chu Yue Ling stood side by side in the clouds above the Prison Clanâs city, his eyes shining brilliantly as he surveyed the entire massive city.
The city was entirely black, forged from the top-tier heavenly material Black Martial Profound Gold, second only to materials like Dark Fairy Gold and Sun Fairy Gold, and was incomparably valuable.
This showed just how rich and powerful the Prison Clan was, truly incomparable to other forces.
âThere are indeed quite a few strong ones,â Gu Chen raised an eyebrow.
Although there was the suppression of the Holy Realmâs ceiling, preventing surpassing the Feather Transformation Realm, the number of warriors who had reached full completion was quite a bit more than in Qingyun Palace.
Moreover, such a power would definitely have no shortage of treasures internally.
If it werenât for the unique rules of the Holy Realm, Gu Chen wouldnât have had the confidence to take on an imperial clan by himself.
âHas the Prison Clan completely thrown in their lot with the Holy Sect now?â At that moment, the Holy Maiden of Taoxu Road, Chu Yue Ling, spoke.
Her jade-like skin and stunning beauty, along with her cold and distant aura, stood quietly beside Gu Chen.
âIndeed.â Gu Chen nodded.
Using Divine Eye, he could very clearly see that the entire city of the Prison Clan was enveloped in an extremely dense demonic aura, even forming a demonic cloud that loomed over the huge city.
Those cultivators within the city who were not of the Prison Clan, unwittingly, had become blood sustenance for the clan and would be silently devoured in their entirety.
The reason those people were still alive was that they had more important things to do, as the Prison Clan was busy dealing with Gu Chen.
They had been in contact with several other imperial clans like the Heavenly and Peng Clans during this time, even communicating with other forces to join in the offensive and not give Gu Chen the slightest chance.
âThat brat Gu Chen is utterly brazen, truly deserving of punishment!â
âHis audacity is immense, daring to offend the imperial clans and killing a young master; heâs undoubtedly going to die!â
âHmph, those other forces are truly cowardly.
Even when the five great imperial clans join forces, there are still many who donât dare to make a move.â
âA mere brat is all, with our combined forces, what is there to fear?
Ridiculous that the Dragon, Phoenix, and SilkWorm Clans, pretending to be imperial clans, actually chose to submit!â
âCanât the Kirin Clan be persuaded?
Have they sent back a reply?â
âThe Kirin Clan declined on account of the Fairy Qi Dao being in Gu Chenâs hands, making them hesitate to make a move.â
Although Gu Chen was standing outside the city, his strength was immense, and intentionally or not, he still clearly heard some of the discussions.
Obviously, his prowess demonstrated in the Golden Path Palace made many prodigies fear, and upon their return, they continuously advised their own forces not to act against him.
Of course, some of the prodigies within those forces had been killed by Gu Chen, and under the leadership of the five imperial clans, these individuals certainly had their own thoughts about Gu Chen.
But that was a discussion for another time.
Today, Gu Chen had come to deal with the Prison Clan.
There was no helping it; since they chose to side with the Holy Sect, Gu Chen just happened to need Divine Power value to enhance his own strength.
At this moment, in a grand hall of the Prison Clan, both the clan leader and the many elders who had been in seclusion all emerged.
It couldnât be helped; descendants of an ancient ancestor of their clan had been slaughtered, and the fact that they had sided with the Holy Sect had been exposed, so naturally, they couldnât stay calm.
âAt this point, given the presence of that brat Gu Chen, for now, the other imperial clans have temporarily set aside their grievances against us,â an elder of the Prison Clan spoke.
With the âgreat enemyâ Gu Chen in front of them, the Heavenly and Thunder Clans, naturally, had no interest in troubling the Prison Clan.
âBut no matter what, since he killed the young master, he is undoubtedly destined to die; the wrath of an imperial clan cannot be withstood by anyone,â another elder spoke up, his temper somewhat explosive.
