Chapter 172 Gu Ce and the Mountain Hermit
Upon learning that Luo Feng had awakened, Gu Ce prepared to head to the extraterritorial battlefield.
However, it is not the main body that went there, nor is it a clone of Xingliuhai, but rather an energy clone created by Xingliuhai through the [Split] talent.
The energy clone possesses the exact same abilities as the Starflow Sea clone, the only difference being that it has no soul, only some spiritual imprints attached to it, so there is no need to worry about it being taken down by some powerful alien beings.
After all, there are many people outside watching Star Neptune right now.
Gu Ce knew that the Lord of Sirius would not let him go.
Using a soulless energy clone, without carrying any supreme treasures, and wielding only the Seven-Colored Light Sword, was enough to unleash the invincible power of a king.
Gu Ce piloted the Ice Wasteland spaceship toward the seventh battlefield of the extraterritorial battlefield.
There are two purposes for going to the battlefield outside the region.
First, he had promised Xu Xin to bring Luo Feng back safe and sound; he had to keep his promise.
Secondly, Gu Ce also wanted to see the Star Tower, and even the Mountain Guest.
With Luo Feng around, the Mountain Guest shouldn't do anything to him.
……
At this moment, Luo Feng was following the Mountain Guest, traveling by boat throughout the Star Tower.
The Mountain Guest explained the Star Tower to Luo Feng, and also told him about the existence of the two supreme treasures, the Calamity Armor and the Original Soul. Luo Feng chose to take a few general souls from the Star Tower for his own use, and also prepared two for Gu Ce.
Gu Ce has already told Luo Feng that he is coming to pick him up.
Next...
The Mountain Guest then gave Luo Feng a star map and told him the location of the remaining three fragments of the Heavenly Soul Crystal Plate of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual.
Those three fragments of the Heavenly Soul Crystal Plate were placed by the Mountain-Sitting Guest in a dangerous place in the universe, so that Luo Feng, a World Lord, an Immortal, and a Universe Venerable, could each retrieve one.
Then, the mountain dweller prepared to leave.
"Teacher," Luo Feng called out softly.
The mountain dweller sighed.
With his abilities as the strongest in the universe, he naturally knew that Gu Ce had already arrived at the seventh battlefield, outside the Star Tower!
But he didn't really want to see Gu Ce.
"Alright then." The Mountain Hermit raised his hand, deciding to listen to the requests of his three disciples.
……
Outside, on the seventh battlefield.
Outside the Star Tower.
"Star Neptune is coming! Run!"
Countless alien races who had been granted immortality were terrified by Gu Ce's arrival.
What are the standards for being invincible as a king?
To be able to survive under the hand of the Cosmic Venerable!
And what about Gu Ce's record?
To single-handedly kill a Cosmic Venerable!
It can only be said that there is a big difference between being an invincible king and being an invincible king.
Gu Ce strolled leisurely through the void, watching with interest the fleeing alien kings, but had no intention of making a move.
Too much killing will only attract the attention of powerful individuals from other races, and will not bring any benefits.
He is now regarded as a Universe Venerable by other races. The appearance of a Universe Venerable on the extraterrestrial battlefield is a violation of the rules. If Gu Ce makes a move, the Universe Venerables and Universe Lords of other races will also join the fray.
At that time, the battlefield outside the region will not only be in complete chaos, but may even trigger a war between ethnic groups.
Gu Ce cannot bear this responsibility at present.
"Um?"
The surrounding space froze, as if the fundamental laws governing the universe had lost their effect. Gu Ce felt a pause in the spacetime around him, and then he was detached from the space and pulled into a new space.
Here we are on a small boat that is more than ten kilometers long.
On the small boat sat Luo Feng, Zuo Shan Ke, and Puti.
"Gu Ce?"
Puti was somewhat surprised.
He had always thought that his third junior brother, the leader of the Earth lineage, would be Gu Ce. After all, Gu Ce's performance was too dazzling, completely overshadowing Luo Feng's brilliance. It wasn't until Luo Feng came to inherit the Star Tower's legacy that he realized Luo Feng was the disciple that the Mountain Guest valued.
While Luo Feng was making a name for himself as the King of the Blade River and inheriting the Star Tower, Gu Ce remained relatively quiet, leading Puti to believe that Gu Ce would fade into obscurity and that Luo Feng would become the true leader of the Earth lineage. However, Gu Ce then caused quite a stir.
With the body of a realm lord, he slew a cosmic venerable!
This is quite a commotion.
Two unparalleled powerhouses will be born from the Earth!
Puti was deeply moved.
"You must be Senior Zuoshanke, right? And this other senior as well," Gu Ce said with a confident smile.
"Just call me Puti," Puti replied with a smile.
The Mountain-Sitting Guest scrutinized Gu Ce closely. Gu Ce was merely an energy clone, and he couldn't discern anything from it. If Gu Ce's true form were here, the Mountain-Sitting Guest might be able to see something.
For example, was it the work of other god-kings?
"What brings you here?" the Mountain-Sitting Guest asked, looking down at Gu Ce.
The energy clone that Gu Ce split off from was only 100 meters tall.
"Senior Sitting Mountain Guest, I have always admired you. After learning that you are the founder of the Earth lineage, I admire you even more. I hope that Luo Feng can become your disciple. Unfortunately, my talent is not as good as Luo Feng's, and I was not chosen by you to be your disciple." Gu Ce said with a smile, without any fear of facing the strongest person in the universe.
The mountain dweller gave Gu Ce another deep look, feeling that this kid knew something and was trying to trick him.
"Luo Feng has already told me about the matter of the leader of the Earth lineage, and I don't have much of an objection to it," Gu Ce said calmly. "I am willing to relinquish the position of leader of the Earth lineage to Luo Feng."
"What are your conditions?" asked the man sitting on the mountain.
"No," Gu Ce shook his head.
"No?" The mountain dweller frowned.
Having no conditions is much more difficult than having conditions.
He does hope that Luo Feng will become the leader of the Earth lineage, but that is not a necessary condition.
Strictly speaking, Gu Ce is no longer of Earthling blood; he is merely the nominal leader of Earth.
"Luo Feng and I are as close as brothers," Gu Ce said calmly. "How can a mere position as the leader of Earth compare to the bond between us? Don't you agree, Luo Feng?"
Upon hearing Gu Ce's words, Luo Feng nodded subconsciously, glanced at Gu Ce, then at Zuo Shan Ke, and was momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Sitting Mountain Guest realized that he couldn't figure out Gu Ce's thoughts. Gu Ce seemed to have many questions at first, but after they actually met, he simply handed over the position of leader of Earth to Luo Feng without mentioning those questions.
trouble.
The Mountain-Sitting Guest sighed inwardly, nodded slightly, and said, "In the future, when you become the Lord of the Universe, I can help you tailor-make a supreme treasure free of charge, but you will need to provide the materials yourself."
"Thank you very much, Senior Sitting Mountain Guest!" Gu Ce's eyes lit up!
Putting aside everything else, as a being who became a god-king through forging skills, the equipment crafted by the Mountain Dweller is unparalleled on the Origin Continent.
