Chapter 1472: Chapter 342: Hunting the Demi-Mighty (Three Updates of Ten Thousand Words, Subscribe Please!)_2

The last person, clad in Star-threaded Clothes, with clear brows and beautiful eyes, handsome and extraordinary, was a half-step mighty figure from Ten Thousand Stars Palace, named Shen Ziyan.

Five of the strongest descendants from the great powers of the Ascension Realm had gathered, evidently to carry out the orders of the Golden Roc Clan’s ancient ancestor and four other unparalleled beings, to assassinate Gu Chen.

Each of these five individuals possessed extraordinary talents, and hundreds to thousands of years ago, they too had once dominated the world and become famous in their era as the most exceptional geniuses.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for them to reach this point in less than ten thousand years.

"Killing this child will be easy; the crux is whether he truly has the origin of the myriad worlds within his body?" Shen Ziyan spoke slowly and methodically.

At these words, people like Jin Hong’s gaze sharpened, and they became interested.

Even though such a treasure would need to be handed over to the ancestors of the Golden Roc Clan once they leave this pocket world, they could still possess it for a time to comprehend.

"After killing the child, we’ll know with a single probe," Jin Hong said indifferently.

In their eyes, Gu Chen indeed had genius that surpassed theirs, but sadly, this era did not afford him time, forcing him to prematurely enter the ranks of those contending for the path of ultimate strength.

One could only say it was a matter of timing and destiny.

At this moment, in this small world, a member of the Ascension Realm from the Golden Roc Clan came over and spoke softly into Jin Hong’s ear.

"My apologies, gentlemen, I must take my leave for now, but should there be news of Gu Chen, feel free to inform me at any time," Jin Hong said.

"Understood," nodded Shen Ziyan and the others in response.

Afterward, Jin Hong took his leave.

Zhu Xu watched Jin Hong leave and slightly frowned, saying: "He wouldn’t have already discovered that kid’s whereabouts and is going for the benefits alone, would he?"

"That’s hard to say," Shen Ziyan shook his head.

In their view, if any one of them discovered Gu Chen’s whereabouts, to be honest, it was not a given they would share the information with the others.

Splitting all opportunities between the five was clearly not as good as one person monopolizing them.

Elsewhere, Jin Hong followed his clan member out of this small world and hurried towards a certain location.

"Is what you said true, that you’ve discovered traces of a divine medicine?" Jin Hong asked with a heavy voice.

Divine medicine was of great use to him, both for cultivation and for comprehension.

"Absolutely certain," said the Ascension Realm cultivator from the Golden Roc Clan.

...

Meanwhile, Gu Chen, with the Eye of Heaven, followed the obscure trail vibrating throughout the void and indeed made a discovery as he pursued it.

"When I consumed the Blazing Fire Vine, I hadn’t reached the Ascension Realm yet, and a lot of things were still unclear. This time, upon obtaining divine medicine, I must thoroughly comprehend it, lest I waste heaven’s gifts," Gu Chen said to himself in secret.

This place was understood to contain multiple divine medicines; it depended on who had the chance and strength to seize them.

However, halfway through his journey, Gu Chen suddenly noticed something was amiss. His eyes, transformed into cryptic symbols, turned as he detected other energies were also tracking something from afar.

"The Golden Roc Clan?" Upon sensing the related energy, Gu Chen’s expression suddenly turned cold.

Swoosh!

The next moment, he changed direction, proactively heading towards the energy he sensed belonging to the Golden Roc Clan.

He vividly remembered the scene where the ancient ancestor of the Golden Roc Clan had coerced him; Gu Chen never considered himself broad-minded enough to repay grievances with kindness. Now that he had the opportunity, of course he wanted revenge.

Moreover, the Golden Roc Clan had been enemies with him for a long time; they were mortal foes, so Gu Chen saw no need for courtesy.

"Hmm?"

It must be said, Jin Hong’s perception was extremely sharp; as soon as Gu Chen approached, he sensed something immediately.

Of course, this was mainly because Gu Chen did not conceal his approach.

"Someone’s coming!" Jin Hong frowned and swiftly turned his gaze toward the distance.

"Is that... Gu Chen?!" Jin Hong’s eyes narrowed sharply, his expression somewhat shocked, not expecting his target to appear so quickly.

"It really is a case of no effort required to find what comes without searching!" Upon spotting Gu Chen, a broad smile spread across Jin Hong’s face, feeling his luck was at its peak.

The divine medicine close at hand, and now the target appearing before him willingly, Jin Hong felt favored by destiny, perhaps this opening of the realm-altering opportunity was destined for him to be the first to break through to Primordial and prove his supreme path!

With that thought in mind, Jin Hong’s smile grew even more intense. He looked at Gu Chen and shouted, "You certainly have guts, coming here to court death on your own."

Gu Chen remained silent, staring at him with deep eyes gleaming with the dazzling patterns of laws, stirring a sense of impending danger within Jin Hong, causing his brows to knit together.

"Why does this feel off?" he murmured to himself. Why would a being just entering the Ascension Realm give him this impression? Jin Hong was perplexed.

Whoosh!

At that moment, Gu Chen moved with terrifying speed, arriving in an instant, already striking!

"Hand over all your fortunes, and I may spare your life!" Jin Hong bellowed.

Regardless, he was half a step into supreme power, having trained one of the Great Powers to the fourth rank; there was no reason he should be unable to defeat Gu Chen.

"It seems this youngster must have a treasure on him; I need to be cautious," Jin Hong thought to himself.

However, hearing his words, Gu Chen still gave no response. After arriving in front of him, a dazzling burst of fist light flashed, forcing Jin Hong to subconsciously close his eyes.

But on instinct, he still struck out, clashing his hand against Gu Chen’s fist.

Boom!

A thunderous explosion shattered the void, and Jin Hong was about to speak when a surge of intense pain hit him, and blood oozed between the fingers of his hand.

"Master!" Another guide from the Golden Roc Clan in the Ascension Realm exclaimed in shock, and in the next instant, a spurt of fresh blood soared high into the sky.

At that moment, Gu Chen had decapitated him with a palm strike!

"How dare you!"

Seeing this, Jin Hong was immediately enraged and furious, thinking back to when he had boasted to Shen Ziyan and others, considering Gu Chen an easy kill, only to be humiliatingly proven wrong so swiftly.

Even the companion from his clan was beheaded at first encounter, which intensified Jin Hong’s anger.

"Gu Chen, have you come here to willingly seek death?!" Jin Hong’s eyes flared with a cold light, his golden locks wildly swirling, as he launched a Great Power with a sweep of his hand.

This time, Gu Chen finally spoke, his voice as cold and bone-chilling as the arctic wind, saying, "I’m here for your life!"

The next moment, with a thunderous roar, Gu Chen made his move. In just an instant, he delivered eighty-one punches, their terror-inducing lights piercing through everything, the erupting aura demolished the heavens in all directions!

The Heaven-Derived Battle Body, with seven traces, made Gu Chen’s physical body terrifyingly powerful.

Jin Hong’s Great Power was obliterated, and Gu Chen’s fierce punches hit him directly in the face, sending him flying sideways, half of his body completely mangled.

Thud!

In the next moment, Gu Chen descended like a war god from the heavens, stepping on Jin Hong’s chest, pinning him down to the ground with force.

"Pugh!"

Jin Hong spat out a mouthful of blood, and before he could mount any offense, in a flash of lightning quick action, Gu Chen had beaten him half to death.

Such a near-supreme being was thus crushed and pinned to the ground by Gu Chen!
