Chapter 940: Chapter 481 Chen Mu Appears_2
Gu Xiaochen softly said: “The path of opening Martial Arts is not a feat that can be accomplished by one’s strength alone. Just like the construction of a lofty building, every brick and tile is indispensable. From ancient times to the present, the sages of martial arts from generations past are like those bricks and tiles. We stand upon their shoulders, gazing at the higher heavens, and we will eventually become bricks and tiles for those who come after us.”
Their discussion did not shy away from anything, nor was it deliberately concealed. It was very open, so even those in the Blood Exchange Realm far away, despite the chaotic Power of Heaven and Earth, could still roughly hear what was said.
Everyone knew who Gongyang Yu and Gu Xiaochen were talking about.
To have both a Heavenly Blade and a Sword Venerable regard themselves as inferior in setting an example in Martial Arts could only refer to the one and only universally recognized supreme being of today’s world, the Martial Saint of Da Xuan, Chen Mu!
Swish! Swish!!
With the appearance of Gongyang Yu, as if a certain catalyst had been finally triggered, figures began to appear one after another, coming from all directions towards the Peak of Kunlun Mountain.
Some traversed the void, leaving a long rainbow across the dark heavens vault, while others measured the Kunlun Mountains step by step, climbing the peak alongside the steep cliffs like clouds ascending.
“It’s the Patriarch of Nanhua Villa, Teng Xuangjing. Isn’t it rumored he had already passed away, yet he’s still in the world.”
“Sikong Rui of Green Cloud Sect, he actually came too. Not long ago, he fought a grand battle with many top experts of the Six Paths Alliance, was besieged, forced to fight alone against many, and was said to have been severely injured. It seems the rumor was inaccurate.”
Regarding those figures stepping towards the Peak of Kunlun Mountain, everyone present could list them as if counting exquisite family treasures. The names of each were thunderous to their ears, for the Celestial Humans in the world were just those few, no more than twenty in total.
Chen Mu’s battle in the Central Prefecture further reduced the Celestial Master count by slaying two Celestial Humans.
Peak of Kunlun Mountain.
“Brother Teng, you remain as graceful as ever after all these years.”
“Brother Wang, have you been well lately?”
Each of the Celestial Masters greeted one another upon arrival.
As the only Celestial beings in the world, they were naturally acquainted with each other. Although some had conflicts with one another, few had grudges of life and death, and most had some level of friendship between them.
Some also greeted Gongyang Yu and Gu Xiaochen, to which Gongyang Yu and Gu Xiaochen responded calmly without arrogance.
All present were Celestial Masters, and even if there were differences in strength, there was little disparity in status. Each had reached the limit of Martial Arts and sought to explore the path ahead.
Even Sword Venerable Gu Xiaochen and Heavenly Blade Gongyang Yu, who could slay Blood Exchange Realm figures, could not kill a Celestial Human, for there was no realm difference between them.
Once reaching the Celestial Human Level, no matter how weak, one would not be too weak to have some self-preservation ability against the strongest Celestial Humans. Even if they could not defeat their opponent, they could retreat as long as they did not forcefully engage in battle.
On that day.
The two Celestial Humans slain by Chen Mu in the Central Prefecture, one was too close and was crushed by Chen Mu’s invincible physique before retreating, eventually being severely injured and killed on the spot. The other attempted to attack Chen Mu’s Soul Heart but was backlashed and heavily wounded. Though he forcibly retreated into his body, his Soul Heart was too damaged to support him, losing his ability to resist.
If Yang Qingshan and Ruan Tian both decided not to battle Chen Mu and merely fled, then even with Chen Mu’s abilities on that day, it would still have been difficult to kill them.
Once becoming a Celestial Human, unless taking a significant risk, there was very little threat left in the world.
This is the confidence of a Celestial Human overseeing the world!
“Thirty long years, passed in the blink of an eye.”
Just as the crowd exchanged greetings, a figure approached with a long song, stepping out of the void, his form ethereal as clouds, dressed in a resplendent robe, with a demeanor like an Immortal descending to the earth, thus stepping into the Peak of Kunlun Mountain.
“After many years, seeing you again today, Brother Zhang, you seem joyous.”
Someone greeted the newcomer with a smile.
Another top-tier Celestial Master of the world arrived, a person who had refined the Way of the Five Elements to its pinnacle, entered Dao with the complete Five Elements, achieved Blood Exchange, and became a Celestial Human. In terms of achieving Dao, he was the youngest among them, but still over a century old, and his name was equally renowned throughout the land.
Lord of Tianhu Island,
Zhang Chen!
“Reunited after such a long time, seeing you all well brings joy to my heart.”
The Lord of Tianhu Island laughed freely, cupping his fists towards everyone present, sweeping his gaze over the crowd, and said: “I thought I had come the latest for this meeting at Kunlun, yet it seems there are still those who haven’t arrived?”
“Not late, not late.”
A quiet voice seemed to emerge from nowhere, echoing from the void.
The Celestial Masters did not seem surprised, but those in the Blood Exchange Realm in the distance all had slight changes in their expressions, their hearts filled with awe, for they could not detect where the voice originated!
Everyone’s eyes turned in unison, and on the edge of the Peak of Kunlun Mountain, a figure gradually became visible, clad in a black robe, standing there with a dark aura, almost imperceptible.
“Mo Zun!”
Someone’s heart trembled inwardly, a deep wariness in their eyes.
Leader of the Six Paths Alliance,
Mo Zun!
Among the unparalleled masters under heaven, whether it be Gongyang Yu or Gu Xiaochen, Master Xuantian, and others, none were bloodthirsty. Gongyang Yu had wielded his blade across the world in his youth, causing much slaughter, yet he had merely slain enemies without being bloodthirsty.
