Various Great Powers Arrive, Chen Wen Suffers a Siege

This is the aura of a Heavenly King Realm expert.

Everyone present changed their expressions.

Experts at the Heavenly King Realm level were already at the very top of the pyramid in the Ancient Yuan Realm.

"Haha, Jiang Taichu, can you still laugh now?" Zhao Feng suddenly burst into laughter.

Jiang Taichu's expression remained unchanged, a mocking sneer on his lips.

Because this was the moment they had been waiting for.

The more people who came, the more people would die.

Only then could they uproot these people all at once and make Chu Tianlong personally experience despair.

Soon, an old man with white hair, a youthful face, and surrounded by black mist appeared before everyone.

This old man was Mu Jiuzhou's master.

He was also an elder of the Hidden Ancient Clan Mu Clan, Mu Chongyun.

Mu Chongyun swept his gaze over everyone, finally landing on Mu Jiuzhou.

Upon seeing Mu Jiuzhou's tattered clothes and damaged divine body, his brows furrowed, and killing intent raged in his eyes.

The Nine Heavens Demonic Body that Mu Jiuzhou possessed had nine chances for awakening, with his strength tripling each time.

The only drawback was its extremely demanding requirements for resources and cultivation.

If there was even the slightest misstep, it could lead to complete failure.

Therefore, even as an elder of the Mu Clan.

For Mu Jiuzhou's safety, he had taken on the responsibility of protecting his path.

What he hadn't expected, however, was that merely attending a tea party would bring such a calamity upon Mu Jiuzhou.

It was possible that all the Mu Clan's efforts in cultivating Mu Chongyun might be wasted because of this.

Thinking of this, Mu Chongyun's killing intent intensified. "Who did this?"

As soon as he spoke, the entire place fell silent. Everyone could feel the oppressive killing intent washing over them.

"The one who injured my disciple is already dead," Mu Jiuzhou suddenly said.

"Dead?" Mu Chongyun's brows furrowed even tighter. "What does that mean?"

"Master, please look up," Mu Jiuzhou pointed to the sky.

Mu Chongyun looked up, his pupils contracting instantly.

How did this Gravity Heavenly Thunder Array end up like this?

And why had the Heavenly Thunder turned black?

The more Mu Chongyun investigated, the more shocked he became.

He himself had once tried to subdue this Gravity Heavenly Thunder Array but had failed.

However, he remembered that the Heavenly Thunder in the past had not given him the same sense of shock as this black lightning.

Just a glance made his skin crawl and his scalp tingle.

He was certain that if he got close, he would be blasted into ashes, with no power to resist.

After suppressing his inner turmoil, Mu Chongyun asked Mu Jiuzhou, "How did this Gravity Heavenly Thunder Array become like this?"

Mu Jiuzhou did not hide anything and recounted the entire sequence of events.

A first-level Heavenly Human Realm?

First, he killed Ximen Zhantian with a single palm strike.

Then, he suppressed his disciple with one hand.

After doing all that, he charged into the Gravity Heavenly Thunder Array alone and forcibly absorbed the Heavenly Thunder.

Finally, he was struck and killed by the black lightning, his soul even blasted into ashes.

When Mu Chongyun heard everything Mu Jiuzhou said, he felt as if he were listening to a fairy tale.

Putting aside the matter of a first-level Heavenly Human Realm instantly defeating two third-level Life and Death Realm experts.

The act of charging into the Gravity Heavenly Thunder Array alone was already extremely absurd.

But he knew that his disciple would not lie to him in front of so many people.

Besides, there was no point in deceiving him with such things.

After a long while, Mu Chongyun finally digested this information and said, "So, the one who came with that kid was him?"

As he spoke, Mu Chongyun locked his gaze onto the calm-faced Jiang Taichu.

He was naturally aware that Jiang Taichu was the Hall Master of the Realm Guard Hall.

The Realm Guard Hall was not a major power, but Jiang Taichu himself was quite talented.

He was already a fourth-level Heavenly King Realm expert before the age of thirty-five, and his personal strength was also formidable.

Years ago, they had met during an expedition and even sparred.

But in the end, he had only managed a draw, thanks to his superior realm.

Of course, he hadn't used his true trump cards.

But he also knew that Jiang Taichu definitely hadn't either.

So, if they were to compare pure talent, Jiang Taichu was actually a notch above him.

"Yes," Mu Jiuzhou quickly replied.

"Jiang Taichu, is it? I can let you go, but you must tell me the origin of that brat."

Mu Chongyun stared at Jiang Taichu before speaking.

Jiang Taichu glanced at Mu Chongyun indifferently. "What if I don't?"

A cold glint flashed in Mu Chongyun's eyes. "If you don't, you'll share the same fate as that brat."

The expression on Jiang Taichu's face vanished. "Who do you think you are, daring to threaten me?"

Boom!

As his words fell, his aura surged, powerfully clashing with Mu Chongyun's imposing presence.

Two immense waves of energy erupted, distorting and shattering space. The ground below exploded into a tempest of dust.

"He's not a Heavenly King Realm fourth-tier cultivator?"

"How did he suddenly become sixth-tier?"

Zhao Feng and Li Yundong's faces changed drastically, staring at Jiang Taichu in disbelief.

So, Jiang Taichu hadn't been giving his all when fighting them earlier.

Even though the sixth-tier Heavenly King Realm and the fourth-tier Heavenly King Realm were only two minor stages apart, to cultivators, it was a chasm.

Mu Chongyun was equally shocked.

He hadn't expected Jiang Taichu's realm to have caught up to his in just a few years.

After all, last time, they had been three minor stages apart.

If Jiang Taichu were the same age as him, what would the future look like?

Thinking this, Mu Chongyun was not only terrified but also so consumed by jealousy that his eyes felt like they would split open.

Just as the atmosphere grew heavy and oppressive, nineteen more terrifying auras pressed down from afar.

These auras included those of Heavenly King Realm and Nirvana Realm cultivators, but each one was incredibly powerful.

"What's going on?"

The onlookers stared at the distance in collective shock.

Nineteen figures rapidly approached, their forms quickly growing larger.

Seeing this, the dozens of talented disciples breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Their people had finally arrived, and now they weren't worried about perishing here.

Honestly, Chen Wen had truly terrified them just now.

Even if Chen Wen might have died in that cluster of black lightning, they remained uneasy.

They were afraid Chen Wen would suddenly pop out from it.

"You are indeed a peerless genius, and you are indeed not inferior to me."

Mu Chongyun paused here, then changed his tone. "But now, do you still think it's a wise choice to keep silent?"

Instantly, all eyes turned to Jiang Taichu.

They also wanted to know how Jiang Taichu would deal with so many people attacking him.

"If you want to know my identity so badly, why don't I tell you myself?"

Before Jiang Taichu could respond, Chen Wen's voice suddenly rang out.

At these words, everyone froze in place, their pupils dilating in shock.

This voice was familiar to them.

Instantly, they all turned their gazes sharply towards the source of the sound.
