Gu Yuan fell into the trap
He always felt that the Hun Tiandi's purpose seemed to go beyond this.
In fact, Gu Yuan was right!
The Hun Tiandi came to challenge Gu Yuan to a fight, partly to see how strong Gu Yuan had become compared to a thousand years ago.
If Gu Yuan, like Xiao Xuan a thousand years ago, were to take another half-step forward in strength, it would be a devastating blow to his grand plan spanning a millennium!
This is the last thing the Hun Tiandi wanted to see.
Therefore, he had to test the waters!
In addition, his challenge to fight Gu Yuan was also intended to attract the attention of Gu Yuan and the Gu Clan.
By exposing himself, now recovered from his injuries, to Gu Yuan's view, he could then create opportunities for Nihility Devouring Flame to cause trouble.
These are the two purposes for Hun Tiandi to challenge Gu Yuan to a fight.
As for Gu Yuan, to be honest, he was also itching to get a match.
After all, just as the Hun Tiandi said, in the current Dou Qi Continent, only the two of them are qualified to be each other's rivals.
Even the others, including Lei Ying and Yan Jin, were no match for him in just a few rounds.
In other words, for nearly a thousand years, he hasn't seriously used his power even once.
Furthermore, Gu Yuan shared the same thought as the Hun Tiandi: he also wanted to test how much strength the other party could still exert after his injuries had healed.
It can be said that when the Hun Tiandi proposed to fight him, Gu Yuan was clearly tempted.
"Forget it, whatever other motives the Hun Tiandi may have, testing his current strength is the most important thing!"
Unable to fathom the Hun Tiandi's other motives, Gu Yuan didn't dwell on it too much.
To be honest, this is Bai Zi's mentality----
"Then come on, Hun Tiandi!"
After regaining his composure, Gu Yuan did not refuse and nodded in agreement.
As the strongest expert in the entire Dou Qi Continent, Gu Yuan was not intimidated by the Hun Tiandi.
Seeing that Gu Yuan had indeed taken the bait, the Hun Tiandi grinned.
"A Battle in the Chaos Space!"
Having said that, the Hun Tiandi constructed a new Void once again in the Void!
On the Dou Qi Continent, space is actually divided into three layers.
That is, the outermost, familiar surface space.
Furthermore, once one reaches the Dou Zun Realm, one will be able to traverse the Void and open up a second layer of space through Spatial Passage.
Finally, only those at the level of Six-Star Dou Sheng or higher can create a third layer of space, namely the Chaos Space, based on the second layer!
This third layer of Chaos Space was generally created for battles between powerful individuals above the Six-Star Dou Sheng.
It's important to understand that once you reach the Dou Sheng Realm, your destructive power becomes extraordinary.
Therefore, battles between Dou Sheng) are generally fought in the Void or above the sky, unless the goal is to wipe out an entire sect.
Especially after reaching the Five-Star Dou Sheng, if they were to fight each other, given enough time, they could even completely destroy the ecosystem of the entire Dou Qi Continent!
This is also why the Gu Clan would step in to stipulate that those above the Five-Star Dou Sheng must not interfere in disputes below the Five-Star Dou Sheng.
At the level of Six-Star Dou Sheng, battles that erupt between them, even within the second layer of Void, can sometimes be breached, thus affecting the outermost space.
Therefore, for beings like Gu Yuan and Hun Tiandi, who are at the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint and Emperor Realm Soul, the second layer of the Void could no longer withstand the impact of their battle.
There's no need to look; it will definitely pierce through the Void!
After all, once you reach the Nine-Star Dou Saint realm, you can use your own Dou Qi to trigger the energy tides of heaven and earth!
Therefore, as long as neither of them intends to destroy the entire Dou Qi Continent, it is necessary for them to open up the Chaos Space for battle.
Seeing that the Hun Tiandi had already opened up the Chaos Space, Gu Yuan didn't hesitate and followed him in.
Without further ado, the two sides started fighting!
"Boom"
The battle between the two strongest experts on the Dou Qi Continent caused ripples throughout the entire Chaos Space.
The commotion it caused even affected the second layer of the Void!
On this day, countless Dou Venerable and Dou Sheng who were crossing the second layer of Void encountered a spatial storm that erupted inexplicably.
Some who used spaceships to traverse the Spatial Wormhole constructed by powerhouses above the Dou Venerable even experienced the destruction of their spaceships and the loss of their lives!
This prompted many factions that controlled Spatial Wormhole to urgently shut down their Spatial Wormhole!
They call it "repair"!
But in reality, they didn't know what had actually happened either.
Throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent, perhaps only those Dou Sheng Experts who have entered the second layer of the Void can vaguely sense something.
Such fluctuations could only originate from the Chaos Space of the third layer!
Of course, regardless of whether they have the ability to enter the third layer of Chaos Space, no one would rush to join the fun at this time.
After all, such a commotion is clearly not something an ordinary person could cause.
This is bad; they foolishly rushed in and were instantly killed by the aftershocks.
The battle between Gu Yuan and Hun Tiandi lasted for about three days.
In their final exchange of blows, they tacitly stopped fighting.
Neither side could gain the upper hand.
At this moment, Gu Yuan looked somewhat disheveled, with his black hair draped over his shoulders and a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
However, the Hun Tiandi was no better off. He could no longer maintain his refined demeanor. His white robes were torn in many places, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
"That's exhilarating! It's truly a thrilling feeling! Hahaha!"
This is the true inner thought of the Hun Tiandi.
Although he came to fight Gu Yuan with a specific purpose in mind, he genuinely enjoyed the process.
"Hun Tiandi, it seems you have indeed recovered to your peak. However, I hope you will not try to cause any more trouble, otherwise, I will definitely stop you!"
That's all I have to say. You'd better take care of yourself!
Gu Yuan's warning rang in the ears of the Hun Tiandi.
Although he did enjoy the fight, he would still issue the necessary warning to the Hun Tiandi.
Although the Hun Clan has been relatively quiet in recent years, that doesn't mean the Soul Hall hasn't made any moves!
He had a feeling that the Hun Tiandi was plotting something, but he couldn't figure it out at the moment, which was why he issued a warning.
"Heh, is that so? Gu Yuan, then try and stop me! Goodbye!"
Gu Yuan warned himself, but the Hun Tiandi didn't take it seriously.
Or rather, this was within his expectations!
Whether the other party can stop them is another matter.
Now that his objective had been achieved, it was time for him to leave.
Without waiting for Gu Yuan's reply, the Hun Tiandi left the Chaos Space.
Watching the Hun Tiandi's departing figure, Gu Yuan merely frowned, but did not stop him.
"What exactly is the Hun Tiandi's purpose? No! The Hun Tiandi has fully recovered from his injuries. Knowing his personality, he definitely won't just sit idly by. We must keep a closer eye on the Hun Clan!"
In a flash, Gu Yuan had already formed an idea.
However, Gu Yuan was unaware that this was precisely the Hun Tiandi's goal!
After all, if Gu Yuan hadn't been watching him, Nihility Devouring Flame's actions might have been discovered.
Now that Gu Yuan was focused on him, the Nihility Devouring Flame had no more scruples!
After returning to the Gu Realm, Gu Yuan informed all the Leadership Gu Clan about the Hun Tiandi's recovery and issued an order to monitor the Hun Clan!
No one objected to this.
This also means that Gu Yuan has fallen into the trap.
