CHAPTER 1075: CHAPTER 26: GU SHEN’S PROPHECY (PART 3)

In the end, the "Domain Expansion" of Lord Vermilion Bird failed, completely blocked by Gu Shen’s "Pure Land"!

This also meant that Lord Vermilion Bird realized he couldn’t fully control the situation.

Power is the ultimate authority!

Under such circumstances, Lord Vermilion Bird knew that continuing to fight head-on would not benefit him... It wasn’t just Gu Shen he had to deal with, standing beside Gu Shen was another equally enigmatic "White Cat Mask Transcendent".

Chu Ling’s spiritual aura was truly immeasurable.

This was the main reason why Lord Vermilion Bird finally retreated.

He couldn’t afford to lose.

"If we really fight... even with Chu Ling and me together, we might not be able to win against him."

Gu Shen silently spoke in his mind.

The four Divine Envoys, Ten-star Transcendents of Upper City, should correspond to the strength of the eleventh layer of Deep Sea... Lord Vermilion Bird’s strength was probably not much different from Zhong Yuan, Living Fish, and others.

This guy has at least the strength of a North Continent captain!

"I need to accelerate the comprehension of the ’Chi Huo’ domain. If I can comprehend the complete domain of ’Chi Huo’, then I will be a Transcendent with two domains, a true ’Fourth-tier Expert’!"

Gu Shen took a deep breath.

Coming to Central Continent this time, he thought it would be easy... but in reality, he encountered many troubles.

Now, although he has the "Pure Land Domain" and has transcended three times, these methods are still not enough to face a true fourth-tier expert!

"I can’t rush, take it step by step... starting with the Domain Embryo."

Gu Shen felt that he had some insight from the recent clash with Lord Vermilion Bird.

Lord Vermilion Bird’s abilities were the same as his, both in fire!

During the collision, the domain Lord Vermilion Bird unleashed carried an extremely domineering invasion intent, almost engulfing him... This was the first time Gu Shen felt such a unique Domain Intent.

This time coming to Central Continent, Gu Shen met "Ian", fought "Xiao", and then clashed domains with "Lord Vermilion Bird". These small events accumulated a lot of "inspiration" for Chi Huo.

The path of Transcendent cultivation is pieced together by countless small inspirations.

He was already a little impatient to start his seclusion.

...

...

After leaving the building, Lord Vermilion Bird swiftly returned to the Source Tower.

He did not stay and immediately went to see the Prophet.

The words Gu Shen said made him uneasy... but the response from the Misty Sea after he stated his purpose made him even more uneasy.

"Lord Vermilion Bird, do you think what he said is true?"

Mr. Yan lifted his murky eyes, with a hint of a smile in them.

The air was filled with the familiar spiritual aura.

The moment Lord Vermilion Bird stepped into the Misty Sea, he knew that Cloud Tiger had just visited.

Was Cloud Tiger also here to divine this matter?

"Mr. Yan..." His expression darkened as he said, "I came to you for divination, not riddles."

"But, divination is riddles."

Mr. Yan laughed, "The hexagram cannot be calculated to the end, don’t you understand this principle?"

"..."

Lord Vermilion Bird fell silent.

But anyone could see that this silence stemmed from fear.

Seconds later, Mr. Yan looked at this "young Divine Envoy", whose fear had arisen from deep within, and smiled as he said, "I cannot see through Gu Shen’s fate, nor can I see through the fate of you four..."

With cold sweat dripping down his forehead, Lord Vermilion Bird said hoarsely, "So, Gu Shen was lying."

Mr. Yan only smiled and did not answer.

"Clang clang clang..."

The clatter of chains and shackles resounded as he extended his finger to point at his own chest.

This was his final answer.

Some things—

If you believe, then it’s true.

If you don’t believe, then it’s false.
