Some people speculated that these old seniors received benefits from Gu Zhi, so they defended Gu Zhi so much.

But there are also people who see clearly and guess the real reason——

Those righteous monks who defended Gu Zhi did so not because they had received benefits from Gu Zhi, but because they were frightened by Gu Zhi.

The Cang Gu Divine Dynasty is already the strongest among all the righteous forces in the Southern Wilderness!

Most of the power of the Cang Gu Divine Dynasty is concentrated in the imperial capital.

What's the result?

The ancient imperial capital of Canggu was easily razed to the ground by Gu Zhi!

Not to mention the ferocity of the Demon Sect cultivators like Ye Qinghan.

Let’s just talk about Gu Zhi!

With a slap, he blew up the God King Cangji, who was also at the third level of tribulation, and with a punch, he blew up the old antique Cangjue, who was at the foundation level and in the ascension period. Even when he was besieged by three immortal kings at the ascension period, he could calmly fight back and kill all three of them.

The strength displayed by Gu Zhi is truly terrifying!

Originally, people only thought that after Gu Zhi broke through to the third level of tribulation, he could only act recklessly in a narrow range, because if he encountered an old antique of the foundation level in the ascension period, he would still be frustrated.

But Gu Zhi slapped them in the face with his actual actions and brilliant achievements!

An Ascending Immortal Lord? A Heritage-level antique? They were nothing but ants in front of Gu Zhi!

How could those righteous cultivators in the Southern Wilderness not be afraid of this?

After killing his way through the imperial capital of the Cang Gu Divine Dynasty, Gu Zhi headed non-stop towards the Qingxu Holy Land.

It can be predicted that the Qingxu Holy Land will not be able to stop Gu Zhi.

So after killing his way through the Qingxu Holy Land, which Taoist sect will Gu Zhi target?

All these famous strong men in the Southern Wilderness are in danger, afraid of being targeted by Gu Zhi!

So they tried their best to speak well of Gu Zhi, trying to turn black into white, hoping that Gu Zhi would show mercy and let them go.

Zhongzhou.

At the Qingming Immortal Banquet.

The express letter from the Southern Wilderness was like a huge rock that caused a thousand waves.

"What?!"

When the ancient god Canglan learned that the imperial capital had been slaughtered and saw the scene of rivers of blood and mountains of corpses, he suddenly felt as if the sky had fallen.

He just brought the prince to attend the Qingming Immortal Banquet, why...

The home is gone!

Canglan felt dizzy and couldn't even stand steadily.

At this time, his son, Cang Xuan, the crown prince of the Cang Gu Divine Dynasty, had just finished a fierce battle and successfully won. He ran towards him excitedly:

"Father, I won! I think I can shine at the Qingming Immortal Banquet this time. When we get back, we will go to pay our respects to our ancestors and make them happy!"

Canglan almost cried when he heard this:

"Son, our ancestors...are all dead!"

"Our royal family was destroyed, and our ancestors' graves were dug up!"

Cang Xuan: ???

Canglan: ...

People's sorrows and joys are not shared.

Canglan and Cangxuan, father and son, embraced each other and burst into tears, but the others at the Qingming Immortal Banquet were discussing heatedly:

"This Gu Zhi... is too outrageous, isn't he?"

"Killing four Ascension-stage old antiques in a row? Is this true?"

"It's too unrealistic. Isn't it because those Ascending Stage cultivators in the Canggu Divine Dynasty are so lame?"

Canglan:???

Cang Xuan: ???

No, my ancestors are all dead, why should I be questioned by you?

The dead are the greatest, do you understand?

You people from Zhongzhou are so uncultured!

Facing the angry gazes of Canglan and Cangxuan, these experts apologized and then continued:

"I feel that Gu Zhi is too strong. He's already reached the third level of Tribulation before he's even 20 years old, and he's almost crossed an entire realm. He's even defeated a veteran of the Ascension Stage. This kind of record is too dazzling, breaking through the long history of Qingming Daozhou. It's unprecedented!"

"Is there still anyone who doubts that Gu Zhi is the most powerful genius in the history of Qingming Daozhou?"

"I think the dust has settled. Gu Zhi is a genius who has never been seen before and will never be seen again. This is the fact."

"Compared to Gu Zhi, the duel between the geniuses at the Qingming Immortal Banquet seemed like a joke..."

"Those legendary Zhongzhou prodigies are certainly powerful, and they displayed terrifying dominance at the Qingming Immortal Banquet, but they were still facing powerful peers after all. And what about Gu Zhi? He's already competing against a veteran antique of the foundation level!"

"Correction, it's not a fight, it's a beating!"

“…”

At the Qingming Fairy Banquet, several legendary Zhongzhou geniuses were still very calm.

They each defeated their opponents easily, and when they heard people's praise, they were actually calm inside, because they had heard too much such praise, and the opponents they defeated were not strong, so they did not have any sense of accomplishment.

But now, when they heard that the people who originally praised them started to praise Gu Zhi and even used Gu Zhi to step on them, they immediately lost their composure.

However, they were no longer calm and opened and closed their mouths several times, but they could not say a word.

Because those who were speaking had nothing wrong with what they said!

Can they take on four people at once like Gu Zhi and successfully defeat four old antiques of the foundation level?

They are very proud, but they also know very well that they cannot create a miracle like Gu Zhi!

them……

Indeed, he is not as good as Gu Zhi.

And the gap is not a little bit!

The older generation of powerful men from the five major families and the seven sacred places turned pale with anger.

They put in a lot of effort, holding the Qingming Fairy Banquet in advance and lowering their posture to welcome geniuses from all over the place, just to create momentum and prove that the legendary geniuses in Zhongzhou are stronger than Gu Zhi.

It just so happened that Gu Zhi didn't dare to attend the Qingming Immortal Banquet, so their goal was achieved. Before the Qingming Immortal Banquet began, many people had already said that Gu Zhi was actually nothing special, not worthy of his reputation, and could not compare to those legendary geniuses at all.

However……

Gu Zhi didn't even have to come to Zhongzhou and attend the Qingming Fairy Banquet, which would have slapped them in the face!

Moreover, the slap that Gu Zhi gave them was so fierce that it almost broke their faces!

The Qingming Fairy Banquet is now in chaos. Some people no longer want to participate and want to withdraw directly.

"What's the value of the Qingming Immortal Banquet?"

"The Qingming Immortal Banquet, which is said to gather the world's most powerful geniuses, ended up not even inviting Gu Zhi. It's a bit ridiculous!"

"The previous Qingming Immortal Banquet may have been full of gold, but this Qingming Immortal Banquet... I can only say that those who understand will understand!"

Hearing these discussions, the old guys from the five major families and the seven major holy places all vomited blood.

What does it mean that the previous Qingming Fairy Banquet "might" be of great value?

Indeed, Gu Zhi's killing spree through the ancient imperial capital proved that this Qingming Fairy Banquet was indeed not of sufficient value.

But the previous Qingming Fairy Banquet was of great value, there is no doubt about it!

But now, it is also being questioned!

These old guys' faces turned green.

Gu Zhi didn't come and never showed up in Zhongzhou, but he still easily disrupted the situation and made their painstaking efforts a joke.

These old guys were filled with anger, but they didn't know who to vent it on. They couldn't just cancel the Qingming Fairy Banquet and then rush to the Southern Wilderness to vent their anger on Gu Zhi. That would be too humiliating.

at the same time.

Northern Frontier.

Outside Yunqi City.

A figure walked out from the void.
