"Gu Tianyi's potential far exceeds your imagination. If we allow him to grow stronger, it will be disastrous for our Gu family," the Ancient Tomb Elder solemnly warned.
After hearing these words, Gu Mu fell silent.
Gu Tianyi is a hidden danger. If Gu Tianyi were to obtain the inheritance of the Dragon God Holy King, he would inevitably threaten the Gu family in the future.
"You just said that Gu Tianyi's father was also a survivor from the ancient tomb?" Gu Yuanming suddenly asked again.
Gu Mu nodded immediately: "That's right, Gu Aotian is a survivor from the ancient tomb, but..."
"But what?" Gu Yuanming immediately pressed, not wanting to see a new crisis emerge for the Gu family.
“Gu Aotian has been trapped in the ancient tomb for a hundred years and only woke up last night. Moreover, there is a mysterious power remaining in his body that we cannot suppress at all.” Gu Mu said solemnly, “I estimate that he is not far from breaking through to the Spirit Venerable realm.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanming and the Ancient Tomb Elder exchanged glances, both seeing a hint of apprehension in each other's eyes.
They had lived for hundreds of years and had seen many powerful figures, but they had never encountered an opponent as terrifying as Gu Aotian.
“Keep a close eye on Gu Tianyi. I will inform the patriarch and send an eight-star Nirvana Realm expert to assist you. As soon as Gu Aotian appears, send a signal immediately. Once they arrive, they can take the opportunity to kill Gu Aotian,” Gu Yuanming said in a deep voice.
“Okay!” Gu Mu nodded and said, “I will definitely capture Gu Tianyi.”
"I hope everything goes well," the tomb elder sighed helplessly, gazing into the distance as if anticipating something.
Meanwhile, three hundred kilometers north of the desolate region, a man in a blue robe stood in the void, looking down at the earth below.
The man was none other than the tomb's caretaker, Gu Mu.
"The ancient tomb is much more lively than usual today." Gu Mu's lips curled into a faint smile.
The ancient tomb opens every half month, at which time a large number of Martial Emperor realm cultivators flood into the tomb. As the person in charge of the ancient tomb, Gu Mu is naturally qualified to mobilize the array power of the ancient tomb.
"call out!"
Just then, a sword light flashed, and Gu Mu's body trembled as he quickly dodged, a piece of his robe being torn.
"Who goes there!"
"You cowardly rat hiding your head and tail, get out here!"
Old Mu was furious and shouted coldly.
From the depths of the ancient tomb, a figure slowly stepped out.
When Gu Mu and the Ancient Tomb Elder saw this figure, their pupils contracted sharply and their hearts clenched violently.
Gu Aotian!
"How is that possible?"
"He had clearly been dead for decades, so how could he be resurrected!"
Ancient Shepherd and the Ancient Tomb Elder stood there dumbfounded, as if they had been stunned.
"Just two dogs, but this trip has been quite fruitful," Gu Aotian said casually.
Rumble.
The entire ancient tomb trembled violently, and magma erupted from deep underground, shooting into the sky.
Gu Aotian looked up and said calmly, "The formation set up inside the ancient tomb is truly remarkable. No wonder it was once one of the four great sects."
"You, weren't you dead?"
Gu Mu and the Ancient Tomb Elder stared wide-eyed at Gu Aotian in disbelief, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
Decades ago, Gu Aotian led the Gu family into an ancient tomb, and Gu Aotian was the first to suffer, dying on the spot.
"I died, but I came back to life."
Gu Aotian smiled calmly, his eyes revealing a hint of vicissitude and sorrow.
"I searched the ancient tomb for a long time but couldn't find any of the Dragon God King's relics. Later, I accidentally found a pill. After taking it, it miraculously restored my life essence and extended my lifespan."
"Not only that, there are many other treasures, including even fragments of the Dragon God Armor!"
At this point, Gu Aotian's emotions instantly surged, and he struck Gu Mu with a palm, unleashing a burst of violent power.
Caught off guard, Gu Mu quickly channeled his spiritual energy to defend himself.
Bang!
Gu Mu was sent flying back several feet, his chest tightened, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, his face as pale as paper.
Old Mu's face was filled with horror and shock.
Although he was only at the early stage of the seventh rank, his strength was vastly different from that of Gu Aotian.
With a single palm strike, Gu Aotian injured Gu Mu.
"How could this happen?" Gu Mu muttered to himself, his heart filled with shock and disbelief.
"Gu Mu, this is the opportunity for my Gu family to rise. You bunch of trash have no idea how powerful the Gu family truly is." Gu Aotian coldly glanced at Gu Mu and the Gu Tomb Elder, and said with a mocking smile, "Not only did I come back to life, but with the help of the fragments of the Dragon God Armor and the special environment of the Gu Tomb, my cultivation has advanced rapidly. Now I am at the Eight-Star Refining God realm, which is enough to suppress ants like you."
"You're calling us ants?"
Gu Mu glared at Gu Aotian with resentment.
"good."
Gu Aotian nodded calmly: "The Gu family was able to stand tall in the Northern Wilderness this time because of me, not because of you, Gu Mu. Your existence is a stain. If you are willing to submit to me, I can spare your life."
"Pah!" Gu Mu spat fiercely, "It's impossible for them to enslave our Ancient Tomb unless our Ancient Tomb is destroyed."
"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences." Gu Aotian snorted coldly and said, "Since that's the case, then don't blame me, Gu Aotian."
Whoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Aotian appeared beside Gu Mu in an instant, his right arm reaching out like an eagle's claw, aiming for Gu Mu's throat.
"Oops."
Feeling the icy, bone-chilling cold air approaching, Gu Mu was greatly alarmed.
"Buzzing".
