Chapter 799: The Cause of the Year
Chapter 799: The Cause of the Year
Deep in the Nether Mountains, the atmosphere was so oppressive that it made one feel breathless.
Seeing this, Lu Chen's heart tightened. He clearly sensed dozens of powerful auras spreading around him.
I guessed in my heart that it should be the vengeful spirits from the Ghost Emperor realm who came, and there were quite a few of them.
Faced with such a desperate situation, Lu Chen did not dare to hesitate for a moment, and his consciousness instantly established a connection with the origin of wind.
He continued to use the teleportation technique, and his figure rushed towards the distance like lightning.
But what shocked Lu Chen was that, just at the exit of Nether Valley,
Dozens of extremely powerful ghost emperors appeared.
They pounced on him like ghosts at an astonishing speed.
In a flash, this group of evil spirits successfully blocked Lu Chen's retreat, and it only took a breath of time.
The dozen or so ghost emperor-level vengeful spirits that were originally following Lu Chen also quickly caught up.
Then, they were like an airtight net, trapping Lu Chen tightly in the middle.
It is worth mentioning that this also includes Sister Li Shiman, who had met Lu Chen before.
Although Lu Chen was surrounded by enemies at this moment, he still maintained a calm and fearless expression on his face.
He looked fearlessly at the group of Ghost Emperor-level beings in front of him who were considered to be peerless powerful beings.
"Hmph, you little brat! How dare you kill so many of our men? Do you still think you can escape? I'm telling you, today is the day you die!"
Suddenly, a cold shout was heard. The person who spoke was an elderly man in a black robe.
The old man had an extremely sinister look on his face, and his eyes flashed with strong murderous intent, as if he could tear Lu Chen into countless pieces with just one look.
"Sister Shiman, please step aside first. It would be bad if I accidentally hurt you."
Lu Chen's eyes quickly swept around, and when his gaze fell on Li Shiman, a faint smile appeared on his face and he spoke softly.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the group of vengeful spirits with the strength of Ghost Emperor realm sneered with disdain.
They stared at Lu Chen with contempt, and some of them even mocked him openly:
"Humph! This kid is simply overestimating his own abilities. He actually thinks he can hurt us? It's just a foolish dream!"
Another vengeful spirit then echoed, "That's right, who does he think he is? He's just a brat, and he dares to speak so arrogantly!"
Another vengeful spirit taunted in a sarcastic tone:
"Haha, I want to see what this arrogant and ignorant guy is capable of. How dare he speak so brazenly!"
Faced with the ridicule and contempt of these vengeful spirits, Lu Chen did not get angry. He just stood there quietly, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile of confidence.
At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly opened his throat and shouted in a loud voice: "Come out!"
This shout was like a sudden thunder, instantly breaking the atmosphere of ridicule around.
Immediately afterwards, a thick white fog emerged from the void next to Lu Chen without any warning.
This mysterious white mist rolled and surged, and it seemed that some unknown existence was hidden in it.
As time passed, the white fog gradually became thinner, and a blurry figure stood in the mist.
Under Lu Chen's control, the white mist dissipated quickly at an astonishing speed, as if it had never appeared.
Finally, when all the resentful spirits saw the figure's face clearly,
They were all dumbfounded, stunned like wooden chickens, as if they were cast under a spell of immobilization, their bodies were so stiff that they were unable to move at all.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief and extreme horror, as if they had seen the most terrifying scene in the world.
Then, an irresistible fear surged into their hearts like a flood, making them tremble uncontrollably.
This fear has penetrated deep into their bones, as if it is devouring their souls.
The thrilling scene that happened thousands of years ago appeared in the minds of every vengeful spirit.
Back then, this man single-handedly swept across almost the entire Nether Valley with only a sharp sword in his hand.
As his sword slammed down, countless vengeful spirits as powerful as the Ghost Emperor level died one after another;
Even the Lord of the Ghost Saint Realm, who was so powerful and in charge of the Nether Valley, was not spared and eventually died tragically under his sword.
This is why they were able to surpass others and achieve the status of Ghost Emperor.
At this moment, isn’t the person standing in front of them the same person from that year?
Seeing this, Li Shiman looked at Lu Chen with gratitude, then quickly stepped back, not daring to delay for even a moment.
Upon seeing this, the other vengeful spirits also began to flee, fearing that if they left too late they would have no chance.
Ye Chunfeng had just been released from the Golden Pearl World by Lu Chen, and he had used despicable means to extract a trace of his soul as a threat.
Although I was angry and unwilling, I could do nothing but endure the humiliation.
As he raised his hand, a boundless, mysterious aura of Taoism surged from his body like a tide.
His fingers were like nimble swords, and with a slight wave, they released incomparably powerful sword energy.
This sword energy was like a raging wave, sweeping across the entire world. Wherever it passed, the wind and clouds changed, and the sun and moon lost their light.
At the same time, countless mysterious forces of law, like materialized ropes, rapidly gathered together, and in the blink of an eye, condensed into a giant sword shadow that was a thousand meters long.
This giant sword towers into the clouds, as if it were a divine weapon dropped from the sky, emitting a terrifying pressure. Its majestic momentum is enough to shake everything in the world.
"This... is this the strength of the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation? It's really terrifying."
Lu Chen, who had already retreated several hundred meters, looked at Ye Chunfeng's back and couldn't help but exclaimed in shock.
At about the same time, such a powerful force was seen by the top leaders of the five major forces.
Among them, Feng Tiancheng from the Wuwei Sword Sect looked down at the Netherworld Mountains with an incredible look on his face, and it was unknown what he was thinking in his deep eyes.
Countless monks who had not left were also shocked by this scene and stopped in their tracks to leave.
"Stop it, you're going to ruin this place."
It happened in a flash. Just as Ye Chunfeng was about to swing his sword, Lu Chen stopped him in time with a loud voice.
Ye Chunfeng was puzzled when he heard this, but he still retracted his sword.
Then, he looked at Lu Chen with cold eyes and said:
"Believe it or not, even if you have a hold on a trace of my soul, if I want to kill you, you won't have time to destroy my spirit."
When Lu Chen heard this, his heart suddenly tightened and he stared at Ye Chunfeng.
Lu Chen knew everything about Ye Chunfeng in the Golden Pearl World. He also knew that he had absorbed a soul and a spirit, and his strength had recovered to the early stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
But it was precisely because of this that Lu Chen wanted to extract a bit of his soul in order to force him to act as his thug.
I never thought that Ye Chunfeng would have such a big reaction after I gave the first order.
Then Lu Chen gave in and said:
"Senior, I have no choice but to do this. Please protect me for three days. I will return your soul to you."
"Humph……"
Ye Chunfeng just snorted coldly when he heard this, his face showing no emotion, and he stopped talking.
But Lu Chen knew that he had succeeded, at least Ye Chunfeng would not fight him to the death.
You know, as long as you destroy that trace of soul, Ye Chunfeng's spirit will definitely be damaged, and he may even die.
Just as Lu Chen was about to leave, several figures teleported and appeared not far away.
When one of them saw Ye Chunfeng, he was stunned for a moment, then said with a look of surprise:
"Brother! Are you...are you okay?"…………
