Chapter 1464 Dark Vortex
Chapter 1464 Dark Vortex
Saint Nirvana took a deep breath, trying to calm his anger. He was well aware of these people's intentions. After a brief moment of contemplation, a plan formed in his mind. He then pointed at Lu Chen and said loudly:
"In that case, I thank you all. This young man is Lu Chen. He recently distinguished himself at the Epochal Divine Mountain, not only killing Xiao Dingshan, Lin Xuanqing, and Yun Ji Saint Emperor, among other Saint Emperors, from the Vajra Saint Sect."
"I also possess the Nine Luminaries Divine Spring, several high-grade divine veins, a small world, and the inheritance of the Youqiong clan. I believe you wouldn't refuse a map of the secret realm from the War of the Gods!"
As soon as these words were spoken, a murmur immediately arose from all around. The cultivators whispered among themselves, their eyes gleaming with greed and curiosity.
"What? This kid actually has so many treasures?" a young disciple from the Xuanming Holy Sect said in a low voice.
“The Nine Luminaries Divine Spring, that’s a legendary treasure!” exclaimed a female disciple from the Nine Heavens Holy Sword Sect standing nearby.
"There's also a map of the secret realm from the War of the Gods. If we could obtain this map, wouldn't we be able to find the path to a higher realm?" An old man from the Crimson Flame Holy Sect stroked his beard, his eyes gleaming with fervent light.
The Sage Moye sneered, "Whether it's true or false, this is a rare opportunity. Why don't we capture him first and then interrogate him slowly?"
Saint Luo Ning did not express her opinion directly, but simply nodded slightly, clearly showing that she was also very interested in the treasures on Lu Chen's body.
Dao Li Saint clenched his fists and looked at Lu Chen with a serious expression. Although Lu Chen had a grudge against the Vajra Saint Sect, he was not stupid. On the contrary, he was very shrewd. He thought to himself, "Why is that old bastard Nie Yin saying these things at this time? There must be something fishy about this. I might as well wait and see."
Faced with the crowd's discussion, Lu Chen felt a chill. He hadn't expected that the old man, Saint Nirvana, could attract everyone's attention to him with just a few words.
However, Lu Chen showed no fear whatsoever, and calmly said, "What? Are you going to blatantly rob me? You'd better think it over. The Holy Sound Pavilion is in its current state because it offended me. Do you major holy sects want to follow in the footsteps of the Holy Sound Pavilion?"
These words immediately caused an uproar. Everyone felt that Lu Chen was extremely arrogant and pointed fingers at him.
After the Saints Nirvana, Dao Power, and Wind Control communicated telepathically, the atmosphere became even more tense. Their gazes met in the air, as if they had reached some kind of consensus. Subsequently, they each ordered the dispatch of a Dao Transformation Realm expert.
"Xuanying, go!" Saint Nieyin nodded slightly, his voice carrying an undeniable authority. A black-robed cultivator beside him bowed slightly, then flashed and appeared on Lu Chen's right side like a ghost.
Daoist Saint waved his hand lightly, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, "Mingjue, go and find out what's really going on with that kid."
A middle-aged cultivator in a gray robe beside him nodded, moved lightly, and landed silently in front of Lu Chen as if stepping on empty air.
The Wind-Riding Saint snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, a gentle breeze swept by, and a swordsman in green robes stood gracefully to Lu Chen's left like a willow leaf swaying in the wind. "Sword Wu, don't let this brat get away."
Finally, Saint Luo Ning nodded slightly and gave a telepathic command: "Youlan, remember that your first priority is to protect yourself."
At this moment, the woman in white beside her nodded gracefully, and then her figure flashed, landing lightly behind Lu Chen.
The four figures quickly surrounded Lu Chen, and at the same time, their spatial domains rapidly sealed off the surroundings to prevent Lu Chen from escaping.
The powerful auras intertwined, creating a strong sense of oppression that made the surrounding air feel heavy.
Lu Chen sensed the tense atmosphere surrounding him and became secretly vigilant. However, he did not show the slightest panic; instead, a cold smile curled at the corner of his lips.
"It seems you're determined to make trouble for me," Lu Chen said calmly and composedly.
The Black Emperor's robes fluttered in the wind, his eyes flashing with a cold light. "Boy, if you know what's good for you, hand over the item, and maybe I'll spare your life."
Emperor Mingjue snorted coldly and said, "It is said that your strength is not bad. Today, I will settle old scores with you."
Sword Saint Emperor, wielding a longsword, his eyes sharp as knives, said, "Enough with the nonsense, attack!"
The Holy Emperor Youlan simply stood there quietly, her presence seemingly blending into the world, giving people a sense of tranquility yet danger. Upon hearing this, she took the initiative to attack without hesitation.
She lightly raised her jade-like hand, and a beam of emerald light shot out from her fingertips, swiftly piercing through the void and striking Lu Chen directly.
Lu Chen's expression hardened upon seeing this. He hadn't expected that this seemingly delicate and frail woman would be so ruthless. Indeed, there were no ordinary people in the Dao Transformation Realm.
Before he could think any further, sensing the powerful force of the law, Lu Chen had a thought, and a huge black rock appeared out of thin air in front of him.
With a deafening roar, the emerald light collided violently with the black stone, unleashing visible ripples that caused the surrounding space to tremble slightly.
Immediately following, Xuan Ying Saint Emperor was not to be outdone. He quickly formed hand seals, and dark runes appeared out of thin air, converging into a huge black vortex that swept towards Lu Chen.
Lu Chen's divine sense was locked on the vortex formed by the black runes, his gaze as calm as ice.
In that instant, Lu Chen felt a powerful suction force trying to drag him into the endless darkness.
In the moment of crisis, Lu Chen used his divine sense to control the black stone, sending it hurtling towards the vortex like an arrow released from a bow.
When the black stone struck the vortex, the entire space seemed to be torn apart, and waves of violent energy spread outward from the point of impact.
The scene was like a meteor hitting a meteorite in the void, instantly bursting with dazzling light and deafening roar.
The black stone and the shockwave generated at the center of the vortex formed a huge energy sphere, filled with flashing lightning and rotating rune fragments.
These rune fragments did not simply shatter and dissipate, but rather recombine and transform, forming tiny yet powerful array structures within the energy sphere.
They constantly attacked and merged with each other, releasing wave after wave of powerful energy shocks. Each shock exuded a terrifying aura, enough to make any cultivator tremble with fear.
In the blink of an eye, the once peaceful space began to tremble violently, cracks appeared on the ground, and dark clouds filled the sky with lightning.
Some nearby mountain peaks were no match for this force and were reduced to dust; rivers were also evaporated into water vapor, forming patches of white mist that enveloped the surrounding area.
And all of this happened in just a few breaths.
Upon seeing this, everyone's expression changed drastically. The Mysterious Shadow Saint Emperor exclaimed in shock, "How is this possible! My Black Nether Vortex can't even suppress a single stone?"
