Xiong Yan and Lang Feng sneered, riding their massive mounts as they swiftly flew away. Their cold eyes swept back once.
"This Yun Luoying, a lowly race, wants to be our mistress? What a pipe dream!"
"Don't say it. The Prince wants to take her as a concubine, and it's not for us to object."
"Don't worry, with the Prince's personality, he'll quickly lose interest in her. By then, this woman might be gifted to us!"
"That's true. It would be nice to have some fun with this beauty. This woman thinks she's clever, believing she can climb the dragon and cling to the phoenix, but in reality, she's just a plaything. However, let's find that Lu Chen first!"
"Lu Chen has stirred up so much trouble in the Netherworld, he'd never expect us to arrive ahead of time. I can't wait to see his panicked and shocked face."
"Hahaha..."
The two burst into laughter.
Their massive mounts carried them, charging into the distance under the panicked gazes of countless Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect disciples.
Up to this moment.
Many disciples of the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect still didn't know what had happened.
Just as they had flown out for dozens of miles, suddenly.
Swish!
An invisible, immense Sword Intent surged forth like a vast net, covering the sky and earth, descending upon Xiong Yan and Lang Feng. Their expressions changed.
The giant beasts beneath them immediately sensed danger, letting out low roars.
"Sword Intent!"
"No, this is a sword formation! Who is it?"
They roared, the armor on their bodies and mounts emitting divine light.
Fine runes suddenly rose into the air.
They formed a huge shield, firmly covering their bodies.
With a boom, it firmly blocked the pressure of this invisible Sword Intent.
But this Sword Intent was too dense.
Strands of it, like a spring breeze, permeated everywhere, penetrating all things. The runes on their bodies quickly began to collapse.
They roared and immediately activated the battle spears in their hands, unleashing endless killing intent and shooting divine light towards the sky, attempting to shatter the area above and break out.
But the terrifying sword formation was boundless, rapidly contracting, like an invisible hand of Sword Qi covering them.
The divine light they emitted collapsed and disintegrated almost as soon as it emerged.
The two felt trapped in an invisible prison of Sword Qi, unable to break free!
"Who is it? Get out!"
"Who are you? Who exactly are you?"
The two struggled in the sword formation, filled with shock and anger.
Without hesitation, they quickly threw out some of the treasures they carried. Then, under their control, these treasures detonated.
Boom, boom, boom, boom...
Amidst a series of terrifying sounds, they finally managed to blast open a gap in the blockade.
The two urged their mounts and, in the nick of time, rushed out of the gap, looking extremely disheveled and filled with rage.
But soon, their pupils contracted as they looked forward.
Not far from them.
On a mountain peak.
A figure had already appeared, waiting for a long time.
Black clothes, black robe, black hair.
A black blade hung at his waist.
His face was delicate and very young, younger than their Prince.
But his aura was incredibly strange.
It exuded a sense of intense crisis that even they could feel.
It was like an invisible Sky Sword, or a divine blade ready to be unsheathed at any moment.
"Lu Chen!"
Xiong Yan's eyes shot out killing intent as he roared.
Lu Chen's appearance was now known to almost everyone outside the Star Chain.
"You wretched beasts, daring to ambush us!"
Lang Feng's tone was also icy.
"Good, good, good! You've saved us a lot of trouble. Lu Chen, kneel down and surrender immediately. Offer your soul origin and pledge allegiance to my master, and you can spare your life. My master will bestow upon you supreme divine techniques. When the world is unsealed in the future, you will also gain great honor. It won't be a problem even to illuminate the starry sky!"
Xiong Yan immediately said coldly.
"They really think highly of me then."
Lu Chen's tone was indifferent, his robes fluttering as he said, "What if I refuse?"
"You dare refuse!"
Lang Feng, standing to the side, said menacingly, "To dare refuse is to court death. Your entire family will die, your friends will die, everyone connected to you will die, no one will survive!"
"But I want you all to die!"
Lu Chen looked at the two with icy eyes.
"Why waste so much time talking to them? Just kill them first!"
From the side, Li Wangshu also stepped out, a sneer on his face.
He had already reached the limit of this world, nearing Demigod status, and his confidence was soaring.
Even if Lu Chen hadn't made a move, he wanted to rush over and test the two of them himself.
"That's true."
Lu Chen nodded gently, "Then let's kill them all!"
"Courting death!"
"Destroy him!"
Xiong Yan and Lang Feng's eyes turned cold. With a boom, they activated their mounts and swiftly charged towards Lu Chen, their killing intent surging.
The giant beasts beneath them let out roars, their eyes filled with cruelty.
Even earlier, they could no longer bear it, wishing they could devour Lu Chen immediately and then go on a rampage through this world.
The moment the two attacked, the scene became earth-shattering.
As expected of powerhouses from the Supreme Ancient Dynasty.
Their understanding of laws and killing intent far surpassed ordinary comprehension.
The war spears in their hands emitted brilliant blood-red light, their killing intent reaching the heavens, as if they had locked onto one's soul.
Lu Chen's gaze was cold, and he didn't hesitate.
He gripped the hilt of his blade with his right hand and unleashed his full power from the start.
Clang!
A terrifying, solemn and murderous blade light was drawn from his waist. It appeared like a black demonic sun, its light distorting, emitting a terrifying and eerie glow that swept across.
Puchi!
After one strike, the Black Saber was sheathed again.
The two powerful knights abruptly stopped, their eyes filled with terror, motionless. It was as if they had just witnessed something incredibly bizarre. Then, their hands trembled as they struggled to reach for their own heads.
Puchi! Puchi!
Two fine heads rolled to the ground like balls, falling with a thud.
Soon, two Golden Bodies flew out from their heads, utterly terrified, fleeing towards the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect without regard for anything else.
Their mounts, even more terrified, bolted and followed them in a mad dash.
"It seems my blade techniques are still far, far inferior to sword techniques..."
Lu Chen muttered to himself.
He had thought this one strike would instantly obliterate them.
But it only severed their physical bodies, allowing their Golden Bodies to survive.
If he had used his sword techniques, they would have had no chance of survival.
Soon, Lu Chen quickly pursued them.
Li Wangshu intercepted them immediately.
"Get back!"
Sword light descended, like stars, fiercely striking down at the two Golden Bodies and their mounts.
"No!"
"Lu Chen, do you know who we are?"
Bang bang bang bang!
Lu Chen's sword light struck from behind in an instant, piercing directly through their Golden Bodies, along with the two terrified savage beasts, shattering them.
[...Merit Points +!]
A divine light flashed nearby.
Qiqi flew over with a look of surprise, looking down at the two rapidly falling savage beasts, and mused, "I think I recognize them."
"You recognize them?"
Lu Chen looked at Qiqi suspiciously.
"Mm, I can't say for sure, I just feel like they're very familiar."
Qiqi's childish voice sounded, her brow furrowed. "A lot of the information Mother left me is vague."
"So, in your mind, are they enemies or friends?"
Lu Chen asked.
"Bad guys, they're all bad guys!"
Qiqi said without hesitation.
"Then that's fine."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "To deal with bad guys, we only have one path, and that's to kick their asses!"
"Right, kick their asses!"
Li Wangshu also burst into laughter.
They flew directly towards the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect.
Deep within the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Sect.
The Sect Leader was deathly cold all over.
Her entire body was completely restrained, like a puppet, unable to move at all.
Her heart was filled with shock, anger, shame, despair, and regret...
All sorts of emotions intertwined.
If she had known what kind of person the Prince of the Supreme Ancient Dynasty was, she would never have cooperated with him.
But now, everything was ruined.
"Luoying, dedicate yourself to me, and I won't treat you poorly."
The tall Prince spoke in a gentle, yet undeniably commanding tone, as if accustomed to high positions, gazing at the perfect woman he had placed on the jade bed.
"You are different from my other women. You know how to refuse. The more you resist, the more I will cherish you. Don't worry, I won't go back on the conditions I promised you earlier."
Prince Chu Yuntian's gaze was deep as his fair fingers slowly traced Yun Luoying's face. "For now, just serve me quietly."
A pair of slender hands reached for the Sect Leader's body, beginning to undress her.
The Sect Leader's heart was filled with extreme shock and anger.
Outside.
Dozens of knights, with cold expressions, sat astride their mounts, guarding the surroundings in layers.
From time to time, they would cast disdainful glances at the disciples in the distance.
As if instinctively viewing them as ants or air.
Some even turned their heads to look at the room behind them, their eyes filled with heat.
According to the Prince's usual tradition, women he had enjoyed would soon be bestowed upon them.
They wondered if it would be the same this time.
This Yun Luoying was truly an unparalleled beauty.
"Judging by the time, Xiong Yan and Lang Feng should have captured that Lu Chen by now, right?"
One of the knights said with a smile.
"I think so, it's a task that can be accomplished with a single hand, it won't take much time!"
Another knight chuckled.
"This Lu Chen has a ruthless personality and his methods are not weak. He caused quite a stir in the Netherworld repeatedly, but unfortunately, in front of us, he is nothing."
The third knight said indifferently.
"I'm really eager to see this Lu Chen. It's quite something for such a figure to appear in a declining world."
The first knight from before let out a light laugh. "Perhaps he holds some secrets."
"There must be secrets. Without secrets, he wouldn't have been able to grow to this extent on his own!"
Another knight said coldly.
"So, will Xiong Yan and Lang Feng benefit from this as well?"
The knights around them frowned.
"Don't worry, there are still many secrets in this world. We are the first wave to descend, and the opportunities are endless, we can't possibly find them all."
The first knight from before smiled again. "This world was once extremely glorious, even surpassing our own dynasty. Even a little bit left behind is enough for us to feast on!"
"That's true!"
Those beside him laughed again.
Pfft!
Suddenly, the first knight, who had been laughing just moments before, had his entire body split in two without warning.
Great clouds of blood mist splattered outwards.
Terrifying Sword Qi destroyed his Golden Body and soul completely.
He didn't even have a chance to escape.
The others' expressions changed, and they quickly turned back.
Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft...
Following him, the second, third, and fourth... one after another, they were swiftly bisected.
It was as if a shadowy god of death was rapidly charging towards them.
All of them died gruesomely on the spot within a single exchange.
Terrifying, invisible Sword Intent made everyone's hair stand on end.
"Enemy attack!"
"Quick, set up the formation!"
The remaining knights roared.
One by one, brilliant divine light erupted from their bodies, burning fiercely and rapidly converging. A powerful divine force burst forth from around them.
The space in all directions seemed to be suddenly sealed.
Lu Chen, who had been hidden in the void and rapidly harvesting souls, was forcibly exposed by this divine power. He couldn't help but frown.
"Lu Chen!"
The many knights' eyes widened as they roared in anger.
This person dared to show himself?
And he killed so many of them?
It was like a dream.
An ant daring to defy the heavens?
Suddenly, someone took out a strange small drum and struck it down with a boom, causing the surrounding mountain peaks to explode.
This was a top-tier magical artifact, capable of killing Demigods even on the Outer Realm Battlefield.
Especially with the amplification of their Great Array, its power was doubled.
At this moment, he frantically beat the small drum in his hand, its boom boom echoing.
Divine light erupted from the start, energy surging and shattering space.
After an unknown number of strikes, his body finally stopped.
"Is he dead? Turned into blood mist?"
The many knights scanned the area before them.
Even a Demigod couldn't escape an attack of this magnitude.
But suddenly!
The knights' scalps tingled, and they cried out in alarm.
"He's fine!"
"How is that possible!"
"Lu Chen is actually fine!"
The many knights quickly unleashed their divine light, pushing their Great Array to its limit.
The person holding the divine drum beat it desperately, boom boom echoing, countless sound waves crisscrossing the air.
Lu Chen leaped up without hesitation. The Hell Demon Sword was drawn, coiling with terrifying baleful energy, like an ancient demon god reawakening.
Pfft!
Boom, boom, boom, boom...
With a single sword strike, the layer of protective divine light around the knights' bodies began to shatter rapidly like an eggshell. All defenses, all obstructions, were blown apart.
The person holding the divine drum revealed a look of horror, feeling himself locked onto by an supreme killing intent.
"No!"
Pfft!
His entire body exploded on the spot, turning into blazing blood light and dissipating completely.
Lu Chen swung the Hell Demon Sword, striking rapidly here.
He had come here to harvest.
Naturally, he chose the path of least resistance.
Bang bang bang bang...
"Ah!"
Screams echoed endlessly as lines of Merit Points rapidly appeared.
All the knights were filled with dread.
This Lu Chen's strength was not right.
Even with the Hell Demon Sword's assistance, his own power shouldn't have been able to block their divine drums.
The divine drums attacked the soul and the physical body, capable of penetrating most defenses.
Yet, Lu Chen had endured them!
This was a Holy Son-level physique!
A declining world actually produced a Holy Son-level physique?
"Prince, save me! The enemy's strength is abnormal!"
Puff puff puff puff...
"Ah!"
Knights were being swiftly annihilated.
