The moment he saw the back of Judge, Lu Chen's reaction speed surpassed his thinking.
He stretched out his hands almost instinctively, one hand covering Wang Teng's mouth like an iron clamp as he almost screamed out in surprise, and the other hand pulled Yang Xiong's body tense instantly.
Immediately afterwards, his body flashed, like a ghost blending into the shadows, and he led the two of them quietly to hide behind the shadow of a huge stalagmite on the side that required several people to embrace.
<Black Tortoise Breath Concealment Art> The Dacheng realm was pushed to the extreme by him at this moment!
An invisible aura that simulated the coldness and death of the rock completely enveloped the three of them like a wave of water.
Lu Chen even separated a ray of pure Black Tortoise True Qi, which forcefully penetrated into the bodies of Yang Xiong and Wang Teng, suppressing their Qi and Blood fluctuations caused by extreme shock.
In an instant, the breath, heartbeat, and even body temperature of the three people were completely integrated with the surrounding environment.
It was as if they had turned into three real, lifeless stones.
Behind the shadow of the stalagmite, the three of them did not dare to take a breath.
The faces of Yang Xiong and Wang Teng were full of shock.
They stared at the scene in the distance through the gaps in the stalagmites.
They saw that the four Rebirth Hall believers in black were setting up a formation that was a hundred times more complicated than the Blood Sacrifice Array they had seen in the Blood Demon Spider valley before.
Countless strange runes circulated on the ground, and blood-colored light connected into lines, exuding a disgusting evil aura.
And in the center of the bloody altar, seven or eight warriors were tied up with black chains!
The warriors' clothes were torn, their breath was weak, and their bodies were covered with scars. They had obviously experienced a fierce battle.
"Yes... it's Chen Wei of the Chen Family! And...Zhang Qing under Si Li Zhao Banner Sergeant!"
Yang Xiong's pupils instantly shrank to the size of needle tips, and his eyes were about to burst. He recognized several of them. They were all the best among the younger generation of Nanling Prefecture who participated in Hidden Dragon Trial this time. Some of them were Aristocratic Clan's children who had had friendship with him!
They were all captured by the Rebirth Hall and used as sacrifices to open the seal!
At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
A bound Aristocratic Clan disciple, who didn't know what Secret Method was used secretly, suddenly broke free from the black chains on his body.
A strong desire for survival burst out in his eyes, and he roared, his whole body True Qi burning, turned into a stream of light, and fled desperately towards the other exit of the dome!
He is already at the middle stage of the Meridian Opening realm. At this moment, the burning life bursts out at an extremely fast speed!
However, Judge, who had always turned his back to everyone and looked up at the seal quietly, moved.
He didn't even look back.
He just faintly raised his right hand and shook it weakly towards the fleeing figure from a distance of several hundred feet.
There was no earth-shattering sound.
There are no flashy and dazzling moves.
There is not even a trace of energy fluctuation.
The figure of the Meridian Opening mid-level warrior who was trying his best to escape suddenly froze in mid-air, as if being held by an invisible big hand.
His face was instantly filled with extreme fear and unspeakable pain, and his facial features were distorted.
Then, under the horrified eyes of Yang Xiong and Wang Teng, his body, like a sand sculpture that had been weathered for hundreds of millions of years, silently turned into ashes inch by inch, starting from the outer layer of skin.
Flesh, flesh, bones, internal organs... and even his soul were completely wiped away by that invisible power, leaving not even a trace of residue behind.
A gust of wind blew by, and the ashes of the human figure were completely dispersed, as if this person had never existed in this world.
The visual and psychological impact of this scene is devastating.
Yang Xiong The hand holding the spear was shaking violently uncontrollably, and the tiger's mouth was even broken by itself.
Wang Teng's face was as pale as a ghost, cold sweat fell from his forehead like a stream, and his teeth were chattering crazily.
For the first time, they felt so intuitively and cruelly the gap between Meridian Opening, the peak level, and them.
That is not a quantitative difference at all, but a qualitative crushing.
Like a natural chasm, it cannot be crossed.
Hard?
It doesn't even count as being sent to death, it will just be wiped away at will like an ant being crushed to death.
The overwhelming anger and fighting spirit that had just been ignited in their hearts when their companions were captured were completely extinguished in front of this scene, turning into coldness and despair that penetrated their bones.
However, just when Yang Xiong and Wang Teng fell into deep despair, Lu Chen's eyes were terrifyingly cold.
He was not intimidated by the power of Judge.
On the contrary, under that extreme pressure, his brain was calmer than ever before and he was frantically analyzing everything in front of him.
His eyes glanced back and forth like lightning between the energy node of Blood Sacrifice Array, the positions of the four believers, the distance between Judge and the altar, the breath of life of the seven or eight sacrifices, and the slowly thinning Myriad Souls Cave seal in the center of the dome.
He quickly compared and deduced the information Soul Devour obtained from the memory of the incense owner with the scene in front of him.
Soon, he discovered a crucial flaw!
Although this Blood Sacrifice Array is extremely powerful and can weaken the seal of Myriad Souls Cave, it is also a huge shackle!
It tightly bound the five people in the formation, including the Judge, to the operation of the formation.
Judge seems casual, but in fact he must stand at the core of the formation and use his own profound cultivation to maintain the operation of the entire formation. He cannot easily leave the center of the altar!
Moreover, Lu Chen also noticed a detail that was ignored by Yang Xiong and Wang Teng.
Just now when Judge took action to kill the escapee, the energy fluctuations of the huge black sealed sphere on the dome showed an extremely weak, but indeed existing, disorder!
What does this mean?
This shows that there is some kind of essential conflict between the power of Judge and the sealing power of Myriad Souls Cave!
Every time he takes action, it will affect the seal, which will also affect his plan to open the seal!
He is not invincible, he is also limited!
At this moment, on the altar, a Rebirth Hall disciple respectfully reported to Judge, "Sir, Blood Sacrifice Array has reached the final stage! It only takes one more time to burn incense, and using all the Essence Blood souls of these eight warriors as a guide, the seal can be completely broken and the remaining souls of Demon Emperor can be welcomed back!"
A stick of incense!
Hearing these three words, Yang Xiong and Wang Teng were extremely anxious. They suddenly turned their heads and looked at Lu Chen, with questioning, pleading, and the last glimmer of hope in their eyes.
Lu Chen didn't look at them.
His eyes were still fixed on Judge and the bloody altar in the distance, and his aura was condensed to the extreme, as if he had completely merged with the stalagmites behind him.
Time passes by breath by breath.
Finally, just when Yang Xiong could hardly bear it anymore and was about to rush out and die with the other party, Lu Chen slowly turned his head.
In the dark shadow, his eyes were astonishingly bright, as if there were countless strategies intertwined and flowing in them, and finally converged into a crazy and bold plan.
In a cold and extremely confident voice that only three people could hear, he said word for word, "He is very strong, so strong that none of us can survive more than three breaths when faced alone."
"But..."
"He is not a god."
"One stick of incense is enough time."
"I have a plan, a plan... that will make us the ultimate winner."
