A vicious glint flashed in Lu Chen's eyes. Summoning every last ounce of strength, he abruptly pulled the intact Shadow Council token from his robes and hurled it viciously at Netherfire Venerable!
At the same time, the newly formed Dragon Soul Mirror mark within his sea of consciousness blazed brilliantly. A pure pale cyan ripple surged toward Netherfire Venerable along with his sharp shout:
"The Master has issued an order! Netherfire, do you dare betray him?!"
Lu Chen's roar carried the spiritual pressure of the Dragon Soul Mirror mark. It was not strong, but Netherfire Venerable's mind had already wavered slightly because of that blood-red symbol. Then, an intact Council token suddenly flew toward him, and the majestic words "the Master's order" rang in his ears—
Multiple shocks piled atop one another!
For an exceedingly brief instant—not even a tenth of a breath—Netherfire Venerable's mind went blank and fell into chaos!
The Master? A token? Betrayal? Several thoughts tangled together in confusion.
The Yellow Springs Draw vortex under his control weakened drastically from that flicker of mental disorder. Both its suction force and pale flames visibly stalled and fluctuated!
And this was precisely the moment Lu Chen had been waiting for!
"System! Consume all remaining Demon Devil Lifespan—20 years! Instant burst! Objective: break free of the chains and launch a surprise attack on Shen Qiu!"
[Command confirmed. Demon Devil Lifespan to be consumed: 20 years. Commencing the extreme burst plan...]
His Demon Devil Lifespan was instantly emptied!
An incomparably violent power exploded from within Lu Chen's body! This was neither healing nor deduction, but the purest, most direct infusion and eruption of power!
Boom!
Of the dozens of dark green chains binding his body, seven or eight were forcibly snapped apart by that sudden eruption of brute force!
