Chapter 1750: Chapter 1440: Lu Chen’s Bluff
Seeing the Blood Dragon before them, the assassins were immediately shocked.
Wasn’t the target supposed to be just an ordinary Heavenly Immortal???
This sword strike wasn’t something an ordinary Heavenly Immortal could have produced!
At this moment, Wei Pengtao said to the others, “Attack with all your might! Leave no room for mercy!”
As his words fell, everyone used their most powerful magic techniques. In the next moment, various spells were hurled at Lu Chen. Although Lu Chen’s sword strike had already far surpassed the strength of a Heavenly Immortal, when faced with several Golden Immortals attacking at once, his sword strike was quickly blocked.
Lu Chen glanced at the masked people in front of him. Although these assassins’ masks had the effect of preventing Divine Sense probing, Lu Chen didn’t need to use Divine Sense to identify someone.
Lu Chen immediately used the system to identify these people’s identities and discovered that they were all disciples of Heavenly Language Peak.
Lu Chen couldn’t help but suspect Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable again. Could it really be that Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable sent them to deal with him?
Just as Lu Chen was thinking this, Wei Pengtao attacked again, slashing towards Lu Chen.
Lu Chen immediately put away his sword. In the next moment, a Tai Chi Diagram appeared behind him.
As Wei Pengtao’s blade qi was about to touch Lu Chen, it suddenly vanished.
With the Heavenly Immortal Realm, Lu Chen could use the Taichu Infinite Scripture to withstand a full strike from an Immortal Monarch, let alone an attack from just a Golden Immortal.
Wei Pengtao was unwilling to give up, so he swung his blade again. However, after slashing more than a dozen times in a row, he still couldn’t injure Lu Chen.
Wei Pengtao couldn’t help but curse, “Damn it, is this really a Heavenly Immortal?”
At this moment, Lu Chen activated the Taichu Infinite Scripture. In an instant, the blade qi Wei Pengtao had slashed at him flew back towards Wei Pengtao and the others.
Seeing this, Wei Pengtao and the others’ expressions slightly changed, “Not good!”
Wei Pengtao and the others hurriedly dodged. After the blade qi passed, Wei Pengtao frowned deeply, “What kind of wicked Immortal Laws are these!”
With one glance, he saw that the blade qi released by Lu Chen was actually the same as the blade qi he had previously slashed, clearly indicating that the opponent had converted his attack into their own.
If the opponent could continuously convert his attacks, they might not be able to harm this guy at all.
However, Wei Pengtao quickly realized that the more heaven-defying the Immortal Law, the greater the Immortal’s consumption. This kind of Immortal Law that could completely convert a Golden Immortal’s attack should consume an even more terrifying amount of Immortal Aura. As long as they waited for this guy to exhaust his Immortal Aura, they could easily kill this guy.
However, this commotion would soon attract other people, so they had to finish quickly.
Wei Pengtao guessed that the more powerful the magic technique converted, the greater the opponent’s Immortal Aura consumption, so he immediately said to the people behind him, “Don’t hold back!”
As his words fell, Wei Pengtao gathered all his Immortal Aura.
In the next moment, a massive Golden Bell appeared above his head. Immediately after, he shouted, “Soul Suppressing Bell!!!”
As his words fell, waves of sound rushed towards Lu Chen, but as they were about to reach him, they vanished again.
Like Wei Pengtao, the other people’s spells also disappeared without a trace as they were about to reach Lu Chen.
Wei Pengtao did not stop his attacks, continuing to strike. However, despite their repeated full-power attacks, Lu Chen still stood firmly in place.
Wei Pengtao frowned, his face turning extremely ugly. How could a mere Heavenly Immortal possess such strength? They were all Golden Immortals, attacking with full force, yet unable to shake him?
At this moment, Lu Chen smiled and said, “You don’t have any more tricks, do you? In that case, it’s my turn?”
As his words fell, Lu Chen immediately activated the Tai Chi Diagram behind him. Subsequently, the magical phenomena used by Wei Pengtao and the others reappeared and locked onto them.
Wei Pengtao hurriedly took out various Magic Treasures to defend against the attacks. Although they blocked their own spells, they felt extremely frustrated.
Several Golden Immortals failed to assassinate a Heavenly Immortal and ended up being made a fool of by this Heavenly Immortal.
At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something and directly said to Wei Pengtao, “Senior Brother Wei Pengtao, Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable just transmitted to me, telling you all to go to her immediately.”
Upon hearing this, Wei Pengtao and the others were stunned, momentarily dumbfounded.
They feared being discovered and thus wore masks that blocked Divine Sense probing. Chen Lu absolutely couldn’t recognize them, and Chen Lu didn’t know them personally, which meant there was a possibility that what he said was true.
The Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable, as an Immortal Venerate, could perceive what was happening at Heavenly Language Peak with a single Divine Thought.
Although their masks could block most Immortals’ Divine Sense, they couldn’t block the Divine Thought of the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable.
However, as mere figures at Heavenly Language Peak, these Golden Immortals ought not to have their names known to Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable unless she was long aware of their actions.
At this thought, Wei Pengtao and the others broke out in a cold sweat.
It’s over now…
Seeing these people being stunned by his words, Lu Chen said, “If you don’t go, I can’t say what the consequences will be.”
Upon hearing this, Wei Pengtao and the others quickly came to their senses. Without any hesitation, they headed directly to the residence of Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable, the Heavenly Language Palace.
As for the thoughts of escaping, they did not entertain such ideas. With the strength of an Immortal Venerate, if they attempted to flee, their bodies would likely turn to blood mist before they could leave Heavenly Language Peak.
On the way to Heavenly Language Palace, someone nervously asked, “Why does the Peak Master want us there?”
“Could it be that she wants to kill us?”
Wei Pengtao replied, “If the Peak Master wanted to kill us, we would already be corpses. She probably wants to ask who the mastermind behind us is.”
Wei Pengtao added, “If we reveal the mastermind, we might still have a slim chance of survival.”
Saying this, Wei Pengtao felt tremendous regret. They should have never agreed to assassinate Chen Lu, whom they thought was just a servant of Xu Jingshu. They believed even if he died, Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable wouldn’t care, which led them to agree to Sky Eagle Peak’s request.
Soon, Wei Pengtao and the others arrived at Heavenly Language Palace. Just as they were about to enter, they were stopped by a young woman in green attire.
“What are you here for?”
The young woman in green was puzzled to see several Golden Immortals running to Heavenly Language Palace. Usually, disciples of Heavenly Language Peak wouldn’t come to this place.
Wei Pengtao said, “The Palace Master summoned us here.”
Hearing this, the young woman in green was taken aback. She hadn’t heard of Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable summoning anyone.
Regaining her composure, the young woman in green said, “Wait here, I’ll go in and report.”
Soon, the young woman in green entered the palace. At this moment, Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable was sitting cross-legged in the hall. Feeling someone enter, she opened her eyes.
“What is it?”
