Chapter 1780: Chapter 1470: Wasn’t He Dead???
After the Blood Demon Immortal King activated the Blood Moon Formation, it seemed that a series of oppressive forces appeared within that blood moon. For a moment, even the people from the Mysterious Moon Palace were affected by this pressure, their vision seemingly starting to distort as countless monsters with tentacles appeared before their eyes.
At this moment, the fears within the hearts of those mentally weak in the Mysterious Moon Palace were instantly magnified. They believed these monsters were real and began to attack the monsters in front of them. However, these monsters did not actually exist and were merely the other disciples of the Mysterious Moon Palace.
For a time, the disciples of the Mysterious Moon Palace began to slaughter each other.
Upon realizing this, Yun Yudie snorted coldly, and then a terrifying cold aura emanated from her. In a short moment, the entire Mysterious Moon Palace was frozen, and the disciples who were originally engaging in mutual slaughter were also frozen, unable to move.
Though this temporarily stopped the mutual harm among the disciples of the Mysterious Moon Palace, if it continued, even the Elders might be affected. Even Yun Yudie was beginning to see hallucinations before her eyes.
Lu Chen felt the oppressive force released by that blood moon and immediately took out the Immortal Slaying Sword. Gathering all the Immortal Aura in his body, he struck out with a sword.
Green Fall Cyan Dragon Roar!!!
A giant blood-red dragon flew directly towards the enormous red moon in the sky. Sensing the oppression of Lu Chen’s sword, the three Blood Demon Immortal King members’ faces changed drastically, realizing this sword strike was no weaker than an attack from an Immortal Venerate.
How can it be this powerful!
Originally, Lu Chen’s strength was not this formidable, but the Evil Qi around was too thick. After the oil lamps of the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture absorbed the Evil Qi from the air, it not only further suppressed the Evil Qi but also transformed a large amount of it into Lu Chen’s power, making him even mightier.
Lu Chen’s sword qi, transforming into a dragon, fiercely crashed into the blood moon in the sky, and immediately the space began to shatter like glass.
The Netherworld Immortal King shouted out, "No, the space lock is about to be broken!"
The Blood Demon Immortal King and his companions had to abandon maintaining the Blood Moon Formation to reinforce the space lock. If the space lock was broken, the people of the Mysterious Moon Palace wouldn’t have to wait for the formation they were constructing to fully form; they could directly use the original Transmission Array to escape the Mysterious Moon Palace.
Meanwhile.
Bihai Immortal City.
Seeing the empty Immortal City before them, the late-arriving Chiyan Immortal King and Lu Jing frowned. The Blood Eagle Hall initiated the attack before them, so the good things in the Mysterious Moon Palace might have already been plundered by the Blood Eagle Hall.
At this moment, the enormous blood moon in the sky caught the attention of Lu Jing and the Chiyan Immortal King.
The two were delighted, as it seemed like the Blood Eagle Hall and the Mysterious Moon Palace were still in fierce combat. The Mysterious Moon Palace hadn’t yet been defeated. If they rushed over now, they might still get a share of the spoils.
Thinking of this, Lu Jing and the Chiyan Immortal King immediately ordered the army to commence a full-scale attack.
Shortly thereafter, the warships of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty and the Chiyan Sect rose into the sky, surrounding the entire Mysterious Moon Palace. However, because the Evil Qi above the Mysterious Moon Palace was too thick, they dared not approach too closely, maintaining a considerable distance from the Mysterious Moon Palace with their warships.
Seeing the thick black energy in the sky, the Chiyan Immortal King discontentedly said to Guihai Immortal Monarch, "Special Envoy, the Blood Eagle Hall has released so much Evil Qi that we can’t get close. It’s clear they want to monopolize the treasures of the Mysterious Moon Palace."
Guihai Immortal Monarch naturally understood what the Chiyan Immortal King meant. The Chiyan Immortal King wanted the envoy to pressure the Blood Eagle Hall so that the Chiyan Sect could get closer to the Mysterious Moon Palace.
But Guihai Immortal Monarch was no fool. Their relationship with the Blood Eagle Hall wasn’t good to begin with, and if it weren’t for the higher-ups wanting to exterminate the Mysterious Moon Palace, they wouldn’t have chosen to collaborate with the Evil Immortal Sect of the Blood Eagle Hall.
This group of Evil Immortals was selfish and ruthless; he didn’t believe that in the face of immense benefits, these Evil Immortals would recognize him as the envoy.
If he rashly went in front of the Blood Eagle Hall’s Hall Masters to say something, he might instantly become a corpse.
Moreover, for him, as long as the Mysterious Moon Palace was destroyed, his mission would be complete. He didn’t care how many treasures the Blood Eagle Hall would seize from the Mysterious Moon Palace.
Guihai Immortal Monarch then said to the Chiyan Immortal King, "If you want treasures from the Mysterious Moon Palace, take them yourself. Don’t tell me."
Upon hearing Guihai Immortal Monarch’s words, the Chiyan Immortal King and Lu Jing immediately furrowed their brows. If even the special envoy from the Heavenly Splendor Hall didn’t dare to speak to the Blood Eagle Hall, why would they dare to rush in?
At this moment, the Chiyan Immortal King suddenly noticed the oil lamps in the sky frantically absorbing Evil Qi. Initially, they thought these oil lamps were also released by the Blood Eagle Hall, but now they see that the lamps probably have nothing to do with the Blood Eagle Hall.
At this moment, a loud dragon roar echoed in the sky, and in the next moment, they saw a blood-red giant dragon charge towards the blood moon in the sky.
The clash between the blood dragon and the blood moon resulted in a violent explosion, and in an instant, the Blood Moon Formation of the Blood Eagle Hall was broken, restoring some clarity to the sky.
However, the entire sky remained blood-red, though it was brighter than before. At this moment, Lu Jing stood dumbfounded on the warship’s deck, his pupils contracting sharply, and his mind went blank.
With the light becoming adequate, Lu Jing could also clearly see Lu Chen’s appearance.
Although it had been billions of years, Lu Jing still remembered what Lu Chen looked like, and moreover, he had recently read memories of people who had been to the Land of Chaos, so Lu Chen’s features were still familiar to him.
Lu Jing muttered to himself, "How... how is this possible..."
"Wasn’t he dead???!!!"
Feeling the Immortal King pressure emanating from Lu Chen, Lu Jing panicked.
Although he had eliminated all the Princes of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty who had the potential to become Immortal Emperor, even now, many people still didn’t acknowledge him. If the people of Tianxia Immortal Dynasty learned that Lu Chen was still alive and that his cultivation state remained in the Immortal King Realm, some might entertain other thoughts.
Thinking of this, Lu Jing quickly calmed his emotions. With the envoy from Heavenly Splendor Hall here, he couldn’t panic, nor did he need to. After all, the Heavenly Splendor Hall had also participated in the battlefield against Lu Chen back in the day, and they even sent an Immortal Venerate.
Therefore, the Heavenly Splendor Hall would never allow Lu Chen to be alive, let alone allow him to return to the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty to become the Immortal Emperor!
Yet, just as he thought this, another possibility popped into his mind. What if Lu Chen chose to join the Heavenly Splendor Hall?
He still remembered that the reason Heavenly Splendor Hall had sent an Immortal Venerate back then was mainly because Lu Chen refused to join them.
If Lu Chen, returning this time, was willing to join Heavenly Splendor Hall and willingly share some secrets of the Chaotic Sea, would they choose to spare Lu Chen and even support him in becoming the new Immortal Emperor of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty?
While Lu Jing was lost in thought, the Chiyan Immortal King and Guihai Immortal Monarch also noticed his abnormality.
Seeing the terrified expression on Lu Jing’s face, Guihai Immortal Monarch curiously asked, "What’s wrong?"
