Chapter 300: A Delusional Mind
Chapter 300: A Delusional Mind
Upon hearing this, several Grandmasters from Da Qian revealed expressions of surprise.
They were all aware of the arrogance of the Wutong Mountain cultivators.
Unexpectedly, Tang Yuan, who was a disciple of Clearwind True Monarch, displayed such humility. Earlier, he mentioned that if he encountered the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign, he could rely on the treasure bestowed by his master to ensure his safety. Now that he had truly faced the lion, he claimed he could defeat it with one hand.
"Are you boasting here? Does your master know about this?"
The Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign crossed his arms and stood, not only showing no anger but also laughing.
Tang Yuan glanced at his right arm, and his voice carried an increasingly intense chill as he raised his eyebrows at the lion sovereign, "Want to try?"
As his words fell, three red lights suddenly shot out from his waist.
The size of a thumb, resembling lotus seeds, they were crystal clear, with flames dancing within.
The next moment, the lotus seeds entered his mouth.
With a crisp crunch, he viciously bit down, shattering it.
Instantly, Tang Yuan's hair danced wildly, like surging flames, and even his gaze turned several degrees fiercer.
As the remaining two lotus seeds entered his mouth, the skin beneath his snow-white robe suddenly cracked, and lava-like liquid gushed from the opening, turning his skin a blood-red hue.
The surrounding aura instantly became ferocious.
The terrifying temperature caused everything within sight to start charring.
Several Grandmasters from Da Qian, who were closest to Tang Yuan, even had to summon their Dao Infants to resist the overflow of his aura.
Tang Yuan indifferently looked at the lion sovereign and then curled his lips into a sinister smile.
He extended his hand and beckoned with his fingertips, "Come on."
"Hiss."
This arrogant attitude was a far cry from his previous calm demeanor in Monster Suppressing City.
Xu Wanwen summoned her Dao Infant and tightly gripped the sword hilt.
For the first time, she truly felt the gap between herself and a true Heaven's Talent.
The rolling waves of fire alone made it difficult for her to breathe.
Xu Wanwen subconsciously asked Shen Yi, who was at a lower cultivation realm, "With this treasure's support, can he defeat the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign?"
"..."
Shen Yi glanced at her, too lazy to even reply.
Indeed, the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign leisurely spat, "Are you delusional?"
Facing such a powerful aura,
The lion sovereign remained standing with his arms crossed, without the slightest reaction, and even his expression carried a hint of ridicule, "If I were to engage in a real battle with you, why bother with such a show of force, you fool."
"..."
The smile on Tang Yuan's face slowly froze.
The Grandmasters beside him were also stunned for a moment, and then their faces changed abruptly. The originally neat formation that protected Tang Yuan in the center scattered, and they flew off in all directions.
But it was too late.
Several iron chains suddenly shot out from the fake formation gap, wrapping around the legs of several people. Immediately, they coiled around their bodies like giant pythons, pulling them down forcefully!
"Take your time, I have plenty of patience."
The Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign said lightly to those behind him.
The tattered and emaciated old man in ragged clothes did not respond. His eyes were cloudy, neither angry nor upset, and he mechanically raised his palms.
As his fingertips twitched, the iron chains seemed to come alive, trembling in unison with his movements. Dense black fog engulfed the group.
Tang Yuan roared, and his flames intensified several times, colliding with the black fog and emitting an ear-piercing hissing sound.
After consuming the three lotus seeds, his aura was already on par with the Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign, yet he still found himself at a disadvantage.
"How many Heavenly Materials and Treasures would this consume?"
A Qing opened his mouth in astonishment. A typical Netherworld Dragon Lock Array wouldn't have this effect, capable of so forcefully suppressing a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator.
"They occupy the most abundant land and don't know how to use it... naturally, they live in extravagant luxury."
Xu Wanwen's eyes twitched, "Should we take this opportunity to leave, or should we go and help?"
"The Dragon Lock Array can only suppress, but it can't kill. Of course, we must wait until the final moment when the Demon Sovereign makes its move, and then take advantage of Tang Yuan's desperate struggle to achieve a fisherman's gain."
A Qing, having followed Shen Yi for some time, immediately responded and turned to the youth, "Is that right, Elder Brother Shen?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi glanced casually at A Qing.
He remembered the last time they entered the Immortal Cave, this maid would rush out to stop the Xiang family siblings. Now, where did she learn this?
He withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "Can you break this formation?"
A Qing was taken aback for a moment, then nodded affirmatively, "I can!"
Although she didn't know why it was different this time, Elder Brother Shen must have his reasons. When traveling, one shouldn't be too rigid; one must adapt to the situation.
"I'll do my best to protect you."
Shen Yi nodded, his words concise and clear.
"Good!"
A Qing waved her hand, and several dark stones were clenched between her fingers. Then, she shot them towards several positions!
The entire process was so fast that Xu Wanwen didn't have time to react before realizing that they had been exposed.
What the heck?
One dared to speak, and one dared to believe!
How could two Profound Yuan Masters possibly protect a frail Core Formation Cultivator in front of a ferocious Demon Sovereign? Even if the previous Divine Transformation Body Senior was included, it wouldn't be enough!
The ordinary-looking stones instantly landed.
In an instant, a surge of emotion finally appeared on the tattered old man's face, and his hoarse voice said, "Xu Family's Array-breaking Stones?"
Although they were called Array-breaking Stones, it didn't mean that throwing them out would automatically break the formation.
One needed to be extremely familiar with the formation, find the hidden array eye, and then it would take effect.
The black mist within the iron chains stagnated for a moment.
Tang Yuan finally got a chance to catch his breath. At this moment, the black mist had already covered his entire right shoulder and was showing signs of solidifying.
Seizing the opportunity, he unleashed another palm strike towards the Demon Sovereign and the old man.
Thick fire waves surged like a tsunami.
"Roar!"
The Golden-Eyed Lion Sovereign finally released the arm that had been hugging him and roughly lifted the old man, soaring a hundred meters high. Even with such a quick reaction, a layer of dark golden fur was scorched off.
It roared and looked into the distance.
What caught its eye was a figure in a flowing black robe, a handsome youth standing in mid-air. Beneath his black hair, a pair of clear eyes calmly observed the scene.
Shen Yi wasn't just good at sneak attacks.
This should be his first time standing before a Demon Sovereign in its prime.
It didn't seem as intimidating as he had imagined.
"..."
The Golden-Eyed Demon Sovereign released the old man and slowly extended its sharp claws.
The youth's calm posture made it unsure of the situation.
"Fellow Daoist, help me break the formation. Once Tang escapes this predicament, I swear by my master, Clearwind True Monarch, that I will slay this beast!"
Tang Yuan also noticed the additional figure in the distance.
Earlier, he had thought someone was up to no good, so he closely followed behind. He never expected that this person had guessed the deception here and had been protecting them along the way.
Feeling both grateful and ashamed, he hurriedly shouted out.
Several Profound Yuan Masters were already enveloped by the black mist, and upon hearing the commotion, they struggled frantically, emitting muffled sounds.
