Chapter 853: Danzong's Finger, Seven Rhinos Retreat
Chapter 853: Danzong's Finger, Seven Rhinos Retreat
The Four Great Demon Emperors, three dead and one surrenders!
Luo Chen sat quietly in the void, calming his agitated Falu.
The Golden Tiger Emperor Butcher crawled nearby, returning Luo Chen's arms to his body, reattaching them.
Perhaps he was still a bit unaccustomed, but it was undoubtedly more convenient than slowly regrowing them.
Emperor Butcher gazed at the white-robed man within arm's reach, his eyes flickering uncertainly, and his nostrils constantly exhaled hot air.
With his experience, he naturally could tell that Luo Chen had expended a significant amount of Falu, far from the nonchalant demeanor he had displayed earlier.
Breaking the Nine Chapter Bone Destruction Formation with a sword, simultaneously controlling a treasure cauldron and five sword pills, one could imagine the terrifying consumption of Falu such actions would require.
Especially in battle, Luo Chen did not hold back, freely displaying various powerful spells and techniques.
As such, it was possible that Luo Chen had already exhausted his Falu, appearing strong on the outside but weak within, which would be the perfect opportunity for a counterattack! However, this thought had barely flashed across his mind when it was forcefully suppressed by Emperor Butcher.
Just now!
He had already given up his Soul Blood and had been placed under a Soul Restriction by Luo Chen!
As long as Luo Chen wished it, a single thought could destroy his soul, preventing him from reentering the cycle of reincarnation.
Subconsciously, Emperor Butcher felt a twinge of regret.
If he had taken the opportunity to escape while Luo Chen was releasing his flying sword and attacking Lu Changqing, it would have been ideal.
But the opportunity was fleeting, and his indecisiveness led to his eventual surrender.
A faint voice sounded.
"In your name, order the nearby demons to surrender!"
"This..." Emperor Butcher hesitated.
Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes, coldly staring at him.
Emperor Butcher gritted his teeth, hardened his scalp, and flew down.
He was indeed a Fourth Stage Demon Emperor, and he also held the noble status of an Ancient Demon's son.
But this battle was too humiliating. Now, he had to go and persuade the demons he had brought to surrender, even though he had already accepted becoming Luo Chen's mount. Still, he felt ashamed to speak of it.
Watching Emperor Butcher's departing figure, Luo Chen coldly snorted.
This demon, despite his high realm, was not worth a single strike! A Fourth Stage Mid-stage Demon Emperor could easily rival a Mid-stage Yuanying cultivator from the human race.
But the Mid-stage Yuanying cultivators Luo Chen had seen were all top-tier powerhouses. The Blood Scatterer, Zhou Yunshen, Jin Ling, Fenghua, Li Ge, Deng Taiyue, and Jiu Ling Yanyun...
How could they be like Emperor Butcher, lacking skill and clarity in battle, with flaws and openings everywhere, even if they possessed some abilities?
Especially since he lacked a strong fighting spirit.
At the very least, the three Lu brothers who came together still had the courage to fight to the death!
"I wonder if he was spoiled by that Ancient Demon father of his?"
Luo Chen muttered to himself for a moment, then heard cheers coming from below.
Although there were only two hundred people, they soared into the clouds!
"The beast tide has retreated!"
"We won!"
"Look, up in the sky!"
The Golden Tiger strode on four legs, treading on golden clouds, and respectfully approached Luo Chen.
He was greeted with a rebuke.
"Why did you repel the remaining demons?"
Luo Chen's previous order was for Emperor Butcher to command those demons to surrender, not to make them retreat!
Emperor Butcher answered fearfully, "It's not that they were unwilling, but the lower-tier demons are mindless. Those Third-stage Demon Kings are under the command of the three Lu brothers, and they don't listen to me. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, and since I surrendered..."
Luo Chen stared at him, not saying a word.
Emperor Butcher lowered his head, and only then did Luo Chen coldly snort and withdraw his gaze.
Oh well!
With so many demons, it was more than the current Luo Tian Sect could handle. If they were to capture them all, it might create a situation where they would be overwhelmed by the sheer number of prisoners.
Moreover, there was another matter to attend to!
Luo Chen slowly stood up, his light golden eyes gazing towards the direction of the Fenghua Palace.
There was a war raging there, still in full swing.
Since they were neighbors, and Fenghua Fairy had called him "Brother Luo," he naturally had to draw his sword and lend assistance.
Just as Luo Chen was about to set out, his pupils suddenly contracted!
In the high sky, a mysterious wind blew, formless and intangible, beyond comprehension.
If it were an ordinary time, Luo Chen would surely praise, "What exquisite Wind Escape Technique!"
But now, he had no such inclination.
Because behind that mysterious wind was a powerful escape light, sweeping through wind and thunder, relentlessly pursuing!
A Great Demon Emperor!
"Damn it, how did Ling Fengzi bring such an enemy here?"
Luo Chen cursed silently, his face already showing a grave expression.
He recognized the owner of the Wind Escape Technique, frantically fleeing—it was indeed Ling Fengzi, and he was heading in Luo Chen's direction.
A thousand miles away, he arrived in an instant!
Boom...
The mysterious wind arrived, and after it stopped, it shook the void.
As soon as Ling Fengzi appeared, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of congealed blood.
"Pfft... Fellow Daoist, save me!"
Luo Chen looked closely, and the other man's robe was tattered, his face deathly pale. His usually well-groomed hair was now in disarray.
There was a fist-sized hole in his chest and abdomen, and fresh blood was flowing out.
His cultivation base was barely detectable.
Was he at his wit's end? Luo Chen took a deep breath and asked, "What happened? Why are you in such a sorry state? Who is chasing you?"
"It's the Seven Rhino Overlord, one of the nine overlords!"
Ling Fengzi gasped for breath, his face showing a sickly blush.
"The Heaven Ascending Pass is already in chaos, and the battle between Nascent Soul experts is spread out. I don't know how the Seven Rhino Overlord found out about the intelligence from the Grand Blade Domain that I discovered. He abandoned his stalemate with the Abyss Sect's Great Cultivator and is now chasing me relentlessly!"
"If not for the Wind-Concealing Elixir you gave me, I would have died by now."
"Pill Master, you must save me!"
Luo Chen had never seen Ling Fengzi in such a feeble state, not even when he was forced by the Ling Tian Lord to gather intelligence.
The difference between life and death was truly terrifying!
Seeing Luo Chen's silence, Ling Fengzi spoke urgently, "I know you have that ability. You're not afraid of Lei Daozi from Shouyang Mountain, and the Seven Rhino Overlord was also heavily injured by the Ling Tian Lord. He's not your match!"
"You really overestimate me!"
Luo Chen gave a bitter smile, but he didn't expect the other to run towards Bai Li Qingchuan. It turned out to be because of the incident where he stood out during the Shouyang Debate.
But he didn't refuse.
The reason was simple—Bai Li Qingchuan was right beneath his feet.
The cheers of the Luo Tian Sect cultivators still echoed in his ears.
Even the Seven Rhino Overlord, who had abruptly stopped, had his spiritual sense locked onto Luo Chen.
"Retreat behind me!"
Luo Chen said slowly, and his body began to emit intense ripples of cultivation power.
The Nascent Soul realm unleashed, and countless stray spiritual energies in the heavens and earth surged towards him.
Ling Fengzi, relieved of his burden, retreated cleverly behind Luo Chen.
It was only then that he noticed a golden tiger with a cultivation base higher than his own, staring at him.
Not only that, but when Ling Fengzi looked around, his eyes nearly popped out.
"This..."
The shock in his heart turned into absolute confidence in Luo Chen.
Those Great Cultivators didn't care about his life or death, but Luo Chen, who always upheld the principles of a gentleman, might be able to save him.
This time, he had come to the right place!
Ling Fengzi didn't ask about the situation, and Luo Chen had no time to explain.
At this moment, his cultivation base was fully charged, and his three souls were united.
His cultivation base was completely unconcealed, and the vast amount of Qi and blood in his body continuously transformed into Yuanli, spreading throughout his entire body.
The enemy had arrived!
Boom!
Demonic energy surged, and demonic winds swirled.
A figure appeared, walking on air.
His eyes, filled with hatred, landed on the white-robed man.
"You're Danzong Luo Chen?"
The question was asked with certainty.
The Seven Rhino Overlord stared at Luo Chen, "I heard you were involved in the battle at the Grand Blade Domain!"
"I, Wu Guang, died under your sword. My numerous children also suffered at your hands!"
"When you were alone, did you hear their wails?"
Facing these accusations, Luo Chen remained silent.
The Seven Rhino Overlord's gaze swept across the plains, where a herd of beasts was fleeing. On the plain, there was a corpse of a deer pierced by countless swords, and on the Black Water Riverbank, there was another headless deer corpse.
The son of the Ancient Demon Emperor Tian was peering over at them, though he didn't speak, his eyes were filled with a plea for help.
This battle record made Luo Chen's heart tremble.
The Lu family's three brothers were not weak! Even in the Ancient Demon Emperor Tian's domain, they were highly valued and often assigned to serve the favored concubine, Jin Xiu Xian.
But he never expected such a tragic death.
Luo Chen's face turned solemn, and he looked at Luo Chen again.
"Hand over Emperor Butcher, and I won't pursue the past. I'll leave after that!"
Luo Chen's lips moved, and he finally spoke.
"What if I don't?"
Just this sentence made the Seven Rhino Overlord furious.
"Since you're unwilling, let's settle old and new grudges!"
As he spoke, his overwhelming cultivation power burst forth, and a blue pearl was spat out from his mouth.
"Emperor Butcher, don't blame me!"
"As the son of the Ancient Demon Emperor, you can die but not surrender. Dying here is a good thing for you and your father!"
"After this battle, I'll bring your remains back to the Holy Land of Mount Ping."
Facing the Seven Rhino Overlord's overwhelming aura, Luo Chen's eyes twitched.
So this was the Great Demon Emperor? No wonder Ling Fengzi fled for his life.
His cultivation power was indeed stronger than his own.
Especially that blue pearl, it gave him a sense of great threat.
Ling Fengzi had indeed brought him a "worthy opponent".
Though shocked, Luo Chen showed no intention of retreating.
At this moment of the Demon-Human War, how can one negotiate terms with the powerful beings of the Demonic Race?
If word of this got out, Luo Chen would have no place to stand in the world.
The only choice is to fight!
Luo Chen stood silently in the void, slowly raising his right hand, and with a sword-like finger, he gently pointed downward.
At this moment, the heavens seemed to resonate with him!
The winds and clouds changed abruptly, and the sky lost its color.
Vast amounts of spiritual energy from the heavens and earth surged from all directions, and there were some indescribable and incomprehensible things mixed within.
On the ground, the green grass withered, and the trees decayed.
The demon beast corpses that had fallen in previous battles were now visible, turning into puddles of dried bones.
Even the bodies of the two Demon Kings, Lu Changqing and Lu Chang'an, had their spiritual light dimmed beyond recognition.
It was as if the remaining vitality in their flesh had been drawn out by Luo Chen.
Everything was restlessly stirring.
This included the Seven Rhinos Demon King across from him, whose formidable power was also subtly restless.
The Seven Rhinos revealed an incredulous expression, as if he had seen a ghost.
But in Luo Chen's line of sight, there was no ghost, only the surging power, like a blazing sun.
"This is... the True Intention of the Law!"
As this thought flashed through his mind, the blue, gem-like bead in his hand seemed eager to be released.
Luo Chen ignored it, and his right hand continued to press downward.
Such an opponent could not be dealt with using ordinary means.
A fourth-stage spell was not enough.
The Grand Five Elements Sword Array was incomplete.
The newly created Triple Hell might suppress ordinary experts, but it definitely couldn't suppress a Demon King.
The Yuan Tu Sword, which had once slain a Huashen Realm master, might be able to fight, but the sword spirit still hadn't fully acknowledged Luo Chen as its master.
Therefore, there was only the Kuxiang Daoist Finger!
With one finger, all things withered!
The blue bead that was rushing towards Luo Chen visibly slowed down.
The finger, which had gathered immense power, pressed against the bead, as if in a tug of war.
The bead's movement became sluggish, and it couldn't advance even an inch, gradually... retreating!
Behind Luo Chen, Di Tu watched this scene with fear.
He never expected that Luo Chen, who he thought had exhausted his power and was only putting on a strong front, still had such a deadly move!
Amidst his fear, there was also a hint of relief.
Fortunately, he hadn't wavered and repeatedly betrayed them.
Ling Fengzi trembled all over, revealing an expression of disbelief.
He had thought Luo Chen would be strong, but not this strong!
No wonder Luo Chen had dared to connect with various parties and represent the major forces of Dongyang, forcing the Abyss Sect's experts to give them an explanation.
With such a deadly move, even a Great Cultivator would not dare to block it easily, right?
"No, this is not an ordinary killing move, this is a Divine Ability!"
As Ling Fengzi blurted out these words, the blue bead was forcefully pushed back by Luo Chen.
It was as if nothing had happened.
The Seven Rhinos Overlord's face turned ugly, and he grabbed the bead.
"At such a young age, at such a realm, he has actually comprehended the True Intention of the Law and even mastered the corresponding Divine Techniques!"
"Danzong Luo Chen, your reputation is well-deserved!"
"It's just a pity that you are still not my match!"
"Today, you... hmm?"
Just as the Seven Rhinos adjusted his power and attempted to strike again, he suddenly grunted.
His face turned pale with fear.
Instinctively, he reached for the top of his head.
Blood gushed out!
There, during his transformation, was the place where his horn had been intentionally left intact.
It was a pity that during the Great Battle of the Overlord Domain, his horn had been forcibly pulled out by the Ling Tian Lord of the Abyss Sect, causing him severe injuries.
After years of recovery, he had managed to suppress the wound.
But at this moment! Blood gushed like a fountain, and the wound on his head even started to split open.
Not far away, a light laughter could be heard.
"Do you think that my Divine Ability, which contains the True Intention of the Law, is that simple?"
Indeed, it was not simple. Unknowingly, it even affected the Seven Rhinos' original body, making his injuries difficult to suppress, and even his physical body felt withered.
"Do you think I can only use that move once?"
Amidst the laughter, Luo Chen retracted his smile, and his expression turned cold.
Once again, he slowly raised his right hand, and with a sword-like finger! Threads of spiritual energy from the heavens and earth gathered towards his fingertip, forming tiny vortices.
Seeing this, the Seven Rhinos felt his soul tremble, and he dared not linger, turning to flee.
He came as fast as he left, and he ran even faster than before! Only Feng Hua Xianzi, who had rushed over, caught a glimpse of the figure with a blood-red fountain on his head, and she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
"What happened?"
Luo Chen didn't answer her.
The vortices of spiritual energy continued to swirl on his fingertip, and his cold eyes gazed into the distance.
A figure slowly appeared.
With a look of wariness, she glanced at Luo Chen, and then chased after the Seven Rhinos.
