Chapter 128: Lu Chen, Get Ready!

Liu Jingmo's remnant soul let out a mournful cry, and in the next instant, it was directly captured by Lu Chen using the power of the heavenly and earthly rules through the tenth orifice.

"Is this the power of the heavenly and earthly rules? How wondrous!"

Lu Chen looked at Liu Jingmo's remnant soul in his hand, waved his large hand, and stored it into the Chaos Heaven Banner.

A cultivator of this level could indeed refine extremely top-grade killing qi.

After a brief sigh, Lu Chen turned his gaze once again toward the center of the battlefield.

The massive form of the Xuanming Ancestor was coordinating with the puppet army of the Xiansha Ancestor in fiercely attacking the formation of the two Dao-comprehending cultivators of Xuanzhou.

On Qin Yan's side, she and Luan Yue were locked in a fierce, inseparable battle.

On Yun Shu's side, both had only recently broken through, so they appeared somewhat hesitant and unrestrained in their movements.

The three sides in the conflict seemed to have fallen into a temporary balance at this moment.

Not rushing to act, he was still searching for an opportunity.

Soon after, the serpentine body of the Xuanming Ancestor gradually approached the battlefield of Luan Yue and Qin Yan, seemingly intending to use his own form to create a certain advantage for Luan Yue.

"The opportunity has come."

Lu Chen keenly sensed the moment; his body moved, and he instantly vanished from his original position.

At the same time, he sent a voice transmission to Luan Yue and Qin Yan, preparing to join forces with them to slay the enemy.

"Understood."

Both simultaneously replied via voice transmission, and Lu Chen had already arrived before the Xuanming Ancestor.

"What does this brat want to do?!"

Due to his powerful physical form, the Xuanming Ancestor initially paid no attention to Lu Chen's presence.

He even intended to casually fling Lu Chen to death with his serpent tail.

But soon, his danger-sensing cultivation technique suddenly activated.

"What?! This brat can actually threaten me?"

Before he could react, Luan Yue and Qin Yan simultaneously turned and unleashed the Myriad Poisons Return to Sect Great Law and the Heaven Demon Shatter Heaven Decision.

At the same time, Lu Chen also released the Black Prison Sword Canon, further weakening the opponent's resistance.

The sudden appearance of a massive black purgatory instantly drew the attention of everyone on the battlefield.

This included Yun Shu Ancestor and the Xiansha Ancestor.

"Luan Yue...... you!"

They never imagined that Luan Yue, a completely devoted demonic path cultivator, would suddenly defect at this moment.

Almost the instant the Xuanming Ancestor sensed the appearance of the Black Prison, his form was instantly blown into countless fragments.

Without uttering a word, his physical body shattered and his soul departed.

The next moment, Lu Chen still did not grant him an opportunity; his body moved once again.

"Chaos Heaven Banner!"

As soon as the Chaos Heaven Banner appeared, it obscured the sky and blocked the sun.

Even though Yun Shu Ancestor's Nine Heavens Blood Domain could restrict the manifestation of most treasures, it could not prevent its appearance.

In an instant, half of the demonic cultivators' souls were forcibly torn from their bodies and, along with Xuanming's soul, sucked into the Chaos Heaven Banner.

"The Chaos Heaven Banner is actually on you?! Could you be the person Youxiang mentioned back then?"

Seeing this, Yun Shu's expression had completely changed.

Regarding this invasion, she could be said to be full of confidence.

Not only had she herself broken through to the mid-stage of Dao Comprehension, but the demon faction had also gained a fifth Dao Comprehension cultivator.

She had originally thought that after stabilizing her own breakthrough realm, she could launch a raid immediately to prevent the orthodox path from producing a mid-stage Dao Comprehension cultivator.

But she never imagined that Huang Jingxuan's breakthrough time would actually come before hers.

Moreover, she had even used means unknown to herself to silently sway Luan Yue Ancestor to defect.

Clearly, with the opponent's soul power, all enslavement methods should be ineffective.

Most importantly, just who is this Lu Chen? How could he possess such methods?

"Yun Shu Ancestor, retreat now, or we will all be doomed here."

Not far away, the sole remaining Dao Comprehension cultivator of Mianzhou, the Xiansha Ancestor, kept retreating, his face already filled with dread.

"Just who is this person? How can someone at the early Cave Heaven stage possess strength equal to ours?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Shu Ancestor's expression became extremely complex.

In the end, she still made her decision, intending to preserve combat strength: "Retreat!"

But Lu Chen naturally would not give them a chance to rest and recover for a comeback.

"The Divine Continent is not a place where you can come and go as you please."

The next moment, he, Huang Jingxuan, Luan Yue, and Qin Yan simultaneously attacked.

Seeing escape was impossible, Yun Shu's expression instantly turned cold upon seeing the situation:

"If you insist on exterminating us completely, I will certainly take two of you with me!"

Saying this, her form instantly swelled to several times its size, already appearing as if prepared to perish together.

But just then, the Empress's form suddenly appeared beside Lu Chen.

She glanced at the sky, her expression slightly solemn as she spoke:

"Lu Chen, it has come."

Following the Empress's words, Lu Chen raised his head and discovered that a scene once deduced in the space within had now come to pass.

At this moment, the sky resembled shattered glazed tile, breaking and peeling away.

Immediately after, a pair of large hands suddenly stretched out from the void behind.

At the moment this scene unfolded, everyone was stunned.

They all stopped their movements, staring blankly at the sky.

At the same time, a terrifying aura surged forth from the shattered void, spreading throughout the entire Mo Realm in just a few breaths.

Not only near the border of the Tian Province, but also Mian Prefecture, Xuan Province, Zhen Province, demonic sects, orthodox sects, and even some dynastic territories.

All cultivators saw the appearance of those two great hands!

"What on earth is this existence!"

"Such a terrifying aura! It seems to possess a trace of heavenly Dao power!"

"Could it be, it is an incarnation of the heavenly Dao!"

Soon, someone realized this aura was closely tied to the heavenly Dao will of the entire Mo Realm.

At this moment, Lu Chen and the several Dao-comprehending cultivators under him also immediately understood.

But why would the heavenly Dao will appear at this time?

No one knows why.

The next moment, the pressure intensified again; all cultivators in the Mo Realm who had embarked on the path of cultivation simultaneously spat out a mouthful of blood and felt their souls suddenly drained significantly.

Immediately afterward, everyone's aura weakened by several degrees at the same moment.

"Is the heavenly Dao suppressing our realms? No! It is seizing our cultivation!"

"Why is this happening? Is the path of cultivation a trap?!"

"Impossible! What on earth is going on?!"

Everyone was subdued by the pressure and let out painful cries; in the entire Mo Realm at this moment, aside from mortals, only Lu Chen, due to the presence of the Empress Qi Luo, could still move freely.

"Lu Chen, prepare to unleash the Pulling Technique!"

The Empress gave Lu Chen little time to react; she said, and her form instantly vanished. The next moment, all her soul power erupted, transforming into an equally massive illusory hand that forcefully pushed back the great hand above by a fraction.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen's expression froze.

"Pulling Technique? What does that mean?"

A terrifying thought suddenly arose in his heart.

Is the Empress trying to make him enslave the heavenly Dao?!
