Chapter 265: The Fury of Gong Mochen and the Others

Lu Tianyu revealed a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth: "Their retribution has arrived!"

How could he possibly let these people follow him? He was merely luring them to follow, only to deal with them later.

The Seven Stars Sect's containment array was always active, so how would the fierce beasts have any chance to attack them?

Hum!

He greatly reduced the range covered by his Divine Sense and shouted: "Stop killing the fierce beasts, let's charge forward quickly and shake off their pursuit!"

Lu Tianyu's consumption of Divine Sense at the Emperor Realm was extremely fast; he could not hold on for long.

His Divine Sense could not cover all the fierce beasts, so those behind would still catch up, only they dared not approach.

At this moment, by shrinking the coverage range, he could precisely conserve his Divine Sense consumption and charge to a safe distance.

The facts were indeed as such; they quickly widened the distance between themselves and the fierce beasts.

But the people on Gong Mochen's side were miserable.

The moment the Divine Sense range shrank, the fierce beasts let out a roar and immediately charged toward them.

Crack, crack~

The dozen or so cultivators on the periphery were caught off guard and were immediately bitten; either their necks or their heads were clamped, and they died one after another.

These fierce beasts had all survived through slaughter; they possessed the methods of wild beasts hunting prey, which was to lock onto the throat or explode the head to achieve an instant kill.

The dozen or so cultivators lost their lives before they could react, and were subsequently torn apart alive and devoured by the fierce beasts that rushed up.

The remaining cultivators reacted and immediately launched attacks.

"Ahhh~"

They roared and screamed in terror, and things fell into complete chaos.

Many people directly cursed Gong Mochen for being stupid, having actually fallen for Lu Tianyu's ploy.

Since he could control the Spirit Sealing Talisman, he could naturally control its range.

Gong Mochen was shocked and turned pale: "Everyone, do not panic, I will activate the array!"

"Activate the array immediately!"

He then took out an array disk to start the array, and the other six reacted very quickly as well.

But they needed time to activate it.

During this period, another twenty or so cultivators were rushed by the crazed fierce beasts and torn apart alive to be eaten.

The team of over a hundred people suddenly lost forty, with only eighty-odd remaining.

Moreover, the array also enclosed a dozen or so fierce beasts inside.

Furthermore, these dozen or so fierce beasts attacked the cultivators inside like madmen, not fearing the large number of people there at all.

At the cost of five injured and one dead, the eighty-odd cultivators finally killed the dozen or so fierce beasts.

Most importantly, one of the seven members maintaining the array was nearly bitten to death and severely injured by a fierce beast.

And the morale of all the cultivators inside was low, their faces filled with terror; they no longer had their previous high spirits.

Many people had ashen faces, feeling that they were doomed.

Gong Mochen's face was gloomy to the extreme, and he roared: "Lu Tianyu, I will not rest until you are dead!"

Ever since he started his career, he had never suffered such a big loss, and he did not expect to suffer a major loss at the hands of someone from a newly risen, remote star region.

Added to the previous humiliation, his hatred for Lu Tianyu reached a peak.

With one person missing to preside over the array, they could only temporarily find one of the Seven Stars Sect members to replace them, but fortunately, it could still be barely controlled.

Xiang Daxiong's clothes were tattered, and he gritted his teeth: "Damn brat, if I don't kill you, I swear I am not a man!"

He had thought he held the upper hand and that Lu Tianyu would beg for mercy and kowtow.

The result was the exact opposite; the Profound Dao Sect not only lost one person, but two others were severely injured and lost their combat effectiveness.

At this moment, he hated Lu Tianyu to the core.

Only Tian Yuanji, although there was anger on his face, felt more anxiety.

The scene from just a moment ago kept floating in his mind; he vaguely felt that what Lu Tianyu was utilizing was not the Spirit Sealing Talisman, but his own Divine Sense power.

Everyone was intimidated by that pressure, yet they overlooked that the talisman above Lu Tianyu's head was indeed activated.

This indicated that Lu Tianyu's own pressure was incomparably strong.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, secretly thinking that this brat was not that simple, possessed a great secret, and should not be easily provoked.

Just at this moment, Gong Mochen shouted: "We just accidentally fell for that brat's trick; from now on, no matter what situation we encounter, as long as we act cautiously and protect ourselves, there won't be any problems."

"That brat entering the swamp ahead of us to clear the path is a good thing."

Upon hearing this, the crowd finally let out a sigh of relief, and their panicked emotions subsided quite a bit.

After Lu Tianyu and his group traveled a distance quickly, Lu Tianyu spoke: "Everyone, stop for a moment!"

"We consumed the Heaven-Mending Pills; logically speaking, those fierce beasts shouldn't be chasing us relentlessly. Now they are in hot pursuit, and their numbers are increasing. If this goes on for long, we might be exhausted to death before we even reach the destination."

Although his attacks were sharp, he could not fight off so many fierce beasts.

Besides, he could not expose the secret of the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron.

Guo Zhuying frowned: "Then what should we do?"

The others all looked at Lu Tianyu.

Having spent this time together, they were completely convinced by Ye Lingyun.

Lu Tianyu's expression was grave: "I observed just now that among them, a dog-headed person, a sheep-headed person, and a pig-headed person are directing and guiding their actions; they need to be killed."

"You all set up the array, and wait for me to go kill them."

Shangguan Wan'er did not hesitate and directly ordered everyone to set up the puppet defensive array.

Guo Zhuying said: "You must be careful!"

She originally wanted to say she would go together, but thought better of it.

She knew Lu Tianyu's capabilities; if she went, she would only be a burden.

Lu Tianyu nodded: "Guard this well, open the rift!"

Once Shangguan Yu'er opened a gap, Lu Tianyu directly activated the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron to turn invisible and rushed out through the opening.

At this moment, the herd of beasts running at the very front had already surrounded them and began to attack the puppet formation frantically.

Ben Jieming sighed softly: "Following Young Master Lu is the most correct choice; those sects that bet their treasures on the Seven Stars Sect have likely miscalculated."

"Young Master Lu could have braved this Yaoshou Senlin alone; it is truly difficult for him to be burdened with us now."

After Lu Tianyu turned invisible just now, he could not detect any traces at all.

He immediately thought that Lu Tianyu could have hidden away by himself.

But now he is carrying so many of them and still has to look after them.

Once these words were spoken, Murong Xue nodded immediately: "That's right, Young Master Lu's abilities are beyond what you or I could imagine."

"He never intended to bring us along in the first place."

Shangguan Yu'er also expressed her agreement: "Indeed, that is so."

"If it weren't for the elders in our clans insisting that we must follow Young Master Lu closely, we wouldn't have found him and caused him so much trouble."

Wan Ziling and Zhao Qian also nodded: "He cured us of a poison that even masters found difficult to resolve, so we knew he was no ordinary person."

Lu Wenbin snorted: "It's good that you know this; this Yaoshou Senlin is like an empty land to him."

"If everyone gets out safely, you must remember the kindness Big Brother has shown you."

Without him needing to say it, the people here already regarded Lu Tianyu as their benchmark, the one person who must never be offended.

Doing one's best to be on good terms with him is a must.
