Chapter 136: Crushing the Wan Gu Sect Elder to Death

Xu Chen looked at the Seventh Grade Mid-stage Elder who had appeared and said indifferently, "Are you here to die as well?" That person's lips curled into a sinister smile: "Tsk, this seat has heard it for the first time that someone of the same level dares to speak to this seat like this."

"Ding!"

The instant he finished speaking, the cane in this person's hand trembled.

Accompanied by a "ding" sound, the Gu Qi spread rapidly outward like ripples on a lake. Countless venomous snakes and ferocious beasts condensed from Gu Qi suddenly appeared beside Xu Chen.

The next second, these Gu Qi venomous snakes and ferocious beasts, hissing, rushed straight for Xu Chen's body.

"I said, this Gu Qi is useless against my Protective Qi." Xu Chen's body trembled as he said coldly.

In an instant, the Gu Qi venomous snakes and ferocious beasts were shaken apart by Xu Chen's aura, turning back into Gu Qi and filling the Field.

That Third Elder chuckled lightly: "I didn't intend to hurt you; I just wanted to control your movements." After speaking, that Gu Qi turned into chains out of thin air, tightly locking the space around Xu Chen. For a moment, Xu Chen was actually unable to perform Space Movement.

Seeing this scene, everyone felt that this Gu Qi was extremely bizarre. Merely Seventh Grade power could actually seal off space.

After all, Martial Artists of this level had only just learned to use Space Power. Only those above Eighth Grade possessed the ability to seal space.

Many powerful figures exclaimed in shock: "The Gu Qi of the Wan Gu Sect is actually this strong?"

Shangguan Luoyun said dismissively, "Do you know why people of the Wan Gu Sect almost all have lifespans of only a few hundred years?"

Everyone was stunned: "We don't know. Clearly they are thousands of years old, yet they can only live for a few hundred years."

Shangguan Luoyun said indifferently, "Because they constantly consume their potential, crazily using various Secret Techniques."

Jin Tianlong was shocked: "Is the current Third Elder of the Wan Gu Sect using a Secret Technique?" Shangguan Luoyun nodded: "Because Gu Poison can provide a lot of Spiritual Qi and a little Life Force, they almost never feel weak. It's just that the Life Force consumed is greater, and it cannot be returned."

"Gu Poison itself also ravages their bodies, so although Secret Techniques are strong, the cost is also great." Everyone nodded; these people of the Wan Gu Sect were quite ruthless to themselves.

No wonder the Enan Field possesses Ninth Grade defensive power; it probably consumed countless Secret Techniques and Life Force!

"Whoosh!"

Xu Chen hadn't expected at this moment that this Third Elder could imprison his space. To achieve this with Seventh Grade power, he must have paid a huge price. The Third Elder's lips curled upward: "Wait until this seat captures E'nan, then I will deal with you slowly."

Shang Buxiang beside him also sneered: "A mere Seventh Grade disciple dares to oppose the Wan Gu Sect like this; he simply doesn't know the height of the sky or the depth of the earth."

After speaking, the two ignored Xu Chen and turned their heads to look at E'nan.

At this moment, in their eyes, Xu Chen was already someone they could handle at will. For a moment, everyone in the Field had faces almost covered in terror. If such a genius as Xu Chen was also controlled, what could they do then! Ye Xuan sneered; it seemed it was time for him to make his appearance.

Making an appearance at this moment would be infinitely glorious.

"Hehe, do you perhaps think this can trap me?" Just when everyone was nearly desperate, a faint voice slowly drifted over.

Everyone looked over in shock and found that the person speaking was none other than Xu Chen. Hearing this, the Third Elder of the Wan Gu Sect did not turn his head but roared in anger: "You dog thing that is trapped, do you want to die first?"

He was somewhat annoyed; how did this dog thing named Xu Chen dare to contradict him? It was just that in the instant he turned his head, he froze. "Crack!"

They saw that the space chains trapping Xu Chen, at some unknown time, were already full of cracks. Xu Chen merely trembled lightly, and these space chains suddenly shattered, dispersing into strands of Gu Qi.

Xu Chen slowly raised his eyes, coldness covering them: "You are the first person to dare speak to me like that."

"This is impossible!"

At this moment, the two Elders of the Wan Gu Sect exclaimed in terror. Their space chains involved the Space Law. Casting this thing had cost them fifty years of lifespan; the price was huge. Now, this Xu Chen had actually broken free.

Not only the two from the Wan Gu Sect, but everyone inside and outside the Field were nearly dumbfounded. Even space chains could be shaken apart? Xu Chen's move truly shocked them. Even Ye Xuan was full of caution; he also needed his master to break these space chains. Yet Xu Chen could break them alone? "Hum!"

Xu Chen's expression remained calm; his body moved slightly and he suddenly vanished from his original spot. When he appeared again, Xu Chen was already before the Third Elder, saying indifferently, "What did you just call me?"

The Third Elder's body trembled, his eyes full of disbelief: "H-how, how is this possible?"

"Whoosh!"

Xu Chen's Shen Yu War Spear suddenly appeared, then with lightning speed, fiercely slashed across the Third Elder's throat.

In an instant, blood sprayed, black blood accompanying the Gu Qi scattering in all directions. Xu Chen's Shen Yu Armor blocked all the filth.

However, this Third Elder's face was pained; he clutched his throat and convulsed wildly.

A large amount of Life Force was rapidly dissipating from this Third Elder's throat. Before long, this Third Elder shriveled into a dried corpse, his eyes hollow, with not a trace of blood or Qi remaining.

Xu Chen turned to look at Shang Buxiang: "Your turn."

"Bang!"

Shang Buxiang was terrified and, without hesitation, crushed his teleportation Jade Pendant, trying to flee from here. Under normal circumstances, he could have left.

However, the next second, he was horrified to discover that the space around him was strangely forbidden. He trembled as he looked at Xu Chen: "It's you, you, how are you so strong? This Xu Chen is only Seventh Grade; how can he seal space?" "Burst!" Xu Chen extended his right hand and said coldly.

The next second, his right hand grabbed through the air, and Shang Buxiang simply exploded into a mist of blood out of thin air. Throughout the entire process, Xu Chen was turned sideways.

In the blink of an eye, the two people from the Wan Gu Sect were thus completely crushed and killed by Xu Chen. The Gu Qi here also gradually dissipated due to the two deaths. For a moment, Xu Chen was already like a savior. Xu Chen narrowed his eyes; he had just used some Space Law. He shouldn't have known this stage nor wanted to use it, but these people of the Wan Gu Sect were too perverted, even forcibly mutilating themselves to trap him. Of course, he didn't dare use too much, fearing trouble.

After all, if someone who originally couldn't use the Space Law suddenly used the Law prematurely, it might cause the world order to become chaotic.

He asked the System: "I didn't use much Space Law; the world shouldn't collapse, right?" The System responded: "There will be a small impact, but collapse is unlikely, but it is not recommended to use it recklessly. If you want to use it, you must raise yourself to your original strength."

Xu Chen nodded: "I understand; I keep this in mind at all times."

Now, this major plot of the E'nan Disturbance is basically considered over, but it isn't over. Because in the original text, these two from the Wan Gu Sect were also killed by Ye Xuan. Now it's him, which also means the Wan Gu Sect has formed a death grudge with him. However, it's fine; the major plot the Wan Gu Sect should participate in next will still happen. "E'nan, can you resolve these Enan Fields?" Xu Chen asked.

E'nan nodded: "No big problem."

After speaking, her jade hand moved lightly; in an instant, those Enan Fields trembled violently.

Immediately, in the shocked gazes of the crowd, they directly turned into objects resembling small balls, floating in her jade palm.

They looked about the size of a ping-pong ball, but each radiated a bloody, enchanting color. The next second, E'nan directly opened her red lips and swallowed all these small balls.

Everyone was dumbfounded; could this thing be swallowed? E'nan said: "My body is very special, but the Enan Fields were originally controllable. The people of the Wan Gu Sect made me unable to control these things and even enhanced their defense."

"Now that I have recovered consciousness, these things are weapons for me, not burdens." Hearing this, the surrounding crowd immediately felt their scalps go numb.

Damn it! Are the women beside Xu Chen all this terrifying? Ling Sheng Quan Ling, a natural Spirit Body, capable of converting between solid and void.

Huo Qilin, a beast body, possessing Qilin Mysterious Fire.

Bu Fengshuang, an array prodigy, casually creating a Seventh Grade Great Array. E'nan, swallowing Enan Fields with her mouth, able to release them at any time. Who the hell dares to provoke Xu Chen now!

Xu Chen asked: "What will happen to those who didn't die?"

E'nan said: "Although the people who didn't die are injured, because the Gu Poison has completely dissipated, there is no major harm."

Xu Chen nodded, took E'nan's hand, and used Space Movement to arrive beside Liang Qing. He saw Liang Qing looking at E'nan, with killing intent splashing in his eyes.

Clearly, E Nan had caused heavy casualties in his Heavenly Sword Sect, and he was furious.

Xu Chen rubbed his temples: "Master, was it my Xu Chen who broke the Enan Field this time? Am I the one with the greatest merit?" Liang Qing's face stiffened: "Yes!" Xu Chen nodded: "Then you cannot touch E Nan. I'll give up the one hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones—how about that?" Spirit Stones he could find anytime, but if the female lead died, he would definitely have to reincarnate. Clearly, he had to protect her.

Liang Qing gritted his teeth: "Fine. Since you say so, I'll grant you this favor."

"I'll also let bygones be bygones regarding your killing of our Saint Son and Saintess." He pondered: Xu Chen's talent was monstrous, a once-in-a-millennium genius.

It simply wasn't worth it for him to oppose such a prodigy over a mere Saint Son and Saintess. Otherwise, whether his Heavenly Sword Sect could even survive in the future remained uncertain.

Xu Chen smiled lightly: "Then thank you, Master. If those of the Heavenly Sword Sect don't provoke me, I won't kill them randomly."

Liang Qing's lips twitched: "The Heavenly Sword Sect and Jixia Academy aren't destined to become mortal enemies." Xu Chen turned to the Pavilion Master of Tianlei Pavilion: "And what about you, Pavilion Master?"

The Pavilion Master of Tianlei Pavilion also sighed: "Though my Tianlei Pavilion has suffered countless casualties, I too am willing to grant you this favor."

Xu Chen felt relieved—he hadn't expected his influence to be this great now.

After all, just a few months ago, if such a thing had happened, these two would have barely glanced at him.

This, then, was the importance of strength.

Xu Chen swept his sleeve: "Then thank you both. Should either of your sects need aid in the future, my Xuegong will lend a hand."

Liang Qing and the Pavilion Master of Tianlei Pavilion bowed simultaneously: "Young Palace Master's bearing is extraordinary—we are truly impressed." Shangguan Luoyun watched silently, nodding in approval—handled excellently.

No wonder he was her Chen'er—she longed to go up and kiss him. Then, Xu Chen said no more and headed straight back to the Xuegong.

Next, let's go through this Imperial Dynasty selection arc.

This selection includes all sects and factions within the Tianzun Dynasty's territory, and even all Seventh Grade cultivators of the Tianzun Dynasty itself.

In other words, there will be Seventh Grade Perfection experts. He had no intention of winning—it would mean nothing anyway. He'd just go through the motions, then continue advancing.
