Chapter 2134
Xue Linglong is captured
Sensing the oppressive aura emanating from Lu Chen, Xue Linglong's expression changed slightly. She then loudly proclaimed to Chen Min and the others, "Immediately channel your spiritual energy into the great formation!"
Upon hearing Xue Linglong's words, Chen Min and the others did not hesitate at all. They immediately raised their hands and poured their spiritual energy into the bead in the sky that was emitting a blood-red light.
With the infusion of spiritual energy, the bead unleashed its power, and the array patterns rapidly spread in all directions.
In a short while, the Blood Refining Sealing Array enveloped Lu Chen as well.
As soon as the array pattern appeared above Lu Chen's head, he immediately felt a sense of pressure. Then, the spiritual energy within his body seemed to freeze.
But Lu Chen didn't care at all. He raised his palm, and a clump of soil between his palms kept changing shape.
Lu Chen directly activated the Heavenly Tribulation Soil, transforming it into countless sharp cones, and then manipulated those earthen cones to smash into the sealing array in the sky.
When the earth cone formed by the Heavenly Tribulation Soil struck the array patterns of the Blood Refining Seal Array, the array instantly collapsed, and Xue Linglong suffered a backlash from the array, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, Xue Linglong immediately sensed something was wrong. She hadn't expected that in such a remote and desolate region, someone could actually restrain their Heavenly Demon Sect.
Seeing that the Blood Refining Seal Formation had been broken, Chen Min and the others knew that the situation was hopeless. Without any hesitation, they immediately fled back.
Seeing this, Lu Chen sneered and said, "You come and go as you please? You really don't take me seriously at all."
As he spoke, Lu Chen took out a long sword, infused it with spiritual energy, and then slashed out with the sword.
Drunken Dream of a Thousand Autumns - Slay!
The next moment, countless sword energies attacked those who had fled from the outer realm. Many people were killed by the invisible sword energies before they could react, and screams echoed throughout the battlefield.
Seeing this, Chen Min quickly said, "Everyone, it's time for you to show your trump cards, or we'll all die here."
Upon hearing this, Xue Linglong took out a demon statue and then poured all her spiritual power into it.
The next moment, a huge evil magic image appeared in the sky. The ferocious demon raised its giant hand and slapped it directly at Lu Chen.
The demon's palm strike was imbued with boundless malevolent energy, and the resulting airflow lifted up boulders from the earth.
Despite feeling the pressure of the palm strike, Lu Chen remained unfazed. He once again activated the Heavenly Tribulation Soil, causing it to form a huge earthen sphere that protected both him and Ji Yunmeng.
When the demon's palm struck the earthen ball, the ball burst forth with golden light, and the demon's giant palm was instantly dispersed by the golden aura.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Chen activated the Heavenly Tribulation Soil, transforming it into countless arrows.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the arrows rained down from the sky, striking the evil magic statue.
The evil magic vanished quickly, disappearing completely in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Xue Linglong was stunned again. Her evil magic form could easily suppress a Heavenly Realm expert, but it was powerless against Lu Chen.
What kind of magical artifact is that? How can it be so powerful?
Seeing that Lu Chen had easily neutralized Xue Linglong's trump cards, the other factions immediately pulled out their escape tools and fled in all directions without hesitation.
They originally wanted to use their trump card to fight Lu Chen again, but the magical artifact that Lu Chen had that could transform was surprisingly powerful.
Even when the Heavenly Demon Sect used its trump cards, it was no match for Lu Chen.
The Heavenly Demon Sect's trump card is many times stronger than theirs. Since even the Heavenly Demon Sect can't deal with Lu Chen, then even if they use their trump card, they still won't be able to defeat Lu Chen in the end.
Fortunately, they still had ways to escape.
For disciples from prestigious sects like theirs, each sect had prepared life-saving items for them before they left their respective factions. After all, disciples who could venture into the borderlands to seek ancient inheritances were among the most outstanding disciples in their respective sects.
At this moment, Chen Min took the lead and used the invisibility talisman to escape the battlefield.
In the blink of an eye, only the people recruited by various forces in the borderlands remained on the field, while the real outsiders were almost nowhere to be seen.
After Xue Linglong realized what was happening, she immediately took out a jade slip and prepared to activate it in order to escape the scene.
However, Lu Chen did not give her that chance.
Realizing that Xue Linglong was trying to escape, Lu Chen immediately activated the Heavenly Tribulation Soil, instantly enveloping Xue Linglong in it.
Xue Linglong quickly activated the jade slip, attempting to escape.
As soon as she activated the jade slip, she crashed directly into the earthen wall of the earthen ball.
Xue Linglong froze on the spot. She looked up and examined the surrounding earthen walls, then raised her hand and placed it on the inner wall of the earthen ball. As soon as her hand touched the Heavenly Tribulation Earth, she immediately felt a burning sensation.
She quickly withdrew her hand, feeling a pang of regret. She wished she hadn't agreed to form an alliance with those guys.
As a result, those people escaped, while he himself fell into the hands of the local natives.
Wait, is this really a treasure that the natives of the borderlands could possess?
Xue Linglong took another look at the inner wall of the entire clay ball.
The earthen ball exuded a sacred aura, and when she was inside it, she felt her soul being oppressed.
This treasure must be of a very high level; she had never encountered a treasure of this caliber when she was in Zhongzhou.
Could this treasure be something from that ancient ruin?
Did Lu Chen really obtain the ancient inheritance?
But now is not the time to think about these things. I've already been captured, and the next step is to think about how to escape.
The jade slip had lost its function; the only hope was to use benefits to tempt Lu Chen into releasing him.
Meanwhile, outside the earthen sphere, Lu Chen and Ji Yunmeng arrived beside the Heavenly Tribulation Earth. Looking at the earthen sphere before them, Ji Yunmeng asked, "What do you plan to do with the woman inside?"
Lu Chen said with a smile, "I plan to take her back to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion and interrogate her properly."
Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Ji Yunmeng frowned slightly.
Interrogation? What kind of interrogation?
She could tell this guy just wanted to sleep with her.
This scoundrel really wants to possess any pretty woman he sees, doesn't he care about getting himself into trouble later?
Ji Yunmeng warned, "These people from other regions should all have ways to escape, so you'd better be careful lest she get away."
Lu Chen said, "Don't worry, once she's in my hands, she won't get away."
Ji Yunmeng said no more. She flew into the sky and said to the Great Zhou army, "Clean up the battlefield immediately and don't let a single one escape."
The people from the outer realms have fled, but the lackeys trained by those forces from those realms are still there, and Ji Yunmeng has no intention of letting them go.
Those who remained had lost their will to fight. Their masters had fled, and continuing to fight would only lead to their deaths. It would be better to surrender and perhaps they could survive.
Immediately, the martial artists from all sides laid down their weapons and chose to surrender.
Thus, the first major battle between the foreign forces and the Great Zhou Dynasty ended in a resounding victory for the Great Zhou. (End of Chapter)
