#1235 - Aren't you a beast guard?
Lu Chen wasted no more time. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and the aura around him suddenly solidified. Then, he slowly raised the sword in his hand. The纹路 on the hilt seemed to be infused with life at that moment, emitting a faint but chilling light.
Immediately afterward, he swung his arm fiercely, and a powerful sword energy instantly surged towards the Great Emperors of the four major forces in the distance.
The sword energy was like a Milky Way cascading down from the heavens, carrying an unmatched power. Wherever it passed, the air was torn apart, emitting a sharp whistling sound, and the space shattered inch by inch.
Affected by the black gas, the bodies of those Great Emperors were imprisoned by invisible shackles, making them unable to move. Now, facing the surging, seven-colored sword energy, a trace of horror and despair flashed in their eyes. Their lips trembled slightly, but they couldn't even cry for help.
Wherever the seven-colored sword energy passed, no matter what level of Great Emperor, they were all like fallen leaves swept up by a storm, without any resistance, all turned into dust, becoming a part of this desolate land of the Outer Realm.
Seeing that the sword energy was getting closer and closer to the Divine Martial Great Emperor, the Divine Martial Great Emperor suddenly raised his head. At this moment, his eyes had turned black, like two bottomless pools. His entire body exuded a thick black gas, like a demon crawling out of the depths of hell, looking as if he had completely turned into a Heavenly Demon.
Lu Chen also indeed felt the power of the Heavenly Demon from the Divine Martial Great Emperor, but he keenly noticed that the current Divine Martial Great Emperor was different from the other Heavenly Demons. In the depths of his eyes, there seemed to be a glimmer of his original sanity, like a candle flickering in the darkness, weak but still existing.
The Divine Martial Great Emperor suddenly slowly raised the staff in his hand. Although the movement was slow, it revealed a strange power. Then, he laughed loudly at the sky of the Outer Realm, saying, "So that's how it is, so that's how it is!!! Hahahahaha!!!" His laughter was filled with a hint of madness and triumph, echoing in this silent space of the Outer Realm, making people shudder.
"Heavenly Emperor! I am finally going to become a Heavenly Emperor!!!" As soon as he finished speaking, a strange power fluctuation was released from the staff. The power spread in the air like ripples. Immediately afterward, a black vortex actually appeared in front of the Divine Martial Great Emperor. The center of the vortex exuded a powerful suction force, as if it could devour everything.
Before Lu Chen could react, the Divine Martial Great Emperor's body was directly sucked into the vortex, disappearing without a trace.
This sudden change stunned Lu Chen. His brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes were full of shock and doubt.
He had already used a power close to that of a Heavenly Emperor to seal off the surrounding space. Why was the Divine Martial Great Emperor still able to break through the space? This question swirled in his mind, leaving him completely puzzled.
After the Divine Martial Great Emperor escaped, the Great Emperors of the four major forces were all eliminated by Lu Chen's powerful sword energy. Lu Chen's sword directly cleared the field.
However, after solving the people of the four major forces, Lu Chen could feel that the power of the Great Emperors behind him was also almost exhausted. Their aura became weak, and their faces were a little pale, which made Lu Chen a little worried.
It seemed that although the Spirit Gathering Array was useful, at his rate of consumption, even if a hundred Great Emperors were added together, it would not be enough for him to make a few moves. It seemed that he should not use his power randomly in the future. If he could solve it all at once, it was best to solve it all at once.
Then, Lu Chen dispelled the Spirit Gathering Array. His body leaped lightly, flew to a place with a space crack, and then carefully explored the black gas. When his hand was about to touch a trace of black gas floating in the air, the black gas, like a frightened beast, directly dodged, looking as if it had consciousness.
Lu Chen could clearly feel that these black gases were afraid of the spiritual power in his body, so they avoided it like this.
His heart stirred, and he directly circulated the spiritual power in his body, surrounding a ball of black gas, intending to explore the composition of this black gas and see what was going on with this black gas.
As a result, as soon as his spiritual power came into contact with the black gas in the air, the black gas, like paper burned by a raging fire, instantly dissipated directly, making it impossible for him to explore the composition of this black gas.
At this moment, the Outer Realm Continent suddenly shook violently. The entire world seemed to be on the verge of collapse. The land beneath their feet trembled violently, and the distant mountains were also shaking, as if they would collapse at any time.
Lu Chen quickly stabilized his body. His figure swayed slightly in the air, and then he quickly adjusted his posture, flew into the air, and scanned the surroundings vigilantly.
Suddenly, a Great Emperor suddenly shouted loudly, "Look at the distance, what is that!" His voice was filled with a hint of panic, and his finger trembled as he pointed to the sky in the distance.
As soon as the Great Emperor finished speaking, a huge black vortex suddenly appeared in the sky in the distance, and the vortex was rapidly growing larger. In the blink of an eye, the vortex had become as large as a low-level world, as if it was about to devour the entire sky.
Immediately afterward, another Great Emperor said, "There seems to be something coming out of that vortex!!!"
His voice was full of shock and fear. Everyone followed his gaze, and saw a faint light flickering in the black vortex.
Lu Chen frowned, staring straight at the black vortex. A trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. He had a premonition that the people from another world that Empress Tianhong spoke of were about to appear.
In the next moment, a huge black palace slowly emerged from the vortex. Seeing the palace, everyone present looked very serious. The palace exuded a powerful pressure, making it difficult for people to breathe. The rank of this palace was probably not lower than the rank of the sword in Emperor Xia Tian's hand.
Lu Chen couldn't help but clench the Shattered God Sword in his hand at this moment. His fingers exerted a slight force, and the cold touch from the hilt made him more clearly aware of the crisis before him.
He could clearly feel that this palace was an Immortal Artifact. He didn't expect that in this world, besides himself, there were actually people who possessed Immortal Artifacts.
As the palace slowly emerged from the vortex, the black vortex gradually closed. Suddenly, people heard a man's voice coming from within: "So lively, is this welcoming this young master's arrival?" The voice was filled with a hint of frivolousness and arrogance, appearing particularly abrupt in this silent space of the Outer Realm.
Hearing this sentence, the Great Emperors of the Great Xia Dynasty looked at each other, their faces revealing a confused expression. Obviously, none of them understood what this sentence meant. In their ears, this sentence was almost like gibberish noise.
However, there was one person present who understood. Lu Chen looked at the palace in the sky in surprise. Although it was the first time he had heard this sentence, his mind actually subconsciously translated the meaning of this sentence.
Lu Chen was a little puzzled. How could he understand this person's words? His heart was full of doubts, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the Great Emperors behind him, and asked, "Did you understand what that person said?"
The Great Emperors shook their heads one after another. Not a single one of them understood. Lu Chen then looked at Empress Tianhong. Empress Tianhong replied expressionlessly, "A little."
Just as Lu Chen was about to ask Empress Tianhong if this was the language of people from another world, a man wearing white, luxurious clothes appeared in front of the palace. The man lowered his head and glanced at Lu Chen and the others from a high position. His eyes were filled with a hint of disdain and scrutiny, as if he was looking at a group of ants.
"Not even a Ninth Realm. Has the Chaos Beast given up resisting?" The man's voice was filled with a hint of mockery. Hearing the man's words, Lu Chen basically judged that this man was from another world. He didn't care whether this man could understand his words or not, and directly asked, "What is the Chaos Beast you speak of?" His voice was filled with a hint of urgency and curiosity, wanting to find out the truth.
Seeing that Lu Chen actually took the initiative to ask him, the man in the sky instead revealed an unbelievable expression. His eyes widened slightly, obviously somewhat surprised.
Because he also understood what Lu Chen said. In the past, the Beast Guards he encountered would never talk to him. Basically, they would attack as soon as they saw him. The most important thing was that even if those Beast Guards communicated with each other, he couldn't understand what they were saying.
But he actually understood the words that this person in front of him said.
After recovering, Chu Zhengyu carefully looked at Lu Chen. His gaze swept over Lu Chen like a sharp sword, and then tentatively asked, "You are not a Beast Guard?" His voice was filled with a hint of uncertainty.
Lu Chen looked at the white-clothed youth in the sky with a confused expression, "Beast Guard, what is that?" His eyes were full of confusion, obviously not knowing anything about this term.
Seeing that Lu Chen didn't know anything, Chu Zhengyu thought in his heart with doubt, this person should be a Beast Guard, right? The power on his body has the same origin as the Chaos Beast, but why can they communicate with each other? This is a bit unreasonable. Out of curiosity, Chu Zhengyu didn't plan to attack immediately. He continued to ask, "Do you know who you are?"
Lu Chen replied, "The lord of the Great Xia Dynasty." His voice was filled with a hint of pride, which was the symbol of his identity.
Chu Zhengyu was full of questions. Great Xia Dynasty? What kind of force is that? He had never even heard of it.
He frowned, seeming to be thinking about something, and then seemed to have thought of something, wait, could it be that these Beast Guards also have countries? The Great Xia Dynasty he said is the force that this Beast Guard in front of him belongs to? (End of this chapter)
