#1236 - It seems you don't know where this place is.
After realizing what was happening, Chu Zhengyu tentatively asked, "Are you aware of where you are?"
Lu Chen replied, "Isn't this the Outer Domain?"
Chu Zhengyu seemed to consider something, then asked, "Do you mean that, as far as you're concerned, you've come to the Outer Domain?"
Lu Chen was bewildered by Chu Zhengyu's question. Weren't they already in the Outer Domain? Chu Zhengyu immediately noticed the puzzled look on Lu Chen's face.
At this moment, Chu Zhengyu muttered to himself, "This is interesting. It seems you don't know where this is."
Chu Zhengyu stated directly, "The place you are in is on the tongue of the Chaos Beast."
As soon as he said this, Lu Chen froze.
The tongue of the Chaos Beast?
Did that mean they had been inside the Chaos Beast's stomach all along?
Although he had long felt that the operating mode of this universe was somewhat like a living organism, he had never thought about it in this way.
If that was the case, did that mean these people from another world came from outside the Chaos Beast's body?
Could his true identity also be the same as theirs?
Seeing Lu Chen's shocked expression, Chu Zhengyu continued, "I didn't expect that there would be someone among the Beast Guards who could talk to me. It seems your identity is quite unusual."
Lu Chen came back to his senses and looked at Chu Zhengyu in the sky, saying, "Is there a possibility that I also come from the outside world?"
This…
Chu Zhengyu was stunned by Lu Chen's words. He even doubted whether he had judged correctly. He subconsciously re-examined the power within Lu Chen. After a moment, he finally spoke, "You Beast Guard are quite the joker."
"Your power originates from the same source as the Chaos Beast. How could you possibly come from the outside world?"
Lu Chen was stunned.
The Heavenly Maiden of the Nine Heavens Academy?
Who was that?
He had never even heard of her.
However, Lu Chen's brain quickly whirred, thinking of all the famous and powerful women in the universe. Soon, he locked onto one person.
Then, he said, "Are you talking about the Heavenly Oracle Woman?"
Chu Zhengyu looked at Lu Chen with a strange expression. Their Heavenly Maiden was indeed very good at calculating heavenly secrets, but when did she get the title of 'Heavenly Oracle Woman'? Did this person really know their Heavenly Maiden?
Chu Zhengyu then tentatively tried to trick Lu Chen, saying, "Alright, you Beast Guard, stop pretending. You just want to confuse me and then attack me."
"I advise you not to waste your time. Just attack directly."
Without any hesitation, Lu Chen revealed the Shattering God Sword. The moment the Shattering God Sword appeared, Chu Zhengyu's face froze.
A low-grade immortal artifact?
Although it was low-grade, it was still an immortal artifact. Only the outside world could possibly have immortal artifacts.
Chu Zhengyu quickly reacted, "It seems you Beast Guard are quite lucky, actually able to pick up an immortal artifact dropped by one of our people."
Chu Zhengyu could sense that the person speaking to him was only at the fifth level of the Great Emperor Realm, just a small fry.
Such a person could not possibly defeat those cultivators who possessed low-grade immortal artifacts, so the immortal artifact in this person's hand was likely picked up.
Chu Zhengyu continued, "It's a pity, even if you obtained the immortal artifact, you can't use it."
The power of the Beast Guards originated from the same source as the Chaos Beast. The power of the Chaos Beast could not activate immortal artifacts. This was common knowledge, so in Chu Zhengyu's view, even if the immortal artifact fell into the hands of the Beast Guards, it would not pose any threat to them.
However, soon Chu Zhengyu's worldview was shattered again. Lu Chen immediately activated the Shattering God Sword. The next moment, the pressure of the Shattering God Sword directly pressed down on Chu Zhengyu.
Chu Zhengyu merely raised his hand and blocked the pressure of the Shattering God Sword. Both of their faces showed surprise.
Chu Zhengyu was surprised that Lu Chen could activate the immortal artifact, while Lu Chen was surprised that Chu Zhengyu could easily block the pressure of the Shattering God Sword. This proved that the strength of this young man had probably reached the Heavenly Emperor Realm.
Chu Zhengyu thought to himself, could it be that this person in front of him really came from the outside? It was just that because he had stayed in the Chaos Beast's stomach for too long, he had been assimilated by the Chaos Beast, so he was able to use the power of the Chaos Beast?
At this moment, Lu Chen said to the system, "System, identify the information of the person in front of me."
The next moment, the system's voice came, "Host does not have permission."
Hearing the system's response, Lu Chen thought to himself, as expected, he had already touched the highest secret of this universe.
He was probably really from the outside, just trapped in here all along, constantly reincarnating.
That Xuan Tian knew about his affairs, so it was likely that Xuan Tian was the mastermind behind his constant reincarnation.
Chu Zhengyu said at this moment, "Even if you really are a cultivator from the outside, now that you have been assimilated by the Chaos Beast and become a Beast Guard, you are still my enemy."
As he spoke, the Heavenly Emperor power on Chu Zhengyu's body was released, and a terrifying pressure descended on the Outer Domain. All the Great Emperors of the Great Xia Dynasty were instantly crushed to the ground by this pressure.
Lu Chen was barely able to withstand the pressure, but his body was already bent over.
Lu Chen gritted his teeth and tightly held the Shattering God Sword in his hand.
"So strong!"
This was the second person he had ever encountered who could make him feel fear.
Chu Zhengyu continued, "This young master is kind-hearted and will help you all to be free!"
As he spoke, Chu Zhengyu mobilized his immortal power, preparing to use a spell to deal with Lu Chen and the others below.
The Beast Guards must be killed, otherwise, he would not be able to enter the Chaos Beast's stomach to find the Heavenly Maiden of their Nine Heavens Academy.
Although these Beast Guards in front of him seemed non-aggressive, once they were controlled by the will of the Chaos Beast, they would inevitably launch an attack on them, these outsiders.
Just as Chu Zhengyu was preparing to eliminate Lu Chen and the others, Lu Chen immediately shouted, "Form the formation!"
As soon as he spoke, the Great Emperors of the Great Xia Dynasty tried their best to circulate the spiritual power in their bodies. The next moment, they constructed the Spirit Gathering Formation again.
With the appearance of the Spirit Gathering Formation, all the pressure released from Chu Zhengyu's body was borne by Lu Chen, the formation's core. Lu Chen straightened his body, and a dharma idol slowly emerged behind him.
Seeing that the combined strength of these Beast Guards had actually caught up with him, Chu Zhengyu was once again stunned. He had been in the "Outer Domain" for some time, but he had never encountered such powerful Beast Guards.
The power of these Beast Guards could actually combine to become stronger???
Chu Zhengyu felt the pressure for a moment. Since he came in, he had not encountered any strong opponents, basically one-sided crushing.
After gaining power, Lu Chen did not attack immediately. He still wanted to know more about the outside world. (End of this chapter)
