Chapter 874 The Terrifying Old Man
Chapter 874 The Terrifying Old Man
When he appeared again, Lu Chen's figure instantly crossed thousands of miles and appeared in the endless starry sky.
However, the scene before his eyes caused a storm of shock in Lu Chen's heart!
Not far ahead, I saw an old man with white hair and beard standing in the air, surrounded by a dazzling golden halo, like a god descending to earth!
In his hand he held an ancient staff, the top of which was inlaid with a dazzling gem that sparkled with a strange light in the night sky.
The old man had a solemn expression on his face, his eyes were tightly closed, and he was muttering something. The ancient and obscure spell seemed to be able to communicate between heaven and earth, making people feel an inexplicable sense of oppression.
As the old man's voice rose and fell, the surrounding air seemed to be given life and began to fluctuate violently.
Then, extremely brilliant rays of light burst out from the top of the staff, interweaving into an extremely huge light net in the void, bombarding the looming yet indestructible plane barrier in front!
"Rumble..."
With a thunderous roar, the entire universe seemed to be shaken. Countless stars seemed to feel an irresistible force and trembled.
The plane barrier that was naturally nurtured by the way of heaven, which was originally indestructible, now appeared with ripples clearly visible to the naked eye under the impact of this extremely powerful force.
These ripples continued to spread outward like waves on the water, each carrying endless pressure and aura of terror.
This scene was so shocking! Even with Lu Chen's strength and knowledge, he couldn't help but be moved.
He opened his eyes wide, looking at what was happening before his eyes in disbelief, with an indescribable shock welling up in his heart.
He could clearly feel that the energy fluctuations released by the old man's every attack were enough to easily destroy any continent and trigger a world-destroying disaster.
Fortunately, the plane barrier withstood the opponent's attack, but it was also shaky, which made Lu Chen shocked.
He knew very well that once the plane barrier was destroyed, the Tianyuan Continent would cease to exist.
There was no time to think, as the other party was about to attack again.
Lu Chen immediately circulated his true energy and shouted loudly:
"Stop it! What are you doing, old man?"
When the old man heard this, he stopped moving and looked at Lu Chen indifferently.
However, just this one glance made Lu Chen feel shocked. It seemed that those eyes could penetrate the void and reach the depths of Lu Chen's soul.
"What a powerful old man! Who is he? What is his cultivation level?"
Lu Chen, standing in the air, looked at the old man in surprise and thought.
"Huh? Interesting, interesting. I didn't expect that you have the aura of the origin of the world. I guess you are the new guardian of this continent.
That's really a coincidence. Millions of years ago, I killed the guardian of this world. Now I meet him again. Do you think this is fate?"
At this time, the old man's cold voice sounded faintly. Although it was said lightly, it revealed a pressure that could not be ignored.
When Lu Chen heard this, alarm bells immediately rang in his heart. Millions of years ago, no matter whether what the other party said was true or false, Lu Chen felt more and more uneasy, thinking secretly in his heart:
"It seems that this old guy was sent by Murong Xiao. Could it be that he is here to look for me?
This is bad. The old guy is very powerful. With my current level of cultivation, I am sure I cannot defeat him. What should I do?"
The old man seemed to see through Lu Chen's thoughts and said with a faint smile:
"You don't have to be afraid, kid, because no matter what, both you and this world will be destroyed in this void today.
However, if you can voluntarily hand over the things that do not belong to you, perhaps I can spare your life alone.
You don’t have to deny it. As a person with great luck in this world, you can’t possibly not know what I’m talking about.”
When Lu Chen heard the old man's words, his heart sank.
He didn't expect that Murong Xiao would be so vicious that he would send people to destroy this world directly for a treasure.
"Damn it, what should I do now? If I had known this would happen, I should have sent Ling Manyu, Ye Rushuang, and my parents to the Golden Pearl World.
If we go back now, it should still be in time, but I don't know if the other party will discover the Golden Pearl World because of this. Should we take this risk?"
Lu Chen was thinking hard in his mind.
At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly had an idea and almost forgot about him, so he quickly communicated with his mind:
"Senior Long Hun, what should we do now? Didn't you say that the plane barrier was born naturally by the way of heaven?
With its terrifying power, no matter who comes, will they be strangled by the backlash of the plane barrier?
Why is this old guy so peaceful and even threatens to destroy the Tianyuan Continent? "
As soon as the words fell, the voice of Dragon Soul slowly sounded in Lu Chen's mind, with a hint of solemnity:
“Lu Chen, you don’t know that the reason why this old guy is safe and sound is mainly because of the staff in his hand.
Although I don’t know what kind of treasure it is.
However, that staff contained an extremely powerful sealing force that could temporarily resist the backlash of the plane barrier.
Moreover, according to my perception, his cultivation has been suppressed by the Heavenly Dao to the late stage of Earthly Immortal.
Although he is stronger than Gu Shisan, he is not completely invincible.
With your many tricks, you might be able to kill him."
When Lu Chen heard this, he immediately curled his lips in annoyance. What do you mean by being cunning? That should be called resourceful, right?
However, with the Dragon Soul's narration, Lu Chen felt a little relieved, but he still did not dare to take it lightly.
So, he communicated with his mind again: "What should I do now?"
"First, you need to calm down," Dragon Soul continued.
"Since his cultivation has been suppressed to the late stage of Earthly Immortal, then theoretically speaking, as long as you can fully utilize the power of the origin of the world, it is possible to contend with him."
It only takes one or two breaths for this thought to come to mind.
While Lu Chen was communicating with the Dragon Soul, the old man said impatiently:
"Boy, my patience is limited. You'd better make a decision quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Lu Chen's heart trembled, but he quickly regained his composure.
He knew that in this situation, any hasty action could lead to irreversible consequences.
Based on the Dragon Soul's instructions, he quickly worked out a feasible battle plan.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Chen's mind moved, and he quickly communicated with the eight world origins in his body. In an instant, a special power flashing with eight colors of light appeared in his body.
This power gathered into a powerful torrent, instantly filling his entire body.
He felt an unprecedented surge of energy, as if the whole world was at his disposal.
"Okay, I'm willing to hand over that thing." Lu Chen's voice was calm, but he was already prepared for a duel in his heart.
Hearing this, the old man showed a smug smile on his face, but his eyes remained alert.
He slowly raised the staff in his hand, which emitted a faint blue light and was obviously extraordinary.
"Very good, a man of insight is a wise man. You are much smarter than the previous guardian." The old man nodded and motioned Lu Chen to step forward.
Because the old man knew very well that if Lu Chen could come out of the plane barrier by himself, it would definitely be much better than him doing it himself.
After all, he still understands the principle of not violating the rules of nature if possible.
