Chapter 1474 Encountering an Old Friend in the Divine Realm

It turned out that as soon as Gu Beichen's maid discovered that Lu Chen, whom she had been following, was just an avatar of his, she immediately used her divine sense to search for Lu Chen's whereabouts.

Because he didn't believe that Lu Chen could escape her spiritual sense range in such a short time, Lu Chen did indeed reappear after persisting for most of the day.

Then, she flashed and followed after him. Lu Chen, of course, was unaware of all this; he was currently flying at top speed towards Zhongtong County…

Although the Divine Realm is a broken world, its area is boundless. In this world where resources are scarce and the strong prey on the weak, most people only think about their own path to enlightenment and don't care about the lives of others.

It was precisely because of this that Lu Chen witnessed countless brutal killings during his days and nights of flying.

The sky always seemed shrouded in a layer of gloom, as if it were the condensation of the grief and anger of countless living beings on this land.

On this vast and boundless land, the scarcity of resources forces people to fight for survival, and the law of the jungle becomes the only rule here.

As Lu Chen flew over a desolate area, he witnessed a fierce battle.

Two groups are engaged in a life-or-death struggle for a seemingly valuable herb.

The divine herb emitted a faint light, subtly containing the aura of the Great Dao, which could enhance the strength of cultivators.

However, in this cruel world, obtaining this precious resource often comes with bloodshed and sacrifice.

Neither side would yield, and amidst the flashing blades, lives were torn apart as easily as fragile paper.

But Lu Chen only glanced at it briefly before continuing on his journey.

He was not unmoved, but he knew that on this cruel land, everyone was struggling for their own survival and would do anything for that sliver of a chance to attain enlightenment.

In this process, morality and conscience are often forgotten. Lu Chen himself has experienced countless life-and-death trials and understands that on this path of cultivation, one must make choices.

As he continued his journey, Lu Chen came across the ruins of an abandoned city.

The once magnificent building is now nothing but ruins, a testament to its past glory and present decay. Here, he witnessed an even more brutal battle.

Two factions engaged in a desperate struggle for the last remaining usable resources in the city. Flames raged, reflecting the ferocious faces of the cultivators, who had lost all semblance of their former refined demeanor.

In just a moment, the scene was a river of blood, and the air was filled with a strong, nauseating stench of blood.

Seeing this, Lu Chen sighed softly and chose to continue on his way...

When Lu Chen arrived at a vast and boundless Gobi Desert, he discovered that a fierce battle was taking place on the ground ahead.

A cultivator dressed in a green robe, wielding a long sword that gleamed with a cold light, was engaged in a fierce battle with a gigantic celestial beast, a centipede.

This centipede was over ten zhang long, and its entire body was covered with incredibly hard scales. Each scale shimmered with a crimson light, as if it were burning with a raging fire.

Its countless slender and flexible legs moved swiftly, creating gusts of wind and sending sand and stones flying wherever it went, demonstrating its powerful strength and speed.

Lu Chen habitually scanned the area with his divine sense, and his eyes immediately narrowed.

Through his divine sense, he immediately recognized the giant centipede as the Crimson Demon Centipede, a type of immortal demon beast whose strength was comparable to that of a fully transformed divine essence, and whose ferocity was rare among its peers.

This celestial beast not only possesses extremely high defensive capabilities, but its venom is also very troublesome once it comes into contact with the skin.

The green-robed cultivator seemed to be at a disadvantage. Although his swordsmanship was exquisite and each move contained profound divine energy, he still seemed to be struggling when facing such a powerful enemy.

Realizing that if he didn't intervene soon, the cultivator would be severely injured even if he didn't die, Lu Chen decisively sped down the mountain.

Just as he approached the battlefield, he casually unleashed a wind blade.

This wind blade may seem simple, but it actually contains Lu Chen's terrifying strength and precise control.

The wind blade sliced ​​through the air like lightning, striking the giant centipede's body with a sharp whistling sound.

With a soft "whoosh," the wind blade pierced through the Crimson Centipede's hard shell as easily as cutting tofu, slicing it in two.

With a shrill roar, the terrifying-looking crimson centipede crashed to the ground, its massive body raising a cloud of dust.

The one who was rescued was an elderly man with a sage-like demeanor. At this moment, he realized that someone had come to his rescue. He quickly put away his long sword and looked at Lu Chen, respectfully cupping his hands in thanks. "Thank you for your help, senior. I encountered this beast while hunting for resources here. If it weren't for your timely rescue, I would probably not have escaped this calamity."

The old man's eyes revealed respect, clearly filled with awe for the powerful figure who could easily slay the Crimson Centipede.

However, to the old man's surprise, the other party did not show arrogance or indifference like ordinary high-level cultivators. Instead, he looked at him excitedly and asked, "Senior Yuqing, what are you doing here?"

Upon hearing this, the old man frowned slightly. In his memory, he did not recall any powerful figure who could recognize him at a glance.

Considering that the other party's strength had reached at least the Shaping Dao Realm, and that the person could accurately call out his name, indicating that the person knew him, the old man respectfully cupped his hands and replied, "Junior Yuqing greets Senior. May I ask what Senior's instructions are?"

Seeing this, Lu Chen's eyes flashed with a complicated expression. Back then, as one of the five half-saints of the human race, the Jade Purity Saint fought against the Myriad Manifestations Demon Lord and the Demon Lord Qi Ling in front of the seal leading to the God Realm. How spirited he was! Now, he was so cautious in front of him. It was truly a pity.

Indeed, this old man in the green robe is none other than the Jade Purity Saint.

Back then, a large number of human, demon, and monster cultivators mysteriously disappeared before the massive seal leading to the God Realm. Lu Chen had a guess that they might have been sent into the God Realm by the old Taoist priest using his extraordinary abilities.

To Lu Chen's surprise, he encountered the Jade Purity Saint as soon as he arrived in Zhongtong County, which is why Lu Chen couldn't wait to save him.

“Senior, my name is Lu Chen. I come from the same Immortal Realm as you. I saw you before, before the seal leading to the God Realm. However, I didn’t disappear with you. Instead, I entered the God Realm through the seal. I want to know what exactly happened back then…”

Next, Lu Chen recounted everything in detail about how, after chasing Sima Changchun, he discovered that the human, demon, and monster cultivators had suddenly vanished without a trace of fighting at the scene…
