Chapter 1454 Powerful Methods
After successfully stopping the two, Lu Chen looked at Yun Kuihai and Yun Fengyuan, whose faces were filled with anger and unease, with a puzzled expression.
"What are you two doing? Why are you fighting all of a sudden?"
At this moment, the emotions that had been running high due to the argument instantly cooled down, and everyone looked at Lu Chen with awe, not daring to look him in the eye.
Lu Chen glanced around and saw that everyone looked very afraid of him. Although he guessed some of the reasons, he still pointed to a younger-looking clansman and asked, "You tell me what's going on?"
When the young clansman was called out, a complex look flashed in his eyes, clearly indicating that he was going through a fierce internal struggle.
After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally mustered up the courage to briefly recount what had happened.
It turned out that when the Youqiong clan entered the Golden Pearl World, they discovered that it was not a small world at all, but a chaotic world.
If word of such a complete and vast chaotic world were to leak out, Lu Chen would likely become the common enemy of the entire Divine Script Domain, with countless powerful figures and forces hunting him down by any means necessary.
Therefore, the members of the Youqiong clan immediately understood the implications and realized that they would probably never be able to leave this chaotic world again.
Therefore, they all blamed Yun Fengyuan, since it was he who made the suggestion; otherwise, they would not have been willing to enter Lu Chen's small world. The Third Elder, Yun Kuihai, even fought with Yun Fengyuan, which led to the scene of the two fighting each other just now.
After learning the reason behind the matter, Lu Chen was also surprised by everyone's thought process, but things were just as they had deduced, and he certainly wouldn't let them out easily.
Lu Chen's purpose in coming here was to find the jade slip containing the map of the secret realm during the era of the gods.
At this moment, Yun Fengyuan was looking at Lu Chen with mixed feelings, her heart filled with complex emotions.
As one of the elders of the Youqiong clan, he bears undeniable responsibility for the fact that his suggestions have led to his people being constrained in this situation.
So, Yun Fengyuan mustered all his courage and said to Lu Chen, "Young friend Lu Chen, do you think you can let us out? We can swear to the heavens that we will never leak any information about you."
“Yes, young friend Lu Chen, please, for the sake of our Qiong clan and your destiny, let us go. We will swear the most vicious oath that we will never betray you,” Yun Tianqi chimed in, seizing the opportunity.
In the crowd, Yun Shouyi nudged Yun Kebo with his elbow, signaling him to plead for mercy as well, but Yun Kebo remained unmoved and instinctively lowered his head.
Seeing this, the other clansmen also expressed their determination to Lu Chen, hoping that he would release them.
However, Lu Chen did not answer immediately after hearing this. He remained silent for a moment, as if weighing something.
The air was thick with tension and oppression, weighing heavily on everyone's hearts.
Lu Chen suddenly waved his arm lightly, and with this simple movement, the previously empty space instantly became filled with the figures of more than forty cultivators.
These people are the remnants of the Holy Sound Pavilion, and also the cultivators that Dao Yin Saint failed to take away in the small world using the Void Teleportation Talisman.
Their appearance was similar to that of the Youqiong clan; their faces were pale, and their eyes were filled with despair and confusion. Clearly, they too were aware of their fate.
Lu Chen had no intention of giving anyone present a chance to speak! He suddenly raised his hand and waved it, and an invisible, intangible, and imperceptible terrifying force, like a surging torrent, gushed out from his fingertips and swept in all directions with lightning speed.
In the blink of an eye, this terrifying power had firmly locked onto everyone in the arena, and then mercilessly extracted a tiny but crucial wisp of soul from their bodies!
Faced with such a sudden and ruthless turn of events, the few Dao Transformation Saint Emperors instinctively wanted to fight back, but no matter how hard they tried, they could only helplessly find that all their efforts were in vain.
In that heart-stopping moment, a piercing scream suddenly echoed throughout the entire venue, shrill and chilling.
At this moment, everyone's face was filled with fear and despair, their eyes fixed on Lu Chen, filled with nothing but horror...
After Lu Chen sealed everyone's souls in a jade tablet, the painful screams gradually faded away, and the entire space fell into a deathly silence.
He held the jade tablet that shimmered with a ghostly light, slowly scanning his surroundings, his gaze piercing the hearts of everyone like an ice blade.
"Everyone," Lu Chen said loudly, his voice like a great bell echoing in the silence, "no matter what the reason, now that you have come to my chaotic world, I will certainly not let you leave easily."
Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts tightened, and deep fear and unease were revealed in their eyes. The Youqiong clan members had thought that Lu Chen would agree to release them because of the fact that they had given him the Sun-Chasing Sacred Arrow.
Unexpectedly, Lu Chen not only failed to release them, but also extracted their souls. At this moment, all hope had been shattered.
At this moment, Lu Chen's voice came again:
"However, I can promise you that if one day my strength breaks through to the level of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, I will have sufficient ability to protect myself in this Divine Realm."
I will return your souls to you and let you depart in peace. But before that, you must do things for me, or you know the consequences.”
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a murmur arose from the crowd. Some looked unwilling, clearly not wanting to accept this arrangement; while others seemed even more desperate, knowing full well Lu Chen's strength and that they were powerless to resist.
Just then, a figure stepped out from the crowd. This person was an elder of the Holy Sound Pavilion, usually arrogant and unruly, but now his eyes were filled with anger.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. If we wait until he breaks through to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm, we'll probably be dead by now. We're going to die anyway, so we might as well fight him."
However, his words did not receive a response from the crowd. Clearly, no one wanted to be enemies with Lu Chen at this time. When no one responded to him, his arrogant attitude seemed to be extinguished instantly by a bucket of cold water.
Lu Chen's gaze instantly fell on him, and in an instant, an invisible aura swept over him like a storm.
The old man from the Holy Sound Pavilion felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, as if he were in an endless abyss, unable to breathe or move.
The next moment, he was as if he had been torn apart by an invisible force, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into nothingness and disappeared without a trace.
The whole process happened so fast that no one had time to react. Those who witnessed it all felt a chill run down their spines…
