Chapter 1450 The Wrong Decision
As soon as he finished speaking, a slight commotion arose in the crowd, clearly indicating that some people were uneasy and worried about the upcoming journey.
Seeing this, Yun Tianqi raised his hand to signal everyone to remain calm. "I know you are all very nervous, but please believe that as long as we work together, there is no difficulty that we cannot overcome."
Then he turned to the elders and briefly explained the arrangements for the route and safety.
Then, facing the entire clan once more, he said in a firm and powerful voice, "Before we set off, I would like to emphasize again that this migration is a major test for our Youqiong clan, but also a new beginning. I hope that everyone will abide by the rules and obey the elders' arrangements during the journey."
As Yun Tianqi finished speaking, people began to gather in an orderly fashion, preparing to embark on a journey full of unknowns.
"We will obey the decree." Upon hearing this, the members of the Youqiong clan all bowed in response.
Next, Yun Tianqi took out a crystal-clear jade tablet from his storage ring. The jade tablet looked ordinary, but Lu Chen could tell that it was a key that could activate the formation.
Then, a surge of powerful divine energy flowed from Yun Tianqi's palm and poured into the jade tablet.
In an instant, strange ripples began to appear in the sky of the small world, as if a huge stone had been thrown into a calm lake, and ripples spread out rapidly.
Immediately afterwards, to everyone's astonishment, a long and narrow spatial rift slowly tore through the sky, emitting a deep and distant rumble.
"Set off."
At this moment, Yun Tianqi's voice rang out again, powerful and clear, piercing through the deafening roar.
As his words fell, the clansmen, who were already prepared, cast spells and gracefully soared into the air, rushing towards the spatial rift. Seeing this, Lu Chen no longer hesitated and followed closely behind the group, flying into the rift.
After a blinding flash of light, Lu Chen and the others found themselves at the bottom of the pool they had been in before.
The surroundings were dark and deep, with only a few faint rays of light refracting through the water's surface, creating a hazy play of light and shadow.
As everyone rose rapidly, they soon emerged from the water and appeared above the icy pool.
At this moment, the group had no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery around them. They knew that time was of the essence and they had to leave Nanman County as soon as possible.
So, led by Yun Tianqi, everyone quickly adjusted their direction and sped off to the north.
For safety reasons, the group deliberately lowered their flight altitude, flying almost close to the ground, in order to be ready to deal with any potential dangers at any time.
At this moment, Yun Kebo came to Lu Chen's side and asked through divine sense, "Brother Lu, I am really sorry, I may not be able to follow you for a while, but don't worry, I will definitely continue to follow you after my people are settled."
"Brother Yun, we can talk about following you later. No one could have predicted that the Youqiong Clan would suffer such a calamity. However, I will accompany you north until you are settled," Lu Chen comforted him through telepathic communication.
Before obtaining the map jade slip, Lu Chen had no intention of leaving the Youqiong Clan. He also planned to find an opportunity to examine Yun Tianqi's storage ring.
Just as Lu Chen was deep in thought, his expression suddenly became alert, because his divine sense detected that a large group of cultivators were rushing towards them. According to Lu Chen's calculations, they would meet in a few minutes.
"Everyone be careful, there's something ahead!"
At this moment, Yun Tianqi loudly reminded everyone and waved for them to stop. As a powerful expert in the Transformation Realm, he had obviously noticed the anomaly.
"Oh no, those people are from the Holy Sound Pavilion, including the Dao Sound Saint. Their appearance here is definitely aimed at us. What should we do?" said Yun Xuanming, whose cultivation was also at the Transformation Realm.
"It's too late. There are also many cultivators rushing this way from other directions. I guess they are from the Five Great Holy Sects. Now we can only fight them." Yun Shoucheng said with a worried look on his face. His eyes revealed a resolute look, as if he was prepared to perish together with the enemy.
However, just as everyone was falling into despair, Yun Fengyuan frowned for a moment and then decisively stopped them, saying, "Absolutely not! If a conflict breaks out, we will definitely be wiped out. Young friend Lu Chen has a small world. We can temporarily hide in the small world. With young friend Lu Chen's strength, he can definitely lead us to break out alone."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding air seemed to freeze, and everyone turned their gaze to Lu Chen. Some were surprised, while others hesitated.
Lu Chen looked at Yun Fengyuan in shock upon hearing this, never expecting him to come up with such a terrible idea.
He secretly thought to himself that once they entered the Golden Pearl World, he definitely wouldn't release them. However, on the surface, Lu Chen remained calm and didn't reveal any unusual emotions.
In fact, Yun Fengyuan had his reasons for saying that.
Not long after Lu Chen left, he searched for Lu Chen, almost turning the entire small world upside down, but he couldn't find a trace of Lu Chen.
Therefore, he concluded that Lu Chen must possess powerful concealment techniques in order to avoid him continuing to demand the Sun Chasing Sacred Bow.
If they were to enter Lu Chen's small world, then with Lu Chen's abilities, he would definitely be able to escape his current predicament.
After a moment's thought, Yun Tianqi, the clan leader, surprisingly agreed to the proposal. "In that case, let's temporarily avoid the limelight and hide in young friend Lu Chen's small world," he said slowly, his voice revealing an undeniable determination.
As the enemy drew closer, Lu Chen took a deep breath. Although he was filled with mixed emotions, he knew that there seemed to be no other choice at this moment.
So he nodded slightly and agreed, since acting alone would indeed be much better. In his heart, he thought to himself, "Brother Yun, I'm sorry, this is not my fault, you came to me of your own accord."
As the crowd approached, Lu Chen's divine sense quickly enveloped the hundred or so people. Then, with a thought, the crowd vanished from their spot in the next second.
Lu Chen, on the other hand, unleashed the power of the Great Dao's origin, "I am the earth," merging his figure into the earth before speeding northward.
Just a few breaths after Lu Chen and the Yun clan disappeared, a large group of cultivators swarmed in like a tide.
The leader was none other than Dao Yin Shengren, an elder of the Sacred Sound Pavilion. His long blue robe fluttered in the wind, and he held an exquisite jade flute in his hand. His face was as cold and stern as frost.
His gaze, sharp as a blade, swept quickly around the area before he gritted his teeth and said:
"How could this happen? How could those people have suddenly vanished without a trace?"
The cultivators following behind also looked puzzled, with some whispering among themselves, "Could it be that they used a teleportation talisman?"
The other person shook his head and said, "Impossible. Even if the Great Teleportation Talisman was used, it should still cause spatial fluctuations."
At this moment, a fierce glint flashed across Daoyin Saint's face. He suddenly raised his hand, and an invisible wave rapidly spread out, covering an area of hundreds of miles.
This was his unique method of detection, capable of sensing even the slightest energy fluctuations. However, even with such powerful detection abilities, he still found no useful clues…
