Volume 6: The Mighty Starry Sky Chapter 690 "Burden"
However, after considering for a moment, the two geniuses, a man and a woman, in the Earth Profound Realm, still could not think of a proper solution.
Because there are too many uncertainties within the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pool, no matter how much you consider it, you can't be completely sure at this time.
After failing to come up with a proper solution, the two had no choice but to look away and put the matter aside for the time being, preparing to consider it again after entering the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pool.
At this moment, the space in front of the hall suddenly showed a slight fluctuation, and an old man in a gray robe and with gray hair seemed to condense out of thin air!
When this person's figure was only vaguely revealed, Li Xuanfeng instantly recognized that it was Liu Chen.
Seeing Liu Chen's figure, many monks in the hall immediately clasped their fists and bowed deeply, shouting in unison respectfully: "Greetings to Elder Liu!"
"No need to be so polite." Liu Chen said with a smile, and at the same time he raised his hand and waved it. Many monks immediately felt a gentle force lifting them up.
Liu Chen's gaze swept across the many cultivators in the hall. When he passed Li Xuanfeng, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he nodded slightly to him.
Although many cultivators noticed the smile on Great Elder Liu Chen's face, he just glanced at him, and no one knew that this smile was directed at Li Xuanfeng.
After three years of getting along, Liu Chen has become more appreciative of Li Xuanfeng, and discovered that not only does he have amazing talent, but he is also extremely steady in temperament, without the slightest hint of arrogance, which is simply incomparable to other geniuses in the Earthly Profound Realm.
After scanning the many cultivators in the hall, Liu Chen said solemnly: "Going to the Soul-Exterminating Thunder Pond this time is both a blessing and a challenge."
"There are many dangers in the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pond. You are all the best in our Huadan Sect. Please take care of yourselves and do everything within your ability. Don't take risks blindly."
Many monks immediately clasped their fists and thanked in unison: "Thank you for your concern, Great Elder!"
Liu Chen nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Since everyone is ready, let's set off immediately!"
As Liu Chen spoke, he raised his hand and waved his sleeves. Suddenly, a strong wind swept through the hall, and the astonishing power of cultivation instantly enveloped all the cultivators in the hall.
Many cultivators suddenly felt their eyes blurry, and when they regained their senses, they found themselves outside the sect!
Although the place where it appeared was just in the sky outside the Huadan Sect, the distance was not far, but it was moved out in an instant!
A trace of shock appeared in the eyes of Li Xuanfeng and many other cultivators. With just a casual wave of his sleeves, he could instantly move thousands of cultivators. Is this the terrifying cultivation level of a strong man in the third realm?
Moreover, this was a forced relocation without their consent, and they didn't even have a chance to resist!
Many people immediately had a horrified thought. If Liu Chen wanted to kill them, they would not have the qualifications to resist at all, and might even be dead before they even realize it!
After moving everyone out, Liu Chen took out a green sword and threw it out. The sword suddenly swelled up in the wind and instantly turned into a giant sword ten thousand feet in size.
Then Liu Chen waved his sleeves again, and appeared on the giant sword with many monks!
Not only that, Liu Chen also arranged many cultivators in an order, and all the cultivators above the Earth Profound Realm appeared at the tip of the giant sword and stood behind the great elder Liu Chen.
Li Xuanfeng and two geniuses from the Earth Profound Realm were among them, and the others were elders from the Earth Profound Realm.
Then Liu Chen raised his hand and pointed lightly forward. The giant sword shook slightly and instantly rushed towards the south at an extremely fast speed!
After the giant sword began to fly at a high speed, Liu Chen turned around and looked at the dozens of Earth Profound Realm cultivators standing behind him.
Then Liu Chen waved his sleeves, and a blurry light curtain suddenly formed, covering him and many Earth Profound Realm cultivators.
This is a technique of isolation, which can block out their figures and sounds to prevent them from being heard by others.
Seeing this scene, many Earth Profound Realm cultivators knew that Great Elder Liu Chen might have something to explain to them, and they were immediately alerted and ready to listen attentively.
As for the cultivators below the Earth Profound Realm, there was more envy in their eyes when they looked at them, and they wondered when they would be qualified to meet the Great Elder in person.
After setting up the isolation technique, Liu Chen smiled and said, "You will be the strongest group entering the Soul-Extinguishing Thunder Pond this time. You need to take good care of the disciples whose cultivation is below the Earthly Profound Realm. When you come out, I will reward you according to your performance!"
Many elders immediately said respectfully: "We will obey the orders of the great elder and do our best!"
There was no trace of surprise on their faces, as this had always been the tradition of the Huadan Sect. Every time they entered the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pond during their weakened period, the elders above the Dixuan Realm needed to do their best to protect the disciples below the Dixuan Realm.
What surprised them was that Liu Chen looked at Li Xuanfeng and said with a smile again:
"I believe everyone already knows that our sect recently recruited a genius alchemist in the Earthly Profound Realm. I hope you can focus on protecting him and not let him get into any accidents!"
A trace of helplessness suddenly emerged in the hearts of the two geniuses in the Earth Profound Realm. Just now, when they saw that Great Elder Liu Chen used the isolation technique to cover this place, they guessed that he might bring up this matter, and it turned out to be just as expected.
Hearing Liu Chen's words, everyone looked at Li Xuanfeng. Liu Chen smiled and waved, "Little friend Li, come forward."
There was a hint of weirdness on Li Xuanfeng's face, but he had no choice but to follow his instructions and walked forward from behind.
Liu Chen introduced with a smile: "This person is the genius I recruited, Li Xuanfeng. After entering the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pool, I hope everyone will do their best to protect him."
At this moment, Li Xuanfeng was in a state of confusion. He had never expected that Liu Chen would actually let so many elders take care of him...
Many elders smiled and said, "If we meet Little Friend Li, we will definitely do our best to protect him."
Li Xuanfeng had no choice but to bow to the elders and said, "Thank you, elders!"
After hearing the solemn assurance from the elder of Dixuan Realm, Liu Chen nodded with relief, and then dissipated the isolation technique of this place.
Because cultivators above the Tianxuan Realm were not allowed to enter the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pool this time, Liu Chen was unable to enter, so the task of protecting the many disciples could only be given to these Dixuan Realm elders.
Although the Dixuan Realm elders can only be regarded as low-level elders in the Huadan Sect, we can only entrust this matter to them now.
After lifting the isolation technique, Liu Chen activated his cultivation and said solemnly: "Everyone, please remember the many elders in front of me. If you meet them in danger, you can ask them for help!"
After hearing this, many disciples were suddenly alerted, and immediately memorized all the elders of the Earth Profound Realm very carefully, even the three Earth Profound Realm geniuses including Li Xuanfeng.
They knew that the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pool was full of dangers and there was no clever way to escape. If they really encountered dangers that they could not face, these elders would be their lifelines and they must remember them.
Originally, the status of the elders in the Earth Profound Realm was indeed not high, and many disciples could not recognize many of them, but this time they remembered them one by one very carefully.
These Earth Profound Realm elders couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. They had always been relatively transparent figures in the sect, and it seemed that they had never been so prominent...
These elders also memorized the appearances of many disciples to avoid making mistakes later.
Because there were so many disciples and it was not easy to remember them all, some elders even took out jade slips to record the current scene and recorded it on the slips for later comparison.
While memorizing the appearance of each elder, many disciples continued to communicate and inquire about the names of each elder, causing a loud sound wave to suddenly reverberate from the giant sword.
At this time, the two Tianjiao of the Earthly Profound Realm looked at each other and walked up to Li Xuanfeng. The man clasped his fists and bowed to Li Xuanfeng, smiling and saying, "Welcome to join the Huadan Sect, Fellow Daoist Li. My name is Jiang Chen."
The woman did not salute, but simply said, "Yang Xue."
Li Xuanfeng clasped his fists respectfully and said, "Greetings, senior brothers and sisters. I haven't come to see you since I came to the sect, please don't blame me."
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, Jiang Chen and Yang Xue's eyes flashed with surprise. They didn't expect that Li Xuanfeng would take the initiative to mention his mistakes and even expressed his apologies.
Originally, they did have some resentment towards Li Xuanfeng's arrogance, but now it was difficult for them to question him.
Thinking of this, the two of them immediately looked at Li Xuanfeng for a second time. They didn't expect that this person, who seemed to be ignorant of etiquette, had his own way of speaking. He took the initiative to bring up the matter to prevent them from raising it later to express their dissatisfaction.
Jiang Chen smiled and said, "It's okay. After entering the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pool, you can follow the two of us so that we can take care of you."
Li Xuanfeng's eyes flickered slightly, but he immediately said, "Thank you for your care, senior brother and sister."
Yang Xue, who was wearing a plain white dress, nodded coldly. She and Jiang Chen had already agreed to join forces in the Soul-Destroying Thunder Pool. Now she just needed to follow the instructions of Elder Liu Chen and protect Li Xuanfeng, the "burden".
While everyone was remembering each other, the giant sword did not stop at all and continued to rush towards the south at an extremely fast speed.
Li Xuanfeng turned his head and looked at the ground below, and found that the scene nearby was already quite blurry and was changing rapidly!
Even the scenery that is very far away will flash by in an instant!
Seeing this scene, Li Xuanfeng couldn't help but be slightly startled. He didn't expect that standing on this giant sword , even he could hardly see the nearby scenery!
From this we can see how amazing the speed of this giant sword is at this moment!
According to Li Xuanfeng's estimation, if Great Elder Liu Chen had not set up protection outside the giant sword, most of the cultivators would have been torn to pieces by the violent gusts of wind generated by the speeding giant sword!
Because there are so many cultivators this time, Liu Chen cannot use the method of traveling through space to move forward, for fear of not being able to completely protect all the cultivators, causing someone to be injured by the turbulence in space.
But despite this, Liu Chen still managed to reach the speed of the third realm by urging the giant sword, and flew rapidly towards the southernmost part of Hongyuan Star!
