Chapter 620: Chapter 368: Used Less Than 10% of Strength_1
Seeing these flying leaves, Lu Chen was unimpressed.
Just as the leaves were about to touch Lu Chen's body, the surrounding space-time suddenly paused, and the leaves all hung in mid-air.
A moment later, the leaves wilted down, fluttering through the sky before slowly falling to the ground.
Seeing this, Eternally Mysterious Taoist's face darkened.
He hadn't expected Lu Chen to block his attack so easily; he hadn't even seen how Lu Chen made his move.
No, to be precise, Lu Chen didn't make a move at all!
What was going on?
For a moment, Eternally Mysterious Taoist felt a strong sense of crisis.
At this moment, the forest suddenly became eerily quiet, so quiet that it seemed one could hear their own heartbeat.
Just then, Eternally Mysterious Taoist suddenly made a move again. Countless flying leaves merged into one, and a tangible current of air echoed around his body, swirling the leaves into more than a dozen tornadoes.
The leaves spun steadily in the tornadoes, and soon sword lights appeared.
Eternally Mysterious Taoist didn't believe that Lu Chen could block his attack this time. Seeing Eternally Mysterious Taoist use this move, the disciples of Fixed Wind Mountain exclaimed one after another.
"Whirlwind!"
"This is the old ancestor's signature move!"
"I don't believe that the North Prince can block it this time!"
"Such terrifying power... I never thought I'd see the old ancestor use Whirlwind in my lifetime!"
...
After the tornadoes flew towards Lu Chen, the sword lights inside trembled non-stop, and the power of the tornadoes was terrifying. Everywhere it passed, it ground trees into powder.
This move indeed had great power, but Lu Chen still stood in place, unmoving.
Seeing Lu Chen still standing, Eternally Mysterious Taoist was puzzled.
He couldn't believe anyone could easily catch this move. Even if the other party was a Pseudo Celestial, even the Master of Divine Communication wouldn't dare to face this move head-on. Yet the North Prince was just standing there, unmoved!
Could it be that the North Prince was so intimidated by this move that he forgot to dodge at first?
While Eternally Mysterious Taoist was in a state of confusion, suddenly an elder walked up to Lu Chen's side.
Only then did people realize that there was an old man who looked like an ordinary person next to Lu Chen.
This...
What was this old man doing here?
Just as Eternally Mysterious Taoist and the disciples of Fixed Wind Mountain were baffled, they saw the elder slowly raise his hand, and the next moment, an immense pressure released from the elder's body.
Immediately after, a tangible force of Spiritual Power transformed into a huge palm print that shot toward those tornadoes.
Eternally Mysterious Taoist's face changed dramatically!
This wasn't good!
Before he could warn the people of Fixed Wind Mountain to take cover, the palm print had already quelled the Whirlwind. But it wasn't over; the palm print did not dissipate.
In an instant, Eternally Mysterious Taoist felt an overwhelming sense of despair. He wasn't a fool. Anyone who could so easily block his Whirlwind and unleash such a terrifying pressure was definitely not an ordinary person, and certainly not a Pseudo Celestial like them. This elder's strength was undoubtedly Above Celestials.
What realm is Above Celestials? That would be a Celestial!
North Country actually had a Celestial!
How was that possible!
After the incident with Zhuge Zhongguang, people thought that North Country was merely bluffing under the guise of a "Celestial," that North Country couldn't possibly have a Celestial, which is why they dressed up Zhuge Zhongguang as one.
The Celestial had actually appeared before them!
If they had known that North Country possessed a Celestial, they would have never come to North Country, let alone cooperate with the Sum Emperor, or even leave the mountains in the first place.
For a moment, Eternally Mysterious Taoist was filled with immense regret; they should never have come to North Country.
Eternally Mysterious Taoist clenched his teeth and immediately circulated his full skill throughout his body.
So what if it's a Celestial!
He was, after all, a Pseudo Celestial!
He refused to believe that a Pseudo Celestial had no chance of fighting back in the presence of a Celestial.
With that thought, Eternally Mysterious Taoist converged all his skill into a roaring dragon.
The dragon charged straight towards Xuanyuan Chaoge's palm imprint.
As soon as the palm imprint made contact with the dragon, it exploded instantly, and the subsequent shockwave from the explosion sent warriors of lower realms flying.
When the aftershocks of the explosion had subsided, people could finally see Eternally Mysterious Taoist's condition; he was covered in blood, his clothes in tatters, hanging in strips.
But he did not fall, still standing in his place, and he said with a laugh, "Hahaha, this old man has blocked the attack of a Celestial!"
"What of Celestials! Even if this old man is not a Celestial, nobody can take this old man's life!"
Hearing this, Lu Chen asked Xuanyuan Chaoge who stood beside him, "How much strength did you use?"
Xuanyuan Chaoge replied, "This old servant feared accidentally obliterating him, body and spirit, so I used less than ten percent of my strength."
Hearing Xuanyuan Chaoge's reply, Lu Chen was momentarily stunned.
Ten percent?
The strength of Celestials was truly terrifying indeed.
It seemed that although there was only a single word difference between Celestial and Pseudo Celestial, the disparity was as vast as heaven and earth.
At that moment, Lu Chen continued, "You need not take action anymore; leave the rest to this prince."
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Chaoge hesitated for a moment, then quickly said, "Your Majesty, be careful, although he is severely injured, a cornered dog will leap over a wall, and if he plans to self-destruct his Dantian later, it will be difficult for you to avoid it."
Lu Chen indifferently said, "It doesn't matter, before this prince, self-destructing his Dantian won't be so easy."
During the conversation, Lu Chen launched himself with a push of his legs, charging straight at Eternally Mysterious Taoist.
Seeing Lu Chen take action, the disciples from Fixed Wind Mountain instantly panicked, and an Elder from Fixed Wind Mountain swiftly moved to shield Eternally Mysterious Taoist.
He was at the Grandmaster level, and he thought that since the other party was only a Pseudo Celestial, he should be able to block it.
However, as Lu Chen was about to reach them, he suddenly drew a longsword. Lu Chen rarely personally took action, but his moves were incredibly proficient.
The next moment, Lu Chen swung his sword, sending countless beams of Sword Qi towards the Grandmaster Elder like surging waves, as the Elder hastily tried to defend himself with his skill.
But in the next instant, he was sent flying, yet the Sword Qi did not hurt Eternally Mysterious Taoist, as a tangible protective shield appeared before him.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen said with a smile, "I didn't expect you to still have some energy left!"
Eternally Mysterious Taoist snorted coldly and said, "You petulant child, to think you can kill me! Utterly delusional!"
In the midst of speaking, Eternally Mysterious Taoist suddenly took out a stone. Seeing this, Xuanyuan Chaoge's face changed dramatically. He was about to warn Lu Chen when a terrifying power exploded instantly.
Lu Chen reacted quickly, retreating speedily and then using his Protective Gang Qi to fend off the explosion.
After the explosion had ended, Eternally Mysterious Taoist was nowhere to be seen, and Lu Chen immediately realized that the man had seen he couldn't win, so he had decided to escape.
Lu Chen promptly said to Xuanyuan Chaoge, "Lord Xuanyuan, bring him back!"
No sooner had Lu Chen's words fallen than Xuanyuan Chaoge's body disappeared from the spot. At this moment, Lu Chen glanced at the people from Fixed Wind Mountain, noticing their loyalty was largely negative. Knowing he couldn't win them over, he directly instructed the soldiers behind him, "Kill them all!"
The next moment, the sounds of cannon and gunfire echoed through the woods, and soon only bodies were left scattered everywhere.
