Lu Chen was still unaware that by suddenly exposing Jun Bell, the terrifying aura of devouring directly frightened Yellow Scorpion Master and Lu Chanchu, subtly damaging the relationship with Three Poisons Wanderer.
Because of this, Zhao Centipede, Yellow Scorpion Master, and Lu Chanchu began to find the situation somewhat amusing.
"You little brat, are you looking for death? Do you know that?" Zhao Centipede was furious, temporarily directing his anger towards Lu Chen, as Lu Chen was indeed the main culprit.
However, Zhao Centipede was also very afraid that Lu Chen would really sever his Flesh.
The Yin Spirit had been struck twice without major harm, but Flesh was a physical body that could not withstand such slashing.
Unless one was a master of Qigong or Three-Stage Divine Power Golden Body, whose bones were as strong as steel and whose blood was like mercury, making them impervious to blades and spears.
"Zhao Centipede, even a cornered rabbit will bite. You forced me into this. If you dare to take another step forward, I, Lu Chen, will pay any price to cut your Flesh first."
Lu Chen held Jun Bell in his hand, aiming it at Zhao Centipede and the others. He became somewhat frantic; Jun Bell desperately devoured everything, forcing Yellow Scorpion Master and Lu Chanchu back three hundred steps.
At this moment, Zhao Centipede's Flesh had already been absorbed into Jun Bell but remained in a seated position on the ground.
With Lu Chen's current strength, he indeed lacked the ability to sacrifice a Flesh weighing one or two hundred pounds. However, using Jun Bell to devour it was a different matter altogether.
Zhao Centipede attempted several times to launch a surprise attack but seeing Lu Chen's determined expression, he ultimately had to give up and angrily said, "Lu Chen, you are truly vicious. I will remember your name."
At this point, Zhao Centipede and Lu Chen were in a standoff. Zhao Centipede held Lu Chen's Demon-Slaying Sword while Lu Chen used Jun Bell to consume Zhao Centipede's Flesh. They each had a grip on each other's weaknesses and were locked in a stalemate.
As for Yellow Scorpion Master and Lu Chanchu, they did not dare to approach for fear of being accidentally absorbed by Jun Bell.
In this brief moment of pause, influenced by the terrifying aura of Jun Bell, Killing and others soon gathered from Mountain Valley.
They all stood three hundred steps away, not daring to approach even half a step.
Killing frowned, a look of doubt appearing on his young and handsome face. He said to the person beside him, "That seems to be Jun Bell, the life-bound artifact of King Jun from Yuanrong Immortal Island, which can communicate with Intentions. Why is it here?"
At this moment, everyone's conversation revolved around the Jun Bell in Lu Chen's hand, as its powers were truly incredible.
"Amitabha Buddha, that is indeed one of the Nine-Dragon Seats from Xuan Huang Sect, the Jun Seat Master, King Jun's life-bound artifact. Sixty years ago, I met him and even exchanged blows; I am not unfamiliar with Jun Bell. However, it appearing in the hands of this young man is truly astonishing!"
The Great Strength Monk's words sounded somewhat like a monologue and also like a question, carrying a hint of weariness, as if he had returned to sixty years ago when he faced King Jun.
"This child holds King Jun's Jun Bell; could he be King Jun's disciple?" Killing wondered aloud.
The Great Strength Monk shook his head and pondered, "It’s unlikely. Jun Bell is an extremely important artifact that connects with King Jun's Intentions and can store items; it is a treasure among treasures. King Jun would not easily give it to anyone. Moreover, look at the Black Greatsword in this child's hand; it is a standard sword provided by the Five Element Sect for Inner Sect Disciples. In my view, this child should belong to the Five Element Sect."
"People from the Five Element Sect?"
Killing and those beside him were slightly surprised, feeling that the situation was very complicated.
Killing said, "What is the Five Element Sect? How could an Inner Sect Disciple possess King Jun's life-bound artifact? I think things are not that simple. It’s rumored that King Jun's brother, Chuan Ru Mage, was exterminated on an island not far from here and lost an extremely important artifact. I wonder if it is this Jun Bell."
The Great Strength Monk quietly listened to Killing's analysis without commenting. He shifted to another topic and said, "Brother Centipede and this child are currently at a stalemate; they seem to have mutual support and are finding it difficult to back down."
After a pause, the Great Strength Monk slowly continued, "This child is indeed remarkable; at his age, he has already entered Unity of Man through Qigong cultivation and has also cultivated both life and spirit. His Yin Spirit is close to Manifestation of the Dharma Body. In the future, there may be another master of law and martial arts in the Jianghu. Amitabha Buddha."
The Great Strength Monk's breath was steady; his speech was neither hurried nor slow, displaying a composure far beyond ordinary people.
He might not know that Lu Chen was actually from Eastern Shaolin in his early years. Although there wasn't much of a relationship with the Great Strength Monk, there was still a bit of a connection.
"What does Master Ruyin think?" Killing asked directly without hesitation.
He was naturally referring to the matter between Lu Chen and Zhao Centipede. It was time for them to choose sides and establish their relationships as friends or foes.
"Amitabha Buddha, what do you think, benefactor?"
The Great Strength Monk joined his hands together, bowed his head, and chanted a phrase before turning the question back to Killing.
Killing smiled lightly and was about to speak when Xiangyi stepped forward and tapped his shoulder, saying in a sharp voice, "Master, that person looks a bit like Lu Chen."
"Lu Chen? Which Lu Chen?"
Killing frowned. He had never heard of the name Lu Chen, but somehow he felt that the figure of Lu Chen looked somewhat familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
At that moment, Huang Jiao also approached. Princess Xiangyi cleared her throat and continued, "Ahem, Lu Chen is my appointed Grand Commander. You may have forgotten, but you all remember what happened at Killing Green Mountain."
"Killing Green Mountain."
Killing's smile faded, and his expression grew increasingly serious. How could he easily forget the battle with Old Demon Li Shian at Killing Green Mountain?
Although he ultimately severely injured Li Shian, the cost to himself was also immense; Flesh was pushed off a cliff and completely destroyed. Later, he had to seize another body to be reborn, wasting over a decade of cultivation and suffering nearly irreparable losses.
"Is it him? That mixed-breed?" As Killing recalled his own experiences, anger surged within him. It turned out that Lu Chen was actually his enemy. Now it seemed clear which side he would take.
“Master, how do you plan to deal with him?” Princess Xiangyi asked, her emotions quite complex at that moment. First of all, it was a miracle that Lu Chen was not dead, and now he was thriving. His fortune and future were immeasurable, clearly on the path to becoming a formidable expert.
Was Princess Xiangyi also among them? Although she usually acted a bit domineering, she certainly understood the importance of recruiting powerful individuals to serve her. If Lu Chen had not left Korea and had stayed to serve in Han Wangfu, wouldn’t he have been one of their own? In the future, if Korea were to rise up, the impact of having a powerful expert would be unimaginable.
Subtly, Princess Xiangyi felt a twinge of regret in her heart.
However, Killing was not impressed. He coldly snorted and said, “What should we do? Of course, we repay him in kind. He destroyed my Flesh, so I will make him pay back double. Moreover, if I can seize the Jun Bell from him for my own use, that would be even better.”
“Amitabha Buddha, it would be wise for you to be cautious. After all, he possesses the Jun Bell, which is incredibly powerful. I fear that if he feels cornered, he might do something detrimental to Brother Zhao Centipede,” Great Strength Monk advised Killing while muttering Lu Chen’s name under his breath, not knowing what Dao Heart was thinking.
“Which side is Master Ruyin on?” Killing asked with a mysterious smile at Great Strength Monk.
Great Strength Monk sighed and avoided the topic of sides. “Jun Bell again; I was defeated by this bell sixty years ago. I never expected to encounter it again after sixty years, still without any means to deal with it.”
In his words, Great Strength Monk revealed his apprehension towards Jun Bell. Qi Master and Yin Master counter each other; Qi Master has a slight advantage in close combat, but facing formidable magical artifacts changes everything.
Killing smiled and asked, “Is Master Ruyin afraid? I could easily break this boy’s Jun Bell, but only if it doesn’t harm Senior Zhao Centipede.”
Killing's statement was not meant to mock; after all, in front of so many people, he could not reveal his ambitions.
“In my opinion, the stalemate between this boy and Senior Zhao Centipede won’t last long. We might as well wait outside until their battle concludes and then immediately capture him. At that point, all our questions will be easily resolved,” Killing suggested.
“Good idea! Brother has a great suggestion; let’s do it this way,” echoed the Yellow Scorpion Master and others nearby.
In an instant, Killing and the others reached an agreement, waiting three hundred steps away, prepared to act as soon as there were changes in the situation between Lu Chen and Zhao Centipede, and then immediately move to capture Lu Chen.
With experts like Great Strength Monk supporting them, they naturally did not need to worry about the Five Element Sect.
Just as everyone had everything planned and were waiting for an accident to occur with Lu Chen and Zhao Centipede, a cold wind suddenly blew in from the outside. In an instant, it felt as if the entire Wind Blinder Archipelago had entered winter, bringing a chilling sensation.
Killing and the others raised their heads to look up at the sky, as this sudden cold wind had caught them completely off guard.
Suddenly, Killing shouted, "It's Ye Laomo who has arrived."
"Ye Laomo?"
Upon hearing this, everyone knew without a doubt that it was Ye Nanzhai, the leader of the Red Robe Sect and Eastern Sea Sect, known as Ye Laomo.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt a chill in their hearts, sensing the boundless killing intent in the air.
At the same time, a black dot appeared from the side and quickly approached them. Its target was aimed simultaneously at Killing and Great Strength Monk.
