Chapter 440: Help Me Block Them!



Chapter 440: Help Me Block Them!

Fang Chen said lightly, "Going out means death. It's better to wait for the three Nascent Soul Realm experts to free up their hands. If you have spare time, focus on restoring your strength. There's no need to listen to the nonsense of these Spirit Blood Sect scums."

The cultivators who were initially affected by Qian Wuji's words closed their eyes and began meditating to recover their strength.

Jiang Shun's expression turned gloomy. "This youngster has the potential to be a great general."

Even though he was relying on a treasure, it was quite admirable to be able to save everyone in such a situation. Moreover, he showed no fear in both speech and demeanor and looked very composed instead. Why was it that both Fang Tingyuan and his descendant possessed such talent?

Qian Wuju's expression didn't change when he heard Fang Chen call him a scum. He simply said, "If the Kunlong Battle General took care of the three Nascent Soul Realm experts and finds that we haven't yet refined Great Qian, I'm afraid he will be very displeased."

"Attack, break this lantern, and kill these cultivators. No one within the Great Qian Empire will be able to stop our progress!"

The next moment, Qian Wuji and the other two Golden Core Realm cultivators made their moves. They were not the only ones who attacked, as even those in the Foundation Building and Qi Refining Realm joined in to break the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern.

Under such a fierce attack, even the powerful Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern couldn't help but start to fluctuate slightly, and its green light began to flicker.

The consumption of the lantern oil intensified once again!

Fear appeared in the eyes of everyone inside. They weren't sure how much longer the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern could hold out.

Fang Chen spoke again. "Everyone, restore your strength as quickly as possible. Once they exhaust their energy, I will recall the lantern, and you will be responsible for eliminating these Spirit Blood Sect scums."

As soon as he finished speaking, the attacks from the Golden Core Realm cultivators outside slightly slowed down, indicating a visible decrease in their energy.

"The lord probably can't hold on much longer, or else he wouldn't deliberately say such words to make those Spirit Blood Sect cultivators ease their attacks," Fairy Yu deduced.

"Dongfang Haojie, refine this lantern," Fang Chen transmitted.

Dongfang Haojie was slightly surprised. "Me?"

"Yes," replied Fang Chen. "I can be one hundred percent sure that you are not a Spirit Blood Sect cultivator, so I trust you with this lantern."

Dongfang Haojie asked, "But... if you give me this lantern... what are you going to do?"

"Of course, I'm going to kill people. How long do you think we can hold on? The three Nascent Soul Realm experts are trapped by Kunlong Battle General, and that spells trouble. Qian Wuji and the others are eyeing us fiercely, but those are secondary issues. I can't do anything about Kunlong Battle General trapping the Nascent Soul experts, which is the main issue, but I can do something about these secondary issues," replied Fang Chen.

Suddenly, Dongfang Haojie remembered Fang Chen's incredible evasive technique and his incredible knowledge of things related to the Spirit Blood Sect. Even the warning about their plot against himself came from Fang Chen.

With these thoughts in mind, Dongfang Haojie felt a glimmer of hope. "Honestly, are you a Nascent Soul Realm senior?"

Fang Chen replied, "Me? I'm only at the twelfth stage of Qi Refining Realm. You have my word on this."

Dongfang Haojie's hope was shattered completely.

At the twelfth stage of Qi Refining Realm, what could Fang Chen do?

"Don't just stand there, start refining the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern immediately. I'll assist you."

"Alright!"

The onlookers then saw Dongfang Haojie walk up to Fang Chen and take away the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern from him, his spiritual energy surging.

“What is he trying to do!?” a Golden Core Realm cultivator shouted angrily. Just as he was about to intervene, Fang Chen spoke up. "The Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern will achieve its maximum effect in his hands, don't panic."

Everyone looked at each other in confusion.

With Fang Chen's assistance, Dongfang Haojie refined the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern in no time.

Qian Wuji and the others watched this scene with a hint of puzzlement.

Why would they entrust this item to Dongfang Haojie, a playboy from the Dongfang Family?

"With your blood essence as the lantern oil, the consumption of spiritual energy by the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern won't be significant. If the oil runs out, remember to replenish it," Fang Chen transmitted.

"Damn it, I'll just gamble with my lifespan," Dongfang Haojie said as he held the Dragon Bone Heavenly Lantern with a fierce look in his eyes.

Fang Chen's divine soul left his body and stood in the void.

Outside, the four Nascent Soul Realm Battle Generals still held the red stone stele, imprisoning the entire Great Qian Imperial Capital.

In the black mist, Immortal Void Rush, Immortal White Tiger, and Supreme Expert Dragon Wood sat on the ground. Immortal White Tiger and Supreme Expert Dragon Wood were sitting behind Immortal Void Rush, their hands placed on her back.

A terrifying force was brewing between the two sides, sometimes pushing toward Immortal Void Rush, sometimes toward the figure in the black robe.

Fang Chen furrowed his brow. "Is this person the Kunlong Battle General?"

It was clear that the four were in some kind of deadlock, and the Kunlong Battle General was indeed formidable enough to be able to hold his ground against the three of them alone.

“It seems like they've reached a kind of balance, but the surrounding black mist harbors danger. Even Golden Core Realm cultivators venturing in might have to pay the price,” remarked Fang Chen.

"We can only wait for one of the three to come out victorious. But before that, I can do one thing."

Returning to his body, Fang Chen called over the Fang Family disciples and then sat down, letting them surround him tightly to obscure outsiders' vision.

"What is this kid up to?" a Golden Core Realm cultivator frowned.

"Don't worry about it. He's just a minor character. Let's not waste time here. Some of us should go and cooperate with the Spirit Blood Sect cultivators to refine this place," suggested someone.

The three grand completion stage Golden Core Realm cultivators from Qian Wuji's group nodded lightly, and several early stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivators quickly left the hunting ground.

Fang Wanli gnashed his teeth in frustration. "They're going to kill people, but it's a pity we can't go out!"

He didn't notice the astonishment in the eyes of the Fang Family disciples surrounding Fang Chen, but they quickly regained their composure.

Li Daoye's eyes lit up. "We're almost at the hunting ground."

He looked cautious as he scanned around with his peripheral vision, afraid of being ambushed.

***

Suddenly, a figure broke through the air from the direction of the hunting ground. "Oh, you three aren't hiding but came here instead. Are you looking to take advantage of the chaos?"

Upon seeing Li Daoye and the others, the figure immediately stopped and looked at them with a smile. Before the three could react, the figure casually raised their sleeve, and a terrifying flying sword attacked them directly.

Li Daoye was stunned. "This aura! It's a Golden Core Realm!"

Given their cultivation levels, they simply couldn't withstand the attacks of a Golden Core Realm cultivator. Could he have failed in his calculation?! Is there hope for them?

"My son is in trouble!" Big Eyed Li shouted angrily. He grabbed Li Daoye and threw him behind, and at the same time, he grabbed Elder Mingjing to shield himself.

"Mingjing, help me block this. After you die, I'll build a memorial for you!"

"Damn it!" Elder Mingjing cursed, unable to do anything but watch as the flying sword attacked him.

However, the flying sword that was incoming fiercely suddenly lost control and plunged into the ground between Elder Mingjing’s legs. He felt a chill and immediately looked in the distance.

He saw an extra figure behind the Golden Core Realm cultivator. That figure held a long sword that pierced through that cultivator's head, right from his chin to the top of his head!

Fang Chen collected the cultivator's storage ring and took his high-grade, yellow-rank flying sword before looking at the three dumbfounded individuals.

"The hunting ground is very dangerous, and lives can be lost at any moment. If you want to survive, it's better to go to the outer city. The Spirit Blood Sect cultivators there generally have lower cultivation levels and are mostly in the Qi Refining Realm and Foundation Building Realm. Their Golden Core Realm experts are being kept busy within the inner capital and don't have the time to spare. By the way, Nong Guiquan is also in the outer capital right now."
