436: It's not hard to guess

But no matter how hard they tried, they could not break through Lu Xingchen's defense.

This was the effect caused by the gap in their Realms; their attacks couldn't break through Lu Xingchen's defense and could only consume the Spiritual Power on the "Dustless Land."

As long as Lu Xingchen's Soul Power did not run dry, they would never be able to defeat him.

Everyone had unleashed a powerful move, yet they failed to shake Lu Xingchen in the slightest.

They stopped their attack and bowed towards Lu Xingchen.

"Senior Brother Lu's strength is too formidable; we cannot shake him. In future actions, we will definitely follow Senior Brother Lu's lead!"

Lu Xingchen withdrew the barrier and chuckled, "It seems you know what's good for you!"

However, he felt a little guilty inside.

In just the past minute, his Soul Power had already been depleted by more than half just to maintain the "Dustless Land."

If these young Martial Artists had stubbornly refused to give up, he would have made a fool of himself.

But thankfully, they were sensible.

Lan Cang looked at Lu Xingchen and said in a deep voice, "Senior Brother Lu, when should we make our move?"

Lu Xingchen said softly, "I don't want to waste time. We'll charge over there as soon as dawn breaks tomorrow. Give me one night to recover from my injuries; I sustained some minor injuries when fighting Chu Huai earlier."

Hearing this, Lan Cang was shocked once again.

"You were able to fight us even while injured!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "What else?"

With that, he tossed an eighth-grade rejuvenation pill to Lan Cang.

"Your injuries aren't light either. Hurry up and recover!"

Lan Cang accepted the Medicinal Pill, and a hint of warmth entered his gaze as he looked at Lu Xingchen.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lu!"

"Someone, stand Protector for Senior Brother Lu! No one is allowed to approach until his injuries have recovered!"

Everyone dispersed. Lu Xingchen sat cross-legged on the ground and took out the blue bead.

After playing with it for a while, he understood the function of the bead.

It was a container that could temporarily store fighting Qi.

If fighting Qi consumption was too high during battle, one could absorb the fighting Qi within the bead to quickly restore combat strength.

Essentially, it was a power bank.

However, this bead was water-attributed and could only store fighting Qi of the corresponding attribute, making it ineffective for Lu Xingchen.

Since it was something he couldn't use immediately, he could only hand it over to the Human Emperor Hall.

Immediately, he took out the Spiritual Token provided by the Human Emperor Hall. When he lightly touched the blue bead to it, the blue bead turned into a white light and merged into the Spiritual Token.

The points displayed on the Spiritual Token increased from 0 to 100.

Lu Xingchen then invaded the Spiritual Token with his Soul Power to check the point rankings.

The point rankings were updated in real-time; anyone holding a Spiritual Token could check them at any time.

Less than a day had passed since entering the Liuxing Continent, and most people were still exploring, so few had gained points.

But the person ranked first was still Luo Chen, whose points had already reached five hundred.

He had only managed to gain one hundred points after finally killing that Flood Dragon, so how was Luo Chen racking up points so quickly?

Was he cheating?

Lu Xingchen immediately shook his head.

Forget it, there was no need to worry about such minor matters. Since ranking in the top one hundred guaranteed entry into the finals, the exact number of points was just a matter of Face.

He then tried placing the Spirit Medicine and Spiritual Artifacts he had obtained earlier onto the Spiritual Token.

Nothing happened.

That made sense. Since the Martial Arts Convention was so important, the powerful figures likely wouldn't give him a chance to exploit a bug.

At the same time, in the deepest part of the Chu Feng Mountain Range, in the room where Lu Xingchen had previously landed, Chu Huai was lying on a plush chair, listening to his subordinates report the situation.

"Boss, the situation is a bit grim! Lu Dazhuang isn't the only one who entered the Liuxing Continent this time. Over a hundred Human Martial Artists have appeared within the jurisdiction of our Chu Feng Valley. Not only are they powerful, but they are also very young."

Chu Huai sighed lightly and said in a deep voice, "It seems the Saints of the Tianyuan Continent found an entrance and sent young Human Race Martial Artists in for training. We are all just stepping stones for these young Human Race members to Cultivate!"

Hearing this, Xiong Zhuang showed a hint of indignation on his Face.

"Then what should we do? Should we just let them run rampant?"

Chu Huai said solemnly, "Of course not. Those Human Race brats invading our Chu Feng Valley territory are undoubtedly here to obtain Spirit Medicine. They think highly of themselves and certainly won't give up easily."

"The next battle will likely begin very soon!"

Hearing this, Xiong Zhuang was startled.

"If every Human Race brat is as formidable as Lu Dazhuang, won't we be completely finished?"

Chu Huai said in a deep voice, "What are you thinking, kid? I understand the Tianyuan Continent; it's impossible for so many Prodigies to appear all at once. Lu Dazhuang is already the frontrunner."

"But no matter what, we cannot be careless in the slightest. Gather all Yao Beasts above the seventh rank within Chu Feng Valley. When Lu Dazhuang brings people to attack, we'll catch them in a jar!"

"Understood!"

It took one whole night, but Lu Xingchen finally restored his state to its Peak, and immediately led his allies toward the Chu Feng Valley.

"Chu Huai, last time I fled miserably at your hands. Now it's my turn to settle the score!"

After everyone was ready, Lu Xingchen summoned Xiao You.

Everyone else was stunned. Lu Dazhuang also possessed a member of the Nether Dragon Clan as a mount, and this Nether Dragon had even reached the eighth rank.

This was simply terrifying.

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "There are countless Yao Beasts in the mountain range governed by the Chu Feng Valley. If we kill our way through step by step, we don't know how much time we'll waste."

"Let my partner unleash his Demonic Power to intimidate the Yao Beasts along the way, making them afraid to attack. As for us, we will head straight for Chu Huai's lair and use our numerical advantage to take him down!"

Lan Cang nodded slightly.

"Senior Brother Lu's consideration is very thorough. This is indeed a feasible method!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "You all stand on Xiao You's back. His flying speed is faster than an ordinary Martial Venerable, which will save us a lot of effort."

"Understood!" the crowd responded in unison.

Immediately, Xiao You spread his wings and flew toward the Chu Feng Valley.

Just as Lu Xingchen expected, along the way, the ordinary Yao Beasts guarding their territories dared not show their heads, retreating into their homes the moment they sensed Xiao You's aura.

The group proceeded unimpeded and arrived at the headquarters of the Chu Feng Valley.

This was the same mountain Peak he had fled from yesterday.

Lu Xingchen amplified his voice with fighting Qi and shouted toward the entire mountain Peak, "Chu Huai, come out and Face your death!"

In less than three minutes, Chu Huai appeared before Lu Xingchen, leading a large group of Yao Beasts.

There were over thirty Yao Beasts following him, all of them at the eighth-rank cultivation level.

Seeing this, Lu Xingchen frowned and said in a deep voice, "That's strange. Why aren't these Eighth-rank monsters guarding their own territories? Why are they all gathered around you? Could it be that you knew I was coming?"

Chu Huai nodded slightly and chuckled, "Was that hard to guess?"
