478: One against five

The appearance of the three people and one dragon shocked both sides currently engaged in battle, causing them to hurriedly stop and retreat.

When Xu Hongmi saw Lu Xingchen, her expression immediately darkened.

Xiao You returned to the mount space, and the three of them, Lu Xingchen included, jumped onto the ground.

Looking around, Lu Xingchen chuckled. "Oh? It's quite lively here!"

The field was divided into two camps.

One side was Lu Yu and a young man, both of whom were Six-Star Martial Venerables.

The other side consisted of Xiao Chen, Wan Hanwen, Xu Hongmi, Feng Jie, and Dark Ink.

Xiao Chen was also one of the nine prodigies of the central continent, hailing from the Wuyang Kingdom, and his Realm was that of an Eight-Star Martial Venerable.

As for that kid Wan Hanwen, Lu Xingchen had seen his portrait on the popularity rankings before; his strength was not bad either, being a Seven-Star Martial Venerable.

There were also many supporters for both sides on the field.

That young man was just an unknown nobody without supporters, but Lu Yu had brought quite a few, numbering over two hundred Martial Artists.

This was thanks to the influence of the Book Sword Vengeance Sect.

However, on Xiao Chen's side, Xiao Chen, Xu Hongmi, Feng Jie, and Wan Hanwen all had followers, numbering over five hundred people in total.

Whether it was the combat power of the leaders or their subordinates, Lu Yu's side was at an absolute disadvantage.

At this moment, Lu Yu and the young man were already covered in blood.

Hearing Lu Xingchen's words, Xiao Chen stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "You are the Pill King, right? We can explore the Opportunity in this Skeleton Empire together, but please wait on the side for a moment and let me finish off Lu Yu and Li Qingshan."

"The two of them are descendants of the Four Great Mystic Sects, and we have the responsibility to kill them, following the last wishes of the Seniors from the Four Great Demonic Sects!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled and said indifferently, "Then I'm sorry, but my Dao Companion and I have also received the Legacy of the Four Great Mystic Sects. It seems I will have to help Lu Yu this time!"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen frowned.

"Since that's the case, then there is nothing left to say! Even if you are the Pill King, I will still have to take you down!"

"Hahaha! Xiao Chen, you are quite straightforward. Since that's the case, let's have a fight!"

"Nine Revolutions Profound Technique!"

"Word Spirit, Divine Descent Heavenly Spirit!"

"Sacred Dragon Transformation!"

The aura on Lu Xingchen's body continued to rise, and within three breaths, his Realm increased from a Five-Star Martial Venerable to a Nine-Star Martial Venerable.

Feeling the change in Lu Xingchen's aura, everyone was shocked.

Xiao Chen's tone was full of astonishment.

"A secret technique that can temporarily increase your Realm? You actually used three at the same time! How is this possible?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "As one of the nine prodigies of the central continent, it's normal to have a few trump cards, right? Let me tell you another piece of news: Luo Chen, the head of the nine prodigies, was taken down by me not long ago. He didn't die, though; he just lost his Life-saving Talisman."

Hearing this, everyone was even more astonished.

Xiao Chen said in a deep voice, "Possessing the strength of a Nine-Star Martial Venerable, it is indeed possible to contend with Luo Chen, but to say you took him down is perhaps an exaggeration. Your Majesty the Pill King, since you insist on interfering in this matter, don't blame us for bullying the few with the many!"

Lu Xingchen took out the shadow sword and chuckled, "Bring it on!"

Immediately, Xiao Chen and Wan Hanwen joined forces and attacked Lu Xingchen, while Xu Hongmi began to set up the "Golden Stamen Flowing Rosy Clouds Formation."

Feng Jie began to charge up the "Wind Storm Art," and Dark Ink escaped into the black mist, circling around Lu Xingchen's body to look for an Opportunity to strike.

These people were all frightened by Lu Xingchen's extremely high Realm, so they disregarded their dignity and teamed up to attack, five against one.

Yun Li said worriedly, "Big Strong One, all five of them are famous experts. Are you sure you can win?"

Lu Xingchen waved his hand and chuckled, "Don't worry! Not everyone is Luo Chen. Even if they all come at me together, I have nothing to fear!"

After speaking, Lu Xingchen unleashed the "chixiao sword Art," coated the blade with Fused Spirit Fire, and attacked Xiao Chen and Wan Hanwen.

At the same time, the great battle began again. Yun Li and Dongfang Yuqing joined the battlefield of ordinary Martial Artists, and Xiao You and Chu Huai were also summoned.

Feeling the scorching temperature on the shadow sword, Xiao Chen and the others were extremely shocked.

"How is this possible? Lu Dazhuang, you actually possess such a powerful Spirit Fire! This Spirit Fire is even a grade higher than Peng Yu's Bodhi Sacred Fire!"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "I told you earlier that I took down Luo Chen, but you didn't believe me. Do you believe me now?"

Xiao Chen snorted coldly.

"The Spirit Fire is indeed not bad, but it depends on who is using it!"

After speaking, he raised a large cyan blade and slashed down at Lu Xingchen. Lu Xingchen also held the shadow sword high and met it head-on.

The two collided, and Lu Xingchen directly sent Xiao Chen flying.

The Fused Spirit Fire was like a maggot on a bone, crazily invading Xiao Chen's body through the large cyan blade.

Xiao Chen's expression changed drastically; he hurriedly retreated three steps, trying his best to extinguish the Fused Spirit Fire that had invaded his body.

On the other side, Wan Hanwen's attack arrived, and Lu Xingchen directly used the "Mountain Splitting Seal" to attack him.

With Lu Xingchen's Nine-Star Martial Venerable Realm, using an Earth-Rank Martial Skill could achieve an instantaneous effect, and this earth rank high grade "Mountain Splitting Seal" was no exception.

Wan Hanwen was blasted away, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air before crashing heavily against the stone wall.

Xiao Chen said in a deep voice, "What terrifying strength! It seems you really have contended with Luo Chen!"

"Lu Dazhuang, dare you take a slash from me?"

Lu Xingchen smiled lightly at him and said indifferently, "Why wouldn't I dare!"

"Alright, Wind Demon Slash!"

Xiao Chen held the blade with both hands, raised it high, and a cyan Dou Qi blade condensed in the air.

This "Wind Demon Slash" was a Martial Skill he had obtained from the Wind Demon Sect, ranked as a heavenly tier high grade, and was his strongest trump card that he was proud of.

And the long cyan blade in his hand, named "Wind Demon Blade," was ranked as a heaven rank middle grade.

Lu Xingchen chuckled and activated the "Demon Breaking Slash." It only took him five seconds to finish charging.

But Xiao Chen's Dou Qi blade was still very blurry. Lu Xingchen yawned and said indifferently, "Xiao Chen, can you do it? Your casting speed is too slow!"

Hearing this, Xiao Chen was enraged by embarrassment. He bit the tip of his tongue, spat out a mouthful of blood essence, and merged it into the cyan blade. The cyan blade instantly turned emerald green.

Just at this moment, the black mist that Dark Ink had transformed into flew toward Lu Xingchen. What he held in his hand was no longer the "dagger of demonic darkness," but the "demon heart blade."

That's right, he had obtained the Legacy of the Heart Demon Sect, one of the Four Great Demonic Sects, and Xu Hongmi had come to back him up.

This "demon heart blade" was also ranked as a heaven rank middle grade, and it had a special effect: it could disturb a person's mind and make them fall into an illusion.

It didn't need to hit the target; it just needed to be close to the target. Dark Ink held the demon heart blade and slashed at Lu Xingchen.

Lu Xingchen smiled slightly and activated the "Mountain Splitting Seal" again. He held the shadow sword in his right hand, formed a seal with his left hand, and struck out toward Dark Ink.

That's right, he was already able to release a Martial Skill while fighting others, controlling two forces at the same time!
