173: Lu Chen handled the challenges one after another with ease!

At this moment, the Japanese people supporting from the rear felt the complex of buildings at the Kyoto Imperial Palace shaking violently.

"The spiritual power of the Yata Mirror is backflowing!" The president of the Japanese Shinto Association ran frantically toward the secret room, "Quick, protect the mirror!"

In the distance, Lu Chen smiled.

"The spiritual power belongs to me now!"

Lu Chen thought that was it.

Who knew they were still unconvinced and planned to team up to attack him together.

They asked for Lu Chen's opinion.

Lu Chen nodded in agreement.

The girls looked at this group of people with even more contempt.

When the three major foreign academies simultaneously unleashed their national treasure Divine Artifacts, Lu Chen's skeletal body finally left the bone throne.

With every step he took, scenes of the annihilation of different civilizations appeared on the arena floor tiles.

Those were the civilizations that the Heavenly Dao had destroyed back then!

And within Lu Chen's body, he had grasped a portion of the Heavenly Dao's corrupted power.

After the crystallization was stopped by the girls, the power still remained!

The Mayan pyramids collapsed in the blood rain; Atlantis was swallowed by a tsunami; the Sanxingdui bronze sacred tree melted into molten iron in the karmic fire!

Ning Xiwei's bone scepter suddenly plunged into the ground, and undead obelisks carved with cuneiform script rose from sixteen Yellow Springs rifts.

Ignis's lava wings carried a storm of ancient Egyptian Scarab!

Shelley's frost Valkyrie held a Nordic giant ice sword!

In Morning Dew's Holy Light flowed the Japanese Yin and Yang techniques that she had absorbed in an instant!

As for Sun Feifei, the Taiji Yin and Yang fish appeared in her Bagua formation—orthodox Eastern immortal arts.

"Do you all know?" Lu Chen asked, his question shaking space and time, "What is the ultimate form of civilization? You are so weak, how can you challenge the Heavenly Dao? You are too weak, I have no interest in recruiting you. It really makes me feel annoyed!"

Lu Chen flicked his finger joints, and the Divine Artifacts of various civilizations suspended above the arena suddenly merged into a Chaos vortex.

They were all borrowing the power of the Divine Artifacts.

The main bodies of the Divine Artifacts were not here.

At this moment, when the Rosetta Stone in the British Museum, the Pyramid Texts in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and even the Yohen Tenmoku tea bowl in the Tokyo National Museum resonated simultaneously across the world, the live broadcast screen finally froze on a scene of an undead Nine Nether scroll that transformed from the golden compass slowly unfolding behind Lu Chen—!

Deep within that scroll, one could faintly see that above the thrones symbolizing different civilization systems, there was an imperial throne at the very top!

Lu Chen was right there!

At this moment, the clouds of the Kunlun Mountains were also affected, and strange patterns appeared in the sky.

Inside the teleportation array at this time, the last ones to jump out were twelve priests draped in emerald feather ornaments, descending while stepping on jaguar phantoms.

All of them were of Tier 8 strength.

Ning Xiwei's bone scepter sensed the aura of ancient undead, and the purple-gold skull embedded in the scepter actually began to automatically chant the lost chapters of the book of the dead.

Netizens in the live stream room frantically posted comments:

— The obsidian dagger in the Mayan priest's hand is cool.

— Lu Chen is the coolest!

— Huaxia is the coolest!

— You idiots, that's a projection of Kukulcan's sundial! It's used by the Mayans for the ritual to resurrect the Feathered Serpent God!

Ignis's lava wings unfolded with a boom, but the power of the Flame Demon suddenly changed color upon contacting the Mayan priest's emerald mask.

Lu Chen's finger bones traced sixteen Huaxia characters in the void, and Talismanic Incantations made of Netherworld Fire suddenly appeared above the arena.

The Mayan priests were also chanting incantations.

Runes also appeared.

When the rune of the 13th Baktun cycle lit up!

An emerald Feathered Serpent phantom actually swam out from Ignis's flames.

But the next moment, it was grabbed by its seven inches by Ignis with a backhand.

She pressed it onto the ground.

"Is that it?" the girl said disdainfully!

Blood sacrifice to the heavens opens the Yellow Springs, the long cycle of Reincarnation forges my soul.

The Feathered Serpent carries fire to burn the stars, daring to make the sun and moon change for a new era!

A fountain of blood surged from the altar at the Mayan priests' feet.

The undead giant elephant skeleton summoned by Ning Xiwei suddenly covered the Aztec Sun Stone patterns, colliding with the Feathered Serpent phantom in the air to create an annihilation black hole.

— At this moment, the Castillo pyramid located at the Chichen Itza ruins was vibrating in synchronization!

After several consecutive days of challenges, Lu Chen was finally numb to it.

But fortunately, there were indeed some good seeds.

Lu Chen gave the list to the Old Dean and the Grand Elder.

He was thinking about going out to rest for a few days.

Who knew, someone came to report: "Senior Lu, the Atlantis Academy has come to challenge..."

"Damn it—!"

... Before the people even arrived, Lu Chen had already smelled the salty, fishy scent of the Atlantic Ocean.

When the sea breeze suddenly swept across the arena, the Atlantis Academy's blue crystal chariot crushed the spatial barrier and emerged from above the teleportation array.

Before the twelve Athenians holding tridents could land, Morning Dew's cross had already generated magical power.

Lu Chen followed the old rule, directly summoning war drums to buff the girls.

What played was the forbidden movement of the "Cthulhu Mythos," and the fallen angel statue once again used chains to entangle the deep-sea kraken tentacles summoned by the Atlantis Academy people.

"Poseidon's Curse!"

"Attack together, activate the power of the ocean recorded by Plato!"

Several people from the academy began to act.

They worked hard together!

Shelley's ice crystal Valkyrie mutated at this moment, the eternal freeze core absorbing the Atlantis water elements, actually condensing a trident made of ten-thousand-year mysterious ice in the void.

When the Valkyrie threw the ice trident to pierce the Sea Emperor's chariot, the real Arctic ice sheet was forming the patterns of the Atlantis city-state.

Shelley's power came from the Arctic.

This was something everyone knew.

Especially that Secret Realm in the deep sea.

It had become Shelley's source of power.

Sun Feifei's Bagua formation hung upside down like a vortex, the bronze ancient sword guiding the calculation trajectory of the "Luo Shu," actually converting the Sea God's power into the Kan (Water) trigram of the Innate Bagua.

Lu Chen's finger bones pointed to the sky, and the lost "Cangming Guixu" hexagram from the "Guizang Yi" suddenly appeared above the arena.

— Coordinating with Sun Feifei.

"Heaven and Earth inverted!"

Sun Feifei pointed her sword at the opponent, "— All rivers return to the void!"

The Atlantis chariot disintegrated into billions of water droplets with a boom!

Every drop of water reflected the reflection of the Kunlun Mountains.

Won!

Actually, it was smooth, after all, Lu Chen was in charge.

The opponents really didn't have many solutions.

This is strength.

It is even more suppression.

"Who else is there? Let's all go together today!"

Lu Chen looked around and asked.

Then, a Siberian blizzard, bringing with it the roar of an ice field giant bear, killed its way out from the teleportation array!

The Winter Palace Academy of Russia's sleigh chariot hadn't even fully appeared yet!

Shelley took action first, her eternal freeze core erupting with unprecedented azure light.

Above her head, an ice crown phantom split into the form of a Tsar's crown, outlining a double-headed eagle emblem in the void.

Shelley softly shouted: "Borrowing force to strike, ice system conversion!"

"Absolute Zero Domain expansion!"

"Low-temperature singularity!"

A combo, the opponent hadn't even entered the stage yet!

They just ate a whole set of attacks first.

Morning Dew's Holy Light also formed into an ice crystal cross, and the black scriptures of the God-Slaying Ode flowed on the ice surface into the Hebrew secret language of the "Dead Sea Scrolls."
