Nine Realms Sword Emperor

Chapter 1957: Chapter 1960: Ant? True Dragon!

However, since Chu Fengmian decided to disguise, he naturally had to disguise thoroughly. Soon, Chu Fengmian had no choice but to devour Elixir Pills to compensate for the Spiritual Power consumption.

After an hour, the consumption of Chu Fengmian’s Spiritual Power had reached the point where even devouring Elixir Pills could not make up for it; he could no longer resist the attacks of the Wind Blades.

"Lord Wu Jue, I can no longer hold on."

Chu Fengmian struggled to fend off a few Wind Blades and said weakly.

"According to the distance, we’re almost there."

Wu Jue glanced ahead, then looked at Chu Fengmian and spoke calmly.

"Not bad, you’re still obedient. In that case, just stay close behind me."

"Yes."

Chu Fengmian felt as though he had been granted amnesty, and followed closely behind Wu Jue, slowly recovering his Spiritual Power.

"This person is obedient, so let’s not kill him now; we’ll act once we reach that ancient dwelling."

Wu Jue glanced at Chu Fengmian, a trace of murderous intent flickering in his eyes.

Although it was just a fleeting moment, it was still detected by Chu Fengmian.

Chu Fengmian knew that Wu Jue had brought him to the storm’s center to accomplish something secretive, and once it was done, Wu Jue would definitely not let him go.

However, Wu Jue assumed that Chu Fengmian was already under Lan Ming’s Forbidden Array Formation control, which was why he felt so assured bringing Chu Fengmian along.

But in reality, Chu Fengmian was not under Lan Ming’s Forbidden Array control. Chu Fengmian was now playing along to see what Wu Jue was up to in the storm’s center.

Feigning exhaustion, Chu Fengmian followed behind Wu Jue, flying towards the storm’s center.

The two had already passed through the storm, and Chu Fengmian sensed that the Wind Blades around them had significantly reduced.

The scene within the storm ahead gradually became clear.

Chu Fengmian’s gaze swept across, and the scene ahead was reflected in his eyes.

Palaces, one after another.

In the storm’s center, there were actually many palaces, many of which were damaged, appearing to be shattered by the Wind Blades.

But there were still some intact palaces standing there, with many palaces having well-preserved Forbidden Array Formations on them.

Looking from afar, the storm’s center seemed like the remnants of a Sect.

"Follow me."

Without giving Chu Fengmian a chance to carefully observe, Wu Jue snorted coldly. Chu Fengmian hurriedly followed, closely trailing Wu Jue, landing in front of a palace.

Chu Fengmian glanced, noticing that many of the Forbidden Array Formations in the palace had already been activated, and they had been activated very recently.

It seemed this palace was Wu Jue’s destination.

"Go inside first and check out the situation."

Wu Jue looked at Chu Fengmian, pointing at the palace.

"Won’t there be any danger?"

Chu Fengmian said apprehensively.

"Just go when I tell you to. Why all the talk? If there’s danger, I’ll naturally save you."

Wu Jue snorted coldly.

"What, you want to taste what it’s like when a Forbidden Array is triggered?"

Hearing this, Chu Fengmian shivered, seemingly fearing the activation of the Forbidden Array, hurriedly walking into the palace.

Seeing Chu Fengmian enter the palace, Wu Jue’s lips curled into a cold smile.

"Boom!"

Just as Chu Fengmian stepped into the palace, the world suddenly spun, and countless flames ignited, crazily pouncing towards Chu Fengmian.

"Wu Jue, you don’t keep your promises!"

Seeing the flames, Chu Fengmian shouted loudly.

"Promises? What promises? Foolish as a pig, did you think I brought you here and you’d leave alive? This entire dwelling is my fortune; do you think I’d let you live to know of it?"

Wu Jue’s icy voice echoed from all around.

"To open this dwelling, a sacrifice is needed. I didn’t know where to find one, and you delivered yourself right here. Perfect, today you’ll become the sacrifice to open this dwelling!"

Wu Jue spoke as he recited ancient words.

Although Chu Fengmian couldn’t understand, he knew it was an ancient sacrificial language.

The Sea Sacrifice Sect is renowned for sacrificial practices, with living blood sacrifices being one of the most powerful forms among countless rituals. The stronger the Martial Artist or Demon God, the greater the power when sacrificed.

Wu Jue had tricked Chu Fengmian into the palace, intending to sacrifice him, using Chu Fengmian’s power to break the palace’s Forbidden Array Formation.

Around Chu Fengmian, the flames turned into golden sacrificial fire, seemingly ready to consume him entirely.

But at that moment, suddenly, a Dragon Roar erupted, Spiritual Power reverberated, and the surrounding sacrificial fire was extinguished instantly.

A figure suddenly flew from the palace and grabbed the still attempting-sacrifice Wu Jue.

This figure was precisely Chu Fengmian.

"You? What’s happening? How could you escape from my blood sacrifice technique?"

Seeing Chu Fengmian suddenly breaking through and escaping the sacrificial fire, Wu Jue was shocked.

He had purposely drained Chu Fengmian’s Spiritual Power, making him fend off the Wind Blades to directly sacrifice Chu Fengmian.

But unexpectedly, in an instant, Chu Fengmian completely shattered his blood sacrifice.

Now the aura of power emanating from Chu Fengmian was entirely different from before. In the Sea Sacrifice Sect, Chu Fengmian’s displayed power wasn’t even one percent of his true strength.

With the true power now unleashed, Wu Jue suddenly realized that Chu Fengmian was not a puppet but a true dragon.

"You thought I was really someone to be slaughtered at will? I was merely acting. I originally came to the Sea Sacrifice Sect just to deal with Lan Ming, not wanting to kill others. Unfortunately, you chose your own demise!"

Chu Fengmian laughed loudly, eyes casting a few murderous glances.

Chu Fengmian’s target was only Lan Ming. He had no desire to kill other Sea Sacrifice Sect Disciples, but it was a pity Wu Jue had been targeting Chu Fengmian ever since he entered the Sea Sacrifice Sect.

Now, intending to sacrifice Chu Fengmian, Wu Jue couldn’t blame Chu Fengmian for retaliating.

"You, you’re a traitor, daring to even want to kill Lord Lan Ming?"

Listening to Chu Fengmian’s audacious words, Wu Jue shouted loudly.

"Don’t forget, you bear Lord Lan Ming’s Forbidden Array. If you dare resist, with just a trigger, you’d die instantly! Do you really think you can stand against Lord Lan Ming’s Forbidden Array?"
