Nine Realms Sword Emperor

Chapter 1985: Chapter 1988: Escape!

Chu Fengmian also noticed this point.

The three patriarchs of the Sea Sacrifice Sect guarding the Sacrificial Lake did not deliver fatal blows, but intended to suppress him.

After all, in their eyes, the three Heavenly Human Realm experts joining forces against Chu Fengmian alone,

No matter how great Chu Fengmian’s abilities were, escaping from their combined efforts seemed impossible.

Yet these three patriarchs of the Sea Sacrifice Sect never imagined that Lan Ming in their eyes was actually Chu Fengmian in disguise.

The three of them joined forces to seal off the space of the Sacrificial Lake, making it difficult for any Heavenly Human Realm expert to break through.

But for Chu Fengmian, who had fused with the Tai Chu aura of the Ancestor Sky Dragon, controlling the Space Origin, this space sealed layer upon layer seemed as fragile as paper.

If these three patriarchs had all used fatal moves, it would’ve been incredibly challenging for Chu Fengmian to resist.

But as they aimed to suppress him, the pressure on Chu Fengmian was significantly reduced.

Chu Fengmian had now stepped into the half-step Heavenly Human Realm. Facing one Heavenly Human Realm fighter alone, he was not inferior, and although he couldn’t fight three simultaneously, the lack of lethal intent meant the pressure wasn’t significant.

Suppressing a martial artist of the same realm is far more difficult than trying to kill them.

The three patriarchs attacked simultaneously, their spiritual power transforming into chains, aiming to entangle Chu Fengmian.

Chu Fengmian chuckled coldly, suddenly unleashing the power of the Profound Whale Bloodline, combined with the Ancestor Sky Dragon Bloodline, and punched out.

This punch, with the power of the Ancestor Sky Dragon and Profound Whale—two Innate Divine Beasts—was the "Dragon Whale Sea-Splitting Fist" Chu Fengmian had once created.

The Dragon Whale Sea-Splitting Fist was a technique created by Chu Fengmian to conceal his identity, not considered an extraordinary fist technique.

However, now possessing the Profound Whale Bloodline, Chu Fengmian’s Dragon Whale Sea-Splitting Fist combined the power of the Ancestor Sky Dragon and Profound Whale, elevating its power almost to Immortal Technique level.

With one punch, countless chains aiming to entangle Chu Fengmian shattered.

Free from the chains’ entanglement, Chu Fengmian’s figure swiftly flew towards the perimeter of the Sacrificial Lake.

"What kind of fist technique is this? Dragon Whale power? When did Lan Ming learn such a powerful fist technique?"

The three patriarchs of the Sea Sacrifice Sect were incredibly surprised as they stared at the Dragon Whale Sea-Splitting Fist displayed by Chu Fengmian.

"Seems like Lan Ming had hidden his strength all along. His previous entry into the Sea Sacrifice Sect might have been to infiltrate the Sacrificial Lake!"

"Lan Ming has hidden deeply."

"No need to waste words here. Capture him and interrogate him harshly; surely he’ll spill everything!"

In a flash of conversation, the three patriarchs of the Sea Sacrifice Sect simultaneously moved, chasing after Chu Fengmian.

Yet their tunneling light couldn’t catch up with Chu Fengmian; instead, the gap between them widened.

"What’s going on? Why is Lan Ming’s tunneling light so fast? I feel he hasn’t reached the Heavenly Human Realm, so how can his tunneling light be so quick?"

The guard, looking at Chu Fengmian’s increasingly distant tunneling light, exclaimed in surprise.

He was a Heavenly Human Realm expert but couldn’t catch up with Chu Fengmian’s tunneling light.

"No need to worry. We’ve already sealed off the Sacrificial Lake; even with great ability, Lan Ming can’t escape!"

Another patriarch of the Sea Sacrifice Sect said coldly.

Hearing this, the other two patriarchs of the Sea Sacrifice Sect relaxed, confident that with the Sacrificial Lake sealed, Chu Fengmian, regardless of his speed, couldn’t escape.

But their assumptions were entirely off the mark.

Chu Fengmian’s tunneling light reached the edges of the Sacrificial Lake, about to leave when it was blocked by a force.

The three patriarchs of the Sea Sacrifice Sect had just jointly layered seals, sealing the Sacrificial Lake’s space, making it impossible for anyone to leave.

Yet Chu Fengmian merely glanced at the blocking force and swiftly made his move.

"Break!"

The word "break" echoed from Chu Fengmian’s mouth, and suddenly, the layers of space seal surrounding him trembled, shattering considerably before him.

With a wave of his hand, Chu Fengmian punched forward.

Boom!

The heavily sealed space was instantly punched open, providing a gap through which Chu Fengmian, without hesitation, flew towards the outside of the Divine Temple.

The sealing layers arranged by these three patriarchs of the Sea Sacrifice Sect, were all broken by Chu Fengmian’s casual wave.

This surpassed everyone’s imagination.

Seeing this, the three patriarchs who chased Chu Fengmian widened their eyes in disbelief.

"Impossible!"

"How could Lan Ming break our seal?"

"No, with such power, this person definitely isn’t Lan Ming; it’s someone disguised to infiltrate the Sacrificial Lake!"

At that moment, the three patriarchs realized suddenly.

Such power was beyond Lan Ming’s capabilities; even if Lan Ming truly reached the Heavenly Human Realm, he couldn’t pull off tearing apart the space sealed by three Heavenly Human Realm experts.

Let alone the ease with which Chu Fengmian ripped space apart.

"Damn it! Someone infiltrated the Sacrificial Lake!"

"Notify Lord Sea Sacrifice Emperor immediately!"

Realizing "Lan Ming" was a fake left the three patriarchs furious and shamed, knowing someone had disguised as Lan Ming to infiltrate under their noses, disregarding them completely.

If word got out, they’d be the laughingstock of the Sea Sacrifice Sect.

Particularly, if Chu Fengmian escapes, it would be a millennium embarrassment.

"Chase him! He can’t escape far; even if he leaves the Divine Temple, he won’t escape the Sea Sacrifice Sect!"

After passing the message, the three patriarchs tirelessly continued their pursuit of Chu Fengmian.

The heavy restrictions inside the Divine Temple had already been weakened by Chu Fengmian using the Swallowing Heaven Secret Technique, losing ninety percent of their force, making them extremely fragile.

Chu Fengmian left the Sacrificial Lake, and his tunneling light immediately headed outward. Along the way, activating the Swallowing Heaven Secret Technique, all the forbidden array formations were instantly broken.
