Chapter 1703: Chapter 1700: Storming Xingyun Hall!
Upon seeing this situation, Li Chen immediately understood that this guy was planning to self-destruct.
With that thought in mind, Li Chen did not hesitate, quickly clasping his hands together to form seals, conjuring a mass of light that enveloped the Great Elder.
The Great Elder, unable to dodge, was instantly enveloped within.
At this moment, he was like a fish trapped in a net.
No matter what he tried, he could not break free.
Li Chen reached into the void and summoned the Chi Dragon Divine Spear.
The long spear thrust forward, tearing through countless layers of space, shooting towards the Life Gate at the heart of the Great Elder.
"Pfft!"
The Great Elder’s body was instantly pierced, blood gushing like a fountain, a gruesome sight.
His Divine Soul attempted to escape, but was swallowed by a vortex that Li Chen had conjured in his palm.
Turned to dust, utterly annihilated!
At this moment, Snow Princess arrived.
Seeing only Li Chen, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, she asked, "Where is the Great Elder?"
Li Chen, expressionless, said indifferently: "Dead!"
Hearing Li Chen’s words, Snow Princess was taken aback.
"Did you really kill all three elders of Xingyun Hall?"
Li Chen shrugged, nonchalantly asking, "Do you think I’m joking with you?"
Snow Princess immediately shook her head like a rattle, saying, "No, I didn’t mean it that way!"
After a moment of silence, she asked again, "So, what do you plan to do next, really attack Xingyun Hall? Zhai Xingzi reached the Late Mahayana Stage ten thousand years ago. Now, he’s probably in the Great Perfection Realm, just one step away from truly becoming an immortal, his power unfathomable!"
As she spoke, her bright eyes filled with worry.
Li Chen knew Snow Princess was concerned he might not defeat Zhai Xingzi and be killed by him instead.
He merely smiled calmly, responding nonchalantly, "Even if he’s not yet immortal, and even if he truly becomes immortal, I am confident in my ability to kill him!"
Despite the low volume, Li Chen’s tone exuded undeniable confidence.
Snow Princess wanted to say more, but as she opened her mouth, not a word came out.
Li Chen brushed off his sleeve, saying, "There’s no time to lose, I’ll head to Xingyun Hall now. If you’re worried I can’t defeat Zhai Xingzi and will suffer his wrath later, you best return to avoid trouble!"
Hearing these words from Li Chen, a tinge of anger immediately appeared on Snow Princess’s pretty face.
She snorted coldly, disdainfully saying, "Hmph, though Xingyun Hall is a Wuyu overlord, our Qianxue Hall is not a pushover either!"
Upon hearing Snow Princess’s words, Li Chen said coldly, "Since you’re not afraid, then do as you like!"
Having said this, he no longer paid attention to Snow Princess, his entire body turning into a streak of light, heading straight for Xingyun Hall.
"Halt, this is Xingyun Hall’s territory, no outsiders permitted!"
As soon as Li Chen arrived at the entrance of Xingyun Hall, he was stopped by the gatekeeping disciples.
Though stopped, Li Chen was not angered.
In an emotionless tone, he said lightly, "Inform your Hall Master that Li Chen has come to pay respects!"
Upon hearing Li Chen announce himself, the expressions of these gatekeeping disciples all changed.
Immediately, as if facing a formidable enemy, they all summoned their weapons and Magical Treasures, surrounding Li Chen completely.
Soon after, a leading disciple sternly rebuked, "Li Chen, truly there is a path to heaven you don’t take, and no door in hell, yet you rush in! Never did I imagine you would actually dare come on your own initiative!"
"Men, seize him for me!"
At the command of this disciple, dozens of other disciples charged in.
Seeing this, a cold killing intent emerged in Li Chen’s star-bright pupils.
"Is living so hard? Why must you seek your own death?"
After speaking, he flicked his sleeve, thousands of Sword Intents burst forth like exploding fireworks, shooting out in all directions.
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
...
In the blink of an eye, the disciples of Xingyun Hall all spewed blood, their souls scattered.
Soon, only the leading disciple remained alive.
Looking at Li Chen, his eyes were filled with terror, as if he had seen a ghost.
Li Chen gave a chilling smile, coldly asking, "Now, will you go report my arrival?"
After a deathly silence, the disciple, having been scared out of his wits, suddenly screamed.
"Not good, Li Chen has broken in, Li Chen has broken in..."
Seeing this, the cultivators of Xingyun City were all taken aback.
"Who is this person, daring to invade Xingyun Hall, does he have a death wish?"
"Seems his name is Li Chen, it’s said the Young Master Mo of the Heavenly Demon Sect was killed by him!"
"Heh, in my opinion, this Li Chen is truly unaware of the immensity of heaven and earth. With a bit of talent, he already considers himself invincible, truly foolish and laughable!"
"Old brother is right, the tree that stands taller in the forest will be felled by the wind. In my view, Li Chen is sure to meet his end today!"
"Ah, such a pity for his talent. If he doesn’t fall today, with his rate of progress, he might one day break the Life and Death Shackles and become immortal!"
...
Instantly, the onlookers nearby were abuzz with discussion.
Most were mocking Li Chen’s arrogance and overestimation of himself, with some lamenting his impending demise.
At this moment, a stern shout echoed from within Xingyun Hall.
"Who dares to trespass in my Xingyun Hall so boldly!"
Before the words had even settled, a youth clad in a white starry robe appeared, flying through the air.
Someone recognized the newcomer and immediately exclaimed.
"This is Bai Wuxing, Xingyun Hall’s Chief Heavenly Pride, also the Direct Disciple of Wuyu’s foremost Zhai Xingzi. It’s said his talent is no less than his master’s!"
"A clash of celebrated heroes, it seems there’s a good show to watch now!"
Li Chen took a glance at Bai Wuxing, noting that his cultivation was merely at the Middle Mahayana, with combat capacity not even matching the Great Elder, sparking no interest at all.
"You’re not my opponent, better have your master Zhai Xingzi come out!"
Bai Wuxing, who had always been a pampered Heaven’s Chosen Son, had never suffered such humiliation. In his youthful vigor, he immediately flew into a rage.
"Li Chen, stop your arrogant words. Today, I will definitely cut you down!"
Before his words even finished, he suddenly summoned a cyan long sword, slashing through the void with indomitable force towards Li Chen.
Li Chen’s eyes were full of disdain, coldly saying, "Hmph, a paltry trick, how dare you show off before me?"
