Chapter 29: How Dare You!
No one could have anticipated that the isolating formation covering five hundred li was actually derived from a portable formation disc!
Such an astounding fact was hard to believe even if directly told to others. Unless witnessed firsthand, who would believe that a formation capable of isolating an area of five hundred li could be stored in a portable formation disc without any prior preparation?
Even Leng Yanran herself was startled by the terrifying effect of the formation after she activated it. However, considering her master's extraordinary existence as an immortal-like figure, she accepted the reality without further doubt.
Ignoring Luo Wu's words, Leng Yanran was pondering how to bombard the enemy to end the battle as quickly as possible. However, Luo Wu below frowned when he saw her behavior.
"Hmph, turns out you're just a coward who dares not show your face.
"Don't think I don't know; you saved Leng Yanran because you've taken an interest in her special physique, wanting to nurture her into an excellent alchemy cauldron,"
Luo Wuzhen spoke again, intentionally amplifying his voice with spiritual power so that nearby onlookers could hear every word clearly.
Since the other party was causing trouble for the Luo Heaven Sect, there was no need for him to hold back. He wanted to expose the mysterious person's true intentions and reveal his purpose.
If Leng Yanran could hear this news, she might not allow herself to be controlled by this enigmatic figure after learning the truth!
"What the heck!"
"What a revelation! Leng Yanran possesses a special physique that's perfect for being used as an alchemy cauldron?"
"No wonder this mysterious person is willing to go against the Luo Heaven Sect just to save Leng Yanran and the Liang family!"
"It seems this isn't a good person!"
The onlooking cultivators had a sudden realization upon hearing this explosive news. Initially, they thought the mysterious person might have been attracted by Leng Yanran's beauty, leading to the conflict with the Luo Heaven Sect, but now they understood it better.
There were certain unique physiques in the world that, when used as alchemy cauldrons for dual cultivation, brought immense benefits to cultivators, even those at the Void-Realm or higher.
When it came to cultivation, there were no limits to what some people might do. However, opposing the Luo Heaven Sect was truly an irrational move on the mysterious person's part.
As Luo Wu's words fell, the enigmatic figure in the black robe trembled uncontrollably with anger.
"Heh, have I exposed your true identity, making you angry?"
"Do you know that the protective formation of my Luo Heaven Sect is something even a Ninth Heaven of the Annihilation Realm would struggle to break?"
"You dare to entertain the thought of destroying my Luo Heaven Sect? How laughable!"
"Elders, activate the protective formation! I'll personally deal with this coward who dares not show his face!"
Luo Wu, full of confidence, issued orders to the many elders. Then, he flew out of the sect's protective formation alone. He was very self-assured about his strength.
Throughout these years, there was no one in the Northern Region who could make him feel afraid. The mysterious person in front of him was no exception.
Moreover, based on the information from the Second Elder, this person was only at the Third Layer of the Annihilation Realm, which was not even a match for Luo Wu's strength.
Even if he had the strength of the Eighth or Ninth Layer of the Annihilation Realm, he could retreat into the protective formation and be invincible!
"How dare you slander my master!"
"You, scum."
Leng Yanran clenched her fists, and for the first time, a profound sense of murderous intent emanated from her stunning eyes! As she spoke, she removed her hat, her face cold as she stared at Luo Wu, the true disciple who flew out from the Luo Tian Sect.
Discovering that she possessed the rare and unique constitution of a Cauldron, Leng Yanran felt somewhat surprised. However, the reason that enraged her was not this revelation.
The one and only cause of her seething anger, enough to make her grit her teeth and tremble uncontrollably, was the despicable Luo Wu, who dared to defile her master's name! He deserved nothing less than utter annihilation!
"Huh!?"
"Leng Yanran?"
"Why is this mysterious person Leng Yanran? Wasn't it supposed to be a powerful figure behind her?"
Yet, as Leng Yanran removed her concealing hat, everyone present was left dumbfounded. The enigmatic figure they had all been nervously fearing turned out not to be the legendary expert from the Realm of Annihilation, but Leng Yanran?
Even if she were strong, she was merely at the Transcendent Realm. How could she dare to come alone to the Luo Heaven Sect?
"Tsk, so he sent you to play tricks and divert our attention?"
"Where's the mysterious person behind you? Where is he hiding, and what tricks does he has up their sleeve?"
"Forget it, I doubt you'll tell us anything useful. But I refuse to believe that the mysterious person will just watch you perish without lifting a finger!"
Luo Wu hadn't expected the person under the black robe to be Leng Yanran. He was momentarily taken aback.
However, he soon sneered; regardless of the situation, the mysterious figure would undoubtedly not stand idly by as Leng Yanran courted death. Otherwise, it would be a futile endeavor.
Although Leng Yanran was surrounded by what seemed to be a defensive formation, Luo Wu paid it no mind. Such portable formations, whether inscribed in treasures or embedded in disks, were likely just Yellow-Grade formations meant to conceal their true strength and bewilder the onlookers!
As a mighty expert of the Annihilation Realm, he could easily break through it with a single strike!
"Die! If you happen to come across Zhang Tianze, that waste, on the road to the underworld, tell him that I must have been blind to have nurtured him as the chief disciple!"
"Luo Tian Grand Palm!"
With a sneering expression, Master Luo Wu unleashed their sect's Earth-rank high-grade divine ability. At the same time, he remained vigilant for any sudden appearance of the mysterious powerhouse, fearing an ambush.
In his hands, this technique was far superior to the one used by Elder Mo, who was at the Return to Ruin Realm, back then!
A palm imprint that darkened the sky emerged, exuding terrifying pressure that made countless cultivators within a hundred li tremble with scalp-numbing fear, tempting them to flee. Even a mountain peak would likely shatter under this palm!
"So formidable!"
"Is this the power of an Annihilation Realm expert?"
"Even at a distance of a hundred li, I can feel the horrifying pressure in that palm imprint!"
"Alas, this is the end for Leng Yuran. Even if the mysterious expert intervenes now, there won't be time to save her!"
"Such a pity to lose such a tempting beauty..."
The onlooking cultivators couldn't help but sigh. Many among them had been charmed by Leng Yuran's beauty, and they couldn't bear to witness such a rare beauty meet such a tragic fate. They turned away, feeling heartbroken.
