Looking at the news on the big screen, Li Daoyi raised his eyebrows: "He is actually preparing to retreat to break through the seventh level. Has he reached this point?"
No matter which path of cultivation you choose, reaching the peak of the sixth level does not mean you can break through to the seventh level.
It was a barrier that blocked many practitioners.
The unity of essence, energy and spirit sounds simple, but many advanced practitioners are stuck here for years without making any progress, and the true energy flame cannot be integrated with the rune shadow.
Chen Chu said calmly: "He is somewhat similar to the invincible path I took in the beginning. He fought through two countries and swept away all civilian practitioners below the middle stage of the seventh heaven."
"In this case, his spiritual will will be sublimated to a certain extent, and his aura will be gathered. He may have touched the realm of unity of essence, energy and spirit."
The road to invincibility is actually a tempering of spiritual will.
When a practitioner keeps fighting and defeats practitioners of the same level again and again, his will becomes stronger and stronger, and he develops the belief that he is invincible, and his thoughts become active and clear.
In this state, many doubts about cultivation that once arose could be cleared up with just a little thought, and many minor obstacles in cultivation could be overcome with just a single breakthrough.
It’s just that the normal invincible road usually takes a long time, and the opponents chosen are also selective.
For example, one will not choose an opponent who is stronger than oneself. Otherwise, once the road to invincibility is interrupted, one's morale will fall, and it will be impossible to enter an invincible state again.
It is almost impossible to replicate the situation like Chen Chu's, who traveled two thousand kilometers in half a day, killed his way through a battlefield, and defeated five or six hundred practitioners of the same level in one day.
In particular, all opponents were defeated with one move, demonstrating terrifying endurance and persistence.
Li Daoyi's expression became a little more serious: "This person is already very strong. If he breaks through the seventh level, it may be a bit troublesome."
"When the time comes, you will be lured away and entangled by Clyde, and Akunus will attack me again, and there will be a defensive vacuum around Sister Ruoyi."
“Isn’t this just perfect?”
Yan Ruoyi on the other side whispered, "With Akunus's knowledge and several attempts, he should have guessed that Brother Chu's way of sensing danger comes from his eyes, or even his intuition."
"This is the significance of Clyde's appearance. It wants to use the momentum of public opinion to force Chu Di away from me, even if it's only for a short time."
"So when Brother Chu and Clyde have their final battle, there is a high probability that Akunus, who has been hiding, will take action, including preparing means to contain you, Brother Li."
Li Daoyi sat up straight, frowning slightly: "In this case, should we make some preparations in advance? For example, let the Eighth Heaven strongman over there ambush in advance?"
Yan Ruoyi shook her head: "No, the king's soul has a sense of heart and blood, and it will sense when there is a strong threat nearby."
"This is also the reason why after reaching the king level, not only is one's strength terrifying, but also difficult to kill, unless one is surrounded and killed at lightning speed."
"Don't worry, just focus on the battle and don't worry about me."
"Aunt Bai has a trump card in her hand that can protect me. It is something my father prepared specifically for Akunus."
Hearing this, Chen Chu's eyes moved slightly and he looked at Li Daoyi.
In fact, they had guessed this a long time ago. After all, she was the only daughter of King Xuanwu. How could she not have a powerful one-time secret treasure in her hands?
However, this kind of secret treasure should have usage requirements, so it was placed in Bai Yunfeng's hands.
After breakfast, the group went downstairs.
There are still five days before the concert, and Yan Ruoyi has more things to do.
The concert organizer, Bai Yunfeng, was even busier. She personally participated in the design of the stage layout, sound equipment, lighting, and everything else, and she also strived for perfection in the costumes.
Because this will be Yan Ruoyi's final farewell party, she wants everyone in the "whole world" to remember this girl and remember that she had been there.
Although after Chen Chu gave her the life essence, Yan Ruoyi felt that her success rate reached 30%.
But is there a difference between 30% and 20%?
As soon as everyone walked out of the hotel lobby, a group of reporters surrounded them excitedly and shouted after being stopped from a distance by bodyguards such as Li Long.
"Mr. Chu Batian, will you accept Clyde's challenge?"
"Mr. Chu, if Clyde breaks through the seventh level, are you still confident that you can defeat him?"
"Ms. Ruoyi, you have been attacked by the evil cult before. Now the concert is about to begin. Is Clyde planning to challenge you at this time?"
This group of reporters' target is not only Chen Chu, they also want to get some news from Yan Ruoyi.
Looking at the excited reporters, Chen Chu and Yan Ruoyi exchanged a glance, then said calmly: "Since everyone is so concerned, I will simply answer a few questions."
"As a 'professional' bodyguard, my first duty is to protect Miss Yan's safety."
"If the time of Clyde's challenge affects Miss Yan's safety, I will decisively refuse. After all, it is impossible for him to challenge whenever he wants."
"So please tell everyone that it's okay to challenge, but it's best to choose the right time, such as the day before or after Miss Yan's concert."
"Otherwise, go back to where you came from."
Suddenly the reporters were in an uproar, and they excitedly recorded Chen Chu.
Too arrogant, worthy of being a god-killer.
At this time, Yan Ruoyi smiled and said, "Okay, I have answered your questions. Now everyone can go home. We still have to go to the concert to rehearse."
…
[The bodyguard is as arrogant as ever]
[A man who has killed a god is so domineering and confident! ]
[Chu Batian: What is Clyde? ]
When Chen Chu followed Yan Ruoyi to the gymnasium, several headlines quickly became hot searches and sparked heated discussions online in other countries.
There are many "experts" who come out to comment.
But these had no effect on Chen Chu.
In the stadium that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, Yan Ruoyi and more than a dozen beautiful and handsome male and female dancers were gesticulating on the stage, and many staff members in the entire venue were busy.
Standing on the stage, Chen Chu, wearing sunglasses, looked around with sharp eyes and a stern expression.
After this concert, Yan Ruoyi will return to Dongxia to "sleep", so these few days are Akunus' last chance and he may take action at any time.
Although they speculated that the probability of it launching an attack was greatest when Clyde challenged and distracted Chen Chu.
But we can't be careless at ordinary times. What if the other party is secretly using Clyde's challenge to create the illusion that it will not take action for the time being?
According to Yan Ruoyi, there are only two ways for Akunus to get the 'dragon' back. One is to control her and absorb the 'dragon' away with the same soul power.
The other is her death. At the moment before the 'dragon' lost its possession and disintegrated, she burst out the same soul power at close range to attract and take the dragon back.
Both methods have distance restrictions, so Chen Chu only needs to ensure that there are no problems with the people around Yan Ruoyi.
In other words, when Yan Ruoyi is attacked, it is enough as long as there are no outsiders around her.
At that time, except for Li Daoyi and Bai Yunfeng, who can be absolutely trusted, anyone who dares to step into the ten-meter range will die, regardless of gender.
I would rather kill the wrong person than let anyone go.
Without a dragon, Akunus is just an ordinary king, but once it obtains a dragon to complete itself, its strength will be comparable to that of a king-level being, and it will be very difficult to deal with.
In addition, he also comes from the human race and has a better understanding of all aspects of the Federation. The threat he poses is greater than that of the Great Demon King of the Purgatory Demon Clan.
At this moment, a group of two people and a fox walked in from the gymnasium entrance. After seeing Yan Ruoyi from a distance, they shouted excitedly: "Sister Ruoyi."
"Ming Yue?"
Looking at the fierce girl who was happily running towards her, Yan Ruoyi showed surprise in her eyes, and then her whole body was hugged tightly by the girl, and her whole body was squeezed and deformed.
"Hehe! Sister Ruoyi, I missed you so much." The fox-eared girl hugged Yan Ruoyi and rubbed against her, looking very happy.
Yan Ruoyi, who was being held, was a little confused: "Mingyue, why did you come to Gunado? Didn't you go back with your brother?"
Qingqiu Mingyue said with a smile: "I was originally going back with my brother, but my uncle said that Sister Ruoyi is not stable enough here, so he asked me to bring Xuexue over to help."
Qingqiu Mingyue looked at Chen Chu beside her and said excitedly, "Senior Chu, you are so amazing. You actually killed a Demon King clone."
Chen Chu said calmly: "The main reason is that the other party's realm is too low, only the middle stage of the sixth heaven, and can't exert his true strength."
Although he defeated Chaotorus' clone head-on at that time, Chen Chu did not underestimate the opponent and thought that the strength of the king was just like that.
As the level of Thunder Flame Emperor Dragon increased, Chen Chu could increasingly perceive the gap between each major realm in the later period, which was a huge chasm.
This can be seen from the differences between level eight and level nine behemoths, not to mention the myths above them.
As a king and demon king who is equal to the mythical beasts, his true strength is naturally terrifying.
It's just that the soul clone that smuggled in did not contain the origin of the law, and the body it possessed was only at the sixth level, so it was not very strong.
While this one was not very strong, he also burst out the combat power of the peak of the seventh level with a body in the middle stage of the sixth level, which was far stronger than what Ling Yi said at the beginning.
Of course, Ling Yi did not expect that Chen Chu would confront Chaotorus head-on.
All they thought was that after the Demon King or Akunus showed up, Li Daoyi would take action to restrain one of them, Chen Chu would take Yan Ruoyi and escape, and then other strong men would be waiting to take over.
The trouble for the Federation is that they are hiding.
As long as they reveal their spiritual power, there are plenty of ways to track and lock them.
"Senior Chu, you are still so humble. After you sparred with my brother, he said that you were holding back and didn't show your full strength."
Chen Chu said calmly: "Brother Qingqiu, you are too kind. At that time, I had already burst out all my strength and even entered the first stage of rune transformation."
The girl was not so easily fooled. She blinked her big eyes and said, "If there is the first paragraph, then there must be the second and third paragraphs."
"You thought you were watching an anime. There's also Super Transformation 1 and Super Transformation 2." Chen Chu shook his head, although he did have a second transformation.
"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to everyone."
As he spoke, Qingqiu Mingyue turned around and hugged the neck of the white fox behind him. The fox was more than one meter tall at the shoulders, three meters long, and had six tails more than two meters long.
"This is Xuexue, a good friend who grew up with me."
"Come, Xuexue, say hello. This is my favorite sister Ruoyi, and this is Senior Chu who I can't beat even at the Sixth Heaven level."
Looking at Chen Chu and the other person, the white fox showed a human-like indifference on its face, and a low humming sound came out from its nose, which contained spiritual thoughts: Yingying! ! You, hello, I am, Tianxue.
Yan Ruoyi's eyes suddenly showed surprise: "Thoughts become sounds, a mutant fox beast with high intelligence, Mingyue, can I touch it?"
"Hehe, sure, Sister Ruoyi."
When Yan Ruoyi came over with great interest and hugged the white fox and rubbed it together with Qingqiu Mingyue, a hint of surprise appeared in Chen Chu's eyes.
Because this fox beast is very strong.
In his perception, the fox beast that was restraining its aura should be at the peak of level six, but there was a hidden and terrifying power in its body.
The force was so strong that Chen Chu felt that it would take two halberds to detonate it.
This fox beast should have king-level bloodline and is likely to be a descendant of the mythical giant eight-tailed celestial fox, and its bloodline has a strong degree of evolution and regression.
You are strong, but why do you make a whining sound? You are not a mutant killer whale.
When Chen Chu was looking at it, the six-tailed white fox's pair of eyes that revealed a hint of charm also glanced at him vaguely, and a hint of fear and suspicion flashed in its eyes.
Because it felt a faint blood suppression from this human.
But how is that possible, isn't he human?
While the few people were talking, the beautiful dancers around the stage and some staff in the distance were looking at the six-tailed fox beast curiously.
For these ordinary people, there are not many opportunities to come into close contact with powerful mutant creatures.
"What a beautiful fox."
"Your fox is bigger than a buffalo. It's a strange beast, very ferocious, and can eat a person in one bite."
At the edge of the stage in the distance, the assistant who was helping the sound engineer adjust the equipment also had shining eyes: "That fox is so beautiful, I really want to touch it."
The bald middle-aged team tuner said, "Don't even think about it, Xiaowei. It's a pure high-level mutant beast. If you touch it without its approval, it might bite you."
hiss!
Thinking of the scene of herself being bitten by that big mouth, the pretty little assistant took a deep breath, and the staff beside her couldn't help but laugh at her cute appearance.
…
Still deep underground in that small island.
At this time, the blood and the corpses of strange beasts in the blood pool in the center of the cave had disappeared, revealing a dark hole of unknown depth.
Carved all over the surrounding mountain walls and the ground, sacrificial runes that looked like ferocious evil spirits were flashing a faint red light and emitting a strong evil aura.
As for those Blood God followers, they turned into ashes after sacrificing their flesh, blood and souls.
At this time, at the edge of the black hole, a long-haired young man with red ripples between his eyebrows looked forward with deep eyes, as if he was looking at another distant place.
Not far behind the young man, a diamond-shaped black crystal was suspended, slowly rotating, and continuously emitting rune-like black spots of light, which gathered more and more.
Soon the black spots of light spread out, forming a large rune formation covering a one-meter diameter in the air.
Buzz! With the black crystal as the center, the rune array vibrated, and in an instant it was like a black hole collapsing, forming a dark area with a diameter of several meters around it.
The diamond-shaped crystal in the center of the darkness shone brightly, emitting dark energy that penetrated the space, like a coordinate disappearing into the depths of the void.
Because of the coverage of the black rune formation, the energy fluctuations emitted by the diamond crystals were all absorbed and swallowed up, without causing any impact on the surroundings.
In this case, it will naturally not be discovered by energy detection satellites in the sky.
As the black crystal continued to emit energy information, half an hour later, the crystal suddenly shone brightly, illuminating a blurry image in the depths of darkness.
In the picture, an ancient palace stands, surrounded by black fog. A towering figure sits high on the throne, his eyes looking at the long-haired young man through infinite time and space.
A deep, rich, and indescribably oppressive voice came from the other side: "Akunus, you'd better activate this world-breaking crystal."
The long-haired young man said calmly: "The defense inside Blue Star is tighter than we expected. With the strength of my current clone, the hope of getting the dragon back is very low."
"As for that idiot Chaotolus, he couldn't wait to attack before he could even try twice, and was then killed by a genius from the sixth level of the Federation."
"Otherwise, I will throw it out at the critical moment. With it as a restraint, I am confident that I have a 60% chance of getting the dragon back."
A deep and rich voice came from the other side, saying fearfully: "Kaitorus was killed by those guys from the Federation in the Hundred Dragons Wasteland some time ago."
"I also know the news. I need your help, Guy."
"As long as I can get the dragon back, my strength will be back to its peak in just one year. Then the two of us will have a better chance of success if we join forces to break into that place."
On the other side, the evil god Guy of the Giant God Cult was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "The inner world of the human race is too dangerous. It is impossible for me to cut out a clone to come in."
"But I can give you a demon-slaying puppet. I will extract the power of the law contained in the puppet, leaving only the pure combat body and an activation magic crystal."
"This should allow us to fold time and space and teleport through the fragile plane temporarily formed by the Nether Crystal."
The long-haired young man smiled and said, "With this demon-slaying puppet, I am more confident about the next arrangement."
"Those guys from the Federation wanted to lure me out, and the power they used to protect that little girl was maintained at level six, fearing that I would be afraid and not take action."
"The person they are going to deal with me is an eighth-level cultivator, and because he is afraid of my soul warning, he usually stays a hundred kilometers away."
"Now we have this demon-slaying puppet that has no power of laws, but retains its combat body and has the strength of an early eighth level."
"Coupled with the Invulnerable Demonic Blade that can cut through the realm of a Ninth Heaven cultivator, it will be enough to hold back the Eighth Heaven cultivator for a while before the energy of the magic crystal is exhausted."
"And this time is enough for me to get the dragon back."
As for why he didn't just use the Demon-Slaying Puppet to kill everything, it was naturally because the aura of this puppet could not escape Chu Batian's perception and would easily scare them away.
"As long as you have confidence." Along with the low voice, terrifying power burst out from the towering figure in an instant, shaking the heaven and earth.
Buzz! The crystal in the center of the dark hole vibrated, and a "world" vaguely emerged inside, emitting strong spatial fluctuations.
At this time, the diamond-shaped crystal exploded, and the "world" expanded, forming a dead and empty transparent space that connected the two worlds.
"Now." Boom! A three-meter-tall black "corpse" with arms as sharp as knives was thrown into the dead world by the towering figure.
Instantly, a strong spatial fluctuation broke out, causing waves of strong fluctuations that shook the world endlessly, but they were all absorbed and swallowed up by the black rune formation.
Under the powerful force of the evil god on the opposite side, the horizontal pole slowly rotated in the transparent space of the void, and every time it rotated a little, it would make a crackling sound as if it could not bear the weight.
Just when the space was full of cracks and was about to collapse, it finally turned over.
Bang! As the black puppet fell, the dead space that had already been full of cracks also shattered, and then the void channel collapsed.
However, this time it was not a channel opened up that ran through the two worlds, it was just a projection, so the impact of the destruction was very weak, and it just turned into a typhoon of more than ten levels that swept across the cave.
Looking at the black demon-slaying puppet lying quietly on the ground like a monster, Akunus showed a trace of pain in his eyes.
Because the Nether Crystal that was just broken is very precious, more than ten times more precious than this puppet, which has been integrated with the power of a law and has a strength comparable to that of the Ninth Heaven.
If it wasn't for the dragon this time, it would never have been willing to bring in this World-Breaking Dark Crystal.
This kind of thing contains a part of the "Underworld" inside, and can temporarily form a complete small plane. It is the only divine object that runs through the two worlds.
It is prepared to explore that dangerous place.
But as long as it can get the dragon back, everything will be worth it, and I will make you all pay the price then.
Thinking of this, the long-haired young man's eyes became extremely cold and cruel.
