Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 1709
Chapter 1709 Stall For Time!
At noon, the blazing sun hung high, releasing a scorching light that selflessly sprinkled all over the world, regardless of status or race, so that everyone could enjoy its enthusiasm.
In the main hall of the Li Tian Sect, all the hall masters and elders were present. Lu Changgao sat on the throne and someone hurriedly reported, “Sect Master, the Qin Sect has invaded. The distance is less than a hundred miles.”
Lu Chang stood up, his eyes glittering as he coldly said, “Everyone, the life and death of the Li Tian Sect is in this battle!” There must be a huge sacrifice. Everyone’s pride and honor will pay a huge price in this battle. However, as long as Qin Fei breaks through to the Heaven Viewing Realm, he will be able to make our sect a Third Grade Spirit Sect. This is an unprecedented feat! Are you willing to bear witness with me? ”
“We are willing!” Everyone cheered loudly.
Lu Chang nodded and ordered the halls to act according to the previous plan. This time, there was only one goal. He tried his best to preserve the strength of the sect to block the Qin Sect’s attack and buy Qin Fei enough time.
Therefore, this battle was completely different from the past.
Xiao Xuan’s army quickly approached the foot of Mount Li. When they arrived aggressively, they were shocked and somewhat puzzled!
Lu Chang led the important members of the Li Tian Sect and did not take out their magic treasures. Instead, he looked at them with a smile as if he was welcoming an old friend.
Xiao Xuan thought to himself, what the hell was this old man Lu Chang doing? Why did he have such an attitude?
“Haha, Brother Xiao, long time no see!” Lu Chang laughed loudly and took the initiative to quickly greet him.
Xiao Xuan didn’t know why, but he waved his hand and called the army to stop. He walked to the front of the army and looked at Lu Chang doubtfully, saying, “Lu Chang, what tricks are you using?”
Lu Chang stood ten meters in front of him and said with a smile, “Brother Xiao, you think too much. I don’t dare to play any tricks. I understand Brother Xiao’s purpose in coming here. For the sake of the thousands of disciples in Li Tian Sect, I have already thought it through. If you want anything, just say it. I will definitely do it!”
Xiao Xuan frowned more and more tightly. What exactly was going on? It was completely different from what he had expected. He had originally thought that this would be a bloody battle, but he didn’t expect Lu Chang to surrender on his own initiative. Wasn’t this not in line with his style?
“Lu Chang, don’t try to deceive us. Show us your moves. We’ll fight three hundred rounds!” He said coldly.
Lu Changzhi shook his head and said, “Brother Xiao, don’t be angry. I really don’t have any other thoughts. I just want to avoid a bloody battle so as to prevent our sect from suffering! Brother Xiao, lead the army here and explain your purpose directly. I will definitely satisfy you with everything!”
Xiao Xuan rolled his eyes. He thought to himself, “It can’t be that easy, right?” Lu Chang kept saying this, could it be true?
“Well,” he probed, “we’re here for the same purpose. We want you, Li Tian Sect, to disappear from here on out. Can you do it?”
Lu Chang smiled and said, “It’s no problem to disappear, but we have to give us some time. After all, there are so many people in the sect, it can’t be solved in just a couple of seconds!”
Xiao Xuan laughed and said disdainfully, “I told you, you are clearly stalling for time! Stop wasting your saliva, hurry up and fight!”
Lu Chang smiled bitterly, “Why? Fighting and killing is so boring. It’s not good for both sides. How about this, I’ll tell you the Nine Nether Prison’s entry and exit spell. Anyway, everyone knows what the other party’s goal is. I’m here to beg for peace. Brother Xiao is here to beg for treasure. I’ll take the initiative to hand it over to you.”
Xiao Xuan was stunned. He was ecstatic in his heart. It was really too easy. This Lu Chang was actually willing to tell him the Nine Nether Prison’s entry and exit spell. This was simply a great thing.
He hurriedly said, “Hurry up and tell me!”
However, Lu Chang shook his head and said, “No, I know very well who is behind you. I need to call that person out!”
Xiao Xuan’s mind raced as he thought about whether he should call the Heaven Viewing Realm expert from the Frost Soul Sect. If he told the other party, wouldn’t he be unable to complete the mission?
Just as he was thinking, a figure broke through the sky. It was the special envoy of the Frost Soul Sect. He hovered in mid-air and looked down at Lu Chang. “Lu Chang, if you are really willing to hand over the Nine Nether Prison, I can guarantee that you, Li Tian Sect, can survive and obtain unexpected benefits!”
Lu Chang hurriedly said, “Thank you, but in order to ensure the safety of my sect’s disciples, I need you to retreat a hundred miles away and give me ten days.”
“Ten days? You want to play tricks!” The envoy stared coldly at Lu Chang.
Lu Chang smiled bitterly, “I’m not playing tricks, but the Nine Nether Prison’s entry and exit spell is not as simple as you think. If I told you a spell, would you believe me?”
The envoy said coldly, “Of course not. If you dare to lie to me, everyone in the entire Li Tian Sect will die!”
Lu Chang said, “That’s right. Whether the spell is true or not, you have to personally use it to know. Of course, the target is the Nine Nether Prison. Everyone knows that the Nine Nether Prison will take another nine years to open. Do you have to wait until nine years before you can verify the authenticity of the spell?” Therefore, I want these ten days to gather the power of the entire sect to forcefully use the Nine Nether Prison to open a hole, so that you can verify the authenticity! Moreover, ten days is just my rough estimate. I’m not sure how long it will take. ”
The envoy thought for a moment and his gaze was no longer as sharp as before. “Alright then, according to what you said, I’ll give you time to complete it. The Qin Sect will surround the Li Tian Sect a hundred miles away, and no one is allowed to go out!”
At this time, Xiao Xuan shouted, “My lord, he said that the time is uncertain. What if it is ten or eight years? This fellow is definitely playing tricks!”
The envoy said coldly, “What are you talking about? Will I be unprepared for this? Lu Chang, give me a time limit!”
Lu Chang thought for a moment and said, “It should be possible within a month!”
“What if it can’t be done in a month?” Xiao Xuan said.
Lu Chang smiled bitterly, “If you can’t do it, then the entry and exit spells will not be verified. What do you think you should do?”
Xiao Xuan was speechless. This matter was really difficult to handle. It was impossible for him to say that he would kill everyone from the Li Tian Sect in a month, right? When the time comes, how can we verify the authenticity?
At this moment, the envoy said coldly, “Don’t play tricks. If there is one more month and one more day, then kill a hundred disciples of the Li Tian Sect. From low to high, kill a hundred more disciples every day. I want to see how many disciples of your Li Tian Sect are enough to kill!”
Xiao Xuan was overjoyed and hurriedly flattered him to say a good idea.
Lu Chang was too lazy to say anything. He brought his men back to the sect and really gathered his men to form a grand formation in the plaza. A steady stream of Spiritual Qi emitted from each of them and disappeared into the ground.
Xiao Xuan led his troops back a hundred li and stationed himself. He said to the envoy, “My lord, it’s a little strange. Why is Qin Fei nowhere to be seen?”
The envoy glanced at him and said, “What are you worried about? Our goal is the Nine Nether Prison. Qin Fei is not a threat at all! Send someone to keep an eye on Lu Chang and see if they are doing anything with all their heart! I’ll go back to the sect and explain the situation!”
After saying that, he left. Since the Li Tian Sect was willing to hand over the Nine Nether Prison, he had to report it to the sect immediately.
Xiao Xuan sent people to monitor and found that Lu Chang was really exporting spiritual energy with his people. He thought that he was really using some method to forcefully open the Nine Nether Prison. He did not understand these things, so he slowly waited and did not think about anything else.
However, he didn’t know that Lu Chang was leading the people in the sect. The spiritual energy he exported wasn’t to open the Nine Nether Prison, nor was it to cultivate on his own. Instead, it was to continuously infuse the spiritual energy into the ground, reaching the bottom of the Mount Li and merging into the underground spiritual veins, so as to help Qin Fei fuse with the spiritual veins as soon as possible and resolve the crisis in Li Tian Sect.
One day later, the special envoy came back and called Xiao Xuan. He said that the higher-ups would temporarily accept Lu Chang’s method. If they didn’t hand over the Nine Nether Prison in a month, they would directly kill him. Killing an extra 100 people every day would put pressure on Lu Chang and the others.
The Special Envoy also personally went to monitor the situation, but he did not find any problems. He was relieved and waited patiently.
He was also careless. Seeing that Lu Chang and the others were exporting spiritual energy, he didn’t care where they were going. He just thought that they were really opening the Nine Nether Prison.
After all, the Nine Nether Prison was the Overlord Realm. There were too many secrets and mysteries in it. Other than the people from the Li Tian Sect, no one knew how to open the Nine Nether Prison. He felt that he was too lazy to ask about things he didn’t understand. In any case, the deadline was only one month. He would know in a month.
Time passed very quickly. Soon, twenty days passed. In the end, Xiao Xuan and the special envoy were too lazy to send people to monitor. Lu Chang and the others hadn’t moved in the past twenty days. Surveillance was meaningless. It was really boring.
