Time flew by, Li Chen felt that it only took a day or two for his muscles to loosen, and that it was close to the end of Martial Arts Conference, but Ling Yunyu had never come out to challenge anyone.
However, Li Chen had temporarily gotten second place in the Genius Ranking. In the past few days, his score could be said to have risen extremely fast, and every match would have more than a thousand points. This first place in the Genius Ranking could be considered as the last stepping stone for Li Chen.
Ling Yunyu, who was about to come out of seclusion, didn't know that he had already become the stepping stone for Li Chen, but he also forcefully took Li Chen to be his stepping stone.
This was enough to show that the strong were all as arrogant and conceited as the strong.
On this day, Li Chen had beaten all the challengers to the ground just like before, and in the end, no one dared to go up on stage anymore, so Li Chen had to leave the stage early and meditate to recuperate.
However, just as he was halfway there, he was stopped by someone who spoke as if he was very familiar with him.
"Li Chen, you actually didn't listen to the arrangements and challenged me on your own accord. The hall master wants to talk to you now."
The person in black clothes in front of Li Chen, who was obviously from the Demonic Cultivator camp, had a face full of the attitude of someone treating his subordinates, and his tone of voice was cold and commanding.
Li Chen did not understand, he did not want to care about it, and walked over, but did not expect the man to continue shouting: "Li Chen, do not think you do not know what is good for you when your cultivation is higher, without Demon Lord, you are nothing."
This voice made Li Chen stop in his tracks. At the same time, the people passing by also stopped out of curiosity, as if they wanted to watch a show.
"I don't remember knowing someone like you!" Li Chen's tone carried dissatisfaction, disdain and also impatience. He looked at the people who stopped him with disgust.
Du Zhihong was looked at by Li Chen's sharp eyes, and his heart jumped, but was intimidated by Li Chen's fierce and merciless expression for a moment. However, he was also a peak Martial King and immediately recovered. With a dissatisfied look on his face, he said: "You really think you can get away from the Demon Lord after just a few results! "Hehe, you really think highly of yourself.
As Du Zhihong said that, his eyes flashed, and all of the Demonic Cultivator beside him stepped forward as if they were going to suppress Li Chen. Seeing that, Li Chen coldly said: "Are you planning to make your move in broad daylight? "He's quite bold. He's not afraid of being kicked out."
Du Zhihong did not care about what Li Chen said, and arrogantly said, "If we capture our own people, it will not break anyone's rules! Li Chen, stop denying your identity, if you have anything to say, go back and explain it to the hall master! "
The spectators were clear that this was probably the Demonic Cultivator doing its own household chores. But, wasn't Li Chen a rogue cultivator? How did he become a Demonic Cultivator? There were even people who had already investigated about Li Chen and whispered to friends beside them:
"Everyone outside says Li Chen is a Demonic Cultivator, but I don't know if it's true or not. I even heard that he killed a Demonic Cultivator called Zhang Yun Kuang! From the looks of it, it seems to be an internal conflict, is this Li Chen really a Demonic Cultivator? "
When the man said till here, he looked at Li Chen with a puzzled expression. Surrounding him was a group of powerful cultivators with extremely sharp ears, and even the strange parts of the mask that were on Li Chen's face didn't look too good, as he looked at Li Chen.
Li Chen was not a person who just sat there and waited for death. Before the Demonic Cultivator even touched his body, he turned to the side, and the keel bar in his hand immediately swung like a rod, smashing through the person who came over.
Seeing this, Du Zhihong spat, "What a bunch of trash!"
struggled for a good while, but was unable to struggle free. He looked at Du Zhihong with an ugly expression, "What are you guys doing, trying to tie me up!? Heh, you really think a broken rope can tie me up! "
Without waiting for Du Zhihong to speak, Li Chen clenched his right fist and retracted it straight away. The rope that was quickly binding his right hand was immediately pulled back, causing Du Zhihong to stagger a little. If Du Zhihong did not have a bit of strength, the Demon Binding Rope was given to him by the Demon Lord himself from the empty world, it was not inferior to a Heavenly Ranked Spirit Treasure.
Therefore, Li Chen's powerful physical body had only been able to shake the rope a little, but he was already unable to struggle free, and could not control it.
Li Chen saw that the rope was extremely strange, the spiritual strength released a force that instantly covered the rope that was wrapped around him. Once the [Life Transformation] Incantation was executed, the corrosive force immediately followed the rope, but the rope was still undamaged.
On the side, Du Zhihong kindly advised, "Don't waste your energy. Obediently come back with us. You'll suffer less torture. This magic rope isn't just a sharp weapon used to trap people."
Towards Du Zhihong's threats, Li Chen was annoyed. These people kept on getting along with him, going back with every single word he said, thinking that it was really easy to bully Li Chen.
"Break ~"
Following Li Chen's shout, the Spirit Controlling Technique appeared in his mind. It was just as Li Chen had expected, with the artifact spirit and the Spirit Treasure, his strength seemed to be pretty high, but under Li Chen's Spirit Controlling Technique, he could only release the hold on his hand, and with a dance, he attacked Li Chen's face.
That speed was astonishingly fast.
Li Chen was careless, he was directly struck and staggered, the mask on his face suddenly cracked, and dropped onto the ground.
Everyone returned to their senses and looked at Li Chen's left side. Isn't that the Demonic Cultivator's signature black pattern? And after looking at it for a long time, they could still feel that the black pattern was moving.
Amongst the people, an astonished voice immediately sounded out, "They are in a group, this Li Chen is Demonic Cultivator! Look at that face. It's filled with patterns unique to Demonic Cultivator. "
"I never thought that he would actually be a Demonic Cultivator, and even call him a rogue cultivator. His mouth is full of lies!"
"That's right, that's right. This Demonic Cultivator is getting bolder and bolder, he's trying to break into our internal world!"
"That's right, tsk tsk, I thought that rogue cultivators were really that powerful, but I didn't expect them to be opposing Demonic Cultivator."
"They seem to be in internal strife. It's really their style to do it. We can do it after we've crossed the river."
Seeing that he had succeeded, Du Zhihong hid his excitement and replied with an unsightly expression, "Li Chen, no matter what explanation you have, you should tell the hall master yourself. Don't embarrass yourself anymore."
Now, Li Chen finally understood that this was all a play to trap him, and forcefully tied him together. Hehe, even if they could think of it, but he, Li Chen, was not someone to be trifled with.
That's right, Du Zhihong and the others did not manage to recruit Li Chen, they even found out that the black pattern on Li Chen's left cheek was exactly the same as theirs. Although they were curious about Li Chen's left cheek, half of the people outside who had seen Li Chen's left face felt that Li Chen was related to Demonic Cultivator.
That was why it had happened. The so-called three of them became tigers after they spoke too many lies, and after that, it would become true. Moreover, if it was just a rogue cultivator, even if he failed, he would leave behind a bad seed for others, at least, the connection between them could not be broken.
If it was normal that he couldn't win her over, then he would just have to use other methods. But if he didn't succeed, then Li Chen's reputation wouldn't be so good.
However, what they did not know was that Li Chen's next sentence, had directly broken their plans, and even let them know an important matter.
"Your hall master? What hall master? I was the only one who destroyed your Devil Ancestor's land. I don't remember any of the people inside there escaped with their lives from the shattered illusionary Secret Realm. "
Li Chen's words stunned Du Zhihong for a moment. What devil ancestor is this? "
After a while, Du Zhihong suddenly shouted, "You said you destroyed the Devil's Ancestral Land? So, did you also kill the elites of the Demon Abyss and Chiming Hall? "
Du Zhihong's last sentence was already filled with killing intent.
Under Du Zhihong's sudden shout, the surrounding people who were spectating changed their minds once again, and looked at Li Chen with an expression of disbelief and shock.
They had thought that they were in the same group at first, but who would have thought that with just a single sentence from Li Chen, they would be able to get rid of this relationship and reveal such shocking news. Everyone continued to size up Li Chen with probing eyes, but no one dared to look at the left side of Li Chen's face again.
Du Zhihong and the others had originally wanted to force Li Chen to tie himself together with them, but they did not expect that they would know that the origin and culprit behind the collapse of the Devil Ancestor's land was actually Li Chen.
Once the Devil Ancestor's land was destroyed, it was equivalent to cutting off all communication with the Demon Lord. Without the Demon Lord's resources, they could not stay in the upper class and break off the cultivation path of others.
Li Chen replied without hurry: "It's not because of me, but if you all want my life, then I can only take care of you guys first. It's just that, you guys are lucky, you were not there at the time.
Although he said that, but Li Chen's tone was not very good, "Hey, you guys jumped in front of me again. Are you regretting that you did not go down to hell together with your Demon Lord?! "Yes!"
After he finished speaking, when Li Chen released his power, Du Zhihong's legs immediately started to tremble, but he still gritted his teeth and endured. He said fiercely at the same time, "Don't be complacent, you won't be able to escape this debt, hmm."
"Bang ~"
As Du Zhihong's last sentence fell, Li Chen's pressure directly hit him, causing him to kneel on the ground with a loud and clear sound.
