At the same moment that Sima Yun moved, Duanmu"s heart leaped into his throat.Just as he was about to move, an old man from the Duanmu Clan stopped him.
After all, Lu Chen had done a favour for the Duanmu Family. The rest of the Duanmu Family would not intervene.
However, they didn"t want to offend the Sima family because of Lu Chen.Even if Duanmu Fu was willing to sell Lu Chen a favor, the people of the Duanmu Family behind him would still try their best to stop him because of their own interests.
Situ Liuyun"s speed was extremely fast. In just an instant, he had arrived in front of Lu Chen.
At the same time, the sound of thunder rumbled in Lu Chen"s legs.But just as he moved, Lu Chen was shocked to discover that he was surrounded by a dense layer of quicksand.
His speed was simply too fast.
Although he still had a long way to go before he could speak, being able to do so much was already extremely valuable.
The movements of the quicksand were unpredictable and unpredictable. It was ever-changing, and it was difficult to capture the patterns within.
The Heavenly Thunder Steps that Lu Chen executed was a movement technique, using speed as its use. However, right now, it was surrounded by sand that was emitting a sharp aura.It was as if a light touch could submerge his flesh and blood in quicksand.
It was obvious that once he was entangled by this quicksand, Lu Chen would be in dire straits.
At this moment, Lu Chen discovered that his entire body was locked down.
Even with his heaven-defying movement technique, he was unable to escape the encirclement of the quicksand.
"This is bad..."
Just a moment ago, Lu Haichao, who was absorbing the Spiritual Energy of the Innate Soul Gathering Symbol, had already noticed the movements of Sima Yun.Seeing Lu Chen"s current situation, he couldn"t help but worry for him.
Lu Haichao even felt a sense of loss, as if his family members were in danger.
For a moment, he didn"t know why he had a feeling —
Lu Chen was a member of the Lu family!
Of course, many of these reasons were due to the fact that Lu Chen and Lu Qingtian shared the exact same facial contours.
As Lu Chen"s face was gradually covered up by the quicksand, Lu Haichao finally had the urge to break down.At this moment, he wanted to leap out and pull Lu Chen out of the quicksand without a care for anything else!
However, once he regained his consciousness, Lu Haichao knew that this was an impossible task.
He was very clear about Sima Yun"s terrifying strength.
The other two people of Lu Hai Dong"s group were like Lu Hai Yang, staring at the scene unblinkingly.
Under this kind of disadvantage, there was little chance that Lu Chen would be able to counterattack.However, everyone had the same thought in their minds.
The sect that backed Lu Chen was a real existence, and no matter how arrogant Sima Yun was, he still had to be wary of him.
No matter what, it would not endanger Lu Chen"s life, right?
Otherwise, to be able to cultivate such a monstrous talent, no matter how strong the Sima family was, they would still be removed from the list if Lu Chen"s sect decided to pursue this matter.Most importantly, the crowd present probably wouldn"t be able to get anything good out of it.
Unless Sima Yun himself made room for escape, few people would be able to escape from him. It was almost a narrow escape.
Amongst the rest of the people present, there were quite a few experts from the Celestial Sect of Wonders who had some sort of relationship with Lu Chen.
A portion of the people had received a favor from Lu Chen from the Blood Souls in the underground palace.
For example, the Wu family that Wu Qifan was in, the Wu family"s young miss, Wu Siqi, had also been cured by Lu Chen.As for Shangguan Fengxing, he was very clear on the fact that he had been cured by Lu Chen because of Shangguan Zixi"s hidden injuries within the Four Symbols Demon Sealing Formation.
There were also other family powers that more or less received Lu Chen"s help.
But even so, this was not enough to cause them to fall in love with the Sima family, or even cause them to fall out on the spot.To this, other than sighing softly, they had no other actions to take.
They were silently waiting for the final result. They wanted to see how Sima Liuyun would handle this matter.At this moment, due to the use of the Heavenly Thunder Steps, it was already too late for Lu Chen to cast the Limitless Thunder Curse now.
This was all because of Sima Liuyun"s extremely fast speed. He simply did not have enough time to react and do anything else.In the time it took for a spark to fly off of a piece of flint, the earthen-yellow quicksand that Sima Liuyun had transformed into had completely wrapped around Lu Chen.
At this moment, Lu Chen was like catching a turtle in a jar.
Sima Yun"s Quicksand Technique was simply the bane of Lu Chen"s Mouthy Mountain Technique and Heavenly Thunder Steps.
In the face of this Quicksand Technique, any movement technique was like a bird with its wings cut off, unable to touch the sky.At this moment, the earthen yellow quicksand seemed to have merged with the earth, using the earth as its root and the sand as its foundation.
The sand dune that trapped Lu Chen within looked like a sand dune that was half the height of a man from afar.
Immediately after, the airtight sand dune shrunk at a speed visible to the naked eye, attempting to devour the trapped Lu Chen.
Everyone present shook their heads and sighed. What they had expected happened.Sima Liuyun had very few failures, moreover, he was one of the main forces of the Sima family.
Even if Sima Yun was on the same level as a Quasi-Earth Stage expert, he was still an existence that others could only look at.
This was also because the Quicksand Technique did not have many paths, and its moves were unpredictable. It was always able to gather all the strength in one point, making it difficult for others to resist.After this battle, even if Sima Liuyun had some leeway, Lu Chen would still be severely injured.
At this moment, Duanmu Fu"s eyes were red. He unconsciously touched his chest and wore a safety b.u.t.ton.
Although this was not a double array jade talisman, the effect of calming one"s mind and dispersing the evil energy was extremely obvious.
In addition, the Duanmu family"s Patriarch, who was deeply afflicted with hostility, also needed Lu Chen"s help.
However, today"s matter happened right in front of his eyes and he was powerless.At this moment, Duanmu Huanghun"s hand, which was placed in front of his chest, couldn"t help but tighten.
Following that, Duanmu Fu heard a loud noise. His eyes widened as he looked at the scene before him in shock.
The earthen-yellow sand surrounding Lu Chen"s body suddenly exploded. The sand that flew in all directions also quickly condensed at this moment. A black robed figure appeared in front of everyone"s eyes once again.
Everyone present revealed an expression of extreme shock, but with the experienced eyes of these experts from the Celestial Sect of Wonders.After hesitating for a moment, he came to a conclusion.
It was actually a protective jade talisman!
Lu Chen stood there, unscathed, as if nothing had happened.A body protecting jade talisman that could block a blow from a quasi Earth Stage powerhouse, what level would it reach?
Wouldn"t it mean that the rank of a jade talisman would already belong to the Earth Stage …?
When they thought of Earth Stage, everyone was shocked.
An existence like this was too much of a shock to these half-step-to Earth Stage experts.
The treasures on Lu Chen"s body were endless. When the people present looked at him, there was even fear in their eyes.
This kind of protective jade talisman was equivalent to giving him an additional life!
What was called foundation? This was foundation.
No wonder he was so calm from start to finish. So it turned out that he was this confident and did not fear Sima Liuyun"s methods at all.
