Judging from the actions of the vengeful spirit in front of him, he undoubtedly wanted to explode and perish together with Lu Chen!Upon thinking of this, Lu Chen"s mind went blank, unable to comprehend what was going on.
He was about to self-destruct!
What was going on?
Unfortunately, at this moment, Lu Chen could not care less!
At this critical moment, Lu Chen did not have any time to think. He pushed his true qi to its limits without holding back.Immediately after, his body moved. With a stomp on the ground, he immediately executed the G.o.dly Thunder Steps and disappeared from where he stood.
He used all of his strength to rush towards the exit of the tomb.
Since the vengeful spirit had chosen the method of self-destructing, Lu Chen naturally would not go head to head with it. At most, he would only be able to put up an effective defense during critical moments.
For now, the only way was to exhaust its strength. It was the safest way, and the only way.At this moment, Lu Chen was executing the Heavenly Thunder Steps to the limit. As he flew forward, he dodged the falling rocks and soil.
Suddenly, a five-meter-wide rock came crashing down in front of him with the force of ten thousand catties.With the huge rock acting as if it had calculated beforehand, Lu Chen was unable to dodge it.
Lu Chen quickly halted his steps, just barely dodging the attack in front of him.
Not only was this vengeful spirit"s strength extraordinary, it was also sinister and cunning. Its strength was completely incomparable to the soul that had just turned into Dao Ba.
The five-meter-wide boulder that fell in front of him had almost completely blocked the entrance to the tomb, with not a single crack remaining.Now that his path had been cut off, Lu Chen couldn"t help but feel his head tighten.
Other than this, there were also black qi lingering on the surface of the greyish white rock.
Clearly, this piece of rock had been strengthened by the black gas. Its hardness could not be compared to ordinary rocks.
The tomb path had been completely sealed off. If one wanted to break open this huge rock, it would undoubtedly take a lot of effort.
There was a huge obstacle in front, and the vengeful spirit was just about to self-destruct. At that moment, Lu Chen actually did not know how to advance or retreat.
The vengeful spirit"s voice closed in once again, "Little Daoist, don"t even think about taking that old man"s pearl with you today."
The vengeful spirit suddenly turned into a sinister ghost face. Its appearance was extremely frightening."I will not let him keep his things. With the power of my self-detonation, I can finally destroy this bead. Tsk tsk tsk."
It issued a strange sound that made people ache in their teeth, crying out non-stop, "You little brat, it just so happens that you want to hit this bead at this time, just wait to die!"The words of the vengeful spirit were clearly heard by Lu Chen. It turned out that its true purpose was not to target him, but the purple pearl hidden in the secret compartment.
From the looks of it, the reason why this vengeful spirit had been within the secret compartment was so that it could find an opportunity to destroy the purple jade bead.
Was it because he had broken through the barrier of the secret compartment that he had given this vengeful spirit the chance?Lu Chen understood what was going on, but there was no time for him to think about other things. It was imperative for him to escape first.
Immediately after, Lu Chen turned to the side, his gaze focused on the black mist behind him.
The black mist became denser, as if it was real.
This was a black mist condensed from the purest black energy, and it was also the source of the power emitted by this vengeful spirit"s self-detonation!
There was nothing fancy about this fog.
Even so, Lu Chen could feel an enormous pressure contained within the black mist, a power that could destroy the heavens and earth.Not only that, the black mist"s speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it had already arrived, quickly charging towards Lu Chen.
As the black fog flew by, even the air was turned into nothingness wherever it pa.s.sed.
If they were hit by the black mist, even if they didn"t die, they would at least lose a layer of skin.
Lu Chen was strong enough to fight against a peak Earth Stage expert, but no matter what, he could not defend against the explosion of a peak Earth Stage expert.
The moment the vengeful spirit took action, it would destroy Lu Chen along with his pearl, not giving him any chance to resist.
In that moment of life and death, the mysterious purple bead in Lu Chen"s arms suddenly flew out and floated above his head.The purple jade bead began to rapidly spin faster and faster. In just an instant, it was almost impossible to see its true appearance.
Suddenly, the jade bead began to radiate with great radiance, emitting a dazzling purple radiance.
At that moment, the black mist condensed by the vengeful spirit also flew at the jade bead.
Lu Chen stared unblinkingly at the jade bead and the black fog. What shocked him was that the black fog did not cross the jade bead and attack him.
The purple light emitted by the bead seemed to have an indescribable power, pulling the black fog away.
The black mist actually began to be absorbed and absorbed by the purple jade bead. The entire process happened very quickly.
Lu Chen stared blankly at the scene in front of him. This purple jade bead actually had natural restraint towards this black fog.
Surprised, he thought for a moment. It wasn"t hard to understand.Although he wasn"t able to see through the jade bead at the moment, as an ancient treasure, it naturally had its own unique features.
He just didn"t know how the beads in his arms could suddenly fly out to meet the enemy.
At the same time, Lu Chen quickly came back to his senses. He didn"t know when the little fox had disappeared …
Finally, Lu Chen"s gaze focused on the purple jade bead above him. He suddenly understood that the reason the purple jade bead flew out from his chest was because the little fox had acted in time.
If his guess was right, the little fox would be within the purple jade bead.
However, this purple jade bead had already been sealed by the little fox when it investigated. How could it suddenly be driven again?
"You actually know how to use that old geezer"s item? How could it be like this …."At this time, the ghost face that was formed by the vengeful spirit became even more ferocious as it cried out hatefully.
Before the howls could finish, the black mist formed by the vengeful spirit was quickly torn apart, turning into a cloud of black qi that converged onto the purple jade bead.
In less than three seconds, all of the black fog that had filled the tunnel was completely absorbed by the purple jade bead.
The tomb chamber regained its tranquility, and the purple jade bead slowly floated back into Lu Chen"s palm.Having survived the calamity, Lu Chen did not have the time to rejoice when he saw the little fox fly out from the purple jade bead.
He could clearly see that the little fox"s spirit body had become abnormally faint, as if it had become transparent.
This time, the little fox suddenly made a move. Lu Chen almost couldn"t react in time, which showed how decisive the little fox"s attack was.
This also showed how critical the situation was at that time!
He didn"t know what kind of method the little fox had used to subdue the vengeful spirit even though it had clearly sealed the jade bead.
However, as a Nine-tailed Sky Fox, it had some special abilities, which made Lu Chen quite relieved.
Although Lu Chen was extremely curious, this was not the time to ask about it.However, the consumption that the little fox had expended was not as great as when it was using its flames. In fact, it had consumed even more.
At this moment, Lu Chen once again saw the little fox"s incomparably weak appearance and couldn"t help but feel waves of heartache.
