Chen Lan discerned the meaning in the mystery person's words and frowned, asking, "You know about the Celestial Eye? Have you encountered Yang Jian?"
[Haha, so that arrogant fellow is called Yang Jian. Although I'm not sure if you're talking about the same person, that guy has a Celestial Eye just like yours, which is quite annoying!]
The moment the words were spoken, the chains became wild and agitated, swinging erratically, crackling like whips as they lashed toward Chen Lan.
While cutting the chains, Chen Lan used the Celestial Eye to scan above the dark clouds. His Divine Sense could not penetrate above, as though something was blocking it.
But it seemed the Celestial Eye could; when he looked up, he saw a stunning scene—hidden above the sky, there appeared to be another world!
He couldn't see it clearly, only vaguely noticing that the world resembled ancient scenes from a TV show, with carriages, inns, and people dressed in ancient clothing.
Quickly, the Celestial Eye transmitted a wave of pain, warning him not to continue observing; something in that world was blocking him, denying him further view.
He withdrew his gaze from the Celestial Eye and began scanning other areas to locate the mystery person.
Before long, he spotted a middle-aged man dressed in white robes, with long white whiskers, gently stroking his beard with one hand, and his eyes gazing directly at him.
This must be the one!
Without hesitation, Chen Lan charged in that direction, intending to return those chains to their owner.
Above the dark clouds, the man noticed Chen Lan charging toward him and paused in surprise.
"Hmm? Could it be he found my location?" the man wondered aloud. He had a Concealing Treasure, which should prevent cultivators below his realm from seeing him.
Although his current realm was restricted to that of the Great Emperor, the treasure was based on his true realm; technically, Chen Lan shouldn't be able to detect his presence.
Yet now, this native seemed to have indeed discovered him, for his gaze appeared fixed upon him!
Seeing Chen Lan and the chains rushing towards him, the man suddenly realized and quickly retreated: "Damn it, he really found out. If it comes to a fight, it won't end well for me, and killing him without triggering that array is as difficult as ascending to heaven!"
Damn it, if it weren't for that damned array, he would've killed Chen Lan long ago without resorting to these tactics!
I really don't know who set up this array that's been troubling them for millions of years.
"Old bastard, don't run!" Chen Lan grinned, noticing that the old bastard was retreating continuously, clearly afraid, and his speed increased significantly.
"Since you're courting death, I'm putting everything into this incarnation and will fight you to the end!" the man shouted in anger.
This incarnation he sent here, if lost, would severely reduce his realm, a significant disadvantage, especially since there was a challenge in a few days that he would have to postpone for thousands of years to rest enough.
Using this incarnation to perish together with this guy is worth it!
Gritting his teeth, the man unleashed his full aura, seemingly about to break through beyond the Great Emperor and reach an even higher realm.
He intended to forcefully break through the Heaven and Earth Laws to annihilate Chen Lan!
Feeling the man's aura suddenly surge, Chen Lan frowned tightly. Is he planning a forced breakthrough?
To such lengths just to kill him?
As the man's power grew, the chains sped up, quickly reaching behind Chen Lan and coiling around his abdomen like pythons!
Seeing Chen Lan entangled, the people below were in shock.
"No good, the Great Emperor is caught!"
"We're doomed now; the Great Emperor has been caught. Hopefully, nothing serious happens to him."
"It should be fine; we have to trust the Great Emperor."
Everyone was on edge, with all hope resting on Chen Lan; nothing must happen to him.
"What should we do?" Tao Tian Demon Venerable voiced his concern, looking towards Emperor Luo Tianlong.
"Let's go; we must buy time for our master," Emperor Luo Tianlong said solemnly, leading the charge.
Tao Tian Demon Venerable and the Auspicious Qilin followed suit.
Among the group, their strengths were the greatest, but behind them, even the Blood Demon also charged out.
"Dragon Axe Sweep!"
"Heaven-Overturning Demon Blade!"
"..."
The four simultaneously unleashed their strongest divine techniques to help Chen Lan cut those chains.
Emperor Luo Tianlong wielded two large gold axes, hacking furiously, each swing bringing endless radiance with terrifying and shocking power, shaking heaven and earth, warping space.
Tao Tian Demon Venerable condensed a large blade imbued with boundless blood-slaughter aura, a hundred meters long, slicing the chains heavily.
Despite their help, their assistance was negligible, far too weak.
Within seconds, more than a dozen chains bound Chen Lan, securing his arms and legs, making him immobile.
Still, Chen Lan's face didn't show much panic; instead, he looked at the man with a smile.
[Die!!!]
Above the dark clouds, the man roared fiercely, a golden spear forming in his hand, thrown towards Chen Lan, the spear rushing like a javelin at him with extreme speed.
"Break!" Chen Lan uttered softly, the Power Dao Power flooding his body, instantly shattering the chains binding him.
He wielded the Treasure Tower in one hand and the Red Sword in the other, offering them both to collide with the golden spear!
Bang!!!
Powerful spiritual energy clashed, creating shock waves. Emperor Luo Tianlong and the others had no time for Spiritual Qi Body Protection and were blasted away.
Those below had no time to react, instantly thrown, some dead, others wounded.
[Do you think, relying on just you, you can resist me?]
The man laughed coldly; now, infinitely surpassing the Great Emperor, killing Chen Lan was easy!
"Who said it was just me?" Chen Lan smiled, his gaze shifting behind the man.
Suddenly, a golden light shimmered across Blue Star's sky. This golden light flickered continuously, flashing faster and faster as if something had been activated.
The man was suddenly alarmed, his Divine Sense detected the surface array of Blue Star being activated.
Not good, his forceful breakthrough indeed triggered the array's detection. Also, the Heaven and Earth Laws do not permit his forced breakthrough, and this realm's laws are strong, temporarily beyond his ability to resolve!
He looked at Chen Lan, unleashing his full power, pouring spiritual energy into that spear. Even if he died, he would take Chen Lan down with him!
After all, exchanging his incarnation for Chen Lan's real body wasn't a loss.
Chen Lan naturally sensed the man's strength gradually increasing, but he wasn't one to sit idly by.
In an instant, he injected several highly destructive Dao Powers, including Reincarnation Power, Destruction Power, Time Dao Power, and Thunder Dao Power, into both the Treasure Tower and the Red Sword.
Seeing this, the man's pupils contracted sharply.
[You lunatic, you're truly a lunatic!]
Combining so many destructive Dao Powers could unleash an apocalyptic force that might obliterate the entire cosmos.
Chen Lan was willing to do anything to kill him, truly a madman!
At that moment, hundreds of golden chains suddenly flew over from a distance, aiming not at Chen Lan but at the man.
[Damn Heaven and Earth Laws!]
