Chapter 736 A Cultivator From The Legendary Immortal World?



Layers of great energies were directed and accumulated in the center, especially toward the talisman held by Man Chong. Its aura rose in great folds, surpassing any mortal limit in the world as it continued to accumulate more and more energy around it.

Ling Tian stared at the rune in Man Chong's hands, who the latter finally smiled slightly with relief that he had done nothing to interrupt him, thus letting him finish activating all the formations for his use.

Three bright swords full of energy and highly consolidated appeared within the barrier that restrained Lu Wuhu and the others. Lu Wuhu activated his most powerful move: [99 Heavenly Swords]. With only three Heavenly Swords they aimed in front of Lu Wuhu's formation and stabbed into key points of the barrier, while Lu Wuhu concentrated his cultivation essence and tried to break it.

Anguish filled Lu Wuhu as he saw that Man Chong was in complete control of the defensive and offensive formations of the entire Sect! Perhaps Ling Tian did not know the full power of the Sect's formations, but he, being one of the main ones who built the defensive and offensive formation of the place knew its horror! Especially when Lu Wuhu noticed upon his arrival that the formations seemed to be different, while the primordial rune in Man Chong's hands seemed to have been modified so that it could be controlled by a single person!

Xue Ning was about to help Lu Wuhu try to break through the barrier when at once she saw Ling Tian's calm smile as he looked at her, nodding to her that all was okay. Xue Ning loosened the strength in her hands that held her spiritual weapons.

A petal of a wonderful spiritual orchid appeared and enveloped both Long Yuyin who was outside the formation. Long Yuyin thanked Xuanyuan Ling who had taken out her defensive artifact to protect herself with a smile.

"This is really bad..." Nalan Ziqing murmured worriedly as she saw the large amounts of energy accumulating on the place. She knew about the protections in the big sects capable of defending against great powers or other enemy forces, so being activated to face a single enemy was even more terrifying.

"Will senior brother be all right? Why don't I see him worried?" Shan Qingwu suddenly asked curiously, but clearly without a hint of fear. Whether it was because of the time she had spent with the other women or because of her complete trust in Ling Tian, Shan Qingwu was becoming more and more like Mu Shuiruo and the others, remaining calm and confident in the face of any situation when Ling Tian was present.

"My husband will be fine! If he's not worried then there's no point in us worrying for no reason."

Mu Shuiruo responded tenderly as she nodded at Shan Qingwu's confidence and reassurance. Her expression showed no signs of worry, terror or anxiety at what was happening even though the situation was not favorable.

"Are you sure? It seems that you haven't recovered all your power and if something goes wrong in controlling all this power it will be very counterproductive even for you, who are an immortal."

Ling Tian suddenly commented calmly, drawing everyone's attention and even stopping Lu Wuhu's action.

This guy really is a cultivator from the legendary Immortal World?

Man Chong's face remained unchanged as if he didn't mind being discovered and, this time, he responded in the same manner: "As long as you don't mess up all of our plans, then this sacrifice will be worth it." His voice seemed to contain no signs of untruth or falsehood.

"All those elders hidden in your sect, are they also injured like you? How long ago did you fall to this world from the higher plane? It has to be at least more than a thousand years..." Ling Tian asked with interest. A smile that seemed to know everything was plastered on his handsome face.

And yet, Man Chong did not respond. He raised his hands and all the vast amount of spiritual energy concentrated on top of them, as if he had the ability and authority to control the world.

Man Chong could not believe what he was seeing. This had surpassed any reason or thought he had. How could there be someone who could absorb exorbitant amounts of energy without their bodies instantly exploding? It was impossible! This energy would be able to shatter a peak cultivator at the pinnacle of this world in one explosion!

The energy compacted and gathered in the air was five times more than the total capacity of a peak cultivator at the pinnacle of the Great Ascension!

Not even this guy with a great achievement in body refinement reaching the half-immortal body should be unscathed!

Even a cultivator at the Human Immortal realm would not come out unscathed!

Ling Tian let out a comfortable sigh. Somehow he felt as if he was taking a refreshing bath while enveloped in these exaggerated and gigantic amounts of spiritual energy. Although the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures inside his body were the ones absorbing this energy, this was like his temporary dantian, so the energy was for himself and he felt it as his own, almost similar to when he broke through and reached a new realm.

Lu Wuhu and the others looked at Ling Tian strangely unable to say anything. Even Mu Shuiruo and Long Yuyin were stunned for a few seconds to see that this husband of theirs could withstand absorbing abundant energies without a problem before remembering what it could be due to thanks to his heavenly treasure.

Man Chong activated the rune in his hands again, trying to force it as he tried to gather more energy faster. Maybe this guy was putting up a facade and might be about to fall once the whatever special defense artifact he has breaks!

No one can absorb into their bodies large amounts without exploding!

Especially when these energies exceed the limit set in the foundations or worlds!

The remaining energy in the formations of the entire sect began to be mobilized again. Even the small and inconspicuous formations that had not been activated were suddenly mobilized, creating another exorbitant amount of spiritual energy in the sky in the center of the sect, drawing horrified and terrified looks from all the disciples as they did not know what was going on.

"Senior! Please save me, I will become your slave!"

"Great Elder, you promised to save us! I don't want to die!"

"Don't kill us! We will do whatever you ask us to do!"

"We will help you to completely conquer the sect as we agreed!"

The so-called leaders and elders who were on the spot and had fought with Long Yuyin exclaimed for their lives as they saw another large compact energy much larger than the previous one form, even reaching them and preventing them from moving as they felt they were forced to their knees. Even their most powerful defensive devices were destroyed like a piece of paper as they failed to withstand the pressure.

Man Chong did not even turn to look at them. He only stared at Ling Tian looking for any sign that he was about to fall from internal injuries.

Ling Tian lifted the corners of his mouth in amusement as he understood the thought Man Chong was having about him.

"Haha! Come on! Don't waste the only chance you have to save your life!"

Ling Tian laughed defiantly towards Man Chong, his smirk growing more expectant as he saw the large amount of gathered spiritual energy falling towards him.
