Chapter 408: 405 Lin Jianying
“Vanished?”
“How is that possible?”
“How could such a trendous power simply vanish in an instant?”
…
The disappearance of that attack from Elder Mountain stunned all the onlookers.
Almost instantly, two words erged in everyone’s minds.
“Is it the Gate?”
Along with the appearance of the “Gate,” ca an insatiable greed that could not be suppressed.
“Yes, it must be. Only the Gate could have neutralized such a terrifying attack!”
“Pang Duddu must possess a fragnt of the Gate!”
“And it’s not just any ordinary fragnt of the Gate!”
At that mont, countless hearts were stirred into madness.
They were desperate to rush into Elder Mountain and snatch the Gate Fragnt for themselves.
Seeing the power displayed by just the fragnt, possessing it would virtually make them invincible.
But as tempted as they were, hardly anyone took action.
After all, that was Elder Mountain.
The mountain had not fallen, and nobody dared to act recklessly.
Of course, this included Lu Wu.
Upon realizing what was happening, he was stunned at first, then a wild joy spread across his face.
But the look of elation did not last long, as he couldn’t help but feel panicked.
After all, the commotion that girl had caused had far exceeded his imagination. It was big enough to make him lose his senses.
Normally, Lu Wu would maintain his rationality regardless of the situation.
If it were soone else, say Lu Haikong, rampaging through Elder Mountain, Lu Wu would not have bothered to look.
A wise man does not court danger, which he understood.
But with Duddu involved, Lu Wu couldn’t sit still.
Even though he knew that his current power would be of little use even if he went there,
he still couldn’t control himself.
Throwing caution to the wind, he rushed towards Elder Mountain.
However, as soon as Lu Wu moved, a mysterious force erupted within Elder Mountain.
It was a powerful force that Lu Wu had never encountered before.
This force enveloped the whole of Elder Mountain.
Simultaneously, a strong premonition of fear surged within him.
His instinct told him not to go any closer to Elder Mountain.
If he did, he might carelessly lose his life.
This baseless fear grew stronger as Lu Wu drew nearer.
From a hundred miles away, his heart began to race.
Within a hundred miles, he felt his blood rushing faster.
Within fifty miles, his scalp tingled.
Within twenty miles, his body stiffened, and as he approached Elder Mountain, Lu Wu found himself completely unable to move.
“Move, move, why are you stopping? Move!” he ntally urged himself.
But it was to no avail; an imnse fear took control of his body, rendering him immobile.
The overpowering sense of fear firmly pinned Lu Wu down, ten miles away from the mountain.
While Lu Wu was engulfed by fear, the condition of the elders within Elder Mountain was not much better at this mont.
They had been panicking since their attack got absorbed.
And as Duddu’s fragnt above her head erupted, enveloping all of Elder Mountain,
a fear many tis more intense than Lu Wu’s afflicted the Eleven Elders.
They realized that what they faced was not just Duddu alone, but the power of the Gate, a vast force capable of changing the world.
Though they were only facing a fragnt, its power was definitely not sothing they could resist.
They would die, facing this force they would truly die.
Under this realization, the elders were incredibly fearful.
“Lady Pang, don’t kill us, the earlier hostility towards you was Chairman Li’s idea—it has nothing to do with us. Please, don’t kill us!”
“Lady Pang, you can’t kill us, we are the Elder Council, the pillars of the Alliance. For dozens of years, it has been us who have held the Alliance steady. Without us, the Alliance will descend into chaos.”
“Yes, Lady Pang, once we die, countless unruly individuals will take the stage.
Beyond District 1, openly lies the ‘Zero Organization.’
In the shadows, there’s the ‘Science Alliance’ of District 2, the ‘Holy Sect Alliance’ of District 3, and the Chaos Alliance of District 4, along with countless more power groups buried even deeper.
Without our suppression, these forces will erge.
They will fight against each other for benefits, for the terrifying power shown by the fragnt today.
Then, the situation we have painstakingly maintained will be broken, and the Alliance will fall into chaos.
Would you truly be indifferent to seeing the hard-won peace shattered?
Would you truly be indifferent to watching a happy and peaceful humanity being again destroyed by war and chaos?”
“For the sake of the Alliance, for the sake of countless humans, please stop!”
…
Standing opposite the Eleven Elders, Duddu watched with cold eyes as these eleven old n frantically perford and pleaded with her.
In fact, with Duddu’s current knowledge, she was able to make her own judgnts.
She clearly understood that not everything these eleven elders were saying was false.
Indeed, if they died, the Alliance would likely fall into chaos.
Their words could beco reality.
But what did any of this have to do with her?
Duddu glanced at Lu Wuyi ten miles away, who was still struggling persistently, trying hard to get closer, and muttered softly, “Wouldn’t it be better if things were a bit more chaotic?
With a bit more chaos, his future environnt might improve.”
Duddu’s words caused the faces of the Eleven Elders opposite her to change.
At the sa ti, it caused the fragnt behind her to suddenly dim.
The mont the fragnt faded, the force enveloping Elder Mountain vanished, and the fear that had gripped Lu Wu disappeared instantly.
Without the suppression, Lu Wu’s face lit up with joy, and he frantically headed towards Duddu’s location.
At the sa ti, things were moving with the Eleven Elders.
They too broke free from their constraints the mont the fragnt dimd.
These old foxes instantly realized that Duddu was having problems controlling the fragnt.
“Quick, while we can!”
“Take this chance!”
The eleven old n seized the opportunity to attack Duddu, hoping to take her down and seize the fragnt while she lost control of it.
The aura belonging to the Eleven Elders erupted once again.
This put Lu Wu, who was rushing in, under trendous pressure again, but compared to the previous suppressive force of the fragnt, this was sothing he could withstand; gritting his teeth, he continued to charge in.
At the sa ti, by Duddu’s side,
She didn’t seem surprised by the loss of control over the fragnt.
“So you really left a backdoor to take back control, huh? But I’m sorry, I was prepared as well,” she murmured softly.
In the midst of her whispers,
The dimd fragnt once again burst into a bright and dazzling light.
In an instant, the power of the fragnt was completely unleashed.
It was an indescribable force, as if the gods themselves reached directly into the world’s rules.
“Not good…”
“Quick…”
The Eleven Elders’ faces changed drastically, instinctively trying to retreat, but it was already too late.
That surge of power rippled down, and the Eleven Elders’ Summoned Beasts, including these eleven beings at the pinnacle of the world, disintegrated inch by inch, and in a blink, they were erased from this world.
Lu Wu, who had just barged in from outside, witnessed this scene.
He was stunned by this unbelievable sight, but the shock didn’t last long before his gaze shifted to Dudu beside him.
Seeing Dudu, Lu Wu finally let out a sigh of relief.
Although he still couldn’t see Dudu’s attributes, at least from the outside, from the spirit and vigor, Dudu seed to be doing fine.
A look at Dudu appeared to be fine.
The worry Lu Wu had been holding on to was imdiately let go, but his anger erupted uncontrollably.
He now wished he could pin this girl down and spank her until her butt was broken.
“Really too reckless…”
“Pfft!”
Just as Lu Wu started to voice his complaint, a tearing sound interrupted him.
In the midst of this tearing noise, a seductive spray of blood blossod at Dudu’s throat.
This scene occurred so abruptly, striking Lu Wu’s vision and psyche so forcefully that the world before his eyes seed to freeze instantly.
But reality did not stop because of Lu Wu’s shock.
At the sa ti that Lu Wu was frozen by the scene before him, an extrely dazzling golden thunderbolt, a suprely oppressive dark longsword, and a fist radiating with extre golden light smashed into Dudu’s body.
The instant burst of three attacks blew Dudu apart right before Lu Wu’s eyes.
And the three who struck were none other than Fei Yinghao, Zhang Mingge, and Zhao Xue’en of the Elder Council, who had seemingly completely disintegrated monts ago.
These people, who should have been dead, not only survived but also managed to counterattack and kill Dudu.
This was, in a way, expected.
After all, each of the eleven had lived from the previous era, suppressing the entire era for over a hundred years.
Each one was cunning and profound beyond asure—how could they be so easily killed off completely?
Dudu’s recent attack had only killed about half of them; the remaining were gravely weakened but alive.
Of course, at this mont, Lu Wu didn’t care to ponder why they were alive.
Or rather, from the mont Dudu died before him, Lu Wu had already lost the ability to think.
Boundless rage and killing intent took control of Lu Wu.
He instinctively drew the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword and slashed towards the few old n, reerging with injuries all over, facing him.
The boundless rage allowed Lu Wu to unleash an unprecedented strike.
Elder Mountain beca instantly covered with dark clouds, and a force as indescribable and seemingly like Divine Punishnt descended.
Divine Judgnt struck down on those old n before Lu Wu.
However, at this mont, their attention was entirely on the fragnt left by Dudu, completely disregarding Lu Wu.
And nobody cared about Lu Wu’s attack.
Under their total disregard, Lu Wu’s “Divine Judgnt” crashed down on them.
The result.
That group of old n, who looked as if they were all out of oil and on the verge of death, managed to withstand Lu Wu’s attack rely by relying on their passives.
This scene made Lu Wu realize for the first ti how weak he was.
“Power!”
“I need power!”
Lu Wu desperately sought to trigger the ultimate “Beast Soul Burst” to gain strength.
But at that mont, on Dudu’s end.
A drop of blood from her shattered body dripped onto that fragnt.
The next instant, the fragnt that had already unleashed a burst of power erupted again.
The faces of the Eleven Elders changed instantly.
“What’s going on?”
“Didn’t she die?”
…
The remaining elders subconsciously burst out with various Skills to fend off the forces re-erging from the Fragnt.
At this mont, Lu Wu’s eyes were blood-red; he didn’t care about any resistance and directly activated the Senluo Wanxiang Domain.
“Boom”
As Lu Wu’s Senluo Wanxiang Domain opened, an unimaginable torrent rushed into Lu Wu’s brain.
Lu Wu only held on for a few seconds before being overwheld and knocked unconscious by the torrent.
Almost at the mont Lu Wu passed out, a person appeared out of nowhere and grabbed him.
Taking advantage of the elders’ distraction with resisting the Fragnt, he disappeared with Lu Wu.
Not long after this person vanished, the erupting Fragnt also disappeared.
With the Fragnt gone and the explosion over, the remaining elders had narrowly escaped disaster, but their complexions were extrely unsightly.
“It’s gone? How did it disappear?”
“Lu Wu is gone too!”
“Who rescued Lu Wu? And what’s the connection between the person who saved Lu Wu and the Fragnt?”
“Wait!”
At this mont, a na simultaneously surfaced in the minds of the remaining old n.
Lin Jianying!
“Is it him? Did he save the person and retrieve the Fragnt?”
“So far, that seems to be the only explanation!”
Realizing this, the elders’ expressions grew very ugly.
“What’s going on here?
First, a Pang Duddu suddenly went mad, charged to Elder Mountain with the Fragnt, and killed half of us.
We finally got rid of Pang Duddu, and now Lin Jianying shows up? And he even took the Fragnt?
Does this an that what happened today might happen again?
Can we old bones survive another ordeal like this?”
“No, we must capture Lin Jianying and Lu Wu; we must retrieve that Fragnt!
Chase them, they can’t have gotten far!”
The remaining ones, clearly frightened by the previous explosion of the Fragnt, and focused entirely on it, were about to move.
At this mont, Zhao Xue’en had deeper concerns: “It’s not just about Lin Jianying and the Fragnt anymore.
Pang Duddu was clearly being used.
Her role was to deal a heavy blow to us, and now she has done it.
After her rampage, our group is dead or injured, and Chairman Li is not here; Elder Mountain is now at its weakest in history. If soone were to strike at us now…”
Zhao Xue’en spoke up, and the remaining elders shivered all over.
The chase they had prepared was forcibly halted.
Everyone withdrew into Elder Mountain.
That battered Elder Mountain activated its highest security alert.
This scene was witnessed by those watching in the shadows, including Zhang Yunyi.
She looked in the direction of Elder Mountain with a slight smile on her lips.
“Well done, it’s ti for to go back and check on that girl.”
As she spoke, Zhang Yunyi’s figure disappeared in a flash.
The next mont, Zhang Yunyi’s silhouette appeared inside a secret base in Jiangbei.
Deep within the base was a massive Crystal Coffin with a chubby girl inside.
Almost the instant Zhang Yunyi appeared, the girl in the Crystal Coffin opened her blurry eyes…
