The epic battle was unbelievably fierce, shaking the entire void, with space constantly cracking open with fissures.
Ji Chen has been solely defensive, never taking the initiative to attack.
No matter how fierce the opponent’s assault was, as it approached him, its power would be infinitely weakened.
By now, everyone had noticed sothing.
Although Ji Chen was able to easily dissolve the opponent’s attacks, because his cultivation was only at the Sixth Layer of the Celestial Essence Realm, his attacks were also hard to pose a threat to the senior of the Wu Family.
These techniques and attacks could at most threaten ordinary people at the Second or Third Layer of the Void Realm, but against a Dao Body manifested by a Saint, they were entirely inadequate.
He attempted to close the distance and engage in close combat, for only the power of the Hongng Body could threaten the opponent.
But getting close to a Saint was far more difficult than imagined.
Ji Chen tried several tis but was forced back by the Wu Family elder’s Holy Technique.
As a result, the battle seed evenly matched, with both sides at a stalemate and the outco unpredictable.
"Buzz..."
Another Holy Sword Aura slashed down noisily, as if dragging the montum of the entire world, with the Power of Heaven Creation, pressing down on Ji Chen.
He used the Starry Sky Law to protect himself, and charged upward, weakening the opponent’s attack while clenching his fist tightly, punching angrily.
"Have you noticed? Wu Family elder’s attacks... seem to be much weaker than at the beginning." Soone suddenly spoke up.
Soone nodded, a white-robed old man said, "After all, it’s a Dao Body of a Saint, not the actual body, every attack consus a trendous amount of energy, didn’t you notice? The Wu Family elder’s body has beco much more ethereal and fragile, it seems the energy of this Dao Body is about to be exhausted."
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but show surprise on their faces.
The Hongng Body is truly abnormal, fighting non-stop, it’s actually going to exhaust a Saint to death here.
This outco really took everyone by surprise.
"Enough, enough..."
Finally, after another half an hour of fighting, a sigh was heard from the void above.
The Wu Family elder withdrew his hand, the ethereal figure faded to the extre, the massive consumption of energy nearly unable to maintain the existence of this Dao Body.
"My true body is still in seclusion and this body cannot capture you, let’s end it here today."
He continued to speak, sounding noticeably older, his gaze fixed on Ji Chen, he said again, "The Saint Tier physical body truly is extraordinary, our Wu Family does not wish to be your enemy, let’s resolve this enmity today with five hundred million Spirit Stones."
"Old Ancestor..."
Upon hearing these words, all the mbers of the Wu Family present looked distressed, as if they had swallowed a heap of flies.
Who could have thought that even with a Saint present, the Wu Family would still need to pay five hundred million Spirit Stones as ransom to Ji Chen.
Five hundred million Spirit Stones might not an much to an imperial race from the Outer Realm.
But primarily, it was a matter of face, making them feel sowhat embarrassed.
In the end, witnessed by many, an elder of the Wu Family reluctantly approached Ji Chen and handed over a storage bag containing five hundred million Spirit Stones.
After confirming the amount, Ji Chen nodded and said, "Why couldn’t it have been like this earlier?"
"Buzz!"
With that, he waved his large hand, and a beam of light flashed, appearing in front of the Lingyun Sect’s mountain gate.
It was a young man in embroidered clothes nad Wu Tianyi, looking disheveled, with ssy hair, as if he had suffered a lot of tornt.
In the mont he was released by Ji Chen, his eyes showed a hint of confusion, unable to process what had happened.
Upon seeing Ji Chen, Wu Tianyi imdiately forced a smile, looking sowhat obsequious, clasped his fist and cautiously asked, "Brother Ji, will we be testing dicine today?"
"Testing dicine?"
Upon hearing this, everyone around couldn’t help but be stumped, and then they fell silent.
For now, many knew that Ji Chen was also an Alchemist.
From Wu Tianyi’s implication, during his captivity, he was used as a test subject for dicinal elixirs?
This was truly too miserable, wasn’t it?
After all, Wu Tianyi was a genius of an imperial race, a Young Master Level pride, yet suffered such inhumane treatnt within the Lingyun Sect.
"Tianyi!"
The chief elder of the Wu Family let out a dreary face, giving a reminder.
Only then did Wu Tianyi react, glancing around and quickly understanding what had happened.
The expression on his face instantly turned into anger, and he cried out to the Wu Family Saint in mid-air, "Grandfather, you finally ca to rescue , quickly capture this reckless Ji Chen and bring him back to the Wu Family, I must make him suffer greatly!"
He seed to have an endless grievance, bursting out completely at this mont.
During his captivity, Ji Chen would occasionally bring out so strange elixirs for him and a dozen others to try, torturing them terribly, and now seeing Ji Chen ’summon’ him out, Wu Tianyi thought Ji Chen was once again planning to make him a test subject for so new elixir.
"Cough, cough..."
The elder of the Wu Family stood in mid-air, his body already so ethereal it was about to disappear, he coughed to relieve so awkwardness, then looked at Wu Tianyi, scoldingly saying, "Don’t disgrace us here, follow back to the Wu Family quickly."
"Buzz!"
With that, he waved his large hand, a gust of wind arose, and took Wu Tianyi away imdiately.
"Hidden Dragon Sacred Land, Qing Ling Sacred Land, and other imperial races, do you also need to ransom your people?"
After the Wu Family people left, Ji Chen stood in front of the Lingyun Sect’s mountain gate, his gaze sweeping across the distant powerful figures of various forces, asking.
Everyone exchanged glances, seeming to want to say sothing, but eventually could only sigh.
A Dao Body of a Saint had manifested here and fought with Ji Chen, nearly being exhausted to death, showing everyone that if they clashed with Ji Chen today, they might not benefit, especially since he also had a Saint King behind him.
Instead of continuing to persist like this, it would be better just to pay Spirit Stones for ransom and end it.
And just as Ji Chen had said, compared to the safety of a Saint Child Level genius, a re five or ten billion Spirit Stones was nothing at all.
"Here are ten billion Spirit Stones, please release the person imdiately, young friend."
The first to reach Ji Chen was an old woman from Qing Ling Sacred Land, who used a dragon-headed cane and tossed a storage bag.
"As expected of Qing Ling Sacred Land, truly wealthy and generous."
After Ji Chen quickly confird the amount, he waved his sleeve and released Saintess Qing Ling.
