Chapter 5339 Seven Treasure Space
The moment Tang-Wan-er saw Enpuda[1], he vanished. In an instant, her instincts flared, and she unleashed thousands of sword images behind her.
In the blink of an eye, her sword met Enpudas dagger over a hundred times, and the sound of metal clashing filled the air.
BOOM!
Tang Wan-ers defenses were air-tight, blocking Enpudas relentless assault.
Winds Peak! Tang Wan-er shouted, preparing a powerful attack to kill Enpuda.
But just then, a massive hand descended from the dark sky, instantly suppressing all her wind energy. She was horrifiedit felt as if her cultivation base had been stripped away.
An explosive sound rang out as Tang Wan-er was simply crushed by this hand.
Suddenly, the scene around her vanished. Tang Wan-er opened her eyes to find herself back where she had been, with the other disciples standing in place. All of them were pale with fright though.
They had been wiped out, and the sensation of their bodies being torn apart was painfully real. They were shaking at how life-like it had been.
Some still didnt understand what had happened. Xiao Yue had heard Tang Wan-ers cry right before her death, but she only felt a sharp pain on her neck before everything descended into darkness.
What just happened? Xiao Yue asked fearfully, looking at Tang Wan-er in disbelief. Even someone as strong as Tang Wan-er had fallen so quicklyhad she died too?
Tang Wan-er looked at Long Chen in shock, not understanding what had transpired.
Long Chen said, The Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree brought all of you into my inner world. The monsters and people you saw there were all killed by me. Their powerful resentment created karmic ties to me. The Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree is truly a treasure. It has always helped me comprehend the Dao and block these karmas. Then, one day, I had an ideawhat if I used those karmas to form a training ground?
So, with the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Trees help, I constructed that world. In that world, you will encounter all the enemies I slew. Some of them were bodies of flesh and blood, while others were karmas left behind by heavenly tribulation. Wan-er, the hand that killed you was called the Hand of the Heavens. With your strength, you could have survived it, but it suppressed all laws. It weakened your wind energy, causing fear to take root in your heart. That fear created an opening, and your will wasnt firm enough, so you were crushed.
Long Chens explanation stunned everyone further. All those terrifying creatures were his past foes?
After hearing this, Tang Wan-er realized why she had seen figures like Gui Yan and even Enpuda.
Again! she demanded, taking a deep breath as the other disciples steeled themselves, determination burning in their eyes.
They were very brave. Despite the fear of death, they readied themselves for another attempt.
The Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree quivered, and once again, they were transported to that hellish world. But once more, aside from Tang Wan-er, everyone was killed instantly.
In front of a tide of endless devil creatures and terrifying experts, they didnt have the slightest ability to resist. They were instantly slain without having any chance to fight back.
This was a huge blow to them. In truth, anything capable of binding itself to Long Chen through karma had to be incredibly strong. These creatures resentment at the time of their deaths had been so great that the Heavenly Daos had captured their karmic ties. The weaker ones werent even qualified to appear.
All of these beings were fierce and ominous, far beyond the strength of ordinary foes. As a result, this group of women, who had never truly experienced the harsh trials of the battlefield, stood no chance against them.
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, Tang Wan-er opened her eyes, sweating profusely.
That person was Qin Keqing, a heavenly genius of the Zither Sect. She was sinister and treacherous. She used the sound of the zither to disturb her opponents heart and took advantage of that opening to launch a killing blow. Alone, she wouldnt have been a threat, but in a group battle, if you fail to balance your enemies’ attack rhythms, youll be at a serious disadvantage, said Long Chen.
Again! Tang Wan-er demanded, unwilling to admit defeat.
Long Chen glanced around. Though looking pale, the others were equally determined to keep fighting. Despite their exhaustion, they were ready to have a go again.
Nodding, Long Chen activated the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree again, sending them into that illusory world. Once more, aside from Tang Wan-er, everyone was instantly killed.
This time, all of them grew anxious and antsy. They felt powerless, so powerless that there was no hope for them.
Dont panic, Long Chen comforted. You must be prepared for death in this world. When you can face it without fear, youll be able to make the right decisions in the heat of battle. That decision might not change the outcome, but the mindset is crucial. To be honest, I didnt expect you to have the courage to return after the first attempt. Under the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Trees power, everything feels so real, and you cant tell illusion from reality when you die. But youve challenged this illusory world three times already. Thats very impressive.
Long Chens praise made them feel a bit better, so they gritted their teeth and prepared to challenge this illusory world again.
Your minds are too strained. Its not the right state to continue, Long Chen said, waving his hand and sending golden pills to each of them. Take this soul-calming pill and rest.
This is... a top-grade golden pill? Startled cries came from those who recognized this pill.
After all, only divine sons and daughters received such pills, and that was only once a year. For Long Chen to casually hand out over three thousand left them awestruck. They hesitated to take the pills.
At this time, Tang Wan-er came out of the illusory world. Looking at the pills floating in front of everyone, she smiled wearily and said, Dont be shy. With him around, well never run out of pills. Shouldnt you thank big brother Long Chen?
Thank you, big brother Long Chen! the disciples chorused.
Although being called big brother by so many women at once gave Long Chen an awkward chill. He quickly had them consume the pills.
As they recovered, Long Chen observed the wind fluctuations swirling around them, impressed by how rapidly they were improving.
It seems that I underestimated them, he mused. Their potential is amazing. The Hidden Dragon Legion might truly become something special.
An hour later, fully recovered, the disciples’ eyes gleamed with newfound confidence and sharpness.
Continue! Long Chen commanded as the Seven Treasure Colored Glass Tree quivered, once again drawing them into the illusory world.
