Chronicles Of The Shura Clan

Upon hearing the indifferent and contemptuous voice of Ling Chen, the sect master including the rest of the elders that were lost in thought and trying to figure out what just happened suddenly jolted awake from their thought.

Though they were amazed and frightened by Ling Chen's display of power, they were also ashamed and angry.

They couldn't believe that Ling Chen had the gut to kill an elder of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect right in front of the sect master and them.

What made them even angrier was the fact that this bastard was still ignoring them and was focused on talking to Elder Zhuo as though they didn't exist.

How could they not go crazy?

Swoosh!

Suddenly, a more terrifying murderous intent swept through the entire inner sect region as if the God of Murder had arrived.

"Calm down people. Don't forget we still need him."

At this moment, a calm voice filled the sky, and the towering killing intent that was emitted by the eighteen elders suddenly vanished.

"So you are the Legendary little Devil that I've long heard about. It's a pleasure to finally meet you in person."

"Thank you old man, and who are you again?." Asked Ling Chen as he was looking at the old man in front of him that was able to calm down the eighteen elders with just a single sentence.

"Me, I am Jian Lei, the sect master of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect." Answered the old man with an amiable smile on his face. It was as if Ling Chen wasn't his enemy but a junior from the sect.

From the beginning to the end, Ling Chen had already known who that old man was because of his strength as well as how the others behaved around him.

Also, though Lin Chen referred to him as an old man, Jian Lei didn't look that old. He looked as though he was in his fifties and sixties. However, this wasn't his real age.

Even a two hundred years old Martial Emperor realm warrior would look as though he was in his fifties, as such, it wasn't difficult for a peak Martial Venerable like the sect master of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect, that was only a step away from the breaking through the Martial Saint realm and had around a thousand years of life span to look young even though he was very old.

"So, you are the Sect Master of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect. Sorry for my rude behavior, I didn't recognize you." Politely answered Ling Chen as well.

Ling Chen had a straight-forward and strange personality or disposition. If a person addressed him politely or in a civilized manner, he would reciprocate even though that person was his enemy.

However, if a person threatened him and talked badly to him, he would most likely kill that person without batting an eye.

At this moment, he smilingly stared at Jian Lei as he said in a cold icy tone. " I am pretty sure you know why I am here. So, let's cut to the chase. Are you guys going to hand over my friends willingly or am I gonna have to slaughter you all to get what I came for."

However, instead of getting mad because of Ling Chen's threat, a pleasant and ringing laughter came from Jian Lei.

"I have to admit, you've indeed proven your strength being able to kill Elder Jia right under our noses. You must feel like you are invincible because of that."

"Don't let it go through your head youngster. As you haven't understood your current situation yet, I guess it's up to this old man to open your eyes."

"Activate the Birdcage formations and prepare for battle!" Shouted Jian Lei.

In the next moment, with a series of booming explosions, lights flashed among the peaks of the inner sect region. The dazzling radiance shot up and strings of tangible rays of true qi cut through the sky as they formed a huge cage that instantly encased the entire inner sect region which trapped both Ling Chen and the elders within.

This was the ultimate formation of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect. It relied on the spirit vein energy to create an energy cage to trap their enemies. It's unbreakable and impenetrable.

Furthermore, with its power, they would able to control all the True Qi energy within the inner sect region at their whim, preventing their enemies to release their domain or used the surrounding True Qi energy.

Within that formation, any martial venerable realm warrior would be like a tiger without its fangs and claws.

"Hahaha!, now little brat, I'm pretty sure you know what we want. Are you going to hand over the Devouring Battle Technique willingly or are we gonna have to beat it out of you?." With the protection of the formation, Jian Lei sneered with complete confidence as if victory was a foregone conclusion.

He even made fun of Ling Chen by giving him the same ultimatum he gave them earlier. Although his words were unpleasant, they were backed by logic.

Upon hearing Jian Lei's demand, Ling Chen didn't seem to be surprised. He was well aware that he was the most wanted man throughout the Heaven Desolate Region because of his devouring ability.

Looking at the birdcage formation, Ling Chen could tell they were going all out to capture him. They didn't only summon a powerful formation to trap him inside, they even used their sect's spirit vein to support it and strengthen it.

A spirit vein was like the most important possession of a great sect. Some could even say that it was more important than Battle Techniques or other items a sect needed to function.

But right now, the sect master didn't mind draining it to suppress him. What a grand and scary showing.

The elders' expenditure this time was more than enough to show their determination.

Nevertheless, capturing Ling Chen and obtaining the Devouring Battle Technique was still worth it for the Sect even if they had to drain the entire spirit vein!

However, Ling Chen was not anxious at all in this situation; it was as if he was enjoying himself. He smilingly said: "To achieve your goal, you guys are really going all out this time."

This was indeed the case. A spirit vein was priceless and would be gone forever after it was drained.

"Not a bad plan. Unfortunately, you guys made a grave mistake, my power does not come from the True Qi energy of this Heaven and Earth. As such, you can't suppress me with this formation."

His cold eyes shot out an endless murderous glint as he deepened his tone. " Also, I don't have time to bicker with you. After today, the Supreme Sword Dao Sect will be no more!"

Boom!

With that, his body suddenly exuded an unimaginable level of dark energy that blot out the sky in the blink of an eye.

The dark energy rushed to the sky as Ling Chen's terrifying aura engulfed the entire region. It was as if the God of Death has descended upon the mortal world from purgatory.
