Chapter 796: Chapter 796: Sealed Off, Even Lu Chen Can’t!

The spiritual light above the forbidden area had yet to disperse when another radiance lit up.

Lu Chen’s pupils constricted as he clearly felt the difference between the two lights.

Within the abyss, there were not only ancient monsters but also other cultivators!

There was even the possibility that Nascent Soul cultivators from the Eastern Domain who had never been discovered were present!

According to the information currently known, the majority of the ancient monsters had gone to besiege the sects of the Eastern Domain.

Aside from the Haotian Sect which had been destroyed, the other three top-tier sects – the Spirit Sound Sect, Guiyuan Sect, and Haoran Sect – had all enforced lockdowns and sealed their mountains!

Lu Chen was unaware of the exact locations of these three sects, nor did he know what their situations were.

Under such circumstances, he had reason to suspect that the Nascent Soul cultivators from these three sects couldn’t resist searching for the passageway to the Spirit World!

"Even I can’t enter, so the ancient monsters and the rest of the Nascent Soul cultivators might not necessarily be able to either!"

Lu Chen calmed his thoughts and looked in the direction of the commotion, listening carefully for a while, and indeed sensed the disturbance caused by an Imperial Command Spell.

"Are there ancient monsters and Nascent Soul cultivators who have also discovered the passage to the Spirit World?"

Lu Chen took a deep breath.

With his earlier conjecture, he temporarily had no intention of going to the Spirit World. What worried him more were the other people deep within the forbidden area!

"Forcing my way through is not an option, I can only wait a little longer for the prohibition to dissipate before proceeding!"

Lu Chen calmed down, remembering that previously the ancient monsters and Nascent Soul cultivators had treated him as a common enemy and if it weren’t for the talismans, he might have had difficulty surviving.

Not only that, but the recent attacks on the prohibition had also consumed a considerable amount of Spiritual Power, which he needed to slowly restore.

"I’ll head back to One Line Sky first!"

It was clear that the disturbances caused by the ancient monsters and Nascent Soul cultivators would ultimately converge toward the same goal. Meeting them at that time would obviously be disadvantageous for him.

Only One Line Sky was the best place to hide at the moment.

Even if they discovered One Line Sky, the narrow passage was not something they could simply enter as they wished!

Having made up his mind, Lu Chen quickly made his way toward One Line Sky.

With the situation unclear, the best strategy was to ensure his own safety first!

He cast a deep glance towards the depths of the abyss before decisively turning away.

The prohibitions flashed with spiritual light from time to time, along with the roars of monsters and the ongoing disturbance from the cultivators, but Lu Chen remained unmoved.

His calmness had become habitual.

Soon, he returned to One Line Sky.

"Brother Lu, inside the abyss..."

The appearance of the passage to the Spirit World, the preceding fight involving Lu Chen, or the activities of Xuan Tong and others in unlocking the Mystic Cloud Chains caused great tumult with an astonishing momentum, so naturally, those inside One Line Sky heard it all clearly.

"The situation is not good; the prohibitions in the depths have closed again. I need to stay here and wait for the next opening of the prohibition!"

Lu Chen didn’t conceal the truth.

Although Li Yanran was at the Core Formation Stage, in the context of the abyss, there was still a vast gap in strength to do anything.

"Then..."

Li Yanran hesitated to speak.

"I’ve encountered them, it’s not a big problem. For now, you all should stay here and focus on your cultivation," Lu Chen said as he glanced over the three of them and the Xuanming Ice Snake sleeping soundly in another corner, before withdrawing his gaze.

He also needed to cultivate.

The free time was a good opportunity to give them some guidance.

It might not be ultimately useful, but it could save them many detours.

Whether it was Li Yanran, Mo Buwen, or Yu Qingqing!

"Brother Lu, why don’t you bring them back then?"

Li Yanran was still unaware of the severity inside.

"I want to bring them back, but I can’t manage to do so. This prohibition, even I can’t enter," Lu Chen said with a wry smile as he walked towards the cabin. His Spiritual Power was significantly drained, he needed to recover.

After recuperating, he would discuss the next plan with them.

But after taking only a few steps, something else occurred to him. He took out a few talismans from his ring and handed them to Li Yanran.

"Take a look, can you use these talismans?"

"Talismans?"

Li Yanran was surprised.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "These talismans are equivalent to a strike from a Nascent Soul Stage! You’re at the Core Formation Stage, so their power might be affected, but in case of danger when I’m in the middle of cultivation, they might come in handy!"

"Yes, Brother Lu!"

Li Yanran, being intelligent, understood that the talismans were for the defense of the valley.

Without any politeness, she took them.

Lu Chen smiled and entered the cabin. Once seated, he began to furiously cultivate the Heaven-Breaking Spiritual Method!

His realm still wasn’t enough!

Li Yanran summoned Mo Buwen and Yu Qingqing and relayed Lu Chen’s words to them.

But before she finished, a disturbance suddenly arose from outside One Line Sky!

Li Yanran’s heart alarmed, she quickly grabbed a talisman in her hand, and ran over!

Hiding near the exit, she projected her Spiritual Sense.

Suddenly, her expression drastically changed!
