Chapter 963: Chapter 983: Do You Think You’re Sure to Win?_1

How did he manage to escape from so many wraiths?

He also smoothly went through the passage and came to this underground space, how did he escape from those Undead Guards?

Is it possible that he was just that lucky, and there were no Undead Guards in the passage he chose?

An Ziwu recalls that Lin Chen looked back before falling into the Undead Horde, as if their eyes met. Did he recognize me?

An Ziwu wasn’t particularly afraid; after all, Lin Chen was alone, with the Pengmen Four Sects and the Cave Master present. Even if Lin Chen had any intentions, what could he do?

As a mere Nascent Soul, could he really be a threat to me?

No matter what he says, as long as I don’t admit it, it’ll be fine.

With no evidence, and you can’t beat me, this loss is your own!

The four Immortal Slaves glanced at Lin Chen, and then refocused their attention in front.

Just a singled-out kid after all, not worth their notice!

On the other hand, the crowd ahead, with so many Experts, today it might be tough.

Kunlun Mountain Cave Master Tang Fengkong said solemnly, "Gentlemen, when we entered this place, it was only to find the secrets of the Valley of Death and related information about the Connecting Heaven Formation. We have no intention to fight you all to the death."

"Everyone here was a genius ten thousand years ago, essentially our seniors. We’re all part of the Human Clan, why can’t we negotiate?"

Yan Chusheng gripped his Black War Blade tightly and said solemnly, "We are entrusted with guarding this place. If you break the Array Formation and take away the guarded objects, it would be our dereliction of duty. We would be killed. So, no matter what you say, we won’t step aside."

Ji Ruxue sneered, "What, do you think that by coming up here you’ve already won?"

West Xuan Mountain Cave Master shouted, "The four of you have already been severely injured, and can hardly fight again. Do you really think that a few Undead Guards can block us?"

Ji Ruxue sneered, "Just a few? Do you think there are only this many in the entire underground? We let you in because we wanted to trap you all!"

The expressions of everyone present changed slightly.

Luofu Mountain Supreme Elder asked, "Under whose order are you guarding this place?"

The white-haired old man smirked, "Of course, it’s by the order of an Immortal. Who else in this world can command us?"

An Immortal!

Cangshan Cave Heaven Supreme Elder said solemnly, "You have been guarding this place for ten thousand years, but the passage between the Barren Wilderness and the Immortal Realm has been severed. What are you aiming for?"

"What are we aiming for? Naturally, we seek to ascend to immortality!"

Yan Chusheng coldly said, "You barged in here recklessly, aren’t you also seeking to become Immortal? Our goals are the same, just that the methods differ."

Tang Fengkong asked, "You’ve lived for ten thousand years, with such formidable strength, can’t you be considered Immortals?"

A flash of embarrassment appeared on Yan Chusheng’s face.

Are they considered Immortals?

Yes!

Are they Immortals?

No!

They are just Immortal Slaves!

With eternal half-immortal lives but still far from actual Immortals, they have the lifespan of Immortals but lack their mighty power.

If they were true Immortals, they wouldn’t have had to fight so embarrassingly!

The white-haired old man’s face seemed much thicker, as he coldly said, "If it wasn’t for the sake of becoming Immortals, how could we live for ten thousand years?"

Tang Fengkong asked, "Who is the Immortal person that gave you orders? He shouldn’t be in the Barren Wilderness, right? Are you trying to say that the purpose of your ascension is simply to guard this place?"

The white-haired old man replied, "This is the price of exchange. When the time comes, we will naturally ascend to the Immortal Realm. If we stayed here forever, what kind of Immortals would we be?"

By this point, everyone had a general understanding of the current situation.

It was true that these four people had encountered an Immortal. They may have even become Immortals already. However, the person currently commanding them was much stronger than them. So, even if they had become Immortals, they still had to accept the fate of being ten-thousand-year guards here.

This was the price.

Chicheng Mountain Cave Heaven Supreme Elder asked, "Whose arm is that?"

Ji Ruxue coldly replied, "This is not something you need to worry about. What you should be worried about now is your own lives..."

The Black Jiao beside roared, "Why waste time talking to them? Summon the Undead Guards, kill them! Those who trespass into the Forbidden Land must die!"

The white-haired old man turned, his palm pressed onto the Sacrificial Altar. Suddenly, intense fluctuations of blood energy rose from the altar.

As the Blood Light fluctuated, loud rumbling noises of giant creatures running could be heard from the numerous large and small passages.

Everyone’s faces had drastically changed. They had originally thought that most of the Undead Guards encountered earlier had been almost wiped out, leaving only a few guarding the sacrificial altar. However, now it seemed that they were gravely mistaken!

Their group had fought hard all the way just to eliminate the Undead Guards of this one passage!

There were countless passages here, each with Undead Guards. When all the Undead Guards were added together, the number would be a terrifying figure!
