Chapter 2034: Chapter 2054: The Immortal’s Self-Destruct Attack_1

Although Lin Chen was mocking Nangong Night verbally, he was closely monitoring the status of the Barrier.

He had never experienced fighting against a Daluo Venerable even in the Immortal Palace before.

Fortunately, even though over a hundred immortals were attacking fiercely, the Barrier of the Immortal Palace was extraordinarily solid. It was obviously shaking, but it did not show signs of shattering.

This reassured Lin Chen greatly, so he continued to mock Nangong Night verbally.

Nangong Night clenched his teeth, his face dark with anger.

He was originally high and mighty, who dared to speak to him in such a manner?

If the one mocking him was of the same or higher realm, he would have let it pass. But Lin Chen was not even a Daluo. He was someone whom Nangong Night himself could slap to death. Yet, this man was provoking him over and over again right in his face, and what’s infuriating was that Nangong Night could not do anything about it.

Nangong Night watched silently for a while and found that relying solely on the more than a hundred immortals he had captured to attack, breaking the Barrier seemed to be hopeless.

Lin Chen was still mocking, "Hey, it seems like the situation is almost ripe for action, Nangong Night. What are you going to do? I really daren’t go out, and you can’t get in either. Shall we just stalemate like this, or perhaps, you would like to go catch some more people?"

Nangong Night looked up, his eyes full of fierce light. "Do you think I’m helpless?"

Lin Chen chuckled, "Is that so? Then, I’m excited to see what you’re going to do."

Nangong Night’s eyes fell on the group of immortals who were attacking forcefully. He said coldly, "Stop!"

All the immortals stopped their attack at once, looking up at Nangong Night, their eyes full of unease.

Nangong Night unleashed his Domain Force, enveloping all the immortals.

"The ones with numbers before one hundred retreat ten miles away, those with numbers after one hundred stay back!"

The crowd was unsure of what he intended to do, but they dared not defy him. The attacking immortals withdrew a hundred of their number, leaving around twenty who wore a look of cluelessness and fear on their faces. Their intuition told them that something bad was about to happen.

Nangong Night’s gaze fell upon the remaining twenty or so immortals, his eyes cold, "All of you, self-detonate and blast open the Barrier!"

The faces of everyone present turned ashen.

Self-detonate?

Wouldn’t they be doomed then?

Everybody became silent, protesting without uttering a sound.

Nangong Night spoke coldly, "Those who self-detonate, your families and friends will be unharmed. Those who don’t, I will personally send you to your death, and let you experience the pain of being burned alive inch by inch!"

Inside the Barrier, Lin Chen frowned, "Nangong Night, you, as a Daluo Venerable of the second realm, shouldn’t stoop so low and resort to such a shameless method?"

Nangong Night’s handsome face was filled with extreme coldness, "You forced me into it. If you sympathize with them, then open up the Barrier!"

Of course, Lin Chen would not open the Barrier. Although he sympathized with these captured saints, he also had his own people to protect.

Would he risk his close ones’ lives for the lives of unrelated people?

He was once the Human Emperor, commanding a mighty army against the demon race. He was already accustomed to death.

In a war, who didn’t die?

This was not a battle between two sects, but a war between two Immortal Domains, concerning the future of countless living beings.

Lin Chen’s face also turned serious and stopped jesting. He watched in silence.

In the crowd, an immortal who obviously did not wish to self-detonate turned into golden light and tried to flee outwards like lightning.

Nangong Night sneered. Suddenly, boundless blaze appeared in the sky in front of him, and in an instant, it enveloped the fleeing immortal.

The immortal screamed as his whole body caught fire, and then he was pulled back by an invisible force, and landed right in front of everyone.

The immortal was completely covered in Daluo’s fire, his body twisting and screaming in the flames. Yet, he was suppressed by Nangong Night and had no strength to resist. His entire body was burned bit by bit, and he died in the fire. The level of agony was so severe that it turned everyone pale.

Nangong Night waved his hand, and the sky full of flames disappeared, along with the immortals who were escaping just now.

He turned his head and asked, "Who is he?"

A Sky Horse Knight brought out a jade slip: "Number 115, Five Elements Sect, Zhao Tianyu, Mid-Tianxian Stage..."

Nangong Night interrupted the Sky Horse Knight’s answer, "Is there anyone else here from the Five Elements Sect?"

The Sky Horse Knight shook his head: "No more, the Five Elements Sect is just a small sect."

Nangong Night nodded: "Note it down, Five Elements Sect, the entire sect is to be extinguished!"

"Yes!"

The many immortals watching this scene all felt a chill in their hearts, the epitome of despair.

Escape?

There is only one path to death. Not only do I have to endure the pain of being burnt by the wild fire, but my death will not be enough, and will also implicate my sect.

This madman, one person escaped, and he destroyed the entire sect!

The gazes of despair from the immortals were cast on Lin Chen, begging him to help.

"Open the Barrier!"

"Is the Immortal Palace going to watch us die?"

"We are also being coerced, Immortal Palace, please save us!"

"Lin Chen, the Barrier will break sooner or later, why compromise our lives..."

The expression on Lin Chen’s face became even colder, but he remained silent, just staring icily.

Nangong Night watched this scene and sneered: "Looks like you’re not much better, watching them go to their deaths without a care, cold-blooded, ruthless!"

Lin Chen glanced at Nangong Night, and said serenely: "War, I’ve experienced no less than you have, these tricks of yours have all been overused by others, so stop showing them off!"

After a pause, Lin Chen’s gaze fell on those begging immortals, and he coldly said: "The Immortal Palace had already dispatched people to notify all sects to avoid the storm and escape the enemy’s clutches. You all harbored illusions and didn’t listen to the Immortal Palace’s orders, unwilling to move. Now you’re in the enemy’s hands. Instead of charging at the enemy, you come begging the Immortal Palace. Is it the Immortal Palace that hurt you? What contributions have you made to the Immortal Palace? Is it the duty of the Immortal Palace to protect you?"

Once these words were spoken, the many immortals were suddenly silenced, faces full of shame and regret.

Yes, the Immortal Palace had sent people to notify all the nearby sects along the route, instructing all sects to evacuate their premises to avoid being captured by Nangong Night. Yet their sect had harbored an unrealistic hope, not heeding the orders, always thinking that their sect was not big, and its location was remote, thus it shouldn’t be targeted by Nangong Night. The tragedy was inevitable.

Who’s to blame?

Blame ourselves!

Even a slight movement, letting all the disciples of the entire sect hide in a secluded corner for a few months, could have avoided this disaster. But due to a moment’s hesitation, they were caught by Nangong Night, and the entire sect fell into a catastrophe.

Can the Immortal Palace be blamed?

Nangong Night sneered: "Since you do not cherish their lives, then let me try. How many people need to self-destruct before your Immortal Palace’s doors can be opened? If twenty people do not work, I shall use fifty. If fifty do not work, I’ll use a hundred. If there are not enough people this time, I will capture more. The next time, I will come again. I wonder how long your Barrier can hold?"

"All of you, obey my command, self-destruct together, attack the Barrier. If you self-destruct, I will spare your sects. Anyone who disobeys my command, I will exterminate his entire sect!"

Nangong Night stared at everyone fiercely with murderous intent. All the immortals looked desperate, they wanted to resist but were utterly powerless. They could only accept the outcome of self-destruction.

Since they were going to die anyway, why implicate their sect and family?

Since they couldn’t survive, being able to let the sect escape this disaster would make their deaths somewhat valuable.

Over twenty immortals gathered in despair outside the Barrier, their bodies lit up brilliantly like bright mini suns.

"Boom!"
