"This..." Everyone's faces became extremely surprised and their hearts began to beat fast.

He was a powerful warrior who was half a step away from becoming a Hengtianzun, yet he was killed instantly!

This scene was so shocking that many people took a long time to react.

"How is it possible that a Half-step Hengtianzun died like this?" A hint of shock flashed in Mo Lixi's beautiful eyes. That man killed a Half-step Hengtianzun with just one finger. This strength was too incredible!

"How did he do that with just one finger?" Chu Feng on the side stared at the young man in white in the void. He was sure that he did not launch any attack at all, but killed the man in black with just his physical strength.

What a strong physique!

He even suspected that this person's physique had reached the level of a physical Daoist. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to release such terrifying physical strength.

There was a look of satisfaction in Lin Chen's eyes. He felt that all the pores in his body opened up and he felt refreshed when he killed the man in black robe with one finger. Especially when he killed the man in black robe, he had a wonderful feeling in his mind, as if he was connected to the heaven and earth and became one with them.

At this moment, his mind moved, and the space around him fluctuated slightly.

"Is this the amplified effect brought about after the physical body breaks through the limit?" Lin Chen murmured in his heart.

He could clearly feel that his body had become even stronger, and every move he made was filled with tremendous strength. Wisps of destructive thunder power were wandering on the surface of his body, making him look extremely domineering, as if the god of thunder had descended.

"I see." Lin Chen's mouth curled up into a smile. No wonder the man in black robe dared to challenge him before. It turned out that he had someone to rely on. However, the person he met was himself!

Just as Lin Chen was thinking, another figure appeared in the air, staring at Lin Chen with cold eyes. It was the senior brother of the man in black robe just now.

Lin Chen looked up at the senior brother of the black-robed man and said calmly, "Are you going to cause trouble for me too?"

Chapter 77, Strange Ancient Monument

"Haha, you misunderstood, fellow Taoist. I am not targeting you, but I cannot stand the arrogance of some people." The senior brother of the black-robed man said with a smile. He looked at Mo Lixi not far away and said with a smile: "I remember that fellow Taoist seemed to be Mo Lixi from the Mo Dynasty. After seeing you today, you are indeed beautiful and graceful."

Mo Lixi frowned, obviously not liking the praise from this senior brother, and said in a cold tone: "No need to beat around the bush, let's get straight to the point, what do you want to do?"

"Miss Mo is straightforward!" The black-robed man's senior brother laughed and said, "In fact, we came here just to find something on the orders of our master."

"We are just looking for one thing. Please hand it over, Miss Mo. This treasure is extremely important to our sect. I hope Miss Mo can help."

Upon hearing this, Mo Lixi's pretty face instantly turned cold, and she replied unceremoniously: "Whatever your sect wants to find, it has nothing to do with me."

Although she is gentle and kind, she is definitely not a pushover who can be bullied by anyone.

Besides, the other party is a powerful half-step Hengtianzun. Even if they really need her help, she will not agree easily.

The black-robed man's eyes flickered, and then he smiled and said, "Miss Mo, please don't misunderstand. This item is extremely important to our sect. We are determined to get it at any cost. Therefore, my junior brother begs you to do us a favor."

"I'm sorry I can't help you. Goodbye!" Mo Lixi turned around and walked to the other side, obviously not going to pay any more attention to that person.

As soon as she finished speaking, she was about to step into the space.

"Miss Mo, please stay." A voice sounded.

Mo Lixi paused, but still turned his back to the crowd, and said coldly: "What else do you want to say?"

The man continued, "I know Miss Mo is the daughter of the Mo royal family, and my disciples don't want to embarrass Miss Mo, but Miss Mo is a member of the Mo family after all. I wonder if the Mo family will intervene if Miss Mo insists on leaving?"

"Threat!" Mo Lixi's delicate body trembled slightly, and a trace of anger arose in her heart.

At this moment, she suddenly understood why the other party was chasing her. It turned out that they were worried that she would escape, so they wanted to use the name of her royal family, the Mo family, to force her to submit.

This is simply despicable!

"In that case, I'll take my leave." Mo Lixi turned around, snorted coldly, and then disappeared on the spot.

"Humph!" The people around Mo Lixi snorted coldly, their faces looking very embarrassed, and said to the man: "Don't go too far!"

"You're going too far?" The man sneered, looking in the direction where Mo Lixi disappeared, and said sarcastically: "Mo Lixi, do you really think of yourself as a princess? You are just a pawn of the Mo family. Now that the Mo family has abandoned you for their own benefit, do you think you can return to the Mo Dynasty safely?"

After saying that, the man turned and left, leaving Mo Lixi with a look of resentment.

After a moment, Mo Lixi stopped and stood in the air. Her eyes were filled with strong resentment, and she gnashed her teeth and said, "Do you think I want to go back?"

Although Mo Lixi has a gentle personality, he is also extremely proud in his bones. He would rather die than let others manipulate him.

"Miss Mo, don't be impulsive." At this time, several figures flew across the sky and landed beside Mo Lixi.

They were Mo Lishang, Mo Lishan and many other powerful members of the Mo royal family, including some at the peak of the Heavenly Venerate realm.

They had been observing secretly just now, but due to their identities, they could not reveal their whereabouts until the end when they could not help but show up to stop Mo Lixi.

Mo Lixi glanced at Mo Lishang with her beautiful eyes and said coldly: "You don't need to care about my affairs, get out of here!"

After saying that, Mo Lixi passed directly past Mo Lishang and flew off in another direction, leaving Mo Lishang in a daze.

"Li Xi..." an old man shouted, but Mo Lixi turned a deaf ear to him and ran a little faster. Not long after, he completely disappeared from their sight and his whereabouts were unknown.

"Alas!" Mo Lishang sighed. He knew that Mo Lixi was determined.

…………

On the other side, Lin Chen was walking alone in the wilderness mountains. What happened just now came to his mind, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It seemed that the muddy water of the Mo Dynasty seemed to be getting more and more lively...

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a terrifying loud noise coming from the front, and the earth shook violently, as if a dragon was turning over. Lin Chen's expression condensed slightly, and his eyes shot in the direction where the sound came from. He saw a ball of golden light blooming faintly in front of him, brilliant and dazzling, illuminating the surrounding space extremely brightly, as colorful as fireworks at night.

"Hmm? There is a treasure." Lin Chen's eyes lit up, and he quickened his pace, approaching the golden light. Soon, an ancient monument emitting golden light came into view.

The ancient stele is dark yellow in color, with many mysterious patterns carved on its surface. The stele is about three meters high and two meters wide. It stands there like a towering mountain, giving people a majestic and heavy feeling.

"The aura of this ancient stele is very unusual. I wonder what kind of secrets are hidden in it." Lin Chen murmured to himself and looked up at the sky. He found a full moon hanging there, shedding thousands of silver rays of light, covering the entire ancient tomb, as if making the ancient tomb look even more magnificent.

Lin Chen withdrew his gaze, stretched out his right hand and pressed the ancient stele.

hum-

The ancient monument began to tremble violently, releasing a brilliant golden light. A faint wave swept out, as if it contained some kind of power, blocking Lin Chen's palm. No matter how hard he tried, he could not move forward even a little bit.

"It's really extraordinary. Even my hand was bounced away." Lin Chen said in surprise.

Then he moved his gaze and looked inside the ancient stele. Apart from some strange patterns, there was nothing special about it, making it hard to understand.

"Since you can't open it, I can only try to see if it can open by itself." Lin Chen smiled softly, and immediately urged his soul power to be injected into the ancient monument.

"Buzz!" The ancient stele trembled again, and those strange runes seemed to come alive, pouring into various positions in the ancient stele. In an instant, endless dazzling golden light bloomed on the surface of the ancient stele, enveloping the entire ancient tomb. A terrible aura spread out, making people suffocate.

At the same time, the ancient stele slowly rose into the air and floated above the sky, releasing a dazzling golden light that illuminated an endless area. A powerful aura burst out from the ancient stele, as if something was reviving.

Lin Chen looked at the ancient monument, his eyes were extremely deep, revealing a hint of contemplation. What was that?

As the aura became stronger and stronger, Lin Chen frowned. What on earth was buried in this ancient tomb?

"Crack!"

A crisp sound was heard, and a crack suddenly appeared on the surface of the ancient monument. The crack grew larger and larger, gradually extending to every corner of the entire monument.

"This..." When Lin Chen saw this scene, he was immediately shocked. There was actually a living creature in the ancient monument?

"Hiss, hiss..." Golden mist gushed out from every corner of the ancient stele, completely covering the stele and gradually turning into a golden cloud. There were flashes of golden light in the cloud, like eyes, revealing an evil meaning.

"Creaky..." A sound came from the ancient monument. The sound was like something rubbing against each other and was extremely harsh.

At this moment, the golden mist actually began to flow, gradually changing into shape, and finally turned into a blurry figure, sitting cross-legged on the ancient monument with his eyes closed, as if he was practicing. Wisps of sacred light emanated from his body, like fairy light, which made Lin Chen's gaze focus with surprise in his eyes.

This blurry figure was clad in a golden robe and bathed in fairy light. He looked majestic and solemn, giving people an extremely sacred feeling that could not be desecrated.

"This……"

Lin Chen's heartbeat suddenly sped up several times and he could hardly calm down.

It was a corpse, and it had been dead for a long time, but it still maintained its original state. It even exuded a hint of auspicious aura, as if a true god had come to the world, transcending the mundane world.

"Who is this guy? How come he can still survive until now even after his death?" Lin Chen was extremely confused. This guy was too powerful.

Of course, although he was confused, none of this mattered to Lin Chen. The only thing he wanted now was to get his hands on this ancient stele!

This ancient tomb is definitely extraordinary, otherwise, the runes on the ancient stele would not release golden light. Moreover, these runes contain some kind of powerful aura that can suppress the power of the soul. Obviously, they are not simple.

"Swish!" Lin Chen took a step forward and headed straight for the ancient monument.

"Roar, roar..." Suddenly, an angry roar sounded in the ancient tomb, shocking the world. The illusory figure's eyes suddenly opened, and a dazzling golden beam of light shot out from his pupils, shooting straight towards Lin Chen. Lin Chen's expression changed sternly, he tapped the ground with his toes, and flew into the air to avoid the golden light attack.

"Hmph." A cold snort came out of the figure's mouth. The figure suddenly stood up, and his body burst into endless golden light. He stretched out his finger and pointed at Lin Chen in the air: "Heaven Sealing Technique."

In an instant, complex avenue patterns intertwined into a network, converging from all directions to form a large golden net, covering Lin Chen's body and blocking the space.

Lin Chen's face changed slightly. He tried to struggle, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he could not escape. The golden net seemed to have some kind of restraining power that could bind a person's body.

"Boom!" The ancient tomb shook violently, as if it was about to collapse. A loud roar was heard, and in the center of the golden net, stone pillars fell down and turned into powder and disappeared, as if nothing had existed just now.

"Could this ancient stele be used to seal an ancient tomb?" Lin Chen looked at the collapsed stone pillar and had a guess in his mind. If so, doesn't that mean that it is sealing some terrifying existence?

"Swoosh!" A golden figure descended from the sky above the ancient tomb. It was the same golden figure that Lin Chen had encountered before. However, compared to the previous one, the one in front of him was taller and more majestic, like a peerless god, overlooking the world, mighty and extraordinary.

The golden figure glanced at Lin Chen and seemed to have no interest in talking nonsense with him. He only uttered one word: "Kill!"

As the word "kill" was uttered, the surrounding heaven and earth seemed to become quiet, and an atmosphere of boundless solemnity spread throughout the entire ancient tomb.

The figure raised his right arm and pointed his palm at Lin Chen. In an instant, endless and terrifying sword light solidified in the space. It was extremely sharp. The sword energy whistled between heaven and earth, tearing the sky apart.

A destructive force burst out from the sword, and endless sharp sword energy whistled out, killing Lin Chen.

"This guy, he's not even bothered to say a word?" Lin Chen felt bitter in his heart. What kind of grudge is this? He's not even bothered to say a word to him?

However, facing the endless and extremely sharp sword energy, Lin Chen still did not panic. He waved his hand, and suddenly countless star-like sword auras appeared out of thin air, densely packed, covering the void, blocking in front of Lin Chen. Clanking sounds continued to ring, sparks splashed, and an extremely violent wave swept out, blowing Lin Chen's clothes up, making a rustling sound.

However, the sword energy did not last long before it was completely shattered.

"Puchi..." A sword light cut into Lin Chen's shoulder, blood splattered, dyeing his white robe red.

"hiss!"

Lin Chen couldn't help but take a breath and looked at the tall figure. The will left by the owner of the ancient tomb was so powerful!

"Boy, I'll ask you again, are you willing to submit to me?" The tall figure looked down at Lin Chen and spoke indifferently.

"Submit to you?" Lin Chen smiled. Who did he think he was? He looked at the tall figure with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. He said contemptuously, "Who do you think you are to be worthy of my submission?"

The tall figure frowned and stared at Lin Chen. He was silent for a moment, then his tone softened and he said lightly: "In that case, you can go and die."

As soon as the words fell, the tall figure raised his hand, and sword beams whizzed out from all directions, transforming into a sword net, blocking all space in the area. Endless sword beams gathered together to vaguely form a prison, revealing a suffocating majesty.

At this time, the tall figure raised his left hand again and flicked his fingers twice. Accompanied by a buzzing sound, a violent tremor came from the depths of the ancient tomb. Then, under Lin Chen's shocked gaze, two pitch-black iron rods rose from the ancient tomb and hovered in the air. The surface of the iron rods was covered with mottled rust, as if they had not been used for a long time.

"What is this thing?" Lin Chen's heart trembled violently. Although the two iron rods were very tattered, they were like two divine weapons, releasing an astonishing aura, as if they had slaughtered countless lives.

"Bang, bang." A light sound was heard, and an iron rod suddenly moved. In an instant, gusts of cold wind blew past, and the iron rod seemed to come alive, shaking wildly. Every tremor exuded tremendous power, bringing people an indescribable sense of oppression.
