System: Arena of the Gods

Xie Chen's slashing attack from the air caused the sect master to fall into a state of chaos, unable to distinguish what his true thoughts were, and even tended to confuse reality and illusion.

Logically speaking, after being mentally attacked, the fastest way to help get out of trouble is to transfer the pain and use physical pain to awaken the mental confusion.

Xie Chen thought so and did the same thing, but he was also surprised that the sect leader still hadn't returned to normal.

What he doesn't know is that the resentment of ghosts and gods is not directed at the target or the caster itself, but is infinitely amplified based on the target's emotions towards other targets.

Unless the spirit can be directly appeased, ordinary methods of escaping from the illusion will have limited effect.

Especially now that the sect master has experienced a series of setbacks and has complicated emotions. No matter which aspect of negative emotions is amplified, the result is the same.

Xie Chen's method of breaking the situation actually amplified other negative emotions under the stimulation of pain. Although the proportion was not high, it began to suppress rationality as a whole.

When he and Wang Chu missed each other, Xie Chen cast a complex and changeable look. Wang Chu could see the fear, panic, depression and other emotions in his eyes, but there was also an inexplicable emotion that Wang Chu could not understand.

Xie Chen responded with a knowing smile. This time he really didn't have any other emotions. He just wanted to smile.

But in Xie Chen's view, this was still provocation and irony, and his eyes turned into anger.

Wang Chu stopped paying attention and glanced around. The cracks were still close to completely including all the disciples who had not had time to stay away. Even if there was a difference, compared with the number of people who escaped, they still accounted for [-]%.

The two planes are connected, and both inside and outside Wang Chu exert influence on the direction of the crack's spread, accelerating the spread of the crack and gradually building it into a cage shape.

After all the changes, the accident only happened for a few breaths. The monks who escaped were still confused and had no time to accept the reality. But when they looked back, the closest fellow disciples who were trapped were only a few meters apart. , this short distance actually became the difference between life and death.

However, when Xie Chen passed by them, they rekindled their hope. In the face of such a dilemma, the strong are more reassuring than the wise.

"Your Majesty, please think of a way!"

"Please take action, Your Majesty!"

"I see hope and the future path of our sect!"

……

Requests and exclamations came one after another behind him. Xie Chen didn't feel very happy as he listened, but his eyes gradually became colder and then turned fierce.

Approaching the sect master, he had already raised his sword to the back of his head and shouted: "Sect Master, wake up quickly!"

This sharp shout was mixed with his Yuan Power and spiritual will, which directly shocked the sect master to the point of bleeding from all his orifices, but even so, the sect master's eyes still did not regain clarity.

Seeing this, Xie Chen made a decision. He gritted his teeth, struck his heart, slashed with his broken edge, and shot out a bloody sword. At this time, the wind brought by his rapid rush hit the sect leader, and his head fell off. fall.

Xie Chen's movements did not stop. He pulled off the sect master's storage ring and forcibly erased the spiritual restrictions on the storage ring. Then he took out a gradually dimming golden token with several simple large characters engraved on it.

All the cries, pleas for help, and compliments suddenly disappeared, and the silence was mixed with some incredible charm.

"Your Majesty, kill the sect leader?"

"Your majesty, are you trying to steal the clan leader's token?"

"The time has not come yet, why is it so urgent!"

No one was excited, even the monks who supported Xie Chen didn't feel the slightest joy at succeeding in becoming a leader.

Although they support Xie Chen, they also need to pay attention to timing. If the timing is not right, they will become rebellious.

Everyone is a fellow sect who shares life and death, and the concept of superiority and inferiority is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The power struggle is just for that position, and you can do whatever you want, but it is not directed at the sect leader personally.

They need to ensure that the sect master can abdicate alive, which can be regarded as preserving the "relationship between monarch and minister". As for whether the sect master can accept it in the future, or whether he can't figure it out and die in depression, it is not their responsibility.

But now Xie Chen chopped off the head of the sect leader in front of all the survivors of the Xuanqing Sect, and things became troublesome. If he could kill the sect leader, would he care about their lives when he became the sect leader?

Those who originally supported Xie Chen now felt shaken in their hearts.

Xie Chen knew that there would be such a result, but he obeyed his authority in urgent matters. He did not seek the understanding of his elders and disciples. Even if everyone could understand his painstaking efforts afterwards, there would still be pedantic people who did not approve of him, and he did not care anymore.

The light of the golden token disappeared, and he couldn't wait to draw a drop of blood. The blood fell on the token, as if it had fallen on the water, becoming dense and melting in it.

"I understand. The sect master was cured by Wang Chu using strange means. Your Majesty, he did it to save us."

"That's right, the monarch had given a reminder before to lift the restriction, but the sect master did not take any action."

"In this way, only the monarch himself can control the restriction, and only by becoming the suzerain and recognizing the master's token can the restriction be lifted."

"Damn Wang Chu, he actually let the king be charged with murder!"

The monks trapped in the cracked cage quickly opened their mouths to explain to Xie Chen. Although everyone might have guessed Xie Chen's intentions, someone would definitely come forward to accuse him.

It would be difficult for Xie Chen not to be affected by that time, so they could only speak first, emphasize the reasons, and block everyone's speech. Anyone who offends everyone's will and accuses Xie Chen is ignoring his fellow disciples.

This move was indeed effective. Some people who were deeply influenced by traditional thinking were about to criticize, but after hearing the voices of the trapped disciples, they held back and could only point at Xie Chen's back with trembling fingers.

However, when Xie Chen finally recognized the lord's token and turned around to lift the restriction, his movements suddenly stopped and his expression was miserable.

The cracked cage has been formed, with more than [-]% of the locked disciples numbering in it. It collapsed in an instant. Even if he lifted the restriction, how many people could he save?

If he resisted the backlash of forcibly lifting the restriction and could only save a small number of people in the end, but his body was damaged by the backlash, what chance would he have of winning against Wang Chu?

If he loses in the end, will Wang Chu let the remaining people go? Even if he could survive, he would probably become a slave. What dignity would there be in living like this?

When he stopped, the voices that supported him gradually weakened, and some of those who still insisted on supporting him actually choked with sobs.

Why on earth, why did Lord Guanhai suddenly stop? Wasn't it because he took the position of sect leader to save them?

Wang Chu was in the center of the cage, touching his chin, smiling broadly, and said softly: "What a good show."

Then his body disappeared, and at the same moment, the cracks burst out with a crisp sound, and the space began to collapse.
