After being read by the mind, my apprentice wanted to rebel

The strength of a peak Fusion Stage cultivator was extremely terrifying; any casual attack from them was definitely not something an ordinary cultivator could withstand. At this moment, the old man faced this inevitable death. His eyes widened, his face filled with fear, and he had already accepted his fate.

However, at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the old man. It turned out to be Lin Yu! He stepped forward and blocked the fatal blow with his own body.

There was a loud bang, and the air around him seemed to be torn apart. Lin Yu groaned, but did not retreat half a step. He withstood the blow. After so many years, Chen Xiong's strength has become stronger.

"Chen Xiong, don't go too far. Have you forgotten the agreement between the cultivators in the fusion stage?" Lin Yu glared at Chen Xiong, with sparks of anger flashing in his eyes.

In today's world of immortal cultivation, those at the peak of the Fusion Stage have become the pinnacle of existence. To prevent these powerful cultivators from bullying the weak, the cultivators have reached a crucial consensus: unless in dire circumstances, peak-Fusion Stage cultivators must refrain from attacking other cultivators. This agreement aims to maintain order and fairness within the world of immortal cultivation, ensuring that every cultivator has the opportunity to pursue their own path to immortality.

"You brought this upon yourself, you can't blame anyone else. Whoever dares to take another step forward, I'll make sure he knows how the gates of hell are opened!" Chen Xiong's face was terribly gloomy, his tone was extremely domineering, and a powerful aura emanated from his body, as if warning everyone not to act rashly.

His eyes were cold and fierce, making people dare not look directly at him. At this moment, he was like an unchallengeable overlord, majestic and awe-inspiring.

Although the two old guys were quite powerful, they pale in comparison to Chen Xiong. They knew how powerful Chen Xiong was and could not help but feel a sense of fear in their hearts.

Chen Xiong's style has always been this: the strong are respected. He believes that he is the most powerful being. This domineering and self-confidence comes from his years of training and accumulation, as well as his absolute trust in his own strength.

Everyone present was furious, but faced with Chen Xiong's threats, they could only swallow their anger. After all, no one wanted to easily provoke this domineering old man, lest they bring about their own death.

However, the disappearance of so many fellow disciples still required an explanation. Everyone was anxious and unsure how to handle the situation. They feared Chen Xiong's power and worried about not being able to explain themselves to their fellow disciples.

At this moment, a dark figure quietly hid in the darkness not far away. He watched everything happening at the Chen family's door with a sinister smile on his face.

"This old fellow Chen Xiong is still as domineering as ever..." the black shadow muttered to himself, with a hint of disdain and sarcasm in his voice.

His eyes darkened as he pondered how to successfully deal with the Chen family, a glint of cunning flickering in them from time to time. While the Turtle Yuan Dan was undoubtedly invaluable to him, he desperately desired the Chen family's secret method for creating the living dead and Chen Xiong's inner elixir. Possessing these would grant him boundless power and benefits, allowing him to realize his long-held ambitions.

Not long after, a dark figure suddenly appeared beside the black figure. The figure bowed respectfully and said in a low voice, "Master, I have followed your instructions and made proper arrangements for Phantom and the others."

The shadow nodded slightly, and spoke in a calm yet dignified tone, "Very good, everything will proceed as planned. Remember, I must get what I want today!"

"Yes, sir!" the subordinate replied in a low voice, and then disappeared without a trace like a ghost in an instant.

Time ticked by, and just as the Chen family and the numerous cultivators reached a stalemate, a sudden, violent tremor erupted from a spot in the Chen family's backyard. This sudden change startled everyone present. Then, a deafening, terrifying, manic roar rang out in everyone's ears.

The Miao group had been hiding among the immortal cultivators. When they heard the voice, the Great Elder and Luo Rou looked at each other with confusion in their eyes.

"What's going on?" Luo Rou asked the elder in a low voice.

The Great Elder frowned. "It should be the living dead who have been dispatched. However, exposing the living dead to the Chen family at this time would do more harm than good to them. Why is this happening?"

Luo Rou pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps something special happened among the living dead, leading to the riot."

The Great Elder nodded: "No matter what, this development will be more conducive to rescuing the First Prince and recapture the Gu King."

Chen Xiong, who had been standing firmly at the Chen family's door to block the crowd, now had a gloomy expression. He hadn't been this angry in a long time, and secretly cursed in his heart, "Chen Guanhua, that idiot, can't even do this!"

The exposure of the living dead at this point will only accelerate the decline of the Chen family. However, at this moment, he no longer has the energy to blame Chen Guanhua, because Lin Yu and Jiang Ming are already heading towards the Chen family, and he must go to stop them immediately.

On the side of the immortal cultivators, everyone was startled by the roar coming from the Chen family, and they all started whispering to each other.

"What on earth happened in the Chen family?"

"What's that noise? It sounds horrible!"

"Could it be that the Chen family is hiding some secret weapon?"

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the gate of the Chen family. They stared at the tightly closed door, ready to rush into the Chen family at any time to find out what was going on inside.

Chen Guanhua, the head of the Chen family, was filled with confusion and shock. He couldn't understand why the controlled living dead would suddenly act on their own. However, the current situation didn't allow him to panic; he had to remain calm.

So, he made a quick decision and divided his men into two groups. One group was responsible for blocking the cultivators at the door and preventing them from breaking into the Chen family; while the other group followed him to the backyard to check the specific situation of the living dead.

At the same time, a fierce battle was taking place in the sky. Chen Xiong, Lin Yu, and Jiang Ming were already fighting each other. They were all strong men at the peak of the Fusion Stage. Every move they made contained a powerful force, causing the sky and the earth to change color and the wind and clouds to surge.

Chen Xiong stood tall, towering in the air like an iron tower. He wielded a massive axe, its tip gleaming with a cold light. His eyes were cold and sharp, filled with murderous intent. Every time he swung the axe, it blew up a fierce gust of wind, as if ripping the air apart.
