The Empress of Ten Reincarnations Just to Find Me

At this moment, the sect leader suddenly raised his hand to interrupt the discussion. He looked at Chen Han with a burning gaze, a subtle glint of admiration in his eyes, and slowly said, "My friend, reaching the Yuanbing realm at such a young age is truly rare. I wonder if you belong to a sect?"

Chen Han quickly clasped his fists in salute and replied respectfully, "Thank you for the compliment, Sect Master. I don't belong to any sect."

Upon hearing this, the sect leader nodded slightly, and the admiration in his eyes became even stronger.

"Oh? How can such a talented person like you wander alone? Then are you willing to join my Lingxu Sect and become my personal disciple? My Lingxu Sect has a profound foundation and abundant resources. We will definitely help you reach a higher level in your cultivation."

Chen Han's heart moved. He knew very well that the proposal of the Lingxu Sect's leader was really tempting. If he could become the direct disciple of a powerful Yuandao Realm master, the cultivation resources and guidance he would get would definitely be beyond the reach of others.

But he already had his own plans in mind, so he politely declined.

"I am deeply grateful for your kindness, Sect Master. However, I am free-spirited and used to a solitary life of cultivation. I am afraid that I will find it difficult to adapt to the many rules and regulations of the sect. I hope that Sect Master will forgive me."

After hearing Chen Han's answer, the sect leader's face flashed with surprise. He seemed to have not expected Chen Han to refuse his invitation, and frowned slightly.

"Well, everyone has their own aspirations, and I won't force them. However, while your trespassing into our sect's formation today is understandable, it still requires a proper solution. Tell me, what should we do?"

Chen Han's heart tightened, knowing that this was the key point. He had no money on him for compensation and was extremely embarrassed.

He clasped his fists again and spoke sincerely.

"Master, it was indeed an unintentional mistake on our part to disturb your clan. It was not our intention. If you could show some leniency, or find another way..."

At this moment, one of the elders with a pointed chin and monkey-like face suddenly spoke, with a fierce look in his narrow eyes.

He said sarcastically, "Humph, you can't offer any compensation, yet you dare to reject the kindness of our Sect Master. Do you know how rare this opportunity is? How many people would beg for it but can't!"

"In my opinion, although your trespassing into the formation was unintentional and you can avoid the death penalty, you cannot escape the life sentence for your ignorant words just now. It would be better to chop off one of your hands to teach you a lesson, so that you will know that you can't just wander into any place in this world, and you can't easily refuse any good thing!"

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became cold and oppressive. Chen Han and the others all changed their expressions. Chen Yue couldn't help but take a step forward and wanted to say something, but found that he was not strong enough to get a word in.

Chen Han was startled and frowned solemnly as he spoke.

"What do you mean, Senior? Your words are too harsh. I have just explained that I had no choice but to trespass on your sect's formation, and I have already sincerely apologized."

"As for rejecting the Sect Master's kindness, it's simply because I'm used to a free and casual life, and I didn't mean to offend. I hope the elders won't be so difficult. We're all cultivators, so why force us to this point?"

The sharp-nosed and monkey-faced elder snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Hmph, you dare to talk back, kid? I think you are ignorant of your own limitations. If I don't punish you today, where will the dignity of my Lingxu Sect be?"

The atmosphere at this moment was extremely solemn and suffocating.

"Freak, don't be afraid of them. I'm here. Even if I risk being exposed, I won't let them hurt you." Mingjie's voice was determined.

At this moment, Xiao Mengyue in Chen Han's arms was not frightened by this momentum, but rather had a somewhat angry expression, as if she was enduring...

The elder with a pointed chin and monkey-like face flew forward a few steps, his face full of fierceness, as if he was going to punish Chen Han on the spot.

At this critical moment, the aura of the Dark Ring suddenly burst out. It was an extremely powerful and mysterious force, sweeping towards the elder like a surging tide.

The elder was caught off guard and was forced to take several steps back by the impact of this aura. His face was full of astonishment and fear. He obviously did not expect that Chen Han had such a powerful magic weapon that could emit such a strong deterrent force.

At this moment, the sect leader who had been standing aside and watching the situation was slightly stunned, with a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He raised his hand to signal the elder to stop for a moment, and then slowly spoke.

"Forget it. This is too difficult for others. If word gets out, people will think there's something wrong with our sect's way of doing things. Boy, I won't make things difficult for you. If you can withstand three of my moves, I'll let you and your companions go, and this matter will be over. How about that?"

Although the sect leader's voice was calm, the fluctuations of energy contained in it allowed everyone present to clearly feel his strength that should not be underestimated.

Chen Han's heart tightened. He knew very well that the Sect Master was a powerful Yuan Dao Realm cultivator. It would be no easy task for him to take three of his moves. But at this moment, he had no other choice. He gritted his teeth, clasped his fists, and said, "Thank you, Sect Master, for showing mercy. I am willing to give it a try. I hope you will show some mercy when you attack."

"Damn it, although there is only one realm difference between Yuan Dao and Yuan Bing, the difference in strength is huge. Chen Han..." Chen Yue was extremely anxious, but he knew that he was completely powerless to intervene in this unequal duel, so he could only worry on the sidelines.

On the other side, after hearing Chen Han's response, the sect leader smiled heartily, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"Good boy, you have courage. It would be great if you could be my disciple, but it's a pity. Come on, let me see how many of my moves you can take."

As he spoke, the sect leader gently waved his hand, and a stream of energy surged out from his fingertips, quickly forming a transparent barrier around him, isolating all the falling rain and making the area dry in an instant.

Chen Han saw this and knew that a fight was inevitable, so he stopped hesitating. He first gently placed Xiao Mengyue in his arms outside the barrier, then mobilized his internal energy and placed another layer of protection around Xiao Mengyue, ensuring that she would not be affected in the slightest.

After doing all this, Chen Han took a deep breath, turned around slowly, faced the sect leader with a serious expression, and prepared to face the challenge.

The Sect Master then condensed his first attack. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and his energy surged through his body, his momentum suddenly rising. He said calmly, "Boy, I won't make it difficult for you. I'll only use 60% of my strength."

As soon as he finished speaking, six Taoist flowers suddenly appeared behind the sect leader. Each Taoist flower emitted a brilliant light, and mysterious runes were faintly flowing on the petals, as if containing endless Yuanli.

Suddenly, countless lightning bolts appeared around him. These lightning bolts danced like silver snakes, interweaving and weaving together, and instantly rushed towards Chen Han.

Although he had not yet really approached Chen Han, the powerful fluctuations of Yuanli had already made him feel a tingling sensation all over his body, as if countless tiny electric currents were running on the surface of his body.

Chen Han's heart trembled, knowing that he must not be careless at this moment. Facing the attack of this Yuandao Realm expert, even leaving a little room for maneuver could put him in a desperate situation.

He acted decisively, quickly mobilizing all his energy to form a thick barrier in front of him. The barrier glowed brightly, with faint traces of energy flowing through it, like a solid shield.

At the same time, Chen Han also used his ability to control plants. Countless vines instantly sprouted from the ground beneath his feet. These vines grew and spread rapidly, entwining and intertwining with each other, forming a resilient protective layer outside the energy barrier.

Green leaves also grew on the vines, as if adding vitality and strength to the defense.

Although Chen Han tried his best to defend himself, the attack from the Yuan Dao Realm Sect Master was too powerful.

Before long, the lightning, surging like a silver snake, broke through the layers of defense. The grass and trees that protected them were instantly charred, the originally tough vines broke one after another, and bursts of black smoke rose, and the green leaves turned to ashes.

Immediately afterwards, the energy barrier was shattered by the violent impact, the light dissipated, and fragments flew everywhere.

Chen Han was shocked, but he didn't dare to slack off. Seeing that his defense was broken, he immediately used his spiritual energy.

I saw a layer of light blue light emanating from his body, and quickly formed a transparent shield in front of him. This spiritual energy was one of his most important life-saving methods. At this moment, he could not care about much else and could only use all his strength to resist this fierce attack.

Fortunately, this Yuling Qi barely blocked the remaining lightning attack, and Chen Han secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the clan leader said, "My friend, here comes the first move."

As soon as he finished speaking, the dense lightning around him instantly condensed into a huge electric sword...
