I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 2126: Chapter 2126: Damn It, Got Played by Mu the Sixth...

Cracks are difficult to repair; once a crack forms, most of the impact gathers at the fissure, breaking through from a point to a surface.

Chu Ran seemed certain that Ning Chenxin could not withstand the self-detonation of the Muddy World Fire Lotus. To prevent being affected by the aftermath, he had already prepared a protective treasure for himself, covering himself like a turtle shell.

”You’re struggling to protect yourself, yet you still think you can absorb all the explosive energy?” Chu Ran sneered, ”If you let others share the damage, you might just manage to fend it off.”

Ning Chenxin said nothing, holding the Dao Law in one hand and pointing the other towards it continuously, infusing power into it. His face was already pale, and his fingers trembled from time to time.

It seemed he had reached his limit.

Netherworld King snorted coldly, slashing Fang Jinghong back with a sword. Fang Jinghong spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, losing the ability to continue fighting, and then rushed towards Chu Ran.

Hong Ying similarly changed her target, charging towards Chu Ran from another direction.

Chu Ran glanced around, stretching out his hands and said, ”Do you truly think anyone can easily handle me?”

The Dharma Seal on the wheel suddenly enlarged, creating barriers along the path of Netherworld King and Hong Ying.

For a moment, Netherworld King and Hong Ying truly couldn’t break through the barrier.

This wheel wasn’t a mundane object!

It’s only fitting that the Chu Family’s direct lineage has so many treasures.

Netherworld King glanced at Ning Chenxin’s state, then turned his gaze to Chu Ran, ”Matching treasures?”

A brocade bag appeared in his palm.

Hong Ying mirrored his actions, putting down the Sacred Willow Phoenix Fire Gun, and a brocade bag similarly appeared in her palm.

Seeing this, Chu Ran felt a foreboding in his heart, silently channeling all his power into the Dharma Seal wheel.

The barriers unknowingly became thicker.

Netherworld King and Hong Ying exchanged glances and nodded, both opening their brocade bags.

From the brocade bags, countless talismans floated out.

Chu Ran stared blankly at this scene for a moment, not knowing what to say.

If you don’t look closely, you’d think it was migratory birds or locusts passing through.

Who would set loose thousands of talismans in a fight?

Who has the wealth to carry so many talismans every time they go out?

How prosperous must one’s family be to withstand such expenditure?

Moreover... these talismans are of high rank.

Indeed.

This is the benefit of having a talisman master in the home... No, the benefit of having a ’King of Scrolls’ talisman master in the home.

Chu Ran had only met Mu Fusheng before entering the Yin Yang Heavenly Pool, but he didn’t know Mu Fusheng had such means.

Vice Hall Master Lin knew Mu Fusheng, but seeing so many talismans used at once...

Vice Hall Master Lin’s face turned green!

It was Vice Hall Master Lin who personally evaluated Mu Fusheng and allowed Mu Fusheng to provide some talismans to the Supervisory Temple.

Mu Fusheng’s original words were... ”These talismans are of too high a level, so the materials needed are difficult to refine... The risk of failure is high, so I require the Temple to provide twice as much material as this.”

”And it only takes five days to carve one or two.”

At the time, Vice Hall Master Lin thought Mu Fusheng had high talent and was quite satisfied.

Looking at it now... If these talismans were all carved by Mu Fusheng, how could his talisman engraving speed possibly be slow?!

Even five days would be considered slow!

A talisman master who can quickly engrave talismans naturally has a high success rate.

It’s not possible to say the engraving is fast but doesn’t ensure a high success rate, that would be nonsense...

”Damn it... I’ve actually been played by a junior.”

Vice Hall Master Lin hadn’t cursed out loud in thousands of years.

Chu Ran’s face completely changed, even fumbling as he took out other protective treasures.

Among them were also some talismans.

Even though these talismans weren’t of particularly high grade, there were just too many of them!

If the realm or body wasn’t suppressed, it would be manageable.

In the current situation, if he were too stingy with those treasures, he might really be blasted to ashes.

As Netherworld King and Hong Ying simultaneously performed gestures.

Thousands of talismans sparkled with lightning at the same moment.

Then exploded.

Boom——!!

Centering on Chu Ran, the surroundings plunged into a sea of lightning.

Even black lightning appeared in the surrounding space, showing the space’s inability to withstand the pressure.

A series of thunderous roars lasted only a while, and all anyone could hear was a piercing tinnitus.

To prevent the aftermath from affecting Ning Chenxin and the Yangdao Sea Fish.

Netherworld King and Hong Ying used a Thunder Control Talisman from the brocade bag.

This was purposely prepared by Mu Fusheng.

He said if talismans needed to be used on a large scale, or many were required at once, and the aftermath’s spread should be limited, the Thunder Control Talisman could be used to restrain the area covered by the thunder.

Simultaneously, using the Thunder Control Talisman to limit the range also compresses attacks to a certain degree, increasing their power.

Both Netherworld King and Hong Ying had to admit, Mu Fusheng’s considerations were incredibly comprehensive.

He not only solved the problem of being detected by others but also added conditions to enhance power within the solution.

Within the sea of lightning, nothing was visible anymore.

Chu Ran was utterly overwhelmed within it.

Meanwhile, Fang Jinghong, slightly recovering from severe injuries, opened his eyes and witnessed this scene.

His throat moved up and down.

Damn... should I actually thank Ye Bai for holding back?

Many people were watching this scene.

Watching the sea of lightning gradually dissipate.

Each talisman’s lightning faded one after another, turning into regular talismans soaked by the seawater.

A remaining damaged barrier was revealed at the center of the fading sea of lightning.

Hoo... hoo...

Heavy breathing.

Within the sea of lightning, a man was seen with one hand limply dripping blood, while the other trembled as it remained extended.

Tattered clothes, no part of the body without injuries, blood flowing everywhere.

It was Chu Ran!

Chu Ran weakly half-opened his eyes and, though smiling, was too feeble to form a grin, ”Never thought I’d be pushed to this point one day...”

Netherworld King looked at Chu Ran, saying, ”You don’t have any Holy Sect evil cultivator aura on you; you still refuse to use evil cultivation techniques for protection at this point?”

In Chu Ran’s eyes, the same disdain as displayed at the Banan Border appeared, he spat and let loose a bloodied tooth.

”I am of the Chu Family’s direct lineage; even if we collaborate with the Holy Sect sometimes, it doesn’t mean I’ll join the evil cultivators. Those are two separate matters.”

Hong Ying nodded slightly.

After all, he was from an ancient aristocratic family.

Entirely different from a first-rate power like the Banan Divine Country.

Ba Tiance has already discarded the Divine Country’s pride before achieving his goals, subjugating himself and the Divine Country as vassals of the Holy Sect, bowing to them.

As for Chu Ran? He remained disdainful where he deemed it warranted. Cooperation was considered if advantageous, but joining them was impossible, as the Chu Family’s bloodline remained proud.

”In that case, I won’t kill you. I’ll hand you over to the Chu Family and let them handle you themselves.”

Chu Ran was taken aback, raising his head in fear.

Only to see Ning Chenxin unharmed.

But the Muddy World Fire Lotus had already vanished, along with the ’Dao’ character.
