C2839 Li Zhan's Choice
A cold voice rang out in the forest. Li Zhan and the others' bodies suddenly stiffened. They raised their heads in fear and looked at the figure floating above their heads.
Their eyes were filled with despair.
The person who came was precisely Ao Lingchen, who had killed four peerless sages not long ago.
They had never thought that after the great battle, Ao Lingchen didn't return to the Qin Family's ancestral land. Instead, he went to find them.
Looking at Ao Lingchen, Li Zhan and the others were in despair. They had already made up their minds to escape Eastern Wastelands as soon as possible, because they were worried that Ao Lingchen would target them and chase them down.
They had never thought that they would be too slow. Before they could escape from the Eastern Wastelands, Ao Lingchen had already found them.
"Ao Lingchen."
"Although we caused a huge ruckus in the Qin Family's ancestral land, we didn't cause too many casualties to them. We can make up for those casualties."
Li Zhan looked at Ao Lingchen with fear in his eyes, trying to suppress the fear in his heart. With a hoarse voice, he said, "As long as you are willing to let us live, we are willing to pay any price. Even if we submit to you, we will become your butcher's knife. "
Li Zhan knew very well that Ao Lingchen would never let them leave this place alive.
Under such circumstances, they could only hope that Ao Lingchen would accept their submission and let them live.
As for submitting to Ao Lingchen and taking him as his master, Li Zhan and the others didn't find it unacceptable.
The weak followed the strong. This was an unchangeable rule, unless they had the strength to decide their own life and death. Otherwise, in the coming chaotic world, submitting to an expert. On the contrary, it was the greatest hope of survival.
Although Ao Lingchen was young, he had already displayed his terrifying combat strength, killing four peerless sages with his bare hands.
In the eyes of Li Zhan and the others, following such a stunning genius was perhaps their good fortune.
However, even if they chose to submit to Ao Lingchen, it didn't mean that they would succeed. Whether they accepted them or not depended on Ao Lingchen's attitude.
Looking at Li Zhan and the others who were looking at him reverently and listening to their words of submission, Ao Lingchen's expression did not change at all.
Ao Lingchen quietly looked down at the few people below, the killing intent emitting from his body becoming stronger and stronger.
"Submit to me?"
"You are too weak. You are not qualified to follow me!"
An indifferent voice was heard from Ao Lingchen's mouth. A strong killing intent soared into the sky and crazily rushed towards Li Zhan and the others.
Ao Lingchen's refusal caused the expressions of Li Zhan and the others to change drastically. Despair appeared in their eyes.
They had never thought that they would lower their heads to Ao Lingchen in such a humble manner. They were willing to submit to Ao Lingchen and become his followers, but Ao Lingchen refused.
"Why?"
Li Zhan looked at Ao Lingchen with unwillingness, and asked the question in his heart.
He didn't believe that Ao Lingchen refused their submission because they were too weak.
Everyone present was a late sage expert. They were all powerful existences in the world.
How could they be reduced to not being qualified to follow Ao Lingchen? This answer was unacceptable to Li Zhan and the others.
Even if they were weaker than Ao Lingchen, they were still a powerful force. How could they be rejected?
"All of you are too weak. Before all of you, there were peerless sages who wanted to submit to me. They even wanted me to plant a seal on his soul in exchange for letting him live."
Ao Lingchen looked at Li Zhan and the others calmly, as if he was looking at a group of people who were about to die.
Hearing Ao Lingchen's words, even though Ao Lingchen did not say whether he had agreed or not, Li Zhan and the others could hear the implied meaning.
Because the four peerless sages who attacked Ao Lingchen were all killed by him, not a single one was left alive.
"Even the submission of the peerless sage realm won't be able to exchange for a chance to live."
Li Zhan muttered to himself, his eyes were somewhat unfocused.
A peerless sage was willing to allow Ao Lingchen to plant a seal on his soul, but the latter couldn't spare him. What right did they, who were at the late stage of the sage realm, have to be compared to a peerless sage?
Despair arose from the bottom of their hearts. All the sages present looked at Ao Lingchen with despair in their eyes.
Those peerless sages were unable to escape from Ao Lingchen. How could they, these mere late stage sages, struggle?
"Let's fight him to the death."
"Let's split up and escape. I don't believe that he can kill us all."
"That's right. Split up and run. Let's see how he's going to kill us. As for who will survive, that will depend on our luck."
Crazy roars sounded. The sages present all surged with a powerful fiendish aura as they ran wildly in all directions.
They knew very well that with Ao Lingchen's strength, if they chose to attack him, they would be seeking their own destruction.
The only way to survive was to escape in different directions. As long as they weren't pursued by Ao Lingchen, they would have a chance to survive.
At this moment, there was only one thought in the minds of all the sages, and that was to escape at all costs.
Looking at the figures fleeing in all directions, Li Zhan stood rooted to the ground. He didn't flee like these people.
Because Li Zhan knew that from the moment Ao Lingchen appeared here and found them, their fate had already been decided.
Even if they chose to flee in different directions, it would be useless.
Ao Lingchen glanced at the fleeing figures in all directions. His eyes gathered on Li Zhan and said indifferently, "They are confident that they can escape at the last moment. Aren't you going to escape?"
Ao Lingchen did not chase after them. Instead, he was very interested in Li Zhan's indifference.
He was very curious. Why didn't Li Zhan choose to escape like the others?
Li Zhan looked at Ao Lingchen with a bitter smile. "Is there any use in running away? Is it really possible to escape in front of you?"
Facing this expert who could kill four peerless sages, Li Zhan knew very well that there was no meaning in fleeing.
Rather than wasting this meaningless struggle, he might as well wait for the judgment of fate.
A hopeless situation where he could not see any hope made Li Zhan choose to play dumb.
"Interesting, looks like you're the only one here who can see through the truth." Ao Lingchen chuckled. A powerful Reincarnation Saint aura burst out from his body. On top of the Black Tower, several bright purple beams shot out.
These purple beams were like divine lights of destruction. They instantly broke through the sky and flew towards the direction where the sages were escaping to.
Bang!
A series of explosions rang out, and a violent explosion sounded in the distant void. Hurricanes surged and raged.
The Samsara Divine Light directly blasted those fleeing sages into a mist of blood. In the face of such a terrifying killing move, these sages simply didn't have any ability to resist at all.
Li Zhan's eyes flushed red when he saw the commotion of the explosion in the distance and those figures that were blasted into a mist of blood.
Even though Li Zhan had long thought of this situation and had long thought of this outcome, when he saw this scene with his own eyes, he was still very moved.
"It's just as you thought. How could they possibly escape?"
Ao Lingchen slowly retracted his gaze and looked at Li Zhan. "They have already left. It's your turn now."
Li Zhan revealed a bitter smile and stared at Ao Lingchen. "I want to die with dignity. Let me witness the power of a peerless sage."
As he spoke, a powerful fiendish aura burst out from Li Zhan's body. An extremely terrifying force surged out.
At this moment, Li Zhan was crazily burning his blood essence, Yuan Shen.
He knew very well that there was a huge gap between his strength and Ao Lingchen's. It was the same as comparing heaven and earth.
This huge gap could only bring a slight threat to Ao Lingchen by burning everything he had.
As for why Li Zhan was so decisive, the reason was very simple. The moment he saw Ao Lingchen, he knew that he wouldn't be able to escape the fate of being killed in body and soul.
Since he already knew what his fate was, and that he wouldn't be able to change it no matter how hard he struggled, why would he still have such delusions?
Since that was the case, he would naturally go crazy.
Obviously, even if Li Zhan was going to die, he still wanted to witness Ao Lingchen's strength.
"I will never have the chance to reach the peerless Saint realm in my life. However, I also want to experience the power of the peerless Saint realm myself."
Li Zhan's body was filled with a monstrous fiendish aura. His Qi and blood were surging as he stared fiercely at Ao Lingchen.
Since he was unable to reach the peerless Saint realm, he would let Ao Lingchen experience it.
Seeing Li Zhan's crazy actions and the desire in his eyes, a strange look emerged in Ao Lingchen's eyes.
Li Zhan's courage and choice surprised Ao Lingchen.
He didn't expect this person to have such courage.
"Very well, I will fulfill your request."
Ao Lingchen said indifferently. The Black Tower in his hand shone with a brilliant purple light.
Although Li Zhan had attacked the Qin Family's ancestral land not long ago and was their enemy, Ao Lingchen still intended to fulfill this request.
"What an overbearing pressure. Come, let me see it for myself!"
Li Zhan laughed maniacally and rushed towards Ao Lingchen.
The moment he charged towards Ao Lingchen, the energy in his body became more and more chaotic, as if it was going to expand to the limit.
"Do you want to self-destruct?"
"You seem to be too naive in your thoughts."
Ao Lingchen said calmly. The Black Tower forcefully charged towards Li Zhan who was rushing over.
The Black Tower erupted with an extremely terrifying and ferocious aura. In an instant, Li Zhan, who was rushing over, was smashed into a bloody mist.
Under the impact of the Black Tower, Li Zhan could not even struggle.
Looking at Li Zhan, who had completely turned into ashes, Ao Lingchen shook his head slightly.
In his opinion, Li Zhan's final choice was meaningless.
After finishing off all the enemies here, Ao Lingchen also soared into the sky and headed towards the Qin Family's ancestral land.
The chaos in the Eastern Barren Territory had finally calmed down.
However, Ao Lingchen also understood that this tribulation was only the beginning. The real chaotic world was not far away.
