Behind the white-haired elder, a young disciple fiercely gritted his teeth, his face filled with determination. .
The sight of the four dead disciples in front of the reception hall was simply too tragic. Anyone who saw this scene would be enraged!
These Sky ranked Gufeng disciples had gone too far!
Even in death, they didn't give the Duxu Peak disciples any dignity. This was akin to whipping their corpses!
This caused the Duxu Peak disciples to be both shocked and enraged, especially the hot-blooded young disciples. The fury in their eyes was like a volcano that was about to erupt!
"Since everyone has decided to listen to me, then I will now tell you all one word, and that is … Defend!"
Chu Chen's cold expression slowly calmed down, and he finally opened his mouth to speak.
His expression was still calm and indifferent. The word "defend" seemed to have a demonic nature.
This "word" seemed to have a strange power that seemed to spread from the depths of his soul, causing the hearts of the other disciples to gradually calm down.
Seeing the panic and despair on everyone's faces begin to calm down, Chu Chen nodded indifferently and slowly opened his mouth to speak.
"Right now, the Sky ranked Twelve Peaks are sacrificially refining the array flags in order to break our Gufeng's Ten Ultimate Formations of the Celestial Demons. However, the Ten Ultimate Formations of the Celestial Demons are after all an ancient divine formation. Even if it's only an incomplete formation, how can it be so easy to break! "
The disciples' eyes lit up with hope.
"However, according to my calculations, they will need at least three days to finish setting up the formation. Therefore, in these three days, as long as everyone doesn't casually leave the Duxu Peak, then you will be safe. "
Only three days, but the hope in the eyes of the Duxu Peak disciples quickly dimmed.
"Then what about after three days?" The white-haired old man asked doubtfully.
"After three days … we will have to rely on this reception hall to defend to the death."
Chu Chen's gaze swept across the surroundings. Looking at the grand and simple hall of the reception hall, his expression was incomparably resolute.
"This Reception Hall has existed since the ancient times. When the Void Crossing Peak was at its most glorious, it served as the Reception Hall. It has existed for hundreds of millions of years, and it still exists for eternity. It contains an inconceivable secret power."
Chu Chen's voice was very soft. His gaze was deep, as if it could pierce through time and space and see everything that had happened since ancient times.
"Even if an invincible master of the Spirit River Tier were to attack with all his might, he would not be able to cause any effective damage to this palace. When the time comes, if the twelve Gufeng of the Heaven Tier join forces to attack us, we will seal the back door and rely on this palace to defend ourselves. As long as we block the front door and fight our way to the end, we might have a chance to turn things around. "
"Listen to Eldest Senior Brother, let's do it!"
After hearing this, Feng Qiang nodded heavily and clenched his fists. "Let's go all out then. Even if we can only kill one, it's enough!"
"That's right. Now that things have come to this, we can only follow Eldest Senior Brother and fight to the end."
At the side, Han Ye, who originally had a look of despair, seemed to have completely lost all hope. Thus, at this moment, he had somewhat let go of his obsession and nodded with an awareness that he would die.
"Let's do it! What's there to be afraid of? At most, we'll die. At worst, we'll reincarnate and do it again! "
"Since we can't escape, let's fight to the death! Kill one to break even, kill two to make a profit! "
"Even if we can't kill them, we have to splash their blood all over!"
…
Under the pressure of endless despair and the threat of death, the numerous disciples of the Duxu Peak were finally completely stimulated. They all declared that they would defend to the death with Chu Chen.
In reality, in the current situation, other than defending to the death, there was no other good way to get through this crisis.
"Since that's the case, everyone should go back to their cave residences and pack up. Come to the reception hall when it's dark. Let's prepare for this bloody battle together."
Chu Chen waved his hand, his expression incomparably calm. The numerous disciples of the Duxu Peak nodded one after another, then scattered and walked back to their cave residences.
Seeing that most people had left, Zhao Shi suddenly waved his hand at Chu Chen.
"Eldest Senior Brother, let's talk somewhere else."
Then, Zhao Shi silently strode towards the north.
Behind him, Chu Chen thought for a moment, then quickly followed.
Beside him, Zi Xi silently followed.
The three of them walked on the mountain path. Along the way, Zhao Shi didn't speak much. He seemed to be very quiet, as if he was thinking about something.
Chu Chen didn't ask much. He calmly followed behind Zhao Shi. His footsteps were neither fast nor slow, as if he was taking a leisurely stroll in the courtyard.
Beside him, Zi Xi was completely silent. She just followed beside Chu Chen without saying anything or asking anything. It was as if she was in another world.
In fact, what Chu Chen didn't expect was that Zhao Shi would bring him directly to Zhao Shi's abode. Inside the abode, which was like a fairyland, there were pavilions, rockeries, streams, strange peaks, and so on. It was like an otherworldly abode of immortals.
The entire cave residence was filled with a pure white mist, making people feel as if they were in a dream.
After entering the cave residence, Zhao Shi directly brought Chu Chen to an exquisite and elegant green jade pavilion. Then, he respectfully bowed to Chu Chen.
"Senior Brother, please take a seat. Junior Sister Xu, please take a seat."
"Second Junior Brother, you don't have to be so polite. If you have something to say, just say it."
Chu Chen nodded and casually sat on a white porcelain jade stool. He knew that Zhao Shi must have something important to say to him.
Zi Xi nodded slightly and sat down quietly.
"Eldest Senior Brother, this crisis … What do you plan to do?"
When the three of them took their seats, an old servant with grizzled hair brought over a pot of good tea and respectfully placed it on the table. Zhao Shi picked up the purple clay teapot on the table and poured a cup for each of the three of them.
As he asked Chu Chen this question, Zhao Shi's expression turned serious.
"I've already said that we'll guard the reception hall to the death."
Seeing Zhao Shi's deeply furrowed brows, Chu Chen sighed softly.
"Could it be that … there's a better way than this? Junior Brother, if you have any ideas, you can say it directly. "
"In my opinion, Eldest Senior Brother's plan is to hope that the other disciples will guard the Duxu Peak to the death. Meanwhile, you should prepare to fight those Heaven-level Gufeng Senior Brothers. "
Zhao Shi leisurely took a sip of the tea in front of him.
"Ah, I really can't hide it from you, mysterious Second Junior Brother."
Chu Chen froze for a moment, then nodded with a wry smile.
