A place that I can't escape from?
Lu An's heart sank. It seemed that the Holy Land of Gu Juan had a place that was even stronger than this prison. Could this be the foundation of a medium-sized country?
"Why, are you afraid?" Shao Qingde smiled and said, "But I'm not in a hurry to leave. Since I brought you here, I naturally have my plans. I don't expect to be able to persuade you to join us immediately, but I want you to show some value first. "
With that, Shao Qingde walked to the door of the prison and waved his hand. A stream of Heaven's Origin Energy appeared, and immediately, the six pillars in the prison door rose up. Shao Qingde walked in and stepped in front of Lu An.
Lu An's eyes narrowed. He did not know what the other party was going to do. Shao Qingde stood in front of Lu An. His ring flashed, and he suddenly took out a pair of handcuffs. At the same time, he unlocked the handcuffs on Lu An's hands and put the handcuffs on Lu An.
After putting on the handcuffs, Shao Qingde unlocked the shackles on Lu An's legs. At this point, although Lu An's hands were cuffed, he could move his legs freely. However, he did not dare to act rashly. He only frowned and looked at Shao Qingde.
"Follow me." Shao Qingde said, then turned and left.
Lu An frowned. After thinking about it, he followed Shao Qingde out.
The two of them walked up the stairs. After turning the corner, Lu An found the existence of a lift. After the two of them stepped on the lift, the lift quickly rose up. In the process, they passed by the other eight floors of the prison. Lu An saw many people in the prison.
Bang!
The lift came to the surface. The surface was only one floor of the palace. There were many people guarding the palace. When they saw Shao Qingde appear, they immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Master!"
Shao Qingde ignored them and walked straight out of the prison. Lu An followed behind him. Soon, the two of them walked out of the palace. Lu An also saw the light of day again.
What entered his eyes was a very simple and elegant architectural style. The entire Holy Land seemed to have an immortal aura, and it did not seem to want to wallow in the mire of the secular world. Lu An remembered that Yan Dingjiang had once told him that Gu Juanguo's name came from the Gu Juan Sacred Ground. When the Level Seven Celestial Master created the Sacred Ground, he wanted to use this name to express his inner realm.
However, that senior probably didn't expect that the Holy Land would become like this. Lu An didn't say anything. He just calmly followed behind Shao Qingde. Previously, Shao Qingde had leaped forward at high speed. Lu An was stunned, but after thinking for a moment, he immediately followed.
Soon, the two of them arrived at a huge open space. This place was located at the northern edge of the Holy Land. At a glance, it was obvious that this was the place for the martial arts competition. The space was huge, with a length and width of two hundred feet. The ground was smooth and flat, making people feel awe.
However, what Lu An was more concerned about was that at this moment, there were more than ten middle-aged men standing on the battling platform, talking to each other as if they had been waiting here for a long time. When Shao Qingde and him appeared, these people immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Leader!"
Shao Qingde came to the front of the crowd and nodded slightly. Lu An followed behind him. He could feel that these people were all Level Five Celestial Masters. What was Shao Qingde trying to do?
"This is Lu An, who has caused a lot of trouble recently." Shao Qingde looked at the crowd in front of him and said. Immediately, everyone looked at Lu An with obvious hostility in their eyes.
After saying that, Shao Qingde turned to look at Lu An and said, "At this moment, all the Level Five Celestial Masters in our Holy Land are here. What do you think of their strength?"
Lu An was startled when he heard this. He didn't know what Shao Qingde was trying to do, but he had a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart. He said, "Very strong."
Shao Qingde was stunned for a moment. Then, he laughed and said loudly, "I thought you were a straightforward person. I didn't expect you to be so hypocritical!"
Lu An frowned. In the midst of Shao Qingde's laughter, the faces of the dozen or so elders turned ugly. After all, to speak of them like this in front of an outsider, and such a young outsider at that, they had no place to put their face.
After laughing, Shao Qingde looked at the elders and said loudly, "I rarely teach you on normal days, especially in actual combat. If I win against you, you will always think that it is because of my high cultivation level. As for him, he is only at the late stage of Level Five. How about I let him fight with you? "
Shao Qingde's voice paused and said with a smile, "Whoever can defeat him, I will reward him with a Level Six Heaven Technique! Whoever can kill him, I will reward him with two! "
The moment these words came out, the dozen or so elders trembled. Their eyes were filled with a strong desire to fight! If it was said that they only wanted Lu An to regain their face after being looked down upon by the Sect Leader, now it was a desire for benefits!
"Don't be happy too early." Shao Qingde looked at the excited elders and said, "If you lose, I will not punish you too much. Just face the wall and reflect on your mistakes for a month."
Then, Shao Qingde turned to look at Lu An and said with a smile, "As for you, my request for you is very simple. If you lose, I will kill you on the spot."
Lu An heard this and was shocked!
He immediately frowned and looked at Shao Qingde. He did want to deliberately show weakness so that he would not continue fighting. However, if that was the case, Lu An had no other choice.
"Also …" Shao Qingde pointed at Lu An's handcuffs and said, "Even if you wear the handcuffs, you cannot cause irreparable damage to them, understand?"
"…"
Lu An frowned and said, "Sect Leader Shao, you think too highly of me."
"No, I think I have already been very merciful to you. After all, you are not wearing shackles." Shao Qingde shook his head and looked away from Lu An. He said to the dozen or so elders, "Now, who wants to fight with him?"
"Me!"
"Me!"
"…"
Immediately, the dozen or so elders raised their hands and shouted anxiously at the Sect Leader. It could not be helped. In their eyes, how powerful could this young man be? If the first person defeated this young man, the second person would not even have a chance to challenge him.
Shao Qingde looked at the enthusiastic crowd and smiled. He pointed at one of them and said, "You spoke first. You go first."
The elder who was named was overjoyed and quickly walked out of the crowd. The others looked disappointed. Under Shao Qingde's order, they left the arena to watch.
"Perform well. Show them where your strength is lacking," Shao Qingde said to Lu An before he left. "Don't worry, I have no ill intentions towards you for the time being."
Lu An watched Shao Qingde leave with his brows furrowed. Finally, he turned to look at his opponent who was ten feet away from him. He took a deep breath and said, "How about we make the battle simpler?"
The opposing elder was stunned and asked, "How do you make it simpler?"
"We won't use any Heavenly Skills," Lu An said.
The elder was stunned again. He even looked at Lu An in shock. He felt that this kid's only way to fight with his hands cuffed was to keep using Heavenly Skills. After all, Heavenly Skills only required Heavenly Energy, not both hands. However, if it was a close combat, this kid would be at a disadvantage.
He was originally thinking of how to get close to this kid to fight, but he did not expect this kid to take the initiative to suggest it. Was he looking down on him?
However, for the sake of a Tier 6 Heavenly Skill, he naturally would not reject it. He gritted his teeth and said, "Kid, you asked for it. Don't blame me for bullying you!"
With that, the elder's body flashed and golden armor covered his entire body. Lu An said that he was not allowed to use Heavenly Skills, but he did not say that he was not allowed to use Heavenly Energy. At the same time, a long spear appeared in his hand. The spearhead was sharp and the body was hard. It was obviously a very good weapon!
On the other side, Lu An was still standing silently on the spot, and his entire body didn't move at all. He looked at his opponent calmly. He stood on the ground as if he was waiting to be slaughtered.
"Kid, take this!" The elder shouted and pushed off the ground with his legs. Immediately, his body turned into a ray of golden light and went straight for Lu An!
He held the long spear in his hand, and with a terrifyingly sharp aura, he went straight for Lu An's throat! This spear was indeed very strong. The opponent's strength was at the late stage of Tier 5, which was similar to Lu An's mid-stage Tier 5 strength.
The spear was like a dragon, and in an instant, it was in front of Lu An! Just as the spear was about to pierce his throat, Lu An finally moved. He dodged to the left and dodged the attack in the nick of time!
The elder was obviously stunned when his spear missed. However, as he was confident in close combat, he wanted to move smoothly. He immediately swung his spear at Lu An's neck!
Ding!
This spear was very powerful. In addition, the spear was an extraordinary weapon. Lu An should not have been able to take it head-on. However, such a powerful spear was directly blocked by Lu An, using the chain in his handcuffs.
The chain was soft, so Lu An did not suffer any serious impact. At the moment of contact, Lu An's left hand moved and the chain immediately wrapped around the opponent's spear. He exerted force with both hands and immediately locked the opponent's spear in place!
The elder was stunned. He did not expect his spear to be controlled by the opponent in this way. He immediately tried to pull the spear out with all his strength. However, the moment he pulled back, Lu An did not resist the opponent. Instead, he used the force to come in front of the opponent!
Lifting his leg, Lu An used his knee to hit the opponent's Dantian. Even though the opponent was protected by armor, he immediately pulled his right hand out and threw a punch at Lu An's knee! However, Lu An's real goal was not here. He suddenly pulled back his knee, and the handcuffs around the spear were already in front of the opponent's palm. The sharp handcuffs were aimed at the opponent's palm!
If the handcuffs hit, the opponent's fingers would definitely be broken! The elder was shocked and subconsciously released his grip.
"Idiot!" Shao Qingde scolded from afar. What happened next was Lu An's other knee hitting the elder's chest, sending him flying far away!
The elder's body flew backward. At the same time, his spear was already in Lu An's hand!
