Upon seeing the blood dragon before them, the assassins were immediately terrified.

Wasn't the target supposed to be just an ordinary celestial being?

This sword strike was not something an ordinary celestial being could wield!

At this moment, Wei Pengtao said to the others, "Go all out! Don't hold back!"

As soon as they finished speaking, everyone used their strongest spells. In the next moment, various spells came crashing down on Lu Chen. Although Lu Chen's sword strike was far beyond the strength of a Celestial Immortal, it was quickly blocked when several Golden Immortals attacked at the same time.

Lu Chen glanced at the masked people in front of him. Although the masks of these assassins were designed to prevent divine sense from detecting them, Lu Chen did not need to use his divine sense to identify a person.

Lu Chen then used the system to identify the identities of these people and found that they were all disciples of Tianyu Peak.

Lu Chen couldn't help but doubt Tianyu Immortal Venerable again. Could it be that Tianyu Immortal Venerable really sent them to deal with him?

Just as Lu Chen was thinking this, Wei Pengtao attacked again, slashing at Lu Chen with his sword.

Lu Chen immediately sheathed his sword, and the next moment, a Tai Chi diagram appeared behind him.

Just as Wei Pengtao's sword energy was about to touch Lu Chen, it suddenly disappeared.

Lu Chen, at the Celestial Immortal realm, was able to withstand a full-force attack from a Celestial Lord using the Primordial Limitless Scripture, let alone an attack from a mere Golden Immortal.

Wei Pengtao was still not giving up, so he swung his knife again, but after more than a dozen slashes, he still couldn't hurt Lu Chen.

Wei Pengtao couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, is this really a celestial being?"

Just then, Lu Chen activated the Primordial Limitless Scripture, and in an instant, all the sword energy that Wei Pengtao had just swung at Lu Chen flew back towards Wei Pengtao and the others.

Seeing this, Wei Pengtao and the others' expressions changed slightly. "This is bad!"

Wei Pengtao and the others quickly dodged. After the sword energy subsided, Wei Pengtao frowned deeply, "What kind of evil magic is this!"

He could tell at a glance that the sword energy Lu Chen had just released was actually the sword energy he had previously unleashed; clearly, the other party had converted his attack into Lu Chen's attack.

If the opponent can keep switching his attacks like this, they probably won't be able to hurt this guy at all.

However, Wei Pengtao quickly realized that the more heaven-defying the immortal technique, the greater the consumption of immortal energy. This kind of immortal technique, which can completely convert the attack of a Golden Immortal, should consume even more terrifying immortal energy. As long as they wait for this guy's immortal energy to be exhausted, they will be able to kill him easily.

However, the commotion here will soon attract other people, and they must act quickly.

Wei Pengtao guessed that the more powerful the opponent's switching technique, the greater the consumption of their immortal energy would be. Thinking this, Wei Pengtao immediately said to the people behind him, "Don't hold back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Pengtao gathered all his immortal energy.

The next moment, a huge golden bell appeared above his head, and then he shouted, "Soul-Suppressing Bell!!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, waves of sound rushed towards Lu Chen, but they disappeared again just before they reached him.

Like Wei Pengtao, the other people's spells also vanished without a trace just before they were about to touch Lu Chen.

Wei Pengtao did not stop and continued to attack, but despite their several all-out attacks, Lu Chen remained firmly in place.

Wei Pengtao frowned, his face instantly turning extremely ugly. How could a mere Celestial Immortal possess such strength? All of them were Golden Immortals, and they had all gone all out, yet they still couldn't shake this person.

Just then, Lu Chen said with a smile, "You guys don't have any other tricks up your sleeves, so it's my turn to make a move?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chen activated the Taiji Diagram behind him. Immediately afterward, the magical phenomena that Wei Pengtao and the others had used reappeared, and those magical techniques locked onto Wei Pengtao and the others.

Wei Pengtao hurriedly took out various magical treasures to defend himself. Although they managed to block his spells, they felt extremely frustrated.

Several Golden Immortals attempted to assassinate a Celestial Immortal, but not only were they unable to defeat the Celestial Immortal, they were instead left in a sorry state by him.

At this moment, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something and immediately said to Wei Pengtao, "Senior Brother Wei Pengtao, Celestial Venerable Tianyu just sent me a message asking you to go to her place."

Upon hearing this, Wei Pengtao and the others were stunned and speechless.

They were afraid of being discovered, so they all wore masks that could block divine sense detection. Chen Lu would have absolutely no way of recognizing them, and Chen Lu himself didn't know them. In other words, what Chen Lu said was very likely true.

As a Celestial Venerable, Tianyu Immortal Venerable knew what had happened on Tianyu Peak with a single thought.

Although their face masks could block the divine sense of most immortals, they could not block the divine thought of the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerable.

However, these Golden Immortals were only minor figures on Tianyu Peak, so Tianyu Immortal Venerable should not know their names. The only possibility is that Tianyu Immortal Venerable already knew about them.

Thinking of this, Wei Pengtao and the others broke out in a cold sweat.

This is terrible...

Seeing that the group was stunned by his words, Lu Chen said, "If you don't go, I don't know what will happen to you."

Upon hearing this, Wei Pengtao and the others realized what was happening and, without hesitation, went directly to the residence of Celestial Venerable Tianyu, the Celestial Palace.

As for escaping, they had no such thought at all. With the strength of an Immortal Venerable, if they were to escape now, their bodies would probably turn into blood mist before they even left Tianyu Peak.

On the way to Tianyu Palace, someone asked nervously, "Why does the Peak Master want us to go there?"

"Are they going to kill us?"

Wei Pengtao said, "If the peak wanted to kill us, we would already be corpses by now. She probably wants to know who the mastermind is."

Wei Pengtao said, "If we reveal the mastermind behind this, we might still have a glimmer of hope."

At this point, Wei Pengtao felt extremely regretful. He should never have tried to assassinate Chen Lu. They initially thought that Chen Lu was just a servant of Xu Jingshu, and that even if he died, Tianyu Immortal Venerable wouldn't care. That's why they agreed to let the people of Tianying Peak assassinate him.

Soon, Wei Pengtao and his group arrived at Tianyu Palace. Just as they were about to enter, they were stopped by a woman in green.

"What are you doing?"

The woman in green was puzzled when she saw several Golden Immortals running towards Tianyu Palace, as disciples of Tianyu Peak usually did not come to this place.

Wei Pengtao said, "The Palace Master sent us."

Upon hearing this, the woman in green was stunned again. Why hadn't she heard from Celestial Venerable Tianyu that she had summoned someone?

After regaining her senses, the woman in green said, "You all wait here, I'll go in and inform them first."

Soon, the woman in green entered the palace. At this time, the Celestial Venerable Tianyu was sitting cross-legged in the main hall. She opened her eyes after sensing someone enter.
