Chapter 2379 Believe it or not
It was obvious that Lu Hansheng had lost and could no longer compete with Pan Ran.
"Old Lu has lost."
Ye Liujun, Rong Che, and Shen Wuyun had solemn expressions and clenched their fists.
Although they had anticipated that Lu Hansheng was no match for them, they hadn't expected the gap between them to be so significant.
Before even a hundred rounds had passed, he had already fallen into a disadvantageous position and was unable to resist.
Everyone couldn't help but stare intently at Pan Ran on the battlefield. Even though they were very wary, they had no intention of retreating. They immediately activated their Daoist scriptures and prepared to fight to the death.
Pan Ran must have used all his strength in this sword strike, intending to make Lu Hansheng deeply aware of the gap between them.
Having completely subdued Lu Hansheng, Pan Ran made no further moves. It wasn't that he was merciful, but rather that he didn't want to waste time.
Ye Liujun and the others were right there. If Pan Ran wanted to kill Lu Hansheng, they would certainly not stand idly by. If the two sides were to fight to the death, even if Pan Ran was not afraid, he would still feel a bit of a headache and would not be able to escape unscathed.
Pan Ran went through countless hardships to reach Shenzhou, hoping to stand on a higher peak and even touch the path to immortality, but unexpectedly, something went wrong along the way.
If it's not necessary, it's better to avoid some trouble.
"Are you still satisfied?"
Pan Ran stood above the battlefield abyss, looking down at Lu Hansheng within, his arrogant gaze sweeping over all others, his dark eyes cold and sharp.
Lu Hansheng's right hand is still there, but it is almost completely necrotic.
The lingering killing intent of the opponent remained on his arm, further damaging him and even spreading to other parts of his body.
Since my right hand is already useless anyway, instead of wasting my energy trying to erase the lingering sword intent, I might as well sever it.
Once the thought crossed his mind, Lu Hansheng put it into action.
They act decisively and without hesitation.
Stab it!
A cold glint flashed, and Lu Hansheng chopped off his right hand at shoulder level.
After the right arm detached from the body, it disintegrated into nothingness.
The cut is smooth and without any flaws.
The instant he severed his right arm, Lu Hansheng conjured a talisman and attached it to the wound, preventing a single drop of blood from spurting out and stabilizing the injury to prevent it from worsening.
Seeing Lu Hansheng's decisive action, a hint of admiration flashed deep in Pan Ran's eyes.
Such elegance is what makes one worthy of being called a sword cultivator.
Ye Liujun and the others watched this scene, their expressions changing slightly. They were truly shocked. They hadn't expected Old Lu to be so ruthless to them, cutting them down without hesitation.
"Not bad, better than me."
Lu Hansheng and Pan Ran looked at each other calmly.
After saying this, he quickly changed into a clean black robe and tidied his messy hair.
Snapped!
Holding a folding fan in his left hand, he flicked his wrist, and the fan opened, swaying back and forth.
As the fan swayed, a few wisps of breeze were brought, blowing up the strands of hair at Lu Hansheng's temples, giving them a graceful and flowing appearance.
Heads may be severed, blood may flow, but dignity must not be lost.
The right sleeve of the black robe was empty.
If Lu Hansheng hadn't been pale and hadn't severed his badly injured right arm, most people who didn't know the situation would probably have thought he was the victor.
Ye Liujun and the others had been prepared to stand with Lu Hansheng through thick and thin, ready to come to his aid immediately should Pan Ran dare to attack again. Suddenly, they noticed Lu Hansheng's actions, their expressions froze, their lips twitched slightly, and they were momentarily speechless: "..."
Lao Lu, at a time like this, you still have the mind to tidy up your personal image!
As expected of you!
People gained a new understanding of Lu Hansheng's little quirk.
Pan Ran was also slightly taken aback, never expecting Lu Hansheng to pull such a stunt. However, he quickly composed himself and said coldly, "Now it's time to answer my previous question."
"The secret to longevity lies in human intervention."
Lu Hansheng acknowledged Pan Ran's abilities and was willing to answer his questions.
Pan Ran looked doubtful: "Man-made?"
Lu Hansheng, fanning himself with a folding fan, slowly began to speak: "The mastermind behind this scheme is named Mu Cangyan. He is a native being of Shenzhou, who attained enlightenment over six million years ago..."
I gave a brief overview of the current situation in China; I've covered most of what I could say.
Through Lu Hansheng's narration, Pan Ran gained a deeper understanding of Shenzhou. He had long suspected that the secret of immortality was a trap, but he hadn't expected it to be so complex.
"Is this situation solvable?"
Pan Ran pondered for a long time, then slightly raised his eyes to meet Lu Hansheng's gaze again, his voice low.
"Anyway, I can't help it."
Regarding this matter, Lu Hansheng stated that he lacked the ability and was unaware of the details.
Every short interval, the emperors would hear the wondrous sound of immortality, causing their souls to tremble and making them eager to find the source.
"How strong is Chen Qingyuan?"
Putting aside the secret to immortality, Pan Ran's biggest concern right now is Chen Qingyuan.
According to his soul search, Chen Qingyuan gave the position of Dao attainment he had obtained to his confidante, and also possessed the formidable strength to suppress and kill ancient emperors. Such a heaven-defying existence was unprecedented.
"Better than me." Lu Hansheng smiled, stating a fact. He paused, then added, "Better than you too."
Pan Ran expressed strong skepticism: "I don't believe it."
To be able to rival numerous emperors with the physique of a quasi-emperor is already extremely rare throughout history, perhaps even unique. Pan Ran could accept that Chen Qingyuan was an uncrowned ruler, but he didn't believe that Chen Qingyuan could be stronger than him.
Pan Ran is only one step away from the pinnacle of the Emperor's Path.
Although this step seems very close, it is actually separated by an insurmountable chasm.
Nevertheless, Pan Ran's strength was clearly superior to that of Lu Hansheng and the others.
Perhaps, Pan Ran is comparable to the Six-Fingered God King at his peak.
"believe it or not."
Lu Hansheng didn't bother to argue, adopting an indifferent attitude.
This guy will run into Chen Qingyuan sooner or later, and then he'll accept this reality.
If Lu Hansheng were to argue with great intensity, Pan Ran would definitely scoff at him.
However, Lu Hansheng's performance was too bland, which made Pan Ran feel a strange unease. She frowned slightly, without others noticing.
Who is the Taiwei Emperor?
A few days ago, I searched the soul of a certain cultivator from the Divine Bridge and learned about many key figures. Unfortunately, I only had a few words to say and could not get a full picture.
"The peerless emperor who attained enlightenment a million years ago."
Upon hearing the mention of Emperor Taiwei, Lu Hansheng's smile immediately froze, his folding fan slammed shut, and he stood in solemn respect.
Not long ago, Lu Hansheng had personally experienced the terrifying power of the Taiwei Emperor. That experience was unforgettable and etched into his memory.
"Is he still alive?"
Pan Ran then raised another question.
"do not know."
Lu Hansheng's expression remained unchanged.
Since it involved the Great Emperor Taiwei, he was unwilling to reveal any information.
Pan Ran couldn't tell whether Lu Hansheng was lying. After pondering for a moment, he stopped asking questions.
If it weren't for Ye Liujun and the others watching closely, Pan Ran would likely have taken action to completely suppress Lu Hansheng and use extreme secret techniques to forcibly search his soul.
Let's find out in other ways!
Lu Hansheng clearly didn't want to say more, so Pan Ran had to find another way.
