“Qin Chen, there are things you do not know.” The High Priest let out a light sigh, expressing a sense of nostalgia. “This dark source was the site of the invasion by the Dark Clan many years ago, and it was Princess Lianxin Luo who…”
Boom!!!
Before the melancholic words of the “person” could fade away, the High Priest’s palm slammed heavily onto Qin Chen's back.
As one of the three leaders of the Righteous Path Army, there was no sign before the strike, and the speed of the attack was so swift that it exceeded the reaction limits of all living beings.
Despite the suddenness of the blow, the force behind it remained as grand as an ocean, and the divine might that erupted in that instant caused the void to tremble violently.
Puff! A large spurt of blood erupted as Qin Chen fell like a shooting star, accompanied by a piercing sound, plummeting toward the Abyss of Darkness ahead.
At the same time, his face showed shock and anger as he looked at the High Priest, his eyes filled with endless disbelief and horror, clearly not expecting that the High Priest would actually attack him.
He stared hard at the High Priest, his gaze seemingly asking: Why?
Facing Qin Chen's incredulous expression, the High Priest merely curved her lips into a cold smile, and without any pause or delay, she flipped her hand, causing countless dark chains to erupt from the dark source in an instant.
With a clattering sound, numerous dark chains transformed into dozens of large formations, simultaneously descending and sealing off the entrance to the dark source.
Booming sounds echoed—dozens of dark formations rapidly interconnected, and the sky filled with chains fused into one entity, ultimately surrounding Qin Chen and forming a sealing barrier.
Moreover, several chains, like spiritual snakes, quickly spread over Qin Chen’s limbs under his shocked and furious gaze, binding him tightly.
At this moment, Qin Chen was firmly trapped within the dark source, with an endless dark power pouring in, continuously invading his body, causing him to emit painful screams.
His body and limbs were bound by countless dark chains, firmly sealing him within this dark “tomb.”
“High Priest, what are you doing?”
Qin Chen, invaded by dark power, shouted in pain, his face filled with disbelief.
He struggled violently, but under the restraints of this dark power, he found himself unable to break free, only able to let the dark power wreak havoc within him.
The High Priest looked at Qin Chen and burst into laughter, “What am I doing?
Kid, do you really not know what I’m planning?”
Qin Chen anxiously said, “High Priest, do you still not believe that I am of the human race?
I truly have nothing to do with the Yuanmo Ancestor; I am the heir of the Heaven-Piercing Sword Pavilion, you must believe me…” The High Priest shook her head dismissively, “Kid, I thought you were smart, but it turns out you are just a fool. I really don’t know how you cultivated to this level.
Regardless of whether you are of the human race, I must take action against you.”
Qin Chen was stunned.
“Why… why?”
The High Priest sneered, “Because you are Sisi’s husband. I have tried every means to make Sisi submit, only to find that you suddenly came into my Righteous Path Army territory—truly searching for something without success but finding it effortlessly. It is perfect; as long as I capture you, I do not believe that Sisi will not submit.”
Boom! The High Priest raised her hand.
From her body, a dark aura surged forth, taking control of those dark chains and tightly entangling Qin Chen in the void.
Qin Chen’s eyes suddenly widened, “Dark power, have you already allied with the Dark Clan?”
“Only now do you notice?” The High Priest let out a cold laugh, “I have not allied with the Dark Clan; I have only made some cooperation with them.”
As her words fell, the High Priest instantly pulled Qin Chen out of the dark source, binding him tightly like a zongzi, leaving him unable to move.
