What the hell?
Li Chonglou’s words got stuck in his throat.
He stared at the man, utterly stunned.
The Sinful Angel, a man at the seventh realm before Li Chonglou, quickly spoke again, "Brother Li, the people from Black Net have already infiltrated. We can only survive if we cooperate."
What was this guy talking about?
Li Chonglou gazed at the man, confused, momentarily bewildered by his attitude.
Just then, another assassin appeared.
"Captain Sinful Angel?"
The latter immediately recognized the man's identity and then spotted Li Chonglou.
"It's him! Captain, should we..."
Sinful Angel's expression changed, and he quickly interrupted, "Don't talk nonsense! Don't you know the current situation with Black Net? Can we still trust them?"
The latter then paused.
Right, the people chasing them now seemed to be from Black Net. How could they trust its missions?
At this moment, Sinful Angel spoke again, "Brother Li, is this the location of the Divine Thunder Source?"
The assassin who had arrived behind was shocked, realizing that only Li Chonglou had another passage behind him.
Divine Thunder Source, so this was the Divine Thunder Source?
The assassin became excited for a moment, but then quickly turned worried.
"Captain, now is not the time to be looking for the Divine Thunder Source. Those guys are about to catch up."
Sinful Angel's expression shifted slightly.
Li Chonglou was about to speak when he saw another figure appear at the end of his line of sight.
No, not just one, but several figures appearing one after another.
He finally understood. The old village chief and the others were driving everyone towards him.
This was a clear indication that they knew the array spirit would automatically retaliate.
Thinking from another perspective, if that was the case, why did someone have to guard here alone?
Perhaps a sacrifice was needed to truly awaken the array spirit! This old fellow probably hadn't had good intentions for him from the beginning!
Thinking of this, Li Chonglou felt a surge of anger.
At this moment, almost all the assassins who had not yet been targeted had gathered here.
Including Wolverine, who had successfully escaped, and the two assassins previously driven away by Li Chonglou.
Everyone gathered not far away.
"Sinful Angel, what's the situation now?"
The latter recounted his speculation.
At this point, an assassin spoke.
"Captain, now is not the time to worry about the Divine Thunder Source. Let's go and save our lives first."
Of the assassins, fewer than twenty remained, a reduction of half!
But everyone knew clearly that the other half wouldn't last much longer, and those monstrous individuals might appear at any moment.
Before Sinful Angel could speak, the two assassins previously driven away by Li Chonglou recounted what had happened.
Everyone's brows furrowed.
Can't get past?
"Don't you find it strange? Why is he standing there motionless?"
Finally, someone pointed out Li Chonglou's abnormality.
"Doesn't it look like he's performing some ritual?"
"Could he be absorbing the Divine Thunder Source?"
Everyone began to murmur.
However, they were unaware that every word of their conversation was being heard by Li Chonglou.
So that's what it was.
Li Chonglou instantly understood the whole story.
Wait, perhaps they could help me speed things up!
Li Chonglou suddenly recalled that when the two men attacked earlier, it was the array spirit's instinctual counterattack, and this counterattack seemed to consume its energy.
With this thought, Li Chonglou conceived a plan.
He couldn't help but speak proactively, "You want to go and find the Divine Thunder Source?"
Sinful Angel's face lit up, and he quickly asked, "Is this really the location of the Divine Thunder Source?"
At this moment, Wolverine also walked out from the crowd.
If it weren't for Sinful Angel, his attitude towards Li Chonglou would probably have been the same as the two assassins before.
However, he now clasped his hands and said solemnly, "Brother Li Chonglou, if I may ask, what are you doing here?"
Hearing him speak, this guy must have dealt with many people from China, otherwise, he wouldn't have learned this greeting style unique to China.
Li Chonglou glanced at him indifferently, then shifted his gaze to Sinful Angel.
Among this group, only this guy showed a hint of respect towards him.
"This is indeed the location of the Divine Thunder Source, but those without sufficient strength need not enter. Going there would be suicide."
Everyone's expressions immediately changed.
Li Chonglou continued, "The ones chasing you are not people from Black Net, but the islanders of Thunder Magnetic Island."
Everyone's expressions changed again.
"As for why I am here, it's very simple, I am breaking the seal of the forbidden area."
At Li Chonglou's signal, Elder An had Old Lin and the other two actively stimulate their attributes, revealing themselves before the crowd.
Although the crowd could still not see the array spirit, they could clearly see something continuously impacting the two clusters of special auras.
What kind of technique is this?
The remaining three peak experts at the seventh realm exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
Noticing this, Li Chonglou secretly rejoiced. This was the effect he wanted!
From the moment he met Sinful Angel, he realized that in the eyes of these people, he was no longer an ordinary cultivator at the fifth realm.
And since he couldn't move for the time being, why not forge an identity?
After all, all the assassins present were foreigners, and no one knew his situation in China!
Li Chonglou said calmly, "The Divine Thunder Source will only appear after the seal of the forbidden area is broken. I can't get away right now. Those of you who want to enter can do so after passing the test."
With a special technique and a detached tone,
Li Chonglou's image as an elder suddenly solidified.
However, they were not fools. Wolverine asked with a hint of doubt, "Brother Li, what is the forbidden area seal?"
"You can understand it as a method used by the islanders of Thunder Magnetic Island to seal the Divine Thunder Source. Without breaking it, the Divine Thunder Source will not appear."
Li Chonglou continued, "But don't worry, I won't snatch the Divine Thunder Source from you."
"Why?"
Wolverine subconsciously retorted, but regretted it as soon as he spoke.
The image Li Chonglou was currently projecting was undoubtedly that of an aloof expert, and combined with what the two assassins had said earlier.
His strength might be above theirs!
Perhaps he was a powerhouse at the eighth realm!
His question carried a clear hint of doubt, and if it caused the elder to become displeased, it wouldn't be a good thing!
"I have no use for the Divine Thunder Source. My main purpose here is for these islanders."
Saying this, a fierce killing intent flashed in Li Chonglou's eyes.
"Why do you think Black Net placed a mission on me?"
Everyone was stunned.
What did this mean? Wasn't it because of the Divine Thunder Source?
Li Chonglou said coldly, "You must have thought it was for the Divine Thunder Source, right? This is also his intention."
"You probably don't know this, but the master of Black Net was once an islander of Thunder Magnetic Island."
