He knew that someone would enter this forest to search for him sooner or later, so Xiao Chen didn't dare waste any time. By relying on the assistance of medicinal pills and the formidable strength of his Tempered Combat Body, Xiao Chen had almost recovered in merely an hour.
Even though he couldn't be considered to have recovered to his peak state, he couldn't be bothered about all of that now. Xiao Chen stood up and spat out a mouthful of foul air while a wisp of icy coldness flashed through his eyes. He'd already made the decision to break out of the encirclement.
Breaking out of the encirclement was his only choice. He would die sooner or later if he stayed in this forest, so he might as well risk it all.
Right when Xiao Chen was thinking like this, five faint auras arrived intermittently from his left. These five auras were very weak, and he couldn't sense them clearly. Obviously, someone was intentionally suppressing their auras with all their might.
It was Xiao Chen's senses that were extremely sharp that allowed him to capture these auras. When he sensed these five auras, Xiao Chen's figure flashed, and he silently hid behind a pile of weeds at the side.
In terms of ability to conceal his aura, Xiao Chen didn't dare say that he was at the top, but he absolutely surpassed 99% of the cultivators. If Xiao Chen intentionally concealed his aura, then ordinary cultivators would be utterly unable to notice him at all.
Xiao Chen waited patiently for the arrival of these five people. Not long after, about the time it took to drink a cup of tea, the five figures finally appeared in front of him.
Just like the seven Saints from before, these five people wore black robes as well. However, their cultivations weren't very high. The person in the lead was a Half-Saint while the other four were at the Dao Emperor Realm.
Such a small group of five was naturally not dangerous to Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen didn't act rashly. After all, who knew if there were any other groups in the surroundings? It wouldn't be good to act rashly and alert them.
Xiao Chen waited patiently for the five of them to ceaselessly approach him, and he only chose to make a move when they were less than 10 meters away from him.
It wasn't an arena battle now, so he couldn't hold back at all. So, Xiao Chen went all out as soon as he attacked.
The Sword Domain and Laws of Gravity erupted at the same time, and these two forces instantly enveloped the five of them. The dual suppression of the Laws of Gravity and the Sword Domain caused their expressions to turn grim at the first possible moment.
The sudden appearance of the Sword Domain and Laws of Gravity instantly suppressed almost half of their strength. Their expressions immediately changed when they faced such a sudden and unexpected event, and the Half-Saint in the lead even shouted at the first possible moment. "Release the signal …."
However, it was still too late. Right when this Half-Saint had just spoken and hadn't even finished speaking, Xiao Chen's figure had leaped out from the grass at the side. He held the Dustless Sword tightly in his hand as he casually slashed out with four strands of Nine Sifting Sword Qi that shot directly towards the four Dao Emperor Realm cultivators. At the same time, he pointed forward with his left hand, and the Fishbowel Sword Finger was instantly executed and shot directly towards the Half-Saint in the lead.
. at practically the exact same moment. Xiao Chen executed a Martial Dao attack. Four strands of Nine Sips Sword Qi and a Fish Intestine Sword Finger.
Five attacks were launched at the same time, and they instantly struck the five of them. They didn't even have the time to let out shrill cries before this group of five was directly annihilated by Xiao Chen.
It wasn't difficult for Xiao Chen to kill ordinary Dao Emperor Realm cultivators right now, and it was even to the extent that even Half-Saints wouldn't be able to resist Xiao Chen.
Moreover, Xiao Chen had launched a surprise attack just now. At the same time, he was suppressed by the Laws of Gravity and the Sword Domain. So, it was naturally impossible for them to be a match for Xiao Chen when they weren't on guard.
After he killed the five of them in one go, Xiao Chen directly arrived before them. After he searched their bodies, he noticed that they didn't have any personal belongings at all. Every single one of them only had a signal flare. Besides that, they didn't have anything else, and they didn't even have a spatial ring.
They really are damned servants. They didn't even bring a spatial ring. Looks like they really are unafraid of death.
These people were clearly aware that they wouldn't be able to return this time. Regardless of whether they were able to successfully kill Xiao Chen in the end, they would definitely die. So, they didn't even bring a spatial ring with them.
He couldn't find anything that could prove their identities, nor did he have the slightest evidence. Even though Xiao Chen was slightly disappointed by this, he didn't stay and immediately left.
He obtained five signal flares from the five of them. They might be useful, so Xiao Chen took them with him.
Xiao Chen continued to move through the dense forest. All along the way, Xiao Chen was extremely cautious. A few hours passed, and the sky was gradually darkening. During this period of time, Xiao Chen killed another group of five. Similarly, besides the signal flares, these five people had nothing else on them.
There was no way to prove the identities of these people, so it was difficult to determine who the person behind the scenes was.
The person behind the scenes hid very well and didn't leave behind any clues. Of course, this was probably also because of the Heavenly Yin Yang Sect. After all, if the Heavenly Yin Yang Sect found out, the person behind the scenes would definitely not have a good ending.
Since he couldn't find any clues, Xiao Chen simply couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore. The most important thing now was to think of a way to save his life. If he lost his life, then wouldn't everything else be meaningless?
Xiao Chen walked all the way from the depths of the dense forest to the periphery. Along the way, he had been deliberately avoiding the groups of black-clothed cultivators. These people were all here to search for him.
Xiao Chen finally arrived at the edge of the dense forest. However, after secretly observing for a while, Xiao Chen discovered that the seven Saints from before hadn't entered the dense forest. Instead, they were standing guard outside the dense forest. As a result, no matter where he tried to break out of the encirclement, he would definitely be discovered by the seven of them. At that time, the seven of them would definitely surround him and kill him immediately.
If he was surrounded and killed this time, he probably wouldn't be as lucky as last time. After all, the threat of seven Saints was no joke.
Xiao Chen pondered for a while as he hid in the shadows. In the end, he was unable to come up with a sure-fire plan. In the end, Xiao Chen gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Whatever, I can only risk it."
With that, Xiao Chen withdrew a signal flare from his Spatial Ring.
If he wanted to break out of the encirclement, the best method Xiao Chen could think of now was to draw the seven Saints away. The method was very simple, and it was naturally to use these signal flares.
Every single one of the two groups of black-clothed cultivators that he'd killed earlier had a signal flare on them. As a result, there was no need to explain the use of the signal flare. They were definitely used to report to him after discovering him.
With the sealing charm array in place, the Voice-transmitting Talisman was no longer of any use in this dense forest. The only way to communicate with each other was through ordinary signal flares. Therefore, Xiao Chen planned to use this method to lure away the seven Saints who had been guarding outside.
