This heavenly ghost also joined the battle. At the same time, the other heavenly ghosts in the Night Eclipse tribe also noticed Xiao Chen's powerful combat strength.
Mu Feng's appearance didn't alarm the other heavenly ghosts in the Night Eclipse tribe because one heavenly ghost was enough to suppress Mu Feng. But now, it was different. Xiao Chen's combat strength had obviously surpassed that of a heavenly ghost. One heavenly ghost alone couldn't possibly be a match for Xiao Chen. Therefore, the other heavenly ghosts also rushed here.
They sensed that there were no less than ten heavenly ghosts rushing here. At the same time, more heavenly ghosts appeared from the depths of the Night Eclipse tribe. They couldn't delay any longer and needed to escape as soon as possible. But before they left, there was one more thing to do, and that was to kill a heavenly ghost for fun.
Xiao Chen locked his gaze on the Heavenly Ghost in front of him. The Heavenly Ghost's heart skipped a beat when Xiao Chen locked his gaze on it. An instinctive fear instantly shrouded its entire body. It could clearly feel from Xiao Chen's gaze that the human before it wanted to kill it.
He was already surrounded and the other heavenly ghosts of the Night Eclipse tribe were rushing here. Under such circumstances, this human still wanted to kill him? This was absolutely ridiculous, but the heavenly ghost's intuition told him that this wasn't ridiculous. Xiao Chen had the ability to kill him, and it was an instant kill.
He retreated almost instinctively, but it was obviously too late to retreat now. With a sneer on his face, Xiao Chen pointed his finger and shouted softly. "Tai 'e Sword Finger."
Xiao Chen didn't hold back in this attack. A sword ray as thick as a mountain shot out from Xiao Chen's finger and instantly engulfed the heavenly ghost.
In order to kill this heavenly ghost in one blow, this attack consumed more than half of Xiao Chen's spiritual power. With such a price to pay, its power naturally couldn't be underestimated.
"Ah …" Blood-curdling screeches erupted from the thick blade radiance. Not only that Sky Ghost, but also a dozen Earth Mirror Reading Ghosts were also caught in the blast.
After exterminating a Heavenly Ghost and a total of 13 Earth Mirror Reading Ghosts with a single finger, the sword radiance dissipated and six Dao Insight Seeds floated in front of Xiao Chen. With a wave of his hand, Xiao Chen kept the six Dao Insight Seeds into his pouch and turned to leave.
Xiao Chen was about to escape. The Mirror Reading Ghost couldn't stop him at all. Not far away, the other Heavenly Ghosts, who had witnessed Xiao Chen kill a Heavenly Ghost with a single strike, were also shocked. It wasn't until Xiao Chen had broken out of the encirclement that the Heavenly Ghosts who had rushed over snapped out of their daze. Immediately, they bellowed, "Human, where do you think you're going?!"
More than a dozen Heavenly Ghosts rushed toward Xiao Chen, but unfortunately, Xiao Chen had already broken out of their encirclement. His figure transformed into a blade ray and fled into the distance.
Not only did he save Mu Feng, but he also killed as many as 25 Earth Mirror Reading Ghosts and one Heavenly Ghost by himself. Watching Xiao Chen leave, the dozen Heavenly Ghosts snarled with gloomy expressions.
"Damn human."
"This human is so strong. He actually killed a Heavenly Ghost with a single strike."
"Hmph. In my opinion, an attack like that consumes a lot of energy. I'm sure he can't perform it continuously."
"No matter what, the humans who entered the Five Elemental Dao Palace this time can't be underestimated. Although the number is much smaller than before, the quality has improved a lot. Now that Sir Chief is in the critical period of his breakthrough, we can't afford to make any mistakes. It's better for us to increase the strength of our guards."
"Yes, we'll do as you say. We'll wait for Sir Chief to come out of seclusion."
The chief of the Night Eclipse tribe did not pursue Xiao Chen. Now that he had reached the critical period of his breakthrough, he would enter the Ghost King Realm. With a Ghost King, the Night Eclipse tribe would no longer need to hide in the periphery. They could truly set foot in the core area of the Five Elemental Dao Palace and compete for territory with the truly large tribes.
Due to the Night Eclipse tribe's leader's breakthrough, the tribe did not hunt humans. Under normal circumstances, every time the Daoist Palace of Five Elements opened and humans from the Heavenly Chen Continent entered the Daoist Palace of Five Elements, large Ghost Remembrance tribes like the Night Eclipse tribe would take the initiative to hunt humans.
This time, the Night Eclipse tribe had not done so. The reason was that their chief was in the critical period of his breakthrough and they could not afford to make any mistakes.
Compared to hunting humans, breaking through to the Ghost King Realm was obviously more important to the Night Eclipse tribe.
After rushing out of the Night Eclipse tribe's territory and leaving the plains, Xiao Chen directly rushed into the forest. He could no longer feel the aura of the Sky Ghosts. Only then did Xiao Chen let out a sigh of relief.
With Xiao Chen's strength, it would not be a problem for him to face one Heavenly Ghost alone. He could even fight two Heavenly Ghosts. However, if he were to be surrounded by more than a dozen Heavenly Ghosts, it would be dangerous. Furthermore, the Night Eaters had more than just a dozen Heavenly Ghosts; there were hundreds of them. As such, Xiao Chen had never thought of facing the Night Eaters head-on. Of course, he would consider a sneak attack.
He was safe for the time being. Mu Feng should have met up with Duo Fu and the others.
Walking through the forest, Xiao Chen rushed toward the valley where the Duo Fu tribe was located. While Xiao Chen was rushing, he inadvertently passed by a small lake. The lake water was clear, but at this moment, there was a young girl bathing in the lake.
It was a complete coincidence that he appeared there. When Xiao Chen appeared beside the lake, the young girl in the lake caught sight of Xiao Chen. Her face immediately flushed red and she let out an earth-shaking scream.
He felt helpless. Is this considered peeping? But in all honesty, he did not do it on purpose. Looking at the blushing young girl who was hiding in the water, Xiao Chen rubbed his nose in embarrassment.
"Err, He Lian, I really did not do it on purpose. Go ahead and bathe. I will wait for you over there."
Xiao Chen recognized the young girl. Her name was He Lian. They had first met in the City of the King of Medicine. She was a Bai Zhan Peak genius and a disciple of Nine Firmaments Palace.
It was a completely coincidental encounter. Hearing Xiao Chen's words, He Lian did not respond. As for Xiao Chen, he quickly retreated to a spot not far away and casually leaned against a large tree.
They did not have to wait for long. After just over 100 breaths' worth of time, He Lian had put on her clothes and was standing before Xiao Chen. Looking at He Lian, who was still blushing, Xiao Chen explained, "Err, I really did not see anything."
Hearing Xiao Chen's explanation, He Lian lowered her head and did not reply. After that, amid the awkwardness, Xiao Chen led He Lian towards the Duo Fu tribe. However, along the way, Xiao Chen casually asked, "By the way, He Lian, why is there a butterfly birthmark on your waist?"
"Xiao Chen, you dare say you did not see anything?!" Hearing Xiao Chen's words, He Lian bellowed.
