The black shadow emitted a strong aura of death as it pounced over with a piercing shriek.
"It's a battle corpse!"
Chen Nan shook his right hand, and the Chaotic Universe Sword appeared in his hand.
A white sword radiance shot out of his body as Chen Nan swung his arm and slashed forward.
"Puff …"
Black blood splattered as the battle corpse was cut in half by Chen Nan's sword. A rotten smell filled the air, and the corpse couldn't be more dead.
"This is just an ordinary battle corpse. Its strength was at most the fifth level of the Qi Dao when it was alive," Du Lang said. "The Imperial Corpse Sect must have placed it on the hillside to act as a guard."
Chen Nan nodded. "Try to hide. There must be more powerful battle corpses ahead. It's best not to be discovered by them."
The two of them were like ghosts, rushing up the mountain at an extremely fast speed.
Due to their previous experience, they were very careful. They weren't discovered by other battle corpses along the way.
They were only discovered when they were less than five hundred meters away from the hilltop by a battle corpse that had reached the first level of the Imperial Dao when it was alive.
Its strength had reached the Imperial Dao when it was alive. After its death, its corpse had been refined by the Imperial Corpse Sect, making it tougher than when it was alive. However, the strength in its body was far from what it was when it was alive. At most, it could unleash the power of the ninth level of the Qi Dao.
Chen Nan slashed down with his sword and sent the battle corpse flying dozens of meters away. However, it only hurt some of its flesh and didn't kill it at all.
"This guy's skin is too tough."
Chen Nan looked at the Chaotic Universe Sword, which could cut through iron like mud, and was a little surprised.
Seeing that the battle corpse was charging over again, Du Lang said, "I'll imprison it with my vital energy. You're in charge of killing it."
"Okay!"
Chen Nan agreed.
"Buzz …"
The void vibrated slightly. Du Lang waved his hands, and a white vital energy gushed out and enveloped the battle corpse in an instant.
Although this battle corpse was the corpse of a Imperial Dao expert, its attack power had been greatly reduced after being refined. Now that it was imprisoned by Du Lang's vital energy, it couldn't move at all.
Chen Nan spat and swung the Chaotic Universe Sword at the battle corpse's neck.
"Clang …"
When the sharp blade struck the battle corpse, the sound of metal clashing could be heard, but it only cut a centimeter deep.
"I don't believe that I can't kill you."
Chen Nan pushed his True Qi with all his might and waved his Primeval Chaos Sword again and again.
One sword strike!
Two swords!
Three strikes!
"Pfff …"
Black and stinking blood splattered in the air as the headless corpse fell to the ground, its head rolling more than ten meters away.
At this moment, Chen Nan finally understood why Du Lang was entangled by Jiang Haotian's battle corpse.
The battle corpse in front of him was a first-tier Dao Controlling Realm warrior, but it was already so difficult to kill. The one fighting Poison Wolf was a second-tier Dao Controlling Realm warrior. With his strength alone, it would indeed take him a lot of effort to kill it.
"Motherf * cker, his resistance is too strong." Chen Nan scolded as he pointed up and said, "We're close to the top of the mountain. Slow down. Otherwise, you'll disturb the battle corpses in front. If you start fighting, the people from the Imperial Corpse Sect will be alerted."
Vicious Wolf nodded.
The two of them crouched and hid behind the trees as they sneaked toward the top of the mountain.
When they were about fifty meters away from the top of the mountain, they could vaguely see the buildings above. However, at this moment —
"Roar …"
A loud roar shook the sky as a battle corpse suddenly jumped up, waving its claws and opening its bloody mouth to pounce at Chen Nan.
Chen Nan's expression changed drastically. This battle corpse was at least a third-tier Dao Controlling Realm warrior when it was alive.
Although it had been dead for many years, the remaining power in its body still had the explosive power of a tenth-tier Dao Controlling Realm warrior. As for its physical body, it had been tempered by the Imperial Corpse Sect and was even more difficult to be injured by weapons.
"Whoosh …"
Sword Qi swept out. Chen Nan raised his sword and slashed without saying a word.
"Bang!"
Activating the Primeval Chaos Sword with the power of the Sky-Rending Hand, Chen Nan's sword was blocked by the battle corpse's claws. Immediately, sparks flew and an ear-piercing sound was heard. The battle corpse was sent flying more than ten meters away, howling endlessly.
Du Lang's expression was also ugly. He said, "This battle corpse is at least twice as strong as the one I killed during the day."
"Same old way. You restrain it and I'll kill it," Chen Nan raised his sword and said.
"Okay!"
Du Lang used the God Slayer's Seven Steps and rushed behind the battle corpse like a bolt of lightning. He grabbed the battle corpse's arms from behind and stomped on its back. A glaring light shrouded the battle corpse, making it difficult to move.
At this point, Chen Nan couldn't care less about alarming the Imperial Corpse Sect people.
His whole body was glaring with golden light, and his combat strength was raised to the extreme. The Primeval Chaos Sword in his hand cut through the sky and slashed at the battle corpse's head.
"Clang!"
The sword seemed to have hit black iron, and sparks flew everywhere.
"Don't hit its head. Its skull is hard. Hit its neck!" Du Lang grimaced and said strenuously.
"Let me try!"
Chen Nan waved his Killing Sword and slashed at the battle corpse's neck.
The result was the same as hitting its head. The sound of hard objects colliding was also heard, and it was difficult to cut through.
Touching the backpack on his back, Chen Nan thought of using the Jade Lotus Throne, but he held back. He didn't know how many strong enemies were behind him, and the Jade Lotus Throne was his trump card. It wasn't good to use it too early.
"Brother, hurry up. I can't hold on any longer!" Du Lang shouted.
Chen Nan stomped on the ground and circulated his True Qi, increasing his combat strength again. The Primeval Chaos Sword was like a golden lightning bolt that cut through the sky and slashed at the battle corpse's neck.
This was the first time he used his most powerful attack since he reached the tenth stage of Qi Dao.
"Tch …"
Smelly blood splattered as the Killing Sword cut half a centimeter deep.
The battle corpse seemed to be able to feel pain. It struggled wildly and let out ear-piercing screams that were so loud that it almost broke people's eardrums.
"Scream my ass!"
Chen Nan cursed and waved his Primeval Chaos Sword. After nine slashes, the battle corpse's head flew far away. The headless corpse fell to the ground, and black blood spurted out. The scene was extremely disgusting.
However, at the same time, a large group of people rushed over from the top of the mountain.
The young man in the lead was actually Jiang Haotian!
He didn't use the Disguise Technique at the moment, so he was no longer using his previous appearance. It was his original appearance, but Chen Nan could still recognize him at a glance.
"Haha, Chen Nan, you've got guts. How dare you come to my Imperial Corpse Sect with just the two of you?"
Chen Nan gritted his teeth as he stared at Jiang Haotian, who was laughing wantonly in front of him. He pointed his Killing Sword at the sky and said coldly, "Let Qingqing go and I'll spare your life."
"What a joke!"
Jiang Haotian sneered. "You really don't know what's good for you. I only need to shake the bell in my hand, and the battle corpse army of my Imperial Corpse Sect will be enough to eat the two of you as prey. If you're willing to kneel down and kowtow to me eight times, I might leave your corpse intact. I'll refine you into a battle corpse and make you and Su Qingqing into a pair of dead mandarin ducks. How about that? Hahahaha … "
"Go to hell!"
Chen Nan roared and jumped into the air. His entire body was glaring with golden light, and his killing intent shook the void. He slashed down at Jiang Haotian's head!
