The Ghost Wood King fought against four of them at the same time, but he still could not take down Ye Chen. It made him realize that Ye Chen's power could not be judged by his cultivation.
Although the Ghost Wood King was not a top half step beast king, he was still one of the top ones among them. Normal half step beast kings would not be able to last until now, but Ye Chen with his peak level Mid Seas of Souls Realm cultivation could not only handle it, but also threaten him from time to time. If he was a little bit careless, he would be wounded, which made him reevaluate Ye Chen.
If Ye Chen managed to reach Late Seas of Souls Realm, then he would be able to fight against him.
Although he was in the middle of an intense battle, the Ghost Wood King still let out his soul power from time to time. The arrival of all the half step king warriors had been sensed by him.
He took back his beast power, and the Ghost Wood King stopped attacking Ye Chen. That huge ball of vines had also sunk back into the ground. However, it did not mean that those vines were useless. At the critical moment, the vines with enough life force could trap everyone within miles. As for whether or not it would be broken through, it would be another story.
Ye Chen was not stupid. Although he could not sense what was going on outside with his dual swords, the expression on the Ghost Wood King's face had told him that something had changed.
Indeed, when Ye Chen let out his soul power, he immediately knew why the Ghost Wood King had stopped attacking.
"The Gold Absolute King and the Punish King's power are not weaker than Qing Liu's. Compared to the Ghost Wood King, they are even more powerful. Just these two alone are not something that the Ghost Wood King and that dwarf elder can compete with. Adding the other five half step king warriors and twenty top master level warriors, if they are against us, we will definitely lose."
Ye Chen's expression turned serious.
The situation right now was not good for them, and they might become the target of everyone.
Shoo! Shoo!
Coincidentally, Ye Chen and Qing Liu flew to the side of Murong Fengfeng and the other two at the same time. They then pulled out some distance to avoid being surrounded.
The Ghost Wood King and the dwarf elder also didn't have the time to bother the five of them. They also kept their distance and waited to see what would happen.
In just a few blinks of an eye, the half-step Kings and peak master level masters who had rushed over from all directions stopped dozens of li away. They all had different expressions on their faces. Some were expressionless and cold, some had a playful expression and a fierce glint in their eyes, and some were just watching from the sidelines, as if they didn't want to get involved easily.
"So many half step Kings!" Mysterious Peak Leader Lin Gaoming sucked in a cold breath.
Qing Liu said with a low voice, "There are seven demi king warriors in total. The most powerful one among them should be the Punishment King from the prison martial school, followed by the Gold Absolute King from the Evil King Martial School. These two are not weaker than me in terms of power. Among the remaining five, the Iron Hand King from the Gu family in the East Royal City would be the strongest."
As the former leader of the Mysterious Martial School, other than some of the newly born demi king warriors and those who had not been in the martial world for a long time, Qing Liu almost knew everyone.
"Who is this half step King on the left?" Ye Chen glanced at the seven demi king warriors and eventually fixed his eyes on the elder in brown on the left.
Qing Liu glanced at the elder on the left and said, "This person is the Shadow King from the rank 5 martial school in the Sky Martial Region. What's wrong?"
Ye Chen said, "Among the demi king warriors, his qi is the weakest. When the situation is dangerous, we can choose to break through from his side."
Qing Liu did not know how Ye Chen judged the qi, but she had a different opinion, "The Shadow King might be the weakest in terms of battling power, but his speed is not weaker than the elder. His battling style is also very strange, which makes him hard to deal with. It will not be easy to break through from his side."
"Of course it will not be easy. But in comparison, it would be easier for me to deal with these fast but not powerful demi king warriors."
Right now, Ye Chen's power was not weaker than normal demi king warriors. Even the Ghost Wood King would not be able to hurt him. The Shadow King's qi was the weakest among all the demi king warriors there, so choosing him was something that Ye Chen had no other choice. It was not that Ye Chen did not care about the Shadow King.
Qing Liu thought about it and agreed with him. Ye Chen's defensive sword spell was already extremely fast. It would not be possible for him to dodge the attack with his speed.
"Haha, Gopher King, you are a fly that never bites a seamless egg. What has attracted you here this time? And even made you fight a big battle." It was the Iron Hand King from the Gu family in the East Emperor City. Qing Liu did not know the Ghost Wood King and the elder, but he did. He had also fought with the elder, who was the Gopher King before, so he knew his habits.
The Gopher King forced a smile and said, "Iron Hand King, you seem to know me well. But what I want to do has nothing to do with you, right?"
To be honest, the fire pear tree was too tempting for him. He would rather spend more effort than to tell the truth about the fire pear tree being with Ye Chen. Because once he did, the chance of him getting the tree would be even smaller. He did not believe that Ye Chen had been with Qing Liu the whole time.
Whooo!
Hearing him, Qing Liu let out a breath. It seemed like the Gopher King would not tell the truth anymore. Indeed, if he did, it would mean giving up.
The Iron Hand King rolled his eyes and laughed, "You have two demi king warriors on your side, and they only have one. Then, it would not be you who got the treasure. Therefore, you guys are planning to rob it. And this is the forbidden forest, there are a lot of spirit trees here. The treasure would basically be spirit trees. How could it be a mid rank spirit tree for you to rob it? It must be a top rank one. Gopher King, am I right?"
The Iron Hand King was very cunning. With just a few words, he had already explained everything, which made Qing Liu, Ye Chen, and the rest of the people's expressions change.
The Gopher King chuckled. Since they had already guessed it, there was no point in hiding it.
"Let's go!"
Qing Liu knew the Iron Hand King's personality. He was very greedy, so it would not be good for them to stay.
"Mysterious King, the treasure should belong to the right person. Leave the top rank spirit tree behind and leave." The Iron Hand King was not afraid of the Mysterious School. There were two king warriors in the Gu family of the East Emperor City. One was the East King, and the other was the Destruction King. If the two worked together, even if they could not win against Xuanhou, they could at least make her feel a bit scared. Plus, this was the forbidden place. As long as they did not kill her, Xuanhou would not look for trouble with them.
"Iron Hand King, this is only your opinion. You say we have the top rank spirit tree, so we have it?" Qing Liu said with a low voice.
"Whether you do or not, take out the thing in your ring and we will know."
The Punishment King crossed his arms in front of his chest and said lightly.
"Yeah, take it out for everyone to see. If you don't have it, we will naturally not look for trouble with you."
"There are so many of us here. You have to give us an explanation."
The attraction of a top rank spirit tree was too huge. It was ten times more valuable than a semi extreme rank weapon. If a martial school had a top rank spirit tree, their overall power would increase by another level. Most importantly, a top rank spirit tree's lifespan was at least ten thousand years. In other words, in the future, the top rank spirit tree's usefulness would be limitless.
"If you want us to open our ring, it is not impossible. But, you guys have to open your ring as well. In this moving forbidden place, we might not be the only ones with treasures."
Ye Chen saw that they had become the target of everyone, so he took a deep breath and said calmly.
"Brat, we are talking. Since when did you have the right to interrupt? Are you tired of living?" The Iron Hand King had a creepy look on his face. He would not kill the Mysterious King Qing Liu, but it did not mean that he would not kill Ye Chen. A mere peak level Mid Seas of Souls Realm warrior dared to bargain with them.
"Iron Hand King, who are you trying to scare? Once we get out of the forbidden place, I will let you know how high the sky is." Qing Liu had never been this frustrated before. A killing intent appeared in her eyes.
"Hehe, I will be waiting for you."
The Iron Hand King did not care at all.
"Shadow King, move!"
This place was not suitable for them to stay for long, so Qing Liu brought Ye Chen and the rest flying toward the Shadow King.
"Sorry, this way is blocked."
The Shadow King would not let go of this opportunity. He was the fastest, so his chance of getting the top rank spirit tree might not be any lower than the Punishment King and the Gold Absolute King.
"Even if it is blocked, it has to be blocked!"
Ye Chen did not want to waste time with him at all. He pointed out his sword finger and the gold sword and the green longsword took out of their scabbards. Each of them split into five, turning into ten sword shadows that shot toward the Shadow King. Because of their speed and the sudden attack, even if the Shadow King had a fast reaction, he was still one step late.
Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions were heard, and the Shadow King's whole body was blown away. Blood leaked out from the corner of his mouth.
Qing Liu was only a bit slower than Ye Chen. She waved her hand and that crystal-like palm power blew out all of the top master level warriors that the Shadow King had brought. It was like swatting flies, so effortlessly.
"Let's go!"
Qing Liu's protective Zhen yuan covered Lin Gaoming while Yan Fengfeng turned into her Blue Phoenix form. The sword wings on Ye Chen's back flapped intensely while a black light flashed once on Murong Qingcheng's body. The four of them used their highest speed to break out of the encirclement. Within a blink of an eye, they were already dozens of miles away.
"Where do you think you are going?"
The Iron Hand King lifted up his right hand. A black metal shine appeared on his palm as he threw out a palm attack toward Ye Chen and the other four.
Boom!
This palm attack contained two types of profound, which were the gold profound and the earth profound. The sky darkened as a massive iron hand grabbed toward the five.
"Landing Spell!"
Qing Liu was a demi king warrior after all. She knew that these people would not let them leave easily. So, while flying, she had already started to make a spell. The second the massive iron hand attacked, a crystal palm print landed from the sky, pressing down on the iron hand.
"Punishment Kill!"
The Iron Hand King's attack had been canceled out, but there was still an even more powerful Punishment King behind him. The Punishment King's attack was the same as the Punishment King's. He formed a spell with both of his hands, and the sound of iron chains came from the surreal space. Something shocking happened. In the deep of the surreal space, ten iron chains landed from the sky, locking onto the five wrists. It was not hard to guess that being locked by these iron chains would not be a good thing.
"Punishment King, how dare you?"
Qing Liu's face was full of evil intent. This Punishment Kill was the famous punishment martial art of the Punishment King. Once locked by the iron chains, one would be no better than a criminal.
"Mysterious Escape!"
Her Zhen yuan burst out, and a blurry door appeared in front of her. Once the door appeared, Qing Liu brought Lin Gaoming and flew in. When they reappeared, they were already fifty miles away. It was a real instantaneous movement, and there was no trace of movement.
However, Qing Liu was very worried. She and Lin Gaoming had escaped, but there were still Yan Fengfeng and Ye Chen chasing after them.
"Nirvana Fire!"
Yan Fengfeng, who had turned into her blue phoenix form, flapped her wings. The aggressive nirvana fire attacked toward the iron chains in the surreal space. The iron chains were burned by the fire, and a part of them was cut off.
"Murong, you can escape by yourself. I have a way!"
There was no time for Zhen yuan sound transmission, so Ye Chen talked to Murong directly with his soul. It was like they were connected, and it was a method that only he could master.
Although Murong Qingcheng was worried, she knew that Ye Chen had said it with confidence. If she stayed, she would only drag them down.
Her demon power essence poured into the black wings on her back. Murong Qingcheng's speed had reached beyond demi king warrior level. She could travel hundreds of miles within a second, and the iron chains were only locking onto a shadow.
