Swoosh!
The iron chain was falling at an extremely fast speed. The end of the chain was like an agile little snake, wrapping around Ye Chen's wrist and body. Once he was entangled, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Shadow Spell!"
At that critical moment, Ye Chen's body started to turn illusionary. His real body shot out from the illusionary body, and that horrifying iron chain was actually locking onto a shadow-like Ye Chen. This shadow Ye Chen was still struggling, looking no different from a living person.
Crack!
The Punishment King did not just lock people down with the iron chain. After locking people down, it followed up with another attack. A blade light flashed in the air, and an illusionary executioner's blade sliced through the shadow Ye Chen's body. There was no blood, but the shadow Ye Chen was cut in half, disappearing into nothingness.
"So close!"
Dozens of miles away, Ye Chen's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He had not expected the Punishment King to be this powerful. If it were not for the fact that he had trained his shadow profound to near completion and trained his Separating Shadow Flying Art to mid rank profound sense flying art, even if he did not die, he would have been crippled by that attack.
"Hm? Shadow profound! "
A surprised look flashed through the Punishment King's eyes. Qing Liu being able to escape from the Executioner's attack was within his expectations, since she was not weaker than him in terms of power. It would be weird if she could not escape from it. Yan Fengfeng being able to escape from it was not that surprising, since the Blue Phoenix was one of the most powerful top rank beasts. Among the demi beasts, those demi beast primogenitors like the Blue Eyed White Wolf, and the Sky Tiger were all similar to the Blue Phoenix. Moreover, the Blue Phoenix's nirvana fire was inherited from the phoenix, so its destructive power was not hard to imagine.
As for that woman with the black bat wings on her back, she should have a perfect Demonic Human Bloodline and cultivated Devilish energy. But just that wasn't enough to escape his Executioner's chains. At the last moment, the Devilish energy that had surged out of her body was of an extremely high quality. It was definitely King level Devilish energy. Even if it was diluted, it still contained an inconceivable might. It had instantly increased her speed to a terrifying level. So it was understandable that she had been able to escape.
The only thing that moved the Punishment King was Ye Chen. The shadow profound was one of the most difficult profound to comprehend. In terms of speed, it might not be as fast as the wind profound, thunder profound, and speed profound, but in terms of speed, the shadow profound was above all of them. It was hard for him to imagine how Ye Chen had comprehended the shadow profound to this level, not far from minor completion.
"Interesting. I'll let you off this time."
The Punish King did not chase after her. His speed was the same as Qing Liu's, maybe even slightly weaker, so it would be impossible for him to catch up. However, the other three were not slow at all.
"Tian 'er, those youngsters are not to be underestimated."
The skinny elder said to the teenager next to him.
The teenager with the symbol on his forehead said coldly, "They indeed have some tricks up their sleeves." Yan Fengfeng's nirvana fire, Murong Qingcheng's demon power essence, and Ye Chen's shadow profound and defensive sword spell had piqued his interest.
"B * stard! How dare you wound me!"
The Shadow King, who had been blown away, was furious to the extreme. He was a half step king warrior, but he had been blown away by a peak level Mid Seas of Souls Realm insect. He had even been wounded a little, which was something that he could not accept. He felt like he had been slapped in the face, which made him extremely embarrassed.
"Shadow King, you trash! You can't even stop someone." The Iron Hand King took back his sight and looked at the Shadow King with disdain, adding fuel to the fire.
Ah!
The Shadow King roared as he pointed at the Iron Hand King and yelled, "Iron Hand King, say that again!"
"I said that you are a trash."
The Iron Hand King's tone was full of sarcasm.
"Die!"
The Shadow King's eyes turned bloodshot. He no longer cared about the fact that the Iron Hand King was stronger than him. He waved his hand and countless hidden weapons filled the sky. Each of them contained half step king Zhen Yuan and an invincible martial will. They shrouded the Iron Hand King.
"You're courting death!"
The Iron Hand King's eyes turned cold. He made a grabbing motion with his hand, and the sky full of hidden weapons were gathered into a ball before being pushed back at the Shadow King.
A few screams were heard as the Shadow King retreated a few steps without a single injury. However, the peak master level warriors of the Shadow Sect beside him were all killed.
"This is too cruel. The Shadow Sect is really unlucky this time. They've suffered a huge blow."
Many of the onlookers shook their heads. Top Grandmasters weren't as common as cabbages. There were as many of them as one wanted. This time, the Four Extremes Emperor's tomb had appeared, and all the fifth-grade sects had sent their top experts. Now that Shadow King was the only one left, one could imagine how big of a blow it was to the Shadow Sect.
As if a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head, the Shadow King woke up. Seeing that all the peak master level warriors of the Shadow Sect had been killed, he said with a venomous gaze, "Iron Hand King, you're so cruel. They didn't offend you. Aren't you afraid that my Shadow Sect will start a war with your Gu family?"
"The Tomb of Four Extreme Emperor has appeared. Life and death are up to fate. If your Shadow Sect really wants to start a war with my Gu family, my Gu family will be waiting. I'm just afraid that you won't dare."
The Iron Hand King was a bit angry earlier and didn't hold back. However, he couldn't admit that he was wrong. He could only walk this path to the end.
"Good, good! I, the Shadow King, will remember this. Your Gu family's experts better not run into me. Otherwise, not a single one will be left alive."
Shua!
Leaving behind a vicious sentence, the Shadow King's body disappeared with the wind.
"Huh! How dare you!"
The Iron Hand King waved his sleeves, feeling a bit regretful. It was true that he was not afraid of the Shadow King, but the Gu family warriors beside him were not him. They would definitely not be able to block out the Shadow King's attack. Because of a moment of anger, he had made a huge enemy.
"You guys, don't get too far away from me."
The Iron Hand King reminded the Gu family warriors.
…
Thousands of miles away in the deep part of the mountains, Ye Chen and the other four stopped.
"Is everyone okay?"
Qing Liu let out a breath secretly. It was very lucky that they were able to get out alive this time. Seven half step king warriors were not something to be messed with. As long as three of them attacked, the five of them would suffer a great loss. Luckily, Ye Chen had beaten back the Shadow King and bought them some time.
"Teacher, I'm fine."
Yan Fengfeng's face was a bit pale. The nirvana fire was her natal fire, and it was not endless. It would take a long time for her to recover.
"Senior, don't worry. Everyone is fine."
Ye Chen was in the most dangerous one, but he was also the one who had consumed the least amount of power. Yan Fengfeng had escaped with her nirvana fire, Murong Qingcheng had used her demon power essence, and he had used his shadow profound.
"Very good! Next, we will try to be careful and find the graveyard." Qing Liu looked around and said.
The forbidden place was huge and endless. The five did not know where they were in the forbidden place, so they could only rely on their instincts and take one step at a time.
Boom! Boom!
After walking for a long time, the five arrived at a thunder area.
"Perhaps this place is a spell? Such a powerful thunder!" Imprinted in their eyes was a dense black thundercloud with countless lightning bolts striking down. These lightning bolts had been amplified by the power of the array, and their might was frightening. That destructive aura was enough to make one's heart tremble. Even a half-step King couldn't ignore it.
"Look! There seems to be a human shadow inside! "
Lin Gaoming accidentally glanced over and gasped.
Qing Liu frowned, "Who is inside? Why is he not coming out yet?" As she spoke, she followed Lin Gaoming's gaze and looked over.
Ye Chen and the other two looked over as well.
Under the concentrated thunder and lightning attack, a human figure stood in the air, walking slowly in the sky.
What startled the five people was not this. What startled them was that this figure didn't have any protective true essence around his body. The thunder and lightning struck down on his head, forehead, chest, and back, nearly submerging him in a sea of thunder and lightning. But, they couldn't do anything to him. He was like a conductor, and the thunder and lightning followed his body and spilled onto the ground, splashing countless arcs of electricity.
"So powerful!"
Ye Chen gasped. He could tell that this person was not a Life and Death Realm warrior. He was just like Qing Liu, a half step king warrior. However, these thunder and lightning were close to the full power attack of a half step king warrior. Even a half step king warrior would have to use his protective Zhen yuan to block it out. However, this person could block it out with only his body. It was like his body was a conductor, able to ignore the thunder and lightning.
"It is him!"
Qing Liu blurted out.
"Senior Qing Liu, who is this person?" Ye Chen asked curiously.
Qing Liu said, "There are different levels among the half step king warriors. Although my power is not bad, I am still not at the top of the half step king warrior level. There are three top half step king warriors on this true spirit continent, and this person is one of them. He is called the Thunder Spirit King. He has the thunder spirit body, and his achievement in the thunder profound is very high. I heard that once he reaches the Life and Death Realm, he would be able to take down the thunder king from the thunder region and inherit the title of thunder king. Only he could ignore the thunder attack that was equivalent to half step king warrior level."
"Thunder Spirit King!"
Ye Chen had heard that among the half step king warriors, the Thunder Spirit King was one of the most powerful ones.
"The tomb of the Four Extreme Emperor had appeared, and almost all the half step king warriors had come out. We will have to be more careful. Although the Thunder Spirit King is cold, he would not kill innocent people. But if we encounter other half step king warriors, it would be hard to say."
Qing Liu was not worried about herself. She was worried about Yan Fengfeng and Ye Chen.
Ye Chen nodded. He could feel that this time was not the same as before. Normally, the enemies he encountered would not be much more powerful than him. Even if he could not beat them, he would be able to escape. But this time, the enemies were all half step king warriors. With his power right now, he could only fight with normal half step king warriors. The Ghost Wood King's power was slightly weaker than Qing Liu's. Without Yan Fengfeng and the other two, he would have to rely on his undying body to survive. But if it dragged on, the consequences would be unimaginable, since the zhen yuan of half step king warriors was way more powerful than him, and the undying body would consume yuan qi.
"It seems like I have to find a chance to increase my cultivation to Late Seas of Souls Realm. Otherwise, it would be too dangerous."
Ye Chen's cultivation was only one step away from Late Seas of Souls Realm. Perhaps he would be able to make it in the next second. Once he did, his zhen yuan would be at least thirty percent more powerful, and the quality of his zhen yuan would continue to increase as well. Most importantly, when he reached the Late Seas of Souls Realm, he would experience the state of being one with the nature for a short period of time.
