Tyrannical Soul Temple, Heaven's Roar Palace.
Someone whispered something into Lin Xuan's ear in the palace, and Lin Xuan's expression changed drastically. He was stunned.
Sensing Lin Xuan's expression, Lin Xiaotian frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Hearing this, Lin Xuan quickly regained his senses. He looked at Lin Xiaotian in disbelief and said, "The person I sent … has been killed."
"Do you know who did it?" Lin Xiaotian asked with a frown. He did not believe that Xiao Chen could kill a late-stage Saint King.
Lin Xuan pondered for a moment and shook his head. "I don't know. Half a month has passed, and there's still no news of Li Shabing. I sent someone to investigate, but the result was that he was killed. From the bloodstains, he was killed less than four hours ago."
"Could it be Xiao Chen?" someone guessed with a frown.
"With Xiao Chen's strength, it's impossible for him to kill Li Shabing. I've checked Li Shabing's wounds. The person who killed him is definitely stronger than Li Shabing. It should be some kind of powerful sword technique," the guard who whispered in Lin Xuan's ear said respectfully.
Lin Xiaotian tapped his finger on the table and frowned. "If it's not Xiao Chen, who could it be? Who dares to kill someone from Tyrannical Soul Temple? "
"Although it can't be Xiao Chen, it must be related to him. Since Li Shabing is in the Scarlet Cloud Mountain Range, Xiao Chen must be there as well. It just so happens that he's in the west," an expert concluded.
Lin Xiaotian nodded and said, "Continue to investigate Xiao Chen's whereabouts. It doesn't matter if he killed Li Shabing or not. We can't let him live!"
"Yes! I'll go investigate now, "the guard said respectfully and left the palace.
"Xiao Chen, that stinking brat, dares to go against me. I'll turn him into ashes!" Lin Xiaotian said coldly, his deep eyes flashing with killing intent.
..
"That's the Saint Fire Mountain." On a certain mountain peak, Xiao Chen muttered to himself as he looked at a towering mountain peak not far away.
Xiao Chen had only found out the exact location of the Sacred Fire Mountain Range after asking around, but he didn't dare to continue approaching it because the Sacred Fire Palace guards were guarding the Sacred Fire Mountain Range.
If someone approached them for no reason and was discovered, they would be considered to be here to steal the Holy Fire Mysterious Crystal Source and would be hunted down by the people of the Holy Fire Palace.
However, with the power behind the Sacred Fire Palace, no one had the guts to steal the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Source, unless they had a death wish.
The mountain peak was thousands of feet high and majestic. The Sacred Fire Mountain Range and the Sacred Fire Palace were named after the Sacred Fire Black Crystal Source.
The Sacred Fire Palace was built in the Sacred Fire Mountain Range. On the left side was the peak of the mountain. Between the two peaks was a cliff that was thousands of feet high. The Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Essence was collected at the bottom of the cliff. Someone had dug out a cave at the bottom of the cliff. There were more than a hundred guards around the cave. It could be said to be very strict.
"The Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Source is nurtured by heaven and earth. It takes three years to nurture one drop of the Crystal Source. It is very precious. If you want to ask for the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Source from the Sacred Fire Palace, you must have a treasure that can tempt them in exchange. Otherwise, you will just be snubbed." Looking at the Sacred Fire Mountain not far away, Xiao Chen muttered to himself. He had never thought of asking for it, not to mention that the Sacred Fire Palace was Yan Kui's power.
Xiao Chen simply wanted to steal it! Asking for it was just a waste of time. It was impossible to get it.
"Master, do it. With the Art of Escape and the Art of Space, are you afraid that you can't steal it?" The Divine Sword's laughter came from within his body.
"Hehe, since it is an enemy power, how can I ask for it?" With a playful smile on his face, Xiao Chen chuckled. Immediately, he performed the Art of Escape and escaped into the ground.
A few minutes later, under the cover of the Art of Escape, Xiao Chen carefully arrived at the peak of a mountain near the Sacred Fire Palace. On top of a large rock, Xiao Chen carefully peeked his head out. It was as though the rock had a head on it.
Looking in the direction of the Sacred Fire Palace, Xiao Chen frowned slightly when he sensed the tyrannical aura. He muttered, "This Sacred Fire Palace is really not simple. They are much stronger than the Qinglan Saint Palace."
After a simple look at the Sacred Fire Palace, the head on the rock disappeared. Xiao Chen followed the mountain peak and escaped to the bottom of the cliff.
He had completely concealed his aura. With the towering mountain peak concealing his body, it was impossible to be discovered.
The cliff was several thousand feet tall. Xiao Chen was secretly amazed at the depth of the cliff. He quickly descended. The cliff was covered by fog and nothing could be seen.
When Xiao Chen arrived at the bottom of the cliff, he first checked the surrounding illusion with vigilance. It was a dense forest. When he didn't sense any danger, Xiao Chen then approached the foot of the Sacred Fire Mountain.
"Such a powerful aura. There is actually a Saint Lord expert." When he approached the foot of the Sacred Fire Mountain, he sensed a tyrannical aura of a Saint Lord expert. Xiao Chen frowned slightly and thought to himself. He immediately slowed down.
"It is indeed heavily guarded. There are over a hundred guards and there are 15 Saint King experts. The Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source should be inside the cave." When he was still a few dozen meters away from the foot of the Sacred Fire Mountain, Xiao Chen stopped and carefully observed the man-made cave entrance.
"Master, enter the cave and take a look!" The divine sword transmitted a message.
Ignoring the divine sword, Xiao Chen didn't move. He glanced at the illusion around the cave with a sharp gaze. The area within a few dozen feet of the cave was empty. There were a few people every few meters. Even the two sides of the cave had many guards. It was impossible to assassinate them. Moreover, it would definitely alarm a Saint Lord expert.
Looking at the traces of battle left on the empty ground, Xiao Chen frowned slightly and thought to himself, "There is no lack of bold people in the Saints' World. It seems like there are many people who want to steal or rob the Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source. Moreover, they all know that it is impossible to ask for it. They can only steal or rob."
His gaze shifted from the traces of battle and glanced at every guard. Finally, it stopped at the entrance of the cave.
"There is a barrier around the cave. If one wants to rob, it is impossible to break the barrier without the strength to defeat a Saint Lord expert. Moreover, once there is a fight, the people of the Sacred Fire Palace will be alerted. At that time, they will only be hunted down unless they are Saint Emperors." With just a glance at the entrance of the cave, Xiao Chen sensed the energy fluctuation of the barrier. He sighed again about the difficulty of robbing.
Of course, Saint Emperors didn't need any Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source. Even for Saint Lords, the energy of the Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source wouldn't be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth. Instead of robbing and provoking the Sacred Fire Palace, it was better to ask for elixirs from high-grade alchemists.
The Leng Emperor also said that the Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source was only suitable for Saint Kings. Above Saint Kings, even if it had some effect, it was pitifully small.
"Saint Lords will enter the cave from time to time to prevent people from sneaking in. This is not easy." Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head. It wasn't that easy to steal the Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source.
Although it wasn't that easy to steal the Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source, Xiao Chen didn't want to give up. Xiao Chen understood the logic of 'nothing ventured, nothing gained.'
Moving carefully again, Xiao Chen went around the right side of the cave. There was a barrier at the entrance of the cave, so he naturally couldn't enter. However, there weren't any barriers at the left and right sides, so Xiao Chen could enter at any time.
After moving to the right side of the cave, Xiao Chen entered the mountain. He was already very careful, but the deeper he went into the cave, the more nervous Xiao Chen got. Once a Saint Lord expert was alerted, it would be difficult to seize the Sacred Fire Mystic Crystal Source.
After stopping three meters away from the inside of the cave, Xiao Chen could clearly see everything in the cave. There were plenty of Moonlight Pearls embedded on the mountain walls, illuminating the dark cave.
The cave was slightly damp, and the stone pillars at the top of the cave would drip water from time to time. The cave was empty, but at the center, there was a middle-aged man in his forties sitting cross-legged in the air. The man was wearing a blue robe, and his entire body was suffused with a faint blue light. A tyrannical aura was emitted from his body. He was an early-stage Saint Lord.
In front of the man, there was a jade bottle placed on a huge stone pillar. The bottle was open, and at the top of the cave, there was a fiery red crystal source that was emitting a powerful aura.
"One more drop and it will be full. The Young Palace Master needs this bottle of crystal source to cultivate. There can be no mistakes." Looking at the crystal source at the top of the cave, the man muttered to himself with a smile. He muttered to himself for a moment and immediately said, "However, this is usually the most dangerous time."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen, who was hiding in the mountain wall, had a slight change in his expression. His heartbeat sped up as he said inwardly, "Was I discovered by him? How is this possible? "
However, just as Xiao Chen was astonished, a shout suddenly came from outside the cave. The astonished Xiao Chen quickly turned his gaze.
"As expected, they are here!" Frowning slightly, the man looked at the crystal source that was about to drip down and said coldly, "There should be one more hour."
Outside the cave, a Saint Monarch expert suddenly came out of the dense forest with a dozen Saint Kings. The sudden sneak attack immediately killed the guards of the Sacred Fire Palace.
In the cave, the man waved his hand and set up a boundary to protect the jade bottle on the stone pillar. A fierce cold light flashed in his eyes. He immediately snorted and rushed out of the cave.
"How dare you come to snatch the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Source!" A deep angry shout came from the cave. Then, a black figure rushed out of the cave with a murderous aura. He suddenly shouted angrily, "Don't let a single one of them go!"
"I will stop him!" The Saint Monarch expert who launched the sneak attack shouted coldly. He looked at the man who rushed out of the cave and did not want to be outdone.
The man rushed out of the cave. Xiao Chen, who was hiding in the mountain wall, was overjoyed. He did not say anything and quickly rushed out of the mountain wall.
"Can a mere boundary stop me?" He was overjoyed. As soon as he came out of the mountain wall, he wanted to use Spatial Transference to transfer the jade bottle out.
However, the excited Xiao Chen had just come out of the mountain wall. His feet suddenly stepped on a square stone and the stone suddenly caved in.
The sudden sinking feeling made Xiao Chen's expression change. He felt a chill in his heart and exclaimed, "Not good! There is a mechanism! "
Swish! Swish! Swish!
As the stone caved in, a large number of flying arrows suddenly shot out from all directions of the cave. They contained tyrannical power and intertwined with each other. It was as if they wanted to shoot people into meat paste.
