It had already been half a month since the Sacred Fire Palace's seventy guards and the Great Commander had been killed. However, no one knew where this news came from, but it had already spread to all the surrounding forces like a plague. It was already a big matter that everyone knew about.
Shocking! Absolutely shocking!
The Sacred Fire Palace was a force under Yan Kui Holy Palace. Although its strength was above average, no force or powerful rogue cultivator had dared to provoke it for many years. At most, they would take the risk to steal or snatch the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Source.
No one had ever heard of anyone who had the guts to kill more than seventy people from the Sacred Fire Palace, including the Commander Zhao Xing. This shocking news shocked all the surrounding forces and countless rogue cultivators.
While everyone was shocked, they were also guessing who had the guts to kill so many people from the Sacred Fire Palace.
However, the truth could not be concealed. The news that the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Source had been stolen from the Sacred Fire Palace had already spread to all the surrounding forces. It was also known through the grapevine that the person who stole the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Source was a mysterious man named Xiao Chen.
Because of this, the Sacred Fire Palace was furious, but the result shocked everyone. After searching for a long time, they did not even see a shadow of Xiao Chen.
When all these incidents were connected, many people secretly guessed that the person who carried out the massacre of the Sacred Fire Palace was Xiao Chen. At the same time, those who suspected Xiao Chen were also secretly guessing about Xiao Chen's background.
If he had a great background, it was nothing to be afraid of killing so many people from the Sacred Fire Palace. But if he did not, it was undoubtedly setting fire to himself.
After half a month, the news still spread like wildfire among the surrounding forces. Almost everywhere one went, one could hear about the massacre of the Sacred Fire Palace's guards.
Because the news inexplicably leaked out, the Sacred Fire Palace's reputation was tarnished, and Ge Yunkong and other high-level figures were furious. They were determined to find the culprit, tear him into pieces, and destroy him.
"Sacred Fire Palace, I'm here!" In the forest, Xiao Chen looked at the peak of a towering mountain not far ahead through the gaps of the dense trees and sneered.
"Master, what do you plan to do?" The divine sword asked.
"Heh heh." A mysterious and sinister smile appeared on his face. He waved his hand and five clones appeared out of nowhere.
"Spatial Transformation." Xiao Chen shouted inwardly and quickly condensed five independent spaces. The five clones moved into the independent spaces and disappeared into thin air.
"Master, what are you doing?" The Divine Sword's puzzled voice sounded again.
"You'll know soon enough." With a mysterious smile, Xiao Chen flew up and flew along the top of the ancient tree.
After more than a month, Xiao Chen returned to the Sacred Fire Palace again. But this time, it was not for the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Essence, but to destroy the Sacred Fire Palace.
Inside the Sacred Fire Palace, a raging fire was vaguely emitted, and a chilling murderous aura shrouded the entire main palace.
"Palace Master, now all the forces outside are saying that it was Xiao Chen who did it. Our Sacred Fire Palace's reputation has been greatly damaged, but how is this possible? How can he, a mere Early-stage Saint King, kill the chief commander? "In the main hall of the Sacred Fire Palace, an elder's old face was filled with shock and disbelief.
"No matter who it is, I will not let him off easily!" Ge Yunkong's face was extremely ferocious, and his blood vessels bulged. He gritted his teeth and roared, the anger in his eyes almost erupting.
"Except for the chief commander, all the guards were slashed in the throat. It can be seen that it was done by the same person. And there was a strange green powder on their bodies. The Alchemy Elder identified it as a powder that can produce energy in the body and block the meridians. This is the main reason." Frowning deeply, the First Elder said angrily in a deep voice, and his face was frighteningly gloomy.
"Even if it can block the meridians, the chief commander can't be killed by a mere Saint King. If it was really done by Xiao Chen, then his cultivation is probably above mine. Maybe Xiao Chen used the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Essence to cultivate and made a breakthrough," Ge Feng said coldly from the right side of the main seat. His clean and handsome face exuded a frightening coldness.
"Who is Xiao Chen? Why didn't the Black Wind Commander capture Xiao Chen personally? "Second Elder frowned and asked in confusion. He was very curious.
"It doesn't matter who Xiao Chen is. What's important is to find him as soon as possible. Other than Xiao Chen, I can't think of anyone who has the guts to do so!" Ge Yunkong said in a deep voice after taking a deep breath and calming his anger.
While the top officials were talking, Xiao Chen had already arrived at the mountain gate of the Sacred Fire Palace!
"Stop! This is the Sacred Fire Palace. Outsiders … "
"Xiao … Xiao Chen!"
The two guards guarding the mountain gate were just about to reprimand someone who didn't know the rules when their faces suddenly changed. Their eyes were filled with horror and they were stunned.
Xiao Chen's name was very well-known in the Sacred Fire Palace. Just the theft of the Sacred Fire Mysterious Crystal Essence was enough to shock the entire Sacred Fire Palace. Although they hadn't seen Xiao Chen's lineup, all the guards had seen Xiao Chen's portrait. Now that Xiao Chen suddenly appeared in the Sacred Fire Palace, the two guards recognized him at a glance.
Smiling faintly at the two frightened guards, Xiao Chen said indifferently, "Please go back and report that I'm here."
Xiao Chen didn't stop at all. Instead, he walked through the mountain gate while talking. The two guards looked on in horror. They wanted to stop him but found themselves trembling and feeling weak.
He walked confidently between the two guards and went straight to the palace square. At this time, the two guards suddenly woke up and immediately rushed toward the main palace. Their faces were shrouded in fear.
Xiao Chen had just walked toward the huge circular square when many guards had already noticed him. When they found that he was exactly the same as the Xiao Chen in the portrait, dozens of guards rushed over and stopped Xiao Chen in the square.
"Palace Master! Palace Master! Xiao Chen is here! "The guards who rushed to the main palace shouted in panic. They couldn't even rush into the main palace so quickly if they wanted to escape.
"You really are Xiao Chen!"
"I didn't expect you to have the guts to come!"
"Breaking into the Sacred Fire Palace alone, you have guts!"
The guards who stopped Xiao Chen first heard the shouts and confirmed that the man who appeared in front of them was the Xiao Chen they had been searching for for a long time.
In the square, more and more guards poured out from the various palaces as the shouts spread. In the blink of an eye, there were hundreds of people in the square. They were lined up in rows like a city wall.
Xiao Chen looked at the increasing number of guards with an indifferent gaze. His face didn't change at all. He smiled faintly and said, "Your greatest strength is lying through your teeth. Which eye of yours saw that I don't have guts?"
"You …" The guard's face turned red the moment he heard what Xiao Chen said. His skin twitched, but he was unable to say anything. The other guards, on the other hand, were so amused by Xiao Chen's words that they covered their mouths and snickered.
"Hmm?" Hearing the low laughter, the man's face instantly swept around fiercely. The guards were so frightened that they immediately stopped laughing.
"Brat, before the Palace Master comes out, I will kill you first!" The guard narrowed his eyes and stared at Xiao Chen. The Saint Qi in his body was pushed out crazily.
The tyrannical power gushed out and a strong force swept out from the square, blowing up a large cloud of dust on the ground. The guards hurriedly retreated.
Judging from the tyrannical aura, the guard was a Middle-stage Saint King! He was not weak in the Sacred Fire Palace.
"Bang!"
Using all his strength, he stomped on the ground. With a muffled bang, he left a spiderweb-like crack on the ground. His body had already turned into a black line and rushed toward Xiao Chen like a bolt of lightning. His hands quickly formed a seal.
"Profound Rank Divine Technique! Wild Cloud Wind Shattering Palm! "
He arrived in the blink of an eye at an astonishing speed. He roared in his heart. Tyrannical power condensed in his palm, emitting a dazzling silver light. The guard slammed his palm forward fiercely.
"Heaven Falls and Earth Rends!"
Looking at the guard rushing toward him, a sinister look flashed in his eyes. Suddenly, he roared in his heart. The tyrannical Chaotic Force was pushed and condensed fiercely. His fist flashed with golden light as he met the guard's attack.
"Boom!"
"Crack!"
"Pfft!"
The fist and palm collided in an instant. With a muffled boom, the sound of bones cracking could be heard. The guard's expression changed drastically. He was filled with fear. The tyrannical power flowed through the guard's arm and into his body. The shock caused the guard's internal organs to be damaged. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
"How … how is this possible?" The guard's eyes bulged. His pale face was filled with disbelief.
"Hmph!" Xiao Chen snorted coldly. His lips curled into a sneer. The power of his fist increased again. Instantly, the guard was sent flying.
The guard's feet rubbed against the ground of the square. He was sent flying for more than ten meters. With the help of many guards behind him, he finally stopped. However, he was also seriously injured.
Despite being at the same level of cultivation, Xiao Chen was able to severely injure his opponent with just one blow. Such ferocious strength left many of the guards present dumbfounded.
At this moment, the whole place fell into silence. Everyone looked at Xiao Chen in horror. Xiao Chen's fierceness was much more terrifying than they had imagined.
"Xiao Chen, you've got guts. How dare you come back to court death!" As soon as Xiao Chen seriously injured the guard, Ge Yunkong and the other higher-ups of the Sacred Fire Palace quickly walked out of the main palace gate. Ge Yunkong shouted fiercely, glaring at Xiao Chen with his sinister eyes.
Hearing that, Xiao Chen glanced at Ge Yunkong and the others on the steps. He spread his hands and smiled faintly. "Seeing that you've been looking for me so hard, I came here myself."
"Xiao Chen! Hand over the Sacred Fire Dark Crystal Source! "The First Elder shouted angrily. His gloomy old face was filled with murderous intent.
"There's none left. I used some for myself and gave some to others." Xiao Chen spread his hands and smiled faintly.
"Gave it to others? How dare you! "Hearing that, the First Elder's face was hideous. He almost roared.
"You know that we want to kill you, but you came here to court death. I don't think you're stupid. Tell me, what are you doing in the Sacred Fire Palace?" Ge Feng said coldly as he glanced at Xiao Chen. His eyes were filled with murderous intent. His words made people tremble.
"I'm here to make a scene!" Xiao Chen touched his nose and smiled faintly.
