With one look, it was clear that this was a wandering bladesman who made the world his home.
The black-clad man carried a saber and walked over to Xiao Chen step by step. He smiled and said, "This is great. My opponent is a bladesman as well. Furthermore, a true bladesman. I can feel the soul of a bladesman in you."
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Unfortunately, I cannot feel the soul of a bladesman in you. Aside from the sharp saber intent and the vicissitudes of life in your eyes, there is also an inexplicable perplexity in them. That is a perplexity that a bladesman should not have."
The black-clad bladesman was somewhat stunned to be seen through with one glance. He smiled and said, "Your eyes are really sharp. If not for the fact that you do not have the cultivation of a Consummation Blue Robed Emperor, I would not dare to challenge you. However, even if I cannot defeat you, it is worth it to die in the hands of a true bladesman. Make your move. "
Although this person's mental state had some flaws, Xiao Chen did not dare to be careless. For Wu Ke to take a fancy to this black-clad bladesman, there had to be something extraordinary about him.
Xiao Chen raised his left hand slightly and raised the Lunar Shadow Saber. Then, he took three steps, each step leaving behind an afterimage. With every step, he sent out countless electric dragon images.
Xiao Chen arrived before his opponent in the blink of an eye. Then, he executed the Qing Emperor's Drawing the Saber. The instant he drew his saber, he brandished it in eighty-one different trajectories.
The black-clad bladesman's eyes lit up. Clearly, this was his first time seeing such a profound Drawing the Saber.
However, he did not panic. He drew the saber on his shoulder and held it with both hands, not in a rush to make a move. He was sensing Xiao Chen's killing intent. No matter how many changes there were, there would always be a true killing intent that would not change.
Even if these eighty-one saber trajectories were all real, he only needed to find the one that contained Xiao Chen's true killing intent and break it forcefully. Then, he would be able to break this wave of attacks.
Just as Xiao Chen's saber light was about to strike him, the black-clad bladesman suddenly made a move. He held his saber with both hands and swung it vigorously. A waterfall appeared behind him, and as he slashed with his saber, the waterfall fell right on top of him.
Dang!
The two sabers clashed, and all sorts of saber trajectories were broken. Xiao Chen's right hand, which held the saber, felt slightly numb.
"My Flying Flow Strike is not bad, right? Although your eyes are sharp, in terms of combat experience and saber techniques, you are far inferior to me. You will lose this battle for sure."
After knocking back Xiao Chen with one saber strike, the black-clad bladesman felt that he had figured out Xiao Chen's strength. His confidence soared, so he quickly charged over.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. The Qing Emperor's Drawing Technique was only his opening move. It was not even a killing move. His opponent had underestimated him.
If he didn't explain himself, it would be better for the other party to underestimate him. That way, it would be easier for him to win.
Saber shadows flew everywhere as the two of them fought back and forth.
The entire boneyard was in chaos. Everyone fought their own battles. No one could be distracted.
The strength of both sides was about the same. Both sides had their own strengths and weaknesses in the battle, and neither side had too much of an advantage.
It was impossible to determine a victor quickly.
One hour later, the victor of the first battle was decided. Although the Great Fatso on Xiao Chen's side did his best, he was not a match for the middle-aged spearman.
The middle-aged spearman pierced Xiao Chen's chest with a spear. Xiao Chen's eyes opened wide, and he died with a grievance.
This was how cruel the world of cultivators was. No matter how dissatisfied one was, being weaker often meant death.
At this moment, in this intense battle, even if one wanted to retreat, it would be impossible.
The middle-aged spearman smiled coldly and drew his spear. Then, he looked around the battlefield and joined his companion's fight with the black-skinned Huge Elephant Race youth.
The situation tilted slightly in Wu Ke's favor. On Xiao Chen's side, the Venom Spider Race woman defeated her opponent and killed him. Then, she joined in to help her companion.
Xiao Chen secretly observed the situation, not in a rush to end the battle before him.
He already had a good grasp of the black-clad bladesman's strength. The other party's Saber Techniques were very strong, and his Law Energy was relatively vast. However, his saber soul was only forty percent comprehended.
As long as Xiao Chen brought out his sixty-percent-comprehended saber soul without holding back, he could suppress the other party in an instant and end this battle.
However, Xiao Chen did not do so. The reason was that this sudden battle looked like a coincidence. However, no matter how he thought about it, it was not a coincidence.
The cruel battle continued. The two sides were about the same in the first place.
The two leading half-step Emperor Wu's did not show any signs of ending their opponent quickly. This battle could only continue, not stopping until one side was dead.
Cultivators died one after another amid the sounds of fighting. The middle-aged couple on Xiao Chen's side and the black-skinned Huge Elephant Race youth died one after another.
The number of people dying on the other side was about the same. The stalemate still showed no signs of ending.
"Pu ci!"
Dugu Ao and his opponent cried out as they struck each other at the same time, ending in a miserable mutual destruction.
Seeing his opponent fall to the ground, Dugu Ao smiled bitterly with his pale face. "It's good that you are dead. I've had enough of these days."
After saying that, Dugu Ao fell to the ground.
"It's time to end this," the bald Wu Ke, who was fighting with Yang Kai, suddenly said.
Yang Kai nodded. Then, his figure flashed as he suddenly attacked, charging at the straw-caped old man who had just defeated his opponent.
That straw-caped old man had just heaved a sigh of relief. Before he could react, Yang Kai chopped off his head with his sword.
The half-step Emperor Wu brought out his full strength. Yang Kai's figure flashed rapidly, killing one person with each sword strike. The Silver Shark Race bladesman and the Venom Spider Race woman, who were severely injured and nearly drained of their Law Energy.
Caught completely off guard, they died at Yang Kai's hands before they could figure out what was going on.
On the other side, Wu Ke moved quickly as well, killing off the remaining people on his side one by one.
Something strange happened suddenly, without any warning. It was surprising but not surprising.
"Pu ci!"
Before the black-clad bladesman fighting with Xiao Chen could react, a bowl-sized bloody hole appeared in his chest. Needless to say, the one who attacked was naturally the bald Wu Ke, the half-step Emperor Wu with the black snake tattoo on his head.
"Subduing Dragon Profound Slash!"
Xiao Chen, who had been on guard all along, silently circulated his Profound Martial Technique the instant the two half-step Emperor Wu attacked.
A dragon image drifted about, and a resplendent azure saber light gathered on the saber.
Holding his saber with both hands, Xiao Chen brought out his sixty-percent-comprehended saber soul. It was like he had eyes on his back as he hacked down with great force.
"Dang!"
The sound of the saber and sword clashing resounded. Yang Kai, who had easily killed three people, was knocked back three steps by Xiao Chen's saber strike, which Xiao Chen had prepared long ago. A look of shock flashed in his eyes.
Wu Ke, who was on the other side, was clearly surprised as well. He immediately exploded the black-clad bladesman with a punch. Then, he glared at Xiao Chen with his right eye.
Suddenly, the snake tattoo that matched Wu Ke's eye appeared. The black tattoo turned into a real snake. Its body continuously grew larger as it charged at Xiao Chen to bite him.
This move was extremely sinister. It happened to take advantage of the moment when Xiao Chen turned around and withdrew his saber. This created a dead angle, catching him off guard.
However, Wu Ke was not the only one with a Spirit Pet. Xiao Chen had one as well. A sharp bird cry rang out.
Little Yellow Feather quickly came out of Xiao Chen's ring and spread its wings. It instantly entered a berserk state. All the feathers on its body turned golden, giving off a resplendent and dazzling light.
When Little Yellow Feather clawed, it dug its claws deeply into the black snake's flesh, causing it to cry out in pain. Then, it changed its target, turning its head to bite at Little Yellow Feather.
"Pu ci!"
Little Yellow Feather opened its mouth and spat out a strand of dense Solar True Flame into the black snake's body.
Immediately, the black snake cried out in pain. It fell to the ground and rolled around continuously, looking as if it was in extreme pain.
Xiao Chen took advantage of the situation and spread out his arms, distancing himself from Yang Kai and the bald-headed Wu Ke. He hovered in the air, leaning against a wall as he looked at the two coldly.
In just a few breaths of time, there were only three people left in this burial ground.
Such an outcome was truly unexpected.
The small mountain-like pile of Essence Stones flickered with light, giving off a boundless temptation. Then, Xiao Chen looked at the bleeding corpses at the side. The saying "people die for wealth" was indeed true.
Xiao Chen said indifferently, "The two of you have good means. This Xiao admires you. Everyone says that the dragon grave is dangerous. In the end, it is not as dangerous as the human heart. "
At this moment, some of Xiao Chen's doubts could already be resolved.
Wu Ke and Yang Kai should have discovered this dragon grave at the same time. However, this Eight Star dragon grave was too dangerous. If they did not find some scapegoats, they would not be able to enter the burial ground safely.
Between the two of them, there should be a Secret Treasure that allowed them to communicate in private. Then, it created a coincidence that the two groups met in the burial grounds.
With so many treasures around, the two teams would definitely engage in a battle to the death.
This gave Yang Kai and Wu Ke a chance to deal with the others easily. Naturally, the fewer people who shared the treasures, the better.
Wu Ke removed the Solar True Flame from the black snake's stomach and stood beside Yang Kai. He looked at Xiao Chen and said, "The ones who should be admiring you are the two of us. Facing so many treasures, you are still able to maintain a calm heart. This is not something that we can do."
Yang Kai said with a smile, "Little Friend, do you have anything to say before you die?"
Two half-step Emperor Wu against one Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. No matter how one looked at it, victory was assured. Although Yang Kai was surprised by Xiao Chen's strength and mental state, he did not think that Xiao Chen could do anything against two half-step Emperor Wu.
"Then go ahead and try. Let's see who will benefit in the end."
Yang Kai's and Wu Ke's expressions changed at the same time. After thinking for a while, they suddenly felt that Xiao Chen's words seemed to imply something.
"What do you mean?"
Xiao Chen shouted, "What do I mean? Are you still not coming out? Are you waiting for me to drag you out?!"
There is still someone not dead!
Yang Kai and Wu Ke were startled. Who could have hidden so deeply, even deceiving the two of them? Or was Xiao Chen purposely trying to trick them?
"Youngsters these days do not know how to respect their elders. This old man is just seeking peace and quiet. There is no need to expose me …"
There was a drawn-out sigh. Suddenly, a head popped out of the headless corpse of the straw-caped old man on the ground.
Then, they looked at the head that Yang Kai chopped off earlier. At some point in time, it had turned into a pile of dirt and merged into the ground.
The straw-caped old man suddenly stood up, startling Yang Kai and Wu Ke. This old fellow was a true wily old fox.
