The cold wind and snowflakes were like knives, cutting into Xiao Chen's face. It was incomparably painful. He had to squint his eyes to prevent the snowflakes from entering his eyes.
"Pu Ci!"
A sharp killing intent locked onto Xiao Chen. The Ice Ape shot out a piercing ice line from its huge mouth. The ice line was extremely condensed; it was as thin as a needle.
Xiao Chen felt the threat of death. In that instant, he wanted to take out the Eastern Emperor Bell. However, when he thought of his earlier apprehensions, he did not do so in the end.
"Heavenly Lightning Shield!"
Electricity flickered around Xiao Chen. The Lightning Evasion wrapped around Xiao Chen. However, the needle-sized ice line pierced through the Heavenly Lightning Shield, leaving a tiny hole that the naked eye could not see.
The Heavenly Lightning Shield slowly disappeared and blood spurted out from Xiao Chen's chest. Xiao Chen looked at the wound strangely. That ice line was too small. When it pierced through his body, he did not even feel any pain.
The wound on his chest was very small. However, the blood that flowed out was like a faucet, gushing out violently.
Xiao Chen's complexion was pale. He used the Lunar Shadow Saber to support his body and knelt on one knee. He took out a Blood Replenishing Pill with his left hand and instantly swallowed it. After that, he took out another Blood Replenishing Pill and crushed it before applying it on the wound.
However, the Blood Replenishing Pill that had worked every time lost its effect this time. There was a cold Qi lingering around the wound on his chest, preventing the flesh from closing up.
When the Ice Ape shot out the ice line, it was like it had used up all its strength. It rested for a long time. Only then did it recover. It landed on all fours and leaped into the air, pouncing towards Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen revealed a determined expression on his pale face. He tossed out a golden wooden sculpture. The Golden Lion King appeared from nowhere. Its mountain-like body stomped heavily on the Ice Ape, crushing it to the ground.
The Golden Lion King's thick front limbs trampled on the huge Ice Ape violently, twisting it around. After a long time, the Ice Ape finally stopped struggling.
Xiao Chen sent out a strand of his Divine Sense and felt that the Ice Ape was indeed dead. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. The wound on Xiao Chen's chest was still slowly bleeding. The Blood Replenishing Pill alleviated the bleeding, and it was not as turbulent as before.
Tearing off a piece of cloth from his clothes, Xiao Chen wrapped it around the wound and went to the Frost Ape's side.
Seeing the Frost Ape covered in wounds, Zhao Fu took out a sharp knife and cut open its body from the side. He found that the Frost Ape's internal organs had been badly damaged, and there were still traces of electricity in them.
"Looks like the dozen or so grade 3 lightning-attribute talismans were the cause of its death," Xiao Chen said indifferently. Then, he took out the top-grade ice-attribute inner core.
At this moment, there was a piercing sound in the air as a dazzling Sword Qi shot over.
Xiao Chen unhurriedly placed the Spirit Core into the Universe Ring. He smiled faintly to himself. He finally could not resist making a move.
Earlier, although he had scanned the area with his Spiritual Sense many times, he did not find anyone following him. However, Xiao Chen had kept an eye on him. He knew that someone was following him.
Thus, even at the most crucial moment of the battle with the Ice Ape, he did not use some killing moves. If it were not for the situation being dire, the Golden Lion King would not have used them.
"Dang!"
The Eastern Emperor Bell rang softly and flew out of Xiao Chen's body. It floated above his head, and strands of mysterious yellow Qi fell from his head. The Sword Qi that flew behind him was blocked by the Heaven and Earth Qi, disappearing without a trace.
Xiao Chen gently pushed off the ground and leaped onto the Golden Lion King's head. He looked quietly at the person who arrived. An old man slowly walked out with waning steps.
This was the Martial Saint that the Zhang Clan Head had ordered around. His name was Chang Cun, and he was the top guest of Yunyang City's Zhang Clan. He was already a Consummation Medial Grade Martial Saint.
After a cultivator became a Martial Saint, every time they advanced by a grade, their strength would increase exponentially. A Medial Grade Martial Saint could fight against ten Inferior Grade Martial Saints.
Chang Cun looked at the Eastern Emperor Bell above Xiao Chen's head. Then he looked at the huge Golden Lion King under his feet. His expression was somewhat cautious. Along the way, the youth in front of him had given him too many surprises.
If Chang Cun had not cultivated a Martial Technique to hide his aura, he would have been discovered by this person several times. Chang Cun was already very shocked when he saw Xiao Chen take out the Golden Lion King. He did not expect Xiao Chen to take out a strong defensive Secret Treasure.
"Is this where your confidence comes from?"
Chang Cun's voice was very soft but very clear. As he stood there quietly, he had an overwhelming aura. This aura spread out involuntarily. Even with the Eastern Emperor Bell and the Golden Lion King, Xiao Chen did not dare to be careless.
"Hu chi!"
In terms of aura, Xiao Chen was at an absolute disadvantage. He did not want to waste time with him. With a thought, the Golden Lion King spat out a golden flame at Chang Cun.
"Chi!" A sword Qi streaked across and the golden flame was sliced in half, flying to the sides. "Shua!" Chang Cun's figure flashed. He was like a ghost, flying to Xiao Chen's side. A sword light flashed, and his sword appeared before Xiao Chen.
"Dang!"
Another strand of yellow Qi slid down from the Eastern Emperor Bell like glass. Before Xiao Chen could react, it automatically blocked this sword strike. "Dang! Dang! Dang!"
In the blink of an eye, Chang Cun sent out several hundred sword strikes. His speed was extremely fast. However, every time he did so, he was blocked by the yellow Qi from the Eastern Emperor Bell.
The Eastern Emperor Bell was indeed the strongest defensive Secret Treasure of the human race. Even though its Dao patterns were completely shattered, it still had such might. Xiao Chen revealed a calm expression as he shouted. "Dang! Dang!
Dang! "
The Eastern Emperor Bell gave off a long chime, and a ripple spread out in all directions. Chang Cun bore the brunt of it and was immediately knocked back.
When the bell chime spread out, Xiao Chen felt dizzy. He could not help but feel astonished. He quickly stopped the bell chime. In the end, he could not use an incomplete Secret Treasure.
Xiao Chen controlled the Golden Lion King and leaped into the air, causing the ground to tremble. Its mountain-like body pressed down on Chang Cun.
Chang Cun's figure spun rapidly, changing his position very quickly. As he dodged the attacks, he sent out strands of resplendent sword Qi at Xiao Chen.
However, Xiao Chen, who had the Eastern Emperor Bell, was in an invincible position. Streams of yellow Qi descended from above, blocking all the attacks.
"Mountain Breaking Chop!"
Suddenly, Chang Cun shouted. The light on his sword was withdrawn. An Earth Ranked Martial Technique, a peak strike, struck the yellow Qi violently.
The might of an Earth Ranked Martial Technique executed by a Medial Grade Martial Saint was much stronger than Xiao Chen's Dragon Seizing Hand. Furthermore, all the attacks were focused on one point.
A ripple appeared on the yellow Qi, and a huge force was transmitted. Xiao Chen, who was on the back of the Golden Lion King, was forced back a few steps before he could stabilize himself.
Xiao Chen was startled. A fiery light flashed in his right eye, and a purple flame spewed out at Chang Cun. The flame turned into a whirlpool, spinning continuously.
Chang Cun spread his arms wide and quickly retreated. In the blink of an eye, he dodged the spinning Purple Thunder True Fire. He slowly landed on the ground and looked at the Eastern Emperor Bell above Xiao Chen's head. He was deep in thought, but he could not figure it out.
Xiao Chen controlled the Eastern Emperor Bell and the Golden Lion King at the same time. The Essence in his body was like an open dam, leaking out. He could not help but feel very anxious.
"Shua!" Just at this moment, for some unknown reason, the Eastern Emperor Bell above his head made a 'dang dang' sound and turned back into a small, exquisite bell. It fell into Xiao Chen's hands.
What's going on? Xiao Chen was dumbfounded. It was clearly repaired, it was just that the Dao patterns were not complete. I also placed my imprint on it. Why can't I use it now?
A bright light flashed in Chang Cun's eyes. His figure moved again, and a sword light soared into the sky, hacking down at Xiao Chen.
The situation was critical; there was no time to think. Xiao Chen collected his thoughts, and a clap of thunder resounded in the sky. He executed the Rushing Thunder Saber Technique's Drawing the Saber. The saber gave off a bright light as it clashed with this sword strike.
"Bang!"
Xiao Chen's body was knocked flying, and he landed heavily on the ground. He rolled back continuously, and the wound on his chest reopened again; it was incomparably painful.
It looks like there is no more chance. An Inferior Grade Martial Master challenging a Medial Grade Martial Saint is simply seeking death. Xiao Chen, who was lying on the ground, smiled bitterly to himself. He originally thought that by relying on the Eastern Emperor Bell and the Golden Lion King, he might have a chance.
Only when he truly fought did he realize how wrong he was. His opponent's speed and strength were much higher than his. The Golden Lion King could not even touch him. Just like that, he was already in an undefeatable position.
However, now that I know someone is following me, I have achieved my goal. Xiao Chen thought to himself. This person does not have a Saber City identity token on him.
The most important thing is that this person uses a sword. That is to say, this person was not sent by Ge Yunbin. At the very least, it is not the worst case scenario.
"Berserk!"
Xiao Chen gave an order in his heart. The Golden Lion King on the ground immediately gave off a boundless baleful aura. Its speed increased significantly, and it entangled Chang Cun, preventing him from chasing after Xiao Chen.
"Lightning Descend!"
Xiao Chen used another Inferior Grade Spirit Stone. His Essence was immediately replenished. Before he left, he summoned out bolts of lightning, continuously annoying Chang Cun.
To a Medial Grade Martial Saint, the might of this Lightning Descend was negligible. However, when it struck the body, it was hard to avoid pain. At this moment, he was entangled by the berserk Golden Lion King.
Xiao Chen did not have the time to dodge the bolts of lightning. Not long after, he was struck by a few bolts of lightning. His skin was charred black, and all his hair was standing on end. He was in an extremely sorry state.
Chang Cun was so angry that smoke came out of his seven orifices. However, he could not do anything to Xiao Chen. At this moment, the speed of this Golden Lion King, which was the size of a small mountain, had increased significantly. It entangled Chang Cun, and he had no way to deal with Xiao Chen.
"It's about time. The berserk Golden Lion King will not be able to last much longer," Xiao Chen smiled faintly. A silver warship appeared, and he leaped off gently, drifting away.
Before he left, he gave the Golden Lion King a deep look. He felt that it was a pity. After the Golden Lion King went berserk, there was no way to use it a second time. It would be very difficult to find good materials for it.
Back in Saber City, Xiao Chen returned to his courtyard. He sat down cross-legged and circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation.
There was a small wound on his chest that could not be healed. There was always a cold Qi lingering on the wound. If he could not expel the cold Qi, Xiao Chen would die from blood loss sooner or later.
