Xiao Chen had only one chance, only one chance to shoot the arrow.
If he missed, the three would have a chance to survive.
If he missed, all three would die.
Xiao Chen did not fear death. However, he did not like this feeling. He did not want to lose his friends' lives because of his mistake.
If possible, Xiao Chen was even willing to sacrifice himself for his friends' chances of survival.
However, due to their trust, Chu Chaoyun and Lin Feng placed their hopes on Xiao Chen, putting the greatest pressure on him.
--- Old Eccentric Qiao fought with Lin Feng and Chu Chaoyun above the Underworld River. His aura fluctuated as his figure flickered, creating many afterimages.
After suffering once, how could Old Eccentric Qiao let Xiao Chen shoot him again? Whenever he sensed something, he would immediately dodge.
It was simply too difficult to lock down a 4-Vein Sovereign Emperor. Old Eccentric Qiao's Soul Energy was stronger than Xiao Chen's, and his Soul Sense was very sharp.
Old Eccentric Qiao's Divine Energy cultivation went without saying. With a thought, he could send out vast, sea-like Divine Energy with a wave of his hand.
Even if Old Eccentric Qiao focused on illusions and not Martial Techniques, he could easily suppress Chu Chaoyun and Lin Feng with just Divine Energy.
This was the so-called breaking technique with brute force.
No matter how powerful one's Martial Techniques were or how strong one's Dao Domain was, Old Eccentric Qiao only needed one palm strike to easily break the peak strike that you put in so much effort.
Chu Chaoyun and Lin Feng were fighting with their lives on the line.
If not for the two being outstanding geniuses and if not for Old Eccentric Qiao being severely injured, they would not even have the chance to fight with their lives on the line.
Damn it!
Xiao Chen cursed in his heart. I can't find him! I can't find him! I can't find him! I can't find him! I can't find him! I can't find him! Xiao Chen continuously swung the God Shadow Bow in his hand, but he could not draw the bowstring.
When facing the wary Old Eccentric Qiao, the other party sensed it the moment Xiao Chen used his Soul Energy.
Before Xiao Chen even used his Soul Energy, Old Eccentric Qiao already sensed it with just one look, allowing him to react in advance.
Xiao Chen had always been decisive in killing, never hesitating. However, at this moment, he felt fatigued. The mountain-like pressure prevented him from firing the arrow.
Beads of sweat fell from his forehead like raindrops, blurring his vision. However, he did not dare to wipe them off.
Little by little, Xiao Chen's heart became restless. The invisible torture was testing Xiao Chen's state of mind.
An inner demon quietly emerged. A voice echoed in his mind.
You were afraid that if this arrow missed, it would kill Lin Feng and Chu Chaoyun.
Because you are not a demon!
Because you are weak!
If you become a demon, you will be emotionless and loveless. There will be no worries or worries in your heart. There will be no fear, worry or cowardice in your heart!
If you become a demon, this arrow will definitely kill that Underworld God Protector!
If you become a demon, you won't need to fear the Underworld God Protector. This world will be yours!
Formless black Demonic Qi leaked out of Xiao Chen's body uncontrollably. It gave off a sinister light as it wriggled.
Black Devil Qi converged bit by bit in his eyes, transforming into a sea of ink. It was pitch black and unfathomable as it devoured the last bit of spiritual light.
This Demonic Qi inspired fear in the world. All the cultivators on the underworld boat trembled.
The God Shadow Bow was infected by Demonic Qi, slowly turning cold. The cold aura startled even Old Eccentric Qiao, who was in the distance.
Xiao Chen, fall into the Demonic Dao!
The inner demon sounded its final horn, wanting to corrode Xiao Chen's final thoughts and make him fall into the Demonic Dao.
Become a demon?
No!
The instant Xiao Chen said no in his heart, the spiritual light in his eyes exploded. The overwhelming Demonic Qi and the boundless ink sea all disappeared.
What demon? I've always been me. You'd better obediently lie down for me!
Xiao Chen snorted coldly in his heart. Then, he looked at Chu Chaoyun and Lin Feng, who were fighting Old Eccentric Qiao above the Underworld River.
The two fought with their lives on the line, constantly on the verge of death. With every second that passed, they could die.
However, the two fought with all their might every second, not giving up.
Xiao Chen could not help but understand. While he was not afraid of death, Lin Feng and Chu Chaoyun were not people who feared death.
It did not matter whether the arrow hit or not.
Most importantly, there was once a bond that bound the three of them together above the Underworld River.
Unwilling to admit defeat, they fought with a 4-Vein Sovereign Emperor.
Xiao Chen's left hand, which held the bow, no longer trembled. His heart was calm. This arrow is connected to my heart!
"Boom!"
However, just as Xiao Chen was about to fire this arrow, a black-clad figure suddenly appeared out of nowhere and smashed through Old Eccentric Qiao's Demonic Might. Suddenly, it appeared out of nowhere and directly smashed through Old Eccentric Qiao's Demonic Might. A hole appeared in the sky, where the four layers of Demonic Might spread.
The moment that black figure appeared, the pressure on Chu Chaoyun and Lin Feng immediately decreased significantly.
"Bang!"
The two palms clashed, and Old Eccentric Qiao vomited a mouthful of blood as the black-clad figure knocked him back five thousand kilometers.
"You are …"
This startled Old Eccentric Qiao. He seemed to recognize this person. However, just as he was about to say it, the black-clad figure pressed forward and attacked again.
This forced Old Eccentric Qiao to swallow his words. He could only receive the attacks helplessly as he was continuously pushed back.
Xiao Chen felt slightly stunned. Then, he put away the God Shadow Bow and entered deep thought.
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen's figure flashed, and he arrived beside Lin Feng and Chu Chaoyun. The two were incredibly fatigued and covered in injuries. However, they were still spirited, their fighting spirit not diminished. This gave Xiao Chen some relief.
"Xiao Chen, who is that person? I find him somewhat familiar … "Lin Feng said, finding this strange.
To think that someone in the Abyssal Underworld helped them push back Old Eccentric Qiao. This was simply incredible.
Lin Feng could vaguely sense who that figure was, but he could not be sure.
"That is someone from the Asura Race's Luohou bloodline. I'll talk to you in detail later."
The three left elegantly on the Underworld River before the dumbfounded cultivators below, leaving behind phantoms.
After landing on the riverbank, Xiao Chen said somewhat apologetically, "Sorry, I made a mistake with that arrow earlier …"
Chu Chaoyun smiled and said, "You are overthinking. Xiao Chen, there is no need to apologize. In reality, both Lin Feng and I could feel it. If not for your existence, making that old fellow fear you and keeping his guard up against you, we would not have lasted for so long. "
Lin Feng nodded. "He could have killed us several times, but he gave up in the end. At first, I did not understand. Now, I understand that you scared him. Hahaha! Old Eccentric Qiao has dominated the Abyssal Underworld for his entire life. First, you broke the Illusion Dao that he is most proud of. Then, you scared him until he could not even kill two 1-Vein Sovereign Emperors. After this battle, he will definitely embarrass himself! "
Lin Feng laughed very carefreely. Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. It seemed like ever since he met Lin Feng, Xiao Chen had always felt this way.
It seemed like Xiao Chen had never seen Lin Feng laugh before, much less laugh as happily as he did today.
The God Shadow Bow did not fire that arrow. However, that arrow already appeared in Xiao Chen's heart. This allowed Xiao Chen to understand many things. There were some things that he could not give up. That was a bond and friendship that could not be obtained even with the entire world.
"Come, let's leave the Abyssal Underworld first."
"Right."
Xiao Chen called out the Demon Blood Vulture and quickly carried the three far away. After that, there were no more surprises, everything went smoothly. Xiao Chen briefly told Lin Feng and Chu Chaoyun about the deal he made with Luohou Wang in the Final Blood Battlefield.
The two felt enlightened and said that Luohou Wang was indeed a passionate person.
At the very last moment, he actually got an older-generation Sovereign Emperor of his race to save Xiao Chen.
It was worth it for Xiao Chen to face ten-odd Sovereign Emperors for him back then, helping him fulfill his wish.
As for what kind of pressure Luohou King would face after this, the three of them were well aware of it. Feeling helpless, they did not say anything.
The Underworld God Temple would definitely not let Luohou Wang off. He was an Asura noble, so they would definitely not kill him. However, their punishment would definitely not be light.
Two days later, Xiao Chen's trio passed through the abyssal rift and returned to the Central World.
The long-awaited sun was rather dazzling, but it was also abnormally comfortable.
His repressed emotions were swept away.
Thinking back to everything that had happened in the Netherworld, it had been full of twists and turns. It had been extremely dangerous, but fortunately, everyone had returned alive.
Before he could be happy for too long, it was time to part again.
Xiao Chen and Lin Feng wanted to return to the Heavenly Alliance, while Chu Chaoyun wanted to return to the Universe Origin Sect. Naturally, the paths were different.
"Xiao Chen, if you need anything in the future, you can come to the Universe Origin Sect to find me directly. If it's inconvenient for you to come, you can also send a message. "
Before parting, Chu Chaoyun revealed his signature smile and said softly.
Xiao Chen nodded. "You too."
"Goodbye."
Chu Chaoyun looked at Xiao Chen and Lin Feng. Then, he performed a cupped-fist salute and left. Xiao Chen and Lin Feng only withdrew their gazes after Chu Chaoyun finally vanished from their sight.
"Let's go. It's time for us to turn in our mission."
Lin Feng reluctantly returned the Qiongqi Beast Ghost Pennant to Xiao Chen as he spoke.
Xiao Chen raised his hand and stopped Lin Feng. "Take it first and make do with it. You can return it to me when you no longer need it. Oh, by the way, this is for you as well. "
Lin Feng looked at the item Xiao Chen gave him in his palm. This greatly startled him, rendering him somewhat speechless. "You … that's not good, right?"
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Who cares? It's useless anyway. Come, let's return to the Heavenly Alliance."
Lin Feng looked at the item in his hand and shook his head. He thought to himself, I really can't figure out Xiao Chen's thoughts. Then, he carefully put it away and quickly caught up to Xiao Chen.
The two walked side by side under the blazing sun, gradually going far away.
