The territory of Tai Luo City had been occupied by the Purgatory Ghost Race. It had become the Purgatory Ghost Race's first stop when they invaded the Profound World. It was also their current headquarters because the Purgatory Ghost Gate had opened there.
This place was extremely important. Therefore, the Purgatory Ghost Race had built a city in the Dark Desolate Domain to protect the Purgatory Ghost Gate.
Once it was destroyed, the two worlds would be separated and the Purgatory Ghost Race would no longer be able to invade the Tianyuan Sacred Domain.
The territory of Tai Luo City was close to the Bewildering Light Sea. It was also the easiest place for Chen Zong to reach.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Zong appeared at the border of Grand Luo City. He was very precise and didn't consume much of his Divine Sense. Using the Imperial Spirit Technique, he quickly recovered the Divine Sense he had consumed.
Chen Zong had entered the territory of Tai Luo City alone with his sword. It had to be said that he was bold and skilled.
Even though Chen Xiu had shared information with him through his soul, he was naturally aware of the situation of the Purgatory Ghoul Race. He knew that there were Ghoul Kings among the Purgatory Ghoul Race. Their combat strength was not something a Nine-Star Ghoul Race could compare to.
Even a nine-star martial artist who had lit up a gold star would not be a match for them.
However, if he was not a match for them, he could just leave and return to the Bewildering Light Sea. He would be invincible.
This was where his advantage lay. Of course, he would not waste it.
Chen Zong's Way of the Sword had never been a single style. Instead, it encompassed everything. Naturally, there were also variations within it.
Whether it changed or not depended on one's heart. The heart was the source and the will was the reason.
"This is a tiresome aura." Chen Zong appeared in the territory of Tai Luo City. Even though he was just at the border, he immediately felt a strong, cold, and domineering aura.
The cold aura seemed to be able to freeze one's Qi and blood. The blazing aura seemed to be able to burn the Spirit Sea. It was also domineering and could destroy everything.
One could tell autumn by watching a leaf fall.
Chen Zong's control of power was extremely sharp and precise. He was also very sensitive to aura. Therefore, from the aura that filled the air, he could infer that the power of the Purgatory Ghost Race was very high, very pure, and very powerful.
Not only could it destroy one's body, but it could also affect or even damage one's spiritual will.
There was no doubt that this was a very terrifying power. It was of a very high level, and it was of a higher level than the power cultivated by most of the Half-step Great Saints in the Tianyuan Sacred Domain.
After all, the Purgatory Ghoul Race's innate life essence was superior to the human race. They were a fighting race with astounding combat power.
Only a small number of cultivators who had obtained superb inheritances could hope to compete with him in terms of strength.
For example, his own [Taichu Sword Yuan Technique] could be compared to it, and his doppelganger Chen Xiu's Divine Killing Strength was only limited to the fourth level. Otherwise, it would be much stronger than the Purgatory Ghost Clan.
The next step would be to find the Ghost Race and fight them.
Even though he shared all the information and sights with Chen Xiu's soul, it was still not as profound as experiencing it himself.
Moreover, Chen Xiu now had a Nine-star combat strength, and he was an elite Nine-star. His Raging Asura form was even more terrifying.
After killing three Upper-Level Ghost Generals in a row, as the main body, there was no way he could lose to his doppelganger.
Then, where was the Ghost Race?
No matter how confident Chen Zong was, he would not recklessly charge into the enemy's base camp. Regardless of whether there was a way out, it would be too reckless.
Then, he would proceed slowly. First, he would look for wandering Ghosts. Ghost Soldiers would be fine too. He would personally test the Ghost Race's abilities.
Not long after, Chen Zong saw a small patrol team from the Purgatory Ghoul Race.
Now that the territory of Tai Luo City was occupied by the Purgatory Ghoul Race, it was naturally treated as their base camp. It was natural for them to send people to patrol to prevent any unexpected attacks and unnecessary losses.
There were a total of seven Ghosts in this small team. They were led by a Low-level Ghost General, and the other six were Upper-Level Ghost Soldiers. They could be considered a very powerful force.
Even if they encountered an Eight-Star combat strength cultivator, the Purgatory Ghoul Race's strong physique and strong vitality would be able to resist for a while. They would then send out a signal to inform other Ghost Race experts to come over.
This was also the terrifying part of the Purgatory Ghoul Race. They were born with a strong physique, and they had mastered terrifying internal cultivation. It was like a high level combination of Body Refining and Qi Refining.
He was excited to see them!
Although he already knew that these seven Ghosts were no match for him, Chen Zong was still itching to fight.
Strictly speaking, this was his first time facing the Purgatory Ghoul Race.
Chen Zong did not release all of his aura. Instead, he limited his aura to that of an ordinary Seven-Star Ghost.
Even if the Tianyuan Sacred Realm's consciousness awakened and the Battle Star manifested, it could not stop a person from hiding their aura and strength.
Naturally, the ghost clan patrol team also discovered Chen Zong.
"Human!"
"Eat him."
Chen Zong had obtained Chen Xiu's memories, so he naturally understood the Ghost Race's language. He could understand a few words, and the content was very cruel and bloody.
The seven Ghosts immediately rushed over and formed a semicircle. They were afraid that Chen Zong would escape.
Streaks of strong aura directly locked onto Chen Zong. The cold and fierce aura was as strong as a spear and a halberd. It was merciless.
Chen Zong saw a battle star appear in the sky above the seven ghouls.
Since he was in the Taixuan Realm, he was also affected by its consciousness. Once he activated his power, he would manifest Battle Stars.
Of course, the number of Battle Stars manifested depended on how much power was activated.
The seven Ghosts naturally used their full strength to prevent Chen Zong from escaping.
Therefore, Chen Zong could clearly see their Battle Stars.
Most of the Battle Stars of the seven Ghosts were silver-white. A few of them were bronze or black iron, but there was no gold.
Chen Zong understood the meaning of the Battle Stars' colors.
For example, the most powerful Ghost Race had seven Battle Stars, which represented a Seven-Star Ghost's combat strength. However, the Battle Stars were mainly silver-white. Six of them were silver-white, while the seventh was black-iron. This represented the Ghost Race's combat strength, which was equivalent to an ordinary Seven-Star Ghost's combat strength.
However, it was not that simple.
Human cultivators were divided into Ordinary and Elite. A few could be stronger than Elite. If they were to be divided according to the color of their Battle Stars, they would be silver-white.
That was a talent that belonged to the top geniuses.
The color of the Battle Stars not only represented the strength of those of the same Star Rank, but also the depth of one's potential.
Silver-white potential was naturally not something that bronze could compare to.
For example, when a cultivator was at One-Star, they could only make their Battle Stars bronze. After they broke through, they could only make their Battle Stars bronze.
That was the height that one could reach after unlocking their potential.
If one could continuously unlock their potential to the extreme at the beginning and achieve silver-white, then they could also achieve silver-white in the future. Their combat strength would be stronger than those of the same Star Rank.
That being said, the fact that he had a golden Battle Star meant that he had unlocked his potential to the highest level.
Chen Zong had not seen the Battle Stars of other human cultivators, so he was not very clear. However, each of the seven Ghosts in front of him had a silver-white Battle Star. The last Battle Star was either black-iron or bronze, which also meant that they could make their Battle Stars silver-white.
This was a kind of height.
An astonishing race, astonishing potential.
As this thought flashed through his mind, five golden Battle Stars lit up above Chen Zong. The sixth Battle Star was bronze.
They could hide their strength, but they could not hide the potential and height that they had unlocked in the past.
Thus, when they saw the five golden battle stars, the seven ghost race individuals' eyes all turned green, and then red, red light shooting out from them.
There was no doubt that this was the height that only a supreme genius of the human race could achieve.
A genius like this would have an even more delicious life.
Moreover, now that the will of the world had begun to awaken, the amount of Karmic Luck that prodigies carried would increase as well. If they were killed, their Karmic Luck would dissipate, and it would damage the will of the world's fate as well.
This would be even more helpful to the Purgatory Ghost Race when they attacked this world and turned it into a Ghost Domain.
Killing a supreme genius like this would have an even greater impact on this world than killing one thousand or even ten thousand ordinary cultivators.
Kill!
Show no mercy!
Chen Zong strode forward, as if he were taking a leisurely stroll. It was as if he were not facing a group of ferocious monsters, but rather a pleasing sight to behold.
In the blink of an eye, the seven Ghosts spread out, forming an encirclement and mercilessly attacking.
Spears pierced through the air, and black sabers split the earth.
The martial arts of the Purgatory Ghost Race did not pay attention to any transformations. They focused on direct killing and pure destruction, unleashing their terrifying strength to the extreme.
Every strike was born for battle and slaughter. It was extremely simple, but not simple at all. It was as if they had returned to their natural state.
Chen Zong did not immediately use his full strength to kill them. Instead, he drew his sword and countered their moves.
Fighting one against seven, he carefully experienced the mysteries of the Purgatory Ghost Race's martial arts.
The original body and the clone both cultivated the Way of the Sword, but simply put, the original body's Way of the Sword was purer, while the clone's Way of the Sword was not the complete Way of the Sword. Cultivation methods and other powers still accounted for the majority.
Gathering the strengths of a hundred schools of thought and assimilating everything into one's own Way of the Sword, one's own Way of the Sword was supreme.
And now, Chen Zong was merely walking on this path. From the past until now, he had constantly reorganized, changed, and perfected himself time and time again to walk the Way of the Sword.
This was also why he had constantly changed the sword moves he created. Each time, it was a kind of improvement.
No matter how ferocious and violent the attacks of the seven Ghosts were, they were unable to break through Chen Zong's sword encirclement and were completely blocked.
In just ten breaths, Chen Zong had thoroughly examined the mysteries of the seven Ghosts' martial arts.
Then, it was time to counterattack.
In an instant, the sixth Battle Star above Chen Zong's head turned golden, and then the seventh Battle Star appeared, turning golden as well.
As the sword slashed out, the sword light rippled like water. When the seven ghosts saw the Seven Stars of Gold, they were stunned. Under the sword light, they could not resist at all. They were directly cut off and their lives were extinguished.
Immediately after, Chen Zong seemed to see seven translucent streams of colorful Qi rising from the heads of the seven Ghost clansmen and entering the void. At the same time, seven streams of pure black Qi emanated from the seven Ghost clansmen.
