The Soul Battleground.
A duel mode that had never appeared before.
Its existence was taboo.
After all, the Ethereal Network was spread across the Empire and had countless users.
If people knew that the Ethereal Network, which was used daily, had the ability to take someone's life, it would cause chaos!
If Chen Xiao hadn't pushed him too far, Lin Qianji wouldn't have asked to use it.
Although the Ethereal Network was established by the Ten Greats, it was based on ancient technology that had been lost. Even the Ten Great Families didn't have complete control of it.
This meant that …
The Ten Great Families had the ability to summon the Soul Battleground.
But if they died on the Soul Battleground, they would die for real. Even the Ten Greats couldn't avoid it.
"However, agreeing to this challenge is your biggest mistake!"
Lin Qianji looked at Chu Wanqing, who was standing next to the Soul Battleground, and his face was full of mockery.
Although they couldn't control it completely, as one of the Ten Greats, the Lin Family still knew some loopholes that ordinary people couldn't.
The Soul Battleground wasn't perfect.
It had been sealed because of these loopholes. But only the Ten Greats knew about these loopholes, so they became the Lin Family's trump card!
"Sir is invincible."
In response, Chu Wanqing only smiled lightly, her smile full of confidence.
As she got to know Chen Xiao better and better, she had a superstitious trust in this mysterious young man.
As long as Chen Xiao made a move, nothing was impossible!
"Hmph, only now can you be so stubborn." Lin Qianji snorted, his tone disdainful. "When this kid dies, it will be the end of the Chu Family."
"Look, the battle has begun!"
"This Lin Clan member looks unfamiliar. Could he be a hidden expert?"
As the crowd exclaimed, the battle on the Soul Battleground finally began!
On the Soul Battleground.
A mysterious power descended, suppressing the two's cultivation to the peak of the Star rank.
This was a kind of comprehensive suppression. Not only was his cultivation base suppressed, but even his physique and spirit were suppressed.
"Kid, die!"
The middle-aged man from the Lin Family grinned. His fists glowed, and his body turned into a flowing light as he charged at Chen Xiao.
"It's the Flowing Light Fist!" Many spectators exclaimed.
The Flowing Light Fist was one of the secret skills of the Lin Family. The user would turn into a flowing light and possess terrifying speed.
In a battle of the same level, this kind of extreme speed could be said to be invincible.
"If it's just the Flowing Light Fist, it's far from enough."
Some people were confused.
Even Lin Baiming, a direct descendant of the Lin family, had suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Chen Xiao. The Lin family should be well aware that it was impossible to defeat that youth with just the power of the Flowing Light Fist.
So, what kind of trump card did this short-haired middle-aged man have that gave him the confidence to fight against Chen Xiao?
In the next second, everyone's doubts were answered.
That person turned into a stream of light and appeared in front of Chen Xiao in an instant. Then, flames rose from his body. From his cells to his soul, everything began to burn irreversibly!
Rumble!
"Kid, I'll be waiting for you in hell!"
With a hideous laugh, the short-haired middle-aged man from the Lin Family detonated himself on the spot.
The blazing energy was like a volcanic eruption. It turned into a destructive light rain, and engulfed Chen Xiao completely. It was a display of power that was far beyond the Star-rank!
"What the hell —"
At this moment, countless people were dumbfounded.
The Lin Family's method was extremely simple and violent, but it was also terrifying.
It seemed that for the Lin Family, human life was just a number. As long as they could kill Chen Xiao, they would pay any price.
"Self-detonation at the same level? I don't believe that you can remain indifferent to it!"
Lin Qianji stared at Chen Xiao viciously.
As expected.
Chen Xiao, who was engulfed by the violent energy, slightly shook his body and took a step back.
"It's really effective. Continue!"
Lin Qianji gave the order.
Right under the astounded gazes of everyone present, 10 figures appeared successively on the Soul Battle Arena.
Apparently, these ten people had planned this beforehand. As soon as they got on the Soul Battleground, they all rushed towards Chen Xiao like moths flying into a flame, and then they detonated themselves one after another!
Boom, boom, boom, boom —
The self-detonation of a martial artist was almost invincible to those at the same level, let alone ten people at the same time.
The entire Soul Battleground shook, and the ground rumbled. The combined power of the second self-detonation was close to that of a high-level Moon Warrior!
As for Chen Xiao's Chen Xiao, he had already been completely engulfed as if he had been erased from the world.
It wasn't until this moment that the audience came back to their senses from the shock.
A violent uproar instantly swept across the entire Soul Battleground!
"How can someone enter the Soul Battleground during a life-and-death duel?!"
"This is a duel where cultivations are suppressed. It's extremely difficult to resist the self-detonation of someone at the same level, let alone ten people at the same time!"
"I'm afraid this Chen kid is in trouble. There's a loophole in the rules of the Soul Battleground!"
The people's minds swayed, and their ears kept ringing. They became more and more fearful.
In order to kill Chen Xiao, it seemed that many people from the Lin Family had died.
However, if one thought about it carefully, they would know …
The warrior who launched the self-detonation did not need to be very strong, nor did he need to be very talented. All he needed was a group of Moon Warrior cultivators to kill Chen Xiao with the self-detonation!
Warriors of sacrifice were born to die.
"Continue!"
Lin Qianji's expression was indifferent. Before the battle was over, he waved his hand again. "Kill him. Only then will your deaths be worthwhile!"
This time, a total of one hundred warriors of sacrifice from the Lin Family stepped onto the Soul Battleground. Without a word, they pounced on Chen Xiao and detonated themselves at the same time!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At this moment, the surging flames and the deafening roars drowned the entire Soul Battleground.
For the Lin Family, one hundred Moon-ranked Warriors of sacrifice was not a price to pay.
If this was in the real world, these people would not even be able to do anything when facing Chen Xiao. But now, they could threaten his life!
"This move of the Lin Family … is too ruthless!"
"It's a fight between cultivators at the same level, but they arranged for more than one hundred warriors to self-detonate. I'm afraid they had planned this a long time ago!"
"Chen Xiao, let's see how you die this time!"
At this moment, Lin Qianji's face was a bit ferocious.
At this moment.
A strong wind suddenly blew in the Soul Battleground.
"Using cultivation suppression to make the warriors of sacrifice self-detonate. You're really creative."
A calm voice blew away the smoke and dust in the air.
Chen Xiao walked toward the Soul Battleground. His white robe and black hair danced in the wind. His eyes were filled with lightning, leaving a mark in the air.
Outside his body, there seemed to be a divine aura protecting him, making him look sacred and extraordinary.
"You, you, you …"
Lin Qianji's scalp went numb. Endless coldness filled the air, making him feel as if he had fallen from heaven to hell!
Everyone opened their eyes wide. The place was dead silent, as if even their heartbeats had stopped.
Facing the self-detonation of more than one hundred cultivators of the same level, Chen Xiao was not injured at all!
"Unfortunately, it's still not enough."
Chen Xiao walked to the edge of the Soul Battleground and curled his finger at Lin Qianji. His thunderous voice exploded in the air.
"Now, get up here and die!"
