Xiao Chen looked around and found another forested knoll not far away. He drew back another 200 feet and looked at the six fireballs bobbing gently around his palm. In a throwing motion, he swung his arm, casting all six of the fireballs at his target. The fireballs intertwined in one, shooting straight like a comet together.
The fiery comet consisting of six fireballs first circled around its mark, reducing everything in its path to cinders before splitting back into six fiery little suns. Xiao Chen could already feel the heat from where he stood. But the fireballs merely surrounded the little hill; they did not explode. Realizing this, Xiao Chen muttered a spell; a variation he saw from the manual. Immediately the fireballs converged upon the forested knoll.
First, there was a huge noise like a clap of thunder, then the ground trembled beneath him. A disastrous explosion ensued and the forested knoll was utterly devoured within its wrathful force. A hug
It didn't take long for Qingluan and the rest to return. Xiao Chen looked at them and asked, "Are you all alright?" Qingluan joined his side and leaned into his ear to whisper, "There's a place called Landscape Park in the west district. It has something to do with the attack this time. I think it's where the Fallen Immortals Sect temporarily is." Xiao Chen nodded. "I understand. Let it be for now. Don't take any reckless actions." Ziyun'er said, "But are we leaving it just like that?" Xiao Chen shook his head. "It's fortune that everyone is fine. Leave it be. Don't move recklessly." "But they really overdid it this time," Ziyun'er said in anger as she scanned the ruined courtyard. He didn't reply. Qingluan shot Ziyun'er a look. "Enough. Don't keep harping on it." Ziyun'er looked away, but her fists were clenched so hard that her bones creaked. Xiao Chen took a deep breath. "Enough. It'
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes when he saw that this man was almost as fast as his Immortal-override Steps. He said coldly, "Hand over my friend." Traceless for Ten Miles put on a weak smile. "I was wondering what you wanted to do when you asked for my name. Did you come here to save your friend? I'm afraid you're too late." "Where is she?!" an impatient Qingluan demanded. Xiao Chen didn't waste his breath. He moved his feet, charging into the hall. Traceless for Ten Miles followed suit and blocked him. The two of them collided, causing dust to fly up all around them. "Move aside!" Traceless for Ten Miles smiled weakly. "Elder Brother has given that woman to Second Brother. Naturally, you can only enter once he's done with his business." Qingluan's expression fell. "What did you say?!" Xiao Chen's murderous aura rose sharply. He abruptly hit Traceless for Ten Miles in the chest but the lat
"Tell me. What will it take for you to release her?" Xiao Chen asked emotionlessly. One-dot Red smiled. "Release her? Impossible. It also won't be impossible for you to leave with her, not even you alone. Your only hope is to win this fight." Suddenly, he patted his forehead with his finger. "I've nearly forgotten this. Your orthodox sects have too many rules and regulations; it won't be easy for you to let go of them and kill freely. Your people are regressing precisely because you wallow in your ancient learnings. We're different. We'll kill if we want to; we face no restrictions. Our own philosophy is that the weak will always be prey to the strong." "Hehe, is that so?" Xiao Chen sneered, finally understanding that the Fallen Immortals Sect was a demonic sect. Demonic sects operated outside of the rules and restrictions of the Immortal's Practice. Even though these sects weren't as cruel to the world as devils' sects were, t
"I'm alright now. Don't waste True Energy on me anymore," Xiao Chen said as he strenuously sat upright. Li Muxue didn't reply. Luo Shangyan looked at him and said softly, "Get some rest in the next few days." She then walked out of the house. "Rest well." With a gentle sigh, Li Muxue left as well. Both of them wanted to see him stay safe without risking his life, but they knew this was asking for the impossible. Xiao Chen sighed and resumed lying on the bed while quietly staring at the setting sun outside the window. When nighttime arrived, a Jade Qing Sect disciple delivered food to him. He didn't eat immediately. He had the disciple leave it on the table instead. Before long, Zi Mo entered the house. His head-to-toe purple attire made him look like he was in high spirits. Catching sight of the untouched food on the table, he smiled. "What's wrong? Have your cultivation reached to the point where you no longer ne
"What's wrong, Junior Brother Xiao?" Seeing Xiao Chen stopping in his tracks, Yu Yifeng questioned him before following his line of sight. He saw a red-clothed young woman in the prime of her youth. It was Su Wan. She was momentarily stupefied when she spotted Xiao Chen but her next reaction was unsheathing her Teal Frost Sword. Back in the Skygale Sect in the Human World, Xiao Chen took her as a hostage and Shangguan Yan later teased her on the ship. To the Eldest Young Lady of the Su family, this was enough for her to see Xiao Chen as her greatest foe. Her action immediately drew the attention of those around her. Next to her was a white-clothed man with a folding fan in his hand. The man was tall, slender, and handsome. Many ladies nearby couldn't help stealing glances at him. Seeing Su Wan unsheathe her sword, he frowned and asked, "What are you doing?" "Brother Zimu, it's him. He was the one who nearly killed
Recovering his senses, Xiao Chen looked in her direction and saw about a dozen or so people bearing white-colored badges blocking Huangfu Xin'er and her group. Behind Huangfu Xin'er was Chu Lingjiao and a few others. Evidently, this was a situation where the majority was bullying the minority. Many had gathered around to watch the commotion. Xiao Chen frowned in annoyance. He was about to step forward when Qingluan stopped him. "Don't go, Master. She's that woman at the Myriad Immortals Pavilion that day." Suddenly, a cold aura permeated the square. Xiao Chen felt a chill run down his spine. The aura came from Huangfu Xin'er. It was the same aura from the mysterious black-clothed woman who won the auction for that book of ancient cultivation method at the Myriad Immortals Pavilion. No wonder he had found it to be so familiar. How could it be her...? Everyone around felt this cold aura as well. Silence instantly fell over the do
One-dot Red sneered and ignored Zuoqiu Yang. He led his group up to the registration platform. The Elder in-charge frowned when he saw them. "Fallen Immortals Sect?" "Yes," Traceless for Ten Miles answered dully. The Elder in-charge didn't ask any further and registered all of their names. "Which continent are you representing?" Even though asking this made him look unprofessional, he must admit that he didn't know where this so-called Fallen Immortals Sect came from. One-dot Red smiled. "We don't represent any continent, only the Fallen Immortals Sect." His words made it clear that he couldn't care less about the five continents. Frowning, the Elder in-charge handed them ten black-colored badges. These badges indicated that they were independents. For the past several hundred years, nearly no one had ever worn these badges. He then handed them a pouch to keep the Hearts of Illusory Moon but One-dot Red didn't tak
The shadow moved so swiftly that no one could keep track of it at all. Mu Shaoai reacted instinctively and unsheathed his Immortal's Sword to block his attacker. The shadow slammed into his sword, producing a loud clanging sound. To everyone's surprise, the crash sent Mu Shaoai staggering backward. Before he could react, the shadow reappeared behind him and slammed into his back. "Watch out, Junior Brother!" The moment Yu Yifeng yelled, he moved his fingers to cast a spell. An Immortal's Sword turned into a drawn-out radiance and lunged at the shadow behind Mu Shaoai. It was the Divine Weapon of the Archean Eon: the Startling Rainbow Sword. After the Startling Rainbow Sword cleaved the shadow, it emitted a high-pitched screech. Even now, the others couldn't make out what creature it was. Yu Yifeng dashed to Mu Shaoai's side. The creature continued to wail in a hair-raising manner. Suddenly, it split into two, and then four, and
