Although he was caught off-guard, Xiao Chen could see Wan Gufeng's intent to kill him. The venom in his eyes was simply unmistakable! In his haste, Xiao Chen cast all six of the remaining flames in his hand at Wan Gufeng who was suddenly on the offensive, hoping this would stave him off. There was no more time to worry about the unsteady control of his magic, especially now with a strong enemy charging at him!
But by now, Wan Gufeng knew how dangerous the flames could be, no matter how small and weak they looked. He tilted himself and evaded the flames and dove for Xiao Chen, thinking that success was his as the little flames fell to the ground behind him. But from the corners of his eyes, he looked with horror as the flames that flew past him turned back for him!
"IMPOSSIBLE!"
He croaked with shock and cursed as the six little fiery orbs veered back, their little flames biting at his heels. He twisted himself and barely avoided the flames a
"It's too late," Xiao Chen replied bluntly, his eyes glowering coldly. He clenched his fist and snapped the jade note, crushing it into countless shards and splinters. Wan Gufeng immediately turned berserk, his face filled with hatred and rage, "HOW DARE YOU! YOU FOOLISH PUP! I'LL REMEMBER THIS! I'LL HAVE YOUR SOUL REDUCED INTO BITS THAT YOU'LL NEVER..." Before he could finish, he vanished. Xiao Chen crumbled to the ground and fell on his back on top of the soft, fluffy grass. He heaved a long drag of breath, finally at ease. The remaining members of the Order of the Divine Fire, realizing their fate now that their leader had been conquered, quickly fled towards the southwest, looking pathetic and miserable. "Qingluan," Xiao Chen muttered softly. Qingluan immediately understood her master's wish. With a knowing glance at Ziyun'er, the two girls immediately warped into two bolts of light, one green and the other pu
Noticing the sudden change in his expression, Yu Yifeng asked, "What's wrong, Junior Brother Xiao?" It took some time before Xiao Chen responded. He shook his head and said, "Nothing." He got up and walked outside, where he spread his Divine Sense almost a mile away. Nothing strange appeared. He added a few layers of defensive formations onto the cave entrance before walking back in. His Divine Sense was exceptional in that it could be released and retrieved at will. This ability could no longer be found in cultivators these days. In that split second earlier, however, he noticed a wisp of Divine Sense entering the cave. Like him, someone had materialized his Divine Sense as well. That person retrieved his Divine Sense immediately, having noticed that Xiao Chen had discovered him. He had met countless capable cultivators in his year in the Violet Manor, but never someone who could materialize his Divine Sense the way he could.
"Abyss, Abyss of the Nether Spirits! Meow!" Immortal Lingzhi yelped in fear with his eyes closed. He was so terrified that he couldn't stop shuddering. Xiao Chen reached out and caught Immortal Lingzhi with his psychokinesis. "Leopard Cat Spirit! You know something, don't you? Tell me how to leave this place!" "N-No… I know nothing!" Immortal Lingzhi kept shaking his head out of fear. Suddenly, a spectral silhouette formed out of black fog attacked them at a startling speed. A frigid aura instantly shrouded the place as sinister hissing resounded endlessly. "Scram!" Xiao Chen yelled. He slammed his palm into the silhouette, which screeched like a wailing ghost upon contact. Hearing such a noise in such a cold, sinister night made him shiver and his scalp tingle. "Me-meow! I smell death!" Shaking out of fear, Immortal Lingzhi leaped into Xiao Chen's embrace. He exposed only his head and
"Esteemed Senior, what's inside the ancient scroll? Who entrusted you to protect it?" Xiao Chen finally came up with these questions after sorting out his thoughts to the best of his ability. The figure finally moved as he heaved a sigh. "It's been so long. Generation after generation has come and go. To be honest, I can't remember why I have to protect the ancient scroll anymore…" This made Xiao Chen feel an overwhelming sense of powerlessness. It had an impossible task trying to learn what had happened thousands of years ago. Judging from the one-half of the scroll that the Xianyong Sect possessed, the scroll seemed to contain vague details about the fall of the Immortals and Devils. There was even a mention of the Three Emperors Grand Formation, whom Xian'er was a Formation Spirit of. These mysteries were becoming increasingly impossible to unravel. He was also certain that the scroll wasn't limited to its writing. There was likely a spac
"What?!" Xiao Chen punched the wall of the cave, causing the entire cave to shake and the dust inside to fall. His fist was so tightly clenched that his bones were creaking in protest. He asked coldly, "Which sect did this?" "Fallen Immortals Sect," Yu Yifeng replied, frowning. "Fallen Immortals Sect…" A sinister smile crossed Xiao Chen's face. He looked at everyone. "How are your injuries?" Li Muxue shook her head. "We managed to escape in time thanks to Senior Brother Yifeng's Teleportation Formation." Xiao Chen's knuckles cracked as he clenched his fists. The Fallen Immortals Sect must have occupied the paradise-like land they were in yesterday as well. He said solemnly, "Very well. Let's seek our revenge!" Yu Yifeng stopped him. Shaking his head, he said, "The Fallen Immortals Sect is too powerful. We've been waiting for you to see if we can find some Hearts of Illusory Moon nearby on the last da
Bulging blue veins appeared on Zuoqiu Yang's forehead. His eyes were bloodshot, though no one knew if it was because of Xiao Chen or because he was practicing some demonic arts. He bellowed, "Xiao Chen! Prepare to die today!" He abruptly attacked Xiao Chen. When Xiao Chen felt a strong gale slamming into him, he immediately lifted his palm to block the attack. The collision of forces resounded and he found himself staggering backward. To his surprise, he felt as if he wasn't a match for Zuoqiu Yang. Suddenly, he noticed a cold, murderous aura piercing his back. The aura originated from Huangfu Xin'er! A pained screech shattered the air as a red orb of light descended. Traceless for Ten Miles, who was trying to ambush Xiao Chen, had his chest ripped open in five places. Blood gushed out of his wounds. Huangfu Xin'er appeared beside Xiao Chen, with her maroon-colored nails increasing to a length of three inches. Her five fingers
Jade Terrace Mountain plunged into chaos. Countless cultivators were teleported out of it, with One-dot Red, Su Zimu, and Zuoqiu Yang being the last ones to leave. Zuoqiu Yang's chest was ripped open in five places and the wounds were oozing blood. The Elders in charge of the teleportation were spitting blood on the ground. A disciple hastily ran up to the Elders of the league and said, "Elders, strange phenomena is taking place in the Forest of Illusory Moon. The Teleportation Formation that you left behind has collapsed. The four Elders in charge of the teleportation are seriously hurt!" "What did you say?!" The Elders of the league were shocked. "Elders..." A disciple holding a geomantic compass in hand rushed up to them. "Grade 3, Grade 6, and Grade 7 districts have vanished from the map!" "What?!" One of the Elders turned pale with fright. Another immediately said, "Tell the others to do a roll call at once a
Startled, Xiao Chen looked at him. "You... You're still alive?" "Meow! I'll still live long and well after you die!" Zhiluan was hopping mad. Xiao Chen shook his head with great force, trying to recall what happened that day. One-dot Red and Su Zimu still crushed their jade notes in the end, but Zuoqiu Yang refused to let him go and used a terrifyingly powerful move to strike him. Huangfu Xin'er unexpectedly ran over and took the hit for him. Then, the skies and ground collapsed and he lost his consciousness. "Xin'er! Xin'er!" He abruptly rose to his feet and used all of his strength to yell for Huangfu Xin'er. However, he couldn't even see the shadow of a person in all these snow. "Meow! Don't yell, kid! You'll cause an avalanche!" Zhiluan was so frightened that he wanted to take flight but tried as he might, he couldn't unfold his wings. "Avalanche..." Xiao Chen sat on the ground helplessly. If he
