Chapter 114 - 114: An Intense Battle Breaks out
He had fought with Ye Ruxue before. Although it was only for a short time, he could tell that Ye Ruxue was not simple.
Although her strength was not as good as his, her methods were far superior.
If he was not mistaken, she should have used a saint-level divine power!
If he couldn’t get the Vermilion Bird’s blood, it wouldn’t be bad to get a saint-level cultivation method or divine power.
Losing out in one area while gaining in another wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
“Understood!”
“Your Highness, please be assured. With the two of us here, we will definitely not disappoint you!”
When the two of them heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up and they hurriedly bowed respectfully.
In their opinion, as long as they did not attack Su Chen, dealing with anyone else present shouldn’t be an issue!
After all, the two of them were also prodigies of Dashang.
For someone under twenty-three to cultivate to the God Altar Realm, how lacking could their aptitude be?
At the very least, their aptitude far exceeded the many prodigies present!
“Go!”
The black-robed man gently nodded, waved his sleeves, and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Su Chen and he said in a cold voice, “It’s time to settle the matter between us!”
It was fine if the Vermillion Bird’s blood was stolen, but being schemed against was the greater humiliation.
This was the eternal wound in his heart.
If he could not wash away this disgrace today, he would never forget it for the rest of his life!
As soon as he finished speaking, killing intent erupted from the black-robed man’s body.
He took a step forward, and all kinds of laws interweaved under his feet, turning into a golden path leading to Su Chen.
“Swoosh!”
His entire body was like a stream of light as he instantly arrived in front of Su Chen. He stretched out his five fingers and five thick black lines shot out, evolving in the void.
In the end, it turned into a cage that flickered with black light and fell towards Su Chen.
“Aren’t you overestimating yourself a little too much?”
Su Chen said coldly.
He glanced at Ye Ruxue from the corner of his eye.
Seeing that she was not in much danger, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
Immediately after, he turned around and looked at the black-robed man. His body rose into the air as he swept out a kick.
Boom!
The vast spiritual energy was like a river bursting its dam, shattering the cage into pieces.
“Bang!”
Then, he punched out again. The force pierced the void. Billions of mighty fist radiance turned into a blazing sun, rumbling as it collided with the black-robed man.
“Boom!”
An earth-shattering explosion rang out.
The place where Su Chen and the black-robed man were fighting was instantly enveloped by all kinds of laws. Spiritual energy surged like a vast ocean, whipped up into layers upon layers of huge waves that swept across heaven and earth.
On the other side, Ye Ruxue was also fighting with the black-robed man’s two subordinates.
Although Ye Ruxue’s cultivation level was lower than the two of them, with the help of the broken formation, victory and defeat remained hard to determine for the time being.
However, at this moment, Gu Xuanyun from the Mystery Darkness Sect, Shi An from the Body Refining Sect, and the others rushed over.
Though they were all injured at this moment, they still had the strength to fight.
They now had two choices.
One was to join Su Chen’s battlefield and snatch the Vermillion Bird’s blood from him.
The second was to join the battlefield of the mysterious person and take revenge for being suppressed just now!
The few of them stood where they were and considered for a long time. In the end, they chose to take revenge.
In their opinion, the battle on Su Chen’s side was too fierce. In just a few moments, the mountain was about to collapse.
Moreover, Su Chen was too powerful. He had completely gained the upper hand over the black-robed man in a short period of time, it seemed he would emerge victorious very soon.
Even if they joined the battle now, it was impossible to turn the tables.
Since they couldn’t snatch the Vermilion Bird’s blood, taking revenge was clearly the better option.
Most importantly, attacking the mysterious person would not provoke Su Chen!
The mysterious man was only at the eighth level of the Qi Sea Realm, so they would not be seen as bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
Of course, no one treated her as a Qi Sea Realm cultivator.
Almost everyone tacitly assumed that this mysterious person’s true strength was on the same level as Su Chen’s.
If they could defeat or even suppress her…
Then in the future, they could add another glorious achievement to their journey in the East Barrens.
“Surrender!”
Gu Xuanyun took the lead and shouted.
He stretched out his hand, and spiritual energy surged, vast and mighty.
A palm as black as ink covered the sky like a dark cloud, pressing down upon the mysterious person.
At this moment, Gu Xuanyun’s eyes shone with excitement.
He did not dare to go against Su Chen anymore.
After all, Su Chen was the ruthless person who killed Situ Feng.
What if he offended Su Chen and then got killed by him?
Everyone was in the Hundred Demon Battlefield. Even if they were killed by Su Chen, no one would uphold justice for them.
However, suppressing this mysterious person together with the others gave him no psychological pressure.
After all, this person did not have any backing, and her style of doing things was very similar to that of a rogue cultivator.
If he could capture her, he could use this opportunity to curry favor with the black-robed man.
Who knows, he might be able to take the opportunity to be associated with the Dashang Empire.
Once he had this connection, who would dare to provoke him?
“Boom!”
Beside Gu Xuanyun, the others were also doing their best to attack.
“Roar!”
The leader of the Purple Rose Sect formed a seal with his hands, and a true dragon appeared behind him, filled with thunder and lightning, and it was as if a lightning dragon had descended, letting out a dragon roar that shook the nine heavens.
“Go!”
The ferocious and tyrannical lightning dragon charged toward Ye Ruxue with unstoppable power.
“Bang!”
Shi An of the Body Refining Sect was even more terrifying.
He was like an ancient god of war that had awakened. He struck out several palms in a row. Each palm carried a terrifying power of blood and Qi, like an erupting volcano.
The expressions of all the spectators changed.
“Oh no!”
Ye Ruxue looked at the bizarre scene in the sky and thought to herself.
She could handle one against two or even one against three!
However, the problem was that there were too many people attacking her at the moment, eight or nine in total.
Each of them was a prodigy of the young generation of Dachu. Even with the help of the broken formation, she could not hold on at this moment.
She raised her head slightly and looked at the battlefield where Su Chen was. She pursed her lips wordlessly.
She knew that as long as she exposed her identity, Su Chen would immediately help her.
However, when she thought of the enemies she was facing, she dispelled this thought.
There were simply too many enemies!
If she exposed her identity now, she would undoubtedly be making enemies for Su Chen.
Moreover…
With the memories of her previous life, after ten thousand years, she had long developed a competitive personality.
She did not want to stand behind Su Chen either.
She hoped that she could help Su Chen one day, instead of relying on Su Chen to solve every danger alone!
“Buzz…”
Ye Ruxue’s black robe fluttered in the wind.
She stretched out her white hand and waved lightly. The killing formation instantly activated.
Countless sword auras gathered and formed a sea of sword lights under her feet.
Then, she pointed.
“Clang! Clang! Clang!”
Boundless sword light shot forth against the heavens and collided with all kinds of divine powers.
“Boom!”
Terrifying aftershocks spread out.
At this moment, the entire mountain was trembling. Countless rocks pierced the air as dust filled the sky. Innumerable lights flickered non-stop.
The powerful killing formation that had enveloped the black mountain had completely disappeared at this moment..
