Chapter 1216
The voice came from Zi Chen. He suddenly appeared behind the crowd, causing their expressions to change.
Everyone turned their heads or raised their heads to look behind them. Then, they saw Zi Chen.
He was still the same Zi Chen from before, but there were no obvious wounds on his body. Only a few faint white marks could be seen. The six wings on his back were still flapping, and he held the terrifying long saber tightly in his hand.
At present, Zi Chen's expression was calm, but he gave off an extremely dangerous feeling. He didn't need to deliberately put on a strong front like before, but it was enough to make people tremble in fear.
There were at least dozens of cultivators standing in front of Zi Chen. However, as Zi Chen moved forward with his saber, they couldn't help but retreat.
Because Wu Huan's reaction was slower, he quickly arrived in front of them.
Zi Chen pointed at the cauldron in Wu Huan's hand and said, "Sorry, this is mine."
"Uh." Wu Huan was stunned.
"This is mine," Zi Chen repeated.
Wu Huan reacted and hugged the cauldron tightly in his arms. Then, he subconsciously took a few steps back. He looked around and said to the other cultivators, "What are you afraid of? He's alone. We have a group."
Behind him, a cultivator said in a trembling voice, "But he can kill a group by himself."
Wu Huan was furious and shouted, "What are you afraid of? Don't forget that he's seriously injured. Although he's here now, he's still trying to scare us. Kill him, and the treasures on him will be ours."
Wu Huan continued to boost their morale. "For the treasures, let's do it."
After saying that, without waiting for the others to cooperate, the lightning wings on Zi Chen's back continued flapping. Then, his body charged forward in a straight line.
In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Wu Huan, and the long saber in his hand slashed down fiercely.
"Ah!" Wu Huan screamed in fear and tried to block with the cauldron.
Unfortunately, he was a step too late.
Puff.
The saber flashed, and there was a soft sound. Wu Huan's head flew up.
The cauldron began to emit flames. Fire dragons appeared, one biting Wu Huan's head, the other wrapped around his body, and then sucked him into the cauldron.
"Ah."
When Gu Kuan's saber was cut down, screams rang out from all around. The fear in the hearts of the crowd had finally reached its limit.
They screamed in terror, and then fled in terror. They did not have the slightest bit of will to fight.
Seeing this, Zi Chen felt relieved. The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. Then, he took a step forward and walked towards Zeith.
Zeith had come to the Warty Python Tribe at the same time as Zi Chen, but he had always found him unpleasant to the eye. Today, he might as well end it.
"Pu."
The blade flashed. Zeith couldn't dodge in time and his head was chopped off.
"Pu."
Another Emptiness Realm Expert who arrived at the same time as Zi Chen was killed. The stunned expression on his face before he died was completely frozen.
Killing two Emptiness Realm Experts in the blink of an eye was undoubtedly the greatest shock to the others. They didn't care anymore and started to run for their lives.
At this moment, they gave up on counterattacking and chose to believe in luck. They believed that Zi Chen would not kill them immediately, giving them time to escape.
"Pu." "Pu."
The long blade kept slashing. The blade flashed and disappeared, and heads flew up one after another.
They originally had the chance to kill Zi Chen together, but they gave up because of fear and were directly killed by Zi Chen.
After losing the ability to resist, these people seemed to be easier to kill.
Zi Chen killed in front, and the fire dragons kept appearing behind him, returning with corpses one after another …
It was still the same sentence. There were many of them, and they were fleeing in all directions. It was simply unrealistic for Zi Chen to kill all of them.
Now, Zi Chen could only choose some Emptiness Realm Experts to kill, but he couldn't kill all of them.
After killing all the Emptiness Realm Experts in one direction, there were no traces of cultivators on the horizon. Zi Chen looked around and saw nothing.
"Pu."
Zi Chen put away his blade, but he couldn't help but cough up blood. Then, he suppressed his injuries and fled this place as fast as he could.
Zi Chen fled for thousands of miles in one breath. Then, he found a dense forest, and in the dense forest, he found a giant mountain. He blasted a big hole at the bottom of the giant mountain and rushed in. Then, he used his elemental energy to cover the big hole.
Zi Chen sat cross-legged and began to heal his injuries.
His injuries were very serious. Previously, he was only suppressing them. Now that they had completely flared up, it would take a long time for him to fully recover.
…
Within a day, two tribes had disappeared from this area.
Compared to the Chas tribe, the Rich Python tribe was more famous. When the news of the Rich Python tribe's disappearance spread, the people of the other tribes were also surprised.
Especially the people of these tribes. After absorbing some of the Rich Python tribe's cultivators and learning about the cause and effect of the Rich Python tribe's disappearance, they became even more shocked.
Zi Chen, a mere Earth Prime cultivator, had actually succeeded in killing Rich Python and Chas. Moreover, killing Emptiness Realm Experts above his level was as easy as killing chickens or dogs.
Of course, this wasn't the reason for everyone's shock. The real reason was the two treasures on his body, as well as the one Chas used in his deathmatch with the Rich Python.
An Earth Prime cultivator with three treasures on his body, this undoubtedly tempted many people.
Therefore, in the following period of time, Zi Chen became the main target of several tribes. His portrait also spread among the cultivators of several tribes. Just like when he was chased by many forces in the Saint Realm, Zi Chen became the target of pursuit after the news of his treasures spread.
While the cultivators of the outside world were still looking for Zi Chen, the person involved was healing his injuries.
After his elemental energy was depleted, he would absorb the law fragments to replenish it. When he was full, Zi Chen once again dispelled the spatial energy in his body, then used his life force to heal his injuries.
If it were anyone else who suffered this kind of attack, the high-level elemental energy would have invaded their body and killed them. Just like Jesse and Aude, the main reason they died was because they couldn't dispel the spatial energy in their bodies.
Zi Chen could only dispel the energy in his body, but not others. Naturally, he couldn't save the two of them.
Day by day, Zi Chen's injuries were gradually suppressed and then improved. The fact that he was able to survive under such circumstances was enough to prove how powerful Zi Chen's comprehension of the law was.
Two months later, Zi Chen's injuries were finally fully healed.
In the outside world, several tribes had been searching for Zi Chen for several months, but they still couldn't find any clues.
This area was very large, and the distance between the tribes required flying boats. It was easier said than done to find a person in such a large area, and they also had to face some battle beasts.
However, it had only been two months, so everyone was still very patient.
Suddenly, a beast roar sounded from the depths of the forest. When the two cultivators in front heard it, their expressions changed.
The two of them looked at each other, and one of them said, "Let's not go too deep."
The other cultivator nodded. "That makes sense. It's said that Zi Chen is only at the Earth Prime level. If he dares to go too deep, he will definitely be torn to shreds by the battle beasts."
"A soldier level battle beast can kill an Emptiness Realm expert, and a general level battle beast can rival a Corporeal Realm expert. I also don't think he can go too deep."
As the two of them talked, they turned around and headed in another direction.
However, the two of them were still talking along the way.
"It's been a few months. Just our Hearthstone Tribe alone has sent many people. In addition to the other tribes, there are many Emptiness Realm experts, but we haven't found a single Earth Prime. Do you think Zi Chen is still alive?"
"It's hard to say. Maybe he encountered a battle beast and was killed by it. Maybe the great treasure was swallowed by the battle beast. However, if that's the case, then we have to send many Emptiness Realm experts to kill the battle beast. With just the two of us, we are purely courting death."
Just as the two of them left the forest, a person walked out. It was Zi Chen.
"The Hearthstone Tribe and the other tribes. It seems like the news has been leaked. If we continue to wander around, I'm afraid we will be discovered. At that time, Corporeal Realm experts will naturally come."
He was very clear about Zi Chen's current strength. He couldn't do anything to a Corporeal Realm expert. He was only able to kill the two of them last time because of pure luck.
Zi Chen muttered to himself for a while, then said to himself, "Yes, the most important thing right now is to find a safe place to cultivate. My current strength is too weak. It's better to work hard to break through to the Emptiness Realm. Only then will it be safer. There is still room for improvement in my Thunder Wings. I need to refine them."
In this world, finding a safe place was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. However, it wasn't difficult for Zi Chen. He went deep into the forest.
As long as it was a place that humans couldn't find, it would be a safe place. Zi Chen's destination was the place where the battle beasts lived.
The battle beasts were very strong. A soldier level battle beast could fight against an Emptiness Realm expert, and a general level battle beast could fight against a Corporeal Realm expert. The area where the battle beasts lived was definitely a safe area.
After walking for dozens of miles in the forest, Zi Chen saw a living battle beast for the first time.
This was a battle beast that looked very much like a leopard. Its body was covered with fine black scales, and its entire body was emitting a tyrannical battle aura. The two sharp teeth in its mouth were like two scimitars, directly growing out of its mouth and emitting a cold light.
This was a soldier level beast. At this moment, it was staring coldly at Zi Chen, an outsider.
Zi Chen also looked at the battle beast. His eyes flashed with excitement because he was finally going to fight a battle beast.
"Roar."
The battle beast roared angrily and rushed towards Zi Chen. Its movements were accompanied by a strong and pure power. Its claws were like sharp weapons.
"Peng."
Zi Chen raised his fist to block the attack. There was a vibration, and both of their figures swayed.
The battle beast landed on the ground. However, it immediately jumped up and stabbed its two sharp teeth towards Zi Chen.
"Swoosh."
Zi Chen moved his feet and blocked the opponent's attack. Then, he punched the back of the opponent's waist.
A strong force shook out and directly sent the battle beast flying.
After a short fight, Zi Chen had a good understanding of battle beasts.
As a soldier beast, it was stronger than some of the strange beasts in the Tianwu Continent. However, it couldn't be compared with those higher life forms, such as the Demon Ape, the Dragon Tiger, and the Torvosaurus. Even if they were at the same level, they could still defeat their opponents with their bare hands.
However, this also indirectly proved that battle beasts were second only to higher life forms. Their battle strength far exceeded that of humans of the same level.
