Chapter 1608

As the pursuers approached, Zi Chen miraculously discovered that he had recovered forty percent of his strength.

Forty percent of his strength against five foreign races, one of which was a royal. Although he couldn't guarantee a hundred percent victory, there was still a slight chance of victory.

Zi Chen didn't have any obvious injuries on his body, so when the five foreign races arrived and saw the scene before them, their faces were filled with shock.

Zi Chen held the Dragon Piercer in his left hand and the saber in his right as he looked at the five foreign races quietly.

Vera, who was a royal, gradually calmed down. He pointed at Zi Chen and said coldly, "He must be severely injured. Let's kill him together."

The five foreign races looked at each other and didn't say anything else. They attacked Zi Chen together.

A light flashed under Zi Chen's feet, and his body moved a meter away. His calm eyes suddenly shone with a cold light, like a peerless beast baring its fangs. The five of them couldn't help but shudder at the cold murderous aura.

"Pu."

The black saber in Zi Chen's hand chopped off the head of the mid-stage seventh-tier cultivator, sending his head flying.

It was a one-hit kill, and the price for this was that Zi Chen's injuries worsened. He instantly used up ten percent of his energy.

He retreated again and again, and couldn't help but cough up blood.

Four of the five were left. Their eyes widened, and their faces were filled with shock. When they glanced at the long saber, they were filled with fear.

Because that saber was simply too sharp.

The four foreign races attacked carefully, but Zi Chen still found an opportunity to kill three of them.

Of course, Zi Chen also paid a price for this. His body had two wounds that were completely penetrated by sharp weapons. These wounds were fatal in the eyes of others, but Zi Chen still didn't fall.

Vera, who was a royal, looked at Zi Chen again, and his heart was filled with fear.

If it were any other time, he would have turned and fled. But now, the human was obviously severely injured. If he didn't seize the opportunity today, he wouldn't have another chance.

"Let's decide life and death in one move."

Zi Chen roared, gathered his last bit of energy, and rushed towards Vera.

Vera also shouted and rushed towards Zi Chen.

"Pu." "Pu."

The sound of two sharp weapons piercing through flesh rang out at the same time. Then, the two of them looked at each other and fell to the side.

It looked like they were going to perish together.

A light breeze blew past, and the thick smell of blood spread in all directions. Soon, the Dax beasts would smell the blood and come over to eat these corpses.

However, after a full fifteen minutes, Dax's beast still hadn't appeared. Instead, one of the two who had fallen suddenly moved.

Shaking his head that was about to explode, Zi Chen pulled out the Dragon Spike from Vella's body and kicked him away. Vella's weapon was gone, and there were three bloody holes on Zi Chen's body, but they were no longer bleeding.

Zi Chen stood up and looked at the corpse on the ground. He grinned, knowing that he had won.

As expected, although he didn't have any energy left in his body, he still used the Dragon Spike. The price was that the Dragon Spike drained his life force.

After taking two healing pills, Zi Chen began to collect the spoils. After about three minutes, Zi Chen quickly left.

After leaving a kilometer away, Zi Chen dug a big hole and buried himself in it. Of course, before that, Zi Chen had already disguised himself.

Then, Zi Chen fainted.

Due to his severe injuries and the lack of strength in his body, Zi Chen, who had fainted, was hiding his aura as usual.

Another fifteen minutes passed, and there were still no Dax's beasts. Instead, a few beastmen came. When they saw the corpses on the ground, their expressions changed.

The leader of the beastmen was a mid-stage Seventh Tier Orc. He sharply observed the traces of battle and looked into the distance.

"The humans are injured, they can't have run far. Chase them." Then, he signaled for the others to scatter and chase.

The injured humans couldn't have run far, but the blood on the ground had clearly congealed. The battle must have ended a long time ago.

No one cared about the corpses on the ground. After half a day, a few more beastmen arrived.

The leader was a powerhouse who had surpassed the Seventh Tier and was at the late-stage Eighth Tier. Logically speaking, a powerhouse like this shouldn't have appeared on the outskirts of the Dax Plains.

Seeing the corpses on the ground, the other party's face was filled with anger. A suffocating murderous aura spread out, wreaking havoc in the surroundings.

In an instant, the temperature dropped. Sand and pebbles flew everywhere.

The bone-piercing killing intent caused Zi Chen to shiver uncontrollably before he was forcefully awakened.

Then, he felt a monstrous killing intent. It was as if this killing intent had completely locked onto him.

Zi Chen didn't even dare to breathe loudly. At the same time, he felt regret. The Vera's death must have attracted the true powerhouses of the beastmen. If he had known this would happen, he would have run away.

Immediately after, Zi Chen heard a cold voice. "We haven't even attacked the human city, and three royals have already died."

Yes, three royals.

That late-stage Seventh Tier was actually also a royal.

Zi Chen was shocked. Attacking the human city? Could it be that the beastmen were going to launch a large-scale attack?

"Who is it? Come out!" The beastman's angry roar suddenly sounded out.

Zi Chen's expression changed greatly. He couldn't have been discovered, could he?

Under such circumstances, once he was discovered, Zi Chen would definitely die.

The dense killing intent swept over, entering his bones. Zi Chen's body couldn't help but tremble slightly. He was heavily injured and had no energy in his body at all. He was like a mortal. It was already a miracle that he hadn't died.

This killing intent made him feel suffocated, and he wanted to faint. However, Zi Chen wasn't someone who accepted his fate. He gritted his teeth and persevered. Even if he was going to die, he wanted to die clearly.

The atmosphere was extremely strange, oppressive, and tense.

"Oh, you still haven't appeared. Are you waiting for me to personally drag you out?"

Within the cold killing intent, an indifferent voice sounded out. This voice seemed to ring out right next to Zi Chen's ear.

Beside the corpse, a group of beastmen looked around warily.

However, they didn't seem to have discovered anything.

The Eighth Tier beastman was very confident. He smiled coldly and said, "Since you don't want to appear, I'll have to force you out, you coward."

"Bang."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground shook and dust flew everywhere. A person jumped out from the ground.

This person was at the late-stage Seventh Tier. After he appeared, he cursed, "Which little bastard killed someone here? Damn it, he actually made grandpa a scapegoat."

After saying that, he ran away like a wisp of smoke.

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the Eighth Tier beastman. He said, "After him."

He took the lead and chased after him, leaving one of the beastmen to deal with the corpse. The other beastmen also quickly chased after him.

"Damn little bastard, if grandpa finds out, he'll definitely tear you apart."

The cursing continued in the distance, and the sound of something breaking through the air rang out continuously.

Zi Chen's heart, which had been in his throat, slowly calmed down.

That was close. Just now, he had thought that the other party had discovered him. Although he didn't have any energy around him, the beastmen had special methods. Perhaps they really had discovered him.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Zi Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly.

One had to know that in the outside world, he didn't even fear peak Eighth Tier beastmen. In fact, he could even kill them with a single blow. However, here, he had almost lost his life just by encountering a few beastmen of the same level.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the oppressive aura appeared again. Zi Chen's spirit became extremely tense.

Clearly, another beastman had appeared, and Zi Chen guessed that it was the Eighth Tier beastman from before through this aura.

"Boom!"

The energy around the Eighth Tier beastman surged and spread out in all directions like a tide. The place once again became filled with sand and stones, and all kinds of weeds bent and stuck to the ground.

There was no response from this kind of probing. It seemed that there was indeed no one here.

The Eighth Tier beastman snorted coldly and left in a flash.

However, the other party had returned so quickly. Zi Chen was worried about the unlucky guy from before.

Speaking of which, the other party had gone into hiding before Zi Chen. It was probably because he was seriously injured and recovering. He didn't expect to be discovered.

However, Zi Chen was now a little suspicious. Did the Eighth Tier beastman really discover that there was someone here? If not, why didn't he take the initiative to attack?

Not long after the Eighth Tier beastman left, another beastman appeared here.

However, no matter what kind of probing, Zi Chen wouldn't appear. Because right now, he was so seriously injured that he couldn't even recover his energy.

Just like this, Zi Chen healed underground and recovered his energy at the same time.

Time passed day by day. Zi Chen could hear the sound of something breaking through the air every day. Presumably, there were beastmen passing by here every day.

The news he had received earlier was too important. The beastmen were actually attacking a human city. This matter needed to be reported immediately.

Moreover, this was a path that the beastmen had to pass through. If Zi Chen delayed any longer, he was afraid that an army of beastmen would appear. At that time, Zi Chen wouldn't be able to leave even if he wanted to.

Seven days later, Zi Chen's injuries had healed by eighty percent, and his energy had recovered by sixty percent. One night, he quietly crawled out from underground and fled under the cover of night.

The foreign races were going to attack the human cities, and the exotic beasts here had all been chased away. At night, the Dax Plains had a rare silence.

Even though he had been very careful, Zi Chen was still discovered. As such, he continued to fight.

By the time Zi Chen saw the human city in the distance, his injuries had already reached a point where they couldn't be healed anymore.

Looking at the wounded Fiend, everyone's eyes immediately widened. They had personally experienced the other party's savagery. They really couldn't imagine what he had encountered to be injured to such an extent.

Because Zi Chen had gone on a rampage the previous few times, everyone was already frightened. As such, when they saw that Zi Chen was riddled with injuries, they still didn't dare to go forward.

Even if someone mustered up the courage to go forward, they would quietly retreat when the others didn't move.

Zi Chen smoothly walked to within a thousand meters, but he still didn't fall. This made the humans, who were still feeling somewhat regretful, let out a sigh of relief.

It seemed that Zi Chen still had the strength to fight, and with that, he naturally had the strength to kill.

Zi Chen walked step by step towards the city gates. The guards who knew of Zi Chen's strength also looked at Zi Chen in shock.

Zi Chen didn't raise his head, continuing to walk forward step by step.

In actuality, his vision was already blurry. The only thing he was holding on to was his willpower.
