Chapter 1667

The golden light swept past, and the Soul-devouring Clan member's body exploded.

There was no rain of blood, nor was there a corpse that exploded. There were only pieces of soul fragments that emitted a lustrous green light.

Zi Chen waved his sleeves and collected the soul fragments.

His cold eyes fell on the second black-robed man.

The other party's disdainful expression was completely frozen. There was obvious shock on his face.

He had killed a member of the Soul-devouring Clan in one move, but he did not understand what was going on.

However, he could clearly sense the pure-blood curse on Zi Chen. This meant that he had killed a member of the Soul-devouring Clan who had awakened a pure-blood bloodline.

Just as he was thinking, he saw the golden figure's gaze fall on him. He immediately had a bad feeling.

At this moment, the other party moved. His whole body was shining with golden light as he rushed toward him at lightning speed.

"Hah."

Facing Zi Chen, who was extremely fast, the Soul-devouring Clan member could not dodge at all. He could only let out a loud cry. His body, which was wrapped in a black robe, began to shine with endless green light.

This was a type of defense, mainly against the soul. Usually, it was only used in battles between members of the same race. Now that he was facing a human, it was extremely rare for him to use this defense before even fighting.

A dazzling golden light appeared in the line of sight of the Soul-devouring Clan member, who was defending with all his might. In an instant, a strong sense of danger struck.

Although he did not believe that a human could kill him, the Soul-devouring Clan member still chose to believe in his intuition.

Not only was he defending, but he was also retreating quickly.

Although these two actions would be mocked by others of the same race, at this moment, the vigilance in his heart did not allow him to hesitate for a moment.

His reaction was fast, and every reaction was accurate and timely. However, he still could not compare to the speed of Zi Chen's attack.

At the same level, Zi Chen was known to be invincible.

The golden light of the blade swept toward the Soul-devouring Clan member, instantly breaking through his defense. The next moment, his body exploded into pure soul fragments.

After collecting the soul fragments, Zi Chen's gaze moved again.

In the previous two attacks, he had killed a Level Seven and an Level Eight. They were all one-hit kills, showing off his super strong combat strength.

As his gaze moved, the other members of the Soul-devouring Clan met Zi Chen's eyes. Their hearts trembled.

Some of them had already started to feel fear in their hearts and were quietly retreating. However, there were still some that were filled with provocation.

However, these people had undoubtedly provided Zi Chen with soul fragments.

Looking at the fiendish existence and feeling the pure-blooded curse on his body, the Soul-devouring Clan finally became timid and began to retreat.

"Buzz."

At this moment, the void trembled as a dense spatial energy spread out.

The Soul-devouring Clan that had retreated earlier stopped again and turned around to look at the city.

The spatial fluctuations were intense. It was obvious that it led to a new world. It was extremely tempting to the Soul-devouring Clan.

If they were in the city right now, they would definitely be able to find the final destination if they carefully sensed this spatial fluctuation.

However, this was obviously impossible. When they met Zi Chen's cold gaze, they recalled everything that had happened. Although they were unwilling, they had no choice but to retreat.

In the blink of an eye, all the members of the Soul-devouring Clan left.

The spatial fluctuations gradually dissipated, and Zi Chen returned with the five fragments.

Walking towards the city, everyone, including the guards, looked at Zi Chen in awe.

Entering the city, all eyes were on Zi Chen. These gazes were filled with awe and admiration.

Among them, there were some who had fought alongside Zi Chen. However, at this moment, they did not even have the courage to go up and greet him.

Zi Chen arrived at Schenker's store. These five soul fragments could greatly increase the size of the space bag.

Walking into the store, Tomb Keeper was already waiting there. Seeing Zi Chen come in, Tomb Keeper smiled gratefully.

"Everything is ready," Zi Chen asked.

"Mm," Tomb Keeper replied.

"Then let's go."

While speaking, Zi Chen looked at Old Man Schenker and said, "Old man, the rest of the trouble is up to you."

Schenker waved his hand impatiently and said, "Alright, let's go."

The two stepped into the teleportation formation and returned to the clan.

When they reappeared, the two were already under the Bell of Heaven and Earth.

"I can fix the coordinates here. If there are any changes, I can also detect them in advance, just in case," Tomb Keeper said.

Zi Chen nodded and did not say anything. He took out the storage pouch and handed it to Tomb Keeper.

"These are the medicinal pills this time. I left a portion for the others. Take these and distribute them."

Tomb Keeper had just taken the storage pouch when the two of them simultaneously felt a powerful energy fluctuation, accompanied by a loud shout, "You're courting death."

It was Man Shi's voice, which was filled with obvious anger.

"What's going on?"

Tomb Keeper's expression changed slightly, while Zi Chen's figure flashed and disappeared on the spot.

In an open area, Man Shi transformed into a steel giant with a violent aura surging around his body.

All around, the people of the clan looked at Man Shi in shock. Dozens of meters away, an ascetic fell to the ground and could not get up.

An ascetic had the strength of Ninth Tier.

Behind Man Shi, the expressions of Shuntian and the others were also very ugly.

"What's going on?" Zi Chen's figure flashed and arrived at the scene.

"It's an ascetic. He said that we're invaders who killed his family. He came to provoke us," Man Shi said coldly.

Zi Chen turned to look at the ascetic. He was a middle-aged man with one hand on his chest. He was lying on the ground and could not get up for a moment. It was obvious that he was in great pain.

"Wang He, it's you." Tomb Keeper was the last to arrive. He recognized the middle-aged man at a glance.

"What's going on?" Tomb Keeper asked.

"Someone said that they killed my father," the Ninth Tier ascetic Wang He said painfully.

"Nonsense."

Tomb Keeper's expression was very ugly. He turned to the warriors and said indifferently, "Everyone saw the departure of the elders. Today, someone dared to provoke us. What's his intention?"

The warriors lowered their heads and did not speak.

"Who said that? Hurry up and come out." Tomb Keeper said coldly, looking very angry.

"Forget it. This will not happen again." Zi Chen waved his hand and turned to walk into the room.

The tyrannical aura around Man Shi dissipated. He followed Zi Chen and left.

"I'll say it again. Who said that? Come out. At this critical moment, we can't tolerate such provocation." Tomb Keeper's voice was still echoing.

Under the authority of the chief, Tomb Keeper soon learned the truth. He could not help but smile bitterly.

He turned to Wang He and said, "Aren't you messing around?"

Wang He scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I just wanted to have a fight with them, so I spoke without thinking. Who knew that there would be such serious consequences? But you can't blame me for this, it's all because of them. They kept saying how strong and powerful these people were, that they could wipe out our entire tribe by themselves. I wasn't convinced, so I wanted to give it a try."

Tomb Keeper said unhappily, "But what happened in the end?"

"I lost in one move. It's my bad luck that I met a guy who could transform. He's too strong."

Hearing Wang He's unrepentant tone, Tomb Keeper almost laughed. "This has nothing to do with luck. Even those three women could defeat you in one move."

"How is that possible?" Wang He's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Alright, I can't be bothered to talk nonsense with you. Come with me to find Zi Chen and explain this matter to me. The matter of the eight elders has nothing to do with Zi Chen and the others. This is your fault."

"Alright, go ahead. I just wanted to fight. Who knew that this would happen?"

Tomb Keeper was so angry that he laughed. "How can you find an excuse to fight with someone who killed your father?"

Tomb Keeper brought Wang He to apologize. It turned out that he was Uncle Wang's son.

After hearing the real reason, even Zi Chen smiled bitterly.

It seemed that this middle-aged man called Wang He was quite smart, but how could he do such a brainless thing?

For a moment, everyone subconsciously looked at Man Shi.

It was not that serious, but Man Shi did not ask any questions. He rushed up without saying anything, which directly led to the escalation of the conflict.

"Why are you all looking at me?"

Man Shi was somewhat dissatisfied. Everyone's gaze clearly showed that he was the same kind of person as Wang He, but he had a brain.

This was a misunderstanding. It would be fine if it was resolved.

After Tomb Keeper distributed the medicinal pills, the injuries of the injured warriors improved significantly.

Three days later, everyone went out to hunt dragons again. This time, there was one more Wang He in the team.

The warriors who followed Wang He were full of confidence when they went out, but when they returned, all of them were not in good spirits.

As for Wanghe, he was completely convinced. What he had said that day when he was guarding the tomb, that even those three women could take him down in one move. This sentence was really true.

The combat strength of the group of twelve was simply unimaginable.

…

…

Because the commotion caused by the spatial fluctuations that day was too great, almost everyone could sense what had happened. Old Man Schenker finally attracted trouble for himself.

The people who came were still from the Imperial Sky Alliance. However, this time, they were not of the Eighth Heaven, but the Ninth Heaven.

"Schenker, you should be very clear about our rules. Hand over the teleportation array and the coordinates, and we'll let this matter go," a Ninth Heaven expert said.

Old Man Schenker was still calculating. He didn't even raise his head as he said, "Our rules? Since when did the Imperial Sky Region have our rules?"

"You don't have to argue with me here. You should know that this is the will of the higher-ups. I think, as a former member of the higher-ups of the Imperial Sky Alliance, you should know very well what I'm talking about."

Schenker raised his head and looked at the Ninth Heaven expert indifferently. He said, "Of course I know what you're talking about. However, I've already left the Imperial Sky Alliance. As for your so-called rules, it's better for others to hear."

The Ninth Heaven expert said coldly, "You're preparing to openly rebel against the Imperial Sky Alliance."

"The current Imperial Sky Alliance is already in a mess. Some damned people actually colluded with the foreign races. What right does a broken place like this have to make people submit and revere them?"

Looking at Jiu Chong's increasingly ugly expression, Schenker said bluntly, "Scram. You don't have the right to talk to me. If you have the ability, get Marquis Xu here. Even if he wasn't the one behind this, I think he's also involved. Is the Alliance humiliating me by sending someone like you, or do they think you have the right to stand here and talk to me?"

Jiu Chong's eyes were filled with killing intent.
