Chapter 191

In the pitch-black night, one couldn't even see their own fingers.

In this strange space, Xing Chen and the moon couldn't be seen. This proved Wu Xiong's guess. This was an independent space, but it was comparable to a real world.

Zi Chen sat cross-legged, circulating his cultivation technique. He was refining the thousand-year-old elixir that he had obtained during the day. The rich and pure spirit energy turned into a warm current, flowing to his limbs and bones. It constantly changed his physique, and then entered Abdomen.

The surroundings were silent. It seemed that even the birds and beasts were silent.

Miao Kong and Su Mengyao sat cross-legged, silently cultivating. The spirit energy here was extremely rich. It showed signs of turning into mist. It was like a small white dragon. It could be said that it was a cultivation treasure.

Their strength hadn't reached the peak level yet. At this moment, they were rushing to cultivate.

At this moment, a pitch-black figure appeared. It was like a ghost. It walked silently and fluttered towards them.

The other party was silent. It was careful and cautious. It was like a shadow. It walked silently, and the wind didn't leave any trace. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to see it.

The pitch-black night didn't block the black figure's vision. The other party's figure was strange. It walked silently, but its target was very clear. It was Miao Kong. The distance between the two parties was getting closer and closer.

During this period, the three of them were cultivating. They didn't notice anything unusual.

"Swoosh."

The distance between the two parties was getting closer and closer. When it was within the attack range, an extremely rich killing intent suddenly emerged. A cold light flashed in the pitch-black night. A sharp sword was unsheathed. With a clear sword sound, the man and sword became one. The black figure rushed towards Miao Kong's throat.

At this moment, Miao Kong was cultivating. He didn't notice this scene at all.

Moreover, the other party's attack was swift and strange. When the sword sound appeared, the man and sword had already become one. They arrived in front of Miao Kong's face.

At this moment, Miao Kong was sitting cross-legged in cultivation. It seemed that he had fallen into a deep level of comprehension. He didn't notice anything unusual. He didn't even feel the cold sword point at his face.

"Swoosh."

Miao Kong was about to lose his life under the assassination. Suddenly, a bright golden light appeared in the pitch-black night. It was sharp and terrifying. It was like a huge sword blade. It rushed towards the black figure at an extremely fast speed.

"Puff."

As the sword sliced through the air, a light sound rang out. It was filled with boundless killing intent. In a flash, the golden sword disappeared. At the same time, the black shadow's aura also disappeared.

In the pitch black night, Miao Kong had suffered an assassination attempt. Logically speaking, his expression should have changed greatly and he should immediately jump up. However, he still closed his eyes and continued to cultivate, remaining calm and composed. On the other side, Su Mengyao was the same.

Zi Chen didn't move either. He didn't even open his eyes.

With his powerful spiritual sense, Zi Chen was able to detect unusual movements in the dark and make preparations in advance. This was only an assassination at night, but it was not the first assassination attempt.

The night passed by quickly. The next day, when the sky was bright, the three of them opened their eyes.

Cultivating at night and searching for spiritual herbs during the day had almost become a habit.

Opening his eyes, Miao Kong saw the three corpses beside him. However, he was already used to such a sight. Instead, he skimmed through their stiff bodies in an extremely proficient manner, and turned to look for some useful things.

This was an extremely ordinary day. With Zi Chen around, the two of them could cultivate in peace.

As for Zi Chen, he also discovered that ever since he had comprehended extreme Yang, his perception had become much sharper.

"It's time to go."

Zi Chen stood up and led the two of them out once more.

"Zi Chen, it's been longer and longer. How much longer until you break through?" Miao Kong asked.

"Soon. It should be in the next two days. I just need some spiritual herbs to make another breakthrough," Zi Chen said. During this time, he had tried to break through to the late Xiantian realm several times. However, most of the energy had been absorbed by his body.

When his strength increased, Zi Chen's perfect body had to make a breakthrough first. This required an even more vast amount of energy. Zi Chen had no way to do that.

"The spell in the depths will be broken soon. We don't have much time," Miao Kong said.

"I know." Zi Chen nodded.

More than five kilometers away, Zi Chen discovered another demonic beast.

"Wait for me."

Where there were monsters, there would naturally be spiritual herbs. This had almost become an unwritten rule. Zi Chen gestured for the two of them to wait. His entire body turned into a beam of golden light as he rushed forward.

A moment later, the roars of beasts rang out in the forest. Then, a golden figure turned back.

"Let's go."

Zi Chen put away the thousand-year-old spiritual herb and led the two of them to the next place.

Retorting like this, they slowly went deeper into the forest.

"Boom!"

Another monster beast fell to the ground. Zi Chen had snatched away the spiritual herb it was guarding. However, he did not kill it.

In this space, Zi Chen had killed enough. Now, unless he had no other choice, he would not even kill the demonic beasts.

"Today, I'll break through to the late Xiantian realm."

Zi Chen found a place with extremely rich spiritual herbs. There was a 7055-year-old spiritual herb here that had been snatched away by Zi Chen. The monster beast had also been driven away by Zi Chen. At this moment, this place had become Zi Chen's territory.

"Okay, the two of us will guard you."

In front of Zi Chen, there were three 7555-year-old spiritual herbs. One of them was more than 7055 years old. It was used to break through to the late stage. Now, Zi Chen had reached the peak of the middle stage. He was only a small step away from the late stage. However, this small step required a huge amount of energy to break through.

The energy contained in these three spiritual herbs was almost unimaginable. However, Zi Chen swallowed them in one gulp. He was not afraid of exploding.

"Buzz."

The rich spiritual energy was like a raging dragon that had lost control, constantly attacking Zi Chen's body. However, at this moment, Zi Chen's meridians were emitting a golden light. It was like an iron wall, blocking the impact of this energy. Under the operation of the cultivation technique, this pure energy flowed through his meridians and into Abdomen.

Time passed. Zi Chen was motionless. His body was surrounded by a golden light, like a golden armored war god. Beside him, Miao Kong and Su Mengyao were guarding.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

A rumbling sound came from Zi Chen's body. The golden light soared into the sky like a raging wave, carrying a terrifying energy aura.

Two hours passed. The golden light around Zi Chen's body was even more dazzling. The surging energy was also more powerful. The entire forest was dyed golden. An oppressive aura pervaded the surroundings.

Some small forest beasts could not bear this aura and fled in panic.

"Boom!"

Six hours later, Zi Chen's body erupted with a surging aura. Boundless golden light wreaked havoc in all directions, dazzling and dazzling. At the same time, a terrifying aura belonging to a late Xiantian master filled the forest.

"Peng." "Peng." "Peng."

Wherever the golden light passed, it carried with it a terrifying pressure. Some trees that came into contact with the golden light instantly exploded. The ground was also shaved off by the golden light by more than a meter. At the same time, a terrifying aura surged through the entire forest.

The Perfect Body had been cultivated to the late stage of Xiantian. It carried a terrifying aura. Zi Chen opened his eyes. His eyes flickered with a bright light. He felt that his body was filled with strength. At this moment, Zi Chen felt that killing a Perfection stage monster beast with a single strike wasn't a problem at all.

"I've finally broken through."

Miao Kong had already retreated far away. Just now, Zi Chen's breakthrough had caused a huge commotion. He and Su Mengyao had no choice but to retreat.

"We can enter the depths now."

Miao Kong had always been brooding over the inheritance in the depths. All the powerhouses he had brought with him had been killed. If it weren't for Zi Chen, it would have been impossible for him to kill his way into the depths. All his hopes were placed on Zi Chen.

"Not bad. We can go in now."

The illusory golden light in Zi Chen's eyes slowly dissipated. However, a terrifying aura surged. His strength had once again broken through. Zi Chen could be said to be fully deserving of the title of number one Xiantian expert.

What genius? What major power? As long as they were in the Xiantian realm, he didn't fear them. Even if they were monstrous geniuses of the same level, Zi Chen would still dare to fight them.

After breaking through, the three of them began to go deeper.

As expected, there were very few cultivators they could see along the way. Even Liu Bo was nowhere to be seen. It was likely that he had gone into the depths to take advantage of the situation.

Two days later, Zi Chen's group was stopped.

There were dozens of people, each of them riding a Black Scale Horse. They were mighty and extraordinary. Standing in front of them, they were like an iron wall without any weaknesses.

"Haha, Chen Long."

A hearty laugh rang out. Behind the Black Scale Horse, an even taller one appeared. On the Black Scale Horse, a handsome youth laughed heartily.

"Wang Shan."

Seeing Wang Shan appear, Zi Chen was very surprised. Along the way, he had encountered many assassins. Presumably, they had all been sent by Wu Xiong. But now, Wang Shan hadn't gone into the depths. Instead, he had come here. This really surprised Zi Chen.

"I'm afraid you're the only one in this trial ground who can kill Chen Feng and Ling Yun. Now that I've seen it, it's true." Wang Shan rode forward and glanced at Su Mengyao. A strange light flashed in his eyes.

At this time, Su Mengyao was even more beautiful. Her white robes fluttered in the wind. Her peerless face was flawless, as if it was carved from jade. Wang Shan's heart was moved.

"Be careful, these riders are not ordinary. They should be Yunxia City's Black Steel Cavalry. They have been cultivating with the Black Scale Horses since childhood. They are good at joint attacks. They are very famous in the seven cities." Miao Kong whispered in Zi Chen's ear.

"Black Steel Cavalry."

Zi Chen looked ahead. These dozens of riders gave him the feeling of a giant beast lying on the ground. Although they hadn't launched an attack yet, they were always on guard. Once they attacked, it would be a thunderous attack.

"I have something to say."

Zi Chen said indifferently. His strength had broken through again. His blood and Qi were like the sea, surging violently. Even if they were Black Steel Cavalry, Zi Chen had the confidence to fight.

"I want to ask brother Chen Long, why do you have designs on my woman?"

Wang Shan was smiling, but his eyes were surging with coldness. This was Wang Shan, the fourth genius of Yunxia City. Although he was self-proclaimed, he was still arrogant.

Even in the face of a monster, he dared to sternly question him.

"Your woman? Wang Shan, is your brain damaged?" Zi Chen's voice was cold. This Wang Shan had guts, daring to speak like this.

If it was someone else, Zi Chen would be a little afraid. But facing Wang Shan, this guy couldn't even defeat him when he was in the early Xiantian realm. Although he had reached the peak Xiantian realm, Zi Chen was also in the late Xiantian realm. Dealing with him could be said to be a piece of cake.

"Audacious brat, you talk big. Is my master's name something you can call?"
