Chapter 1977
The battle started very quickly, but it didn't end slowly either. During this time, some cultivators who were watching the battle were rushing over. However, the battle was over before they arrived.
As the last saber-light flashed, the Heaven-Defying Cultivator died. The two challengers were killed, and the scene became quiet again.
Outside the crowd, Yi Qian shook her head gently when she saw this scene. Zi Chen had become stronger along the way. Now, except for a few special existences, it seemed that no one was a match for Zi Chen.
Yi Qian had once thought that Zi Chen's battle prowess might be an extravagant hope. However, as she progressed and gained a deeper understanding of Zi Chen's battle prowess, Yi Qian increasingly felt that this was a possibility.
"He has already killed his way to the third continent. He will soon achieve his goal and accomplish this feat." Black Tiger's scarlet eyes flashed with an inexplicable excitement.
The invasion of the Outsiders was the greatest disaster to this world. There was no other.
Previously, Zi Chen had made the foreign races stop fighting. If he really drove all the Heaven-Defying Cultivators out this time, it would really be a great thing.
"Did you see that? Zi Chen is the strongest. Did you see that? Did you see that?"
Seeing Zi Chen easily kill two Heaven-Defying Cultivators, the excited Man Shi immediately ran over to the heavenly realms and shouted excitedly.
Based on the current situation, Zi Chen's strength was unquestionable, and it was also publicly acknowledged. However, Zi Chen's character was not good. He was ungrateful and could be considered a scum. At this moment, when the human Heaven Realm expert heard this, he did not dare to question Man Shi at this moment. Hence, he remained silent and expressionless.
Seeing that no one responded, Man Shi became angry. He was about to go over and greet Zi Chen. Even if the whole world didn't know Zi Chen, Man Shi still treated Zi Chen as a brother. However, he was suddenly pulled back by Wu Xie. The latter transmitted a message to him. "Let's wait and see."
Man Shi was a little reluctant, but he happened to see Zi Chen walking over after collecting Boris's Heavenly Soldier. Fortunately, he also stopped. In his opinion, Zi Chen would definitely come over to greet him.
Under the attention of many cultivators, Zi Chen arrived. Man Shi held his head high and looked at Zi Chen excitedly, imagining the scene of his brother reuniting in his mind. However, just as he was about to greet Zi Chen, he saw Zi Chen walk past him and go straight to the Heaven Crystal that An Qiluo had transformed into.
The excitement on Man Shi's face froze, and he stood there in a daze. Zi Chen had actually chosen to ignore him, and this made him somewhat at a loss.
Wu Xie, who was also ignored, did not show any abnormality on his face. His expression was as calm as ever.
Zi Chen put away the Heaven Crystal and the Heaven-grade Soldier. After that, he coldly glanced at the spectators before turning around and walking forward.
Seeing that Zi Chen was about to leave, Man Shi was a little anxious and immediately followed him.
Zi Chen suddenly flicked his sleeve, and a hurricane appeared out of thin air. Man Shi, who had just taken a step, was immediately swept away by this hurricane. His body immediately flew backward uncontrollably.
In the process of flying backward, Man Shi could not withstand the energy pressure of the hurricane and was injured and coughed up blood.
"A mere pseudo-Heaven dares to tail Zi Chen. He's simply courting death."
"He actually didn't die this time. He's considered lucky."
Man Shi, whose body hit the ground and coughed up blood again, heard the disdainful words coming from all around him.
He fell to the ground and looked at Zi Chen's back with a dull expression. He did not know what had happened.
"Now, don't say anything. Just treat it as a misunderstanding."
Wu Xie came to Man Shi's side. While bending down to support him, he sent a voice transmission to Man Shi.
"What's going on?"
Man Shi was, of course, not a fool. He was just a little impulsive. Today, Zi Chen's disregard did not make him sad. He just felt very strange.
"I don't know either." Wu Xie shook his head.
Man Shi's appearance could not even be considered an interlude. No one would care about two mere pseudo-Heaven Heavens.
After Zi Chen left, the spectators also dispersed. Some of them were excited, while others shook their heads and sighed.
This was because this battle had ended too quickly.
"What's going on? Why, why doesn't he recognize us?"
Man Shi got up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Wu Xie in confusion.
"I don't know either."
Wu Xie shook his head gently and pulled Man Shi away.
When they came to a remote place, Wu Xie released his spiritual sense and scanned the surroundings. After finding nothing unusual, he waved his hand and two weapons appeared in front of him. One was a long sword and the other was a heavy hammer. Both weapons emitted an oppressive aura.
"These are Heaven-grade weapons. Why do you have Heaven-grade weapons?"
Seeing these two Heaven-grade weapons, Man Shi immediately widened his eyes and asked in disbelief.
Wu Xie smiled bitterly and said, "When that energy took you away, everyone's attention was on you. However, I felt these two Heaven-grade weapons come to my side from the void."
"Heaven-grade weapons came to your side from the void? Did Zi Chen give them to you?" Man Shi asked with widened eyes.
"Who else could it be but Zi Chen? How could it be so coincidental that he knows what weapons you and I are good at?"
"But, if Zi Chen gave them to you, why didn't he give them to you face to face?" Man Shi asked in confusion.
Wu Xie shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it should be for our own good. Maybe he pretended not to know us because he didn't want to cause trouble for us. After all, Zi Chen's enemies are too strong. Don't look at how easily Zi Chen killed them. Any one of them can easily kill us."
Zi Chen's current enemies were Heaven-defying Cultivators. In the Zhanwu Continent, there were hundreds of Heaven-defying Cultivators.
Although most Heaven-defying Cultivators were not strong enough in front of Zi Chen, that was only against Zi Chen. Any Heaven-defying Cultivator among them could slaughter ordinary Heaven-realm cultivators in the Zhanwu Continent.
Looking at the silent Man Shi, Wu Xie reminded him, "In the future, don't tell people that you are close to Zi Chen. Don't even think about defending Zi Chen."
"But, is Zi Chen being misunderstood like this?"
Wu Xie smiled bitterly and said, "So what? When we don't have the strength to overturn this world, it seems that we can only accept our fate. Zi Chen is clearly doing this to protect us. Don't let down his good intentions."
After handing the heavy hammer to Man Shi, Wu Xie said, "Right now, we don't have the strength to help Zi Chen. We can only be a burden to Zi Chen. If we want to help Zi Chen, we must break through to the Heaven Realm as soon as possible."
Man Shi nodded solemnly, indicating that he would definitely break through to the Heaven Realm as soon as possible.
Wu Xie could only smile bitterly in his heart. The gap between them and Zi Chen was getting bigger and bigger. Even if they broke through to the Heaven Realm, they might not be able to help Zi Chen. They could only protect themselves.
After taking the Heaven-grade weapons, the two of them headed to the Fourth Continent. This time, the two of them planned to enter the Sword Sect to find Jin Qingcheng and Dong Qing. After that, they would enter closed-door cultivation to break through to the Heaven Realm.
"Looks like these two aren't stupid."
Just as Wu Xie and Man Shi quickly left, the void above their heads broke open, and Black Tiger appeared out of thin air. He looked in the direction the two of them had left, nodded, and disappeared.
…
…
Zi Chen's goal was the First Continent.
"Is your goal really to chase out all the heaven-defying cultivators?"
Yi Qian opened her mouth in shock when she heard Zi Chen's thoughts. She stared at Zi Chen.
Zi Chen nodded and said, "This is not a place they should come to."
As they fought along the way, the number of heaven-defying cultivators that appeared on the battlefield gradually increased. These heaven-defying cultivators were like Zi Chen, they were all heading towards the First Continent.
They knew what Zi Chen was thinking. As for whether they would leave or not, it would depend on whether Zi Chen could really defeat all the heaven-defying cultivators.
Yi Qian, who had not expected Zi Chen to have such thoughts, was very surprised. If Zi Chen could really do this, then he would be the undisputed number one among the heaven-defying cultivators. Even Gao Wei would have to bow his head before him.
Moreover, at this rate, the two of them would face each other sooner or later.
Along the way, Zi Chen took out the fragment of the shield. He tried to refine it along the way, but he did not succeed. Every time, he deliberately did not go to a city, but to a relatively remote place. Zi Chen also tried to sense the other fragments, but he still did not succeed.
"Are the other fragments of the shield in the Zhan Wu Continent?" Zi Chen muttered and put away the fragment.
Looking at the pondering Zi Chen, Yi Qian said, "You can sense the other fragments of the shield with just one fragment. Perhaps you will find clues when you reach the First Continent."
Zi Chen turned around and asked, "The First Continent? Did the shield break there?"
"This is something that happened a long time ago, and there is no way to think about it. However, I once saw another fragment in the First Continent."
"Where is the other fragment?"
"In Gao Wei's hands."
When Zi Chen heard this, he was slightly stunned. He naturally knew who Gao Wei was. He was recognized as the strongest heaven-defying cultivator among the alien races. Even Yi Qian's calm expression could not help but fluctuate when she mentioned him.
This fluctuation was not of excitement or excitement, but of awe and fear. This was the first time Zi Chen felt such emotions from Yi Qian.
If Gao Wei really had another fragment, then it was obvious that the two of them would have to fight soon.
"How strong is this person? How is his temperament?"
Zi Chen asked.
Yi Qian's mind fluctuated again, and after an imperceptible trace of confusion flashed through her eyes, she began to talk about Gao Wei.
What Zi Chen did not know was that while he was asking about Gao Wei, the latter had gathered many of the major forces of the Zhan Wu Continent and was holding a meeting related to Zi Chen.
In this meeting, there were the Five Elements Aristocratic Families from the Second Continent, the Luo family from the Third Continent, the Roc Clan and the Dragon Clan from the First Continent, and other powerful or hidden forces.
Of course, the Everlasting Sect was not one of the forces targeting Zi Chen.
