Chapter 1981

The armor exploded. Without his strongest weapon, the remaining destructive energy gushed into Luo Yao's body in a frenzy.

"Crack …"

The sound of bones cracking could be heard all over the place. The energy that had been poured into Luo Yao's body had forcibly shattered many of his bones and organs.

"Puff."

Luo Yao coughed up blood again. There were bits of his organs in his blood.

Luo Yao, who was originally cold, was now looking at Zi Chen with a face full of fear. Without his armor, his strength was relatively weak. But now, he was seriously injured in an instant. His pale face was devoid of blood.

He was full of confidence before he came, but who could be stronger? Zi Chen was so strong that even the most powerful weapon of the Luo family, the armor that was condensed using special techniques and techniques, could not withstand Zi Chen's attack and was forcibly shattered.

This time, Zi Chen did not only destroy the armor, but also the confidence of Luo Yao and the entire Luo family.

"Die."

The Dragon God's Bow appeared in Zi Chen's hand again. With a surge of golden light, the Dragon God's Bow was instantly drawn to a full moon. With a loud and clear dragon roar, he looked at Luo Yao with eyes full of murderous intent.

Zi Chen's murderous intent towards Luo Yao was even stronger than that of the Heaven-Defying Alien Tribe because the latter was his enemy. It was normal for enemies to kill each other.

However, the humans of the Zhanwu Continent were different. In the case of an invasion by an alien tribe, the humans here should unite and kill the alien tribe together. Even if they were not united, it was fine for them to go their separate ways. However, there was a bottom line in this.

In Zi Chen's eyes, this bottom line was that they should not kill each other.

Zi Chen hated internal strife and killing each other, not to mention when there were foreign enemies invading. Naturally, he hated such things even more.

Therefore, Luo Yao must die.

He wanted to make an example out of him.

Feeling Zi Chen's murderous intent, Luo Yao's face was filled with fear. He no longer had the heart to fight and decided to run.

"Buzz."

The bowstring vibrated as the arrow tore through the air and arrived in front of Luo Yao in an instant. The aura of death enveloped Luo Yao.

At this moment of life and death, Luo Yao's eyes flashed with coldness and craziness. He lifted the long spear in his hand like a long rod and smashed it towards the arrow.

"Explode!"

Without his armor and severely injured, Luo Yao knew very well that he couldn't block this attack with his current strength. Therefore, when the two sides collided, Luo Yao shouted decisively.

"Boom!"

The Heaven-Grade spear in Luo Yao's hand exploded with a loud boom, forming a berserk force that engulfed the Dragon God Arrow, blocking its sure-kill momentum.

The moment the arrow stopped, Luo Yao couldn't care less about his weapon. He immediately turned into a streak of light and fled into the distance.

Using a Heaven-grade weapon as the price to block Zi Chen's arrow was a great loss.

With the arrow blocked, Zi Chen saw Luo Yao running away. He narrowed his eyes, which were filled with murderous intent. However, just as he was about to give chase, he saw a bright light suddenly appear on Luo Yao's body. This light was different from his original energy. After it appeared, it completely enveloped Luo Yao's body. Then, Luo Yao's body and the light disappeared in an instant.

Seeing that Luo Yao didn't disappear in an ordinary way, Zi Chen was stunned.

"Swoosh."

Just as Zi Chen was stunned, the void behind him broke open. A Heaven-grade long sword appeared from the void and pierced through the void, aiming at the back of Zi Chen's head.

This scene happened so suddenly that it was beyond everyone's expectations.

The sword that pierced through the air was also extremely fast. When the crowd saw this sword, they didn't even have time to exclaim before the sword-light was already in front of Zi Chen.

However, the sword that was supposed to be aimed at the back of Zi Chen's head was now aimed at his glabella. This was because Zi Chen had sensed danger approaching in an instant. Before the long sword pierced the back of his head, he met the long sword head-on.

After turning around, Zi Chen saw a man in black under the cold light of the sword light.

The other party was wearing a black mask, so his face couldn't be seen. Only a pair of indifferent eyes that were filled with murderous intent could be seen. However, when this pair of eyes met with Zi Chen's, his pupils shrank.

Obviously, Zi Chen's reaction surprised him.

However, piercing the back of the head and glabella was the same. His eyes became cold again, but then there was another change.

He only saw a bright blade light reflected in his eyes. It was Zi Chen who had launched an attack the moment he turned around, slashing his blade towards the black-clothed man.

Although this slash wasn't Zi Chen's full strength, it was still 25% of his strength. Unless the other party had the same armor as Luo Yao, he would definitely be dismembered.

At this moment, facing Zi Chen's slash, the other party only had two choices. The first was to decisively retreat and avoid the attack. The second was to decisively rush forward and pierce Zi Chen's glabella with his weapon. If he was lucky, he would kill Zi Chen first. If he was unlucky, both of them would be seriously injured.

His eyes changed again, and there was a flash of coldness and viciousness. The masked man in black didn't hesitate too much. He had already made up his mind.

Seeing the other party's cold eyes, Zi Chen was very clear about the other party's choice. The corners of his mouth curled into a sarcastic smile, and the slash of the sword light increased in speed again.

Seeing the sudden increase in speed, the man in black's eyes flashed with horror. At this speed, his attack was obviously not faster than Zi Chen's. However, it was obviously too late to regret now.

The sword light flashed past, and Zi Chen cut the masked man in black first.

"Swish." "Swish." "Swish."

However, before the saber light could cut through Zi Chen's body, powerful energy surged out from the left, right, and back of Zi Chen. The void was forcibly torn apart, and three men in black appeared out of thin air.

At the same time, the three sharp sword lights pierced through the void and headed for Zi Chen's head.

At this moment, Zi Chen's long sword had already pierced the first man's body. He could only move forward and not retreat. Now, his whole body was full of openings. In the face of the three sword lights, he couldn't dodge or counterattack. He could only be slaughtered.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that this was a meticulously designed sure-kill situation.

Seeing three more men in black appear, Yi Qian was utterly shocked. There were a total of four men hiding in the dark, but she had failed to notice them. She had only sensed the slightest fluctuation when the other party attacked.

Seeing this sure-kill situation, her mind was completely shaken. She feared that she was not the target. She could not help but feel worried for Zi Chen.

The powerful Zi Chen must not die to such an assassination attempt.

Sensing the three auras and the chilling killing intent, Zi Chen's expression did not change much. His hand, which was holding onto Skyblade, remained steady. His attack did not weaken, nor did he stop for a moment.

The appearance of his helpers was so sudden that the first man in black thought that he had seen a chance at survival. As long as Zi Chen showed the slightest hesitation, the sword in his hand would be able to pierce Zi Chen's glabella first. Then, Zi Chen's head would be completely crushed.

However, he was disappointed and despaired.

Puff.

The sharp blade flashed, and the man in black was cut in two. The powerful sword instantly lost all its power. The sword stopped when it came into contact with the light shield that had just appeared in front of Zi Chen. Then, it fell to the ground.

The life force of the man in black also dissipated in an instant.

This was the difference between a Heaven-defying Cultivator and an ordinary Heaven-realm Cultivator. Heaven-defying energy could easily destroy their life force.

Following the death of the first black-robed man, the attacks of the other three black-robed men had already reached Zi Chen. According to their calculations, Zi Chen would not be able to dodge or counterattack at the moment.

Zi Chen did not move. When the three swords were about to pierce his head, he silently chanted, "Thunderous Blade Manipulation."

When the three swords were about to pierce Zi Chen's head, a cruel smile appeared in the eyes of the three men in black. Then, they saw a vague light appear beside Zi Chen. This light circled around Zi Chen.

Puff. Puff. Puff.

Three soft sounds rang out between heaven and earth. A bloody hole appeared in the heads of the three men in black.

The three attacks stopped beside Zi Chen. The three swords were powerful enough to crush Zi Chen's head. However, they only cut off a few strands of Zi Chen's black hair before they used up all their energy.

The movements of the three men suddenly stopped. As if they had been immobilized, they floated in the air parallel to each other.

This change happened too quickly. Many people didn't see what happened in the middle of it all.

"Boom!"

Behind Zi Chen, another powerful energy came out. Along with this energy, an even brighter and more powerful sword light appeared.

Since it was a sure-kill situation, Zi Chen was very thoughtful. Therefore, the third attack appeared.

At this moment, Zi Chen, who had his hands free, turned around, raised his long saber, and chopped down.

Under the illumination of the bright saber light, Zi Chen saw a pair of cold eyes filled with panic. The owner of the eyes began to retreat. At the same time, the sword light blocked the saber light.

Clang.

The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing resounded through heaven and earth. The man in black who had just rushed forward groaned and broke into the void again.

"Thunder Saber Manipulation."

Looking at the man who was about to escape, Zi Chen's eyes flashed with a cold light as he shouted angrily.

The mini saber spirit that had just appeared turned into a small heavenly saber again. The moment the void closed, it rushed in.

This was a real sure-kill attack. One after another, one after another. It was believed that if Zi Chen had only shown this much strength, he would have died in this encirclement.

The saber spirit chased after the man in black. Zi Chen's mind was still in a tense state because the familiar aura from before had not dissipated.

Hum. Hum. Hum. Hum.

The void trembled and streaks of light appeared. Following that, streaks of sharp sword light appeared from all directions. With the speed of lightning, they carried a sure-kill attack and stabbed towards Zi Chen.
