Chapter 2081

Looking at Zi Chen's powerful attack, Xing Chen's indifferent expression showed a touch of excitement.

According to Zi Chen's powerful battle strength, it seemed that it would not be difficult for him to kill this Half-Saint.

However, after the powerful collision, Zi Chen's attack was obviously much weaker.

The previous attack was so, and so was this seemingly gentle palm.

"How could this be?" Standing in the distance, Xing Chen was puzzled.

Around Xing Chen, the other Star Spirits looked up at the battle in the sky. They had no intention of helping. When they glanced at the Half-Saint from time to time, they showed instinctive awe.

"Bang."

Zi Chen pushed out his palm. The Half-Saint Star Spirit's expression became more contemptuous. The giant sword in his hand slashed horizontally again. The sword light flashed, as if he was going to cut Zi Chen in half.

Zi Chen stepped aside, and the sword light brushed past his body.

The moment the sword light brushed past his body, Zi Chen leaned forward and hit the Half-Saint Star Spirit with his palm again.

This palm was so light that Xing Chen thought it could only make the Half-Saint lose his balance and take two steps back. It could not hurt him at all.

The fact was as he thought. After Zi Chen's palm hit the Half-Saint Star Spirit, he lost his balance and took two steps back.

"What's the use of such an attack?" Xing Chen was shocked by Zi Chen, but now it was replaced by doubt.

However, in the next moment, the doubt on his face was replaced by astonishment.

The moment the Half-Saint Star Spirit lost his balance and took two steps back, Zi Chen's body shone with a dazzling golden light. He arrived in front of the Half-Saint Star Spirit in an instant and then hit him with a punch.

After the punch, Zi Chen seemed to have predicted the direction of the Half-Saint Star Spirit's loss of balance. He took a step forward and punched again. Then his body flashed again, and a golden finger print hit the Half-Saint Star Spirit.

In Xing Chen's eyes, Zi Chen had completely turned into a golden light. He surrounded the Semi-Holy Star Spirit and continuously attacked.

These attacks might not be powerful, but they were perfectly linked together, making the Semi-Holy Star Spirit unable to regain his center of gravity from the beginning. His body involuntarily swayed left and right with Zi Chen's attacks, constantly changing his direction.

"Bang." "Bang." "Bang."

Fists, palms, fingers, elbows, knees … Similar attacks were launched unceasingly, falling on the Half-Saint Star Spirit. Energy reverberated unceasingly.

"Ah."

The Half-saint Star Spirit looked up to the sky and roared. The Half-saint aura around him surged and spread out like waves. This power was very strong, but it had no effect on Zi Chen in the slightest.

This was because Zi Chen's physical body was even stronger. It was comparable to a Heaven-defying Heavenly Soldier. How could a Half-saint with only soul power suppress him?

The astonishment on his face turned into shock again. An ancient memory appeared in his sea of consciousness. Xing Chen looked at Zi Chen, who was shining with golden light, and said involuntarily, "This … this is the ancient race's close combat technique."

The Star Tribe was very clear about the ancient race's combat techniques. This was because the Star Tribe was one of the Four Great Kings of the ancient race.

In his sea of consciousness, some introductions about the close combat techniques appeared. One of them was that once one's body was stuck to, there was no other way to break free except by being several times stronger than the opponent.

This was a combo attack technique. From the beginning, it was to destroy the enemy. There were only two possibilities.

One was that the energy was exhausted.

The other was that the enemy was dead or defeated.

"I didn't expect him to know this kind of combo attack technique. In order to launch this kind of combo attack, he must have a strong physical body. Previously, I guessed that Zi Chen only had the perfect spiritual thoughts. This doesn't seem to be accurate. Since he can use this kind of combo attack technique against a Half-saint, perhaps his physical body is also called the ancient race's perfect body."

The shocked Xing Chen finally understood Zi Chen's intention after seeing Zi Chen's close combat combo attack technique.

This kind of close combat was very suitable for him to be surrounded by attacks from the Peak Heavenly Realm. This was because the Half-saint would be attacked by the other Heavenly Realm experts.

"Ah …"

The Half-saint Star Spirit was still roaring, but it was useless. Although his cultivation level was higher, his combat strength was still a little weaker than Zi Chen's.

As the attacks fell, the Heaven-defying energy that entered the Star Spirit's body with the attacks also erupted. The Star Spirit's body emitted a dazzling golden light.

This golden light pierced the Star Spirit's body from the inside out. It was like a sharp sword that pierced the Star Spirit's body and armor.

The Half-saint Star Spirit's unwilling roar resounded throughout the world. The armor that was torn apart by the golden light dissipated and turned into specks of starlight. At the same time, the Star Spirit's body also disappeared.

However, the Star Spirit's roar suddenly stopped when his body dissipated. There seemed to be a touch of human emotion in his angry and ruthless eyes. He turned his head to look at Zi Chen. His expression changed and there seemed to be a touch of gratitude in his eyes.

Then, the Star Spirit turned his head again and saw Xing Chen. His face revealed a look of realization and relief. He smiled at Xing Chen and his body dissipated in an instant.

Just as the Star Spirit disappeared, a light spot of Xing Chen appeared in the Star Spirit's sea of consciousness. It turned into a ray of light and flew towards Xing Chen.

"Let them go."

At the same time, a cold voice resounded in the sky when the Half-saint Star Spirit disappeared. There was a tone of command in this voice that could not be disobeyed. As soon as the words came out, the rest of the Star Spirits immediately showed fear on their faces and retreated.

"I hope you can succeed."

Another low murmur sounded. The Half-saint Star Spirit completely dissipated in the Star Rain.

"Let's go."

In Zi Chen's sea of consciousness, Xing Chen's voice sounded. He was not an indecisive person. He did not think about what was going on. He immediately turned into a ray of golden light and flew out of the city.

The Star Spirits were still in a state of awe. When they saw Zi Chen fly past them, they all showed awe and hesitation on their faces. They seemed to be struggling.

Obviously, the order just now was not enough to completely suppress them. Under the cover of the formation, the instinct to kill made them struggle.

"Roar."

After a while, a low roar resounded. A Heaven Realm creature raised the weapon in his hand and rushed towards Zi Chen.

If there was one, there would be a second soon. The instinct to kill had completely taken over their hearts.

After that, more Star Spirits rushed out and chased after Zi Chen …

All the Star Spirits in the city moved and continued to besiege Zi Chen.

Fortunately, while the Star Spirits were struggling, Zi Chen had already flown far away. At the moment, he was less than one-third of the way to the city gate.

"Boom."

The golden light around his body was violent. For the last part of the journey, Zi Chen drove with all his strength. He flew out of the city in a straight line like a cannonball.

Behind Zi Chen, Xing Chen chased after him desperately. Behind Xing Chen, the Star Spirits that Zi Chen had crashed into turned into Xing Chen's Crystals and followed behind Xing Chen.

"Swoosh."

In this way, when there was still some time before dawn, Zi Chen successfully passed through the city.

After passing through the city, he didn't stop but continued to rush forward.

After about ten thousand miles, he stopped and looked up at the sky. The night was about to pass.

After a while, Xing Chen caught up with him, panting.

After the battle in the city, Xing Chen now admired Zi Chen more and more.

The sky was bright. The Star Spirits outside the city dissipated with the disappearance of the Star Rain. Another day had come.

Xing Chen sat cross-legged on a big rock and began to merge the starlight left by the Half-Saint. For some reason, Zi Chen felt that the starlight was familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

It would take a long time to merge the starlight left by the Half-Saint. Zi Chen stayed where he was and protected Xing Chen.

The peak Heaven Realm creatures in the city didn't continue to chase after Zi Chen after he left the city. However, there were still Star Spirits of other levels outside, but they couldn't do anything to Zi Chen.

Soon, ten days passed. Xing Chen finally merged with the starlight and opened his eyes.

His eyes were full of joy and excitement. With the merged starlight, even if Zi Chen broke the formation, he wouldn't die.

And he might even be able to get out of here and avenge the Star Tribe.

He looked at Zi Chen with gratitude in his eyes.

"How far are we from the core of the formation?"

Zi Chen sat on a big rock and looked ahead. This place was very strange. Nothing could be seen during the day, like an illusion. Only at night could one see.

"At full speed, we should be able to go deep in half a month," Xing Chen said in a low voice.

"How many Half-Saints are there?"

Hearing Zi Chen's words, Xing Chen was lost in thought. After a while, he said with uncertainty, "I don't know the details, but from the formation, there should be nine."

"Nine Half-Saints?"

Zi Chen's eyes flashed with cold light. The way out was right in front of him. Not to mention nine Half-Saints, even if there were nineteen or ninety Zi Chen, he would still have to fight.

"Those nine Half-Saints are all suppressed by Saint Crystals. Their battle strength should be stronger than the one in the city."

"It doesn't matter. Let's go deep tonight."

When night came, the two started to move forward at full speed. Along the way, Xing Chen collected a lot of Xing Chen's Crystals.

Soon, half a month passed. The two came to the core of the formation in the depths of this world.

"That's the core of the formation. Just go there and destroy the formation."

Ten thousand feet away, Xing Chen pointed to the shining altar and said.

Looking at the altar, Zi Chen could still feel the powerful aura surging from it even though they were ten thousand feet apart.

This aura came from the altar itself, and from the nine statues below the altar.

"They used to be Saints of the Star Tribe. After their vitality was extinguished, they were turned into statues by the Shen Tribe and became part of the formation. The Saint Crystals in their bodies were dug out to protect this formation."

Looking at the nine statues, Xing Chen revealed a sorrowful expression.

"Nine Saints." When Zi Chen heard this, he was clearly shocked.
