Chapter 236

Zi Chen stood tall with his spear in hand. His eyes were cold and emotionless. Beside him was a corpse lying on the ground in a miserable state. Blood splattered all over the ground. None of the souls survived under the ancient weapon.

He was like a god of death, decisive and merciless. Everyone retreated with fear in their eyes.

"Cough cough."

But with a light cough, Zi Chen spat out blood. His face turned pale once again, and his endless deterrence disappeared in an instant.

"He can't take it anymore. He's like a lamp that has run out of oil. Again."

The instigating voice once again sounded. However, this time around, before he could finish speaking, his voice came to an abrupt halt. A long spear had already pierced into the other party's mouth, instantly penetrating it.

"Come up yourself if you have the ability. Hiding behind the crowd and instigating is the behavior of a despicable person." Zi Chen said coldly. The long spear in his hand flashed and appeared in his hand.

Fast.

Too fast.

Everyone was shocked. No one noticed when Zi Chen appeared in front of them. His speed was unbelievably fast.

In the crowd, there was one person who was about to leave quietly. But Zi Chen stared at him coldly. In an instant, he felt a chill in his heart, as if he was in an ice cellar.

"You're even more despicable than a despicable person. I'll send you on your way."

The silver light flashed again and another instigator fell to the ground. Blood flowed out from his wound.

"Cough cough."

Zi Chen coughed out blood again, and his face turned even paler.

But no one dared to have any evil thoughts.

Because everyone who had evil thoughts had already fallen into a pool of blood.

Moreover, Zi Chen had been coughing blood since the beginning. But until now, he was still as fierce as ever. He never used a second attack to kill.

"Zi Chen, you can't let these people live. They'll expose your whereabouts."

Everyone was scared out of their wits, and no one dared to have any ideas about Zi Chen. Under Zi Chen's cold gaze, they all retreated one by one, obviously intending to leave. However, at that moment, Ah Mo spoke.

Zi Chen stood with his spear and did not move.

"If you let them go, they will turn around and tell the big powers. When that happens, we will be hunted down again. Only by killing them can we prevent future troubles." Seeing that Zi Chen was indifferent, Ah Mo became anxious.

"I only kill those who deserve to be killed." Zi Chen turned around and flew towards the distant forest.

"Childish, really childish. In the world of cultivators, it's either you die or I die. Everything is for profit. Everything is for profit. Do you understand?" Ah Mo said bitterly.

"I only know that I have to stick to my heart."

Zi Chen said indifferently. Everything was for the sake of profit. He naturally knew this, and he had used his life to experience it. Everything was for profit.

But Zi Chen couldn't do it.

He killed people like flies, but he never killed the innocent. Everyone he killed deserved to die.

He was cold and heartless, but he had a kind heart.

It was laughable that a person who killed people like scything flax was a kind person.

But that's what happened.

"Ferocious, this is too ferocious. He spat out blood while killing people. Under the ancient weapon, no one can survive."

Monk fled all the way and spent a lot of effort to get rid of the pursuers. But before he reached the ice lake, he heard the cultivators discussing.

"Ancient weapon." Monk frowned. It seemed that Zi Chen had an ancient weapon.

"He is indeed ferocious. That is an existence comparable to a monster. Even if he is seriously injured, he still killed several True Energy Realm experts."

"Zi Chen is indeed Zi Chen."

The two of them were discussing, shaking their heads and sighing. They didn't have the guts to gamble with their lives.

"What? What do you mean by Zi Chen? Could it be that Zi Chen is still alive?" Monk suddenly appeared and asked coldly.

He had a bad feeling in his heart.

"You are that evil monk."

A cultivator saw Monk and his expression changed. But he knew that he had said something wrong and quickly shut his mouth.

"Tell me, what is going on with the Zi Chen you were talking about?"

If it was in the past, Monk would have put his palms together and pretended to be righteous. He would have called them almsgivers and asked them about it.

But ever since he met Zi Chen, Monk's life changed. He was always unlucky. Every time he met Zi Chen, he would be at a disadvantage. It was as if he had met his nemesis. At this moment, he stopped pretending. It was meaningless.

"It is Zi Chen. He started a massacre near the ice lake and killed many True Energy Realm experts."

"He is not dead yet."

"No, he is just seriously injured. His combat strength is still there."

The cultivator was terrified. His eyes were filled with fear. He said whatever he knew. This monk was not a good person and was notorious. He didn't dare to lie.

"Ah, Zi Chen, you and I cannot exist under the same sky."

The monk let out a thunderous roar. His roar was deafening. The two cultivators almost fainted from the roar. They quickly covered their ears and fled in panic.

After roaring, Monk chased after Zi Chen. He was anxious and miscalculated again.

Why did he use the word 'again'?

This was because the monk, who always took every possibility into account, had already miscalculated many times in front of Zi Chen.

Monk turned into a golden light and chased after Zi Chen.

Not long after they left, three figures appeared in the distance. They were the three great monsters.

"I knew this monk would not be honest." Li Hao said coldly. Then, he stopped the two cultivators.

Encountering another three monstrous geniuses, the two cultivators were shocked. In just a few hours, the two of them had encountered five monstrous geniuses.

The two of them answered honestly, telling him everything about Zi Chen and the questions that the monk had asked.

"That monk did not lie. The ice lotus must have been taken by Zi Chen." Cang Meng said.

"But if Zi Chen took the ice lotus, why didn't we see him when we went down?" Wu Yuan was confused.

"We did indeed see the monk alone. However, there were many rocks in the surroundings. I believe that a mountain collapsed underground and buried Zi Chen. The monk thought that Zi Chen was dead, so he lured us away."

Li Hao analyzed after a moment of silence.

"That monk is indeed greedy and cunning."

The other two were furious. "If we knew Zi Chen was under the stone, we would have killed him no matter what. Now, we missed the chance."

What happened next was simple. They chased after him.

Zi Chen fled aimlessly. During this period, he kept swallowing pills and his injuries were slowly recovering.

"Zi Chen, I, Li Hao, will kill you." Li Hao stood on the back of the roc king and shouted coldly.

"Zi Chen, I, Cang Meng, will give you ten moves. Come out if you can. I'll kill you with the eleventh move." Cang Meng held a huge saber in his hand and looked like a giant. Every step he took caused the world to tremble.

"Zi Chen, even if you run to the end of the world, I, Wu Yuan, will kill you." Martial Ancestor was not to be outdone.

The appearance of the three forces was very strong.

They chased after Zi Chen all the way. At the same time, Evil Good and Evil Good was also looking for an opportunity to sneak attack.

Zi Chen's incident shocked the world. All the forces and cultivators were paying attention to Zi Chen.

Did he escape alive or was he killed on the spot?

"Latest news. Zi Chen just escaped from Nimbus Martial Ancestor's range and went south. Cang Meng chased after him and slashed."

All the cultivators in the world were paying attention to Zi Chen's incident.

"Zi Chen is injured, but he escaped successfully. Cang Meng lost Zi Chen."

The successful escape caused an uproar.

"Li Hao caught up with Zi Chen and unleashed a sky full of flames, burning an entire mountain. All the beasts and creatures on the mountain died."

"What about Zi Chen?"

"He escaped injured."

"Oh my god, he escaped again. Is he a cockroach that can't be killed?"

News about Zi Chen spread in the major cities.

"Wu Yuan used Destruction Palm. Martial Ancestor used his battle techniques repeatedly. A plain was turned into a canyon."

"Zi Chen escaped again with serious injuries. However, Evil Good and Evil Good caught up with him."

"Damn it, that monk only knows how to sneak attack. He's not a good person."

This was the news a few days ago. All the cultivators rushed to the location of the incident.

The ground collapsed and a huge crack that was hundreds of meters long appeared. Boundless energy was still surging even after a few days. It was obvious that a huge battle had taken place.

"Zi Chen is so fierce. Even though he's seriously injured, he still fought fiercely with the monk and left behind such a miserable battlefield."

By the time everyone arrived, Zi Chen and the monk had already disappeared.

A few days later, there was another news.

The monk was slightly injured.

"How can that be? Evil Good and Evil Good is so strong that even the monsters can't injure him. Zi Chen is already seriously injured. How could he injure the monk?"

On this day, the world was shocked. Everyone was in disbelief. Evil Good and Evil Good's combat strength was not weaker than the three monsters. Some people even guessed that the monk was stronger than the three monsters.

Even though his character wasn't that great, there was nothing to be said about this monk's combat strength.

"Zi Chen used a forbidden weapon."

Another day later, the reason for the monk's injury was announced.

Once a forbidden weapon was used, who could fight against it? It was natural for the monk to be slightly injured.

Zi Chen went all the way south, attracting the attention of everyone. During this period, there were a few more huge battles and Zi Chen escaped successfully.

"The people of Assassins Pavilion attacked with a sure-kill attack. That sword light is like the sun in the sky. It's so bright that people can't open their eyes."

Someone saw this scene from afar and spread the news.

"Is Zi Chen dead or alive?"

"I don't know. I only heard the assassins of Assassins Pavilion roaring."

Zi Chen escaped all the way. However, he was like a cockroach that could not be killed. Every time he met a monster, he would be injured. However, he would recover quickly.

"News, news! The three monsters surrounded Zi Chen at the Broken Mountain Canyon. It's said that the monk is hiding in the dark."

When the news spread, the world sighed.

"It's over. A monster of a generation has fallen."

"It's a pity. Zi Chen's combat strength is unparalleled, but his cultivation realm is too low. Moreover, he's a rogue cultivator. He's definitely at a disadvantage against the monsters of the major factions."

"He's definitely going to die now that he's surrounded by the three factions."

A monstrous genius had fallen in the end, and the major powers had won. The independent cultivators had once again lost the battle with the major powers. This was a result that had long been expected, but it was also very disappointing.

"He still hasn't created a miracle."

"He's just a rogue cultivator. Naturally, he can't go against the major factions."

"He's not heaven-defying after all."

On this day, the world sighed. No one thought that Zi Chen could survive after being surrounded by the three factions.

He had no backing, no power, and no influence. Zi Chen's death was an inevitable and necessary outcome.

He was not like the monk. Although the monk was evil and had a bad reputation, he had a strong backing and no one was willing to provoke him. Even the major factions had to be polite to him.

Unfortunately, Zi Chen was just a rogue cultivator and no one cared about him.
