Chapter 3977

Blood Shadow's expression changed slightly when his sure-kill attack was blocked.

The defense in front of him didn't seem to be strong. He was prepared to break through the defense and kill.

Light shone, and the power contained in the short knife became even more terrifying.

At this moment, the gourd in Zi Chen's arms suddenly flew into the air. The gourd opened on its own, and a misty light sprayed out from it.

Within the light, there was a dazzling flash of light.

Pfff!

Blood Shadow retreated quickly and hid in the blood clouds again.

Zi Chen came back to his senses and caught the falling gourd. The gourd's mouth was already sealed.

There were a few more cracks on it.

Other than fear, he also felt lucky and grateful.

If it wasn't for Di Wu's gift, he would've been beheaded.

You Gui and Fatty's expressions changed as well.

"Continue, but we have to be careful."

Zi Chen didn't expect the Soul-eater Clan to exist in such a harsh environment.

Zi Chen, who had just escaped with his life, constantly warned himself to be careful.

He held the gourd tightly in his left hand and the boning knife in his right.

You Gui led the way for Fatty.

Zi Chen lowered his head and saw the bloodstains on the ground. They were left behind by the Soul-eater Clan.

After hesitating for a while, he signaled Fatty to follow the bloodstains. He glanced at the gourd. Perhaps there was a chance to kill the other party.

Fatty, who was moving forward, was changing his direction. After walking for more than ten feet, Zi Chen changed his mind and continued to move forward.

Because he thought of the sneak attacks from the mutated beasts. They should've been done by the other party. If the other party wanted to avoid him, he just had to find another mutated beast and make it bleed.

While moving forward, Zi Chen's cultivation technique was still circulating. His body seemed to have become a funnel, and the energy of heaven and earth from all directions couldn't be filled up no matter what.

That blood shadow appeared once again, but when it looked at Zi Chen, there was obvious fear in its eyes.

But there was also passion.

A Soul Hunter who wasn't qualified to come here had a body full of treasures. How could it not be moved?

He was determined to get the Xiezhi beast. The little black beast was also extraordinary. There was also the elf that had appeared and disappeared before, and the gourd that could protect its owner by itself.

When he thought of the gourd, he touched his chest. The light from before had directly pierced through his heart, almost taking his life.

If the other party was a general-level soul hunter with such a precious treasure, he might have run away long ago.

However, the other party was a soul hunter who was not qualified to come to this battlefield. He had plenty of ways to kill the other party.

He stealthily concealed himself, then retreated and disappeared.

A moment later, Zi Chen was besieged by a group of beasts and was in danger.

The gourd did not activate on its own.

A smile appeared at the corner of Blood Shadow's mouth.

Di Wu and Butterball left the city wall, this wasn't a place for Human Soul Realm experts to stay.

The other Earth Soul Realm experts were still standing there. Many of them were looking at the canyon.

Unlike before, they couldn't see anything under the storm.

Yao Ye stood there in a daze.

In his mind, he recalled what Zi Chen had said earlier. It was about Shan Ya.

At that time, he didn't hesitate at all and directly rejected her.

Was he afraid of death?

Or did he dislike her?

What was the relationship between Zi Chen and Shan Ya?

Why was she willing to risk her life to save him?

Ripples appeared in his heart.

The Heavenly Soul Realm old man who had stopped Zi Chen earlier stood not far away. He had deliberately deduced once, but he couldn't sense anything.

It seemed that this matter was very strange.

Why was the divine soul goddess trapped in the storm?

Suddenly, a ray of light appeared on the city wall and turned into an old man.

The old man wore a blue robe and smiled as he looked at the canyon.

He had white hair and a youthful face, like an immortal in the mortal world.

The Heavenly Soul Realm experts on the city wall couldn't help but change their expressions when they saw the blue-robed old man.

The blue-robed old man smiled and said, "I'm here to wait for an old friend."

The surrounding Earth Soul Realm experts also noticed this scene, but they didn't know this old man.

"Old friend?"

The Heavenly Soul Realm expert's eyes became sharp. "Could it be that they want to take advantage of the storm to do something?"

The blue-robed old man smiled and said, "No, it's a real old friend this time."

The Heavenly Soul Realm old man was somewhat puzzled.

At the same time, the gatekeeper old man and Spiritual Master Tian Jue were also puzzled.

Zi Chen had already jumped down from the Xiezhi beast's back. The spirit robe on his body was stained with blood. Although it hadn't been torn, its luster had dimmed a lot.

The number of strange beasts that had died under Zi Chen's saber had exceeded ten, but there were still more than ten strange beasts that pounced at him.

There were more than ten bloody marks on the Xiezhi beast's body. It was also fighting a difficult battle.

You Gui had swallowed two strange beasts, but he felt full.

The black shadow in the dark was extremely excited because he found that the other party still had a treasure on him. It was the glowing spirit robe that could withstand many attacks.

But now, the spirit robe seemed to be unable to withstand the attacks, and the light could disappear at any time.

The gourd was held tightly by the other party, but it hadn't been activated, which made him even more satisfied.

Just to be on the safe side, he still didn't take the initiative to attack, but waited, waiting for the other party to be exhausted.

The strange beasts died one after another, but Zi Chen's saber was still very stable. This made the blood shadow very shocked. The other party's endurance was too good.

So, he went to chase some strange beasts over.

Finally, after Zi Chen was exhausted, he took out his scimitar.

He didn't get close, but threw it far away.

Moreover, it wasn't Zi Chen's vital part.

Through the previous battle, he already had a certain understanding of the characteristics of the gourd. As long as it wasn't a fatal attack, the gourd wouldn't activate on its own.

The scimitar took advantage of Zi Chen's unpreparedness and attacked his waist.

The blood shadow stared straight ahead and saw the Soul Hunter's figure stagger, and the scimitar flew back.

Sure enough, it hit.

The light of the spirit robe on the Soul Hunter's body became dimmer.

Retracting the scimitar, the blood shadow changed direction and attacked from the second direction.

It hit again.

Three times in a row, the last bit of light on the stumbling Zi Chen's spirit robe extinguished.

The protective effect disappeared, and it turned into an ordinary token.

The blood shadow sneered. Next, the other party was waiting to be torn apart by the strange beasts.

Suddenly, the violent spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the surroundings gathered crazily towards Zi Chen.

His body seemed to have turned into a huge vortex, and endless energy entered his body.

Just as the blood shadow appeared in shock, a powerful aura erupted from Zi Chen's body.

Zi Chen's entire body shone, and a straight pillar of lightning tore apart the blood clouds, soaring into the sky and disappearing into the sky.

On the city walls of Bloody Battle City, everyone saw a dazzling bolt of lightning pierce through the blood cloud storm, like a sword of light, and disappear into the sky of the canyon.
