Chapter 939
The five of them hovered in the air, their sharp eyes sweeping over the trial takers below. They didn't restrain their powerful auras. This was the aura of the Mortal Origin Realm, and it was extremely powerful. Everyone's expression changed, and they felt a pressure in their hearts.
Just at that moment, another powerful aura appeared from below. This aura rose into the air, heading straight for the five of them.
This aura came from Sophie. After releasing her aura, she soared into the air, blocking the pressure for the trial takers below.
The trial takers below felt the pressure lessen, but the fear in their eyes didn't lessen.
"Who are you? Don't you know where this place is?" Sophie coldly asked the five of them.
The leader was a man in a golden robe. His expression was cold, and his cold eyes fell on Sophie. He sensed the aura around her, and a subtle surprise flashed in his eyes. The other four had the same expression, but their clothes were different. When the five of them stood together, their clothes looked like the five elements.
It wasn't that Sophie couldn't guess, but she didn't dare to think about it. The grand five elements faction, a true power of the Ancient Road, an existence that could control the laws, had actually come here. And from their expressions, they clearly didn't come with good intentions.
The golden-robed man coldly snorted, and a golden token appeared in his hand. There was an ancient character in the middle of the token. It was the character 'Jin'.
"Five elements Jin family." Sophie let out a low cry. The identities of the other four were clearly on the verge of being revealed.
"Hmph, at least you know your place."
The golden-robed man arrogantly snorted. His gaze swept past Sophie, then swept over the trial takers below. He coldly said, "I want you to recognize a person. If you can recognize him, tell me where he is, and you'll be rewarded with a thousand drops of high grade yuan liquid."
Such a generous reward caused everyone's expressions to change. Greed appeared on their faces.
A thousand drops of high grade yuan liquid was an extremely large number. No one present wouldn't be tempted.
Thousands of people made their preparations. Sophie's face was also filled with curiosity. She was curious as to who the five elements faction was looking for. They were actually giving out such a generous reward.
The golden-robed man's hand shook, and a ray of light appeared in the air, condensing into a figure.
It was a young man. He could be considered handsome, and his eyes were extremely calm. However, there were too many people like him in the Martial Heaven Continent. At a glance, there was nothing special about him.
Everyone racked their brains but could not think of where they had seen it before.
"Zi Chen, he's Zi Chen." Suddenly, a voice rang out.
The golden-robed man's expression changed as he looked in the direction of the commotion. When he saw that it was Sophie, his eyes immediately lit up as he asked, "Oh, you know him?"
Sophie smiled and said, "Of course I know. He's the only one on the Ancient Road who dares to make a move against us guardians. He possesses two types of Origin Power, and his battle prowess isn't weak."
The golden-robed man's cold expression gradually softened. He said, "Yes, it's him. Since you know, then it's easy. Tell me where he came from and which passage he came from."
"I can only tell you his name, but I can't tell you where he's from. It's against the rules," Sophie refused.
"Rules? You know what rules are. On the Ancient Road, we are the rules," the golden-robed man said arrogantly.
Sophie smiled and said, "I'm sorry, but even you can't change this rule."
The golden-robed man's expression immediately became gloomy. He coldly said, "You should know that this Zi Chen didn't just offend the Jin Family, but the entire Five Elements Aristocratic Families. Other than the Five Elements Aristocratic Families, there's also the Sword Sect, the Sha Zhi Clan, and the Ba Dao Clan. You should think carefully."
With every sentence the golden-robed man said, Sophie's expression would become more unnatural. Her heart would fiercely tremble. The forces that the golden-robed man mentioned were all great forces. Furthermore, they were the great forces of the entire Tianwu Continent. She didn't know what Zi Chen did in the depths of the Ancient Road to actually offend so many forces.
However, the golden-robed man's words didn't scare Sophie. She almost didn't hesitate and directly said, "The rules are the rules. I'm just following the rules."
"You're really not going to say?"
The golden-robed man's face was immediately covered with frost. The expressions of the four people beside him were the same. The aura that had just calmed down around the five of them once again became tyrannical.
"Everyone, this is the Starting Ground. This place has its own rules. Even the Five Elements Aristocratic Families can't change them."
An old voice resounded. The Ancient Road Watcher appeared. He wore hemp clothes and walked over step by step. His originally slightly bent waist became abnormally tall and straight.
The tavern owner also limped over and said, "I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place to look for the person you're looking for."
The golden-robed man's expression became ashen. He coldly asked, "You're really not going to say? Have you thought of the consequences?"
Just as the two groups of Mortal Origin Realm experts were coldly conversing in the air, a woman in the crowd below transmitted her voice.
"It's Zi Chen. They're actually looking for Zi Chen. According to what they said, Zi Chen should have offended many great forces. They're here to cause trouble."
Beside the woman stood a black-robed man. His expression was cold, and his body emitted an aura that pushed people a thousand miles away. He transmitted his voice, "Don't worry. As long as we don't say anything, no one will know where Zi Chen came from."
"Of course we won't say anything, but we can't guarantee that those monsters won't say anything either." The woman transmitted her voice worriedly.
"It's been dozens of years. The Ancient Road Passage has been opened several times, and Zi Chen's deeds are slowly fading away. They might not remember Zi Chen," the black-robed man said.
In the air, the two sides were facing each other. The five people from the Five Elements Force were extremely ashen, but they couldn't do anything to the three people opposite them. The Starting Ground was under the control of the Ancient Race. The Ancient Race had never appeared, so the Body Cultivator Branch was in charge. The Body Cultivator Branch was an extension of the Ancient Race.
"Zi Chen. I think I've heard of this name before."
Suddenly, a voice came from below.
The people in the air followed the voice and saw a man with a beast head, a human body, and a long tail. He was a mid-stage Core Realm monster.
As soon as he spoke, the people around him looked at him with envy and jealousy.
"Oh, you know him." The golden-robed man looked down at the monster.
"I'm not sure if the Zi Chen I know is the one you're looking for. However, the Zi Chen I know is extremely powerful. He's a Sky Martial Artist and has mastered Ultimate Yuan Force," the monster said.
There might be many people named Zi Chen in the world, but the Sky Martial Artist Zi Chen was very rare.
"It's the monster. He knows." The woman's expression changed.
The man said, "Don't worry."
As he spoke, the space beside the man trembled slightly.
"Oh, then tell me. Where is the Zi Chen you know?"
The golden-robed man asked kindly, but his heart was filled with killing intent. Now that he knew the name Zi Chen, he couldn't let him go even if he killed the wrong person.
"He's here."
As soon as the Demon Clan member said those two words, the space beside him split open, and an extremely powerful killing intent surged out. Just as the killing intent surged, a sharp sword light had already pierced through the Demon Clan member's Sea of Consciousness.
"You're courting death."
A shout came from the sky. Then, a golden light shot toward the owner of the sword light.
Puff.
A moment ago, the sword light killed the monster. In the next moment, the golden light killed the owner of the sword light. However, this was only a clone. The golden light destroyed it in one hit. Only a black blade fell to the ground with a clang.
Such a sudden change caused everyone's expression to change. They subconsciously retreated more than ten steps.
"Who is it?" The five people's faces were distorted. Their eyes were filled with killing intent as they looked down coldly.
However, the people below looked a little panicked and shocked. They also looked innocent. They didn't look like the murderer at all. The golden-robed man looked at the three people again. However, he quickly eliminated them.
If the three of them wanted to kill someone, they would've done it silently.
Their only clue was gone. Furthermore, the Zi Chen that the other party knew was most likely the Zi Chen they were looking for. The golden-robed man scanned the surroundings of the dead demons. Indeed, he found another demon. His face was extremely pale and there was fear on his face.
He looked down at the monster and asked coldly, "Speak. Do you all know?"
This time, there were a total of six monsters. There were no dragonians. The remaining five had fear on their faces. They didn't know what to say.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure you don't die. Speak. If you don't, you'll die," the golden-robed man said coldly.
One of them moved his mouth. He wanted to speak, but before he could say a word, the void beside him broke open again.
"You're courting death."
This time, the golden-robed man sensed it the moment the void was torn open. He extended his hand and pointed a finger. As the finger fell, the avatar dissipated. However, that was not the end of it. A sharp sword light appeared from the opposite direction and directly destroyed the demon.
After the clone killed the enemy, it was killed by the golden-robed man. The other four monsters were extremely frightened.
At this moment, one of the monsters beside the golden-robed man pointed at the black-robed man below and said, "It's him. It's this brat. How dare he play tricks in front of us. He's courting death."
"Die." The golden-robed man had a fiery temper. He pointed with his finger and was about to kill the black-robed man.
As the golden light fell, the black-robed man's body suddenly twisted. Before the golden light could reach him, his body flashed and disappeared into thin air.
"You want to leave? Stop right there." A loud shout was heard. The second Mortal Origin Realm cultivator attacked somewhere in the void.
The void broke open again. The black-robed man's body flashed and disappeared again.
Since this side had already attacked, the others panicked and hid in all directions. Suo Fei and the others looked at each other and nodded. It was obvious that they wanted to stop this.
Suddenly, another voice came from below, "I'm a monster from the Wasteland. Zi Chen is …"
The demon thought that the black-clothed man was surrounded and had nothing to worry about. Greed surfaced in his heart once again. However, before he could finish his sentence, an attack emitting an illusory light flew towards him. This attack was extremely sharp. It chopped off the demon's head in one hit and obliterated his soul.
Dark red blood sprayed on the monster beside him, causing his face to turn even paler.
"Swish." "Swish." "Swish."
