Chapter 656: Overwhelming Baleful Aura
When Xiao Chen reached the one-eyed man’s saber light, he had already left behind six afterimages. In that instant, the afterimages merged together and sent out a dazzling saber light from the Lunar Shadow Saber, magnifying Xiao Chen’s aura immensely.
When the two sabers clashed, Xiao Chen did not fly back pathetically as the one-eyed man expected. Instead, the one-eyed man was the one sent flying in a sorry state.
A hole immediately appeared in the tight encirclement. Xiao Chen did not get too c.o.c.ky. For this one-eyed man to survive for so long, he had to have some ability.
Xiao Chen gently moved his body and slipped out of the encirclement, landing back on the roof he stood on previously.
When the Feng Clan’s Clan Head in the bright residence below saw this scene, he was flabbergasted. An inner sect disciple could actually move in and out as he pleased before the Seven Black Wind Killers.
Not only did Xiao Chen remain unharmed, but he also managed to kill one of the Seven Black Wind Killers. Such strength was unimaginable.
The Feng Clan’s Clan Head muttered, “Odd, I know the top inner sect disciples of the five big sects, but I’ve never heard of a white-robed bladesman before. When did this person appear?”
“Clan Head, we might be saved this time,” someone at the side said joyfully.
The Feng Clan’s Clan Head shook his head and said, “It is hard to say. The Seven Black Wind Killers are not that easy to deal with. Most likely, the first person died of carelessness.
“This white-robed bladesman is still outnumbered. If he had a few more companions, then it would be good. When the situation turns bad, we will go and help immediately.”
The one-eyed man calmed the surging Quintessence in him. His expression turned cold as he revealed a sinister smile. Then, he led the other five to attack again.
“Kill!”
Six berserk killing Qi merged, seemingly forming a restless sea of blood. As the waves splashed up, vengeful spirits burst out of the water and shrieked loudly.
Xiao Chen felt a slight dizziness. He raised an eyebrow and thought to himself, I wonder, how many people has this group of people killed in order to form such an overwhelming baleful aura?
A regular cultivator would not have sufficient Mental Energy. They might even fall apart before this overwhelming baleful aura. No wonder people said that loose cultivators were hard to deal with.
The vast Mental Energy in Xiao Chen’s sea of consciousness started moving, repelling that uncomfortable feeling.
Xiao Chen held his saber with one hand, maintaining a calm mind. He had a collected expression as he dealt with the six people rus.h.i.+ng at him.
Saber lights and sword images flashed in the pitch-dark night. The surrounding buildings collapsed in the wake of the group’s intense battle.
Aside from the one-eyed man, the Seven Black Wind Killers all found Xiao Chen’s pure Quintessence in his saber light hard to deal with.
Every time the Seven Black Wind Killers exchanged a move with Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen’s saber light would break the Quintessence on their own weapons and turn into a hidden force, flowing into their body via the weapon.
The longer the fight continued, the intenser this feeling became. Two of the Seven Black Wind Killers with weaker physical bodies could not endure it, leaking blood from the corner of their lips.
On the other hand, even though the six people attacked Xiao Chen continuously, Xiao Chen fought steadily. His strong and pure Quintessence neutralized most of the force coming at him.
Then, Xiao Chen used his horrifyingly strong physical body to endure the remaining force, not feeling any pressure from it. Only the attacks of the one-eyed man gave him some trouble.
“Big Brother, this fellow is hard to handle. Did we fall for a trap? This fellow could be a peak existence in the inner sect.”
The Seven Black Wind Killers had not lived as long as they had due to their unrivaled strength. Instead, it was because they judged situations well and acted appropriately.
When the Seven Black Wind Killers ran into true inheritors, sect elders, or famous young experts, they would choose to go and hide somewhere faraway.
At this moment, one of the Seven Black Wind Killers found it hard to endure and thought of retreating. So he projected his voice to the one-eyed man to share his thoughts.
The one-eyed man replied coldly, “If you dare run, I will kill you myself. I recognize the five big experts in the Supreme Sky Sect’s inner sect. This fellow is just pus.h.i.+ng himself. We should kill him. The Spirit Gathering Pearls he has will help us advance to Medial Grade Martial Monarch.”
Left with no choice, the others clenched their teeth and waited for Xiao Chen to burn out.
The calm Xiao Chen continued to block the incoming attacks in an unhurried manner. As he watched the few people injured by the hidden force and leaking blood out of their mouths, he quietly calculated a good time to make his move.
Xiao Chen had swift and decisive reactions; it was just that he did not make a move. When he truly made his move, he would instantly turn the situation around.
“Pu chi!”
After another hundred moves, three of the Seven Black Wind Killers vomited blood at the same time. They had acc.u.mulated a lot of hidden injuries, which erupted out with considerable force.
Xiao Chen’s eyes were as bright as lanterns. As he watched the three, a strange light flashed in his eyes. He smiled coldly to himself, but he did not rush in to make a move.
“Big Brother, this brat did not fall for it. What should we do?”
“It looks like he is not one of those naive younglings. He is experienced and knows what’s going on.”
The three cried bitterly in their hearts. They all projected their voices to the one-eyed man, complaining to him.
The one-eyed man’s left eye had already turned completely red, looking dreadful. His missing right eye was even more horrifying; the wound around the eye gaped.
The scar was ripped open, and scarlet blood flowed out continuously. The one-eyed man’s originally ugly mug now looked like that of a malicious spirit from h.e.l.l.
“I still don’t believe we can’t handle him. Burn your Quintessence. Let’s get rid of him in one breath!” The one-eyed man projected his voice to the other five.
The hearts of the others could not help but thump loudly. Burning their Quintessence meant cutting off their means of retreat. If they still failed to defeat Xiao Chen, their Quintessence would be exhausted; they would not even have the opportunity to run.
“Xiu!”
