Chapter107 An Out-of-the-body Experience (1/2)

”Let's go.” Xiao Chen thought no more. With his present cultivation, he could not fight 15 early-staged Foundation Building Realm Cultivators. He pulled Luo Shangyan up and dashed away. If they could survive until dusk, these assassins would then be unable to release their Divine Sense. Then, it would be far easier for them to escape.

After running for nearly an hour, the sky finally darkened. A mountain chain appeared. Yet several men were still after them. Clenching his teeth, Xiao Chen dragged Luo Shangyan and dashed into the mountain forest. If he had executed the Immortal-override Steps, he would have shaken them off. But now he needed to evade the flying swords and had to take care of Luo Shangyan. They could only run at the same speed as the assassins.

Luckily, the sky had dimmed and there was a large mountain ahead. When night had completely fallen, they could escape. A strong wind assaulted him from behind. Xiao Chen condensed his Qi into a blade and cleaved backward with a Sword Radiance. The 3-meter long Sword Radiance lopped off a large tree trunk behind with a loud whoosh. One cultivator had not managed to dodge and was thrown several meters away by the force.

Xiao Chen focused his eyes and surveyed the scene. He realized that there were only four assassins left. The one leading them was Ling Yuxuan and he smirked coldly. ”Ha! Even your elder brother had failed to beat me! You are useless and looking for death!” As he spoke, he guarded warily against the other three assailants' flying swords, trying to quickly recover his True Energy.

Ling Yuxuan's countenance rapidly darkened. Since he was usually indulging in women and wine, his cultivation was far inferior to his elder brother Ling Yingfeng's. He could do what he liked only because his grandfather was an elder of the clan. He hated anyone who called him useless. He also harbored a deep grudge against Xiao Chen for ruining his adventure in the Human World.

He started to sneer from extreme anger. ”Hey hey! My brother told me that you have at least six Spiritual Meridians in your body. I shall take them all today!” He mobilized his True Energy vigorously and hacked at him with a swift and fierce Sword Qi.

Slashed by the Sword Qi, huge branches fell. Xiao Chen was surprised. This man's inner strength had soared since the last time they met in the Human World. He did not dare underestimate him. A white radiance streaked out from Xiao Chen's fingertips as he condensed his energy, countering the surging Sword Qi from Ling Yuxuan.

Ling Yuxuan's attack had been countered. He bellowed angrily, ”Why are you all standing still?”

The other three cultivators obeyed his order and started to strike from three directions with their swords. Cold radiances shot out in all directions, lighting up the entire forest. Xiao Chen was afraid that the others would arrive soon. He did not dare delay and started to draw three talismans. He mobilized his inner True Energy to the extreme. Beside him, Luo Shangyan realized that he was about to collapse. She condensed a white radiance and injected True Energy into his back.

Boosted by Luo Shangyan's healing arts, Xiao Chen immediately revived. He brandished out his Unsullied Sword quickly. Its Sword Qi was over three meters long and he swept it with a horizontal flourish. ”Zheng zheng zheng!” went the sword, severing the three cultivators' swords.

Although these three cultivators were on Lv 1 or 2 Foundation Building Realm, they had stayed in the Ling Family for too long. They lacked combat experience. After their Immortal's Swords were destroyed, they panicked and forgot to use their Qi to erect a defense shield.

A murderous intent flashed across Xiao Chen's eyes. He quickly mobilized his True Energy. The Unsullied Sword immediately turned into a 10-meter long white arc. With a whoosh, it lopped off two cultivators' heads, one after the other. Blood spurted three meters high.

The remaining cultivator was stunned. He came to himself and threw off the broken sword in his hand, looking to run. Yet he lacked experience, exposing his back for Xiao Chen to strike.

Xiao Chen snickered coldly and the Unsullied Sword began to quiver through his will. It whizzed and penetrated the man's back. Fresh blood splattered on the grass and trees all around.

By now, even Ling Yuxuan had reacted. Xiao Chen had slain three Foundation Building Realm Cultivators in a short period of time. His opponent's foundation had surpassed his expectations. He began to regret his carelessness.

However, it was too late. The Unsullied Sword in his hand, a murderous smile spread across Xiao Chen's lips. He strode step by step toward him. The Unsullied Sword had already slain three men in succession, yet its sword body was still sacred and spotlessly white, carrying a faint sheen without a trace of blood.

His silent, murderous intent permeated the entire forest. Ling Yuxuan knew he was ready to kill and his voice quavered in deep shock. ”What do you want? I am the young master of the Ling Family! If you kill me, prepare to be pursued forever... ”

”Ha ha! If I let you off, would the Ling Family thank me with tears? Die!” His murderous desire surged and he slashed his sword at his body. Suddenly, a white belt-like item snaked forward extremely rapidly. Even Xiao Chen with his extraordinary Divine Sense could not evade it.

It zipped across and bound around Xiao Chen's body. It seemed to be a rope glowing with a white sheen. The rope became tighter and tighter. Xiao Chen could not wrench himself free. Even his inner True Energy had been controlled by the rope. He could no longer mobilize it.

As he struggled desperately, an icy smile tugged at the corner of Ling Yuxuan's mouth. ”Even if a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator is bound by this immortal rope, he can't escape. Ha ha! Hand your Spiritual Meridians to me quietly... ”

Xiao Chen's heart missed a beat. Was this the legendary Immortal-Binding Rope, which could bind an Immortal King or a Deity King? He was too careless. Powerful cultivating families like the Lings would certainly have one or two useful magic treasures.

Not far away, Luo Shangyan's face paled with fright. ”Junior Brother Xiao!” Her snowy-white arms started to wave as a white radiance streaked across to the Immortal-Binding Rope. Yet after reaching it, the white radiance was absorbed and did not do anything.
