Inside the forest, Ye Chen's figure flashed as he moved in the air. The fierce wind blew at their robes, causing fluttering sounds to be heard.
Behind them, the experts of Zhu family did not give up. In fact, more and more were coming. All of them were urging their flying spirit beasts to exert pressure on Ye Chen and the others.
"As long as you are in Tianwu City, you can't escape. Give up now."
Behind him, a cold voice resounded. The guest elders of Zhu clan had finally arrived. Each of them was exuding a vigorous aura. Five of them were at the ninth Heavenly Layer of truth realm, and they were filled with an aggressive and arrogant aura.
Along with these guests, there were many experts of Zhu family. Although their strength had not reached the realm of Chaotic Primordial, they had the advantage in numbers. Even if they could not kill Ye Chen on the spot, they could continue to consume Ye Chen's Zhen Yuan.
In the sky, on the ground, in all directions, there were people of Zhu family. They had completely surrounded Ye Chen and the others.
"A group of noisy people!"
Ye Chen stopped his footsteps as that pulsating pitch-black Zhen Yuan spread out from his body once again. As the wind blew, that pitch-black Zhen Yuan flickered like a flame, causing even the light of the sun to dim a bit, losing its color.
Seeing that Ye Chen had stopped, Nie Feng and the other two also slowly stopped. They looked at the experts of Zhu family who were besieging them. Their eyes were filled with a strong fighting spirit.
"Don't make a move for the time being."
Ye Chen suddenly said. The eyes of the three slightly narrowed. They saw that Ye Chen had taken a few steps forward. Countless runes were floating all over his body, exuding an incomparably dazzling golden light. Moreover, this golden light was getting more and more intense. Just by looking at it, one's heart could not help but tremble.
"Let's take a few steps back for the time being."
Nie Feng turned his head and looked at the two women. His eyes were full of trust. He knew Ye Chen's character. He would never do things that he was not sure of. Since he had said so, he must have his reasons.
The two women nodded slightly and took a few steps back to observe.
"What a shameless brat. How dare you look down on us? How lawless!"
A truth ninth level master shouted in anger. He felt that he had been underestimated by a young man who was still wet behind the ears, so how could he not be angry.
"Hmph!"
Ye Chen coldly snorted. With a slight shift of his mind, a resounding cry rang out. Golden light soared into the sky, transforming into a boundless golden lake. Within the lake, golden light flashed. The Nine-Feathered Phoenix flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
"Soul Devouring!"
A cold and furious roar came out of Ye Chen's mouth. Immediately, boundless golden light flashed, covering the entire sky. In just a split second, the golden light arrived before every Zhu Clan expert. It was so resplendent and so sharp.
"It's just a fifth-level Yuan Formation. What can it do?"
A strong expert disdainfully said and immediately punched the golden light. He wanted to completely shatter the golden light, but the moment the golden light came into contact with his fist, his mind trembled crazily and a tingling sensation came from the depths of his soul. He could not help but howl in grief.
"Die!"
Ye Chen took a step forward and blasted out a punch. His fist was surrounded by the roars of dragons and tigers. It was a decisive killing move without any hesitation.
Boom!
Just as the expert recovered from his absent-minded state, a pair of incomparably sharp heavy fists appeared in his eyes and smashed into his chest, crushing all of his life force. He fell from the sky, and when he landed, a cloud of dust splashed into the air.
After beheading one expert, Ye Chen took a step forward. The pitch-black Zhen Yuan wrapped around his body, revealing only a pair of cold and indifferent eyes. His bloodthirsty eyes made the experts of Zhu Clan tremble. They unconsciously retreated half a step.
"We can't retreat. If we retreat, we won't be able to survive!"
A master of truth ninth layer had a drastic change in his complexion and almost roared. He took a deep breath and clenched a long blade in his hand. The Bladelight swept out and directly rushed towards Ye Chen. The speed of the Bladelight was extremely fast and the sharp Bladelight alone was enough to make people feel a tingling sensation.
The other four Truth Ninth Heavenly Layer experts also moved and rushed towards Ye Chen, forming an encirclement around him.
Ye Chen felt a slight pressure, and his eyes froze. His pupils flickered with resplendent golden light. With a glance, it was as if an invisible hand had pierced through space and directly pierced into the soul of the blade-wielding expert.
"Soul devouring!"
Golden light flashed in his eyes. That expert felt his soul being drawn into a vortex. His heart couldn't help but tremble violently. His eyes were lifeless, and he didn't move at all. He was dumbstruck like a wooden chicken.
"Die!"
Ye Chen clapped his hands and a terrifying pitch-black Zhen Yuan directly invaded the master's body. Zhen Yuan wreaked havoc in his body and in an instant, the master's internal organs were instantly crushed and a bloody hole appeared in his body. The master raised his head and his eyes were filled with disbelief and fear.
"With the enhancement of my strength, the soul devouring technique seems to have become even more powerful. It is now able to affect the strength of truth ninth layer."
Ye Chen's palm shook and the master's body was sent flying while whispering in his heart.
Just a moment ago, when he used the soul devouring technique, he could clearly feel that his soul power was much stronger than before. Just a glance was enough to make a master of truth ninth layer enter a state of absent-mindedness. Although it was only for a moment, but it was enough to change the entire battle situation.
"That move just now was too strange. It seems to be a bit beyond common sense."
Nie Feng looked at Ye Chen's figure and could not help but feel a lingering fear in his heart.
If he was facing such a situation a moment ago, he would not have 100% confidence that he would be able to escape with his life. Just a glance from Ye Chen was enough to make a master of truth ninth layer lose his mind. It was really strange.
"Why don't you fight?"
Ye Chen sneered and looked back at the other four masters of truth ninth layer. Just a moment ago, they were about to besiege him, but now they stopped and did not continue to approach him. Instead, they retreated a few steps in fear.
Ye Chen took a step forward and his eyes were once again dyed with golden light. That fierce killing intention began to pervade the entire space.
"If you kill one more member of my Zhu clan, I will exterminate your nine generations!"
A cold shout came from afar and reverberated in Ye Chen's mind, causing his body to tremble. He raised his head and looked into the distance. A group of Zhu clan's experts were rushing towards him, and the aura emitted from their leader's body had already surpassed the truth realm.
Just a moment ago, the cold voice was issued by this young man and it made Ye Chen's soul tremble.
"Young master Zhu Hao has arrived. Once he starts, you will die without a doubt."
A master of truth ninth layer sneered at Ye Chen with a gloomy face. Just a moment ago, Ye Chen dared to ridicule them, but now, as long as Zhu Hao arrived, they would reverse the entire situation. Even if Ye Chen was strong, he would not be able to defeat young master Zhu Hao.
"There are no absolutes in this world. Even if I die, I will drag you down with me."
Ye Chen spat out a word in an indifferent tone. With a thought, the nine-feathered phoenix phantom looked up to the sky and let out a long and loud roar. A golden light flashed and pierced through the void. Everyone's field of vision was filled with endless golden light.
"Die!"
