One strike was enough to kill Zi Xin, who was at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm.
Most importantly, even Elder Mo Yiqing and the other elders did not notice how Fang Chen did it.
"This …"
Mo Yiqing's face was filled with shock. How long had it been, and this kid had already grown to such a level? Too scary.
At this moment, in front of the Life and Death Arena, countless disciples had their mouths wide open as they looked at the scene in disbelief.
If it wasn't for the fact that Zi Xin's body was on the Life and Death Arena, they wouldn't have believed that the scene in front of them was real.
"How did Fang Chen kill Zi Xin?"
"One strike, just one strike was enough to kill Zi Xin without any resistance. How strong does one need to be to do this?"
"Oh my god, is Fang Chen a monster? His progress is too fast."
"A month ago, I heard from Wei Wu Shuang that Fang Chen's strength was only comparable to a warrior at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm. Now, only a month has passed and he is able to instantly kill an early stage warrior at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm."
"No wonder Fang Chen didn't want to fight with Zi Xin. His strength is enough to crush Zi Xin."
Many disciples were shocked, but they were also discussing. Fang Chen had given them too much of a shock.
Fang Chen slowly put away the Star Concealing Sword, turned around and left.
Seeing Fang Chen's back as he left, the Law Enforcement Elder's heart was in turmoil. If he didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that everything in front of him was real.
The news of Fang Chen killing Zi Xin with a single move spread like wildfire in the outer court of the Sword Reverence Sect. Everyone in the outer court of the Sword Reverence Sect was talking about Fang Chen.
Some disciples even thought that with Fang Chen's strength, he could be ranked in the top ten of the outer sect.
Fang Chen killing Zi Xin with his powerful strength attracted the attention of many outer sect disciples. Even the top ten inner sect disciples began to pay attention to Fang Chen.
And Fang Chen was still cultivating as usual.
In a month's time, the Sword Worshipping Sect's outer disciples' grand competition would begin. Fang Chen's goal this time was to take the first place in the outer disciples' competition.
Of course, if he wanted to obtain first place in the Outer Sect, he had to defeat Xia Houwu. Xia Houwu's strength was too tyrannical, and Fang Chen did not have much confidence in defeating him.
However, he would do his best.
One day, Fang Chen was cultivating. Suddenly, his expression changed slightly. He noticed that the number of Upper Grade Spirit Stones in his interspatial ring was decreasing rapidly.
"What happened?"
Fang Chen was puzzled. He immediately looked into the spatial ring. If he didn't look, he wouldn't have known, but when he did, he was shocked.
Inside the interspatial ring was an extremely demonic longsword. This longsword was emitting a terrifying radiance.
At this moment, the Demonic Longsword was rapidly devouring the Upper Spiritual Stones in the Space Ring.
"This …"
When Fang Chen saw this scene, he was a little surprised. This longsword was the longsword that the powerful python had transformed into in order to avoid the Lightning Tribulation in the inner area of the sword range. At this moment, this longsword was actually devouring Spirit Stones.
"Could it be that it wants to return to its python form?" Fang Chen secretly guessed.
Python transforming into a sword was an extremely profound magic technique belonging to the python branch. Once the python was unable to withstand the tribulation lightning, it could transform into a longsword and then find a human to become its master. In the following years, it could only exist in the human world in the form of a longsword.
But once it had absorbed enough energy, it would return to its python form.
At that time, its strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
Under Fang Chen's gaze, the Demonic Longsword had already devoured ten thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones. Seeing this, Fang Chen felt a bit of pain.
However, the Demonic Longsword was still absorbing.
Two hours later, the Demonic Longsword finally stopped. At this time, Fang Chen discovered that the Demonic Longsword had absorbed a total of fifty thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones.
“”
Fang Chen was a bit speechless. The Golden Heart absorbed Spirit Stones, the Little Mouse absorbed Spirit Stones, and now even the Demonic Longsword was absorbing Spirit Stones.
After the Demonic Longsword finished absorbing the Spirit Stones, it stopped moving.
Then, Fang Chen continued to cultivate.
Three days later, Fang Chen's cultivation had reached a bottleneck. He needed to go out and sharpen himself.
In the end, Fang Chen chose a mountain range not far from Sword State City. There were many powerful monsters in this mountain range. It was just right for Fang Chen to sharpen himself.
After two hours, Fang Chen arrived at the mountain range. He glanced at it and then walked into the mountain range.
As soon as he entered the mountain range, Fang Chen discovered some powerful monsters.
Whoosh!
A monster attacked Fang Chen. However, it was easily killed by Fang Chen's Hidden Star Sword.
"There are so many monsters."
Fang Chen thought to himself. Then, he continued to move forward.
For the rest of the time, Fang Chen was looking for monsters to battle.
In one day, Fang Chen had killed more than ten monsters at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm. These monsters could not withstand Fang Chen's attacks. Especially when Fang Chen used the Great Luo Soul Killing Flame, it was extremely powerful.
At this moment, not far from Fang Chen, there was a battle.
Three warriors at the sixth level of the Qi Hai realm were attacking a monster at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm.
"Damn it, we were so careful. How could we meet a monster at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm?"
A man in blue clothes said with a gloomy voice. His face was full of blood.
"Damn it, we worked so hard to get the Water Essence. Are we going to give it up just like that?"
"I can't accept this!"
The three of them shouted angrily as they fought with the monster at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm.
The three of them were at the sixth level of the Qi Hai realm. Although they were able to fight evenly with the monster at the beginning, as time passed, the three of them felt that they were losing their strength.
"I'll cover the back, you guys go quickly."
Suddenly, the blue clothed man let out a loud roar and a terrifying aura exploded from his body. He pushed the other two away and faced the seventh level Qi Hai beast alone.
"Big brother Lan."
The two who were pushed away saw the man in blue fighting the monster alone and called out worriedly. But after hearing the man in blue's heart-wrenching scream, they made a painful decision and prepared to leave.
"You guys go quickly. As long as we bring the Water Essence back, we will have completed our mission." The man in blue roared as he fought with the monster.
Puchi
As soon as the man in blue finished speaking, his arm was torn off by the monster's claw. Blood splattered all over the sky.
In the next moment, the man in blue was sent flying by the monster at the seventh level of the Qi Hai realm.
Bang
With a loud sound, the man in blue's body landed on the ground in front of the two warriors who were preparing to leave.
"Big brother Lan."
The two of them cried out in pain.
"You guys go quickly."
The man in blue spat out blood and shouted desperately. Seeing that the monster was about to attack, the man in blue was anxious.
No matter what, they had to bring the Water Essence back, or else their mission would be considered a failure.
He knew what it meant to fail the mission. Even if he had to die, he had to protect the two in front of him.
"No, we won't go. If we die, we die together." One of the men shouted crazily.
"That's right, big brother Lan, we can't abandon you." The other man shouted.
Dong
The monster was quickly approaching and the three of them were prepared to die.
At this moment, a voice sounded.
"Hand over the Water Essence and I can guarantee your safety."
Hearing this voice, the three of them turned their heads to look. To their surprise, they discovered that a white-robed figure had appeared behind them out of nowhere.
"Yes." Big brother Lan heard this and his eyes flashed: "Can you really guarantee our safety?"
Fang Chen nodded. Big brother Lan said: "Okay, we can give you the Water Essence, but you have to help us kill the monster first."
As soon as Big Brother Lan finished speaking, the Demonic Beast's attack also came. Fang Chen pushed off the ground and stood in front of Big Brother Lan and the other two. His orange level soul instantly came out of his body and condensed into a fire dragon, which instantly attacked the Demonic Beast.
The Daluo Soul Killer Flame. This was the first time Fang Chen used it on a monster.
Puchi
When the fire dragon hit the demonic beast's body, it immediately burned and the demonic beast's head exploded.
"It's really strong."
In the blink of an eye, the Daluo Soul Killer Flame killed the monster. Seeing this, the three of them heaved a sigh of relief. The crisis was finally over.
In fact, Fang Chen was walking not far away when he suddenly sensed a battle and quickly came over.
He originally didn't plan on fighting, but after hearing about the Water Essence, Fang Chen's interest was greatly piqued.
Others might not know about the Water Essence, but Fang Chen was the most clear about it. The Water Essence could raise the concept of water.
If he could obtain the Water Essence, perhaps his concept of water could reach the second minor realm. At that time, the power of his Fire Water Sword Art would be even more powerful.
So Fang Chen proposed a trade.
At this moment, the monster was killed. Fang Chen walked in front of the three of them and extended his hand: "Water Essence."
At this moment, the three of them slowly stood up. The man in blue who was the leader carefully sized up Fang Chen and said, "Brother, we are from the Southern Mountains' Lan Family. The purpose of this mission is to obtain the Water Spirit Essence."
"Although we agreed to give you the Water Essence in a moment of desperation, the Water Essence is very important to us. Brother, can you change the reward?" asked the man in blue.
In that moment of desperation, the three of them had no choice but to agree to Fang Chen's request. But now that the crisis was over, they naturally had to negotiate with Fang Chen.
Once the Water Essence was handed over, their mission would still be a failure.
So the man in blue revealed their identity. The Southern Mountain Range's Lan family.
They thought that Fang Chen would be extremely shocked after hearing about the Southern Mountain Range's Lan family. Perhaps he would give up the Water Essence because of how powerful the Southern Mountain Range's Lan family was.
However, Fang Chen was indifferent. His hand was still extended in the air. "I only want the Water Essence."
