Seeing the old man retreat, Xiao Chen didn't make another move. Although he had comprehended the Slaughter Will, it was still in the embryonic stage. He was still pacing back and forth in front of the gate, like looking at a flower through a fog. Moreover, the old man had already broken free from his Slaughter Will, so he had already lost the opportunity to attack.
On the other hand, Xiang Mo, who managed to dodge Xiao Chen's sure-kill attack in a hurry, wasn't feeling very comfortable either. Traces of brutality were constantly tearing at his soul, causing him to fall into a trance. At the same time, the berserk energy was channeled into his body through the silver-white battle saber, causing the blood and Qi in his body to surge like a tsunami.
At this moment, his face was as pale as steel, as if he had lost a relative. As the Great Elder of the overlord tribe in the Giant Rock Valley, he had been forced to retreat by a nobody, and had almost died. This made his face burn. As the Great Elder of one of the four overlord tribes in the Giant Rock Valley, if this news were to spread, the reputation he had built up over a hundred years would be destroyed. This was something he absolutely couldn't allow.
As the Great Elder of the Treasure Elephant Tribe, the reason why he had dominated the Great Wilderness was because of his reputation. Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but look at the survivors around him, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Only the dead could keep secrets. He would never allow this shameful thing to spread.
In this blood-colored battlefield, when the survivors saw the emotionless eyes of the old man, whether it was the soldiers of the Gu Yuan Tribe or the remaining soldiers of the Mysterious Snake and Kui Shui Tribes, they couldn't help but shiver. Their bodies involuntarily shrank, as if the old man's eyes were filled with endless madness.
"Brat, don't think that you can be so arrogant just because you have comprehended the Martial Will. Even if you are a genius, you are still trash if you haven't grown up. Don't you understand the principle that the beam that sticks out rots first? In my opinion, you are just an idiot!"
Although there was a hint of disdain in Xiang Mo's tone, he was secretly on guard against Xiao Chen, who had forced him into such a situation. As the Great Elder of the Treasure Elephant Tribe, and having held this position for a hundred years, how could he not have a deep impression of himself?
At this moment, he only said this to provoke Xiao Chen. After all, Xiao Chen was young and had such a high level of cultivation. In his opinion, it was inevitable that he would be arrogant. Unfortunately, his wishful thinking didn't work, and his provocation didn't have any effect. It was true that Xiao Chen was arrogant, but Xiao Chen 'arrogance was unyielding!
He was an indomitable backbone, so he didn't care about the sarcasm in the old man's words.
Xiang Mo's words didn't cause Xiao Chen to react in the slightest, and he didn't say anything to mock him. The old man knew that Xiao Chen wasn't a hot-tempered and hot-tempered person. The only way was to fight fair and square, using one's fists to decide who was right and who was wrong.
Following which, the old man coldly snorted, and a sharp killing intent burst forth from his eyes. The silver-white sabre in his hand suddenly shot out a ten meter long beam of cold light, causing a crack to appear on the ground. Strands of Battle Qi spread out from the crack, disrupting everything in its path. In the blink of an eye, the sabre light arrived in front of Xiao Chen.
As the Great Elder of the Treasure Elephant Tribe, the cultivation technique he cultivated was naturally not ordinary. As he slashed out with his sabre, the dazzling snow-white light that contained a terrifying killing intent caused the expressions of everyone present to change.
The sabre light was dazzling, but it also contained a terrifying killing intent. In the face of an all-out attack from a late Blood Refining realm cultivator, Xiao Chen stared straight at the sabre light, and an azure light flashed in his eyes. His body began to emit an azure light, and his muscles began to bulge out from beneath his leather armor.
At the same time, Essence Qi rose from behind him like billowing smoke. His entire body's Blood Qi was mobilized, and his bones and tendons resonated in unison. Dense Essence Qi flowed out from his bones, meridians, and muscles, condensing into a faint illusory figure behind him. Unfortunately, his body hadn't been tempered to the pinnacle, so he couldn't condense the illusory figure behind him.
Even so, the moment the illusory figure appeared, the entire ground seemed to be unable to bear its weight and began to tremble. At this moment, Xiao Chen was going all out. Whether it was Battle Qi or physical strength, he released it all without holding anything back. Facing a late Blood Refining realm cultivator, he needed to use his full strength.
"Your Blood Qi is like smoke, and your body possesses the strength of ten thousand catties. Brat, you're really giving me more and more surprises. However, if you think you can block this Elder's sabre with just your physical body, you're really courting death!"
The old man slashed out with his sabre. Seeing that Xiao Chen's Blood Qi was like a rainbow, and that he was using his physical body to block the attack, he was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Thinking back to how Xiao Chen had been cut into pieces by the sabre light, he couldn't help but sneer.
Clang! Clang!
Clang! In the next moment, a series of metallic clangs rang out. White and azure light intertwined and devoured each other. The Battle Qi was accompanied by boundless killing intent as it collided with each other. Ripples appeared on the ground, and everything within a hundred feet of it was destroyed. Not only that, but everyone quickly distanced themselves from the center of the storm, afraid that they would be caught in the crossfire.
The strong impact caused Xiao Chen to retreat repeatedly. The spear in his hand was like a phoenix, constantly dispersing the Battle Qi that was flying towards him. When the surroundings had calmed down, Xiang Mo's eyes widened, and his face was filled with disbelief.
Dozens of zhang away, Xiao Chen, who he thought should have been chopped into a thousand pieces by the saber light, was emitting a green light. Although the leather armor on his body was somewhat damaged, the aura that his body emitted was condensed and did not dissipate. He stood at his original position like an abyss and a mountain. The aura of the surrounding dozens of zhang was drawn in by him. His entire body was on high alert. If there was even the slightest movement, he would definitely strike at lightning speed.
His full-powered attack, which contained boundless ice-cold killing intent, had completely dissipated. However, other than a few cuts on the leather armor of the person in front of him, it didn't seem to cause much damage to him.
"How is this possible?"
Xiang Mo began to doubt his own strength. As a late Blood Refining Realm cultivator, he had borrowed a strand of the world's energy to launch an attack, yet he couldn't even kill a mid Blood Refining Realm cultivator. He didn't even suffer any serious injuries. This didn't make sense at all.
He lightly moved his body, and a series of crackling sounds immediately rang out. His body, which was originally in a state of operation, temporarily slowed down. The strength of a late Blood Refining Realm cultivator was indeed extraordinary. Being in the middle of the storm of the old man's attack had brought him a trace of pain, and he wasn't as calm as he looked.
The wisps of coldness contained in the old man's Battle Qi constantly stimulated his meridians, muscles, and bones. Xiao Chen felt as if he was tied up by an invisible rope.
