In this battle, Zi Chen and the others undoubtedly won a great victory, but they also realized their own shortcomings.
They had only just entered the fifth floor, but they had already encountered an existence like the brawny man. And according to the brawny man, he didn't seem to be the strongest among them.
The deeper they went, the greater the danger, and it was possible to encounter stronger existences. After this battle, Zi Chen faintly had a bad feeling that he might encounter some humans who had successfully broken through to the Domain Realm.
After killing the brawny man's group, Zi Chen and the others were temporarily safe in this area. Next, they would look for battle beasts and battle spirits to spar with. Zi Chen didn't have a method to teach mid-rank skills for the time being, so he could only tell them some of his experience, hoping that it would be helpful.
Everyone stayed here for seven days. During these seven days, except for Zi Chen, everyone was looking for opponents to spar with. Of course, Zi Chen wasn't idle either. The perfect spiritual sense in his Sea of Consciousness turned into a light shadow and quickly appeared.
Mid-Rank Level 1 Battle Skill: Explosive Killing Fist.
During these seven days, Zi Chen's understanding of the Explosive Killing Fist had deepened.
After Zi Chen shared some of his experiences with the others, they gradually gained some insights as well.
"Zi Chen, I found traces of humans."
Another morning, Liu Wei and Wang Jun, who had not returned for an entire night, brought back a piece of news. Initially, the two of them were opponents, and Wang Jun had lost to Liu Wei. However, after spending some time together, the relationship between the two of them had improved.
"Are they still from Liao Wei City?" Zi Chen opened his eyes and asked.
"I'm not sure. We turned back after hearing the sound of battle, but from the sound, it should be a large-scale battle. There should be a lot of people on the other side," Liu Wei said.
"To kill or not to kill?"
Wu Xie and the others were all excited when they heard this. They all walked over and asked Zi Chen for his opinion.
To kill or not to kill, Zi Chen was also hesitating.
"The strong preys on the weak. This is the law of the world. If we don't kill them, they will kill us instead," Jia Wei said as he walked over.
Obviously, with Zi Chen's powerful battle strength, there was no need for them to be afraid of anything. It was necessary for them to fight for their lives.
Moreover, everyone had too few luck points. If they wanted to encounter opportunities, they would need to continuously increase their luck points.
"Kill? Why aren't we killing?" Man Shi also shouted.
Zi Chen looked at the others and found that everyone more or less had the intention to fight. He nodded and said, "Alright, let's go and take a look, but be careful."
Zi Chen only gave a few simple instructions. After all, he still had some tricks up his sleeve. Even if he realized that something was wrong, he would still be able to escape with everyone.
…
…
In a huge mountain forest, a fierce battle was breaking out. The two sides of the battle were humans and beasts.
There were more than a dozen beasts, and almost all of them looked the same. It was obvious that they were from the same clan. However, there were more than fifty humans participating in the battle.
The person in the lead was wearing dark armor. His eyes were as cold as a blade. He held a long blade in his hand. When he swung the blade, sharp blades would appear.
In front of him, there was a huge beast emitting an extremely tyrannical aura. When it charged, it would bring about an extremely powerful force.
At this moment, there were several wounds on the body of this giant beast that had been cut by the sharp blade.
"Demonic Blade Slash."
The man in the dark-colored battle armor roared with every attack. Soon after, a black blade light shot out like a waterfall. It brought along layers of spatial pressure as it slashed the body of the giant beast.
It could be seen that in terms of comprehension, the man was much better than the beast. However, the beast's skin was rough and its defense was too strong. That was why he couldn't break through it for a long time.
After another slash, the beast was knocked back. The man cursed, "Damn it, why are we so unlucky to encounter so many beasts? Now that we've made such a big commotion, I'm afraid it will attract people from Liao Wei City."
Thinking about how terrifying Liao Wei City's cultivators were, the man's heart palpitated. He shouted, "Let's end this quickly."
Because there were so many of them, and because they were all worried that Liao Wei City's cultivators would come after hearing the commotion, everyone put in more effort, and the killing efficiency increased greatly.
Soon, the other beasts were dealt with. Then, everyone worked together again to kill the big guy.
"Bang."
As the big guy fell to the ground, the battle was declared over.
This battle was a complete victory for their group, but there were also a few unlucky people who were accidentally killed during the battle.
"Damn it, we haven't even reached the area where Yanbo Castle is, and we've already lost dozens of people." The man couldn't help but look angry.
Because of some cooperation this time, the two sides had made some kind of agreement before coming here. As long as the people from Northwind City could reach the area where Yanbo Castle was, they could find opportunities there.
However, on the way forward, they had to be careful of the battle spirits and beasts, as well as the people from Liao Wei City, so their speed was greatly reduced.
As soon as the battle ended, before everyone could catch their breath, they sensed some movement.
The face of the man in the lead changed instantly. He suddenly turned around to look behind him, and the long saber in his hand couldn't help but tremble.
The others obviously also noticed the abnormality. When they turned around, their faces became extremely ugly.
Practically all the cultivators of Liao Wei City had mastered King Tier Combat Skills, and they were almost as difficult to deal with as Battle Beasts. If they were to be blocked by them, then most of them would probably die here. Most importantly, their plan to go deep into the city this time was obviously going to end in failure.
However, after turning around, they were shocked to find that there were only a dozen people. Moreover, after sensing the city numbers in their Knowledge Sea, everyone was stunned.
"107, 108, aren't these the numbers of Lu Guang City and Hu Ping City? Why are they here?"
The group of more than fifty people felt extremely puzzled and puzzled. Some people who knew some kind of secret looked at them in disbelief. If the situation had developed according to normal circumstances, they should have been annihilated long ago.
Just as these people were feeling surprised, the faces of the dozen people behind them also had the same look of surprise.
"106, they are from Northwind City."
Zi Chen's face was obviously stunned. He originally thought that the humans fighting were from Liao Wei City. After all, this was their territory, but he didn't expect to encounter people from Northwind City.
Originally, Zi Chen came to take a look. If he could fight, he would fight. If he couldn't, he would retreat. However, after seeing the people from Northwind City, he had to fight.
And … these people must die.
"People from Northwind City."
"These guys actually came here too."
Wu Xie and the others didn't look good, especially Ge Wei and the others. After all, four of them had died in the hands of the people from Northwind City.
The cultivators from Northwind City, who were originally extremely nervous, heaved a huge sigh of relief after seeing Zi Chen and the others.
Compared to Liao Wei City, the cultivators from these two cities were really not worth mentioning.
A cultivator patted his chest and said with some trepidation, "I was scared to death. I thought a powerful existence had come. I didn't expect to encounter a group of lucky guys."
"Indeed, they should not have encountered our people since they were able to come here alive. It can indeed be called lucky."
Every area here was big enough, so it was normal for the two parties not to encounter each other. Therefore, some cultivators from Northwind City only felt surprised and didn't think too much about it.
The crowd, who had completely relaxed, looked at Zi Chen and the others with eyes full of ridicule and killing intent. The weapons in their hands were also suffused with a cold light. Waves of killing intent seeped out of their bodies and locked onto Zi Chen and the others.
This was the reality. They were afraid of the people from Liao Wei City, but they weren't afraid of Zi Chen and the others. Therefore … they killed them on sight.
Zi Chen and the others didn't stop and walked straight ahead. Facing the killing intent, they didn't have the slightest fear on their faces.
Zi Chen stopped ten meters away from the leader and calmly looked at him.
"Interesting. You guys are lucky to have come here. Instead of running after seeing so many of us, you actually dare to take the initiative to come forward and court death." The leader smiled coldly and waved the long saber in his hand.
Zi Chen was too lazy to explain anything. He just looked at the other party and calmly said, "It seems that you also use a saber. I saw that you used a move just now. It doesn't seem to be a First Grade King Level Combat Skill."
The leader had a complacent look on his face and said proudly, "Of course, that's a Middle Grade Combat Skill, Demonic Saber Slash. If the comprehension is high enough, its power is not weaker than a High Grade Combat Skill. You guys shouldn't be able to come into contact with such a high-level thing."
Zi Chen nodded and said truthfully, "Indeed, I can't come into contact with it, so I took a fancy to your move."
"You're courting death."
Before the leader could speak, a cultivator beside him shouted. Then, seven cultivators made a move to kill Zi Chen.
Zi Chen glanced at the seven people indifferently and said, "It seems that the seven of you should have comprehended a Low Grade Combat Skill."
When the leader saw that Zi Chen was so calm, he didn't know why he had a bad feeling in his heart. This time, he didn't answer and directly slashed down with his saber. At the same time, he shouted, "Demonic Saber Slash."
The saber light was like a waterfall and directly attacked Zi Chen in front of him. He directly attacked.
The two of them were only ten meters apart. His saber slashed Zi Chen without any suspense, but Zi Chen's figure in front of him disappeared like a phantom.
Just as he was feeling extremely surprised, he found that the surrounding environment had changed. The place where he was standing was no longer solid ground, but a world full of colorful light.
"What is this place?"
Just as he was looking around in surprise, he heard the exclamation of his companions beside him. He turned around and saw that there were only seven people left in the original team of dozens.
