Zhong Chui looked at Giant Axe in front of him with an indifferent expression. "Quan Wan is dead. What's there to explain? Don't tell me … you want to avenge Quan Wan?"
The short Giant Axe pointed his thick finger at Zi Chen beside Zhong Chui and said loudly, "You said he killed Quan Wan. Do you think I'll believe you? Quan Wan's strength isn't something a mere human can kill."
"Quan Wan is a beast tamer. Only those higher life forms can kill him. How can a mere human kill him? Zhong Chui, we all know what you're thinking. But you should know what we're going to do next." The gorgeously dressed man looked at Zhong Chui and said, ignoring Zi Chen.
Although the mutated battle spirit Evil Soul didn't say anything, its face was filled with dissatisfaction.
After listening to their conversation, Zi Chen could tell that they didn't get along. As for being able to stand here and gather together, it was all because of what Zhong Chui said.
Zhong Chui didn't continue to explain for Zi Chen. Zi Chen understood that it was time to prove himself.
He held the scabbard in his left hand and took a step forward. With his right hand on the scabbard, he said indifferently, "Whoever wants to avenge Quan Wan, come at me."
"What a big tone."
Hearing Zi Chen's provocative words, Giant Axe was furious. He grabbed the handle of the huge axe and was about to step forward.
Suddenly, his gaze landed on the long blade in Zi Chen's hand as his pupils immediately shrunk. His original anger had actually disappeared by seventy percent at this moment.
Hun Xie and Duo Hun noticed the change in Giant Axe and looked at Zi Chen. Then, they saw the black scabbard in Zi Chen's hand.
Although the three of them hadn't fully awakened, the memories in the deepest part of their souls allowed them to recognize this item at a glance.
"It's Ba Dao's scabbard. Zhong Chui, you're really good at scheming."
After seeing the scabbard, the three of them shifted their gazes back to Zhong Chui. Their eyes became extremely cold.
Zi Chen was shocked. He didn't expect the scabbard to have such a great origin. It recognized almost all the awakened battle spirits he encountered.
In fact, Zi Chen did not know how many creatures this scabbard had killed in that great battle. When the Saber Drawing Technique was used, almost no one could compete with it.
At that time, amongst the cultivators that fought the Xeno-race, there were three commanders with the greatest reputation, and Ba Dao was one of them.
Hammer smiled faintly and said, "He is qualified, right?"
"Hmph." Giant Axe snorted coldly and said no more.
Duo Hun and Hun Xie had no more objections. Clearly, Zi Chen was qualified.
The three of them did not have any objections. However, they did not like Zi Chen either. Hence, Hammer was the only one who could explain what they were going to do next.
"We found a barrier. This barrier is very strange. It can sense the number of people attacking it and increase its defense. We tried many times, but we couldn't open it. The more people there are, the more impossible it is. After many tests, we came to the conclusion that only when five people work together can we have the highest chance of breaking the barrier."
Zi Chen nodded and asked, "Is there a passage behind the barrier?"
"It should be," Hammer said.
"Human, we originally wanted to find Controller Wan because we believed that he could break it. If you can't, I will definitely kill you," Giant Axe said coldly.
Faced with Giant Axe's threat, Zi Chen sneered and replied, "The saber in my hand has long been thirsty."
"Hmph, arrogant." Giant Axe snorted again.
"Alright, let's go. This area is almost deserted. Do you still want to stay here?" Hammer's voice was much colder.
The other three did not say anything. Zi Chen could see that they were afraid of Hammer.
After walking for about five miles, Zi Chen saw a high platform. There were five huge light pillars on the high platform. Runes were engraved on the surface of the light pillars, emitting brilliant light.
The moment he saw the high platform, Zi Chen's face was filled with surprise.
Earlier, he had been paying attention to his surroundings. During that time, he did not notice anything. Additionally, he did not get the feeling that he had stepped into another space.
"The way the power of space operates here is somewhat unique. You cannot sense it from the outside." Seeing the change in Zi Chen's expression, Hammer explained in a hushed tone.
The barrier that Hammer mentioned was located outside the high platform. Only by breaking the barrier could they enter the high platform. There was a high chance that the passage would lead them to the high platform.
The barrier was like a huge transparent bubble. It was upside down, enveloping the entire high platform.
The transparent bubble did not appear conspicuous. However, it had stopped the army of war spirits.
The other four moved in four different directions. Zi Chen found that they were standing at the central point of the two light pillars on the high platform. It just so happened that one of the central points was missing. Thus, Zi Chen walked over.
"I'll go first."
Giant Axe shouted and the huge axe in his hand trembled slightly. A violent aura radiated out from the axe. The axe, which was already huge in the first place, instantly grew several times larger. Like a divine axe that could split the heavens, it brought with it an unimaginable power as it hacked down on the barrier before them.
"Boom!"
The violent energy vibrated and a huge crater was instantly created on the barrier. Following that, the barrier began to distort violently at the place where the huge axe had struck.
After that attack, the huge axe did not retract. The violent energy was still gushing out. At the place where it had struck the barrier, endless light sputtered out. The light reflected Giant Axe's malevolent face.
"I'll go."
The second to attack was Duo Hun. A long spear appeared out of thin air in front of him. The long spear was surging with soul power as vast as the sea. He used his spiritual thoughts to control the long spear and it pierced through the barrier in front of him.
At the place where the long spear had struck, the barrier began to sink. Waves of soul power were like spirit snakes. With the point of attack as the center, they spread out in all directions.
In another direction, Zi Chen noticed that the horn on Duo Hun's forehead had disappeared. He suspected that the long spear was the manifestation of the horn. Clearly, the horn was a powerful soul remembrance weapon.
It was specialized against the soul. It was no wonder that Duo Hun was able to win against Controlled Wan. It was probably the credit of the soul tool.
Just as Zi Chen was observing Duo Hun's attack, Hun Xie also launched an attack. In his hand was the Evil Crescent Moon Blade. Its power was also extraordinary.
As the attack landed on the barrier, the Evil Crescent Moon Blade continued to rotate. Waves of vast and terrifying energy continuously surged into the barrier.
The attack power of the three was very strong. Under one attack, the barrier collapsed. Moreover, the attack power continued to pour in, increasing the degree of collapse of the barrier.
"The rebound power is very strong. I can't hold on for much longer." Giant Axe shouted.
In reality, his shout was meaningless. Before he could even finish, the world suddenly darkened. Following that, a huge black hammer appeared in the void. On top of the black hammer, there was an endless amount of black light. This black light was like a dark demonic aura. It carried a spirit as it descended from the sky.
Heavy Hammer's originally large body grew even taller, while the power within his body surged violently. Holding the giant hammer in his hand, he stomped his right foot forward, causing the ground to violently tremble. Following which, Heavy Hammer roared out, before the black hammer instantly smashed downwards.
"Boom."
The black hammer smashed down, causing the void to tremble. This blow landed heavily on the barrier, causing it to collapse. Following that, a crazy and powerful energy passed through the barrier and rushed towards Zi Chen.
In front of Zi Chen, where he was supposed to attack, there was an additional energy that belonged to Heavy Hammer. This energy was wreaking havoc on the barrier.
Zi Chen knew that this was Hammer's way of helping him. Thus, he looked at Hammer gratefully.
When the other three saw this, they looked at each other and sneered.
Heavy Hammer's action indirectly proved that the human was not strong. They did not have to worry about the human anymore.
"Attack."
As the attacks of the four landed, Hammer bellowed out.
In everyone's imagination, Zi Chen would definitely draw his blade. However, they were disappointed.
Zi Chen did not draw his blade. He only clenched his fist.
On the faces of the three, including Heavy Hammer, there was a strange look.
"This is not a joke. Use your strongest attack." Duo Hun shouted coldly.
"If you ruin this, I will definitely kill you." Giant Axe threatened.
"Human, I will give you time to draw your blade." Hun Xie's voice was incomparably cold. Even his eyes were filled with cold killing intent.
Heavy Hammer frowned slightly. However, he did not say anything. Since he had found Zi Chen, he would naturally choose to believe him.
The moment he clenched his fist, a thunderous sound came from Zi Chen's body. The thunderous sound was very loud. Other than that, everyone could also hear the sound of hammering.
That was Zi Chen's heart beating vigorously. A powerful thunder force was transmitted to every part of his body.
A violent and domineering force was instantly emitted from Zi Chen's body. At this moment, there seemed to be two thunder dragons in Zi Chen's eyes. His eyes were cold and emotionless.
On Zi Chen's chest, a dazzling silver light appeared. This light was like a bright Xing Chen.
The violent Zi Chen gave off a dangerous feeling. Moreover, his aura had obviously reached the First Domain Realm at this moment.
Everyone's faces were filled with surprise. None of them expected Zi Chen to have such a move.
In the next moment, Zi Chen's fist shone with a dazzling light. This was the result of a powerful force gathering. It was like another Xing Chen.
Just like that, he threw out a punch.
"Boom!"
As the punch was thrown out, a sharp whistling sound rang in the air. This punch tore through the air and shook the space. It directly landed on the light shield in front of him.
As the punch landed, Zi Chen felt a strong rebounding force. However, this rebounding force was weak in the face of an unstoppable attack.
In an instant, the rebounding force was destroyed. Under the naked eye, the light shield started to sink rapidly.
"Do it."
The other four people shouted. Then, the five forces moved together. The entire light shield started to tremble violently. In the midst of the trembling, small cracks appeared.
"Boom!"
When the five forces went berserk, the cracks on the light shield spread to the limit. With a loud bang, it exploded.
"Haha, finally out."
