Death Grip
Meng Xiner bit her lip. She had always thought that the matter of the Soul Controlling Poison was kept very secret, and that Xing Chen could never know about it. Unexpectedly, Xing Chen had already known, but had just not revealed it.
The reason she had taken action against Xing Chen in the first place was because she recognized Xing Chen's potential. Even in the early stages of the Earth Soul Realm, he could withstand a mid-stage Soul Realm expert, which was undoubtedly a tremendous potential.
"Since you know I used poison on you, why don't you take action against me? With your current strength, I would definitely not be your opponent," Meng Xiner said, lightly biting her red lips as she looked at Xing Chen.
"The most important thing now is for us to leave here quickly. We can deal with everything else later. If we delay any longer, we really won't be able to escape," Xing Chen said, taking a deep breath. This was definitely not the time to pursue this matter; what they should do now was to take down the few people outside and then get out as soon as possible.
"This is the last Soul Controlling Pill," Meng Xiner said, giving Xing Chen a deep look before producing a pill in her hand.
This pill was indeed the Soul Controlling Pill. Anyone who took it would be controlled by the Soul Control Bell in Meng Xiner's hand.
Xing Chen took the Soul Controlling Pill from Meng Xiner's hand, rubbed it between his palms, crushed it into powder, and then his eyes flashed with cold light. In an instant, he transformed into a streak of starlight and appeared on the second-floor plaza like lightning. He then raised his palm slightly, and the powder of the Soul Controlling Poison instantly scattered with the wind. The several members of the Zhi Family across from him did not notice the Soul Controlling Poison in Xing Chen's palm. Upon seeing him emerge, they hurriedly threw Thunderfire Bombs.
"Quick, we can't let him escape! We must hold on until the family head returns!" one of the Zhi Family members shouted loudly. In an instant, dozens of Thunderfire Bombs fell from the sky, crashing down towards Xing Chen.
Thunderfire Divine Shield!
Xing Chen secretly activated the Thunderfire Pearl, and a layer of purplish-red light shield appeared in front of him, protecting him firmly. More than ninety percent of the Thunderfire Bombs were dodged by Xing Chen; those that didn't were blocked by the Thunderfire Divine Shield.
At that moment, a crisp ringing sound suddenly rang out. The people throwing Thunderfire Bombs seemed to lose their souls and stood there in a daze.
Seeing this, Xing Chen's eyes lit up. Purple wind and thunder quickly gathered, and then he struck out with his palm as if a thunder god had descended to suppress all beings. Thousands of bolts of lightning struck out simultaneously, spreading a force of destruction across the ground.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The few Zhi Family disciples did not even have time to resist before being obliterated under Xing Chen's palm.
After killing these Zhi Family disciples, Xing Chen collected all the remaining dozens of Thunderfire Bombs into the Thunderfire Divine Ring. Then he stepped forward, leaving behind trails of afterimages as he instantly disappeared from the second-floor plaza.
Meng Xiner watched Xing Chen's series of actions in astonishment. Although she knew that Xing Chen was formidable, she did not expect him to eliminate several disciples of the Zhi Family in just a few moments. After all, they were strong individuals from the Soul Realm.
After a brief moment of shock, Meng Xiner quickly activated her movement technique to catch up with Xing Chen.
Not long after they left, the head of the Zhi Family, Azure Wind Phoenix, arrived with a dark expression. He had already been to the final layer and saw nothing but the Crystal Coffin and the corpse of the Thunderfire Deity; he did not find anything else, let alone the Inheritance.
Just as he was about to continue searching, he received news that someone had come to the second layer attempting to break through. Azure Wind Phoenix immediately thought that this person must be the one who obtained the Inheritance. No matter what, he could not let them escape. Thus, Azure Wind Phoenix rushed to the second layer plaza without stopping.
"How could I be late? Who exactly obtained the Inheritance?" Looking at the bodies of the Zhi Family disciples around him, Azure Wind Phoenix's eyes were filled with anger as he turned to the Zhi Family disciple who had reported to him and asked.
"Master, as soon as that person showed up, we used a Thunderfire Bomb to blast them back, so we don't know who they are," the disciple replied with a hint of bitterness.
"Worthless! A bunch of useless fools! I provided you with so many Thunderfire Bombs, yet you couldn't stop that person and ended up being killed instead!" Azure Wind Phoenix roared with a ferocious expression.
"Azure Wind Phoenix, I've been looking for you for a long time; I finally found you." At this moment, a voice filled with hatred came from nearby; its owner was Zhen Hanhe.
"The Inheritance of the Thunderfire Deity has been snatched away by someone else. That person must be you, Azure Wind Phoenix! Hand over the Inheritance, and we won't make things difficult for you," Zhen Hanhe said coldly while Xun Yuhuan stood behind him, also glaring at Azure Wind Phoenix.
"Nonsense! If I had obtained the Inheritance, would I still be wasting time here with you?" Azure Wind Phoenix shouted angrily, his face darkened as he waved his sleeve.
While these individuals were arguing, Xing Chen and Meng Xiner had already reached the top level of the Thunderfire Temple.
"How can we leave this place?" Xing Chen glanced at Meng Xiner. They had reached the top level, but he still needed to ask her how to exit.
"In the room where we first entered, there is a Teleportation Array that can take us out," Meng Xiner said, looking at Xing Chen with a complex expression. After all, she had previously attempted to control him. Once they left, no one knew if Xing Chen would turn against her.
"Don't worry. If I really wanted to harm you, you wouldn't have made it this far. Although I'm not a good person, I'm not one to play schemes against you. As long as you take me out of here, I will definitely not harm you," Xing Chen assured her with a glance that revealed his understanding of her thoughts.
"I'm sorry about what happened before..." Meng Xiner lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong.
"You don't need to explain to me. With all the benefits I've gained this time, I should actually thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have gotten these things. So, I won't hold it against you for poisoning me," Xing Chen waved his hand.
"This is yours. If you seek revenge on me outside, I definitely won't let you off," Meng Xiner waved her fist, and a smile appeared on her pretty face again.
"Shh..." Xing Chen suddenly made a gesture for silence towards Meng Xiner, then slightly moved his ears and his expression became serious: "Someone is chasing us from behind."
"What should we do?" Meng Xiner's pretty face also turned tense at that moment.
"Blow them back," Xing Chen suddenly produced a Thunderfire Bomb in his hand and threw it fiercely towards the back.
With a loud bang, the road behind them was instantly blown apart, and an angry voice came through.
"Azure Wind Phoenix, this is your fault! If it weren't for you bringing so many Thunderfire Bombs, how could others benefit? If we can't catch them this time, I swear I won't let this go," the roar came from Xun Yuhuan. Their royal family had paid a hefty price to obtain the Inheritance of the Thunderfire Deity. If they ended up with nothing, there would be no reason for him as the Crown Prince to continue; he would surely be discarded by the Emperor.
Just moments ago, Azure Wind Phoenix and others had debated in the second-floor plaza for a while before finally reaching a consensus. They confirmed that the Inheritance had been obtained by Xing Chen and Meng Xiner. Thus, these individuals set aside their grudges and united to hunt down Xing Chen and Meng Xiner.
At that moment, several more Thunderfire Bombs were thrown over, causing Azure Wind Phoenix and Xun Yuhuan to retreat immediately.
This was no joke; if hit directly by a Thunderfire Bomb below the Yang Spirit Realm, there would be no chance of survival. Of course, Xing Chen was able to escape disaster thanks to the protection of the Thunderfire Pearl.
"Lin Fei?" At that moment, Xing Chen and Meng Xiner had entered the room where they first arrived. Seeing the person in the room, Xing Chen couldn't help but pause slightly.
"What are you doing here?" Xing Chen looked at Lin Fei, his gaze flickering with cold light. If Lin Fei made any sudden moves, he would definitely kill him without hesitation.
"I haven't left here since I came in. What about you?" Lin Fei also looked at Xing Chen warily; after all, no one could be trusted here. Who knew if Xing Chen would attack him?
"Xing Chen, let's go quickly!" At this moment, Meng Xiner signaled with her eyes from the side. This was not the time for reminiscing; both of them could be in life-threatening danger at any moment and needed to make every second count.
"Lin Fei, you've helped me before. I'm not someone who repays kindness with malice. Just take care of yourself," Xing Chen fixed his gaze on Lin Fei. After all, Lin Fei had helped him in Radiant City, so he had no intention of killing him.
"I understand!" Lin Fei revealed a faint bitter smile, then raised his hand and slapped his forehead, instantly fainting.
He naturally understood Xing Chen's words. In this situation, Xing Chen absolutely could not let him leave without doing anything, and killing him would weigh heavily on Xing Chen's conscience. Therefore, Lin Fei knocked himself out without needing Xing Chen to take action.
"How is it? Have you found the Teleportation Array?" Xing Chen looked at Meng Xiner. At this moment, he could already sense the presence of Xun Yuhuan and the others rapidly approaching.
"I found it, but it will take some time to activate the Teleportation Array," Meng Xiner nodded. They had located the Teleportation Array, but it required some preparation time to activate.
"I'll go hold them off; you activate the Teleportation Array as quickly as possible!" Xing Chen said thoughtfully before turning to head outside, where Xun Yuhuan and the others were already nearby.
Xing Chen looked at these people with a slight smile, then threw all the remaining Thunderfire Bombs from the Thunderfire Divine Ring out at once.
"Not good, quick dodge!"
Seeing dozens of Thunderfire Bombs coming at once, Azure Wind Phoenix's expression changed drastically as he quickly shouted while evading.
