Death Grip
Qi Gaojie swung his sword as if to destroy the earth, the immense force instantly rendering Xing Chen unable to move.
“Thunderfire Divine Ring, Thunderfire Dragon Soul!”
Xing Chen activated the power of the Thunderfire Divine Ring, and in an instant, it radiated brilliant light, unleashing a terrifying, violent, and scorching Thunderfire Power that surged forth.
Amidst the endless thunder and fire, a Thunderfire Dragon Soul let out a long roar, shaking the heavens.
The astonishing Sword Light from Qi Gaojie struck the Thunderfire Dragon Soul surrounded by endless thunder and fire, causing no damage whatsoever, as if it had sunk into the ocean without a trace.
“How is this possible? This power could even challenge a strong individual from Gaze of Fate. How could he possess such strength?” The disbelief on Qi Gaojie's face was evident; the power unleashed by the Thunderfire Dragon Soul was definitely no less than a strike from a Peak Expert of the Fate-Observing Realm. In the current Eastern Region, no one could withstand this blow and survive!
At this moment, the Purple Dragon Soul in the sky surged with raging thunder and fire, emanating a scorching aura that made Qi Gaojie feel as if he were facing a formidable beast.
“What... what kind of power is this? How can it be so strong?”
Just then, Qian Hongkai, who had been knocked back by Qi Gaojie, looked up in shock at the massive Thunderfire Dragon Soul in the sky.
This power was undoubtedly the strongest he had ever witnessed in his life—without exception, it was the strongest.
“Go!”
Xing Chen pointed at the Thunderfire Dragon Soul, which immediately let out a roar, releasing a Thunder Dragon's Roar, then charged toward Qi Gaojie with boundless Thunderfire Power.
Countless thunders rolled in, and an endless Fire Sea surged forward. The Thunderfire Dragon Soul almost reached Qi Gaojie in the blink of an eye. Feeling the violent heat of the endless thunder and fire, Qi Gaojie gritted his teeth slightly as a layer of fiery red light suddenly burst forth to envelop him.
With a loud 'boom', the power of the Thunderfire Dragon Soul, capable of killing a Soul-Searching Realm Expert, collided with Qi Gaojie, instantly creating a purple-red storm that swept through, leaving no place intact for hundreds of miles around.
“Run!”
Xing Chen's figure moved and instantly disappeared. At this moment, he had no time to care about Qi Gaojie's fate; whether he was dead or alive, he had to leave this place as soon as possible. Such a massive disturbance would surely attract countless people.
As Xing Chen vanished, Qian Hongkai also disappeared without a trace. The two of them seemed to have vanished at the same time, while the scene remained filled with raging thunder and fire, the endless Thunderfire Power showing no signs of weakening as it continuously spread outward.
"What kind of power is this? It's so powerful!"
"This is the power of the Thunderfire Deity; it must be the residual power left by the Thunderfire Deity."
"He really obtained the Thunderfire Deity's Inheritance."
Those searching for Xing Chen in the Lingyun Mountain Range all witnessed that terrifying Thunder Dragon, a strike that now surged with endless thunder and fire.
"Ah—"
After a while, as the thunder and fire dissipated, a furious roar suddenly erupted, echoing throughout the entire Lingyun Mountain Range.
"Xing Chen, just you wait; I will not let you go... I will not let you go..."
This roar shot up towards the Nine Heavens, continuously reverberating among the surrounding mountains. This person was naturally Qi Gaojie, who had endured Xing Chen's full-force strike from the Thunderfire Dragon Soul.
Under the blow from the Thunderfire Dragon Soul, which could rival peak Fate Observation Realm experts, this person surprisingly did not die. Though he was in a sorry state and spitting blood, he ultimately survived.
"Puff..."
At this moment, Qi Gaojie spat out another mouthful of blood, his entire body swaying unsteadily while fear gripped his heart.
That last strike was truly terrifying. If he hadn't used a life-saving item obtained from the Crimson Flame Deity's Inheritance at a critical moment, he would have probably died countless times by now.
The Crimson Flame Deity was a Soul-Searching Realm Expert who appeared before the Thunderfire Deity and possessed strength that also reached the Peak of Fate Observation Realm. Qi Gaojie had received this person's Inheritance.
Just now, the reason he was able to save his life was because of a piece of Crimson Flame Divine Jade left by the Crimson Flame Deity. This Crimson Flame Divine Jade could withstand a strike from a Peak Expert of the Fate-Observing Realm. However, this item was one-time use only, unlike Xing Chen's Thunderfire Divine Ring.
As long as Xing Chen continued to gather enough power, he could unleash powerful attacks again with the Thunderfire Divine Ring, while Qi Gaojie’s Crimson Flame Divine Jade could only be used once; after that, it would be rendered useless.
It was precisely because of this that Qi Gaojie felt such anger. His last life-saving trump card had been forced out like this. At this moment, the hatred he felt for Xing Chen was like an endless river, surging uncontrollably like the overflowing Yellow River.
“Xing Chen... Xing Chen... If I, Qi Gaojie, do not kill you, I swear I will not be human—”
Qi Gaojie let out another long howl, filled with grief and indignation. This pursuit of Xing Chen had truly cost him dearly; not only had he failed to capture Xing Chen, but he had also used up his life-saving trump card. Thinking of this, Qi Gaojie was filled with resentment with no place to vent.
“Oh, isn’t this Brother Qi? What happened to you?” Suddenly, a somewhat mocking voice slowly came from afar.
“Do we even need to ask? Just look at Brother Qi’s appearance; it’s clear he must have suffered at the hands of Xing Chen.” Before Qi Gaojie could respond, another voice chimed in.
“Zhen Hanhe, Xun Yuhuan, you two should stop gloating over my misfortune. If you’re here to help catch him, I welcome you. But if you’re just here to mock me, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Qi Gaojie’s expression darkened as he glared coldly at the two who had arrived.
These two were naturally Zhen Hanhe, the top talent of Guangyang Prefecture, and Crown Prince Xun Yuhuan. Over the past month, both of them had made significant progress.
At this time, Zhen Hanhe had already become a Yang Spirit Realm expert, while Xun Yuhuan had also reached Half-Step Yang Spirit Realm. However, with an Earth Grade Divine Weapon in hand, he was not weaker than an ordinary Yang Spirit Realm expert.
“Hehe, we are naturally here to help,” Zhen Hanhe said with a smile as he slowly approached Qi Gaojie and asked, “I wonder if Brother Qi has discovered anything about his capabilities after your encounter? To what extent can his strength reach? Please enlighten me.”
Xun Yuhuan also showed interest at this moment. After all, more than a month had passed and no one knew what level Xing Chen's strength had reached. Only Qi Gaojie, who had just fought him, would have some understanding.
However, seeing Qi Gaojie’s miserable state, the two could almost imagine what level Xing Chen was at now; his true combat power was definitely not lower than that of an ordinary Yang Spirit Realm expert. This was the judgment Zhen Hanhe and Xun Yuhuan made regarding Xing Chen's current strength in their hearts.
“His strength is not weaker than that of a Yang Spirit Realm expert. However, he is not my opponent. If it weren’t for him obtaining the Thunderfire Deity’s treasure, he would absolutely not have been able to escape from me.”
Qi Gaojie, with a gloomy expression, pondered for a moment before speaking.
"It seems this person is becoming increasingly troublesome. We must eliminate him as soon as possible; otherwise, he will become a major threat in the future." Xun Yuhuan and Zhen Hanhe exchanged glances, both seeing the killing intent in each other's eyes.
When they first encountered Xing Chen, he was merely comparable to someone from the Soul Realm. They never expected that in such a short time, he would grow to such an extent that he could withstand the best of the Sword Sect.
Moreover, the most important point is that this person is not from the Sword Kingdom but from the Sun Kingdom, specifically the Closed-Door Disciple of Yun Qing, the leader of the largest gang in the Sun Kingdom. For this reason alone, Qi Gaojie and Zhen Hanhe felt they must eradicate Xing Chen.
"Killing him is essential; the key is where he has escaped to now," Xun Yuhuan said as he scanned the surroundings slowly.
At this moment, the most crucial thing was to find him first; otherwise, they wouldn't even have the chance to kill him.
"He should have run south. From his appearance, it seems he intends to cross the entire Lingyun Mountain Range."
Qi Gaojie looked into the distance, his eyes flashing with cold light.
"Crossing the Lingyun Mountain Range... He can't be going to that place, can he?"
Zhen Hanhe's eyes revealed a hint of fear. The "that place" he referred to was Sword Mound. If Xing Chen truly entered there, they would absolutely dare not continue their pursuit.
"Even if he goes there, I will capture him alive. Once he arrives, he will only be wandering around the outskirts at most. As long as he doesn't dare to enter the true core area, we can kill him!"
Qi Gaojie showed a fierce expression; his hatred for Xing Chen ran deep. Even if Xing Chen really escaped to Sword Mound, he would definitely pursue him inside.
"Stop wasting time here; let's chase after him quickly. Otherwise, if he runs too far away, we won't be able to catch up," Xun Yuhuan said at this moment.
At least half an hour had already passed; Xing Chen had long since disappeared. If these few continued to delay, they might truly lose track of Xing Chen.
"Let's go!"
Qi Gaojie nodded, and several people simultaneously flashed away, disappearing from their original spot, chasing after Xing Chen's direction.
At this moment, Xing Chen had already escaped quite far, and beside him was Qian Hongkai, who was of course forced to follow him, not willingly.
"At our current speed, how long until we reach Sword Mound?" Xing Chen glanced at Qian Hongkai and asked.
"At least two hours."
Qian Hongkai pondered for a moment before replying.
"Two?"
Xing Chen frowned. He had no confidence that they wouldn't be caught in two hours. Once they were caught, regardless of who it was, they would definitely have to fight first. There was a chance that during this process, some powerful beings from the Yang Spirit Realm would also be attracted. If that happened, he might not even reach Sword Mound before dying here.
"This is already the fastest speed possible; there's no way to go any faster."
As if sensing Xing Chen's concerns, Qian Hongkai spoke with a hint of bitterness.
"I understand. It seems we'll have to outsmart them," Xing Chen nodded, his gaze flickering slightly.
