Chapter 164: Chiyang Sect Leader, Asking for Punishment

Chen Xian walked forward and touched the dead body for a while.

Apart from the sword, the deceased had only twenty taels of silver, more than ten taels of broken silver, and a token on his body.

There was only one word on the token: Kill.

On the back is a pattern of two swords holding a skull.

"Killer?"

Chen Xian muttered to himself, took away the killer's sword, silver and token, put them in his storage ring, then stood up and left.

Soon, seven monsters rushed over and started to bite the killer's body.

However, when the seven monsters were biting each other, an extremely strong sword light suddenly fell from the sky and slashed towards the seven monsters.

Roar…!
Ouch!

The seven monsters are all very powerful. Although they have not transformed, they all have the strength of the late Spirit Infant stage or above.

The next moment, he was killed by the sword light.

Ten miles away, a demon beast of the Great Demon Lord level was about to come over. When it saw the armored boy turning around with a knife in hand, it roared, "Despicable human, come here if you dare...!"

Before he could finish his words, the bear-like beast turned around and ran away.

In the blink of an eye, he escaped fifty miles away.

"Don't run away if you dare!" Chen Xian chased the bear with a knife.

"Whoever runs away is a bear. Come here if you dare?..." The bear-like monster roared and fled wildly without any pause.

Chen Xian chased for hundreds of miles and then stopped.

This bear is considered to be a relatively powerful monster within a radius of 300 miles, equivalent to the second or third level of Tiangang of the human race.

He had previously killed a black viper in a cave and was seen by this bear.

He picked up a knife to kill the bear, but the bear didn't even fight back and just ran away.

Although this bear is stronger than the black viper, it is extremely timid.

After hunting some monsters in the surrounding area, Chen Xian returned to the cave.

[Experience: 22446 points]

After taking a look at the experience on the panel, he continued to condense his wild power.

He left only after he had condensed his skills to 255 acupoints.

The feeling of being watched from behind when he left was still there. On the way back, he did not meet the three people from the Red Sun Sword Sect.

After leaving the Black Abyss, Chen Xian went to the Demon Ape Territory and captured a Demon Ape to ask about the Demon Ape King's son. Only then did he know that the Demon Ape King's son was called Sarutobi.

The demon ape said that their Sarutobi clan leader had left the territory for two months and had not returned yet.

Chen Xian calculated the time and found that it matched the time when he saw Sarutobi enter the Black Abyss, which meant that Sarutobi never came out after entering the abyss that time.

But he had been going in and out of the Black Abyss during the day recently and had not encountered Sarutobi.

However, the three people from the Chiyang Sword Sect encountered him, which made him feel very strange.

It is said that he and Sarutobi had a grudge for killing their parents, so he appeared in the Black Abyss. Even if Sarutobi couldn't beat him, he would show his face and bare his teeth at him, but he was never seen.

On the third day of March, the demon camp began to attack the human camp.

Chen Xian sat cross-legged in the tent watching the battle and found that there were not many demons, about three thousand at a time, and it was just a harassment attack. He believed that the demons were testing the human demon-suppressing soldiers.

A faint blood mist was floating in the air at the three battlefields: the Blood River Forest, the Black Wind Gorge, and the Hutou Mountain.

Chen Xian did not step forward, nor did he ask Li Fei, Mu Feng and others to go and help.

Ten thousand demon-suppressing soldiers in three camps are enough to deal with three thousand demons. Tang Can, Yan Cheng and Pei Menglong don't even need to take action.

Wang Chanming, Wu Enhou, Nangong Yan, Tong Linsheng, Du Chunyi, Zhang Han, Cheng Feng and others are enough to shock people.

Chen Xian took half a day off and went into the Black Abyss to condense his wild power for two hours. His acupoints reached 263, and the number of new acupoints increased to 24.

However, on the way back, he stopped at a place.

Within the range of the spiritual eye, a corpse was hanging on a tree that was so big that two people could hug it.

He leapt towards the corpse, and when he got closer he could clearly see that the corpse was none other than the male disciple of the Chiyang Sword Sect whose arm he had cut off the day before.

The male disciple's death looked horrifying, with black lines like tree roots appearing on his skin, covering his entire body.

The key point is that the whole body appears dry, and all the vitality seems to have been sucked away by some evil thing.

His eyes were rolled up, and his eyeballs were full of black bloodshot, which looked very creepy.

Chen Xian did not move the corpse. He stood aside and watched quietly for a while. He opened his spiritual eyes and looked around for a hundred miles. Apart from some monsters, he did not see anything else suspicious.

However, what is strange is that the monsters do not eat the corpse hanging on the tree.

Can not you see?

Not likely.

After waiting for a while, Chen Xian still didn't find anything suspicious. He didn't touch the corpse and turned around and left.

A cold wind blew.

The corpse hanging on the tree began to sway slowly.

……

The eighth day of March.

Chen Xian successfully condensed the wild power of 360 acupoints, opened up 36 new acupoints, and the remaining 324 were original acupoints.

[Experience: 15398 points]

These days, he was consuming experience while hunting monsters, and after condensing 360 acupoints, he still had so much experience left.

He then began to activate the [Huang Ding Sutra] to open up the meridians between the new acupoints.

What he consumed was experience points. During this process, 360 acupoints condensed wild energy at the same time, which consumed a lot of experience.

The process of opening up the meridians between the key acupoints is very difficult. With his current strong physique, it is very difficult to open them. It took 3566 experience points to open them.

In an instant, the [Huang Ding Sutra] started to operate automatically, and began to circulate along the new and old meridians. The ancient golden Huang force was like a prehistoric beast galloping through the meridians, and finally went towards the Jade Sea.

"Is it Yu Hai too?"

Chen Xian was a little surprised. It seemed that cultivating wild power or vital energy required opening up the Jade Sea.

The wild power did not suppress the Tiangang power when it entered the jade sea, but it was not integrated with the six-color Tiangang power and could not suppress the six-color Tiangang power, so it rotated around the jade sea and squeezed the black thunder and golden fire into the middle.

"Hehe...!" Chen Xian chuckled in his heart. He didn't expect that there would be a fight between energies.

After Huang Li entered the Jade Sea, he clearly felt that his body became heavier, which was different from Yuan Qi.

The more your vital energy is condensed, the more relaxed your body will feel. Feeling relaxed does not mean that your physique is not strong enough or your defense is weak.

Instead, the flight speed will increase and the flight altitude will increase.

But at this moment, Chen Xian felt that his body became heavy, at least three times heavier than before. However, as the wild force rolled in his meridians and tempered his flesh and blood, he found that his flesh and blood became denser and his tendons and bones became thicker and stronger.

"five billion!?"

Chen Xian was very surprised. His cultivation level had not improved recently, but since he began to condense his wild power, he found that his combat power was still increasing and now reached 5 billion Ding power.

“In the Tiangang state…!”

Chen Xian couldn't believe it. He had tried the combat power under the Tiangang state before, and it increased to 55 times. Even if the multiple did not increase, the total combat power reached 275 billion Dingli.

"Below the third level of Wanxiang, I am almost invincible, right?!" Chen Xian murmured. He had never fought with a strong man in the Wanxiang realm.

However, he knew that no matter whether it was the Tiangang Realm or the Wanxiang Realm, few people had exactly the same combat power, because the combat power span between each realm was very large.

Different talents mean different combat power.

The combat power will be different due to different cultivation methods.

The combat power varies with the level of technical skills.

Age gap will also affect combat effectiveness.

Therefore, the higher the level of the martial artist, the less likely they are to be evenly matched.

That's why Chen Xian thought that he was invincible below the third level of Wanxiang.

Half an hour later, after the power of Huang Li had circulated three times, Chen Xian finally stopped.

The wild force entering his body made his body tougher and his combat power much stronger, but it was still far from enough for the wild force to condense into a cauldron.

[Experience: 11832 points]

After looking at the experience, Chen Xian did not continue.

[Huang Ding Jing] needs to be practiced, but there is no need to be so anxious. You can proceed step by step.

After leaving the stone cave, he opened his spiritual eyes and saw that all the monsters within a hundred miles had run away. Pouting helplessly, Chen Xian flew towards the outside of the black abyss.

"what!"

In one leap, the explosive power reaches fifty miles, which is obviously twenty miles longer than before, which means an increase in speed of ten thousand meters.

With three times the weight, his speed not only did not slow down, but increased.

"Twenty-five thousand meters in one breath, this speed...!"

Chen Xian was amazed, but unfortunately he couldn't maintain this speed all the time. It could only last for five breaths at most. Then his speed began to drop rapidly, reaching ten thousand meters per breath. This was his steady flying speed in the void.

"Haven't seen you?"

When passing by the tree, Chen Xian discovered that the body of the male disciple of the Chiyang Sword Sect was gone, but when he arrived he clearly saw it still hanging on the tree.

"Damn, are you trying to scare me?" Chen Xian raised his eyebrows and swung his sword to chop down the tree that was so thick that two people could hug it.

There was a loud bang, and the surrounding monsters were startled.

When they looked up and saw that it was Chen Xian, they screamed and ran away in all directions.

March 9th.

Bao Guanlong came to the camp to find Chen Xian for a drink.

"General Bao, long time no see!"

"Yeah, you kid just focus on practicing and don't even bother to visit my camp." Bao Guanlong shook his head speechlessly.

Chen Xian asked Mu Feng to bring wine and meat, and he and Bao Guanlong sat in the tent, eating and chatting.

Now that both of them are generals, Chen Xian doesn't have so many concerns and chats and drinks with Bao Guanlong openly.

"I heard from Zhang Chunyuan that you beat the Fourth Prince?"

Chen Xian nodded: "What happened last month, he withheld the salaries and training resources of my soldiers, who should I fight if not him?"

Bao Guanlong nodded: "This is indeed something that should not have been done. He can target you personally, but he cannot target the 30,000 demon-suppressing soldiers under your command."

Chen Xian did not continue the topic. Thinking of the lieutenant general under Bao Guanlong, he could not help but describe him and asked, "What's his name?"

"Zeng Liang." Bao Guanlong said.

Chen Xian nodded. Zeng Liang's name was on the document, but he didn't know the other two lieutenant generals under Bao Guanlong, so he couldn't tell the three apart.

"Is Zeng Liang also from Bafu?" he asked.

"That's right, but he was trained by the Zeng family, not a real member of the Zeng family. His surname was given by the Zeng family, and it is unclear what his original name was." Bao Guanlong said.

Chen Xian was surprised: "You know all this?"

Bao Guanlong said: "There are not many people from the Eight Prefectures in the Demon-Suppressing Pass. I am at the third level of the Heavenly Gang Realm, and I have been a general for five years. I also often go to the pass, so I know a little more."

Chen Xian nodded: "I think Zeng Liang is not a simple person, he has hidden his cultivation strength."

Bao Guanlong seemed to want to say something, and after hesitating for a moment, he smiled and said, "He did hide his cultivation strength. His true cultivation is unknown, and he is relatively low-key in the military camp. Before coming to the Fifth Army to suppress the demons, he had been serving as a captain in the Black Dragon Army in Guannei with Zeng Xiu."

"The Black Dragon Army?" Chen Xian murmured.

Xiahou Yu appointed Zeng Liang as the lieutenant general of the sixth battalion of the fifth army to suppress demons, commanding 10,000 demon-suppressing soldiers, whose cultivation was definitely not lower than the Spirit Infant Realm.

That day in the main camp's central tent, Zeng Liang looked at him with eyes clearly filled with hostility. Although it was very subtle, he still noticed it.

He did not tell Bao Guanlong about this matter. Instead, he changed the subject and asked Bao Guanlong if there was anything wrong that he came to see him in person.
"Indeed, there is something wrong, but it's not me who has something wrong, it's you." After Bao Guanlong glanced around, he lowered his voice and said to Chen Xian.

Chen Xian frowned and said, "I'm fine!"

Bao Guanlong said: "Let me ask you, did you provoke anyone from the Red Sun Sword Sect?"

Chen Xian was slightly stunned: "It's not considered provoking, I have met them before."

Bao Guanlong was speechless: "Why don't you tell me the truth? You killed his disciples, and they have complained to the Grand Marshal."

"Who told you that?" Chen Xian said expressionlessly.

During this period of time, he was either paying attention to the situation of the monsters or going to the Black Abyss to condense his wild power.

The male disciple of the Chiyang Sword Sect died on the third day of March. He was found hanged on a tree in the Black Abyss, which happened to be not far from the route he took to leave the Black Abyss.

Today is the ninth day of March, but when he came back yesterday evening, the male disciple's body was gone.

It just disappeared in the past six or seven days.

Could it be that someone from the Chiyang Sword Sect took the body away?
"Don't worry about it. As soon as the news reached me, I rushed over immediately." Bao Guanlong said, "Is this true?"

"No!" Chen Xian shook his head. He didn't know who killed the disciple of Chiyang Sword Sect.

"It's good that it's not you!" Bao Guanlong said, "It won't be long before the Grand Marshal will send someone to invite you to pass through the border."

"Thank you for telling me, General!" Chen Xian nodded.

really.

After Bao Guanlong told him the news, someone came the next day to invite Chen Xian to go to Zhenyao Pass. It was Zhou Yuan, the Tiangang realm follower beside the Grand Marshal.

On the way, Chen Xian pretended to know nothing and asked Marshal Zhou Yuan why he was invited to enter the pass.

Zhou Yuan didn't elaborate, only saying that the matter was a bit serious.

Demon Town Pass.

Chen Xian is no longer a stranger.

When they arrived again, there was no camp outside the pass, only the Black Dragon Army guarding the gate.

Chen Xian followed Zhou Yuan and went directly to the Marshal's Mansion where the Grand Marshal was after entering the customs.

The Marshal's Mansion is located in the central urban area of ​​Zhenyao Pass. The mansion covers a large area, but there are not many people defending it.

"Chen Xian?"

As soon as he entered the mansion, Chen Xian met Xiahou Feng.

Xiahou Feng was wearing golden armor and had a Xuanlong sword hanging from his waist. His armor was the same as Chen Xian's, and he had obviously been promoted to general.

Chen Xian stepped forward and greeted Xiahou Feng.

Xiahou Feng glanced at Zhou Yuan and whispered, "Did you kill someone from the Chiyang Sword Sect?"

Chen Xian shook his head: "No, I just saw it."

Xiahou Feng looked strange, "Aren't you staying in the military camp? How did you meet someone from the Red Sun Sword Sect?"

Chen Xian didn't say much, but asked, "Is the Chiyang Sword Sect very powerful?"

Xiahou Feng said: "It's not that powerful, but it is also a first-class sect in the Daning Dynasty. There are powerful people in the Wanxiang Realm in the sect."

"A first-rate sect?"

Chen Xian's eyes flickered slightly. A first-rate sect is considered quite powerful.

Zhou Yuan led the way, while the two chatted behind.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the meeting hall of the Marshal's Mansion.

In the main hall, there is a plaque hanging right in front: Strive to be the best.

The handwriting is vigorous and flamboyant.

Sitting on the throne below the plaque was Xiahou Yu.

On the left side sat Xiong Baishan and Yuwen Pei, and on the right side sat an old man in a sword robe, but that old man was not Yu Xuansong.

Chen Xian didn't know the old man. There were three people beside him, a middle-aged man and two young men.

Chen Xian had seen the female disciple among the young people. She was the female disciple who had trained with Yu Xuansong in the Black Abyss before. He didn't know her name.

Then, there was a corpse lying on the ground. It was the corpse of the male disciple with the broken arm. The corpse was dry and covered with black root-like lines. It looked very scary.

"Greetings to the Grand Marshal and the two generals!" Chen Xian and the other two stepped forward and saluted.

Xiahou Yu waved his hand at Zhou Yuan and Xiahou Feng with a serious expression, then stepped aside and stood quietly.

At this time, the female disciple jumped out and pointed at Chen Xian and shouted, "Master, it was him. He killed my master, brother."

As she spoke, the woman rushed to Chen Xian and angrily questioned, "That day, you cut off my senior brother's arm in the Black Abyss, and my master mercifully spared your life. Why did you sneak attack my master and kill my senior brother?"

"Girl, are you sure that it was me who ambushed your master and killed your senior brother?" Chen Xian frowned slightly.

After the fight with Yu Xuansong that day, he never saw Yu Xuansong again.

Later, he killed a black-clad assassin who had reached the seventh level of Tiangang cultivation.

"Black Abyss?"

Xiahou Feng on the side was slightly surprised. Why did Chen Xian go to the Black Abyss for no reason?
Suddenly, he blinked and understood.

Chen Xian won the first place in the Demon-Suppressing Competition. His choice was [Wild Cauldron Sutra]. If he wanted to practice the Wild Cauldron Sutra, he could only go to the Black Abyss to condense the wild power.

Besides, Chen Xian wouldn't be so bored as to run into the abyss.

After all, that place is a restricted area. Although the outer area is not very dangerous for the Tiangang Realm, it is hard to say about the danger deep into the Tiangang Realm.

"It's you. Same golden armor, Black Dragon Sword, same face. I can recognize you even if you turn into ashes." The female disciple pointed at Chen Xian's nose and said angrily.

Chen Xian did not respond but looked at Xiahou Yu.

Xiahou Yu said in a deep voice: "Chen Xian, this is Chiyang Sword Sect's leader Chiyangzi. He said that you killed his three elders and disciples. Is this true?"

"Absolutely not!" Chen Xian shook his head, looked at the solemn-looking old man in the sword robe and said, "Mr. Chi Yangzi, have you ever seen me kill the three elders and disciples of your sect?"

Chi Yangzi didn't say anything. How could he have seen him if he hadn't been to Heiyuan? He didn't even know Chen Xian before.

Just now, the female disciple pointed at Chen Xian and said that it was Chen Xian who killed Junior Brother Yu Xuansong. He was also surprised.

Although the female disciple had told him about Chen Xian's situation when they came, that he was a young-looking demon-suppressing general, Chi Yangzi did not expect that Chen Xian would be a teenager.

He stared at Chen Xian's weathered eyes, but couldn't see anything after looking carefully. In addition, he didn't understand Chen Xian's cultivation strength.

"Is it hidden so deeply?" Chi Yangzi murmured in his heart.

Judging from Chen Xian’s deep and weathered eyes, he is definitely not eighteen or nineteen years old.

After all, a person who is only eighteen or nineteen years old has only experienced so many years of hardships, it is impossible for him to have eyes that look mature.

Only after experiencing hundreds of years of erosion by feng shui could such extremely weathered eyes be formed.

But it seems unlikely that the Chen Xian in front of him is over a hundred years old.

Chi Yangzi couldn't tell, so he stopped considering Chen Xian's age. He stared at Chen Xian with a frown and said, "General Chen, I want to ask you, have you been to Heiyuan recently?"
