Martial Master

Whoosh!

He shot up into the sky, trying to escape this place.

"Want to leave? Have you asked this seat first? Hehe!"

The skeleton helmsman laughed maniacally, swinging his blood-colored war spear. A blood-black sky enveloped the area, sealing the valley tightly, while a white bone whip lashed towards the eagle-eyed middle-aged man.

"Shadow Escape Technique!"

Just as the white bone whip was about to ensnare the eagle-eyed middle-aged man, he suddenly roared, and with a hum, a figure burst forth from his body, moving forward instead of retreating, charging directly at Qin Chen below.

Pfft!

The skeleton helmsman twisted the white bone whip, and the ensnared figure exploded into fragments—revealing it to be a true essence clone.

"Eh, this kid actually has such means." The skeleton helmsman was momentarily stunned, then furiously swung his bone whip, turning to attack the eagle-eyed middle-aged man. "Hmph!" The eagle-eyed middle-aged man sneered. Now that he had charged out, how could he allow the skeleton helmsman to ensnare him again? He disregarded everything and charged straight towards Qin Chen. Boom! The white bone whip shattered the void, and a white light lit up on him, withstanding most of the impact, yet he still coughed up a mouthful of blood.

But his eyes were brighter than ever, focused only on Qin Chen and You Qianxue, for he knew that as long as he captured these two, he would win this battle and turn the tide.

"Want to touch our boss? Have you asked us first?" Little Ant and Little Fire were furious, transforming into a dark cloud to block the way. The eagle-eyed middle-aged man's gaze turned colder. Boom! He suddenly unleashed a blinding golden light from the golden gong in his hand. Pfft! He spat out a mouthful of essence blood onto it, turning it into an eerie rune that instantly doubled the power of the golden gong, forcefully slicing through the air.

Boom!

A vast expanse of golden light erupted, and the immense shockwave swept through, sending numerous devouring ants and fire refining insects flying, revealing a clear path.

"Kill!"

The eagle-eyed middle-aged man radiated a chilling aura as his essence blood burned fiercely within him. His eyes turned blood-red, and he charged through the path opened by the golden gong, arriving right in front of Qin Chen in an instant, launching a furious punch.

"Boom!"

The heavens and earth trembled; the terrifying force of the punch descended like a colossal mountain, stirring the nine heavens and ten earths. The eagle-eyed middle-aged man's target was singular: to slay Qin Chen and capture You Qianxue, using them as leverage to escape.

"Chen Shao!" You Qianxue was alarmed, her expression suddenly turning cold as she prepared to intercept Qin Chen with her sword.

"No need!" Qin Chen reached out, pulling her into his embrace while coldly watching the aggressively attacking eagle-eyed middle-aged man, a hint of mockery flickering in his eyes.

For some reason, at this moment, the eagle-eyed middle-aged man felt a surge of panic deep within him.

Because Qin Chen, under his reckless and powerful assault, showed no signs of fear whatsoever—his gaze was filled with derision, as if he were mocking him. Meanwhile, the cloaked figure pursuing from behind also seemed unfazed.

What does this kid rely on?

The man before him was clearly just a pinnacle early-stage Martial Emperor, yet at this moment, an inexplicable dread filled the eagle-eyed middle-aged man's heart, as if he had made an extremely foolish mistake.

He had a vague feeling that he had done something wrong.

But now, he could no longer afford to think about that; it was either Qin Chen's death or his own.

Boom!

An overwhelming attack came crashing down.

"Soul Destruction Power!"

Just as his attack was about to strike Qin Chen, suddenly, Qin Chen lifted his head.

A pair of cold, emotionless cyan eyes suddenly locked onto the eagle-eyed middle-aged man's, resembling the eyes of death—cold and devoid of light, instantly shattering the man's resolve.

Buzz!
