Martial Master

The formation master mentioned the Spatial Pool, and Long Xiucheng's mouth dropped open, unable to close. He was instantly filled with immense joy, and his reaction was even quicker than that of the mid-level peak Martial Emperor. He immediately focused his gaze on Qin Chen, demanding, "Tell me, did you take these Spatial Crystals?"

"Lord Long Xiucheng, where there are Spatial Pools, there must be Spatial Crystals. It seems there are definitely plenty of Spatial Crystals inside here."

"Kid, tell me, where did you put the Spatial Crystals? Hurry up and take them out and give them to Lord Long Xiucheng! And the Seven-Colored Spirit Fruit you obtained earlier, bring that out too. Do I need to remind you?"

The eyes of the three instantly became fiery, fixed on Qin Chen as if they were staring at a huge piece of succulent meat.

That mid-level peak Martial Emperor sneered coldly, walking in front of Qin Chen and arrogantly saying, back in the valley, they had to listen to a young boy like Qin Chen for the distribution of treasures, and he had been displeased for a long time.

However, at that time, his strength was not enough to deal with Qin Chen, so he could only swallow his anger. Now that he was with Long Xiucheng, he naturally felt emboldened to show off.

He did not consider that the ancient Martial Emperor from the Xuanyuan Empire had also been present at that time and had even chased after Qin Chen. Now that Qin Chen was standing here unharmed, why would he fear a late-stage Martial Emperor?

Or perhaps it wasn't that he hadn't thought of it; rather, the temptation of the Seven-Colored Spirit Fruit and Spatial Crystals had clouded his reason.

"Where did you hide them?" Qin Chen scoffed. He couldn't be bothered to waste words with such a person. The mysterious rusty sword immediately struck out, and a black sword rainbow instantly filled the entire heavens and earth, crashing down like a heavenly sword aimed directly at the mid-level peak Martial Emperor.

Wasn't he just coveting the treasures on him? If they wanted to fight, then let them fight—no need for unnecessary words.

"You’re seeking death."

The Martial Emperor was furious, roaring loudly, but he also knew of Qin Chen's terrifying strength. He hurriedly activated a pitch-black shield, placing it in front of himself, and shouted at the burly man Long Xiucheng, "Lord Long Xiucheng, look! This kid is too arrogant; he doesn’t put you in his eyes at all!"

Before he finished speaking, the sword light that Qin Chen had cleaved down landed on his shield.

"Bang!"

The terrifying sword energy swept through, instantly tearing the shield apart as if it were thin paper, shattering it to pieces. At the same time, endless sword light poured down, completely enveloping the mid-level peak Martial Emperor.

The Martial Emperor was so scared that his soul nearly flew out of his body, his face showing a look of horror. He never expected Qin Chen's strength to be so terrifying. He hurriedly used all his true essence to defend in front of him while frantically retreating, fearfully shouting, "Lord Long Xiucheng, save me..."

Before he could finish the word "me," endless sword light had completely enveloped Qin Chen, and a burst of blood light erupted. When the blood light faded, the mid-level peak Martial Emperor who had just arrogantly questioned Qin Chen had vanished without a trace. All that remained on the hard ground was a deep gash over ten zhang deep and nearly a hundred zhang long.

Qin Chen had effortlessly reduced a mid-level peak Martial Emperor to nothingness, leaving not even a trace of armor or storage ring behind.

The formation master and Long Xiucheng looked in horror at the long sword mark before them, their eyes revealing shock. They exchanged glances and instantly moved closer together, watching Qin Chen with a wary expression.

So terrifying! How could there be such a terrifying genius? He had killed a mid-level peak Martial Emperor with a single sword strike. Even if Long Xiucheng himself had acted, it would not have been so easy, right?
