Martial Master

Qin Chen was overjoyed. "I did it!" He carefully sensed the past; within the Qiankun Transformation Jade Disc, the stone platform was instantly suppressed by the power of the rules from the jade disc, coming to a standstill and quieting down. Qin Chen had no time to observe closely as he reached out to grab Min Wu Sha's storage ring, simultaneously shifting his figure to leave the area.

Suddenly!

Boom! A hand appeared, reaching for Min Wu Sha's storage ring. At the same time, buzzing sounds resonated as formations of light emerged, transforming into a net meant to ensnare Qin Chen. The flickering formation lights radiated a chilling murderous intent, and the terrifying killing aura quickly evolved into a deadly trap, wrapping Qin Chen inside.

"Good courage!" Qin Chen shouted in anger. Who dared to sneak attack him and seize his spoils? "Clang!" The Han Yue Ancient Sword was horizontally positioned before his chest, and an overwhelming sword aura surged forth. The sword aura transformed into a sword formation, with countless beams of sword light rapidly converging into a colossal sword extending a hundred feet long, rumbling downwards with force.

Bang! Bang! The sword light giant sword slashed through, collapsing everything in its path. The deadly trap created by the formations trembled violently, and amidst the explosive sounds, the sword light giant sword struck fiercely against that hand, creating sparks that flew everywhere. The clash of sword aura against the hand produced a piercing grinding sound, and the ensuing explosions echoed endlessly. Soon, countless sword auras and the enormous hand simultaneously erupted, vanishing into oblivion.

"Retract!" Qin Chen shouted sternly, putting away the storage ring. Only then did he gaze forward, where a figure stood arrogantly in the void. It was Xu Hantian, the Lord of the Earth Array Pavilion of Tianlei City.

"What?" Xu Hantian was astonished, looking solemnly at Qin Chen. He saw Qin Chen alone here, and aimed to kill him, but who would have thought that Qin Chen managed to block his deadly trap? This young man possessed such terrifying strength?

"Lord Xu Hantian, are you trying to kill this Young Master?" Qin Chen's eyes glinted with a cold light, radiating killing intent. Xu Hantian actually plotted against him, evoking endless fury within Qin Chen.

"Hmph! You killed Wei Ziyang from my Earth Array Pavilion. Today, this Lord will avenge him." Xu Hantian said coldly, "However..." He changed his tone, "In consideration of the heavens' benevolence, if you can present the treasures you obtained earlier as an offering for Wei Ziyang, I might consider sparing your life."

Xu Hantian looked down from a great height, his gaze revealing a greedy glint. He had heard from an escaping expert that Qin Chen had obtained what seemed to be a holy crystal within this side hall, instantly igniting his greed. As for avenging Wei Ziyang, it was just a pretext.

Qin Chen couldn't help but smirk in mockery; after all this, this guy was just after the holy crystal on him. Was he that confident? Holding the Han Yue Ancient Sword in his hand, Qin Chen swung it, too lazy to waste breath with the other party.

"Since that's the case, don't blame this Lord for being rude." Xu Hantian revealed a cruel smile, and with a cold snort, his right hand raised, causing numerous formation flags to sweep out from his hand. As these flags fell into the void, the killing intent in the great hall intensified, and the light of the murderous formations began to spin.

Boom! Countless killing auras slashed towards Qin Chen from all directions, enveloping all the space around him, leaving no gaps. The Earthly Killing Formation! This was Xu Hantian's most adept killing formation, which he had retrieved from an ancient relic and later restored and developed himself.

With this formation, he didn’t know how many experts he had killed; once the formation was complete, even peak Martial Gods would find it hard to escape, allowing him to toy with them at will. Thus, although Xu Hantian was not the strongest among the leaders of the six major forces of Tianlei City, with his formation mastery, he occupied a place that nobody dared to underestimate.
