At this moment, the black-clothed man was filled with terror in his heart. He never expected to encounter such a formidable opponent here.
In his panic, the black-clothed man could only madly place his heavy sword in front of him. The next moment, Qin Chen's whip leg struck him fiercely.
The void shattered with a loud bang, and the heavy sword, like a mountain, let out a violent tremor and emitted a shocking sword qi that suddenly surged through the heavy sword and transmitted directly into the body of the black-clothed man.
"Killing intent sword technique!" Qin Chen suddenly unleashed the killing intent power within him.
"Puff!" Blood erupted like a heavenly waterfall. The black-clothed man's body was instantly shattered, and blood and flesh rained down, filling the air.
With a buzz, Qin Chen reached out and grasped the heavy sword directly in his hand, then his figure flickered and landed on the ground.
Boom!
Immediately after, Qin Chen raised his hand, and the rolling primordial power from the black-clothed man's body was absorbed into the Chaotic World, vanishing completely.
The primordial power within the black-clothed man contained the strength of the cosmic sea. Although his cultivation was not strong, it was still a great supplement for Qin Chen at this moment. After doing all this, Qin Chen's attention fell on the heavy sword in his hand. He had to admit that this heavy sword was quite good, containing incredible power, and was a half-step transcendent treasure weapon. While it was far inferior to the Mysterious Rusty Sword, it was best not to use such divine weapons like the Mysterious Rusty Sword if possible. Now, with this heavy sword, Qin Chen essentially had a handy weapon for the time being.
"Not bad."
Qin Chen nodded in satisfaction and stored the heavy sword away. Then he raised his hand, and the spatial treasures of the white-clothed man and the black-clothed man had fallen into his possession.
When his consciousness swept through the spatial treasures of the two men, Qin Chen was instantly shocked. Within the treasures, there were stacks of Cosmic Crystals, most of which were the low-grade Cosmic Crystals previously given to him by Fang Mu Ling, with at least several tens of thousands of them. Additionally, there were some crystals clearly above the low-grade Cosmic Crystals, numbering only a few hundred, but the aura emitted by these hundreds of Cosmic Crystals was not much weaker than that of the tens of thousands of low-grade Cosmic Crystals.
Qin Chen instantly realized that these must be high-grade Cosmic Crystals, very likely middle-grade Cosmic Crystals.
Qin Chen felt an immense joy in his heart. With these middle-grade Cosmic Crystals, his cultivation could likely stabilize completely in a short period of time, and then he would have no fear of the strong in the cosmic sea.
Moreover, there were some elixirs and spiritual herbs among the spatial treasures of these two men, but Qin Chen didn’t recognize them for now.
While Qin Chen was filled with joy, Fang Mu Ling, who was hanging above the Ancient Plain with her spiritual whip in hand, was completely stunned, staring at Qin Chen in disbelief.
What just happened?
How did both of them fall in the blink of an eye?
"You..." Fang Mu Ling stared blankly at Qin Chen.
"What's wrong?" Qin Chen looked at her in confusion.
"These two guys..."
"You mean them? They probably underestimated me and I seized the opportunity to ambush and kill them. Our luck was just too good earlier. If they hadn’t been careless, I might have already been killed by them." Qin Chen said, appearing somewhat shaken.
Fang Mu Ling: "..."
Could you be any more fake? With that effortless manner in which you killed them, how could they kill you?
"By the way, how did you know they were a team?" Qin Chen frowned and asked.
Actually, he sensed something was off with the two from the very beginning but didn’t have the time to warn her. He didn’t expect Fang Mu Ling to have recognized it herself.
Fang Mu Ling came back to her senses, put away her treasure, and disdainfully said, "Who told that guy to say he was from the Abyssal Manor? To impersonate someone from the Abyssal Manor in front of me, what a fool! Did he really think I was so easy to deceive? He even tried to rob me; he must have the guts of a bear and the heart of a leopard."
