Chapter 1892 Hunting
?The guards of the Holy Fire Palace were like headless flies, running around in the mountains without any direction. They had no idea of Xiao Chen's specific location, so they could only search with a luck mentality.
In the hidden cave, Xiao Chen, who was practicing, when his condition returned to its peak, quietly left the cave and escaped underground along the cave wall.
The hunting operation officially begins!
The Holy Fire Palace is a force under the control of Yan Kui, and is also the enemy of the Overlord Soul Temple. Since they are enemies, and the Holy Fire Palace still wants to capture Xiao Chen alive, Xiao Chen should at least fight back a little bit.
After leaving the cave, Xiao Chen carefully emerged from the ground and sneaked into the hidden dense forest. He held the dagger in his backhand. The light shone through the gaps in the complicated dense forest, and the dagger shone with a cold luster.
"Hey, do you think Xiao Chen will really be in this mountain range?" A person in a small team asked listlessly, leaning against a big tree lazily.
"No one knows. I searched for him for so long and still didn't see even a single person."
"None of us have seen it. Even if we have seen the portrait, the one who reported the news before does not know whether what he said is true or false. He sent so many people out, but now there is no news at all."
"I guess Xiao Chen ran away a long time ago. Who would be so stupid as to stay and die?"
"Xiao Chen is in the early stage of the Saint King. We are no match for him. Even if we meet him, he will probably kill him before we can even shout. It's best not to be met by us."
The five guards rested lazily on the spot, all with an indifferent attitude. Whether Xiao Chen could find them or not, it seemed to have nothing to do with them.
"You're right. When you meet me, you don't even have a chance to shout." Just as the last guard finished speaking, a faint and eerie voice quietly sounded in their ears, causing the five people's expressions to suddenly change.
A black shadow sprang out from a hidden dense forest somewhere like lightning, and the dagger in his hand flashed with cold light.
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
The five guards' hearts were shocked and their faces were horrified. They had no time to react. Suddenly, their vision went dark and they fell down one after another. There was a blood mark on their necks.
Killed four of them in the blink of an eye, the hunt was successful, clean and tidy!
"Xiao, you are Xiao Chen." The last guard leaning against the big tree was pale at the moment. He looked at Xiao Chen who appeared in front of him like a ghost with great horror, and his whole body was trembling.
The sharp point of the dagger pressed against the guard's neck, and he smiled lightly at the frightened guard.
Xiao Chen said calmly: "Weren't you unsure whether I was here just now? You should be sure now, right?"
"Don't kill me, I'm just following orders." The guard's forehead was covered with sweat. He swallowed hard and begged for mercy in horror, his voice trembling extremely.
"Let me ask you, the Holy Fire Palace seemed to have given up chasing me some time ago, why did it suddenly send so many people again?" Ignoring the guard's begging for mercy, Xiao Chen asked, and moved forward a few steps with the dagger pointed against the guard's neck. point.
Feeling a cold and stinging pain in his neck, the guard's expression changed drastically again, his eyes became even more frightened, and he hurriedly said: "No, no, no, no, I said, I said, two hours ago, a strange person came. Holy Fire Palace, if you are still in this mountain range, the palace owner will order the commander-in-chief to lead us to search for you."
"Weird person? Is it Huang Qi's fault?" Xiao Chen frowned slightly and guessed in his mind that no one except Huang Qi knew that Xiao Chen was still in this mountain range. It was normal for Xiao Chen to doubt him.
In confusion, his eyes glanced at the frightened guards again, and Xiao Chen asked: "Where is your commander-in-chief?"
"That mountain peak in front of you." The horrified guard quickly pointed to the towering mountain peak not far to the right.
Following the direction pointed by the guard, Xiao Chen's gaze also shifted, and the dagger in his hand also moved along with it. When the blood sprayed out, the guard also covered his neck and fell down helplessly.
"Zhao Xingxing is in the early stage of the Saint King, and he is very powerful." Xiao Chen glanced at the towering mountain with a cold gaze, and said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"Master, are you trying to find him?" Seeing Xiao Chen's cold smile, Shenjian was slightly startled and couldn't help but ask.
"Don't worry, let's play with them in the mountains, and don't let them get close to the cave." The smile on his lips became more sinister, and Xiao Chen smiled coldly.
After throwing the body into a nearby ravine, Xiao Chen escaped underground and continued to hunt the next team.
The small teams were hundreds of meters apart, so Xiao Chen was not worried about alerting other small teams after the hunt.
In the quiet mountains, you can always hear some faint dull sounds, and the faint smell of blood gradually spreads in the mountains, and is eventually diluted in the breeze.
A black shadow, like a monkey, shuttled through the dense forest with incredible agility, as fast as lightning, but without making any sound.
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
Somewhere in the mountains, a black shadow appeared like a ghost, with sinister eyes. As the dagger in his hand drew a beautiful arc, blood sprayed out, and several guards fell one after another.
The black shadow stopped, tilted his head slightly, and sneered at the corner of his mouth. This person was Xiao Chen who was hunting the guards of the Holy Fire Palace.
This was the sixth wave of small teams that Xiao Chen had hunted. Just like the previous ones, everyone who came close to the cave was killed with one blow. The guards who died didn't even know what happened.
These little minions under the Holy King will die as many as they come. Even if they encounter the Holy King in his early stage, the fate will be the same.
In the cave, Xiao Chen was refining some medicinal powder. The medicinal powder was green in color and he had refined a lot. There were several jade bottles neatly placed.
"Master, what are you doing refining these medicinal powders?" Shenjian asked in confusion as he looked at Xiao Chen's simple refining of the medicinal prescription.
Hearing this, a joking smile appeared on Xiao Chen's face, and he said with a faint smile: "These medicinal powders may seem ordinary, but they have good effects. They can suppress the power of the Holy Yuan. Inhaling these medicinal powders will form a force that is absorbed into the body. If the meridians are blocked, the driving force will naturally become much weaker."
"Master plans to use these powders to deal with the Holy Fire Palace?" Samsara's message asked.
"That's right." He nodded slightly, put the final refined medicine powder into the jade bottle, and then injected a bit of power into the jade bottle, and finally said with a happy smile: "Hey, you're done."
At the top of the majestic mountain peak, a man in black light armor stood on the highest rock, his eyes closed tightly, frowning slightly, and said to himself: "I still can't understand how an early Saint King can do it without alarming everyone. In the case of the elder, he sneaked into a room with a barrier without anyone noticing, and how did he escape from under the eyes of the great elder? Did the Holy King really have such great magical powers in the early stage? "
He sighed softly, shook his head slightly, opened his eyes slightly, and Zhao Xingxing asked doubtfully: "What movement technique is so magical? A mere early Saint King sent so many people, but no trace of Xiao Chen was found, and even I The commander’s consciousness cannot sense the slightest breath.”
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief." A guard quickly flew up from the mountain and said respectfully.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Xingxing asked lightly, tilting his head slightly and glancing at the guard.
The guard said respectfully: "My subordinates found the body of our Holy Fire Palace guard in a ravine. He died just a few hours ago."
"Oh?" The moment he heard this, Zhao Xingxing's face changed slightly. He looked at the guard in surprise and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know who did it?"
"I don't know, but from the wounds, it seems that he died after his throat was sealed with a sharp weapon. The enemy's attack was clean and the dead guard did not fight back." The guard said, shaking his head slightly.
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, we found the bodies of several guards in the mountains ahead." At this time, another guard hurriedly came to report.
His face suddenly darkened, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a faint murderous look. Zhao Xingxing said slightly coldly: "It may be Xiao Chen's doing. Send people to search nearby immediately. Xiao Chen may still be nearby!"
A few minutes later, a large number of guards suddenly gathered somewhere in the mountains. More than twenty guards were lying on the ground. These were all killed guards.
Xiao Chen couldn't search, but he found the bodies of many guards.
Looking at these dead guards, Zhao Xingxing's face suddenly became gloomy, his flesh twitched, and he said solemnly: "Except for Xiao Chen, no one has had the guts to kill me in the Holy Fire Palace in so many years. That person! Xiao Chen must be nearby, so we should disperse and look for him immediately."
However, just as many guards dispersed, several jade bottles suddenly flew out strangely from beneath the ground.
"Hey, what is that?" The sharp-eyed guard suddenly shouted, and everyone looked at the jade bottle in the air.
"Bang bang bang!"
The five jade bottles containing green medicinal powder that flew out exploded in mid-air in vain. The green medicinal powder flew out wildly, dyeing the surrounding area green. The green powder slowly fell and entered the bodies of the guards with their breath. The faces and bodies of the guards were... It is also covered with a cyan veil, like a mutated species.
"Who is doing this? Get out of here!" A guard touched his face. The green powder was mixed with sweat. When it was wiped off, it turned into a green viscous substance. The guard suddenly said angrily.
His nose moved slightly, his face suddenly changed, and Zhao Xingxing shouted hurriedly: "Hurry and hold your breath! These are medicinal powders! Be careful of poisoning!"
Hearing this, the green faces of the guards also changed one after another, and they quickly held their breath.
However, when the guards held their breath, it seemed that it was already too late. The green medicinal powder had already entered their bodies and condensed a force in the meridians throughout their bodies, blocking their meridians. In the end, most of the guards with weak cultivation fell down helplessly. .
There were only a few guards with stronger cultivation standing in front of them to support their swaying and weak bodies.
Seeing that many guards fell helplessly, Zhao Xingxing's expression changed. He immediately activated the wind attribute Saint Yuan, shouted loudly, waved his arm, and the strong wind suddenly swept out, driving away all the cyan powder.
"What's going on? Why has the urging force become so weak?" When clearing the green prescription, Zhao Xingxing's face was slightly stunned and he asked strangely.
"Because this green medicinal powder can block the meridians in your body." A faint laughter suddenly sounded, and Xiao Chen slowly emerged from the ground strangely.
