However, just as the Jagged Greatsword in his hand was about to fall on Chen Xuan—
The strange black banner wreathed in black smoke suddenly erupted with a terrifying power.
It sent him flying straight back.
Lin Qingtan grew anxious. "Senior Apprentice Brother Chen Kui, what are you still doing? Hurry up and cripple him for me!"
Ding, Lin Qingtan produced agitated + anxious emotions. Emotion value +200
"Little Junior Sister, don't panic. This guy has some tricks!"
Chen Kui shook his slightly numb arm.
Lin Qingtan urged, "Can you do it or not? If you can't, I'll call Master over!"
What? Call Master?
If Bo Xuan found out that he could not even deal with someone who had relied on a secret art to raise his strength...
He would definitely curse him bloody.
Chen Kui's eyes flickered. "In the end, it's strength raised through a secret art. It isn't his own, so it's useless! Little Junior Sister, just wait. Watch me!"
With that, he rolled up his sleeves.
Wisps of eerie black seeped out from beneath his skin.
In the blink of an eye...
Both his arms turned as black as ink.
His sharp fingertips gleamed with a dark light.
Faintly, an exceptionally strange chill radiated from them.
"Die!"
Chen Kui curled his hand into a claw and clawed at Chen Xuan from across the air.
At once, countless shrill screams like wandering ghosts rang out in the sky.
Surging gray-black rings of light condensed.
They transformed into a hundred-zhang dark ghost claw, carrying an extremely terrifying power.
It clawed viciously at Chen Xuan!
"So this is Senior Apprentice Brother Chen Kui's prized martial art? It's amazing!"
A trace of delight appeared on Lin Qingtan's face.
In her beautiful eyes as she looked at Chen Xuan...
A flash of resentment passed through them!
Bastard! Do you really think I, Lin Qingtan, am a soft persimmon you can squeeze however you like?!
Once Senior Apprentice Brother Chen Kui cripples you...
I'll make you wish you were dead!
Just as she was thinking this...
All of a sudden, a bizarre scene appeared.
All she saw was...
The ghost claw that had been giving off terrifying fluctuations a moment ago was actually being devoured by a terrifying vortex.
The ghost claw lasted less than five seconds before it collapsed outright.
What was going on?
Lin Qingtan's beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief!
Ding, Lin Qingtan produced smug + venomous + horrified emotions. Emotion value +300
Chen Kui's face was also full of shock!
He had thought he could defeat the enemy in one move, then seize the treasure, all in one smooth motion.
But reality had slapped him across the face!
How was this possible?
That move was his strongest killing move!
Plenty of geniuses in the Eastern Xuan Region had been defeated by it!
How had it been broken by him so easily?
No! Impossible!
This absolutely was not real!
Seeing this, Chen Xuan sneered. "Chen Kui, so this is your strongest killing move, the Great Darkness Heavenly Ghost Claw? It's nothing much!"
Before the Devouring Ancestral Symbol and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner...
I don't care if it's the Great Darkness Heavenly Ghost Claw or the Small Darkness Soul Hand—all of you have to kneel!
No room for discussion!
"Y-you... who exactly are you?"
Chen Kui's expression looked terrible.
Lin Qingtan flashed over to Chen Kui. "Senior Apprentice Brother Chen Kui, are you all right?"
Ding, Lin Qingtan generated nervous emotions. Emotion Points +100
Chen Kui gritted his teeth and shook his head.
"Chen Kui, you're no match for me. You'd better invite your master over," Chen Xuan said in a tone that sounded as if he was doing him a favor.
And his goal was also to collect Bo Xuan's soul into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.
To completely cut off Lin Qingtan's last hope!
Then slowly torment her!
"Brat, my master is one of the top experts on the continent. If she comes, she can kill you with one finger!"
Chen Kui sneered.
He was not wrong. A Samsara Stage expert against someone at the Nirvana Realm was indeed a crushing matchup.
Chen Xuan reminded him with a half-smile, "If you don't call her, you won't get another chance!"
Lin Qingtan said, "Senior Brother?"
"Junior Sister, this guy is a tough one. I'll hold him off. Hurry and crush the Jade Talisman to invite Master over!" Chen Kui's expression was incomparably grave.
He never would have imagined it.
That in the Eastern Xuan Region, he would actually run into such a gifted youth!
Strong. Far too strong!
"Okay." Lin Qingtan nodded.
She took out a black Jade Talisman.
Then crushed it, and a wisp of black energy spread out.
From beginning to end, Chen Xuan did not interrupt.
He let her summon her god.
Very soon, ripples spread through the sky.
A slender Dark Shadow emerged.
That figure was wrapped entirely beneath a Black Robe.
It was none other than Bo Xuan.
The moment she appeared, she scolded in a slightly reproachful tone, "Chen Kui, you can't even deal with someone at the Five or Six Yuan Nirvana Realm? Have you been cultivating for nothing?"
Ding, Bo Xuan generated angry emotions. Emotion Points 100 Ding, Lin Qingtan generated happy emotions. Emotion Points +100
Chen Kui could only say, "Master, he's somewhat unusual..."
Bo Xuan did not give him any chance to explain himself.
She immediately said, "Don't make excuses for your incompetence! After we return, go into seclusion and cultivate. You are not allowed to come out until you reach the Life Profound Realm!"
Chen Kui said, "As you command."
After she finished reprimanding Chen Kui, Bo Xuan finally looked at Chen Xuan.
A trace of shock also surfaced in her eyes.
Back then, she had only sensed his aura and had not seen him before.
Now that she saw him, she had not expected it either.
Chen Xuan was actually this young!
At just over ten years old, he already possessed the strength of the Five or Six Yuan Nirvana Realm.
Given time, he would definitely become someone great!
However, it was a pity.
He had no chance anymore.
Who told him to offend her beloved disciple?
She could only make a move personally and kill him!
Although it would not sound good if word got out, there was no one else nearby to know!
Ding, Bo Xuan generated surprise + arrogance emotions. Emotion Points +200
Bo Xuan said faintly, "End yourself."
End it yourself?
You had garlic this morning, didn't you?
Your breath sure was big.
Chen Xuan sneered. "I don't have a hobby of hurting myself. If you do, you can put on a show. I happen to have time, so I can watch and learn."
"What a sharp-tongued brat!"
Bo Xuan's voice was icy. "Very well. Since that's the case, I'll make a move myself!"
His words carried the contempt of someone high above.
It made Chen Xuan very unhappy. "I'd like to see as well what astonishing methods the current hall master of the legendary Darkness Hall has!"
"Hm? How did you know it was me?"
Bo Xuan's figure, shrouded in the black robe, paused, and his pupils contracted.
His face was filled with astonishment.
Just who was this young man?
Why, after learning his identity, did he show not the slightest fear, but instead become even calmer?
Could it be that behind him, there was another powerful expert who knew him well?
But who could it be?
"Don't worry about how I know. If you want to back up your disciple, you'd better first see whether your own back is strong enough!"
Chen Xuan had long since prepared the Reincarnation Stage experience card.
He was ready to strike at any moment!
Bo Xuan sneered. "This old one has not walked the continent for many years. I never thought that even a wet-behind-the-ears brat like you would dare provoke me! Very well. Once this old one takes you—"
Bo Xuan had not finished speaking.
The expression on his face suddenly froze!
He discovered that Chen Xuan's aura had actually soared in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, it had already reached a level equal to his own.
But!
The surge did not stop there.
It was still climbing!
In the end, it directly reached the legendary Reincarnation Stage!
