Chapter 1859: Chapter 1856: Monster Li Chen
After pursuing all the way, they were surprised to find that they had lost track of Li Chen.
“Strange, where did that boy run off to?”
“Look quickly, there seems to be writing here!”
A guard saw a piece of exposed tree trunk with what seemed like writing on it and hurriedly shouted.
In an instant, the other guards gathered around at the first opportunity.
When they went closer to look, they discovered a line of words written on it.
Here is your burial ground!
Seeing this inexplicable sentence, the guards couldn’t help but be stunned, feeling a chill down their spines.
Before they could react, a sudden Sword Shadow struck through the air.
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
The Sword Shadow sliced through the air like lightning, brushing past the necks of each unlucky guard.
In an instant, blood gushed like a waterfall!
Soon after, the doomed guards let out their final cries of despair before collapsing to the ground.
Baili Da and Baili Youu heard the commotion and rushed over to investigate.
“Damn it, damn it, damn it, I must catch that guy and tear him to pieces, tear him to pieces!”
Seeing another five or six of his subordinates killed by Li Chen, Baili Youu roared angrily, furious.
The loss of guards was minor; the shame was the major issue.
If he couldn’t restore his reputation, how could Baili Youu be content?
Soon after, Baili Da, Baili Youu, and their men tracked to the side of the ravine.
In a very cautious tone, Baili Da ordered the surrounding guards: “Spread out and search, ten in a group. Once you find their trail, signal immediately!”
The guards responded in unison before grabbing their weapons and searching along the creek.
However, they found nothing.
“Strange, could that boy have just flown away?”
Baili Da frowned deeply.
Suddenly, his gaze swept across the lake, and a sinister smile appeared on his lips.
“Boy, let’s see how long you can hide!”
Baili Da shouted explosively, raised his saber, and slashed towards the lake.
Instantly, the calm lake erupted into a wave of turbulence.
As the spray surged high, a figure burst through the air.
The figure was no other than Li Chen!
“Get him, whoever captures or kills him will be heavily rewarded by me!”
Hearing Baili Youu’s hysterical roar, the guards’ eyes lit up as if they had seen a Golden Core.
They all raised their weapons, striking towards Li Chen.
“Go to hell!”
Li Chen shouted explosively, his fists like a dragon, shattering a guard’s steel blade directly.
Immediately, he chopped like a saber towards another guard’s arm.
“Crack!”
The unfortunate guard’s arm was neatly severed, with blood gushing out.
Screaming in agony, he writhed in pain from his severed arm.
Taking advantage of the chaos in their formation, Li Chen charged forth like a tiger into a flock of sheep, slaughtering in all directions.
He swept his leg horizontally with fierce wind, leaving devastation in his wake.
In an instant, another dozen or so guards fell dead at Li Chen’s hands.
Seeing Li Chen’s ferocity, the guards’ survival instinct drove them to retreat repeatedly.
Baili Youu was furious seeing this.
He grabbed his Wandering Dragon Saber, charging at Li Chen like a Jiao Long surging from the sea.
Li Chen rotated mid-air, narrowly avoiding Baili Youu’s blade.
Before Baili Youu could react, Li Chen’s heavy punch smashed towards the shoulder holding his sword.
“Crack!”
A crisp sound of bone breaking suddenly erupted.
“Ah!”
Baili Youu let out a piercing scream in mid-air.
His arm holding the saber was nearly severed.
The Wandering Dragon Saber fell from his grasp.
Seeing this, Li Chen reached out and caught the Wandering Dragon Saber thrown into the air.
He hefted its weight, inspected the blade, and the dragon-shaped patterns intricately carved on it, praising:
“Not bad, not bad, truly a fine saber!”
Baili Da was shocked when he saw Baili Youu’s arm shattered by Li Chen’s punch, and their ancestral Wandering Dragon Saber was also seized by Li Chen.
He rushed forward, shouting: “Young Master, Young Master, are you alright?”
Hearing this, Baili Youu could have skinned him alive.
His arm was broken, did he seem alright?
“Baili Da, go kill that boy, kill him, kill him!”
Hearing his Major General’s beast-like roar, Baili Da dared not take him lightly.
“You all guard the Young General well!”
After a simple order to the guards, Baili Da leaped towards Li Chen.
Seeing Baili Da rushing in, Li Chen immediately swung the Wandering Dragon Saber, slashing towards him.
Compared to Baili Youu, this slash from Li Chen was simple and direct, without any unnecessary flourishes.
Baili Da knew the Wandering Dragon Saber was a temper-hardened treasured blade, having accompanied General Baili to countless battles, extremely fierce.
Although he was an experienced Golden Core Cultivator, he didn’t dare face this saber head-on.
“Swish!”
Li Chen slashed again, reducing a massive rock to powder.
His Sword Skill was expansive and straightforward, with deadly precision.
Even an old hand like Golden Core Baili Da was left only able to block with no chance to retaliate.
Of course, being an experienced Golden Core Cultivator and having fought alongside General Baili, his combat experience was extensive, far beyond a novice like Li Chen.
Therefore, defeating him wasn’t an easy task for Li Chen.
The two soon fell into a stalemate.
As the fight continued, Baili Da was increasingly astonished by Li Chen’s prowess, seeing him as an abnormal being.
Not only was Li Chen’s combat ability terrifying, but also his physical defense and self-healing were equally formidable.
Baili Da frequently utilized his rich combat experience to effectively strike at the flanks.
This indeed injured Li Chen.
Had it been any other opponent, even a genuine Golden Core cultivator, they’d be seriously hurt if not killed.
But for Li Chen, it seemed like a mere scratch, causing no substantial harm besides surface cuts.
This was simply inhuman!
After a bout of fighting, Baili Da’s stamina started waning, and his moves became sloppy.
In contrast, Li Chen fought with increasing vigor, his attacks growing sharper.
It was evident he would not rest until Baili Da was slain on the spot…
