In the air, Tang Xiaolong was completely unaware that Xiao Chen was right behind him, following closely. If Xiao Chen wanted to, he could overtake Tang Xiaolong and appear in front of him in a matter of minutes.
After all, Tang Xiaolong's speed was only 100 kilometers per hour, while Xiao Chen was much faster.
Finally, after two and a half minutes, Tang Xiaolong flew to the front of the Binding Life Formation. When he saw the Binding Life Formation, Tang Xiaolong couldn't help but frown.
"Is this the mysterious object my subordinates were talking about? But with my strength, even shattering this barrier shouldn't be too difficult!"
After saying that, Tang Xiaolong unleashed another fiery fist, blasting towards the barrier. The terrifying pillar of fire struck the barrier in an instant, but unexpectedly, the Binding Life Formation remained completely unmoved.
"You idiot! This isn't something you can destroy!"
Just then, Xiao Chen's disdainful voice came from behind. Tang Xiaolong looked behind him in horror and saw Xiao Chen standing on his sword.
"How is that possible? How could you possibly keep up with me when I'm this fast!"
Xiao Chen ignored him and instead looked at the Binding Life Formation, a top-tier Yellow Rank formation that even a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator could not destroy. Only cultivators above the Golden Core stage could break the formation!
"Alright, there's no point in you living anymore, so please just die!"
Xiao Chen looked at Tang Xiaolong coldly and said, "After playing with him for so long, it's time to end this farce."
At this moment, Tang Xiaolong realized that he was no match for Xiao Chen. The most important thing now was to find a way to survive. As long as he was alive, there was still a possibility!
"Young friend, you can't kill me! I'm willing to serve you as my master. I'm so powerful; if you take me in, you'll definitely become even stronger!"
Tang Xiaolong begged, saying that he was as arrogant as he had been before, and as humble as he was now.
"Fine, you'd better just die. After all, I'm already strong enough, and taking me in won't make me any stronger. Besides, I'm not used to keeping someone with a rebellious streak around!"
"Sword Draw Slash! (At the request of some readers, Sword Draw Slash has been changed to Sword Draw Slash!)"
Before Tang Xiaolong could react, a terrifying feeling of palpitation spread throughout his body. Almost instinctively, Tang Xiaolong dodged to the side, successfully severing most of his body!
"Aaaaaah! Fuck you! You dare kill me? I know Governor Jiang of Jiang Province. Governor Gao Qiqiang and I are sworn brothers. If you dare kill me, Gao Qiqiang will absolutely not let you get away with it!"
The immense pain caused Tang Xiaolong to wail incessantly. Hearing this, Xiao Chen frowned and simply waved his hand, instantly killing Tang Xiaolong on the spot.
After killing Tang Xiaolong, Xiao Chen flew to Tang Xiaolong's corpse and reached out to extract the crystal core from Tang Xiaolong's mind.
The crystal core in Tang Xiaolong's mind emitted a blazing red light. After receiving the crystal core from Tang Xiaolong, Xiao Chen murmured, "Perhaps this crystal core can be used by Qin Bajiao. After all, the combination of ice and fire seems to be quite good."
After saying that, Xiao Chen accepted the flame crystal core. This crystal core might be able to help Qin Bajiao awaken her flame ability.
However, Xiao Chen soon remembered the powerful backer that Tang Xiaolong had mentioned before his death.
"Jiang Province Governor Gao Qiqiang? I hope he doesn't mess with me, otherwise, the country will be destroyed."
Xiao Chen shook his head helplessly. He was no longer afraid of the state apparatus, unless there was a powerful figure at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage on the state's side.
With that thought in mind, Xiao Chen set off towards the cave, as he was quite interested in the sacred beasts of the Sacred Beast Sect.
When Xiao Chen returned to the cave, Lin Yichen was in much better condition.
"You have successfully killed the leader of the Holy Beast Cult, haven't you?"
Seeing Xiao Chen return, it was no surprise that Tang Xiaolong must be dead.
"Hmm, wear this crystal core. It might help you awaken your superpowers!"
Xiao Chen looked at Qin Bajiao and said, then handed the Flame Crystal Core to Qin Bajiao. When she touched the crystal core, Qin Bajiao felt a warm sensation coming from it, similar to the effect of the Red Stone.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen was certain that Qin Bajiao could absorb the flame crystal core and awaken her flame ability.
After all, even without being absorbed, the flame crystal core had a terrifying temperature exceeding 100 degrees Celsius, yet Qin Bajiao was completely unharmed. Xiao Chen wouldn't believe it unless she had awakened her flame ability.
"Alright, let's go and see the so-called sacred beasts of the Sacred Beast Cult!"
After saying that, Xiao Chen walked towards a certain place in the Holy Beast Sect, and Qin Bajiao and Lin Yichen quickly followed.
Led by Xiao Chen, they soon arrived at a spacious laboratory, where they finally saw the sacred beast.
"Is this the sacred beast? It's huge!"
"Wow, I feel so small standing in front of it."
Qin Bajiao and Lin Yichen stood there in shock, saying that in their eyes, the sacred beast in front of them was five meters tall and weighed as much as five tons, a truly gigantic beast.
Above the sacred beast, there were hundreds of iron chains as thick as an adult's thigh, tightly binding it. Otherwise, the sacred beast would have already destroyed the Sacred Beast Cult.
Upon hearing Qin Bajiao and Lin Yichen's words, the Holy Beast Cult members, who had not yet received the news, angrily said, "Who exactly are you people? You are not allowed to enter the Holy Beast Lord's territory!"
After saying that, he was about to come over and drive Xiao Chen and the other two out.
"The Holy Beast Cult has been destroyed; you may all follow them on your way!"
Xiao Chen said expressionlessly, then flicked his finger and unleashed several streams of spiritual energy, severing their heads. They died relatively easily.
After dealing with the members of the Holy Beast Cult present, Xiao Chen looked at the enormous creature in front of him. At this moment, the Holy Beast also opened its eyes and looked at Xiao Chen.
"Not a demonic beast, but a strange beast?"
Xiao Chen murmured. He had already sensed that the sacred beast in front of him did not have spiritual energy, but was filled with another terrifying energy, but this energy was still not as terrifying as spiritual energy.
All things have a spirit, and all can enter the Dao. Humans can become powerful by absorbing spiritual energy, and so can animals. However, animals that absorb spiritual energy are called demon beasts.
However, Xiao Chen could sense that the power within the beast in front of him was the same as that of Tang Xiaolong and other ability users; it was all superpowers. He guessed that some animal had awakened a superpower similar to that of the birdman from before.
Thinking about himself, Xiao Chen had an idea, and then he set off towards the sacred beast.
