Halfway up the mountain, Chi Chen and his companions, completely unaware of the power struggles among the bigwigs outside, were currently engaged in a fierce battle.
Within half an hour, the square was piled with nearly a hundred mysterious corpses, but in the forest, it seemed that a constant stream of mysterious creatures kept emerging. For every few that Chi Chen and his group killed, several new mysterious creatures would immediately appear.
By this point in the battle, many of the newcomers had sustained injuries of varying sizes, but through their efforts, they were still managing to support each other and hold the line.
Why haven't the instructors shown up yet?
Holding a long sword and clad in a phantom armor, Chi Chen gradually sensed something was amiss. If this was truly Cheng Hu's doing, it should have gone far enough.
If this continues, some of the new recruits might actually die.
Chi Chen moved among the mysterious group, fighting three Solid Realm Mysteries at the same time like a war god. Back then, when he and Lin Bai first carried out the mission assigned by Zhang Rong, they felt extremely powerless when facing just one Solid Realm Mystery, and could only feel despair.
Now, with the terrifying support of the Battle Saint Intent and the Battle Saint Armor, Chi Chen is actually able to fight against three Solid Mirror Mysteries at the same time and gain the upper hand. Behind Chi Chen, the corpse of a Solid Mirror Mystery is lying quietly on the ground. It is the unlucky guy that he had previously cleaved in two with a single slash.
"No, we can't let this drag on any longer!"
Chi Chen glanced around the square. The rest of the area was gradually losing its strength. There were a total of eight Solid Mirror Mysteries. Although Chi Chen was holding off four of them, Gan Yuan and the others not only had to hold off the Solid Mirror Mysteries, but also had to intercept some Radiant Mirror Mysteries heading towards Lin Bai and the others. Even though their combat strength was considerable and their Forbidden Ones were even stronger, they were still expending a lot of energy facing so many Mysteries and were gradually starting to feel overwhelmed.
Chi Chen looked towards the edge of the forest, where a mysterious creature was staring at him with its scarlet eyes wide open. That was the most terrifying creature in the group of mysterious creatures. Even Chi Chen felt a great pressure just from being stared at by it.
But for some reason, that mysterious creature never moved forward a single step from beginning to end, simply watching its kind fight with Chi Chen and the others!
"die!"
Chi Chen suddenly exerted his strength, and his long sword slashed at a mysterious creature in front of him at a tricky angle. The long sword, which suddenly accelerated, flashed with a cold light and went whistling away.
"puff!"
The blade pierced the body, and an ugly head was cleaved off by Chi Chen's blade. The mysterious head of the Solid Mirror Realm once again died under Chi Chen's blade.
"That's incredible!"
Not far away, Gan Yuan and the others watched as Chi Chen killed another Solid Mirror Mystic. Their eyelids twitched involuntarily. Although they had also killed quite a few Mystics, their achievements were nothing compared to Chi Chen's.
Why is Chi Chen so abnormal when they are both human?
Chi Chen felt no joy at slaying another mysterious creature of the Solid Mirror realm. Instead, his eyes narrowed and his expression became even more solemn. The mysterious creature, which stood upright with a leopard-like head and a wolf-like body, finally moved when he severed the head of the creature in front of him.
"We must deal with these two issues immediately!"
Chi Chen's expression hardened, and his chest continued to heat up. Under his deliberate push, more strange power surged to all parts of his body, but this was accompanied by the rapid dissipation of Chi Chen's mental power. Even with the support of the Battle Domain, under such a high-intensity battle, the mysterious power absorbed by the Battle Domain could not keep up with his consumption.
Chi Chen charged forward, his longsword trembling incessantly. A milky-white blade light burst forth from the blade, surging with lightning speed into the body of a mysterious being in the Solid Mirror realm. With a soft explosion, the body of the mysterious being in the Solid Mirror realm instantly shattered into countless pieces that flew out.
Just as Chi Chen swiftly dispatched another Solid Mirror Mystic, the last Solid Mirror Mystic he faced behind him extended two fleshy tentacles from its body, lashing out at Chi Chen's head like whips.
Despite the weakness that came from activating the blade's light, Chi Chen suddenly slid down, letting the two fleshy tentacles lash past his head. Then, Chi Chen braced himself with one hand on the ground, using the momentum to rotate his body, and forcefully slashed backward with his long blade.
"puff!"
With another sound of a long blade piercing flesh, the last Solid Mirror Mysterious Being that Chi Chen was facing was cleaved in two by his blade.
The foul-smelling, greenish blood sprayed all over Chi Chen, but Chi Chen couldn't care less about the disgusting feeling, because in front of him, a mysterious creature suddenly descended from the sky, its thick arms slamming directly at Chi Chen.
"Chi Chen, watch out!!"
Upon seeing this, Gan Yuan and the others exclaimed in alarm and were about to step back to help Chi Chen, but the mysterious figure in front of them suddenly became even more violent, blocking their way as if it didn't care about its own life.
At the critical moment, Chi Chen held the swords in both hands, holding the long swords horizontally in front of him.
"Bang!"
The wolf-shaped, mysterious arms slammed heavily onto Chi Chen's longsword, and the terrifying fangs on the leopard's head were revealed with its ferocious smile.
Chi Chen was sent flying backwards instantly, and a cracking sound seemed to come from his arms as the long sword in his hand slipped from his grasp.
"Chi Chen!!"
Everyone was shocked to see this. Even Chi Chen couldn't withstand the mysterious wolf-shaped creature and was sent flying by a single blow.
That was truly a mysterious sight, like a rising mirror!
How could that be?
Why would the instructors arrange for such a mysterious creature to fight against them? Is this a death sentence for them?
Why haven't the instructors shown up yet?
Chi Chen's backward flight immediately panicked the newlyweds present. If even Chi Chen couldn't withstand that mysterious creature, then who could?
With everyone else entangled in the mystery, who else could help Chi Chen?
On the square, an atmosphere of fear gradually intensified, and everyone's breathing became heavy.
Some of the new recruits even showed signs of despair. They couldn't understand why this was a new recruit training camp arranged by the General Bureau of the Slaying Secrets.
How come their lives are now truly in serious danger?
In their panic, several newcomers stood frozen in place.
"careful!"
The other newlyweds beside them, seeing this, shouted angrily and rushed forward to push them away.
"Pfft!"
But the next moment, several streams of bright red blood, different from the green blood on the field, splattered onto the faces of the newcomers.
"Ahhh!"
The painful screams instantly jolted everyone on the field awake. The newcomers who had been pushed aside felt the warm blood on their faces and stared blankly at the newcomers who had fallen in front of them.
"Why...why did you save me!"
One of them stared blankly, muttering to himself, looking incredulously at the other person at his feet. The two of them were clearly not that close.
"Because...we've been comrades for a long time..."
On the ground, the newcomer who had taken the blow for him and was now lying in a pool of blood answered him weakly.
"Everyone, move closer to me and protect the wounded!"
Lin Bai looked at the direction Chi Chen flew backward and suppressed the urge to rush over. He snapped his fingers and used two more small annihilation attacks, making his already pale face even paler. After using dozens of annihilation attacks in a row, Lin Bai's mental power was almost exhausted. He did not have Chi Chen's battle domain. The 010 annihilation attack was terrifying in its killing power, but it also consumed a great deal of energy from Lin Bai.
Upon hearing this, the others rushed towards Lin Bai with all their might. The few newcomers who had been pushed aside finally came to their senses as they watched their companions lying on the ground groaning in pain. The fear and despair in their eyes slowly faded, replaced by a pair of eyes that, though bloodshot and tearful, were incredibly determined. They took a step forward and stood guard in front of the people on the ground.
All these changes happened in just a few breaths.
Chi Chen leaped up from the ground, his arms hanging down. Even with the protection of the Battle Saint Armor, the mysterious wolf-shaped attack had still transmitted its power, almost breaking his arms.
"We can't fight him in the middle of the crowd!"
Chi Chen's face was grim, his eyes fixed on the mysterious figure emanating a terrifying aura. If he were to enter the crowd, even a casual strike would be enough to kill all the newcomers on the spot.
Chi Chen moved quickly, enduring the excruciating pain in his arm, and barely managed to pick up the long sword and hold it in his hand. Then he tore off several strips of cloth from his clothes and used them to secure the long sword firmly to his palm.
"Come on! I know you've been watching me!"
Chi Chen ran up to the wolf-shaped mystery, but did not attack it. He then leaped over the group of mystics and took down a few more Bright Lamp Realm mystics before quickly running into the forest.
"roar!"
Seeing this, the wolf-shaped mystery instantly moved and chased after Chi Chen. Several mysteries blocked his way, and he even tore them to pieces with one hand, as if he didn't care about the lives of the other mysteries at all.
As expected, Chi Chen's guess was correct; in the eyes of that mysterious being at the Ascension Realm, there was only him from beginning to end.
“Chi Chen, he…”
Seeing this, the others all wore complicated expressions. How could they not see why Chi Chen was doing this?
"Kill them!"
Wen Xin let out a rare angry roar, her fair face flushed, and her spiritual power suddenly burst forth, sending forth bursts of burial flowers. With a furious flick of her spear, she actually pierced through the mysterious body of the solid mirror in front of her.
"I don't want to lose to a woman!"
Wang Hao muttered something, and the originally dull and lifeless holy armor suddenly burst forth with a dazzling silver-white light. Then, Wang Hao's figure seemed to grow larger, and he unleashed an indomitable aura, actually engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the mysterious solid mirror. In no time, he tore it in two. However, Wang Hao then lost his balance and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, someone nearby caught him, preventing him from falling directly into the pile of mysterious objects.
Gan Yuan's body also surged with black flames, which rose up and seemed to form a hideous ghost face in the air before suddenly lunging forward and instantly burning away the several mysterious beings at the Radiant Light Realm in front of him.
At this moment, everyone in the square was bursting with power, using their last bit of spiritual strength to protect their companions.
"Chief Instructor, aren't we going to make a move?"
A few minutes ago, just as Chi Chen was slaying the third Solid Mirror Mystic, Pang Feng and the others looked anxiously at Cheng Hu in the hidden cave. They knew that Cheng Hu was known for his strictness, but if things continued like this, there would really be casualties among the newcomers!
Even if you want the newlyweds to know how terrifying the mystery is, is it really necessary to go to this extent?
"Wait a little longer, it's not enough!"
Cheng Hu stared at the big screen, his expression unchanged, but his slightly clenched hands revealed the unease in the head instructor's heart.
Wenxiong remained silent, but he also had a bad feeling.
"Have you been discovered? Hmph, even if you have been discovered, what can Cheng Hu do now?"
Wenxiong glanced at Cheng Hu in front of him, and his hand, hidden in his sleeve, moved slightly.
At the same time, it was also the moment when the mysterious wolf-shaped creature leaped high and crashed down on Chi Chen.
"Set off!"
Finally, Cheng Hu spoke up, and inside the cave, the instructors received orders and rushed out as fast as they could.
