More than an hour later, on the ground, none of the nearly one hundred mysterious creatures that had attacked Chi Chen and his group earlier escaped. They were all wiped out by Chi Chen and his nine companions in front of the two off-road vehicles.
Even Chi Chen had to devour two mysterious souls at the Ascension Realm to achieve such an effect.
Even though the "Divine Restriction Cannot Imprison" had no side effects after Chi Chen devoured the soul, the prolonged consumption of mental energy still left Chi Chen feeling mentally exhausted.
The others were also exhausted. Lin Bai lay down on the dirty ground, not caring whether the blood would stain him.
Having put away her spiked club, Hu Miaomiao had lost her previous aggressive demeanor. She sat on the ground, leaning gently against a rock, occasionally glancing in the direction of Chi Chen, and letting out a soft hum.
"Hmph, he didn't even come to help me just now. I'm a girl, you know. With so many mysterious figures surrounding me, wasn't he afraid something would happen to me?"
Hu Miaomiao snorted inwardly with some dissatisfaction.
If Chi Chen knew this, he would definitely want to open Hu Miaomiao's head to see how her brain works.
Regardless of the fact that Chi Chen had just lured ten Ascension Realm mystics into battle while also holding off a bunch of Solid Realm mystics, which greatly relieved the pressure on Hu Miaomiao and the others.
The scene where Hu Miaomiao swung her spiked club and took down one Solid Realm Mystic with each blow, and even the Ascending Realm Mystic couldn't withstand two blows from her, even Chi Chen exclaimed "Wow!" after seeing it.
Does this even need help?
Hu Miaomiao's attack method was extremely simple: she would suddenly appear behind the mysterious figure using her elusive Shadow Gate, and then swing her spiked club to smash the mysterious figure's head.
During the battle, Hu Miaomiao did not exhibit any other forbidden characteristics, yet with such simple attacks, those mysterious beings seemed dumbfounded before her, unable to dodge the blows of the spiked club.
Chi Chen didn't know whether he hadn't seen clearly what method Hu Miaomiao had used, or whether the problem lay with Hu Miaomiao's spiked club.
Regarding this secret, Chi Chen never asked the girl who came from the heretical forbidden place, and Hu Miaomiao never asked why the monkey appeared on the battlefield that day, or why Chi Chen was able to reach the Ascension Realm in such a short time.
Of course, this is not because there is any estrangement between them. They have been through life and death together, so their bond is naturally very strong.
Everyone has their own secrets, and every secret will eventually be revealed; it's just that the time hasn't come yet.
After grumbling inwardly a few times, Hu Miaomiao looked at Chi Chen and then, as if she had thought of something, started to laugh blankly again.
The five of them, including You Huang, were still somewhat dazed and in disbelief as they looked at the mysterious corpses scattered on the ground. So many mysteries, just like that, gone.
Although You Huang and his group of five had participated in battles of far greater scale than this, what had just happened still surprised them somewhat.
The mysterious group that faced Chi Chen was completely slaughtered. Five of them, who possessed forbidden abilities, were killed in less than ten minutes due to Chi Chen's sudden increase in power. Moreover, this was when they ganged up on Chi Chen. If they had fought Chi Chen one by one, they would probably have been killed by him with a single strike.
Now, You Huang and others have a clearer understanding of Chi Chen's terrifying combat power: he is a true god of war and a god of death.
You Huang was certain that even an ordinary Star Radiance Realm mystery was something Chi Chen might encounter.
With such a war god in the team, You Huang felt much more at ease outside the city.
Perhaps this is a case of fortune and misfortune being intertwined. Originally, You Huang and the others were supposed to die at Karl's hands, but because of that incident, he got to know Chi Chen and the others.
Chi Chen was also sitting on the ground. Although he looked a little tired, his eyes were shining. The accumulation of merit points was a given. He had also poured nearly a hundred mysterious souls from the Solid Mirror realm into the statue of the Fengdu Emperor.
Within the Soul Prison, more than twenty mysterious soul bodies at the Ascension Realm have also been added. Each mysterious soul body at the Ascension Realm allows Chi Chen to reach the Ascension Realm for approximately twenty minutes. With these soul bodies, Chi Chen can say that as long as he doesn't encounter a Star Radiance Realm cultivator, even if he were to be directly attacked by a tidal wave of more than two hundred of these mysterious soul bodies, even if he couldn't defeat them, he should still be able to escape without any problem.
Ten minutes later, to avoid attracting the mysterious group again with the strong smell of blood, the group continued driving in their off-road vehicles for about an hour before stopping at a place with a wide field of vision, where they could quickly spot any mysterious creatures that might appear, to rest and regroup.
"How did all these mysteries end up in one place?"
On the dark ground, You Huang rubbed his somewhat dirty head, puzzled as to why there would be hundreds of mysterious creatures gathered not far from Guangxia City.
In the past, those mysterious groups would gather in groups of a dozen or twenty. They also possessed considerable intelligence, especially those above the Ascension Realm. To prevent them from gathering too large and becoming too conspicuous, thus attracting the city's cleanup efforts, usually one or two, or at most five or six, Ascension Realm mystics would lead a group of Solid Realm or lower mystics to roam around Guangxia City, thus ambushing small groups of a few people going out.
The previous wave of over a hundred mysterious creatures was clearly composed of several small teams of mysterious creatures. You Huang noticed this shortly after the battle began, because after the group of mysterious creatures was scattered by Lin Bai's annihilation attack, they quickly regrouped into piles, indicating that this organization had been in place beforehand. Most importantly, none of the mysterious creatures had a leader.
Otherwise, Chi Chen and his team wouldn't have been able to end the battle so quickly. If the other side had truly united as one, their side wouldn't have had it so easy.
"Brother You, does something still feel off?"
Seeing You Huang's thoughtful expression, Chi Chen humbly asked, "What Chi Chen and his companions lack right now is experience outside the city. This kind of experience cannot be learned just by listening. That's why Chi Chen and his companions are acting with You Huang and his group. While practicing on their own, having an experienced person by their side can help them learn the rules of operation outside the city more quickly."
"Yeah, no matter how you look at it, something just doesn't feel right!"
You Huang responded, then pondered for a moment before suddenly asking Xiao Huang beside him:
"Little Huang, are we heading in the same direction as when we found the obsidian last time?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huang paused for a moment before replying:
"Yeah, Brother You, didn't you choose this route yourself? We've traveled this route many times, it's considered a relatively safe one!"
"That's it! It must be! Something must have changed at the place where we found the obsidian. I was wondering why we were so lucky to find the obsidian there last time, even though we've been there so many times before!"
You Huang's eyes suddenly turned fiery, and a bold idea popped into his head.
"Brother You, are you saying that place might have an obsidian vein?"
Xiao Huang also realized it instantly, and his eyes lit up. There was indeed a small mountain range in that place.
Upon hearing this, Chi Chen and the other three exchanged glances. Obsidian mine?
A piece of obsidian the size of a thumb can be exchanged for more than 180,000 obsidian. If it were a mine, how many merit points would that be worth?
