As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xi attacked once more as he didn’t intend to give them an opportunity to catch their breaths.

Bang!

Chen Xi opened his palm wide. It carried surging violet gold divine radiance as it smashed down like a violet gold colored divine cloud, and it even smashed space into pieces.

“Dammit!”

“Bastard!”

Leng Xinghun and Donghuang Yinxuan shouted loudly and furiously at the same time. Their eyes had almost split apart from rage as they’d never imagined that while they’d swallowed the humiliation and had yielded to Chen Xi, Chen Xi would actually not intend to show them any mercy.

They tried to resist with all their strength. But how could they resist Chen Xi?

In an instant, they were blasted flying once more while cracking resounded throughout the bones within their bodies. Their bodies were completely wrecked, and they seemed extremely miserable.

At this moment, Chen Xi was unrivalled!

He didn’t show any mercy. He pressed down step by step and utilized all his ability to not just destroy their bodies, he was ever crushing their spirit!

Because Tu Meng had been tortured just like this. Now, Chen Xi was merely giving them a taste of their own medicine.

Blood sprayed.

Shrill cries shook the sky.

Divine radiance swept towards the surroundings.

This expanse of the starry sky was in chaos. It was like purgatory, and it was a shocking scene.

At this moment, two existences that had just advanced into the ranks of Region Lords were like ants. They were completely crushed by Chen Xi and faced such a horrifying situation that it was unbearable to watch.

Even Tu Meng who resided in the distance couldn’t help but be stunned by this scene. He’d discerned that Chen Xi’s combat strength had become extremely formidable after advancing into the ranks of Region Lords, but he’d never imagined that Chen Xi would actually be so strong!

The joint forces of two Region Lords were actually unable to withstand him at all. Would anyone in the outside world dare to believe this?

Crushing strength!

Absolutely crushing strength!

Chen Xi’s all-powerful ability caused Tu Meng’s blood to boil, and he felt extremely delighted in his heart.

…

“I’ll fight you to the death!” Suddenly, Donghuang Yinxuan roared hysterically with rage. His imposing aura actually rose explosively at this instant, and it was rising constantly!

He seemed to have gone mad while in such a hopeless situation where he couldn’t flee and could only receive a beating, and he intended to risk everything and try to take Chen Xi down with him.

Bang!

In an instant, expanse after expanse of divine radiance surged all around Donghuang Yinxuan. He was like a war god bathed in the divine radiance of the Grand Dao. His eyes were bright like the stars while his body was filled with blazing divine radiance, and he was extraordinarily dazzling.

Besides this, the Taixuan Codex in his hand droned without end while it formed a grand and mysterious literary piece of the Heaven Dao, and it enveloped his entire body in dazzling and resplendent light.

Crack!

The heavens and the earth wrapped and collapsed as it was unable to endure this field of energy.

“Offering one’s self to the Dao, Heavenfall Art!” At this instant, Leng Xinghun’s heart couldn’t help but shake fiercely as he’d recognized this as a supreme technique of the Divine Institute. Obviously, Donghuang Yinxuan intended to fight desperately!

Donghuang Yinxuan’s imposing aura grew even more powerful and dangerous. Chen Xi’s eyes couldn’t help but narrow because of this. However, he didn’t stop his attack, and his palm was like a blade that could slash open the heavens as he struck once more with his palm.

However, an unexpected scene occurred. Donghuang Yinxuan flicked his sleeve, causing three figures to suddenly appear out of thin air and block Chen Xi’s attack.

On the other hand, the literary piece of the Grand Dao which was formed by his secret technique had seized this opportunity to blast forcefully onto the clear colored divine chains that confined this expanse of the heavens and the earth like shackles!

Obviously, he wasn’t fighting desperately. He’d resorted to deception and intended to seize this opportunity to break through the divine chains to escape!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Numerous mists of blood had exploded into existence. It was because those three figures had been annihilated by Chen Xi’s attack as soon as they appeared here. They didn’t even have the chance to react before they perished on the spot without even leaving anything behind.

However, Chen Xi had discerned to his surprise that those three figures were Zhu Qianyu, Gongsun Mu, and Taba Chuan!

Donghuang Yinxuan had clearly hidden the three of them within him since the beginning, but they’d been utilized by Donghuang Yinxuan to die in his place. They didn’t even know what had happened before they perished miserably on the spot.

Such a way of dying was simply aggrieving to the extreme.

Who would have imagined that as a fellow disciple of the Divine Institute, Donghuang Yinxuan would actually utilize their lives as a shield so that he could flee?

After all, all of them were Powerseal Disciples of the Divine Institute. They possessed extraordinary natural talent, superb physiques, and unparalleled bearings. They were absolutely one of the core members of the Divine Institute.

Yet now, they’d fallen to such a fate. Not only had they been betrayed by a fellow disciple, they’d even perished while in a completely ignorant state. If those seniors of the Divine Institute were to find out about this, they would definitely fume with rage.

At this instant, even Leng Xinghun couldn’t help but cry out in his heart. How ruthless!

Donghuang Yinxuan’s methods weren’t just ruthless, they were simply heartless and cruel to the extreme, and even Leng Xinghun, a disciple of the Sovereign Sect that was renowned for being without emotion, couldn’t help but feel shocked.

All of this took a long time to describe, yet it was actually completed in an instant. When Zhu Qian Yu and the others died, Donghuang Yinxuan’s ultimate attack had blasted forcefully onto the clear colored divine chains in the distance.

Bang!

This expanse of the heavens and the earth shook. At this moment, an enormous breach was forcefully broken open on the clear colored divine chains that confined this expanse of space like shackles!

Swoosh!

At practically the exact same moment, Donghuang Yinxuan’s figure flashed, and he flashed through the breach and vanished in the blink of an eye.

It was too swift!

It was swift to the point Chen Xi’s reaction was a trace to slow. The reason for this was that he’d similarly never imagined that Donghuang Yinxuan would actually act so despicably and ruthlessly. He’d actually treated Zhu Qianyu, Gongsun Mu, and Taba Chuan’s lives as cannon fodder, and it was truly unexpected.

Even Chen Xi was unable to imagine that a proud, dazzling, and peerless figure like Donghuang Yinxuan would be so despicable and shameless!

Swoosh!

A figure flashed before his eyes, and Chen Xi practically instinctively teleported and swiftly blocked that figure’s path.

“You want to flee as well?” Chen Xi stared coldly at the figure. This figure was Leng Xinghun. He’d intended to seize this opportunity to flee, but he was a little too slow and was stopped by Chen Xi.

In an instant, Leng Xinghun’s face dimmed down with dejection. No matter how strong and proud a person was, that person would definitely feel despair at such a moment.

Swish!

Chen Xi raised his right hand, causing violet gold divine radiance to converge in his palm like tidewater, and killing intent flowed within it.

He didn’t intend to delay any longer so as to avoid any unexpected events from occurring.

“AH!!” Right at this instant, a miserable and shrill cry resounded from far away. Surprisingly, it was Donghuang Yinxuan’s voice!

What happened? Could it be that someone was lying in ambush in the distance, and that person killed Donghuang Yinxuan while he was fleeing?

Chen Xi’s heart shook at this moment, and Leng Xinghun was no exception.

“Fellow Daoist Chen Xi. I’ve killed Donghuang Yinxuan.” A pleasant voice resounded. Along with this voice, Zhao Qingyao’s graceful and slender figure appeared and stood at the breach between the clear colored divine chains.

She held a smile on the corners of her mouth while she held a corpse in her hand. Shockingly, it was Donghuang Yinxuan!

Even though this peerlessly brilliant Eldest Powerseal Disciple of the Divine Institute had escaped calamity once, he’d died miserably at Zhao Qingyao’s hand. It was truly a cause for others to sigh about how the matters of the world were never constant.

When he saw that it was Zhao Qingyao, Chen Xi couldn’t help but nod before he said, “Thank you.”

On the other hand, Leng Xinghun’s heart fell cold while the despair in his heart grew deeper. That fellow, Donghuang Yinxuan, was dead, so all the disciples of the Divine Institute that had come to the Forgotten Grounds of Chaos could be said to be annihilated!

This caused Leng Xinghun to feel even more despair towards the situation he was in.

He recognized Zhao Qingyao. She was from the True Phoenix Palace, and based on the aura she revealed, she’d clearly advanced into the ranks of Region Lords.

Coupled with Chen Xi who stood before him, Leng Xinghun was immediately clearly aware that he would probably be unable to escape calamity today!

“Miss Zhao, please wait a moment. We can catch up after I send this friend from the Sovereign Sect on his way.” As he spoke, Chen Xi moved his gaze towards Leng Xinghun. His expression was indifferent, icy cold, and completely emotionless.

This was the Forgotten Grounds of Chaos, so he didn’t have to worry about the consequences of killing Leng Xinghun.

“Fellow Daoist Chen Xi, please go ahead.” Zhao Qingyao grinned while she moved gracefully, and she was just about to teleport and watch from afar when an unexpected event suddenly occurred!

Bang!

A blood red torrent suddenly appeared out of thin air. It instantly arrived in front of Zhao Qingyao, and then it locked onto her throat!

It was quick!

Too quick!

Zhao Qingyao didn’t even have the time to react before she was completely restrained. Her fate was suddenly in the hands of a blood red figure that arrived here abruptly, and she wasn’t even able to struggle.

In an instant, her expression changed abruptly, and she cried out involuntarily with shock.

She was a Region Lord now and possessed monstrous might. But even while under such circumstances, she’d been subdued in an instant, so this clearly showed how shocking this blood red figure’s strength was.

“Wang Zhong!” Chen Xi swiftly turned around and saw that blood red figure. Surprisingly, it was Wang Zhong who possessed a mysterious background and a fishy identity!

However, at this moment, Wang Zhong wore a blood red robe. His gaze was like a bolt of lightning while his brows were sharp like blades, and his entire body emanated an aged, icy cold, and terrifying aura.

He simply seemed like a completely different person!

Especially the imposing aura that effused out from him. It was violent and ghastly, and it threw the world into disorder. He was simply like a primeval Fiendgod, and he couldn’t be compared to the past at all.

Obviously, he’d found his ‘true body’! And he possessed a monstrous might that could rival a Region Lord!

“Chen Xi, we meet again.” Wang Zhong grinned while a wisp of terrifying coldness was revealed from within his eyes.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, Leng Xinghun who’d been disregarded throughout this time had seized this opportunity to suddenly flash off with the intention of fleeing.

However, his neck was grabbed by Chen Xi. Chen Xi held him up like a little chick, and he was unable to struggle at all.

“It’s already at a time like this, so do you think I would give you any chances?” Chen Xi’s voice was indifferent while a wisp of killing intent flashed silently in his eyes.

Leng Xinghun was instantly filled with despair, and he remained dejected and silent. Since he’d started cultivating until now, it was the first time he’d felt what it was like to be at the mercy of another.

“Wait! Otherwise, I’ll kill this woman!” Wang Zhong spoke coldly, and he exerted force with his palm, causing Zhao Qingyao’s face to instantly flush extremely red while she felt suffocated and helpless.

Just these words alone caused the killing intent in Chen Xi’s heart to be instantly suppressed, and his icy cold gaze shot over like a bolt of lightning and locked onto Wang Zhong.

“Let her go.” It was merely three words, yet they carried pressure that covered the heavens and the earth.

Wang Zhong remained unaffected, and he chuckled as he said, “Chen Xi, could it be that you think I’m still as I was in the past? To tell you the truth, I’m bound to be all-powerful in the Forgotten Grounds of Chaos!”

“Let her go!” Chen Xi frowned while his killing intent surged.

Wang Zhong’s eyes narrowed. He pondered deeply for a moment before he smiled and said, “Nevermind, I can let her go. Hand Leng Xinghun over to me. We’ll make an exchange, alright?”

Chen Xi was extremely surprised by this suggestion. If he wasn’t wrong, then there was no relationship between Wang Zhong and Leng Xinghun. Why does he intend to rescue Leng Xinghun now?
