Chapter 525 - 523: A Vicious Group
The world fell deathly silent!
They stared at the figure, his black hair dancing wildly in the air, like a divine demon.
Who was he?
At this moment, that thought finally surfaced in the minds of the onlookers.
"He seems kind of familiar!"
"I feel like I’ve seen him somewhere before!"
"But a Spirit Infant Realm cultivator should be a newcomer."
...
These were the thoughts running through the crowd at this moment.
In truth, Jiang Jichen was a wanted criminal in the Heavenly Dao Realm, and his image was posted in bounty guilds everywhere.
However, Jiang Jichen’s appearance had changed somewhat since then.
Besides, few people would pay much attention to a mere Spirit Infant Realm cultivator.
Even though Jiang Jichen was a wanted man in the Heavenly Dao Realm, so much time had passed that not many people still paid him any mind.
Therefore, for the time being, no one could recognize Jiang Jichen.
The crowd only felt that this young man had appeared out of nowhere, his power unmatched.
The moment he arrived in Chaotic City, he declared his intention to wipe out the Poison Devouring Sect.
But the Poison Devouring Sect was incredibly powerful, and its Sect Leader was a genius ranked seventy-eighth on the Six Paths Illusion Realm’s expert list.
’This Spirit Infant Realm youth will inevitably be defeated. In the end, he won’t escape death.’ This was what everyone thought.
Even though Jiang Jichen had just displayed immense power, crushing and eliminating the guards at the Poison Devouring Sect’s gate, those were just ordinary experts of the Poison Devouring Sect.
The true elites and core disciples had yet to appear.
Sand Snake Ancestor had said that the Poison Devouring Sect had over a hundred Nascent Soul Perfection Realm cultivators.
Jiang Jichen had yet to encounter the true powerhouses of the Poison Devouring Sect.
However, after Jiang Jichen destroyed the Poison Devouring Sect’s gate and wiped out the surrounding disciples, those true powerhouses finally made their appearance.
"Someone actually dares to kill my Poison Devouring Sect’s people and destroy our gate? No matter who it is, they will die! No one can protect them!"
Figure after figure with incomparably tyrannical auras rushed out from the depths of the buildings, appearing in an instant before the destroyed gate of the Poison Devouring Sect.
All of them wore incredibly ugly expressions, their bodies wreathed in a poisonous light that seemed ready to erupt at any moment.
Jiang Jichen’s expression was cold. He uttered a single, indifferent word: "Kill!"
Little Gray, Han Qing, the Three Strange Bandits, and Luochen Fairy had long been ready.
The moment these people appeared, they launched their prepared attacks.
Luochen Fairy was the first to act. Her jade hands moved in a blur, sprinkling a sheet of secret light that fell upon the dozens of powerful Poison Devouring Sect disciples before her.
This was the Light of Forbidden Spirit, capable of temporarily sealing a person’s Spiritual Power.
Once touched by the Light of Forbidden Spirit, the flow of their Spiritual Power would be affected, slowing down and reducing their strength by several tenths at least.
Ever since arriving, Luochen Fairy had been preparing this very Restriction Technique.
The instant she heard Jiang Jichen’s command, she unleashed it.
The forbidden light flowed, dreamlike and illusory, scattering down in specks.
It looked incredibly beautiful and fantastical, yet it concealed an infinite killing intent.
This group from the Poison Devouring Sect were all Nascent Soul Old Monsters, experienced and knowledgeable.
How could they not know how terrifying this Light of Forbidden Spirit was?
"Crap, dodge! Don’t let it touch you!"
These men, who had emerged just moments ago with domineering and arrogant auras, were now screaming in terror and retreating in disarray.
They were terrified of being touched by the Light of Forbidden Spirit.
But in the same instant Luochen Fairy unleashed the Light of Forbidden Spirit, Jiang Jichen, Little Gray, Han Qing, the Three Strange Bandits, and Zhou Qiang had already made their move.
They flashed behind them in a heartbeat.
The Light of Forbidden Spirit, as if possessing its own Divine Sense, actively avoided Jiang Jichen and his group.
This was, of course, because Luochen Fairy was controlling it.
PFFT! PFFT! PFFT!
Because everything happened so suddenly, and the coordination of Jiang Jichen’s group was flawless, a perfect match.
As a result, in a mere instant, a large number of Poison Devouring Sect disciples were taken down.
It was a completely one-sided slaughter!
By the time the effects of the Light of Forbidden Spirit finally faded, of the thirty-plus Nascent Soul Perfection Realm cultivators who had rushed out, more than twenty had already been felled.
The rest were met by Jiang Jichen, who took the lead, using his body as a weapon. Coordinating with his Mountain River Shadow Stepping Technique, he sent them flying one by one.
Those who were sent flying didn’t even have a chance to activate their Poison Techniques before they felt their bodies about to shatter, their heads spinning, unable to gather their Spiritual Power.
Even more terrifying, their bodies were sent flying uncontrollably to different locations, landing right next to Han Qing, Little Gray, Luochen Fairy, and the Three Strange Bandits.
One Poison Devouring Sect Nascent Soul Old Monster even appeared suddenly in front of Liu Tian.
Liu Tian had already snapped out of his earlier shock. He was a decisive man with a firm will.
Moreover, he happened to recognize the Nascent Soul Old Monster in front of him as one of the men who had annihilated his Celestial Twin Sect.
And so, his eyes bloodshot, he gritted his teeth as his blade rose and fell.
SQUELCH!
Amidst the Nascent Soul Old Monster’s terrified expression, his head was sent flying.
A Spirit Infant shot out, trying to escape, but a small Skeleton Soldier wearing a huge Gem Necklace suddenly appeared. Its little bone hand gently poked, shattering the Spirit Infant.
Then, the Skeleton Soldier devoured its soul.
The crowd saw this scene clearly. They saw over thirty small Skeleton Soldiers suddenly appear before the gate, each wearing an enormous Gem Necklace on its chest, looking utterly bizarre.
But what was most shocking was the coordination between two of the Skeleton Soldiers.
Just now, Liu Tian had only managed to decapitate the Nascent Soul Old Monster. The Spirit Infant had shot out and almost escaped.
But then, one Skeleton Soldier grabbed another’s little bone hand and threw it with all its might.
The second Skeleton Soldier flew over at extreme speed and, with one strike of its bony hand, shattered the fleeing Spirit Infant.
This scene was not an isolated incident; it was happening everywhere.
They swayed their small skeletons, their movements cunning and insidious to the extreme. They were nothing like the clumsy Little Skeletons everyone had seen or known before.
Furthermore, Han Qing, Little Gray, and the Strange Bandits were all incredibly vicious.
In just a short while, the thirty-plus Nascent Soul Perfection Realm old monsters from the Poison Devouring Sect who had just rushed out were completely wiped out.
They had arrived with great ferocity, but in the end, they were all annihilated by the group without even having the chance to use a single Poison Technique.
The onlookers, including Liu Tian, were all so shocked they were left dumbfounded.
’Just what kind of people are they?’
’Vicious, powerful, perfectly coordinated, and insidiously cunning...’
They had never imagined that a group of individuals, none of whom seemed overwhelmingly powerful on their own, could display such world-shaking combat prowess through teamwork.
Especially that Spirit Infant Realm Extreme Genius—he was practically a human-shaped Fierce Beast.
All of the Poison Devouring Sect cultivators were sent flying, only to be finished off by the people at his side.
Their battle record was too astonishing; it completely dazzled all the onlookers.
Even the main contingent of the Poison Devouring Sect, who had finally arrived, found it hard to accept the sight of the destroyed gate and the ground littered with mangled corpses.
At their head was a middle-aged man with a dark expression, glaring at Jiang Jichen with extreme ferocity.
"The Vice Sect Leader of the Poison Devouring Sect, Miao Que, has appeared!"
Seeing the newcomer, someone in the crowd cried out in alarm.
