Chapter 72 The Man in Green Clothes
"When did you find me?" A faint voice echoed, and a man slowly walked out from the dark place.
He was dressed in a green robe, his footsteps silent and soundless. As he moved, he seemed to blend into the surroundings, becoming one with the environment. Even when facing him directly, it was easy to overlook him, as if this man didn't exist at all.
This man is precisely the green-robed man in the noble guest room.
"I knew it when you hid there." Xia Chen said, his ears moved slightly, with the Tian Shu Qi Shu's Su Er Gong Fa, unless it was a divine cultivator, any postnatal cultivator's movements couldn't be hidden from him.
The man in the green robe looked at him, his eyes flashing, and suddenly said: "You sent that surname Wind away, not because you didn't want to kill him, but because you were afraid he would join forces with me to deal with you."
"That's right." Xia Chen also didn't deny it, "If you two join hands, that would be quite troublesome."
The man in blue smiled slightly: "You're too cautious, I won't join hands with anyone, even if he's a Sixth-Order cultivator of the Post-Heavenly realm, he doesn't have that qualification."
His entire body suddenly emitted a sound like waves, as if the wind was blowing from behind, just like standing on the cliff by the sea, with surging tides crashing against the shore, and the ancient rocks stood still for millions of years.
The day after tomorrow, Eightfold Refining Blood Realm! Blood like a tidal wave!
Xia Chen's eyes narrowed, and his internal alarm instantly rose to its peak. He could now completely annihilate anyone in the same realm as him, easily defeat those who had cultivated six layers of the Acquired Realm, and with a fierce battle, he might be able to defeat those who had cultivated seven layers. If he were to go all out, he should also be able to emerge victorious against those who had cultivated eight layers, but that would be a tough fight.
What kind of person is this? It's actually a postnatal eightfold cultivation, and Xia Chen thought to himself, it seems that the man in green clothes is still a loose cultivator.
"You're very strong!" the man in green clothes said, "I've never seen a postnatal five-layer as powerful as you, but as long as you haven't reached postnatal seven-layer, you're not my opponent. Hand over that piece of scrap iron, tell me why you're after it, and if your explanation satisfies me, I might consider only crippling your cultivation and sparing your life."
He too had made up his mind to be ruthless, this young man was so strong at such a young age, if he grew up, how terrifying would he become in the future, he must strangle him in the cradle before he grows up.
Xia Chen laughed: "You want to abandon me and still let me reveal the secret of that scrap iron, do you think it's possible?"
"If you speak out, you'll just be discarded." The man in the green robe said calmly, "If you don't speak out, not only will you be discarded, but you'll also die, and it won't be a good death!"
His entire body suddenly emitted a surging wave of sound again, and with one step, he crossed over to Xia Chen's face, as if a turbulent flood peak, fiercely pressing down on Xia Chen.
The day after tomorrow, the Eightfold Refining Blood Realm, every part of the body can exert force, which is equivalent to saying that his entire body is a weapon, and it can be said that wherever he points, he will hit.
Xia Chen felt a crushing pressure coming at him like a tsunami, his face changed color and he involuntarily took a step back.
But he took a step back, and the man in green immediately followed up with another step. His figure was not tall and large, but it gave people a feeling of being as majestic as a high mountain, under this pressure, let alone take action, even the mind would become depressed.
Xia Chen finally felt what it was like to be oppressed by others, this feeling really made him feel suffocated.
Roar! Xia Chen let out a furious roar, advancing instead of retreating. His speed was no match for the man in green, and retreating would be futile anyway. He might as well launch a direct attack. The two men's speeds were extremely fast, and with Xia Chen's sudden advance, they almost stood face to face.
He instantly drew four fist shadows with both hands and heavily struck them on the shoulders of the man in green.
A man in a green robe had a faintly disdainful smile on his face, and without avoiding or yielding, he raised two fingers of his right hand and pointed at Xia Chen's chest.
Bang! Xia Chen's fist heavily smashed onto the shoulder of the man in green, just like an iron hammer smashing into an iron block. A massive counterforce was transmitted back, instantly numbing Xia Chen's hands with pain.
The day after tomorrow, the Eightfold Refining Blood Realm is almost invulnerable to any weakness. Against Xia Chen's attack, whether the man in green clothes blocks or not, there is no big difference. His entire body is a weapon, so he doesn't need to dodge either.
Bang! At the same time, the fingers of the man in green also touched Xiatian's chest. Xiatian only felt a violent shock throughout his body, and a powerful aura seemed to be about to penetrate through his chest into his body.
However, the mighty Golden Body's technique was operating, instantly giving Xia Chen's skin an incredibly powerful elasticity, suddenly rebounding the green-robed man's fingers.
"What?!" The man in green clothes was quite surprised, seemingly not expecting Xia Chen's physical body to be so strong. However, he quickly regained his composure, took a deep breath, and raised his right palm. His palm suddenly turned blood red, and in an instant, a flame burst out.
The day after tomorrow is really hot!
As the postnatal true fire bursts out, the surrounding temperature rises rapidly. This flame produced by the activation of true energy has a terrifying high temperature, and all substances will be burned to ashes.
Suddenly, the man in green clothes tensed his shoulders, and Xia Chen not only didn't let go of his attack, but instead changed his fist to a palm, fiercely grasping the man's shoulder.
"Looking for death!" The man in green clothes frowned, his blood circulation accelerated, and he exerted force on his shoulders, almost shattering Xia Chen's palm.
But Xia Chen's palms did not open, but instead remained as steady as a rock.
Suddenly, two cold lights burst out from Xia Chen's palms, splitting the air with a whistling sound, and transformed into two spiral-shaped drill bits that instantly tore through the green-robed man's clothes and skin, stabbing towards his internal organs.
This is exactly the move Xia Chen used to defeat Old Man Xu earlier, and it's even more ruthless.
The man in blue clothes was shocked, his eyes revealing an unbelievable expression. In the Eightfold Refining Blood Realm of tomorrow, true energy refines blood, and it's not that his body can't be broken, but this young man actually made him feel pain. What kind of technique is this?
But immediately, his blood throughout the body once again issued a wave of furious roar. Countless blood condensed, and actually formed two blocks of blood shields on his shoulders, which forcibly blocked the Sky Splitting Blade's edge.
Xia Chen's hands shook, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. The Split Heaven Blade was almost invincible, but today it had lost its effectiveness for the first time. The Eightfold Lotus was indeed powerful.
He was about to exert his strength again to break through the blood shield, when the man in green clothes had already slapped out a palm, and the flames in his palm suddenly turned into a flame sword, piercing towards Xia Chen's chest.
This has already exceeded the category of ordinary human skills, the sword has not arrived, Xia Chen has already felt the heat wave rushing towards him, as if it is about to melt him, and he can't help but be greatly shocked.
He withdrew one hand, with two fingers together, the tip of the finger cracked open again, and a foot-long blade protruded from his sleeve, stabbing towards the palm of the man in green.
" Ignite!" The man in green clothes remained unchanged, suddenly changing his palm to a claw, grasping the crack of the sky with one hand, and using his flesh palm to harden this invincible knife edge!
Xia Chen felt as if he had stabbed into a swamp, and wherever his hands touched, it was both slippery and rough, and the blade couldn't move forward.
The true fire of tomorrow blazed with unparalleled speed along the blade's edge, swiftly burning upwards and reaching Xia Chen's hand in the blink of an eye.
Xia Chen let out a loud cry and his other hand also released its grip on the green-robed man's shoulder, rapidly retreating backwards.
His fingers had a fierce flame burning on them, and it was slowly spreading towards his palm!
If it weren't for using true energy and Vajra Body to resist, his fingers would have already turned into ashes.
In an instant, Xia Chen used his true energy seven times, but the Post-Heaven True Fire showed no signs of extinguishing.
"It's useless, the true fire tomorrow is ignited by my true energy, and with your cultivation, it can't be extinguished at all. Just watch as this palm of yours turns to ashes!" The man in green clothes said calmly.
He stretched out his palm, and with a whooshing sound, scarlet flames suddenly blazed up in the center of his palm, jumping about and changing color, transforming from scarlet to deep purple in the blink of an eye!
Xia Chen's face changed, the crack in the sky flashed on his fingertips and suddenly transformed into seven identical ones, striking the True Fire of the Posterior Heaven at the same time.
The day after tomorrow, the true fire ignited at the moment, and a tremor shook for a moment. The flame instantly weakened and seemed to be extinguished.
"What a powerful true energy control!" The man in green clothes changed his expression, "Today I must not let you stay!"
He came silently, his hand tracing a straight purple line with flames, and with a light flick, a purple-red flame shot towards Xia Chen.
Xia Chen's knife edge on his hand split into seven equal parts again, and finally cut off the flames on his hand.
But he looked up to see that the purple flame flower had filled his entire field of vision, and in the heart of the fire, a grinning skull seemed to emerge, biting fiercely at Xia Chen.
True fire image!
Xia Chen's heart skipped a beat, this green-robed man was absolutely at the peak of the Eight Heavens, able to cultivate an illusion with his Post-Heaven True Flame, and was probably even stronger than Wu Feng of the Orthodox Sect.
Xia Chen's face turned frosty, and he let out a low growl. Suddenly, his entire body burst forth with snow-bright, heaven-rending blades of light. His hands transformed into two sharp blades over a foot long, and his true energy hissed out, condensing into blade after blade of icy light that slashed down on the heavenly fire behind him.
Hiss! Hiss!
The rear day true fire jumped, the temperature rapidly fell, Xia Chen's every stroke, all cut in the same place, the intensity was exactly the same.
This kind of true energy control power is extremely difficult, and only Xia Chen can achieve it.
"Break!" Xia Chen shouted loudly, and the last slash of his Heaven-Cleaving Blade was released, completely extinguishing the purple flames.
The flames died down, and then a man in green clothes appeared with one of his hands burning fiercely, as if riding the wind and waves, gathering the killing intent of heaven and earth, and pounced on Xia Chen fiercely.
"Very well, this technique of yours is quite unusual, I'll take it." The man in green clothes said calmly.
Xia Chen's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he suddenly threw out a complex hand gesture, fiercely meeting that terrifying large hand.
At the moment when the gesture was completed, a lightning bolt seemed to flash by, startling the man in green clothes as well.
Lightning Seal!
Bang!
Lei Ting's fist and Flame Emperor's palm collided heavily, producing a shockwave that instantly knocked down the silent walls of the alley.
Xia Chen's body suddenly flew backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
That man in green clothes was also unbearable, stumbling back several steps, and for a moment his chest surged with an unspeakable discomfort!
"You actually managed to hurt me, I'll let you die." The man in green clothes flashed a cold glint in his eyes, forcibly suppressing his rage, and silently approached Xia Chen.
