Chapter 121: Life and Death Crisis

  Everyone watched him disappear into the black fog, feeling quite tense and also quite expectant.

  The maze maker's restrictions can indeed cause people to become lost, but all prohibitions have a source, and the source is the core of the prohibition arrangement. As long as it can be found, various methods can be used to crack it.

  The innate sensory line was trembling slightly, but it was very stable. As long as this thread of sensing light that was finer than a hair was present, no matter where the battle went, Mrs. Sang could sense it.

  In the dark fog, although it was as black as ink, from time to time a faint golden light could be seen flashing, apparently, Zhan Li had not encountered any danger and was searching for the source of the seal with all his might.

  But in an instant, the innate sensory line suddenly shook violently, and the black fog churned fiercely, with a low, stern roar and the screeching of black creatures coming from within.

  "Big Brother!" Madam Sang shouted loudly and pulled with all her might, almost pulling War Lei out.

  The innate sensory line was suddenly pulled straight, and the end that entered the black fog seemed to be connected to a thousand-pound heavy object, and it couldn't be pulled at all.

  A faint black air suddenly appeared, rotating and extending upwards along the induction line. The induction line was originally very bright, but it became flickering and weak as soon as it was entwined by the black air, as if it were about to disappear.

  "Not good!" Mrs. Sang's face changed, her empty left hand pointed a little, and a pre-heavenly true fire burst out, turning into a long line of fire that wrapped around the black air, wanting to burn it all up.

  The Innate True Fire was incredibly powerful, but the black energy didn't flinch in the slightest. As it entwined itself with the Innate True Fire, not only did it fail to ignite, but it even seemed to be suppressing the Innate True Fire instead.

  "Divine intent!" Madame Sang was shocked, "This dark energy contains the power of divine intent!"

  "What?!" The cultivator's face changed greatly, the divine sense was a power that only dual-cultivation realm and above cultivators possessed. Could it be that the person who set up the maze restriction was actually a dual-cultivation realm cultivator?!

  "Madam Sang, I'll lend you a helping hand!" Xuanlingzi shouted loudly, and another strand of Innate True Fire shot out, entwining itself around that black energy.

  Two innate true fires, the power instantly doubled, but the divine thought in the black air also suddenly strengthened, and it could actually withstand it. The speed at which the innate sensory line was eroded slowed down.

  In the distance, the black fog churned even more violently, with fierce battle cries echoing far and near. From time to time, flames of innate true fire burst out, as if something was wrapped around it, unable to escape along the innate sensing line.

  Whoa! The five innate true fires shot out simultaneously, and the other five divine communication cultivators also took action. The seven innate true fires merged into one place, forming a dazzling fire line that was absolutely unparalleled in power, incinerating everything.

  However, the black gas still did not disperse and instead simultaneously resisted the seven First Heaven True Flames, only to fall at a disadvantage. The opposing sides were now deadlocked, unable to encroach upon each other's lines of Heavenly Sense.

  Seven people looked at each other, their eyes were shocked, but they could still remain calm. This spiritual thought was strong, but compared to the real divine power, it was much weaker, apparently not seriously injured, or there were other reasons.

  The truly divine and unparalleled divine thought can defeat seven people's combined strength in an instant.

  "Who are you? Why confine us? Are you going to be an enemy of the four major sects?" Xuanlingzi shouted loudly, his voice echoing far away.

  No one replied, but a heavy trampling sound suddenly came from the dark fog, and countless huge and ferocious shadows appeared and disappeared, as if another wave of poisonous attacks was coming.

  The faces of the seven people changed instantly. Now that they were resisting this wisp of divine thought with all their might, how could they still spare the energy to resist other poisons?

  The disciples' faces turned even paler. Although Xia Chen had just rallied everyone's strength to sweep away the black creature in the sky, which was quite intimidating, after all, the eight divine cultivators were the absolute main force. If they were tied up, the consequences would be unthinkable.

  But if all seven of them let go now, Zhan Li is likely to be unable to escape from the dark fog again, and it's really a dilemma.

  The footsteps grew urgent, the black fog rolled in, once again closing in on the small square, compressing the space of the crowd, a foul wind blew by, bringing waves of nauseating air.

  "Split into three people, go and block the poison, protect the disciples. I, Fan Shixiong, Sang Furen, and Xuanlingzi will continue to confront Shen Nian, we must rescue Zhan Xiong." Li Chen Dong said.

  The other six people looked solemn, nodded, and now there is no way, can only divide the troops into two routes. Just now, seven people joined forces but couldn't rescue Zhan Li, let alone when only four people are left, they can only delay time and wait for a turn of events.

  Sun Ming Sheng, Jiao Yun Fei and Jin Da Zhao were about to retreat when Xia Chen suddenly stepped forward and said: "Master Li, Master Fan, seniors, I don't know if this junior can be of any help?"

  Seven people were stunned, and then they suddenly lost their smiles.

  "Xia Chen, you and the other disciples just need to withstand the poison," Sun Ming Sheng said. "The divine sense can only be countered by us, your power is too weak, even if you come up, it won't have any effect."

  "Not bad, Xia Chen, we know your intention, but if you come up because of weakness, it will become the focus of God's mind attack. We still have to take care of you and can't help but neglect other things. You just need to do your own part." Xuan Lingzi also said.

  "The true fire palm technique you just used to gather everyone's strength was great, it can be combined with ours to eliminate the toxins. If we can escape, your contribution will be the greatest." Jin Dazhao laughed and said.

  Several people, in order not to hurt Xia Chen's self-esteem, tried their best to dissuade him with gentle words, but they didn't think so in their hearts. The power of divine sense is fundamentally on a different level from the acquired one. Although this young man has an extraordinary appearance, he is still too immature after all.

  "This guy wasn't satisfied with the previous show of force? He still wanted to help the divine cultivator, but he was no match for him and ended up getting knocked back. A small number of disciples watched coldly from the sidelines, their faces expressionless, but secretly delighted."

  They had just been protected by Xia Chen, and they were very grateful in their hearts. However, deep down, they were filled with jealousy, unwilling to let Xia Chen surpass them too much. It's really true that people's thoughts are complicated.

  "Two masters, seniors, I have the Thunderbolt Technique, which can suppress all evil toxins. If we combine our powers, who knows, maybe we can counter the Divine Thought. Why don't we give it a try?" Xia Chen said calmly.

  He thought for half a day and although he didn't have much confidence, he felt it was worth a try.

  "Huh? Thunderbolt Technique?" Li Chen Dong and Fan Yun were about to speak up to dissuade him, but upon hearing this, their eyes lit up, and they said, "If you can gather everyone's power like you did just now, it might be worth a try. Besides, we'll be by your side, so you won't be in any danger."

  Sun Ming-sheng and others looked displeased, thinking that you two old guys are still favoring your own disciples. At this time, you still don't forget to let him show off. Let this kid suffer a bit, so he won't be too proud with his sharp edges exposed.

  "Please, everyone, lend me a hand!" Xia Chen said loudly. He raised his right hand, with his index and middle fingers together, and immediately burst out a shining sharp edge. It was the Sky-Splitting Edge.

  In the cracks of the sky, there is a faintly visible thread of light that is even more dazzling, which is the power of thunder. After breaking through the Eightfold Refining Blood Realm, Xia Chen can already roughly merge the power of Thunder Seal into the Sky-Cracking Blade.

  The numerous disciples had already witnessed the power of Xia Chen's technique, so they didn't hesitate and immediately rushed over, slapping their palms on Xia Chen's chest and back, transmitting true energy without reservation.

  Xia Chen's face suddenly turned bright red, and he once again felt the sensation of being on the verge of exploding. A massive amount of true energy surged out from his body, pouring out from his fingertips, bringing with it the power of thunder as the Heaven-Defying Finger grew longer and larger at an alarming rate. The dazzling intensity was such that even a Divine Master would be unable to gaze directly at it.

  Hiss! Xia Chen's fingertips fluttered, and the sky-splitting blade immediately cut through the surrounding air, emitting a heart-shaking sonic boom. Countless ripples of flame spread from the blade in layers, like water waves, as if fire was born from water, thunder from water, and light from thunder, presenting an extremely bizarre scene.

  In the dazzling sharpness, Xia Chen remained expressionless and silently took out the treasure of Lei Ting Ru Yi, then pointed at the innate sensing line wrapped in black air.

  Lei Ting's power increased by at least more than double, which is equivalent to doubling the true energy of most disciples again, and its power is almost unimaginable.

  Several divine transcendence cultivators' faces changed immediately, and they suddenly felt a sense of trepidation, as if the sharpness on Xia Chen's fingertips was enough to harm them. This was originally impossible, as the difference between the acquired realm and the divine transcendence realm was immeasurable, but now the seven people actually felt threatened by a single acquired eighth-level disciple.

  Bang! The moment the sharp edge of the sky touched the black air, it emitted a deafening thunderous sound, instantly turning into countless sharp and small fragments that plunged into the black air, cutting through the divine thoughts inside with all its might.

  That faint black energy had been steady as a mountain, even when subjected to the burning of the seven First Heaven True Flames, it remained unmoving. However, at this moment, it was violently churning, as if it had received a fatal attack.

  In the midst of turmoil, the dark energy rapidly dissipated from the Innate Sense Line, and countless sparks of sharpness could be seen flashing by, pursuing and consuming the dark energy.

  Seven divine transcendence cultivators widened their eyes in unison, never expecting that the divine thought they couldn't suppress with combined efforts would rapidly retreat at Xia Chen's single point.

  Xia Chen was both shocked and delighted, never having thought that the combination of Lie Tian's sharpness and Lei Feng's seal, plus Lei Feng's intention, would have such power.

  "Dare to hurt my divine thought, I'll refine you into a poisonous corpse puppet with clear and sober divine intelligence, making you unable to live or die!" Suddenly, a sharp and fine voice that seemed to come from the nine hells rang out.

  The sound was unclear where it came from, and it wasn't loud, but everyone heard it clearly, and could clearly perceive the hint of pain in the sound.

  Xia Chen's heart sank suddenly, his whole body turned icy cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and at the same time, he felt like he was being stared down by a ferocious beast, sensing a great crisis, a matter of life and death!

  A large black hand suddenly stretched out from the clouds in the sky, just like a giant claw growing out of the sky, with an overwhelming momentum, fiercely grasping towards Xia Chen.
