Chapter 118: The Astonishing Range of the Black Light (Third Update)

  Not far away, the Silver Electric Ox and the Thorny Wolf simultaneously let out a loud roar, one on the left and one on the right, charging towards Ye Chen. One was as fast as lightning, with an intimidating momentum, while the other was like black smoke, with agile movements.

  Rumble!

  The ancient tree was knocked over, its roots pulled out of the ground, sending a massive amount of mud flying through the air.

  Ye Chen took a step forward and leaped into mid-air, counterattacking with a slash of sword energy.

  With a loud thud, the Thorny Demon Wolf's hind legs were deeply slashed, its body quickly stumbled and fell to the ground, sliding out for over a hundred meters due to inertia before finally crashing into another ancient tree.

  The Thorned Wolf Demon slowly got up, shaking its dazed head and staring at Ye Chen with a hint of fear.

  This human's breath doesn't seem very powerful, but so far, even with the help of Silver Thunder Bull, they haven't been able to take him down. On the contrary, they've ended up looking like fools and injuring their hind legs. If things keep going this way, it's likely that not only will they fail to defeat the opponent, but also exhaust themselves and Silver Thunder Bull to death.

  The silver electric cow also had a retreating intention, but since the thorny wolf hadn't retreated yet, how could it retreat.

  "The power of the Surging Cloud Sword Technique is more or less understood, now it's time to settle them." Previously, Ye Chen had not urged on the Half-Step Sword Intention, and those sword auras were just ordinary sword auras.

  Turning around, Ye Chen swung his sword twice, and two sword auras that had merged with the Half-Step Sword Intent flew out to slash.

  Pffft! Pffft!

  Yīn Diàn Yāo Niú and Jīng Jié Mó Láng each had an additional sword hole on their foreheads, their massive bodies crashing to the ground like a mountain of gold toppling jade pillars, completely devoid of breath.

  The corpse of the demon beast that lost its demonic energy protection was not as hard as imagined, and it was easily cut open. Inside, there were a total of four inner elixirs the size of a bowl mouth, each worth 10,000 taels of gold. Ye Chen collected them into his storage ring, and then some other valuable demon beast materials were also collected by Ye Chen one after another.

  After doing all this, Ye Chen stood up straight, his eyes gazing towards the deepest part of the silent mountain range.

  That is the real forbidden land, decades ago a major force sent masters to go deep into it to find some rare and precious herbs, unfortunately encountered a seventh-level demon ghost-faced cow, more than 100 people only one person escaped, but died in just a few days, the reason was that the body's demonic energy was too strong, went mad and died, since then, no one dared to enter.

  Seventh-level demon beast, Ye Chen couldn't imagine that it was equivalent to a strong star extreme realm. Not to mention Ye Chen, even the masters of the five major sects wouldn't be able to withstand its casual attack. However, whether it's true or false is still uncertain, after all, apart from rumors, who has seen it with their own eyes? The only person who survived decades ago was already mentally unstable when he came out and couldn't be counted on.

  Shaking his head, Ye Chen's figure shifted to the side and leaped onto a nearby ancient tree over ten zhang tall. In a few flashes, he vanished without a trace.

  Not long after Ye Chen left, a figure emerged from the fog.

  Bang!

  His foot lightly touched the ground, and the scar-faced middle-aged man saw the two-headed beast's corpse lying on the ground. He couldn't help but curse, "It was hard to find out where this kid went, who would have thought that he actually went deep into the Silent Mountain Range? The fog here is thick and heavy, making it impossible for human eyes to see clearly. Within a hundred steps, no aura can be detected. Otherwise, how could he leave safely? He must be killed on the spot."

  This man was exactly half a month ago, watching the ranking competition of Liuyun Sect's inner disciples, Knife Scar Middle-aged Zhu Lieyang, who is also the Intelligence Elder of Ziyang Sect.

  He dispatched his subordinates to guard at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, preparing to wait for Ye Chen to go out alone and kill him in one fell swoop.

  Little did he know that man's calculations are not as good as heaven's, after Ye Chen went down the mountain, he plunged into the quiet mountain range and headed straight for the depths. By the time Zhu Lieyang received the news, it was already too late, and he could only follow in and try his luck to see if he could bump into each other.

  "You're lucky this time, kid, but next time you'll definitely die." Zhu Lieyang's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

  Roar!

  Just then, a loud and sonorous howl rose up, and with it the sky suddenly darkened, as if a vast expanse of black clouds had swept in to obscure the radiant sunlight.

  "What a powerful demonic aura, at least it's a sixth-level demon beast!" Zhu Lieyang's face showed fear, and he hastily retreated.

  Far away!

  A thick, bucket-sized black light shot out, shattering trees and piercing mountains along the way. The earth was swept away by the residual waves of the black light, creating a deep and straight trench.

  Wu Guang's speed was too fast, Zhu Lieyang had no time to dodge, he let out a loud roar, and his body suddenly rose with intense light, protecting himself tightly.

  Bang!

  Intense light shattered, Zhu Lieyang's seven orifices bled, his whole body's clothes were tattered and torn.

  "You little beast, this demon must have been attracted by you." Zhu Lieyang arrived silently and wouldn't attract the demon's attention. With a bit of thought, he realized that it was Ye Chen's battle with the demon that was too loud, attracting stronger demons from deeper in the Silent Mountains, and he became the scapegoat.

  Ignoring his heavily injured body, Zhu Lieyang's true energy frantically surged through him, transforming his body into a brilliant beam of light that shot off into the distance. At the same time, he tossed a dark red medicinal pellet into his mouth.

  After a moment, the master of the dark light finally appeared in the distance, its enormous, winding body standing upright in the center of the mountain range, dozens of meters tall, and it was a gigantic black snake.

  At this moment, if the fog disperses, someone looking down from the sky will discover a stunning scene.

  A ravine stretched tens of miles away, straight to here, which means that the Wugang was shot from tens of miles away. Such a terrifying range has never been heard or seen before. If it were any closer, whether Zhu Lieyang could survive is still a question, after all, the distance is too far, and the attack power of Wugang must have decreased somewhat.

  The dark giant python saw its breath disappear, and its huge head bumped against the nearby mountain peak. The mountain peak trembled a few times, and several large cracks quickly crawled across the rock wall, making a scratching sound.

  The towering upper body of a black giant python slithers back and forth, knocking down ancient trees one by one.

  ……

  Among the countless mountains, there is a magnificent valley with lush trees and numerous lakes of various sizes scattered all over, just like the stars in the sky.

  In a courtyard beside a certain lake, three girls were sitting there chatting.

  "Miss Ji, did you know about the inner disciple ranking competition held by Liuyun Sect more than half a month ago?" The plump-faced girl in green suddenly said.

  The stunningly beautiful and elegantly refined young girl said lightly: "Is that so? It seems like there's no one worth noticing among the inner disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect!"

  The beautiful girl next to him nodded and said, "Liu Yun Sect is ranked last among the five major sects. The so-called top ten inner disciples are only slightly stronger than our Jade Emerald Valley's inner disciples. Our Jade Emerald Valley's top ten inner disciples have the strength of core disciples in Liu Yun Sect, which can't be compared at all."

  The round-faced girl said: "I heard that this time two geniuses emerged, one named Meng Chong and the other named Ye Chen, both have the level of a core disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect."

  "Yè chén!" The beautiful girl and the pretty girl looked at the round-faced girl in surprise.

  The round-faced girl looked puzzled and asked: "What's wrong?"

  The beautiful young girl asked: "How is Ye Chen?"

  "He defeated Meng Chong, the first of the top ten disciples of the previous inner door, and took the first place. His strength is said to be very strong."

  The extremely beautiful girl was slightly surprised, but then didn't care much about it. What's the difference between being the first of the top ten inner disciples in the Flowing Cloud Sect and one of the four core disciples in the Emerald Valley? The two are fundamentally incomparable.

  The round-faced girl said, "That Ye Chen not only has great strength, but also grasped the half-step sword intent. Now in Tianfeng Country, everyone is talking about him."

  "What?!"

  The beautiful girl and the stunningly beautiful girl looked at each other in disbelief, subconsciously thinking that they were just namesakes and couldn't possibly be the Ye Chen they knew.
