431: escape

The violent Qi wave directly knocked over the Yao Beasts in the room; even the Eighth-rank monsters fell to the ground, and many Seventh-rank Demonic Beasts directly spat out fresh blood.

A huge force came from his palm, and Lu Xingchen retreated three steps before steadying himself.

On the other hand, Chu Huai retreated dozens of steps, and the immense force on his body sent several Eighth-rank monsters flying.

Seeing this scene, all the Yao Beasts present were once again shocked.

"Lord Chu Huai is actually at a disadvantage! How is this possible? He is a core member of the Nether Dragon Clan!"

"Even if they were both eighth rank, eighth star Yao Beasts, the previous two were no match for Lord Chu Huai. Now, Lord Chu Huai is actually being suppressed by a little brat! What is the origin of this little brat?"

"Too terrifying! Such a Prodigy has appeared on the Tianyuan Continent; it's truly shocking!"

"Is it time to use that trump card?"

Chu Huai stood firm with the help of his subordinates, then stared blankly at Lu Xingchen, his eyes full of disbelief.

"How can he be so strong?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "You're not bad either, kid. Your Dragon Power is not much weaker than mine. It seems you've also Cultivated in the Dragon Clan's Dragon Vein."

Chu Huai said in a deep voice, "No, an ordinary Human Martial Artist would never possess such strong Physical Body strength! It's Dragon Bone! Besides your powerful Dragon Power, you also obtained a High Grade Dragon Bone in the Dragon Pool; otherwise, it would be impossible to be this strong!"

Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "You have quite sharp senses, kid. My contract partner is the Young Clan Leader of the contemporary Nether Dragon Clan, and I can't bring myself to kill members of the Nether Dragon Clan. If you submit to me now and allow me to leave a Soul Imprint in your sea of soul, I can guarantee your life."

Upon hearing this, Chu Huai's face showed indignation.

If one were to truly have a Soul Imprint left in their sea of soul by another, it would be no different from becoming a slave. The other party could destroy their sea of soul with just a thought, causing sudden death.

Unless it was a matter of life and death, no one would be willing to do so.

Chu Huai said in a deep voice, "Nonsense! How could the Young Clan Leader of the Nether Dragon Clan be willing to associate with people from the Sacred Dragon Palace? Lu Dazhuang, you don't think you've already won, do you?"

Hearing this, Lu Xingchen frowned and said in a deep voice, "Oh? You still have a trump card?"

Chu Huai nodded heavily, a hint of pride on his face.

"Forcing me to use this move, Lu Dazhuang, you can be proud! Minions, form the formation!"

At Chu Huai's command, the twenty-odd Eighth-rank monsters simultaneously clasped their hands together and formed a hand seal.

Green Demonic Power threads flew out from their chests, then merged into Chu Huai's body.

The Demonic Power within those Eighth-rank monsters was greatly diminished, while Chu Huai's Demonic Power significantly increased, breaking through the Eight-Star barrier and reaching the Nine-Star Peak.

Needless to say, they must have concentrated their Demonic Power on Chu Huai through a Spirit Formation.

To be able to form a Spirit Formation without condensing a Spiritual Seal, this Chu Huai indeed had some skill.

Sure enough, the Yao Beasts on Liuxing Continent were not so easy to deal with!

Lu Xingchen let out an exclamation.

"My goodness, what a Cloud Bat Formation! Chu Huai, you are quite a talent!"

Chu Huai snorted coldly, "Cloud Bat Formation? What's that? This is called Savage Formation, which I obtained in Liuxing Continent!"

Lu Xingchen shook his head slightly and chuckled, "Savage Formation it is, it doesn't matter! Since you're still not convinced, I'll beat you until you submit!"

Hearing this, Chu Huai's eyes darkened.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Lu Xingchen smiled faintly, "What's there to be afraid of? You have the Savage Formation as a trump card; don't I have other trump cards?"

Chu Huai was startled and said in a deep voice, "Impossible! No matter how exceptional your talent, you can't possibly have other trump cards. Do you think you're the Chosen One? Unless you summon the heavenly emperor seal now, prepare to die!"

Lu Xingchen shook his head slightly.

"I am indeed not the Chosen One, but I may not be much weaker than the Chosen One."

"Hahaha, Lu Dazhuang, you really brag without thinking! If I can't take you down today, my surname will be yours, Chu Huai!"

With that, he once again activated "Nether Claw" and attacked Lu Xingchen.

Lu Xingchen raised an eyebrow slightly and likewise struck out with a palm, releasing "Mountain Splitting Seal" again.

At the same time, he activated "Vajra Barrier," consuming twenty percent of his blood Qi in exchange for high defense.

Their palms collided, and Lu Xingchen was directly blasted backward, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood in mid-air.

Once the Realm reached Martial Venerable, the gap between each minor Realm was enormous. Although Lu Xingchen temporarily raised his Realm to Eight-Star Martial Venerable by relying on various secret techniques, he was still no match for Chu Huai.

In fact, with his strength, directly confronting a Nine-Star Martial Venerable would not be a big problem.

But this Chu Huai was once a core member of the Nether Dragon Clan, equally talented, and also possessed the ability to fight above his own Realm.

It was already very difficult for Lu Xingchen to withstand a blow from him.

But this was not Lu Xingchen's limit; he hadn't yet used Word Spirit Power, Fused Spirit Fire, or the immortal slaying sword.

However, Lu Xingchen did not intend to fight Chu Huai to the death here.

This was Chu Huai's lair, after all, surrounded by his people.

There were more than twenty Eighth-rank monsters in this one room alone; who knew if there were other rooms, and who knew how many Yao Beasts' power his "Savage Formation" could aggregate.

Now, while he had just formed the "Savage Formation," his strength had greatly increased, and his confidence was a bit inflated; it was a good opportunity to retreat!

Chu Huai landed a palm strike, but before he could utter a harsh word, he saw Lu Xingchen use the impact force of his claw to directly smash through the window and escape out of the room.

Chu Huai was slightly stunned, then couldn't help but curse.

"Damn it, this kid is so arrogant, I thought he was going to fight me to the death. Turns out he was looking for an opportunity to escape! Despicable Human Race brat! Chase him!"

The many Yao Beasts in the room also broke through the windows and chased after Lu Xingchen.

Chu Huai also deactivated the "Savage Formation" and rushed to the front.

"Word Spirit, Instant Flash!"

Lu Xingchen, who had escaped the room, immediately let out a low cry, and his movement speed doubled.

Indeed, under Jiang Taishen's careful guidance, he was already able to skillfully use this Word Spirit.

He was certain that after using "Instant Flash," even if Chu Huai was an eighth rank, eighth star Nether Dragon, he would absolutely not be able to catch up to him.

But what he cared about more was Lin Xu.

After using "Instant Flash," his speed was already on par with Senior Brother Lin Xu's speed during their last encounter.

But no one knew if he had used his full strength then, or if he had made any progress these days?

To catch up to him in speed, besides "Instant Flash," more methods would be needed to be safe.

"Damn, why is this kid so fast? Is he on drugs?" Chu Huai, who was chasing behind, cursed under his breath.
