60: Bashan Sect

On the way, Jiang Chen checked his panel.

Killing Value: 78

Cultivation Value: 530

He actually had another 530 points of Cultivation Value.

Jiang Chen immediately added them to his Spiritual Qi Cultivation.

His Cultivation Realm instantly broke through!

The Mental Energy that had already condensed in the Soul Devouring Ring was also refined by Jiang Chen using the Great Wilderness Emperor Yang Art.

Although he could feel his Mental Energy increasing, his Realm should not have broken through yet.

Physical Body Cultivation: Xiantian Realm Third Layer (Immaculate)

Spiritual Qi Cultivation: Houtian Realm Fifth Layer (393/500)

Divine Soul Cultivation: One Cauldron

As for the martial arts scroll, Jiang Chen was not in a hurry to open it.

The current situation did not allow Jiang Chen to deliberate slowly.

Although the martial arts scroll could be opened an infinite number of times, each choice was crucial and absolutely could not be easily wasted.

Whoosh!

After his Spiritual Qi Cultivation broke through, his Teng Snake Step also sped up by a few points, and the duration it could be sustained became longer.

Finally, Jiang Chen followed the direction of the black Qi waterfall and eventually found the location of the Demonic Den.

It was in a relatively narrow cliff canyon.

Jiang Chen stood on the edge of the cliff, looking into the depths of the canyon, vaguely seeing a black Qi vortex gate that was constantly absorbing the black waterfall, and was gradually growing larger.

At this rate, the Demonic Den would form in at most half an hour.

At the same time, countless demonic Qi, transformed into fierce gale-force winds, were erupting from the bottom of the canyon.

“Hmm?”

Jiang Chen gazed intently downwards.

However, he found that he couldn't see the situation inside at all, and his hearing was obscured by countless wind sounds.

He couldn't ascertain the situation below.

“Right, try the Divine Soul.”

Although Jiang Chen had never cultivated Divine Soul Cultivation Techniques or secret arts, with his own Comprehension Ability, he could roughly perform some rudimentary applications.

Jiang Chen closed his eyes.

His Divine Soul power was released, and even these noisy gales did not affect his Divine Soul.

Despite the howling and bloodthirsty sounds within, Jiang Chen's Divine Soul was as firm as a mountain, not wavering in the slightest.

Soon, Jiang Chen felt as if his vision was sinking, and he discovered five figures hidden on the cliff face.

These people concealed their Qi, lurking in the darkness, like waiting for prey to jump down on its own.

“Five in total, not too many.”

“They are all Houtian Realm strength. If I'm fast, I can blow them all up.”

These five people were clearly five of the Twelve Butchers from the Tian Po Sect. Adding Tang Kun, who was just killed, that made six.

Just as Chu Yun had said before, they usually acted in groups.

After all, these people below were all experts from the Tian Po Sect, and no one knew if they had any powerful methods. Knowing oneself and one's enemy leads to victory in every battle.

This was the experience Jiang Chen had summarized from hunting; he couldn't underestimate any prey.

Jiang Chen drew the long saber from his back, leaped, and performed the Teng Snake Step. His figure, like a cunning ghost snake, rapidly descended along one side of the cliff.

The cliffs on both sides of the canyon were only about three zhang apart, which was relatively narrow.

After all, an expert with a weapon could easily sweep within a three-zhang range.

Thud!

When Jiang Chen's figure landed, the five people hidden at the bottom of the canyon moved simultaneously.

The five people's powerful combat awareness was clearly honed through countless battles.

But it was useless.

Jiang Chen's footwork was already at a top-tier level. Coupled with the Teng Snake Step, facing the encirclement attacks launched by the five people from different directions, Jiang Chen remained calm and quickly rushed in front of one of them.

That person's gaze was clearly somewhat surprised.

He hadn't expected Jiang Chen's speed to be so fast.

But even if they met head-on, he had absolute confidence that he could take down Jiang Chen!

After all, his Overlord Saber was best at cleaving enemies into minced meat head-on.

Clang!

Jiang Chen swung his saber.

It collided with the opponent's great saber. The opponent was clearly also skilled with heavy weapons.

Neither side used any techniques; it was all pure strength.

“Boom!”

Jiang Chen's cleaver met no resistance. Not only was the power it unleashed immense, but the speed of his strike was also extremely fast.

The enemy was cut in half at the waist.

Flesh and blood rained down with a whooshing sound.

A bloody intestine even hung on a sharp rock.

At this moment, two agile experts had already approached Jiang Chen, one in front and one behind.

They were two women.

Both used twin daggers.

One in front, one behind, one stabbed at Jiang Chen's throat, the other at his lower body.

Jiang Chen blocked the lower body attack with his long saber.

He punched directly at the twin daggers aimed at his throat.

The woman holding the twin daggers sneered in her heart.

Truly, ignorance is bliss.

The Heaven-Piercing Daggers we Cultivate can instantly pierce through even a Xiantian Realm Body Cultivator like you.

The woman couldn't help but increase her strength.

Ding.

This was the sound of the twin daggers striking the cleaver at the lower body.

Ding!

With a crisp sound, the woman, who had been so confident that this move would pierce Jiang Chen's fist, could only watch as her sharp daggers were shattered by the immense force.

“What?”

“Boom!”

Jiang Chen's punch broke the twin daggers, and its momentum did not decrease, directly smashing the woman's head.

Blood splattered.

At the same time, his left foot also kicked the cleaver fiercely.

The cleaver transformed into a cold light, splitting the woman who had ambushed his lower body into two.

Although Jiang Chen believed that his Physical Body could also withstand the attacks on his lower body, he dared not take that risk.

Splash! Splash!

Three people were successively blown apart by Jiang Chen.

The remaining two also quickly stopped, exchanging glances, clearly showing disbelief.

What kind of monster was this guy?

Suddenly, one of them seemed to realize something and exclaimed.

“You... you're a Body Cultivator?”

“You're from the Ba Shan Sect!”

The two suddenly realized.

The Jiang Chen before them must be from the Ba Shan Sect.

When the Elder sent them to cooperate with the Ba Shan Sect before, he had reminded them to be careful, but they hadn't expected that the other party would actually dare to make a move. This was an attempt to start a war with their Tian Po Sect!

“Ba Shan Sect?”

Jiang Chen frowned.

He had heard that name before.

He even had a Body Refining foundation written by someone from the Ba Shan Sect.

“Are you Ba Shan Sect trying to discard the donkey after it's done its work?!”

The two were clearly very angry.

They hadn't expected the Ba Shan Sect to do such a despicable thing.

“Hmm? Is the Ba Shan Sect involved in this?”

Jiang Chen didn't know much about the Ba Shan Sect.

But in the Great Lan Dynasty, to establish a School, one had to have some solid foundations.

Listening to the two of them, the Ba Shan Sect should be a School specialized in Body Refining.

Of course, Jiang Chen had no intention of answering their questions.

After all, he wasn't from the Ba Shan Sect.

With a tap of his foot, Spiritual Qi flowed throughout his body. Jiang Chen's figure was like a nimble snake, constantly moving and changing direction. After three to five exchanges of movements, he suddenly struck one of them with his saber.

At the moment he was struck, he finally understood why the three people before him, knowing they were about to be cleaved, didn't try to dodge.

Because they simply couldn't dodge.

Splash!

His head, along with his body, burst open like a ripe watermelon.

The other person was very decisive. He shattered the cliff wall beside him with a palm strike, sending countless broken rocks flying towards Jiang Chen, while he himself quickly stepped into the air and soared towards the top of the cliff.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen plunged his long saber horizontally into the cliff wall.

He took out the Dragon Horn Bow, nocked a refined iron arrow, and aimed at the figure that was constantly changing its form as it rushed towards the top of the cliff.

Whoosh!

Spiritual Qi, wrapped around the arrow, swiftly broke through countless broken rocks and shot upwards.

That person used all his strength, performing his movement technique to its extreme.

As long as he escaped this canyon, he would live!

His strong belief, coupled with the footwork he had mastered over many years of cultivation, also gave him great confidence.

Finally, the end of the canyon was right before his eyes. He kicked off the cliff with his foot.

His figure rushed up from the cliff, then quickly rolled to the side and landed on flat ground.

He was saved!

Just as this person was filled with joy, suddenly there was a whooshing sound.

An arrow instantly pierced his glabella.

He widened his eyes.

Before he died, he screamed in his heart, “How can this arrow make such a big turn?!”

“Ding... Killing Value +1”

“Ding... Cultivation Value +80”

Receiving the kill notification, Jiang Chen put away the Dragon Horn Bow, pulled his long saber from the rock wall, and with a whoosh, leaped into the bottom of the cliff.

Bang!

At this moment, the bottom of the cliff was already filled with demonic Qi, with visibility less than ten meters.

Outside the dense demonic Qi, there was also a Qi vortex gate nearly three zhang high.

He could vaguely see the abyss.

“Squeak, squeak...”

Although he couldn't see with his eyes, Jiang Chen's five senses were enhanced, along with his One Cauldron Realm Divine Soul.

He quickly realized that many demons were hidden in this dense, black demonic fog!

However, Jiang Chen was not surprised but rather delighted, gripping the cleaver in his hand.

“Excellent.”

“So many demons!”
