Chapter 172 Contra

The big black bird carried Chen Xuan and Xiao Wu, soaring in the night sky, flapping its wings, and flew towards the exit of the Soul Beast Forest.

Two hours later, the giant bird flew out of the Soul Beast Forest. The end of the earth was no longer a forest, but a rocky area.

At night, the moonlight was like water and the stars were twinkling, and the white light fell on the dead rocky area. It was so quiet that there was not a single reptile.

Chen Xuan retracted his gaze, patted the big bird's back, let it land, and fly into the woods below.

"Chen Xuan, there is an ambush there." Xiao Wu looked solemn, with a hint of worry on her pretty face.

When she transformed into a human, she lost her 100,000 years of cultivation, but her mental strength was still there. She was extremely sensitive to dangerous auras, which was innate.

"Ah."

Chen Xuan nodded, feeling the situation was difficult, and said, "I didn't expect that they would even get involved in this place."

This exit is extremely remote and far away, nearly a hundred miles away from Wuhun City. Ordinary people would never take this road.

Chen Xuan underestimated them. Those people from the Spirit Hall could actually think of this place. I'm afraid this entire soul beast forest is surrounded.

However, he didn't believe that those people were really so generous. There were definitely not many manpower stationed here, and more forces should be gathered on the road that must be taken back to the Star Dou Great Forest.

"We'll know after a try." Chen Xuan pondered and decided to let the shadow clone go first to test the situation.

"The art of shadow clone."

He did as he said. He quickly formed a seal and with a bang, white mist rose and an avatar appeared out of thin air. He looked and dressed exactly like him.

Xiao Wu had seen it before, but when she saw this soul skill again, she was still shocked. Even with a hundred thousand years of spiritual power, she was unable to see through the reality of this clone. There was not a single flaw, as if it were a real entity.

"Let's go, we'll follow behind." Chen Xuan said, patting the big bird and motioning him to follow.

The giant black bird flapped its wings and flew low, carrying the two of them through the woods.

The shadow clone took away 50% of the chakra. In other words, its strength is the same as the original body.

Chen Xuan's shadow clone rushed out of the exit, stepped into a new area, and moved away from the forest behind him.

Electric arcs surrounded his body, crackling, and the little white worm of thunder magic was activated again, with its speed and strength more than tripling.

Even if one is only at the Soul King level, ordinary Soul Emperors may not be able to catch up.

Chen Xuan's shadow clone was covered in arcs of electricity and flashing light, like a human-shaped lightning, rushing out hundreds of meters away, so fast that it was blurred.

Chi!
At this moment, there was a sudden change in the sky. A huge sword fell down. The sword body was as broad as a rainbow and as green as jade.

The green sword fell from the sky and smashed into the ground. With a bang, the earth shook. A beam of light rose from where the shadow clone was, and then a huge explosion occurred. The rocks were turned into powder, the stones melted, and a small area was razed to the ground.

In the soul beast forest several hundred meters away, the ground was shaking slightly, and the old trees, flowers and plants were all swaying, affected by the aftermath.

Chen Xuan's face looked grim. He was standing on the back of the big bird and could clearly see the explosion in the distance. The real body of the wind sword was so big, like a small mountain. Just one strike razed a hundred-meter area to the ground.

An attack of that magnitude is so powerful that it can easily wipe out a forest. His strength is definitely above that of a Soul Saint.

Xiao Wu's body was trembling, beads of sweat were sliding down her pretty face, and she couldn't help but clutch the corner of Chen Xuan's clothes.

Her perception of danger was far greater than Chen Xuan's. She could clearly feel that in that place among the rocks, there was an extremely powerful aura, as terrifying as a ferocious beast.

"Yes... it's Contra." Xiao Wu spoke with trembling lips. Chen Xuan's expression froze, and his body suddenly became cold, with a chill down his spine.

He would not doubt Xiao Wu's judgment, but instead trusted her very much, knowing the power of a hundred thousand years of mental strength.

Chen Xuan couldn't believe it, and it was even more horrifying when he thought about it carefully. Even in such a remote place, there were Soul Douluos coming to ambush. How many powerful people were dispatched?

Things were becoming very dangerous. He couldn't imagine whether a Titled Douluo was stationed on the only way back to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Chen Xuan couldn't make a conclusion. Every Titled Douluo in the Spirit Hall had his own duties to perform and couldn't leave the Spirit City easily. But that crazy woman Bibi Dong didn't play by the rules and could do anything. Without Qian Daoliu, she would only be crazier than she is now.

"The rabbit is indeed here. Go and inform them immediately. The rest of you, follow me to surround this place."

From afar, a deep and majestic voice was heard, as if it was intended, and it spread into the Soul Beast Forest.

brush!
Immediately afterwards, many figures rushed out from the rocky area at an extremely fast speed, sprinting towards the forest and soon approached.

There were eight of them, their strength was unknown, five of them were wearing light blue Taoist robes, their eyes were blindfolded with a silk ribbon, and they were approaching with swords in their hands.

There was also someone wearing purple clothes and coming with his hands behind his back. He blocked the exit together with the five men, leaving no gap.

This is the only exit here, with a ten-meter-wide gate. The rest of the place is blocked by a wall, fifty meters high and covered with iron nets. Ordinary people cannot climb over it at all.

"Master Feng is so heroic and has foresight. As expected, the rabbit has come here." The three men in purple laughed loudly, wearing cloaks and covering their faces, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

This entire forest is enclosed by a wall, with only this one exit. Now that the way out has been blocked by the eight of them, no matter how powerful the people inside are, they still can't escape.

"People inside, hand over the rabbit and I will spare your lives." Feng Bailong spoke, his voice deep and majestic.

He held a long sword in his hand. The sword had a broad blade, as green and juicy as jade, with clear lines, crystal clear and translucent, as if it was made of the finest jade.

Chen Xuan's face darkened as he recognized the sword. It was the sword of the man who had just attacked the shadow clone. At the same time, he thought of a lot of things. The only person who could work for the Spirit Hall and had a sword-type spirit could be the Fengjian Sect.

However, he never expected that even Feng Baichen, the leader of the Fengjian Sect, would take action. Bibi Dong was really making a big fuss.

"I'll say it again, hand over that rabbit and I'll spare your lives. Don't be ungrateful!" Feng Bailong spoke in a deep voice, his brows furrowed into a shape of a "川" (川).

Decades of caution have allowed him to survive crisis after crisis. Since those people were able to take away a hundred thousand year old soul beast, their strength must be extraordinary, so he needs to be careful.

The three purple-robed men laughed loudly and said, "Master Feng, why waste your breath? Just wait for me to follow me and charge in. Are you afraid of an ambush?"

The three men had contempt in their eyes and confidence on their faces. They really didn't know what to be afraid of. They put their hands behind their backs, stepped through the gate, and entered the soul beast forest.

"Find the right opportunity and take Xiao Wu away first." Chen Xuan said to the big bird beside him one hundred meters away.

The giant black bird nodded its head, flew into the air, and flew away from the spot with Xiao Wu on its back.

"Chen Xuan, you have to be careful!" At this point, Xiao Wu could only give such advice. Compared to those pursuers, she was too weak now and could do nothing.

She couldn't bear it and felt very painful. She didn't want Chen Xuan to stay behind to cover her just to give her the opportunity to leave.

"Chen Xuan, you must survive." Xiao Wu hesitated to speak, and finally said only this one sentence. With tears in her eyes, she was taken away by the big black bird.

After seeing Xiao Wu off, Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. No longer restrained, he would face this tough battle that was impossible to win.
