CHAPTER 877: CHAPTER 877: MISCALCULATED

In the eyes of the hooded man, Chen Nan at this moment was even more savage than a demon beast.

A proper magic technique, yet he wielded it like a hammer to smash down.

A cultivator, but not like a cultivator, more barbaric than body cultivation!

Of course, only Chen Nan could use it this way.

His body’s strength far exceeded those of cultivators at the same level, and without practicing Body Refining Technique, he was no weaker than body cultivation.

At the same time, performing magic was like second nature to him, yet the magic from the Qingshan Sect was incomplete, only the first third was intact, lacking the latter part of the cultivation method.

As a result, the power surely greatly diminished.

So Chen Nan thought of this method, using magic combined with his formidable physical strength, could multiply the destructive power.

Besides, such an attack was indeed satisfying.

Chen Nan was covered with Heaven-Burning Flame, holding the Fierce Tiger Seal, striking again and again on the magic barrier in front of him, making the earth tremble.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After several rounds of attack, cracks finally appeared on the magic barrier.

As the sound of breaking "crack, crack, crack" rang out, the magic barrier was finally shattered by the Golden Seal, and the hooded man hiding behind the barrier felt sweetness in his throat, blood trickling down his mouth.

Immediately, the Fierce Tiger Seal slammed fiercely into his chest!

With a crack, the hooded man’s chest shattered, bones unknown to have broken, his body flying high before crashing heavily to the ground, barely clinging to life.

In the distance, the Skinny Ghost and the old hag, witnessing this scene, stood petrified as if turned to stone, terror-stricken in their hearts.

What kind of monster had they provoked!

Meanwhile, the scar-faced cultivator, who was blown away, had one hand now charred black, emitting a burnt smell, his expression contorted with pain.

The three exchanged glances, realizing Chen Nan was not someone they could handle, turned and fled, ignoring the hooded man who was left with his last breath.

To people like them, anyone else’s life was not worth more than their own.

"Damn, never heard any sect had such a powerful cultivator, we really miscalculated this time!"

Skinny Ghost cursed in his heart, how could a Foundation Establishment fifth-level cultivator defeat a sixth-level cultivator in an instant, so overwhelmingly powerful.

Such a prodigy couldn’t possibly be unknown, why hadn’t he heard of him before?

The three of them fled in three directions, hoping Chen Nan would chase the others, allowing them to escape with their lives.

Chen Nan glanced at the directions they were fleeing, not planning to let a single one go.

"Go!"

The King of Ten Thousand Gu in the Dantian was summoned once more, pointing towards the direction the wounded scar-faced cultivator was fleeing, transforming into a silver light shooting out.

"The Heaven-Burning Transformation expends mana too quickly, must kill them before the mana is exhausted!"

"Small Shifting Technique!"

With a low shout, Chen Nan suddenly disappeared from the spot, chasing after the fleeing Skinny Ghost.

If even one escaped, it would be an unforeseen danger, it might retaliate against him someday, therefore he must root them out!

Although the Skinny Ghost wasn’t slow, with Chen Nan in Heaven-Burning Transformation, his speed was even more astonishing, the speed of mana circulation surpassed the Skinny Ghost by a long shot.

In just a few breaths’ time, he had caught up.

"Don’t chase me, we can talk this over peacefully!"

Skinny Ghost panicked, wishing for another pair of legs, didn’t dare stop for a moment, yet kept begging for mercy.

"Heh, now you say such things, don’t you think it’s too late?"

"Do you really want to fight to the death?" Skinny Ghost gritted his teeth, fierceness growing in his heart, a hint of madness flashing in his eyes.

"Since you wish to exterminate me, don’t blame me then!"

He suddenly stopped, his hands performing a sealing technique, immediately condensing a dense black mist in front of him, then bit his tongue and sprayed a mouthful of essence blood onto the black mist.

Instantaneously, the black mist boiled like boiling water, emitting a piercing howl, as if the sound of hell!

Skinny Ghost’s face turned pale in an instant, the faces within the black mist seemed to struggle to rush out, filled with intense resentment, almost rebounding against him.

Among the black mist were the souls of those he killed using evil technique, collected as a means of defense.

Such cruel evil techniques he dared not use outside, only in the Wuyin Forest, where no one else could see, did he dare use them without restraint.

"Go!"

With clenched teeth, he pointed forward, and the black mist surged towards Chen Nan, the souls within pouncing and biting towards Chen Nan.

"Heh, are you insane?" Chen Nan sneered, the Heaven-Burning Flame on his body was the Spiritual Fire of utmost yang and strength in the world, the nemesis of all evil spirits.

The golden flames on his body rose abruptly, his body moved without pause, charging into the black mist.

The spirits wanted to bite, but upon contact with the Heaven-Burning Flame, they emitted wailing screams, dissipating instantly like melting snow.

Skinny Ghost’s chest felt as if struck by lightning, immediately spitting out a mouthful of black blood, terror filling his eyes.

The spirits were linked to his mind, their dispersal now inflicted a backlash on him.

The magic he prided himself on was actually worthless before Chen Nan!

In a blink, Chen Nan was already in front of him, the terrifying heat made Skinny Ghost’s throat parched, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

"Don’t kill me, I’m willing to be your servant..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Nan slapped him with a palm, the Heaven-Burning Flame containing terrifying heat smacked onto Skinny Ghost’s chest, burning through it in an instant.

With a backhand slap, Skinny Ghost’s head exploded like a watermelon.

Chen Nan retrieved Skinny Ghost’s storage bag, turned, and rushed toward another direction.

The fleeing old hag was still relieved that Chen Nan didn’t chase her, when suddenly she felt the surrounding temperature rapidly rise, the plants on the ground quickly wilting from the heat.

"Hmm? Something’s wrong!"

Her expression changed abruptly, waving her cane, and the cyan light fell around her body, thick vines burst from the ground, forming an impenetrable cage that enveloped her.

The moment the vine cage formed, it shook violently, evidently someone attacked the vines.

"So close!"

The old hag panted heavily, fear welling up in her heart, if she hadn’t reacted quickly, the attack just now would have hit her.

But before she could take her next step, she saw the vines in front of her suddenly being punched through, the edges of the hole charred black.

The vines couldn’t withstand the terrifying heat of the Heaven-Burning Flame.

Chen Nan’s face appeared outside the hole, smiling slightly at the old hag.

"Wasn’t it you who wanted to play with me?"

That smiling face, at this moment, seemed terrifying beyond compare in the eyes of the old hag, like the most dreadful thing she’d ever seen!

Her heart pounded uncontrollably, her body retreating continuously, only to hit the vines, with her old face devoid of the previous arrogance, pale as paper!

"It wasn’t me, get away, go away!"
