CHAPTER 724: CHAPTER 721: THOUGH THERE BE TENS OF THOUSANDS, I WILL GO!

Li Chen, seeing Ning Que suddenly attack, did not dare to be careless and swiftly struck out with "Great Brahma Wisdom" to meet him in midair.

Just as he and Ning Que were engaged in a life-or-death battle, the infuriated Old Man Jiang unleashed a Death Gang Wind, aiming it towards Li Chen’s flank.

Li Chen, facing two adversaries, was caught in a stalemate.

Witnessing this scene, everyone present was utterly astonished, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

Both Ning Que and Old Man Jiang were peak Golden Core Late Stage experts, the two most formidable masters in Ningling County.

Yet, to everyone’s absolute surprise, Li Chen, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, was holding his own against two opponents without falling behind.

Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they would have never believed it to be true.

Though Li Chen’s True Yuan was exceptionally concentrated, his cultivation was, after all, only in the Late-stage of Foundation Establishment, a whole major level below both Ning Que and Old Man Jiang.

This was a fatal shortcoming that he could not yet offset!

However, both Old Man Jiang and the Prefectural Governor Ning Que harbored a profound wariness towards Li Chen.

They were only slightly stronger than Qi Shan and Black Hawk; if Li Chen could annihilate those two, he could just as well annihilate them.

Furthermore, they each harbored their own schemes, as the fortune Li Chen acquired in the Soul Condensing Tower was unique, and each desired it for themselves.

Indeed, it wasn’t only the two of them who harbored such thoughts. Other sect leaders and family heads shared the same mindset.

After all, who wouldn’t love the jewels of Jing Mountain?

"Gentlemen, let’s join forces. Help Ning County Governor and Jiang Family Master to collectively slay the villain Li Chen!"

The Sect Leader of West Spirit Pavilion suggested to the other Golden Core experts.

"Indeed, that would be good. Let us all join forces and slay the villain Li Chen!"

The other experts exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

In an instant, more than a dozen Golden Core level experts and over a hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators surrounded Li Chen in layers.

In a blink of an eye, Li Chen was trapped in a dire situation!

Yet despite this, his expression remained calm as still water, undisturbed.

With his hair flying wildly, he stood alone with his Unrivaled Immortal Shoes and sword, facing thousands of troops without fear, bearing the sovereign aura of a lone warrior disdainful of the world!

"Though I stand against tens of thousands, I am unstoppable!"

Having proclaimed this passionate and bold statement, Li Chen’s palm caressed the Dragon Abyss Sword Edge. Golden blood stained the entire blade.

"Not good, he seems to be using a mysterious magical treasure, stop him!"

Ning Que, seeing the situation, cried out in alarm.

Old Man Jiang and the others exchanged glances, resembling a pack of aggressive wolves as they pounced towards Li Chen from every direction.

"Perfect timing, today I shall use your blood to sacrifice my Dragon Abyss!"

"Array, activate!"

As Li Chen roared, three thousand glittering Magic Swords, like an eagle striking the sky, burst forth from the ground.

Instantly, with his Seven-star Dragon Abyss in hand serving as the Formation Eye, three thousand Magic Swords enveloped Ning Que, Old Man Jiang, and several hundred experts within layers.

Seeing Li Chen wielding such a terrifying ultimate weapon, everyone present was petrified, instinctively retreating.

With his hair wild and eyes flashing like lightning, Li Chen surveyed his surroundings, resembling a reincarnated Killing God.

"Kill!"

As he swung his Seven-star Dragon Abyss forcefully, three thousand Magic Swords moved in unison.

"Psst!"

"Psst!"

"Psst!"

...

Some weaker cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage couldn’t withstand such dense Magic Sword attacks and were pierced through the chest on the spot.

At that moment, corpses were everywhere, blood spattered, pooling into streams in the lower areas. The area several hundred feet covered by the Sword Array turned into a hellish meat grinder in an instant.

"Everyone, do not panic, as long as we kill Li Chen, the Formation Eye will be gone, and this Sword Array will break itself!"

Prefectural Governor Ning Que was the first to recover and shouted aloud.

Old Man Jiang and over a dozen Golden Core Experts nodded one after another. It was like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their Divine Skills. Magic Swords, thunder, flames, Spirit Talismans, all bombarded towards Li Chen.

Although Li Chen had the support of the Three Thousand Sword Formation, facing the onslaught of more than a dozen Golden Core Experts was extremely pressure-filled.

Moreover, although the Sword Array looked terrifying, Li Chen’s cultivation was too low, and the Dragon Soul was very weak, so the power it could exert was limited, only posing a lethal threat to Foundation Establishment cultivators.

For Golden Core Experts like Ning Que and Old Man Jiang, it only caused some trouble and was nowhere near enough to cause them serious injuries.

"Clang!"

"Crack!"

...

The crisp sound of metal clashing was like beads falling onto a jade plate, echoing one after another.

Facing the frantic attack from more than a dozen Golden Core Experts, the hastily arranged Three Thousand Sword Spirit Formation by Li Chen showed signs of collapse.

The Sword Array had seven layers, with the outer three layers already completely destroyed, and the inner three layers in imminent danger.

Seeing this scene, both Ning Que and Old Man Jiang were overjoyed.

"Everyone, push harder, this kid Li Chen’s Sword Array is at its limits, it won’t last long. Today, he will surely die!"

The other Golden Core Experts, seeing victory close at hand, rushed forward as if injected with adrenaline, eager to be the first to advance.

Seeing this scene, a sinister smile resembling that of the Death God surfaced in Li Chen’s eyes.

"If you all wish for death, then let’s die together!"

Before his voice fell, Li Chen suddenly unleashed a golden talisman. Inside, a light flickered, harboring a power to destroy heaven and earth.

Upon seeing this talisman, everyone was so shocked that their eyes popped, and they were terrified beyond measure.

Ning Que, ever so knowledgeable, recognized the origin of the talisman at a glance.

"Nascent Soul Talisman?"

"Go to die!"

Before the word "die" even fully dissipated in the air, a thunderous explosion resounded, echoing across the heavens and earth.

In an instant, the void shattered, the sun and moon seemed to invert. The violent True Yuan, like ripples from stones hitting the water, rapidly spread all around.

Within several tens of miles, no matter the buildings, mountains, or plants, everything was instantly obliterated. Even the tall city walls, despite having defense restrictions, cracked like a dense spiderweb, seemingly ready to collapse at any moment.

The soldiers defending on the city walls, still unclear about what had happened, were confusedly turned into Dead Souls and corpses.

With this explosion of the Nascent Soul Talisman, ten out of the dozen Golden Core Experts perished, with only a few barely surviving due to their defensive treasures. However, those Foundation Establishment Cultivators who entered the Sword Array weren’t so lucky and were almost completely annihilated.

Sun Tiantian, who was at the periphery and equipped with a defensive treasure, narrowly escaped disaster.

She saw the Nascent Soul Talisman thrown by Li Chen, her eyes widening in shock.

This talisman, specially made by an Elder of their Cloud Sea Sect, how did it end up in Li Chen’s hands?
