People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 141 Secret
Old Man Eagle Mountain was very fast. After leaving the battlefield, he traveled with little delay and quickly headed towards the northern part of the Black Corner Region.

In this direction, there is an old power that is known to everyone in the Black Corner Region, and is feared and hated by Canaan Academy.

If someone were to inquire in the chaotic Black Corner Region about the strongest force besides Canaan Academy...

Nine times out of ten, you'll get the same answer.

Demon Flame Valley!
This behemoth, entrenched in the northern part of the Black Corner Region, has long established an unshakeable reputation in this dog-eat-dog world through its ruthless methods and terrifying resources.

The more experienced and powerful individuals are in the Black Corner Region, the more they believe in the strength of Demon Flame Valley, because they know that a power capable of overturning the existing order lies dormant in that deep valley.

The core of this deterrent power lies in the legendary figure who lived in the same era as the Dean of Canaan College.

Earth Demon Old Ghost!

This renowned peak expert is like a giant sword hanging over the Black Corner Region. His unfathomable cultivation and ruthless and decisive methods make countless powerful people tremble with fear. As long as the Earth Demon Old Ghost guards the Demon Flame Valley, the Demon Flame Valley will always be an insurmountable barrier for all forces.

At this moment, the direction that Elder Eagle Mountain was rushing towards was none other than the terrifying Demon Flame Valley!
He knew perfectly well that the Life-Returning Pill he gave Chen Xiao was merely a temporary measure, extinguishing Chen Xiao's murderous intent but failing to truly resolve the feud between them.

This life-or-death struggle is far from over.

In the Black Corner Region, a brutal arena where the strong prey on the weak, there is no room for mercy or retreat. Chen Xiao would not let him go!
For Elder Eagle Mountain, if he wanted to continue living in the Black Corner Region, there were only two paths.

Either Chen Xiao dies, or he dies!
The sharpness displayed by Chen Xiao's camp tonight was like a heavy hammer blow to the heart of Old Man Yingshan. He knew that he could no longer pose any threat on his own. If he wanted to reverse the decline, he had to win over other Dou Zong level experts to form an alliance.

Looking across the entire Black Corner Region, the only forces that can stand shoulder to shoulder with him are the Black Emperor Sect and the Demon Flame Valley!
However, because he resented Mo Tianxing for revealing his secret of possessing the Life-Returning Pill, and because Chen Xiao and his group were also near the Black Emperor Sect, the Old Man of Eagle Mountain did not hesitate to rule out this option.

After weighing the pros and cons, Demon Flame Valley became his only hope for a comeback.

Elder Eagle Mountain was not blindly optimistic about winning over Demon Flame Valley. The three elders of Demon Flame Valley, led by Fang Yan, had also suffered a great loss tonight, and even a Dou Wang expert under their command had fallen. This humiliation was enough to ignite their fire of revenge.

Therefore, in the eyes of the old man of Eagle Mountain, in the current situation where interests and hatred are intertwined, the wise saying that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" is the best lever to leverage the support of Demon Flame Valley!
The old man from Eagle Mountain glanced back at the direction of the Black Emperor Sect, his eyes filled with malice, his fists clenched tightly in his sleeves, and a cold laugh squeezed out between his teeth.

"Chen Xiao, the Life-Returning Pill is only temporarily in your hands! Next time we meet, I will make you repay me a hundredfold!"

He was now positioned between the Black Emperor Sect and the Demon Flame Valley. Below him lay a vast, undulating mountain range, with ancient trees reaching for the sky, and miasma permeating the air, making it difficult to see any human habitation year-round, like a natural barrier.

Here, even if an earth-shattering battle breaks out between Dou Zong level experts, the energy aftershocks will be completely absorbed by the mountains and dense forests. Not only will it be difficult for experts from surrounding cities to arrive in time, but those with slightly weaker cultivation levels may not even be able to detect the slightest trace of the battle.

"It's a nice place."

"Yes, it's perfect for collecting your body."

No sooner had the old man from Eagle Mountain finished speaking than a response broke the silence from behind.

Old Man Yingshan shuddered, whirled around, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

Chen Xiao held an ice spear, his fighting spirit surging like raging waves. Queen Medusa's black hair flew wildly, and her eyes, like autumn water, gleamed with a soul-capturing cold light. Elder Su Qian walked steadily, his aged face filled with killing intent.

The three of them transformed into three streaks of light that streaked across the sky, carrying a chilling pressure, and were already close in the blink of an eye!
A gentleman's revenge is never too late.

In the Black Corner Region, there are no gentlemen, and Chen Xiao never considers himself a good person, so let alone ten years, he can't even wait an hour.

Sensing the surging killing intent emanating from the three people, which seemed to be coming towards him in a tangible way, Old Man Yingshan subconsciously took several steps back, his steps were flustered, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes, but more than that, he was filled with an uncontrollable doubt.

He had been extremely careful along the way, leaving no obvious traces. What methods did Chen Xiao and the other two use to pinpoint his escape route so precisely and follow him like a shadow?

He couldn't figure out the answer to this problem.

Before he could figure it out, in an instant, a powerful pressure that sent chills down his spine surged from behind him like a tidal wave. Its strength was no less than his own!

Are there any experts? !
He turned around in shock, and what came into view was a strange middle-aged man dressed in a black robe in the distance.

This person stood in mid-air, his fighting spirit surging and turbulent, like rolling dark clouds, radiating a chilling pressure.

Although both were four-star Dou Zong, Elder Ying Shan felt immense pressure from this person!

The old man from Yingshan let out a muffled groan, his back instantly soaked with cold sweat.

Three Dou Zong...

No, including that puppet, that's a full four Dou Zong level combatants!

"He's really hiding it well!" Old Man Eagle Mountain turned around, his cloudy eyes fixed on Chen Xiao, a cold laugh trembling in his throat, revealing a hint of madness.

Facing four Dou Zong-level fighters alone, including this unfamiliar Dou Zong who was no less powerful than the Heavenly Demon Puppet, even though Old Man Eagle Mountain was unwilling to admit defeat, he could no longer utter any harsh words.

The current situation is almost certainly a death trap!

Under this impenetrable web of death, once he makes a move, his chances of even self-destructing are probably extremely slim.

"Excellent."

Chen Xiao remained calm, a composed smile playing on his lips. With a flick of his finger, the Heavenly Demon Puppet appeared, its body radiating a chilling aura that sent shivers down one's spine.

Without wasting any more words with the old man from Eagle Mountain, Chen Xiao bowed to Cao Xi in thanks.

The latter replied with a smile, "Chen Xiao, you should step back a bit. We can handle this old guy."

"Everyone, be careful."

Chen Xiao didn't mince words. A flash of lightning appeared beneath his feet, and he instantly flew to a distance. Almost at the same moment, the Heavenly Demon Puppet suddenly burst forth, charging toward the Eagle Mountain Elder with overwhelming force. Wherever it passed, the air was torn apart, producing a piercing shriek.

With such a huge advantage, if even one person gets injured, this interception cannot be considered perfect.

The Heavenly Demon Puppet is fearless of pain and can withstand the fiercest counterattacks, making it perfectly suited to be at the forefront.

"boom!"

A deafening roar erupted, and a violent shockwave swept through the mountains and forests like a hurricane, uprooting towering ancient trees. The Heavenly Demon Puppet and the Eagle Mountain Elder retreated violently.

Before Elder Eagle Mountain could regain his footing, the Heavenly Demon Puppet's eyes flashed with a dark light, and it approached like a ghost at an even faster speed, its fists clenched together and carrying a bone-chilling cold as it slammed into the top of his head.

At the same time, Cao Xi lunged forward, turning his fist into a palm, and fiercely struck towards the heart of the old man from Eagle Mountain.

Elder Su Qian unleashed a powerful punch, blocking the retreat route, and smashed straight at Elder Yingshan's back.

Queen Medusa, wielding a longsword, unleashed a seven-colored, serpentine sword beam that aimed directly at the throat of Old Man Eagle Mountain. The space around them twisted and deformed violently under the beam.

A roaring torrent of energy, carrying a world-destroying force, surged towards Elder Eagle Mountain like a raging sea. Seeing this, his bloodshot eyes widened, and his battle qi frantically condensed around his body, forming a black protective shield.

However, the seemingly solid barrier, under the terrifying force of the Heavenly Demon Puppet and the attacks of Cao Xi and the others, was like thin ice meeting boiling water, instantly bursting open with spiderweb-like cracks.

"Return to Origin Palm!"

Old Man Yingshan gritted his teeth and roared, his withered hand flashing out four bloody palm prints in an attempt to use offense as defense.

Wherever the palm print passed, the space distorted and trembled. However, in the face of an absolute difference in strength, these counterattacks were nothing more than the desperate struggle of a cornered beast.

The Heavenly Demon Puppet charged forward relentlessly, its furiously crashing down and shattering the two palm prints.

Queen Medusa's seven-colored sword light coiled around another one like a serpent.

Cao Xi's powerful palm strike directly shattered the last palm print into nothingness.

Unimpeded, Su Qian delivered a powerful punch that landed squarely on the chest of the old man from Eagle Mountain.

"puff!"

Visibly, the old man of Eagle Mountain's chest caved in, and violent energy raged wildly within his body. His body flew out like a kite with a broken string, spitting out blood, which was especially conspicuous in the moonlight.

In just a few breaths, this once formidable Dou Zong expert from the Black Corner Region was covered in wounds and severely injured.

Barely managing to steady himself, the old man from Eagle Mountain staggered and hovered in the air, panting heavily, letting the shadow of death completely envelop him.

"Let's finish him off with one blow."

Seeing the Heavenly Demon Puppet relentlessly rushing towards Elder Eagle Mountain again, Su Qian made a suggestion.

Cao Xi and Queen Medusa both nodded.

Immediately, the three of them stopped holding back, their fighting spirit surging wildly, and the energy of heaven and earth was stirred up by their manipulation, creating a gust of wind.

"Burning Sun Force!"

"Heavenly Frost Palm!"

"Snake Sword Explodes!"

The three fighting techniques were unleashed simultaneously, sealing off all of Eagle Mountain Elder's escape routes.

The old man from Eagle Mountain, who had just been knocked back by the Heavenly Demon Puppet's punch, changed his expression drastically, his face flushed with a sickly redness. Then, he held nothing back, his left hand rapidly forming a seal, and his right hand sweeping across his chest. A huge palm print, nearly thirty feet long, appeared and split into three, simultaneously meeting the three great fighting techniques.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Three earth-shattering roars exploded simultaneously, as if the entire sky had been torn apart.

The next moment, the three palm prints condensed by Elder Yingshan exploded, and the violent energy aftershocks swept outwards like waves.

The old man from Eagle Mountain, who was at the center of the storm, could no longer hold on. He let out a shrill scream as his protective fighting spirit completely collapsed, and he was blasted away like a kite with a broken string.

His body tumbled through the air as he fell, his blood raining down on the forest below, until he crashed heavily into a distant mountain peak.

Dust and smoke filled the air, and rocks tumbled down. After more than ten breaths, the old man of Eagle Mountain finally staggered up into the sky. His hair was disheveled, his face was unrecognizable, and his body was covered in blood. His once intact right arm was now empty.

"laugh!"

A seven-colored sword beam shot down from the sky, piercing straight through the chest of the old man of Eagle Mountain. It completely extinguished his life force, which was like a candle flickering in the wind. His body exploded into a cloud of blood mist, leaving no trace of his remains!
same moment.

On the other side of the mountain where the old man from Eagle Mountain fell, there is another old man from Eagle Mountain!

His face was deathly pale, and his aura was so weak that he was even weaker than a Dou Huang expert.

Sensing that his 'self' in the sky had been killed by Queen Medusa in one blow, Old Man Eagle Mountain did not dare to look back. He concealed his aura to the extreme, hiding in the shadows, motionless.

The reason for this bizarre scene was due to a secret life-saving technique he used.

Soul clone!

Using this strange and mysterious technique, he was able to condense a clone with his soul that was so realistic that it was indistinguishable from the real thing. The more soul power he injected, the more powerful the clone became, making it difficult to tell the difference between the real and the fake.

In order to deceive the people high in the sky, the old man from Eagle Mountain had been laying the groundwork from the very beginning. This was the only hope he could think of for escaping death.

To this end, he poured ninety percent of his soul power into that clone, just to make it look more real, which is why his true body was so weak.

One breath, two breaths...

Feeling the three Dou Zong powerhouses in the sky relax, and even the Heavenly Demon Puppet becoming still, Old Man Eagle Mountain was overjoyed.

However, at that moment, his pupils suddenly dilated.

Ahead, a smiling figure emerged from the shadows—none other than Chen Xiao, whom he had overlooked!
Seeing the complete lack of surprise on Chen Xiao's face, Old Man Yingshan was utterly desperate. Now, let alone a Dou Huang, even facing a Dou Wang level opponent, his chances of winning were slim.

"I...don't understand, tell me why!"

The old man from Yingshan slumped against the tree roots behind him, completely baffled by the reason.

He had shown the Life-Returning Pill to Mo Tianxing at the auction, and Chen Xiao knew that he might have been betrayed by Mo Tianxing.

However, no one in the entire Dou Qi Continent knew that he possessed the strange secret technique of creating a soul clone.

Those I've actually seen are all dead.

Even his companions, who were with him when he first obtained this secret technique, were killed by him with a single palm strike.

It was precisely because of this that, seeing Chen Xiao's expectant look, that the old man of Eagle Mountain finally broke down completely.

He felt he would die with regrets if he didn't get an answer to this question!

Unfortunately, Chen Xiao had no intention of answering his questions.

With a slight smile, he flicked his finger and a spiky dart shot out, piercing straight through the throat of the old man from Eagle Mountain.

"Your secret is also my secret."
