Chapter 1483
Pop!
The four bloody bodies fell to the ground, and their red and green entrails spilled out.
The six knights besieging Wang Chen were all stunned.
Wang Chen had just killed no ordinary person, but the famous Zhang Daozi, the Grand Master of the White Cloud Temple, a person of luxury who could sit with the prefect!
Zhang Daozi had profound magical powers, and as the plenipotentiary sent by the White Cloud Temple, he was also the main force against the Drought Demon this time.
In fact, without the help of this Grand Master, the losses suffered by the group of experts and powerful people in the process of suppressing the Drought Demon would have been much greater!
Yet such a being comparable to a terrestrial immortal was actually killed by Wang Chen with a single slash?
They couldn’t believe their own eyes.
At this moment, Wang Chen had already landed firmly on the ground, and the machete in his hands swept to the right, instantly showering a cold radiance.
The knight was shocked, instinctively trying to retreat and dodge, but his mount under him simply couldn’t react in time, and his neck was instantly severed by the machete.
The knight on horseback was not spared either, and his waist and abdomen were soon cut open by the blade.
鈥淎h!鈥�
The piercing scream woke the other five knights from their dreams. They reacted immediately, their eyes turning red, and they roared as they swung their battleaxes, intent on cutting Wang Chen into mincemeat.
As Zhang Daozi’s escorts, their mission was to protect the master and safely guide the drought demon into the territory of Qing’an County.
Now that Zhang Daozi has died tragically, the mission has completely failed, and they are all to blame. They will surely be severely punished when they return.
In order to escape punishment, the only way is to take the head of the murderer to offset it.
However, in the face of the siege by five elite cavalry, Wang Chen stood still without avoiding or dodging, swinging his machete in heavy strokes, mercilessly beheading the enemies charging at him.
The neighing of the horses, the roars and screams of the knights, and the sound of the blade cutting into flesh and blood all mingled together and carried far away on the wind.
The air around them grew hot!
But such sounds soon faded away, for the five elite cavalry were like moths flitting towards the flame, and in the blink of an eye they were all annihilated by Wang Chen’s machete.
Only the corpses and blood were left all over the ground.
However, Wang Chen, who had just won this skirmish, did not feel the slightest joy, but instead his expression became grave.
Because he felt a tremor from the ground.
At first, the tremor was very small and weak, but it quickly became larger and stronger in a very short period of time, as if something huge was rushing from the ground towards them.
What was most unnerving was that the temperature around them was rapidly rising, and the blood flowing on the ground was emitting wisps of smoke. Many dry grass blades were spontaneously combusting without fire.
The Drought Demon!
Wang Chen’s heart became clear, and his keen intuition told him that this natural disaster-level fierce beast was running towards him.
The purpose of Zhang Daozi of the White Cloud Temple and the six knights was obvious: they wanted to lure the Drought Demon into Qing’an County, and they were obviously carrying something that could lure the Drought Demon.
Now the Drought Demon has really been lured here!
Wang Chen took a long breath, and a divine radiance flashed in his dark eyes.
The Drought Demon is a powerful being in the mortal world, a legendary beast that mortals cannot match!
If Wang Chen breaks the seal and restores even one ten-thousandth of his cultivation, he can easily deal with this Drought Demon.
However, if he really did that, then this training in the mortal world could be declared a complete failure.
It would serve no purpose.
So what Wang Chen had to do now was to use his mortal strength to fight the drought demon head-on!
A mouthful of innate true energy was instantly lifted from his dantian and immediately circulated throughout his body. The machete in his hand seemed to sense his master’s fighting spirit, and the blade trembled violently, emitting a clanging sound.
At the same time, Wang Chen’s mouth, nose, eyes, ears, and the five apertures of the heavenly gate all opened, and his perception ability increased significantly in an instant.
It was as if he could 鈥渟ee鈥� a hideous beast breaking through the ground right at his feet.
鈥淜ill!鈥�
The next moment, Wang Chen suddenly let out a breath and let out a sound, and the entire person then soared up and leaped high, spinning the knife in his hand once, and the blade was plunged heavily towards the ground.
The machete, which had condensed innate qi, silently pierced the dry soil until it disappeared.
Boom!
With a deafening sound, the ground where the machete had pierced suddenly exploded, sending countless pieces of earth and stone flying in all directions. A fierce beast with a body covered in red burst out of the ground.
Wang Chen fell backwards several zhang and landed on the ground.
What appeared in front of him was a monster shaped like a giant ape. Its fur was like burning flames, its pair of scarlet eyes full of bloodthirsty ferocity, and its two long fangs sharp as blades.
Roar~
The ferocious beast, which was over ten feet tall, opened its bloodthirsty mouth and let out an angry roar towards Wang Chen, and countless dark red fireworks spewed out of its mouth.
Although they were several zhang apart, Wang Chen still felt an extremely hot air current coming towards him.
His clothes were about to catch fire.
Without any further ado, Wang Chen swung his machete and charged forward.
The Drought Demon did not expect the 鈥渓ittle thing鈥� in front of it to dare to attack it on its own initiative. It immediately opened its arms, and its ten fingers all popped out sharp claws, swinging towards Wang Chen.
It wanted to tear the enemy that had dared to offend it to pieces!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
In the blink of an eye, Wang Chen’s machete and the drought demon’s claws collided countless times, producing countless sparks.
The battle between the two sides reached a white-hot intensity from the very beginning.
Wang Chen’s frontal assault was in vain, and he was unable to break through the drought demon’s defenses. He immediately retreated and circled around the side and back of this fierce beast with extremely agile steps.
Every creature born on the earth has a weakness, it’s just that some weaknesses are extremely deep and difficult to discover or attack.
The hair of this xuanzang looks soft, but in fact each hair is as hard as steel wire, forming an extremely strong defense on its body, which is difficult to break even with Wang Chen’s闄屽垁.
Moreover, its claws are very sharp. After a brief encounter, there were many scratches on Wang Chen’s闄屽垁.
If they continue to fight head-on like this, this thousand-forged weapon will definitely be destroyed!
So Wang Chen avoided its sharp edges and looked for its weak points.
When Wang Chen changed his tactics, the Drought Demon thought he was going to run away and immediately roared as it pursued him.
Now this beast of natural disaster no longer wanted to tear Wang Chen apart 鈥� it wanted to devour its enemy alive!
So on the dry land, the battle between man and beast entered a state of stalemate.
Wang Chen constantly changed his position, avoiding the drought demon’s counterattacks again and again, looking for an opportunity to slash, chop, parry, or stab, testing the beast’s defenses with blade after blade.
After more than ten rounds of entanglement, the drought demon, who had not been able to take Wang Chen, became more and more furious and impatient!
