Covering the sky: I have the body of the sky, and I have inherited the ten evil methods

Chapter 83 Immortal City!

Everyone cooperated well, constantly adjusted their tactics, used the characteristics of space, cleverly avoided the attacks of the evil beasts, and looked for opportunities to counterattack.

The battle once again entered a white-hot stage.

However, this time, Xiao Chen was calmer.

He kept observing and thinking during the battle, trying to find the ultimate master's flaws.

This ultimate master is powerful, but not invincible.

Finally, after a dangerous escape, Xiao Chen discovered the clue.

He discovered that although the final master's attack was fierce, it consumed a huge amount of spiritual energy.

Moreover, his attack methods follow certain patterns and seem to be subject to certain restrictions.

"I understand!" Xiao Chen's heart moved, and he immediately told everyone his discovery.

"Everyone, don't force your fight! His spiritual energy consumption is huge, and his attacks are patterned! We should show weakness to lure him into attacking, and then strike back at the critical moment!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately changed their tactics.

They deliberately exposed their flaws to give the evil beasts an opportunity to take advantage.

Seeing this, the evil beast was fooled and rushed towards the crowd with a roar.

"Now!" Xiao Chen roared, and everyone attacked at the same time.

Xiao Chen and the Saintess of Yao Chi used their combined attack technique once again. This time, they concentrated all their strength together without holding back at all.

The big black dog's magic circle was also running at its peak, providing them with energy continuously.

Jiang Huairen and the white-bearded old man also tried their best to restrain the evil beast's actions.

An even brighter lightsaber appeared again, carrying the power to destroy the world, and slashed fiercely at the evil beast.

This time, the lightsaber accurately hit the beast's vital point, completely chopping it into pieces!

"puff……"

Finally, the master let out a muffled groan, his body began to shake, and he could no longer maintain his powerful spiritual power.

"No... Impossible... How could I lose... I've sacrificed so much for this day..."

He muttered to himself, his voice full of resentment.

At this moment, the mysterious man in black robe who had been hiding in the dark saw that the situation was not good and wanted to take the opportunity to escape.

"Where are you going!" the white-bearded old man shouted angrily, and his figure flashed, blocking the way of the man in black robe.

"It's you! You are not dead yet!" The black-robed man's face suddenly became extremely ugly when he saw the white-bearded old man.

"Hmph, I am not destined to die! Today is the day you die!" The white-bearded old man roared angrily and pounced on the man in black robe.

The man in black robe was no match for the old man with white beard and was subdued in a few moves.

Under the pressure of everyone, the man in black robe had to tell the whole truth about the evil organization.

It turns out that they have been using this strange space to conduct evil experiments in an attempt to gain the power of immortality.

And that ancient book is the key to their experiment!
We...we have been searching for the secrets of the ancient books, hoping to gain the method of eternal life from them...

We have captured countless practitioners and used them as experimental subjects, hoping to find the key to eternal life..."

The man in black robe said tremblingly, his voice full of fear.

"You are a bunch of crazy guys!" Jiang Huairen roared, wishing he could slap the man in black to death.

When the truth came to light, everyone was filled with anger and disgust.

They didn't expect that this evil organization was so unscrupulous and would kill so many people for their own selfish desires.

Xiao Chen took a deep breath and tried to calm the anger in his heart.

He knew that now was not the time to be angry, they had more important things to do.

"Everyone, now is not the time to hold them accountable. Let's leave here first." Xiao Chen said in a deep voice.

The Saint of Yao Chi nodded, she also knew that the situation was urgent.

She walked to Xiao Chen and whispered, "I can try."

As she spoke, she slowly raised her hands, and soft rays of light flowed out from her palms and fell on the ancient book in Xiao Chen's hands.

The ancient book felt the power of the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi and suddenly emitted an even brighter light.

"Om..."

The ancient book trembled slightly, and mysterious runes flew out from the pages, slowly rotating in the air, and finally gathered into a strange pattern.

Xiao Chen looked at the strange pattern, his heart full of doubts.

"This is……"

A subtle hint of worry flashed across the cold eyes of the Yaochi Saintess: "Can we leave here now..."

The pattern on the ancient book glowed brighter, forming a vortex-shaped portal that exuded an ancient and mysterious aura.

Xiao Chen glanced at his companions and stepped into the portal first.

The Holy Maiden of Yao Chi followed closely behind, and the big black dog let out a strange cry and jumped in as well.

Jiang Huairen and the white-bearded old man looked at each other, nodded to each other, and stepped in one after another.

The world inside the portal spun around like a dizzy mess, as if time and space were distorted.

When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a dense forest.

The fresh air, with the fragrance of earth and grass, is refreshing.

"Huh..." Xiao Chen let out a long sigh, feeling indescribably relaxed all over.

"It's finally out!" he couldn't help but exclaim.

The long period of fighting and repression had exhausted them both physically and mentally. Now that they had finally seen the light of day again, they felt indescribably happy.

The Saint of Yao Chi also breathed a sigh of relief, and a faint smile appeared on her cold face.

The big black dog stretched, and his fat body looked particularly lazy in the sun.

Jiang Huairen and the white-bearded old man also showed expressions of relief. The crisis was finally over.

"Although we have come out, we cannot take it lightly," Xiao Chen looked around and said, "We must remain vigilant and be prepared to face challenges at any time."

"Where to go next?" Jiang Huairen scratched his head. The long period of tension made him look a little tired.

"I heard that there is a fairy city ahead, and maybe we can find some clues about ancient books there." Xiao Chen's eyes flashed, as if he had foreseen something.

Fairy City, as the name suggests, is a city where immortals gather.

From afar, the fairy city looks like a huge gem, embedded in the earth, shining brightly. The city is full of towering buildings, jade-like buildings, and a fairy-like aura, what a prosperous scene!
As you step into the fairy city, you will be overwhelmed by the noise, hawking and bargaining sounds one after another, and the dazzling array of various rare and precious treasures will dazzle you.

On both sides of the street, the cries of various rare and exotic animals mixed together, adding a bit of liveliness.

Xiao Chen and his companions seemed to be in a fantasy world, and were dazzled for a moment.

"Let's go to the Treasure Pavilion first." Xiao Chen suggested.

The Treasure Pavilion is the largest trading place in the Immortal City, gathering all kinds of rare treasures, and perhaps they can find the clues they are looking for.

The Treasure Pavilion is magnificent and golden, and the two huge Pixiu statues in front of the door are lifelike, as if they will come alive at any time.

As soon as you step in, a faint scent of sandalwood hits your nose, making you feel relaxed and happy.

"Dear guests, welcome to the Treasure Pavilion! How may I be of service to you?" A plump, fair-skinned, middle-aged man with a small mustache came up to them with a big smile on his face.

He is the manager of the Treasure Pavilion, Manager Wang.

"Manager Wang, we want to find some ancient books. Do you have any here?" Xiao Chen went straight to the point.

When Steward Wang heard this, his eyes lit up and he rubbed his hands. "Ancient books, these are rare things! You are lucky, our Treasure Pavilion has received a few recently. Please follow me."

As he was speaking, a young man dressed in gorgeous clothes and covered in jewels walked in, waving a fan.

He was followed by several burly guards, and it was obvious at first glance that they were not to be trifled with.

This young man is named Zhao Dezhu, also known as Master Zhao. He is the nephew of a big shot in the Immortal City. He is so domineering in the Immortal City that no one dares to provoke him.

As soon as Master Zhao entered the room, he stared straight at the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi, his eyes full of greed.

Waving a fan, he walked up to the Saintess of Yaochi and said frivolously, "This young lady is truly stunningly beautiful! Would you be so kind as to have a drink with me?"

The Saint Maiden of Yao Chi frowned slightly.

"Oh, you're quite cool? I like it!" Young Master Zhao was not angry at all. Instead, he became even more excited. He reached out to touch the face of the Saint Girl of Yao Chi.

Jiang Huairen was furious when he saw this. He stepped forward and stood in front of the Saintess of Yaochi. "What are you doing? Take your hands away!"

"Who do you think you are? How dare you challenge me?" Young Master Zhao glanced at Jiang Huairen and said disdainfully, "Do you know who I am? I am..."

"I don't care who you are! If you dare to be rude to my friends, I will beat you up!" Jiang Huairen is not a good-tempered person. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to take action.

Seeing this, Steward Wang quickly stepped forward to dissuade them, "Calm down, both of you! Calm down, both of you! This is the Treasure Pavilion. Please give me some respect and don't cause trouble here."

"Manager Wang, you've come at the right time! These country bumpkins dare to act so rudely in front of me, why don't you kick them out right away!" Master Zhao pointed at Xiao Chen and the others and said arrogantly.

"Mr. Zhao, these are also my guests, please..." Manager Wang looked embarrassed.

"Hmph! Manager Wang, you'd better think carefully. If you offend me, it will be difficult for you to survive in this fairy city in the future!" Young Master Zhao threatened.

The big black dog couldn't stand it any longer and came out wagging his tail. "Hey kid, why are you talking like a fart? It stinks! How dare you be so arrogant in front of me?"

"You dead dog! Are you looking for death?" Young Master Zhao was so angry that he ordered people to teach the big black dog a lesson.

At this moment, Steward Wang suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Everyone, there's been a clue about a treasure circulating in the Immortal City recently. It's said to be related to ancient books, and Young Master Zhao is also very interested in it..."

When Master Zhao heard this, his eyes lit up and he quickly asked, "What treasure? Tell me!"

Manager Wang looked at Xiao Chen and the others, then looked at Master Zhao, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

"Tell me! As long as you tell me the whereabouts of the treasure, I will guarantee you wealth and glory!" Master Zhao said impatiently.

"It is said that this treasure is related to an ancient and strange book..." Steward Wang just stopped talking here and looked towards the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion... "They... are coming..."

Just as Master Zhao was clamoring to teach the big black dog a lesson, a group of men in black suddenly rushed in from outside the Treasure Pavilion.

They were like a group of ghosts, silent but carrying a suffocating sense of oppression.

Everyone had their face covered with black cloth, revealing only a pair of cold eyes, as if they were evil spirits crawling out of hell.

The air froze instantly, and the originally noisy Treasure Pavilion was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

This group of men in black were well-trained and moved in unison. They walked straight towards Xiao Chen and the others. Their footsteps were heavy and rhythmic, like the scythe of the god of death, striking at everyone's hearts.

"Oh no, he's coming with bad intentions!" Jiang Huairen roared in a low voice, his muscles tensed like a cheetah ready to pounce.

He could sense the dangerous aura emanating from this group of people; they were definitely tough, battle-hardened characters.

Mr. Zhao's original arrogance was extinguished in an instant, and was replaced by fear.

He instinctively stepped back, hiding behind the guards, and shouted in a timid voice, "You... who are you? What do you want to do? I'm Zhao..."

Before Young Master Zhao could finish his words, the leading man in black suddenly raised his hand, and a stream of black energy broke through the air and slapped Young Master Zhao hard in the face.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, Master Zhao flew out like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground. Half of his cheek swelled up instantly, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he looked extremely miserable.

Manager Wang was so frightened that his face turned pale and his whole body was trembling. He knew how terrifying the power behind Master Zhao was.

How dare these men in black be so bold? Are they trying to kill themselves?
He trembled and said, "Everyone...everyone, please talk things over nicely. This is the Immortal City, don't act recklessly..."

"He's the one we're looking for!"

The leading man in black ignored Manager Wang completely and locked his eyes on Xiao Chen with an icy gaze. His voice was so hoarse as the friction of rusty iron sheets, which was creepy.

"Take him away!" He waved his hand, and the men in black behind him immediately rushed forward and pounced on Xiao Chen.

"Wait!" Xiao Chen suddenly said. He felt that this group of people had bad intentions, but they seemed to have some reservations and did not start killing people immediately.

"Who sent you? What's your purpose?"

The leader of the men in black let out a low laugh, like the howl of a night owl.

"You will soon find out who sent us. Take them away!"

"Wait, you can't take him!"

A cold voice sounded, and the Saint Maiden of Yao Chi stood out, blocking Xiao Chen and looking at the man in black with a cold expression.

"Oh? Saintess of Yaochi, you want to protect him?"

The leader of the men in black smiled strangely and suddenly pulled off his black mask, revealing a bluish-gray face covered with strange black lines, like some kind of evil totem.

At the same time, other men in black also took off their masks, revealing the same faces. They were not humans, but monsters wearing black armor - Black Armored Men!

"Xiancheng is your doom!" The black-armored leader's voice sounded like it came from the depths of hell, with a biting chill.

This sudden change caused chaos in the Treasure Pavilion.

Young Master Zhao was already frightened out of his wits. He hid behind the counter, trembling and muttering, "It's over, it's all over..." Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed, and a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart.

He grabbed the hand of the Saintess of Yaochi and said in a deep voice, "Be careful, these guys are not ordinary monks!"

The Saint of Yao Chi nodded slightly, and a crystal clear jade sword appeared in her hand. The sword exuded a faint chill, like a lotus flower in ice and snow, ready to bloom with deadly murderous intent at any time.

"Woof! These guys have such a weird aura!" The big black dog bared its teeth, its hair standing on end, obviously noticing the unusualness of the black-armored man.
