Chapter 1670 - Mighty
The stone bricks sunk one by one, and an underground passage came into view.
The people in the hall were elated. Then, just as they were about to head down, unexpectedly they heard brisk footsteps coming up from below.
Everyone held their breaths and were on their guards.
In a moment, a handsome young man walked out from the passage.
Immediately, there was an uproar, followed by laughter. The people who had gotten their guards up realized that it was just a young man. They lost their wariness and instead got interested.
The young man was laughing as well. He looked at everyone with a huge smile on his face.
There were five people from the Fire Dragon Race’s team and ten or more treasure hunters.
Most of them were in the early stage of Martial Sovereign, which was what people called the strong warriors known as Venerable Sovereigns.
After he’d finished that sentence, the tall, skinny man applied force on his fingers, causing Shen Xingchen’s face to turn red.
POW!
Suddenly, the tall, skinny man’s fingers were loosened, and his whole body was losing all its strength.
When the people in the hall saw what had happened, they were all shocked out of their minds.
There was a huge hole in the tall, skinny man’s chest. Flame could still be seen flickering at the edge of the hole. Because of the high temperature of the burn,
no blood was flowing out of the wound.
“How is that possible?”
The tall, skinny man asked something that was often repeated by most of the people who’d died at the hands of Jiang Chen.
Shen Xingchen escaped easily and hid behind Jiang Chen with the others.
“You shouldn’t threaten someone who possesses teleporting powers.”
Jiang Chen stood behind him with his clenched fist. The fire on his fist was still burning.
“Killing a Venerable Sovereign with one punch?”
“Could this be a dream?”
“What do we do now?”
The others couldn’t make up their minds. Those who could think the quickest immediately escaped through the main door.
As soon as one person did it, everyone else followed. All of them were afraid to be killed by Jiang Chen if they were left behind.
“Did I allow you to leave?” asked Jiang Chen coldly.
As he finished speaking, he opened up his fist. Gold flame that was ignited from his fingers covered the entire hall in a second, forming impenetrable walls.
“What kind of fire is this?”
Anyone who tried to escape ended up touching the wall of fire. Those who were close to the wall could see the devastation.
“Remember my name, Jiang Chen.”
There were too many people who were doubting him in this world. Jiang Chen decided to show his might.
“Jiang Chen? Which Jiang Chen?”
Everyone present was scared out of their wits. Clearly, all of them had heard the name Jiang Chen and thought of the same Jiang Chen.
However, they’d never thought that this extremely strong man in front of them was the Jiang Chen they’d imagined.
Jiang Chen didn’t say much. He exploded the fire walls. Everyone was hit so hard it was as if they had been blasted by cannonballs. No one had the strength to fight anymore.
After doing all that, Jiang Chen took Shen Xingchen and the others and left.
Venerable Sovereigns, who were the pride of the era, meant nothing to Jiang Chen. A lot of proud Martial Arts Saints had been shocked.
After leaving the underground world, Shen Xingchen and the others thought that this operation had come to an end.
Unexpectedly, it was just beginning.
…..
Countless people could be seen approaching them, flying from Wind Cloud City.
“Someone must have sensed the disappearance of the fire energy underground,” said Shen Xingchen.
This meant that the genuine fire of the Sun had been obtained by someone, and this particular someone was near Wind Cloud City.
Some people who wanted to reap what they had not sown naturally wanted to snatch it by force.
“Everyone, we are going to have to part ways for a short while.”
A great war was about to happen. Jiang Chen didn’t want them to be involved.
