Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

Chapter 1725: Chapter 1722: Overestimating Oneself!

Upon hearing someone dare to meddle in his affairs, Zhao Meng’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat.

He turned around to see a stranger, with no sect insignia on him, and tentatively asked, "Who are you?"

Li Chen, expressionless, responded flatly, "Nameless, just a loose cultivator with no sect affiliation!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Meng’s face immediately showed a disdainful expression, and he burst out laughing loudly, "Haha, ha... a loose cultivator, and you dare to speak so arrogantly in front of me, you’re really tired of living, aren’t you?"

Others likewise started laughing recklessly at once.

Facing the mockery, Li Chen remained expressionless and said, "I’m in a good mood today and don’t want to see more blood. If you know what’s good for you, leave quickly!"

Hearing Li Chen’s words, Zhao Meng was first taken aback.

Then he laughed again as if he had heard a very funny joke.

"Did you hear that? He wants us to leave, haha, wants us to leave!"

As Zhao Meng spoke, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter again.

The people around him laughed along with him.

The purple-clad girl and the pink-clad girl were initially delighted to see someone standing up for them.

But when they saw that Li Chen’s cultivation had just entered the Mahayana and was even lower than theirs, let alone comparable to Zhao Meng, their pretty faces were instantly filled with worry.

Li Chen deliberately concealed his aura, making himself appear as if he had just entered the Mahayana Realm.

Zhao Meng, nostrils flaring, sneered at Li Chen with extreme arrogance, "Kid, being a hero and saving a damsel in distress isn’t that easy!"

Li Chen smiled calmly and asked, "Oh, and what would make it easy?"

Zhao Meng patted his chest hard and pointed at Li Chen, full of arrogance, "At least you have to defeat me first!"

"Alright!"

Li Chen replied concisely.

Then he glanced coldly at Zhao Meng and his companions and said, "I’m in a hurry, so you all come at me together!"

Hearing Li Chen’s words, Zhao Meng and his companions were all furious.

"Kid, you have quite the audacity. Today, I’ll show you who’s boss!"

The murderous words were still lingering in the air when Zhao Meng brandished two huge axes out of nowhere and slashed toward Li Chen with the momentum of splitting heaven and earth.

Seeing Zhao Meng lifting his axe to slash, Li Chen did not dodge but instead raised the Seven-star Dragon Abyss and met the attack head-on.

"Clang!"

The crisp sound of metal clashing sounded in the air, with electric sparks flying, illuminating the entire primeval forest in a flicker.

Without any hesitation, Li Chen suddenly lifted his arm, condensing a golden light seal, and blasted toward Zhao Meng’s top of the skull.

Zhao Meng was shocked and instinctively retreated violently. He crashed through a dozen ancient trees before barely regaining his balance.

To conceal his true power, Li Chen only used ten percent of his strength.

Yet, even so, Zhao Meng did not gain the slightest advantage in his hands.

"Boom!"

Another fierce collision occurred, and Zhao Meng was once again thrown backward, landing rather embarrassingly on the ground.

His companions hurriedly came forward to help.

Zhao Meng, gritting his teeth in hatred, had eyes blazing like brass bells.

"You have some skill, kid. It seems I underestimated you. But if you think this little skill can save the damsels, you’re too naive to think so. Today I’ll show you my true capabilities!"

Before the threatening words even fell from his lips, he charged at Li Chen like a fierce tiger descending a mountain.

As Zhao Meng charged, Li Chen raised the Seven-star Dragon Abyss, forming three sword flowers in the air and slashing toward him.

The three magnificent sword flowers sliced through the air like lightning breaking the night sky.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

Seeing the danger, Zhao Meng was taken aback and instinctively swung up his huge axe to defend.

As Zhao Meng hurriedly countered, Li Chen wasted no time, and a True Yuan vortex gathered in his palm, erupting ferociously.

"Boom!"

Caught off guard, Zhao Meng was struck squarely by the violent palm print, producing a loud impact sound.

However, his body remained as unmoved as a mountain, unaffected in the slightest.

A blue protective light suddenly enveloped him.

Recognizing the object on Zhao Meng, the purple-clad girl cried out in shock, "It’s the Divine-level Magical Treasure, Heavenly Sky Bell!"

The Heavenly Sky Bell can withstand the full force of a Half-step Tribulation Power’s strike.

Currently, with Li Chen’s cultivation, Zhao Meng’s defense can’t be breached.

At least, that’s what it seemed to the purple-clad and pink-clad girls.

Zhao Meng’s underlings looked at Li Chen as if seeing a dead man, arrogantly taunting.

But despite this, Li Chen’s expression showed no fear. There wasn’t even the slightest ripple of unease.

At this moment, Zhao Meng also believed himself to be in an invincible position, and he laughed arrogantly, "Haha, haha... If you kneel now and admit defeat, maybe I’ll spare your life if I’m in a good mood, how about that?"

Li Chen coldly glanced at him and replied crisply, "If you want a fight, let’s fight. Why all the nonsense?"

Seeing Li Chen so ungrateful, Zhao Meng’s anger surged to his heart. Like a beast in fury, he roared, "Since you’re seeking death, I’ll grant it to you!"

The malicious words were still swirling on Zhao Meng’s tongue when he suddenly swung his huge axe, as if a fierce tiger descending a mountain, aiming directly at Li Chen’s top of the skull’s Life Gate.

In response, Li Chen neither dodged nor evaded, but directly tossed the Seven-star Dragon Abyss into the air.

Upon witnessing this scene, Zhao Meng and his cohort were momentarily stunned.

"Senior Sister, what’s he doing, throwing his sword?"

With a worried look, the pink-clad girl lightly tugged at the purple-clad girl’s sash and asked in confusion.

This purple-clad girl was older than the pink-clad girl and had a more steady temperament.

Although she didn’t understand why Li Chen was doing this.

In her view, however, he must have his reason for doing so; she just hadn’t guessed it yet.

At this moment, Zhao Meng’s cohorts laughed recklessly.

"Isn’t it obvious? He’s realized my young master’s overwhelming strength and, being no match, wants to surrender!"

"Haha, now he wants to surrender, it’s too late!"

"Indeed, let’s all watch closely and see how my young master deals with this arrogant loose cultivator!"
