Already level 120.

Still, it's a bit too few, only a little less than sixty thousand slain!

Standing by his side, Bartley jumped in shock when he heard Jiang Chen sigh. What did he mean by only a little less than sixty thousand? How many was he planning to kill? A hundred thousand? Or a million? Bartley recalled that this guy had once slaughtered a million soldiers of the Underworld Army—a whole million! What would it mean if it were a million from the Cannibal Tribe?

Jiang Chen's massacre had also caught the attention of the mighty.

A figure approached, standing in the air as she watched the countless Sword Auras sweep through everything. She was Euphemia, the City Lord of Pokala and also a Sixth-stage Master.

Jiang Chen looked up at the dark shadow in the sky.

Dozens of Sword Auras shot out rapidly.

Behind Euphemia, several tails swept through the air, deflecting the nearby Sword Auras. The Sword Qi attacks dissipated quickly upon contact with the tails.

Jiang Chen said, "Finally, a powerful opponent has arrived."

Bartley frowned deeply. "That's Euphemia, the City Lord of Pokala. Her Heizi Weapon is her nine tails, possessing strong defensive and offensive power. Her close-combat skills are formidable."

Interesting, her defensive power is indeed very strong.

Jiang Chen observed Euphemia's attack pattern. Her nine huge tails danced with the wind, their speed no less than that of his flying sword, and she could control all nine simultaneously for an attack.

If Euphemia weren't from the Cannibal Tribe, I would have thought she was a Nine-Tailed Fox!

Jiang Chen said, "Let's leave the city first and talk later."

WHOOSH!

Thirty thousand Sword Auras shot rapidly towards Euphemia. Simultaneously, the three of them quickly headed towards the city gate.

Euphemia roared, "You killed my kin! I will eat you alive!"

The Sword Auras swept through but were blocked by Euphemia's tails, which formed an impenetrable wall around her, grinding any Sword Qi that entered into dust.

Sword Qi is energy, and Euphemia's tail attacks could shatter that energy. Furthermore, the tails' defensive power was exceptionally strong, completely unbreachable by Sword Qi attacks.

Euphemia watched the three leave and followed closely behind. She was so fast that she caught up with Jiang Chen and the others in an instant.

Jiang Chen's brows knitted tightly. Dammit, facing a powerful opponent like this is troublesome, especially with Bartley in tow.

Jiang Chen, pulling Angelina along, quickly performed Flash in the Void.

Bartley saw only two afterimages before the pair vanished in the blink of an eye.

Bartley stared, dumbfounded. They ran away? Weren't you here to save me?

Transforming into an afterimage, Bartley followed Jiang Chen. Once they were outside the city gates, Jiang Chen looked at Bartley in surprise. "Your speed isn't slow either!"

"Big Brother, although I've lost my equipment, I still have my skills. I'm a Magic Swordsman, and I also possess the Magician's Teleport."

"Aren't the Titan Tribe all warriors?"

"Many are, but there are also special Classes."

Jiang Chen looked at the sky, where the dark shadow was following closely. "She's coming again," he said. "You two hide for now. This area is open; I'll face her."

Bartley asked, full of doubt, "Are you sure you'll be okay?"

"If I'm not, you can stay behind and cover our retreat."

Bartley gestured in exasperation. I'm so done with you, you crafty fellow! Weren't you here to save me? Why did you just bolt? And without any plan! Is this your idea of a rescue? You're not saving me; you're trying to get me killed!

Angelina and Bartley swiftly retreated over two hundred meters. Jiang Chen, thin sword in hand, waited for Euphemia. She was flying low, four of her thirty-meter-long tails touching the ground as she dashed forward.

She can maneuver like that?

Euphemia looked at Jiang Chen, her gaze cold and filled with murderous intent.

Then, Jiang Chen activated the Wan Jian Gui Clan's Skill again. Thirty thousand Sword Auras spiraled around him, forming a fierce storm.

Euphemia sensed the energy of these Sword Auras. Though numerous, the energy of each individual Aura wasn't particularly strong—completely within her defensive capabilities. She didn't know that Jiang Chen was only at the Second-stage, a full two hundred levels below her.

Just then, Euphemia made her move. One tail shot towards Jiang Chen, the sound of it tearing through the air rapidly approaching.

So fast!

With a thought, Jiang Chen sent a hundred Sword Auras rapidly shooting out to block the tail.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

The hundred Sword Auras quickly crumbled and vanished.

The tail continued its strike towards Jiang Chen, but he flashed away, nimbly evading the attack. Seeing Jiang Chen dodge, Euphemia attacked again, two tails shooting out rapidly, tracing perfect arcs in the air.

Heizi Weapons: hard as iron, yet extraordinarily flexible.

Jiang Chen continued to dodge. Simultaneously, he activated the [Sword Array] Skill. While evading, he casually unleashed [Sword Blade · Storm], but this Sword Aura was swiftly blocked by her tails.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

No effect? This woman is really tough to deal with! If she's using her Heizi Weapon for defense, could her actual body be weak? Let's test it.

Jiang Chen quickly charged at Euphemia, intending to attack her at close range.

Bartley gasped. "Close-quarters combat with a member of the Cannibal Tribe? Has he lost his mind?"

Angelina asked, "Is there a problem?"

"Of course, there's a problem!" Bartley exclaimed. "The Cannibal Tribe's greatest strength is close combat! Their Heizi Weapons are incredibly versatile—they can extend, retract, and attack at will."

Bartley began to worry. What if Jiang Chen fails? I can't escape on my own! Even with equipment, I wouldn't make it back.

Just then, Euphemia's nine tails swiftly retracted and then launched an attack. However, Jiang Chen could sense each move and continued to evade with ease. Euphemia's attacks were fast, but Jiang Chen's speed was greater.

Euphemia watched as Jiang Chen drew ever closer. She suddenly laughed.

Three of her tails rapidly enlarged, forming an encirclement to trap Jiang Chen. Simultaneously, her other tails formed a smaller defensive sphere around herself.

Jiang Chen's expression changed. She can do that too?

Hidden within her defensive sphere, Euphemia burst into crazed laughter. "You utter fool! We are invincible in close combat. What makes you think you're qualified to fight me up close?"

Jiang Chen casually swung his thin sword, striking the sphere.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

"Your Sword Qi Attacks can't break my defense! This is a perfect defensive form, and you can't escape this encirclement either."

Jiang Chen surveyed his surroundings. The enclosed space was about the size of a basketball court, with Euphemia protected at its very center. Jiang Chen silently pondered, searching for an escape route.

"Your flesh must be delicious. I'm in no hurry to kill you now."

"Hmph! You think you can kill me?"

"Is that so? Then let me show you my true strength."

After she spoke, the outer sphere began to shrink slowly. Jiang Chen could clearly feel the space constricting around him; she was evidently trying to trap him by crushing him within it.
