Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 398 Daoist Hei Shan

On the way up the mountain.

Chen Fan walked up to Li Yunxi’s side and asked, "Master Li, do you know the background of the person who fled into the mountains?"

Li Yunxi said, "The origins of that person are not clear, but he calls himself Daoist Hei Shan. This man is notoriously ruthless, and it’s unknown which evil cultivation skills he has practiced. He takes pleasure in absorbing people’s vital essence. My son was injured by one of his evil techniques and suffered severe injuries."

"Fortunately, I wasn’t far from my son at the time, and I managed to rescue him in time. I exchanged a few moves with Daoist Hei Shan. His strength is formidable, not below mine, and it’s very possible he is an expert of the Transformation Realm Eightfold. It’s for this reason I’ve gathered experts from various places to catch him in the mountains."

Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully, "It seems this person must be from an evil sect."

At this moment, Zhang Shengnan glared at Chen Fan and said, "Why are you asking so many questions? Do you really think you can stand a few moves against Daoist Hei Shan? Let me tell you, if you encounter Daoist Hei Shan later, you’d better hide behind us and not cause any trouble."

Chen Fan glanced at Zhang Shengnan and thought to himself, I just laughed for a moment, why is she targeting me like this.

He said irritably, "If that person is indeed an expert of the Transformation Realm Eightfold, your strength will be of no use; it should be you who hides behind."

Zhang Shengnan snorted softly, "At least I have achieved Great Achievement in Internal Strength, while you’re just following that woman around. What right do you have to talk about me?"

Chen Fan shook his head helplessly, feeling it was impossible to reason with such a person, and retreated back to Su Qingyan’s side.

The group continued upward, searching all around, and before long, they had reached the mountaintop.

"There’s a cave over here!" someone shouted.

The crowd immediately gathered in the direction of the person who had called out.

Soon, everyone had arrived at the entrance to the cave.

Chen Fan sensed a sudden increase in spiritual energy at the entrance of the cave and inferred that there must be treasures inside.

"Daoist Hei Shan is very likely inside this cave. Everyone, stay alert. I will lead the way in to explore," Li Yunxi said.

Everyone focused their minds, ready for combat at any moment.

Just then, a figure swept past them from behind.

Gusts of wind caused everyone’s hearts to tighten.

Li Yunxi frowned and quickly warned, "It’s Daoist Hei Shan, everyone be careful!"

All eyes vigilantly swept the surroundings, only to feel chilling winds and fleeting shadows without being able to pinpoint Daoist Hei Shan’s location.

"Is this the strength of an expert of the Transformation Realm Eightfold? Indeed terrifying!" Zhang Shengnan muttered.

She turned her head and glanced at Chen Fan and Su Qingyan, noticing that Su Qingyan was slightly nervous, but Chen Fan appeared calm, as if nothing had happened, which made her look down on him, "Such an idiot, still not realizing that danger is imminent. He’ll definitely be the first to die."

At that moment, Daoist Hei Shan appeared on a huge rock not far away, looking down at the crowd with a smile, "No need to search, I am here."

The crowd all turned their heads.

Li Yunxi let out a cold snort, "Daoist Hei Shan, you have cultivated evil skills and harmed innocent people, even grievously injuring my son. If you know what’s good for you, surrender now, or when we attack together, you will have nowhere to lay your body in death!"

Daoist Hei Shan laughed coldly, "With just you lot, a bunch of small fries?"

Li Yunxi spoke, "You might be a bit stronger than me, but we have numbers on our side. You alone will not be able to handle us. I advise you to..."

Before he had finished speaking, Daoist Hei Shan let out a hearty laugh; following that, an invisible pressure was released, enveloping the hearts of everyone present.

"Do you really think numbers can defeat me?"

Fear was written on everyone’s faces as they felt as if they couldn’t catch their breath under this oppressive force.

Li Yunxi’s complexion changed dramatically as she exclaimed, "Divine Realm! You’re a Divine Realm expert!"

She then turned her head towards everyone else, "Run! In front of a Divine Realm expert, we stand no chance of fighting back, run! Run as far as you can!"

Daoist Hei Shan sneered, "Run? You are the perfect ingredients for my cultivation technique sacrifice, how could I possibly let you run away!"

He then used his divine skills, releasing streams of blood-red mist from his body, which began to encircle everyone.

Li Yunxi broke into a cold sweat on her forehead, only now realizing she had been tricked.

Zhang Shengnan felt the terrifying power contained within the blood-red mist around her, her complexion turned pale, and her legs began to tremble involuntarily. Merely at the peak of Great Achievement in Internal Strength, the pressure from a Divine Realm master was like the weight of Mount Tai pressing down on her, completely unbearable.

"What should we do, are we just going to die here?" Zhang Shengnan turned to Li Yunxi.

The others were also trembling with fear, their gazes falling upon Li Yunxi.

Li Yunxi looked desperate and murmured, "The opponent is a Divine Realm expert ... we ... only have one path to death!"

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat, feeling a sense of powerlessness through their bodies.

At that moment, Chen Fan, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, started walking towards Daoist Hei Shan; he had already noticed that Daoist Hei Shan was a first-grade Divine Realm practitioner and he could sense a familiar evil aura from him, similar to that which he had once felt from Jiang Yunlei.

Zhang Shengnan, seeing Chen Fan actually walking towards Daoist Hei Shan, cried out in terror, "What are you doing!"

Chen Fan said indifferently, "I am seeking a way out for you."

Zhang Shengnan was speechless, "Are you crazy? Didn’t you hear what my uncle said, that guy is a Divine Realm expert! Those are the legendary strong ones, what do you have to find us a way out!"

Chen Fan chuckled, "Just Divine Realm, not as scary as you think."

Daoist Hei Shan’s gaze also fell on Chen Fan, then he slightly frowned, "Chen Fan?"

Chen Fan revealed a smile, "It seems you really are from the Ghost Witch Sect."

Daoist Hei Shan also didn’t expect to encounter Chen Fan here. He glanced once more at Su Qingyan not far away, his mouth curling into a smile, "I was just thinking of dealing with these people before going to find the two of you. I didn’t expect you to walk right into my trap, saving me a lot of trouble."

Chen Fan stopped, staring at him, "Then you might be thinking too much; we left the Capital precisely to destroy your Ghost Witch Sect. Sending you here will only send you to meet Yama a bit earlier!"

Daoist Hei Shan smirked, "I’d like to see what kind of ability you have to say such words!"

After that, he immediately manipulated the blood-red mist to attack Chen Fan.

Chen Fan stood still, a small gourd appeared in his hand, and then a flash of cold light emerged, reaching Daoist Hei Shan’s forehead in the blink of an eye.

Daoist Hei Shan was taken aback and immediately felt goosebumps all over his body, a sense of imminent death climbing up to his heart, and he was about to retreat backward.

However, Chen Fan, having reached the Golden Core Realm, had further enhanced his control over the Sword Nurturing Gourd, and the speed at which he released Flying Swords had also dramatically increased.

Even though Daoist Hei Shan felt the crisis, he could only watch helplessly as the cold light entered his forehead.
