Chapter 116 Retreat

at the same time.

Xizhou.

Hu Jicheng.

The barrier covering the whole city suddenly shattered, and the darkness was immediately dispersed by the sunlight.

Chen Li swung the knife diagonally, and the blood on the blade fell to the ground, and then turned into fly ash and dissipated.

"This time, there was no sword-shin ghost in the fall."

Beside Chen Li, stood a dozen warriors, most of whom were swordsmen.

One of them, a male swordsman with a vicissitudes of life, a slightly thin body and dressed in luxurious clothes, bowed deeply to Chen Li and said, "Thank you for coming to the rescue, sir. I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of Hu Jicheng."

Because they arrived in time and the invading ghosts had no sword heart, Hu Jicheng's losses were not serious.

"No need."

Chen Li shook his head, turned around and left.

At this time, someone came in a hurry from outside the city.

His speed is extremely fast, and he is the master of enlightenment.

He is a member of the Dawn Organization and came here to report the news.

"Elder Huang and Elder Qiao of Sword Sect have both turned into ghosts..."

Upon hearing the news, everyone present, including Chen Li, fell silent.

Elder Huang and Elder Qiao were very familiar to Chen Li. These two were the elders of his branch of the Sword Sect. When he was appointed as the elder of the Sword Sect in the meeting hall, those two elders were among them.

They are all Kenshin, over a hundred years old, and they don't have many years left to live.

Chen Li thought about how the elders reacted when he learned that Jiang Xuantong turned into a ghost when he left the meeting hall...

"Another strong swordsman turned into a ghost..."

The accompanying Dawn members pondered: "Chief, are you going to intercept and kill them?"

Among their group, apart from Chen Li, there were two Kenshins, and the rest were all Tongyou. If they acted together, they would have a high probability of successfully intercepting the two Kenshin ghosts.

"No need, let's go back." Chen Li said thoughtfully, "After we go back, hurry up and practice the 'Tiangang Sword Formation'."

"The upheaval...is about to begin."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked and asked what the drastic change was.

Chen Li said: "In fact, there has always been a connection between those veteran Kenshin experts."

"Jiang Xuantong's ghost transformation is just an introduction."

"Next, more and more Kenshins who are unwilling to die will turn into ghosts."

After founding the Dawn Organization, Chen Li's understanding of the world deepened.

He also knew why the elders of the Sword Sect reacted so strangely after Jiang Xuantong turned into a ghost.

Because Jiang Xuantong has always been in contact with them.

Jiang Xuantong's ghost transformation was equivalent to giving them a direction to continue living and creating an unprecedented path.

After hearing the news, everyone was shocked, and then decided to become stronger to cope with the drastic changes.

In today's Dawn Organization, excluding Chen Li, there are twenty strong Kenshins, accounting for one-fifth of all human Kenshins. They are already considered the number one force in mankind.

Of the twenty sword hearts, six of them are old men, and their life span is not much longer than that of Jiang Xuantong.

However, unlike other veteran Kenshin warriors, they are not afraid of death and are dedicated to killing ghosts and saving people. They are true heroes for the people.

The remaining fourteen people are all geniuses Kenshin under the age of sixty. They are the most talented group of humans in this world except Chen Li.

"Troubled times are coming, and the struggle between humans and ghosts... everything comes together in one fell swoop."

Chen Li looked at the sky. The clouds were surging, and his dark eyes were as deep as the sea.

"But please don't worry."

Chen Li's voice was like the truth in the world, containing absolute confidence, which calmed everyone's originally slightly anxious hearts.

"The one who wins in the end must be us."

Say why?

Because, after three consecutive months of exploration covering almost all parts of the world, he had initially determined the location of the Ghost King. At the same time, he had also captured the opportunity to become a heavenly being and could start retreating for enlightenment at any time.

Chen Li is confident that he will kill the Ghost King before he turns twenty.

Once the ghost king dies, the ghosts will naturally collapse.

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison, looking at Chen Li with admiration in their eyes. Later, everyone returned to the Xizhou stronghold.

At the same time, Chen Li began to retreat into heaven.

This time in retreat, he was not able to travel anywhere like before. From Kenshin to Heavenly Being, he needed continuous enlightenment.

As for the time it will take, Chen Li still doesn’t know.

Therefore, before the retreat, Chen Li specifically ordered to reduce ghost-killing activities and no longer take the initiative to kill ghosts everywhere. He would only rescue people when a city or certain villages fell, so that they could use this time to accumulate strength.

Not many people knew about the news that Chen Li had entered the Heavenly Seclusion. They were all core members of Liming, including Wen Tianshi, the original lord of Du'an City.

After knowing that Chen Li was going to become a heavenly being, they were extremely excited.

How many years? Human beings are finally going to be born again!

The King of Ghosts is dead, and the hope for mankind to completely get rid of ghosts is just around the corner.

After a simple farewell, Chen Li left alone.

He was going to find a place to retreat.

……

night.

Chen Li flew in the air and soon arrived in a forest somewhere in Dongzhou.

Not only ghosts are around here, but even humans rarely set foot there.

The reason why I chose this kind of place to retreat is because I don’t want to be disturbed, so as not to miss the mark.

Later, Chen Li came to an ancient tree.

This ancient tree is so thick that even five people cannot completely surround it.

Feeling it carefully, he found that the spiritual energy around this ancient tree was stronger than in other places. Although it was still quite thin, it was still acceptable.

ten minutes later.

A coffin appeared in front of Chen Li.

This was something he had just made using local materials.

This retreat is a retreat in the true sense.

He must devote himself wholeheartedly to comprehending the heavens and beings. If he interrupts, the opportunity he finally grasped will be wasted.

After much thought, Chen Li felt that burying himself underground would be the safest way so that no one would discover him.

Immediately afterwards, with a thought in his mind, Chen Li used his sword energy to easily open a hole under the ancient tree, then placed the coffin in it and lay down in it himself.

In less than a minute, Chen Li's figure had disappeared, and the traces of digging the hole were covered up.

No one would have thought that there would be a person buried underground here.

……

time flies.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

The dispute has begun. In the past six months, even if "Dawn" has not taken the initiative to kill ghosts, the number of ghost attacks on human cities has not decreased at all.

In fact, because of Chen Li's seclusion, more cities fell and could not be saved, completely becoming ghost towns.

In the past six months, more than ten strong men at the Kenshin level have taken the initiative to become ghosts.

The war between humans and ghosts has become increasingly fierce.

into the night.

In the silent forest, there was a sudden noise.

"Come on!"

"Just a little bit! He can't run very far!"

One after another, two groups of people chased each other in the forest.

There was only one person in front of him, but his figure was weird and his back was covered with spikes. He was obviously a ghost.

Behind them is a team of five people. They are wearing white Taoist uniforms and have sword patterns on their chests. They are disciples of the Sword Sect.

The leader was Xiao Xue, who had met Chen Li once in Du'an City.
