With Gu Zhennan's deterrence, Akabane obviously would not fight Chen Fei directly in public.

But he made up his mind and followed Fade Chen all the way. If he finds a token, he can use the excuse of fighting for the token to attack Fade Chen.

Go to any corner, where the water mirror is not arranged. Even if there is no token, Akabane will do it without hesitation.

This plan seems rogue but effective.

Gu Yu and Gu Tianzhong on the top of the mountain gritted their teeth for a while, and couldn't help but look in the direction of Qian Yongzhi in Duobao Pavilion.

After being silent for a few seconds, Fade Chen looked up at Akabane, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Want to follow me? Then come!"

After finishing speaking, Fade Chen turned into a phantom with a whimper, and rushed into the depths of the valley.

"It's not that simple to escape." Seeing this, Akabane snorted coldly, and then chased after him.

In an instant, the two disappeared within the capture range of the water mirror.

However, Gu Chengzhu waved his hand, switched the water mirror, and soon caught the figures of the two again.

The two moved forward quickly in the valley, one behind the other.

In this way, after walking for about a quarter of an hour, Fade Chen suddenly slowed down and rushed towards a raised hill ahead, and Akabane followed immediately.

Across the hillside, Fade Chen slapped a palm, and his vitality shattered a snow-covered stone.

The stone shattered, and a palm-sized token flew out of it, shining with golden light, very dazzling.

Obviously, this is the token that City Lord Gu placed in the valley.

With a volley grab with his right hand, Fade Chen wanted to grab the token into his hand.

But at this moment, Akabane, who was chasing after him, snarled and rushed over, "The token is mine."

While grabbing the token with his left hand, Akabane drew out a half-human-high sword with his right hand. The blade was not an ordinary metal color, but a dazzled flame-like red.

"Whoever fights for more tokens, die!"

Akabane held the flaming saber in his hand, and slashed towards Fade Chen.

At this moment, Fade Chen's eyes were calm, without a hint of panic, and even a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He didn't care about the token flying in the air, instead, taking advantage of the opportunity when Akabane was grabbing the token, he clenched his fist with his right hand and slammed his fist at Akabane's chest.

"Small tricks!"

Sensing Fade Chen's offensive, Akabane snorted coldly, showing a disdainful smile, and slashed down at Fade Chen's arm with the flaming saber in his hand.

"boom!"

Fade Chen's punch was cut in half by Akabane's flaming saber and shattered, causing him no harm at all.

At the same time, the golden token flew into Akabane's hands.

With a proud and proud expression on his face, he looked at Fade Chen and said, "Kneel down and beg for mercy, and then hand over the Duobao Pavilion money and treasures you got, and I can give you a good time."

"Do you really think that you will win?" Fade Chen looked at the confident Chi Yu, shook his head, and said with a smile.

Akabane frowned and snorted coldly: "Fearless struggle is meaningless. You—"

At this moment, Akabane's complexion suddenly changed, he turned his head to look at his left hand, and hurriedly shook his hand, intending to throw out the token in his hand.

But, by the time he found out, it was already too late.

The golden token, almost in Akabane's hand, burst open with a bang.

A scorching flame exploded, contaminating Akabane's body, and burning quickly.

At the same time, the energy of the explosion, like a series of small sharp swords, stabbed towards Akabane.

"You sneak attack—" Akabane was furious, and stared at Fade Chen fiercely.

But soon, he was in no mood to scold Fade Chen angrily. Because he was surprised to find that the vitality he oscillated couldn't extinguish the flames on his body.

Those tiny flames, like gangrene attached to the bone, spread rapidly after they touched his skin, from the skin to the flesh and blood to the bones.

In just a few breaths, a small half of Akabane's left arm was burned off.

"What is this, you—" Chi Yu glared at Fade Chen fiercely.

Of course, Fade Chen would not talk nonsense with him, and pointed at him like a sword, a stream of red light slashed towards him.

"call out!"

Akabane dodged in a hurry, barely avoiding Fade Chen's sword.

But at this time, the flame burning on his left arm became more and more vigorous, and only half of his forearm was left.

Seeing this, Akabane gritted his teeth fiercely, swung the big knife with his right hand, and chopped off with one stroke, cutting off the forearm from the arm.

Then, quickly condense the breath and seal the wound.

Broken half of an arm is not a serious injury for Chi Yu who is in the eighth level of Yuansoul Realm. As long as you go back and take the medicine and rest for a while, you will be able to grow back.

But the current situation dealt a severe blow to his psychology.

After all, Akabane was full of confidence just now, and said that he would single out and smash Chen Fei into thousands of pieces.

As a result, just after the first fight, he was plotted against by Fade Chen and used a fake token to cripple half of his arm.

Moreover, there are countless masters and people from Nanyan City outside.

For Akabane, this was simply a great humiliation.

Immediately, Chi Yu gritted his teeth, with a scarlet light in his eyes, glared at Fade Chen fiercely, and let out a stern roar, "Fade Chen, I'm going to kill you."

"Blade of Flame!"

With a sharp roar, a ball of light flew out from behind Akabane, and condensed into a large sword burning with flames.

This broadsword is exactly Chibane's Yuan Seal, the fifth-rank human-level flame blade. This Yuanyin broadsword is very similar in shape to the broadsword held by Akabane.

In other words, the weapon in Akabane's hand was tailor-made according to his perception of Yuan Yin.

Yuan Yin was inspired to walk, and a mass of red flames bloomed, which condensed into the broadsword in Akabane's hand.

Suddenly, the big knife in his hand seemed to have life force, exuding a sharp and scorching aura, and came towards Fade Chen.

"cut!"

The big knife slashed out, a red light pierced the sky, and the scorching breath melted the icy frost and snow in the Frost Valley, and steamed up clouds of water mist, making people unable to see the situation clearly. I could see that eye-catching blade glow, getting bigger and stronger, slashing towards Fade Chen.

"boom!"

Fade Chen seemed to be stupefied by fright. He stood there without moving, and was directly cut by the knife light.

Then, the raised earth, rock, dust and mist from melting ice and snow enveloped Fade Chen, making it impossible to see what was going on inside.

For a while, the scene fell into silence.

Countless people staring at the water mirror were full of eagerness and chattered.

"Akabane has made a unique move. That knife seems to have hit Fade Chen."

"What's the result, I can't see anything clearly!"

"Akabane should win."

"This is not a question of whether to win or not, but a question of whether Chen Fei can survive."

………

On the top of the mountain, Qian Yongzhi from Duobao Pavilion, with a faint smile on his lips, looked around, glanced at Gu Yu and Gu Tianzhong, and said calmly: "Trick me at Duobao Pavilion, and this is the end."

Gu Yu and Gu Tianzhong's expressions darkened, with anger and dissatisfaction on their faces, but they still didn't say anything.

Not far away, Gu Han began to sneer and sneer, "Hey, didn't some people say that they should rely on their own ability to win the ten-thousand-year ice core? I thought it was so powerful, but it turned out to be this strength. Ha ha!"

"You—" Gu Yu couldn't hold back his anger, turned around and glared, about to get angry.

But at this moment, an exclamation sounded.

"Look at the water mirror."

In an instant, everyone looked at the water mirror in the sky.

The smoke, dust and mist that filled the room just now were blown away by a gust of wind, and everyone could finally see the scene inside clearly.

A gully tens of meters long was formed at the place where Akabane used Yuan Yin's unique move to slash open with a single knife. The surrounding area of ​​the gully was full of powder shattered by the knife energy.

However, where Fade Chen was originally, there is only a pothole at the moment, and no one can be seen.

On the contrary, Akabane, who attacked, fell to the ground at this moment, his eyes widened, and he looked at the sky with an expression of disbelief.

And between his eyebrows, a small blood hole appeared.

The blood hole was not big, but it penetrated Akabane's brain, causing him to die instantly, so dead that he couldn't die anymore.

Such a scene, falling into the eyes of everyone, surprised and confused countless people.

"Here, what's going on here?"

"Why is Akabane dead, and where did Chen Fei go? Is he still alive?"

"Could it be that someone secretly helped and killed Akabane just now? What happened?"

"If it was Fade Chen's hand, how did he do it? It was Chibane's Yuan Yin trick just now, how did he block it and counterattack at the same time?"

………

Countless voices of doubt sounded.

On the top of the mountain, Qian Yongzhi, who was still full of complacency just now, changed his expression drastically, stared at Gu Tianzhong fiercely, gritted his teeth, and said sharply: "What did you do?"

Gu Tianzhong sneered, and said: "What is the meaning of Pavilion Master Qian's words? Are you provoking my Gu family?"

"You—" Qian Yongzhi gritted his teeth to hold back his anger, then looked at Gu Zhennan, and said, "The city lord—"

With a light tap of his finger, Gu Zhennan switched more than a dozen water mirrors one after another.

Finally, Fade Chen's figure was captured in a water mirror.

At this moment, Fade Chen, clutching his abdomen, with blood on the corner of his mouth, ran along a mountain foot quickly. In the end, he hid in a cave, sat down and began to meditate to heal his injuries.

Seeing this, Qian Yongzhi gritted his teeth, "He's still alive."

The onlookers were also extremely surprised.

"Akabane is dead, but Fade Chen is still alive, what a surprise!"

"Looking at Fade Chen, he's also injured!"

"Injury is certain, after all, Chiyu is a master at the eighth level of Yuanhun Realm."

"Akabane is dead, and Fade Chen is injured. I'm afraid I can't compete with other contestants. This is at the expense of others!"

"Hey, if you don't hold a group, that's the end."

………

Amidst the discussion, Fade Chen seemed to be seriously injured, and stuffed a lot of pills into his mouth, but the blood at the corner of his mouth was still surging.

He sat in the cave, meditating with all his strength to heal his wounds, and seemed to have no strength to fight anymore.

Just like that, after waiting quietly for a while, seeing that Fade Chen hadn't moved, Gu Zhennan switched the mirror and focused on the other contestants.
