Xu Jing said, "It’s not that you are ignorant, it’s just that many people do not know of this. I only knew this because I read about this in some old book, it was recorded on it that ten thousand years ago, there was a sect called Boundless Strength Sect. Everyone in this sect would only train their physical bodies. Those with the strength of ten thousand Jin would only be eligible to be a janitor, those with thirty thousand Jin strength would be considered an outer court disciple, those with fifty thousand Jin strength would be an inner court disciple, those with eighty thousand Jin strength would be a core disciple. Outer Court elders would have the strength of at least two hundred thousand jin, Inner Court elders would have the strength of three hundred thousand jin, the sect leader and the few elders at the top all had strength of about five hundred thousand Jin or more. They were so tyrannical that they could even kill the dragon of the East Sea and the shark god of the West Sea."
Wu Zongming and the three female students were also listening intently, but they were unable to completely believe it in their hearts, ‘was there really someone in the world that was able to train their physical strength to five hundred thousand and even up to a million Jin?’
"Where is this Boundless Strength Sect, did they perish?" Ye Chen asked.
Xu Jing nodded, "It seems like the heavens did not allow the existence of the Boundless Strength Sect, the whole mountain, which was the base of the sect was flattened overnight. Someone found a piece of dragon scale in the ruins, it was as big as a wash basin. It could even cut metal like mud. It had an unparalleled sharpness to it. Rumour has it that the dragon gods descended to Earth and exterminated the whole Boundless Strength Sect. That piece of dragon scale was said to have been left from the battle between the sect leader and the few top elders with the dragon god."
"Dragon god, that’s exaggerating! That is a legendary existence who had overcome the constraints of life and death. Someone who could not die or perish, and could travel the whole world without any obstruction," one of the female students exclaimed.
Xu Jing gave her a look, "The vastness of the world is not something you can understand, even those strong people that had overcome the limitations of life and death have yet to realize the truth, let alone us."
Ye Chen smiled bitterly, his strength would be equivalent to janitor in the Boundless Strength Sect, not even an outer court, he really could not imagine how hard the disciples of the Boundless Strength Sect trained to achieve that level of physical strength.
Half a day went by, it was already afternoon.
They had already travelled with great speed to the central location of the northwest plains. If they looked ahead, all they could see was only a line where the sky and the plains seemed to converge. There were no boundaries as the clouds slowly enlarged till they covered the sky over their heads.
"There are noises of horse hoofs behind us!"
Ye Chen focused on his ears and heard the noise.
Xu Jing nodded, "They came earlier than I expected."
Wu Zongming felt strange, and asked: "Senior sister, did you already know that someone was looking for trouble with us?"
"Ouyang Ming and the horse bandits of the north-west plains have an inextricable relationship, he would often borrow their hands to surround and kill off the disciples of the opposing sects. This isn’t the first time and it won’t be the last either, we just don’t know which group of horse bandits this is."
"Damn, he even conspired with the horse bandits of the plains" The three female students felt angry.
Gallop gallop ......
They were able to hear the galloping noises emerging from the horses as they gradually became louder. Everyone was already able to see the clothing and appearance of the horse bandits riding towards them.
"When I say move, kill and break out of the encirclement. I will bring up the rear." Xu Jing’s decisive tone was awe-inspiring.
"Senior sister!"
"Stop talking anymore nonsense, there are even experts of the Clasping Yuan Realm among them, do not underestimate them."
The horses were running very quickly, they were in front of them in just a few moments. There were more than fifty horse bandits. There were at least seven or eight of them with a strong presence, they were obviously warriors of the late Condensing Reality Realm. One of them had a face filled with a beard, with a lot more condensed Zhen Qi that was of unparalleled purity, he was definitely a Clasping Yuan Realm warrior.
Just when the horse bandits were about thirty paces away, Xu Jing ordered with her feminine voice, "Breakthrough, kill them."
Then, a horse bandit that was at the late condensing reality realm had his head burst into a mist of blood.
The leader of the Horse bandit group let out an angry roar after he saw that three of his capable men lost their lives in the blink of an eye. He sprang towards Xu Jing, while the thick and vigorous Zhen Qi scraped off a layer of the surface of the ground. He approached her like lightning.
"Demon God Killing Fist, shatter heaven and earth."
Xu Jing did not flinch or avoid the attack, both of her fists resembled a giant demon cutting across the mountains. They hit the horse bandit leader head on.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Even the surrounding horse bandits were affected, they were flung outwards due to the shockwave of the impact, and they spit out mouthfuls of fresh blood as they flew in the air.
Xu Jing had to take three steps back, but she still looked calm. However, her actions were extremely wild. Her white dress fluttered in the air, she attacked the opponent again with her most violent and strongest punch.
On the other side, Ye Chen was surrounded by three vice leaders of the horse bandit gang. Each of them was a late Condensing Reality Realm warrior.
"This kid is quite tricky. Archers, be ready."
At the sound of the order, arrows that were intense like a heavy rain were shot straight at Ye Chen, locking all of his escape routes.
