The Time of Separation
Long Chen and Qing Xuan stood in the wilderness outside the Imperial Capital. The two of them leaned against each other for more than eight hours.
After that, Long Chen abruptly stood up and looked towards the horizon with rapt attention …
The void was torn apart like a black flame burning in the sky.
Two old men slowly walked out with a young man. The surrounding space trembled uncontrollably, and ripples spread out like the surface of a lake. It was extremely terrifying!
Long Chen's pupils shrank as he stared at the three of them.
These two elderly men were Dao Integration Stage mighty figures who had already manifested soul seeds. Their bodies were indestructible, and their divine intents were indestructible!
Spirit Martial Arts, Soul Formation, Void Returning, Dao Integration …
Such experts had long surpassed the peak combat power of the Black Dragon Empire and even the Five Major Sects. Any one of them could easily destroy the Five Major Sects!
"What a rich Nine Yin bloodline. More than ten years ago, it was because of the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth when Young Miss was born that she was kidnapped by that crazy woman. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. I didn't expect that she still hasn't ruthlessly killed Young Miss …"
The two old men were very excited. They moved and appeared beside Qing Xuan and Long Chen in the next moment.
Qing Xuan's complexion turned pale, and he subconsciously stuck close to Long Chen. This scene fell into the eyes of the young man called Zhu Yin Zhong, who was standing behind the two old men. Suddenly, a trace of dense killing intent flashed in his eyes. In an instant, icicles fell from the air, and crystal light scattered in all directions.
"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you blaspheme the daughter of the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe's Clan Leader!" the man shouted. His eyes were like lightning as he glared at Long Chen. The pressure from his body soared into the sky.
However, while Long Chen was fine, Qing Xuan's complexion turned deathly pale in an instant. This change caused the two old men's complexions to change greatly. They hurriedly shouted, "Young Master Yin Zhong, stop! Young Miss's cultivation is extremely low right now …"
Zhu Yinzhong seemed to realize that something was wrong and quickly dispersed his aura.
Long Chen's expression darkened as he stared at the three of them. "You three are the Dao Integration Stage powerhouses of the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe? Do you have a yin candle to prove your identity? "
The two old men were Dao Integration Stage powerhouses, and even the young man had reached the Initial Stage of Void Return. According to the timeline, these people should be members of the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe. However, Long Chen was still a little worried, so he wanted to confirm it.
Long Chen's words startled the two elders. They stared intently at Long Chen and found it amusing. Long Chen was less than twenty years old, and his cultivation base was only at the Spirit Martial Stage. He was like an ant, but he showed no signs of fear in the face of two Dao Integration Stage mighty figures.
He even knew that every member of the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe had to carry a token …
Although the two of them were puzzled, they could see that the relationship between Long Chen and Qing Xuan wasn't ordinary. Therefore, they waved their right hands and a cold candle flame appeared in their hands.
Long Chen nodded. He had seen the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe in his previous life. This tribe considered themselves to be the inheritor of the Candle Dragon's bloodline. For generations, they worshipped the Candle Dragon, who had a human face, a dragon body, and a candle flame in his mouth. Therefore, every member of the Jiuyin ancient people would carry a yin candle as a token.
Zhu Yinzhong, who was standing behind the two old men, stared at Long Chen with disdain. As the foster son of the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe's leader, he immediately thought of proposing marriage to the leader after hearing that Qing Xuan was still alive. That way, he would be able to control the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe one day.
Before coming here, he had already proposed marriage to the leader, and even the wedding date had been set.
However, the intimacy between Qing Xuan and Long Chen made him very unhappy, especially when he found out that Long Chen was only at the Spirit Martial Stage …
"Qing Xuan, leave with them. Believe me, I will go to the Ancient Desolate Land to look for you in a year or two!" Long Chen gently patted Qing Xuan's shoulder.
Since Qing Xuan had the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe's bloodline, she would definitely be able to obtain the best cultivation method in the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe. Not to mention, she was the daughter of the leader of the Nine Yin Giant Corpse Tribe, which made Long Chen feel a lot more relieved.
"Young Master, don't worry. Qing Xuan will wait for you no matter what!" Qing Xuan cried like a weeping beauty. In the end, she flew away with the two old men.
Zhu Yinzhong narrowed his eyes and slowly walked to Long Chen's side. He sneered in his ear and said, "I originally wanted to kill you, but now I've changed my mind. I'm not afraid to tell you that the leader has already agreed to betroth Miss to me when she turns eighteen. If you want to come to the Ancient Desolate Land, it's best that you come here within two years. Perhaps you can even attend the wedding … haha."
"It's a pity that you'll only be at the Soul Formation Stage in twenty years, let alone two years. Weaklings are really pitiful!"
Zhu Yinzhong said and flew into the sky. Then, the two Dao Integration Stage elders tore open space again and disappeared into the night sky with them.
Long Chen stared at the sky where Qing Xuan had left and clenched his fists tightly. He said in a deep voice, "Two years. In two years, I'll definitely reach the Void Return Stage or even the Dao Integration Stage. I'll rush out of the five sects and head to the Ancient Desolate Land!"
After saying this, Long Chen turned and left. Reaching the Void Return Stage from the initial stage of the Spirit Martial Realm in two years. If anyone heard this, they would probably laugh it off. Void Return Stage cultivators were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns in the entire Black Dragon Empire. Only the five sects were common.
However, who would have heard of a Void Return Stage cultivator who was less than twenty years old? Long Chen was only sixteen years old now. In two years, he would only be eighteen!
Reaching the Void Return Stage in such a short period of time, Long Chen also felt endless pressure …
When he returned to the Imperial Capital, it was as if no one knew what had happened outside the city. The entire academy was still as quiet as before.
In the residence of the Imperial Academy, Long Chen pushed open the door and entered. He heard a burst of laughter and looked over. He saw two big men sparring with each other. With a sweep of his divine consciousness, he knew that the two of them had reached the peak of the fourth stage of the Spirit Martial Realm and were on the verge of a breakthrough.
"Brother, are you a new roommate? We're practicing our martial arts here. If we disturb you, please don't be offended. "The older man stared at Long Chen and said politely.
Long Chen smiled. Seeing that the two of them were full of loopholes in their sparring, he secretly thought that since they were roommates, they could be considered half a friend. He then said, "Your saber technique is more feminine and is more suitable for women to practice. If you continue like this, you'll get half the result with twice the effort. If you don't want to continue practicing, why don't you remove the first part of each move? This way, the power should be increased by a bit …"
When the two of them heard this, they smiled and didn't say anything. At this point, Long Chen didn't care whether they listened or not. These few days, he was really tired. Qing Xuan's departure made him feel empty in his heart, as if something was missing.
After entering the room, Long Chen fell asleep immediately. The sound of fighting outside the door didn't cause him the slightest bit of trouble.
He slept until midnight. His eyes, which were originally deep in sleep, suddenly opened. A cold light flashed in his eyes as he stared at the door. In the blink of an eye, his divine consciousness covered the entire courtyard …
"Big Brother, this person looks pretty good. What he said today will indeed increase our martial arts. Are we really going to make a move?"
"The second-in-command of the Xing Alliance said that as long as we kill this person, the two of us can become members of the Xing Alliance. Moreover, he will take care of all the consequences. If it wasn't for the fact that the Xing Alliance members are all training in the chaotic battle zone, this kind of good thing wouldn't have happened to us …"
"That's true. He can only blame himself for provoking someone he shouldn't have. The two of us are lucky. If we kill him, not only will we be able to enter the Xing Alliance, we should also be able to obtain a lot of resources!"
