The night sky stirred, and the stars shattered. Then, the Lunar Star in the banner exploded.
When his life Magic Treasure shattered, Fu Hongyao vomited a mouthful of blood. His complexion turned incredibly pale, making him look very pitiful.
"Bang!"
A figure of light appeared in the dark Starry Heavens. Xiao Chen punched this lovable face, sending Fu Hongyao flying out of the platform and falling to the ground.
Fu Hongyao covered his face with one hand, feeling very embarrassed. This was the first time he had met such a ruthless man. He clenched his teeth and said, "We will meet again. Xiao Chen, don't let me run into you again."
"Two!"
Xiao Chen thought to himself. Then, he flipped his hand, and the Lunar Shadow Saber appeared in his hand again. Xiao Chen ignored the other party and charged at Xing Jue, who was closest. Black wind blew, and ghostly cries rang out.
The huge ax continued to dance around Xing Jue's fingers. When Xing Jue saw Xiao Chen charging over, he laughed boldly and said, "Good timing. Let's see who will send who flying this time!"
The huge ax suddenly stopped dancing. Xiao Chen grasped it firmly with one hand. The storm that had been accumulating for a long time covered Xing Jue's entire body like a Storm Battle Armor.
The peach blossoms bloomed, the summer sun rose, the autumn wind blew, and the winter snow drifted. Flawless Four Seasons, growing and multiplying endlessly.
As Xiao Chen ran, mysterious phenomena appeared around him. By the time he met Xing Jue, the Four Seasons Dao had completely materialized. When he swung his saber, it grew and multiplied endlessly.
"Bang!"
A deafening sound rang out as the entire King's Ceremony Platform shattered into pieces. Xing Jue's black Storm Battle Armor shattered. Then, Xiao Chen's aura knocked him high into the air.
Xiao Chen's momentum did not decrease. He soared into the air, taking advantage of Xing Jue's falling aura to launch a frenzied attack.
The two in the air seemed to move in slow motion. Every move they made was clear to everyone. This was the most berserk way of fighting, relying on absolute strength to exchange moves with moves.
In less than 10 moves, he'd struck space to the point it shook like waves, and it formed numerous spatial storms that whistled to and fro.
This startled everyone who saw it. If a regular Martial Sage was swept by this spatial storm, they would die instantly.
Thud!
With another move, the huge ax in Xing Tian's hand flew away. Then, Xiao Chen swung the back of his saber and sent Xing Tian's stout body flying like a sandbag.
"Three!"
Just as he finished chanting in his heart, Di Wuque, who was on the Divine Kingdom, suddenly opened his eyes.
The Divine Kingdom under his feet solidified, bringing with it a boundless godly light as it pressed down, ready to crush Xiao Chen with a single blow.
Loud rumbling sounds rang out continuously. The solidified image of the Divine Kingdom covered the entire King's Conferral Platform and pressed down like lightning.
When the Divine Kingdom descended, Xiao Chen looked extremely small. The entire Tianwu Plaza trembled violently.
However, Xiao Chen paid a huge price for this attack. After the Divine Kingdom descended, the entire Divine Kingdom vanished. Even the image no longer existed, unable to be summoned.
Di Wuque hovered in the air, radiating a dazzling light as his white hair fluttered in the wind.
As Xiao Chen looked at the ruined platform, he smiled coldly to himself. This meticulously prepared attack prevented him from summoning the Divine Kingdom for three years. This Primordial Treasure.
Even the Blue Robed Emperor was severely injured, what more a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage? Even if Xiao Chen did not die, he would be crippled.
"Sorry, I was too heavy-handed and accidentally destroyed this Bushin Palace's King's Conferral Platform." Di Wuque performed a cupped-fist salute and said indifferently to the elders in the distance, "It is time for the King conferral ceremony to end."
It ended just like that?
The cultivators present all felt dissatisfied. They had seen Xiao Chen defeat three people in a row and thought that victory was in sight. However, Di Wuque's lightning-quick strike extinguished the hope that had just rekindled.
The Divine Kingdom was a Primordial Emperor Treasure. It was a supreme existence with a long inheritance. Few in the world could rival it.
Di Wuque drained his Mental Energy and paid the price of not being able to summon the image of the Emperor Treasure for three years. When Xiao Chen materialized the image of the Divine Kingdom and executed a peak strike, even the Blue Robed Emperor would be severely injured.
However, that was only in theory. In a real battle, the Blue Robed Emperor would definitely not give Di Wuque that much time to prepare.
It was only because Xiao Chen was delayed by Xie Zixuan, Fu Hongyao, and Xing Jue that gave Di Wuque the opportunity to make his move. Otherwise, in a one-on-one fight, victory would be hard to determine.
"Is it over?" The black-clad old man hosting the ceremony held the Blue Dragon King's insignia in his hand and muttered, "This price is rather high."
The King conferral platform had turned into rubble. Xiao Chen had stripped the insignia of Xiao Hou Jue, whom the three Holy Lord had placed their hopes on, and tossed it somewhere.
For the sake of preventing a certain name from appearing, the price was rather high.
"Di Wuque's final strike was too exaggerated. Xiao Chen's loss was not unjustified."
"While it was unjustified, it was too unfortunate. Xiao Chen's path was arduous, and he fought many battles. Many outstanding talents and various experts fell to his saber. However, he lost at the final hurdle. This makes one sigh."
"In the end, a miracle is impossible."
"Xiao Chen bore the brunt of this attack. I believe that with his strong physical body, he will not die. However, he definitely does not have any combat prowess left."
Whispers resounded. At the final step, Xiao Chen fell at Di Wuque's feet. Everyone felt that this was unexpected but also reasonable.
In the VIP stands, Shui Lingling quietly wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes. The path to King conferral was filled with obstacles, resulting in such an ending. Even if Xiao Chen managed to survive, his heart would be dead.
The Asura Race's Lan Shaobai opened his mouth, feeling strange. He wanted to say something but did not say anything in the end.
Some of the people who were on good terms with Xiao Chen showed sorrowful expressions, sighing endlessly.
"Hahaha! Unexpectedly, I rushed back after so much difficulty and saw this scene. In the end, I, Xiao Hou Jue, will have the last laugh at the King conferral ceremony. "
A disheveled figure quickly descended from the air. This was the Xiao Hou Jue that Xiao Chen had tossed out for hundreds of kilometers.
Xiao Hou Jue ignored his injuries and rushed back in a hurry, not even bothering to change his clothes.
However, the instant he returned, he happened to see Xiao Chen being suppressed by the Divine Kingdom. He immediately rejoiced. Sometimes, happiness came so easily.
The black-clad old man was also overjoyed. He quickly took out the White Tiger King's insignia and headed for the rubble.
Just at this moment, a tiny strand of golden light shot out from the boundless rubble on the King conferral platform.
In the next moment, beams of golden light blossomed like bamboo shoots after the rain. In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of beams of golden light soared into the sky, dazzling everyone's eyes. No one dared to look at them directly.
Xiao Hou Jue showed a shocked expression. "What's going on?"
The expression of Di Wuque, who was preparing to leave, changed slightly. Confusion appeared in his eyes as he stopped in the air.
"Boom!"
Golden statues burst out from the rubble, emitting a brilliant glow.
The statues all had different appearances and weapons. The only similarity was the King's Might that flowed from their bodies. The might of hundreds of statues overlapped, inspiring fear in one's heart.
"That scared me. So, it is just a group of King statues."
Upon seeing the situation, Xiao Hou Jue heaved a clear sigh of relief. He thought that Xiao Chen had come out again.
"That's not right!"
Di Wuque's expression changed drastically. He saw Xiao Chen standing among the hundreds of statues with his eyes closed. His entire body shone with golden light as his injuries slowly recovered.
Xiao Chen had already taken off the Neptune headscarf on his forehead. He now gave off a boundless King's Might, even stronger than the hundreds of King statues around him.
The Blue Dragon King, the King of Kings!
The little Blue Dragon in Xiao Chen's dantian roared ferociously. Dragon Might and Holy Might gathered into a supreme King's Might.
Under the pressure of this King's Might, the many golden statues prostrated themselves, forming a golden path in the air, forming a King's Road.
Xiao Hou Jue's expression changed dramatically. Shock filled his eyes as he thought quickly. Right now, Xiao Chen was just an empty shell. The scene of Di Wuque injuring him was definitely not an illusion.
Even the Blue Robed Emperor would not be able to put up a fight.
Although Xiao Chen was severely injured and did not have time to recover on the way here, he should still be able to deal with this fellow who was putting on a false front.
At this thought, a ruthless look flashed in Xiao Hou Jue's eyes. He laughed loudly, "What a great Xiao Chen! At the crucial moment, you actually completely awakened the Dragon Might of the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit. Unfortunately, the one to be conferred King today is me, Xiao Hou Jue! "
Xiao Chen's figure flashed, and a boundless aura appeared. A strong wind that was taller than the sky, wider than the ground, fiercer than the river, vaster than the sea gathered behind him.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen arrived before Xiao Chen. Then, he quickly pointed at Xiao Chen's forehead.
In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen raised his right hand and instantly grabbed Xiao Hou Jue's wrist.
"Boom!"
A bolt of Divine Thunder roared. What kind of thunder was this? Just the sound alone made the entire Tianwu City shake like there was an earthquake.
Buildings collapsed. The eardrums of the low-ranked cultivators shattered, and they fainted on the spot.
A strand of electric light tore through space. A Great Roc made of lightning appeared in the sky together with the Divine Thunder.
The Great Roc spread its wings, and a strong wind blew. The Bushin Palace, which was hidden in the clouds, seemed to move.
"This is the will of thunder of the Thunder King, Sang Mu. How could Xiao Chen execute it?!"
Everyone was startled. Their complexions paled as they trembled before this Thunder Roc, their eyes filled with confusion.
Why did Xiao Chen execute the manifestation of the Thunder King's will?
"Hey, Ao Jiao, there is no need for you to cause such a huge commotion, right?!"
"Hehe! I just woke up and am not familiar with my own strength yet. However, after not seeing you for a long time, there are many more strange things in your body. "
"Please, I was forced to let it occupy my body. Can you stop looking around?"
"Alright, alright. Just focus on recuperating. Leave the rest to me. Hey! I was so focused on talking to you that I nearly forgot that I am still dragging someone with me. I'll toss him away first. "
"Whoosh!"
On the Sovereign's Road paved with golden statues, "Xiao Chen" casually flung out Xiao Hou Jue, who was already charred by the lightning, and turned into a meteor flying far away. No one knew where he went or where he landed.
"Xiao Chen" did not even look at this person. Then, he shifted his gaze to the exhausted Di Wuque. His lips curled up in a mischievous smile that only Ao Jiao had.
Di Wuque felt a chill. He vaguely felt that something was wrong with Xiao Chen, like something had changed. However, he could not tell what was wrong.
However, when Di Wuque saw the strange smile on "Xiao Chen's" face, he knew that he had to leave. Xiao Chen's Mental Energy was drained, and he was in a weakened state. He was no match for Xiao Chen now.
