With the three auspicious stars present, the Holy Spirit Vein in this dragon vein could reach Superior Grade. However, among the many Holy Spirit Veins, it could only be classified as above average.
The reason was that although the three auspicious stars were present at the same time, they were not of outstanding quality.
The Greedy Wolf Peak was flat and pointed, like an unearthed bamboo shoot, sharp on all sides and flat on the top.
The Greedy Wolf Peak before Xiao Chen was uneven at the top and not round at the bottom. The only redeeming feature was that it was rather straight, not skewed, like a sharp sword piercing through the water.
The other two auspicious stars each had their own advantages and disadvantages. There was no need to elaborate on them.
With Xiao Chen's current Dragon Seeking Art, he could find all sorts of stars with just one glance and instantly determine their advantages and disadvantages.
After practicing for more than nine months, Xiao Chen's Dragon Seeking Art improved rapidly. Compared to when he was at the Northern Sea Alliance, he was already much stronger.
When Xiao Chen saw Jiang Tian, he would definitely be shocked and withdraw much of his pride.
No matter what, Jiang Tian would never have imagined that Xiao Chen would undergo such an inhumane cultivation, going to the bottom of the sea for nine months without coming out.
Not to mention the vile environment, just the loneliness and solitude was something that even Jiang Tian might not be able to endure.
Aside from the three auspicious stars, Xiao Chen also discovered the Army Breaker Peak, an ominous star.
The Army Breaker Peak here was both huge and tall. Its aura was much stronger than any of the three auspicious stars.
However, a lone tree cannot make an army. No matter how strong a lone wolf was, when facing the combined might of the three auspicious stars, it would lose. There would not be any mutated evil dragons.
It was just that because of this, the Hidden Dragon Grounds became more dangerous, and there were more uncertainties.
Xiao Chen closed his Heavenly Eye, not feeling too worried. In the past three hundred days, he had faced several situations that were even more dangerous than this.
Xiao Chen's figure flashed and stopped on the Greedy Wolf Peak. After confirming the dragon cave, with a thought, the Dragon Revealing Mirror flew out of his body.
Hundreds of formations were embedded on the edges of the ancient bronze mirror. Xiao Chen formed hand seals with both hands, and the patterns on the edges spun like gears.
The formation hidden within the Dragon Revealing Mirror began to perform precise and complicated calculations. A moment later, a purple pillar of light shot out from the silence.
Opening the acupoint was done in one step. Amid a loud rumble, the surrounding mountains collapsed one by one, and the cracks on the ground expanded rapidly.
Not long after, the mountain under Xiao Chen's feet collapsed in just a few breaths' time.
Xiao Chen remained unperturbed. He calmly sank along with the mountain.
Rumble!
Hundreds of Guard Mountains in the north flew toward Xiao Chen like giant cannonballs amidst the tumbling and chaotic seawater. They carried the power of the Blue Robed Emperor, which was equivalent to an attack from the Blue Robed Emperor.
Xiao Chen moved his right hand behind him and a long spear appeared in his hand. Xiao Chen gripped the spear tightly. Purple Thunder Fire blazed on the spear's body.
Flames were burning in the water. This was a wonderful sight, and it looked extremely strange.
A spear burning the heavens!
Xiao Chen shouted in his heart. He pushed off the water and took a step forward. Then, he thrust his spear forward.
The might of Xiao Chen's Profound Martial Technique was unleashed without holding anything back. Time seemed to stop for a moment.
In the next moment, the seawater flowed backward. Fifty kilometers of seawater in all directions surged up in the direction of Xiao Chen's spear.
The entire stretch of seawater curled up like a piece of cloth. The hundreds of approaching mountains could no longer advance under such might.
Looking down from the sky, one would see a three-kilometer-tall tsunami rising from the surface of the sea without any wind or waves. It looked like the end of the world.
As the surging seawater slowly rose, Xiao Chen's feet, followed by his torso, and finally his brain. When he looked around, there was a large empty space.
This was a rare opportunity. Xiao Chen took a deep breath. After a while, he closed his eyes and waited quietly for the seawater to fall.
"Boom!"
The seawater suddenly fell. As it rose and fell, it erupted with a huge force, shattering the mountains and boulders in the seawater in an instant.
When Xiao Chen looked back, he saw that the eight ferocious beasts in the southern mountains had all leaped out.
A smile appeared on Xiao Chen's face as he put away his spear, not even bothering to look at it. Then, he tossed out the Dragon Fixing Needles behind him, forming a Dragon Sealing Formation and trapping the Spirit Vein escaping underground.
At the same time, Xiao Chen's intense battle unfolded. The weapons in his hands quickly changed. Saber, spear, sword, halberd, staff, leg techniques, and fist techniques, he executed ten different Profound Martial Techniques.
Xiao Chen moved among the ten ferocious beasts that were as strong as the Small Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. As he fought intensely, he practiced the various Profound Martial Techniques of the Changing Character Formula.
After nine months of cultivation, Xiao Chen had clearly improved. Not only could he execute every Profound Martial Technique with familiarity, but he even gained his own comprehension of them.
The Profound Martial Techniques that Xiao Chen executed were very natural. If not for his appearance, it would be impossible to guess that Xiao Chen was a bladesman.
Four hours later, Xiao Chen killed all the ferocious beasts. Then, Xiao Chen spat out a mouthful of turbid Qi. The Qi was like a sword piercing five kilometers away.
This was Xiao Chen's advantage. If it were another Geomaster, even if they could find Spirit Veins of various grades, they would not be able to deal with the ten ferocious beasts alone.
However, without Xiao Chen's combat prowess, they would not be able to deal with the ten ferocious beasts alone. It would be impossible for them to subdue the Spirit Vein alone.
With a thought, the Dragon Revealing Mirror spun again. A red light surging with killing Qi shot out from it and chopped at the Spirit Vein Roaming Dragon sealed by the Dragon Fixing Needles.
Miserable cries came from underground. When the cries stopped, Xiao Chen withdrew the Dragon Revealing Mirror into his body. Then, he formed hand seals and waved his hand. The ground opened up, and a clump of golden Spirit Vein's origin floated out.
In an instant, the seawater turned golden. Before the golden light spread too far, Xiao Chen quickly placed it in his Universe Ring.
"Ao Jiao, how many is this?"
"Twenty already."
That was right. Xiao Chen had already stored twenty Holy Spirit Veins. Two months ago, his cultivation had already reached peak Small Perfection, only a step shy of Great Perfection.
Continuing to consume Holy Spirit Veins was no longer of much help to him. He needed stronger Spirit Veins. Only then would he be able to break through the bottleneck of Small Perfection Blue Robed Emperor and reach Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor, successfully forming the dragon-shaped Heavenly Seal.
Xiao Chen kept these Holy Spirit Veins, not for himself, but for his brothers and friends on Heavenly Star Island.
Ao Jiao put away the Holy Spirit Veins with a smile. Then, she said, Don't go back on your word. You have to give me half of these Holy Spirit Veins. I'll help you mature the Spirit Trees in the Immortal Spirit Ring.
"The Lunar Cassia Tree, the Dragon Mark Fruit, the thousand-year-old Snow Ginseng, and the Netherworld Flower have all wasted a lot of time."
Xiao Chen smiled helplessly and said, "Whatever you say. It's time for us to go out."
"Right, it's time to go out. Are you going to retrieve the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet? I have been keeping track of the days for you." Ao Jiao nodded in satisfaction.
"Plop!"
Xiao Chen pushed off with his feet, and his body moved like a roaming dragon as he leaped out of the sea. The water on his body evaporated, and the blazing sun washed away the mud on him. He looked radiant, like he had been reborn.
Xiao Chen gave off a sharp light, looking even more dazzling than the sun.
After landing firmly on the water, Xiao Chen took a long, luxurious breath. This was the first time he felt that just taking a deep breath could make him feel so comfortable.
This was the first time he felt that the color of the sun was so enchanting. Xiao Chen looked up at the sky and narrowed his eyes. He actually felt somewhat dazed.
"Stop looking. Bright Moon City is very far from here. If we don't hurry up, we might be late," Ao Jiao reminded him.
Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and smiled faintly. "Right, we do have to hurry up. There cannot be any accidents with the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet."
Xiao Chen did not care about the other objectives of the Four Seas Hero Gathering. He only cared about one thing: the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet.
The Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet, which the Qing Emperor personally forged, had to be obtained at all costs. There could be no mistakes.
Xiao Chen unfurled the Freedom Wings, and his figure flashed. His Magic Energy surged as he took a step forward, traveling fifty kilometers.
…
Bright Moon City was the most bustling and bustling city in the entire Heavenly Starry Ocean.
Bright Moon City welcomed its highest flow of people in twenty years. Everywhere was packed with people. There was an endless stream of carriages, not stopping for a moment.
Fortunately, Bright Moon City was normally extraordinarily bustling. Furthermore, it had held many Four Seas Hero Gatherings, so the Lunar Palace was already experienced.
One month ago, Bright Moon City raised the threshold for entry. Unless one was a Martial Monarch, one could not enter the city unless they had an invitation.
Only after the gathering ended did the city reopen to the public.
Aside from this, there were many other eye-catching measures. Floating palaces floated in the sky of the vast and majestic city for people to stay in, alleviating the pressure of the crowd.
The venue of the Four Seas Hero Gathering was Bright Moon Plaza in the city.
Before the start of the Grand Assembly, there were countless arenas in Bright Moon Plaza. Every day, there would be cultivators sparring on them.
This was a rare opportunity for all the young heroes of the four seas to gather in one place.
Naturally, after they met, they would compete with each other. Exciting fights were always what the spectators loved to watch.
Sometimes, famous cultivators would appear and compete with each other. This made people scream in excitement.
Aside from the free arenas, the Lunar Palace's people specially set up several arenas to liven things up.
For example, in some special arenas in the air, there would be a reward for how many rounds one could last without losing.
Another example was the Lunar Palace's young cultivators defending the arenas. As long as they defeated their opponents, they would receive a reward. Even if they failed, they would not suffer any losses.
The atmosphere of fighting in the entire city was very intense. However, with the Bright Moon Palace's strict management, everything was very orderly. There was no chaos at all. ---
Seven days later, Xiao Chen traveled quickly. Relying on the Freedom Wings' So Close Yet Worlds Apart Magic Skill, he arrived outside Bright Moon City before the gathering started.
Originally, Xiao Chen was somewhat worried that someone would recognize him and attract some trouble.
However, he soon realized that no one was paying attention to him amidst the crowd and the bustling scene. Even if there were not ten thousand people dressed in white like Xiao Chen, there were at least eight thousand of them. This was simply too ordinary.
Furthermore, the focus of the cultivators' discussion was on the Holy Scions of the Immortal Holy Lands. After walking for so long, no one had mentioned Xiao Chen.
