When everyone looked at Xiao Chen, aside from marveling at his strength, there was also a look of pity in their eyes. Those with malicious thoughts mocked him mercilessly, mocking him to the extreme, taking pleasure in his misfortune.
If Xiao Chen did not advance to Martial Emperor in five years, he would have only twenty years left to live. Before he reached fifty, he would die young, becoming a meteor streaking across the golden age.
This was the Blue Dragon's sorrow. No matter how strong one's mental state was, anyone would feel heartache when they thought of this.
In the past twenty-odd years of my life, I have fought my way through many battles. It has already been very difficult. However, when I reached the peak of my generation, I ended up encountering this undeserved calamity.
I can defeat many outstanding talents and sweep through the younger generation of the Kunlun Continent. In the Heavenly Starry Ocean, I can defeat the outstanding talents of the four seas in one move.
So what? If I do not advance to Martial Emperor in five years, I will still be a meteor. Right now, no matter how dazzling the light was, it only made people feel that it was a pity.
What he revealed was still a look of sympathy.
Suddenly, thousands of blood-red White Remnant Flowers floated up in the hot air.
The White Remnant Flowers were like blood, filled with grief. Every petal radiated the grief of the Blue Dragon King and the Blue Dragon King's dissatisfaction.
Before everyone's eyes, a scarlet waning moon slowly rose up from behind Xiao Chen. Scarlet light filled everyone's eyes. Everywhere they looked was grief.
No matter who it was, all the heat in their bodies was swept away at this moment, replaced by a strange melancholy.
Everyone felt Xiao Chen's grief and sensed Xiao Chen's dissatisfaction. Under the cold and invincible mask, the Blue Dragon King also had a heart that could be hurt.
The sound of gushing water rang out beside Xiao Chen. That was the river of time that Xiao Chen simulated with his mental state. He was on a lone boat, moving along the river under the scarlet moonlight.
Time passed, and ten thousand years passed. Xiao Chen's expression changed. Before everyone's eyes, it was like he went through reincarnation after reincarnation, changing again and again. Only the scarlet moonlight on his body did not change. The river could not wash away the grief covering his body.
Who saw the moon for the first time by the riverside? When did the moon on the river first shine? Generation after generation is endless, the river and moon are alike year after year.
Under the illumination of the blood-colored moonlight, Xiao Chen, who was dressed in white and accompanied by thousands of blood-colored flowers, looked exceptionally sad.
Thousand Year Death, I have a palm that speaks only of sorrow and not joy!
Along with the grief in his heart, Xiao Chen took advantage of the situation and threw a palm strike at the dazzling Chu Yang, who was sneering at him with cold eyes.
Although my heart is hurt, I do not blame anyone. I did not draw my saber not because I am looking down on you, but because I really do not need to draw my saber.
The grief that this palm strike exuded was endless. It contained an endless cycle of reincarnation, a grief that could not be washed away even after thousands of years.
Chu Yang's state of mind collapsed in an instant, and he had yet to regain consciousness. The sun halo around Xiao Chen's body and the Sun God Bird behind him crumbled under the power of this palm strike.
The palm force did not stop there. Chu Yang, who was sent flying, crashed into a jade pavilion in the air, startling the people inside and causing them to scatter.
In that instant, the jade pavilion shattered. The shattered pieces were like a small mountain, burying the severely injured and unconscious Chu Yang.
This allowed Chu Yang to preserve his final bit of face, not letting anyone see his tattered clothes and disheveled hair, looking like a sorry beggar.
A strong sense of sorrow pervaded the square, reverberating in everyone's heart.
The Blue Dragon King Xiao Chen's dissatisfaction, grief, and pain were all expressed vividly in this palm strike. Everyone could clearly feel it, just like they did.
Xiao Chen stopped circulating his energy and stood upright with his hands behind his back. The aura of grief slowly vanished after the remnant flowers vanished and the blood moon vanished. "Plop!"
Chu Yang crawled out of the rubble on the ground with much difficulty. When he looked at Xiao Chen, who was in the highest arena, his eyes filled with shock.
That earlier palm strike was indeed terrifyingly mighty. However, if that were all, it would not have been able to injure him so severely.
The most important thing was that the state of grief contained in that palm strike instantly crumbled Chu Yang's mental state. His momentum and fighting spirit all vanished. The instant Xiao Chen attacked, he crippled most of his Martial Techniques.
At this moment, Chu Yang had nothing to say. He accepted his defeat wholeheartedly. However, he absolutely would not let this go.
He, Chu Yang, was the strongest person in the Zodiac Hall. Since his debut, he had never suffered a defeat in the Heavenly Starry Ocean. If not for Di Xinhan's Heavenly Spiritual Body and shocking physical body, he would not have found a true opponent.
However, today, Chu Yang lost so cleanly. This was simply unacceptable.
The many old men of the Zodiac Hall followed Fu Hongyao out of the jade pavilion to check on his injuries.
"There's no need. I'm fine. Let's go." Chu Yang waved his hand and wiped off the blood on his lips. Then, he walked out of the rubble and glanced at Xiao Chen, who was in the arena. He said coldly, "Xiao Chen, let me tell you this. Today's matter is definitely not over. I, Chu Yang, will not admit defeat so easily."
After saying that, Chu Yang rode on the Sun God Bird of the Zodiac Hall and quickly left Bright Moon City, not willing to stay any longer.
Defeated. Xiao Chen defeated Chu Yang in one move, shattering the last hope of the many cultivators of the Heavenly Starry Ocean. Even now, Xiao Chen did not draw his saber. Such a result was somewhat hard to accept.
The Four Seas Hero Gathering was supposed to be an occasion for the outstanding talents to show up one after another. They would display their Martial Techniques and fight an exciting battle, showing off their glory and letting their names spread throughout the Heavenly Starry Ocean.
After that, the many Holy Scions would go up and display even more exciting and dazzling battles, showing off the glory of their Holy Lands.
However, today, because of Xiao Chen's appearance, the Four Seas Hero Gathering, which had been passed down for tens of thousands of years, turned this banquet into a stage for him alone.
What should have been a suspenseful and exciting battle turned into an instant defeat in one move, destroying the illustrious reputation of the many Holy Scions.
"Ye Chen, are you not going up?" In the jade pavilion where the Northern Sea Alliance was, Ye Chen had been watching the competition silently, not saying a word.
At this moment, someone in the pavilion asked him. He smiled and shook his head. "Never mind. Without Brother Xiao, I would not even be able to become the Blue Robed Emperor. Furthermore, with my Martial Techniques, I am definitely not a match for Xiao Chen. "
"Xiao Chen has ruined this Four Seas Hero Gathering. The judges of the Lunar Palace will probably not be happy about it."
Ye Chen sighed and said, "Who could have thought that he alone could suppress all the outstanding talents of the Heavenly Starry Ocean? Furthermore, he suppressed them so miserably."
Just as everyone discussed in low voices, a cold voice rang out in the palace where the Lunar Palace's judges were, sounding extremely dignified.
"Blue Dragon King Xiao Chen, the ten of us judges have unanimously decided that no one in this Four Seas Hero Gathering can surpass you. Even if we go back another ten thousand years, only the Qing Emperor back then could compare to you. Hence, the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet belongs to no one else. "
A rectangular brocade box floated down from the sky.
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand to catch it. After he opened it, he saw a palm-sized stone tablet in the exquisite brocade box. The words "Dragon's Gate" were written on it, giving off a vast aura.
With just a few glances, Xiao Chen felt like he had fallen into a boundless abyss. The stone tablet contained a vast and boundless, overwhelming power. It made one feel incredibly insignificant.
There was a huge pressure in the depths of Xiao Chen's heart. Endless dragon roars echoed in his ears, and a battlefield of blood and fire appeared before him.
An imposing figure on a horse held his saber horizontally, leading many Dragon's Gate disciples and sweeping through the place. That imposing figure was accompanied by thirteen azure-clad experts as they fought with many horrifying enemies.
Among the enemies were the strong Deity Race Martial Emperors, the Dragon Kings of the four seas and the seven colored Dragon Marquises under Neptune, the many Holy Lands of the Heavenly Starry Ocean, and the even more horrifying Deep Abyss Demon Monarchs. "Kill!
Kill! Kill! "
Murderous cries resounded, and Xiao Chen's eyes turned scarlet. He thought to himself, Oh no! He quickly retreated and closed the brocade box. Then, he performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "Many thanks to the seniors of the Lunar Palace for helping me."
Xiao Chen knew that the stone tablet before him could not be wrong. It was the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet that the Qing Emperor personally made. Although it was only palm-sized now, its true size would be revealed when it landed on the ground.
"You came for the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet. Now that you have obtained it, please leave. The Four Seas Hero Gathering still has to continue."
The dignified and cold voice contained a trace of displeasure as it started to send the guest off.
Xiao Chen placed the brocade box on his back and performed another cupped-fist salute to express his thanks. Then, he glanced at the Lunar Palace in the sky. It seemed like someone was watching him there. Now, Xiao Chen somewhat understood why that old woman had stayed in the Meditation Moon Palace for ten thousand years.
The words on the Meditation Moon Palace's signboard were exactly the same as the words on the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet.
Why was the Meditation Moon Palace's signboard written by the Qing Emperor? Perhaps only that old woman knew what happened to it.
Xiao Chen shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Then, he drifted away before everyone's eyes.
On the small arena, Long Fei and Qi Wuxue felt bored, so they followed Xiao Chen and left as well.
As everyone watched Xiao Chen leave, most of them showed respect in their eyes. Defeating the outstanding talents of the four seas in one move, Xiao Chen truly lived up to the title of Blue Dragon King. This was a form of respect for the strong.
However, there were also a few gazes that appeared extremely complicated, making it hard to guess what they were thinking.
After Yue Bingyun spoke, she glanced at Xiao Chen's back before silently turning to leave.
The Young Treasure Master, Yi Ling, had a faint smile on his face. He said meaningfully, "History is always shockingly similar. Unfortunately, advancing to Martial Emperor in five years is still an insurmountable hurdle for you. You are destined not to be the next Qing Emperor. The future of the Heavenly Starry Ocean is still in my hands. I'll leave the Heaven Subduing Rock to you for now. "
The Eastern Sea Divine Dragon Palace's Young Palace Master, Leng Shaofan, showed a sullen expression and did not say anything. He only whispered a few words to the old man beside him, and the old man left to carry out his orders.
If Xiao Chen were here, he would not be unfamiliar with this old man. This was the leader of the four old men who led the chase in Despair City.
Back then, this old man had been severely injured by Xiao Chen. Now, he had already recovered from his injuries. His strength seemed to have improved slightly.
Outside Bright Moon City, Xiao Chen landed on the surface of the sea and met up with Long Fei and Qi Wuxue.
"Congratulations, Brother Xiao. You got what you wanted," the two said with cupped-fist salutes.
