Now, it looked like Xiao Chen's thinking was too simple. These factions that occupied the subsidiary resource islands of Heavenly Star Island did not even have a Heavenly Star Island. These factions that occupied the subordinate islands of Heavenly Star Island not only had no intention of leaving, but they even formed an alliance with Black Flame Island.
As Xiao Chen watched the huge warship move further away, a shadow flashed in his heart. He muttered to himself, "I have to speed up the repair of the transportation formation. Soon, a huge battle will erupt."
After returning to Heavenly Star Island, Xiao Chen first sought out Lan Shaobai and told him about what he saw.
When Lan Shaobai heard that, he said, "There are eight major factions in the surrounding subordinate islands. Among them, the Metal Blood Sect is the strongest. The Metal Blood Sect's Sect Master, Chen Ming, is a Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor, equal to Elder Qin."
Xiao Chen felt excited. He was rather clear on Elder Qin's strength.
Elder Qin's cultivation had already reached the peak of Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. However, due to his age and potential, it would be hard for him to break through to Consummation Blue Robed Emperor.
Among the Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperors, Elder Qin was considered a peak. If a Consummation Blue Robed Emperor did not make a move, it would be hard for a Blue Robed Emperor to find an opponent that could suppress him.
For Xiao Chen, he would need at least a hundred moves to defeat Elder Qin. If he was not careful, he would suffer significant injuries.
Xiao Chen could not help it. The other party's cultivation was the real deal.
Xiao Chen had been stuck at a bottleneck for so many years, unable to advance. He could only continuously temper his Law Energy.
A fully formed Heavenly Seal was indestructible. Using the power of the world was as easy as raising a hand.
Chen Ming's strength was equal to Elder Qin's. This was not good news. Furthermore, there was Zhuang Zhenghe hiding behind him. Just thinking about it gave Xiao Chen a headache.
Lan Shaobai said, "There is no need to worry too much. Mo Chen has already recovered a small portion of the defensive formations linking the seven outpost islands to Heavenly Star Island. As long as the other party does not have a consummation Blue Robed Emperor cultivator, Heavenly Star Island will not be easy to take down."
When Xiao Chen heard that, he rejoiced. He finally heard some good intentions. The Amitabha Buddha of Black Flame Island could not leave the island. Given that, Heavenly Star Island would be much safer.
Wait, that's not right! Xiao Chen reacted and said, "Mo Chen, aren't you repairing the transportation formation?"
Lan Shaobai smiled bitterly and said, "She's been so busy recently. She's been running around everywhere and hasn't stopped at all. She won't listen to me no matter what I say."
"I was laughing at her for her groundless fears, but now that you're back, those forces won't dare to have any ideas. I didn't expect her to be right. These forces will definitely be driven to desperate action, unable to change their greed, and fight to the death. "
"Where is she now?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Just at the summit, repairing the transportation formation."
Right after Lan Shaobai spoke, a strong wind blew, and Xiao Chen vanished, flying towards the summit where the transportation formation was.
Lan Shaobai smiled faintly. Then, he said softly, "I originally thought that after killing the Purple-Clad Marquis's descendant, the first to seek trouble would be the Purple-Clad Marquis. Unexpectedly, these small factions are the first to act.
"I have to call them out of closed-door cultivation in advance," Lan Shaobai muttered to himself. Then, Lan Shaobai prepared to call out Yue Chenxi from closed-door cultivation. Otherwise, he would not have enough manpower.
…
On the platform of the transportation formation at the summit, Xiao Chen saw Mo Chen, who was doing her best to repair herself. She could not hide the fatigue in her eyes, but her movements were still orderly and unhurried. She did not look fatigued at all.
"You're here."
Mo Chen only raised her head and glanced at Xiao Chen. Then, she lowered her head again and busied herself with her own matters.
She pressed her palm to the ground and used her Law Energy to repair the broken formation patterns.
There were also some messy formation patterns. Not only did she need to repair them, but she also needed to adjust them according to the layout of the entire formation.
If she made a slight mistake, she would have to start all over again. This was a test of one's patience.
Xiao Chen thought for a while. However, he did not tell Mo Chen about what he told Lan Shaobai. He asked in a relaxed tone, "How's the progress?"
"Based on the current progress, it will take another half a month or so."
Xiao Chen was somewhat surprised. This progress was faster than he had expected. He had a rough understanding of formations before.
When Xiao Chen inspected the formation, he was very clear on how much work was involved.
Suddenly, a thought occurred to Xiao Chen, and he asked, "You have not slept for the past half a month, right?"
Mo Chen paused, her hands moving somewhat unnaturally. Then, she forced a smile and said, "For the Blue Robed Emperor, not sleeping for half a month is not a problem. You know that."
"I know. However, that is under the premise that I need to meditate and rest. Clearly, you even skipped the time to meditate. Go and rest for a day. "Xiao Chen's eyes were like torches, seeing everything clearly.
"No way!"
Mo Chen rejected Xiao Chen in a somewhat loud voice. Then, she said in a resolute tone, "This secret realm is very important to you. If you can enter one day earlier, you should. Of the five years, one year has already passed. You only have four years left. If I can enter one day earlier, I will be able to help you gain one day."
Unable to suppress her emotions, Mo Chen brought up a question that many of her old friends of Heavenly Star Island had avoided.
The two immediately felt surprised, and the place fell silent.
Xiao Chen was surprised that Mo Chen could be so meticulous. Mo Chen was surprised that she blurted out the words that she had been hiding in her heart in a moment of desperation.
After a while, Mo Chen broke the silence. She whispered, "Big Brother Xiao, you should go first. I alone am enough here. There's no need to worry about me."
Xiao Chen said after some thought, "For this kind of work, the more outsiders help, the more chaotic it will be. However, I cannot leave. Just do what you need to do. I'll stay here and watch over you. I can even help out a little. "
Mo Chen smiled and said, "How can I dare to let the Blue Dragon King help me? It's good that you watch over me. If I get bored, I can find someone to talk to."
What Mo Chen did not know was that for the sake of subduing ten Spirit Veins in the shortest time possible, Xiao Chen had not slept or meditated for the past half month.
If he had known, he would not have let Xiao Chen remain here.
Just like that, as the sun rose and set, the two remained on the platform. They did not leave, making every second count.
Although it was dry, it was not boring. After all, there were two people to talk to when they were bored.
The time it took to repair the transportation formation was faster than Mo Chen expected, only ten days.
With the mission accomplished, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief. Mo Chen had a smile on her face as she looked at Xiao Chen with some reproach. She said, "You did not do anything. You might as well have rested for the past ten days."
Fatigue flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes. He smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's begin. I hope that this Dragon's Gate secret realm will not disappoint us."
Mo Chen nodded and stepped into the transportation formation together with Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not hesitate, immediately activating the transportation formation under him. Immediately, a large net appeared before Xiao Chen. Countless motes of light interconnected with each other.
The green motes represented the transportation formations in the Bushin Palace. One could directly teleport there.
The blue motes represented the transportation formations of external factions. One needed to communicate with them and obtain their approval before one could teleport there.
The red motes represented factions that were not on friendly terms with the Bushin Palace. One could not teleport there.
The white motes represented the abandoned transportation formations of the Bushin Palace. Teleporting there was great danger.
There were many of these motes of light. Only one azure-colored mote was the most special. There was only one of it. That was the location of the Dragon's Gate secret realm.
One could only use the transportation formation under him to teleport there. No other transportation formation could teleport there.
With some anticipation, Xiao Chen tapped the azure-colored mote in his consciousness. The two transportation formations started to connect.
With a flash of light, the two vanished from the transportation formation at the same time.
After one month, Mo Chen finally broke through the complicated and ancient transportation formation. The two successfully entered the Dragon's Gate secret realm.
Not to mention what kind of difficulties and war spoils awaited the two in the Dragon's Gate secret realm —
On the other side, the eight great factions were nearing the end of their preparations for Black Flame Island.
Under the leadership of the Metal Blood Sect's Sect Master, Chen Ming, the eight factions moved out in full force, leading a large group of people to charge towards Heavenly Star Island. The formation of hundreds of warships looked very imposing.
However, although there were many warships, only the Metal Blood Sect's Metal Blood Warship was a King Grade warship. The others were all Sage Grade warships.
Without any other choice, they could only use this warship as their flagship.
The leaders of the eight factions and the peak grandmaster-level Martial Sages all gathered here. They all had grave expressions, looking like they had a lot on their minds.
The many Blue Robed Emperors on the deck were very clear that they could only succeed in this operation. Failure was not an option. Otherwise, only death awaited them. The factions that they had accumulated over the years would crumble.
"Brother Chen, how come I don't seem to see Zhuang Zhenghe?"
The one who spoke was the Lianyun Gang's Gang Leader, Fu Lianyun. He was already three hundred years old. His cultivation had already reached Small Perfection Blue Robed Emperor long ago.
In the past three hundred years, Fu Lianyun had led the Lianyun Gang through the chaotic Western Sea, rising and falling. He had seen many ups and downs.
However, at this moment, Fu Lianyun still felt very nervous. He was not completely confident.
The reason was none other than the fame of the person he was dealing with. After the Four Seas Hero Gathering, the name of the Blue Dragon King, Xiao Chen, had spread throughout the vast Heavenly Starry Ocean. Everyone knew about him.
With one move, he defeated the outstanding talents everywhere, turning the Four Seas Hero Gathering, which should have been a hundred flowers blossoming and many outstanding talents competing against each other, into a one-man stage.
Since ancient times, there had never been such a thing. This was incredible and flabbergasting.
When the leaders of the other factions heard Fu Lianyun's question, they could not help looking at the Metal Blood Sect's Chen Ming. Like Fu Lianyun, they also felt uncertain.
Before the battle started, their morale had already dropped. This would not do.
Chen Ming smiled and said, "Everyone, don't worry. You are all clearer than me on the situation of Heavenly Star Island. Zhuang Zhenghe will deal with the Blue Dragon King. As for the remaining people, leave that Haotian Sect Elder to me.
"The others are just a group of juniors. No matter how powerful they are, they can't be a match for the few of you. Furthermore, our eight factions are moving out in full force. We have more than double their numbers. We will definitely win this battle.
"I'll say something unpleasant. Things have already reached this point. If you still want to retreat, then you have lived all your years in vain."
