It looked like there was no buildup. However, the mysterious phenomenon that erupted was shockingly horrifying.
Behind Qian Zongchao, the power of the world turned into a sea of flames that looked like a real sea. Waves overlapped, boundless, unfathomable, and immeasurable.
Furthermore, based on the minute slow-motion, one could see that every time Qian Zongchao's palm moved forward, a flaming wave would rise from the sea, one wave after another, overlapping.
In the time it took for Qian Zongchao to stretch out his hand, tens of thousands of flaming waves overlapped. When it came into contact with Xiao Chen's palm, all the energy would erupt in an instant.
Qian Zongchao lived up to his name. As a peak expert with explosive power, Qian Zongchao had indeed broadened Xiao Chen's horizons. He let Xiao Chen know that none of these old Blue Robed Emperor, who had been stuck at peak Great Perfection for hundreds of years, were simple.
However, that was all. This move was not enough to defeat Xiao Chen.
With a thought, the dragon-shaped Heavenly Seal breathed. The ten thousand Heavenly Laws in Xiao Chen's body instantly stirred up, not stopping for a moment.
The mysterious phenomenon triggered by the ten thousand Heavenly Laws stirring up the power of the world at the same time. It was like ten thousand True Dragons drilled out of Xiao Chen's body. As the ten thousand dragons soared, cracks appeared in the buildings behind him.
These buildings, which could withstand a strike from the Blue Robed Emperor, started cracking under the mysterious phenomenon triggered by Xiao Chen.
A sorrowful aura lingered in the great hall amid the scarlet flowers. As a blood moon soared, Xiao Chen used the Thousand Year Death to clash with Qian Zongchao's palm strike, the boundless sea of flames.
"Boom!"
The instant the two palms clashed, the roof of the great hall was blown off and shattered into powder. The destructive power of the aftershocks from the two palms far surpassed everyone's expectations.
The buildings that could withstand the might of the Blue Robed Emperor's battle were destroyed in half by the two palms.
The two were competing in explosive power. From start to finish, their moves were clean and efficient, without any flourishes. The victor was decided in one breath.
Xiao Chen didn't move from his original position. He slowly retracted his palm, causing his clothes and hair to slowly fall to the ground.
Qian Zongchao vomited a mouthful of blood and took a hundred steps back before falling to the ground. He looked at Xiao Chen angrily and coughed out another mouthful of blood. He pointed at Xiao Chen and cursed, "You tricked me!"
Strictly speaking, Xiao Chen did scam him, but he was the one who picked this trap.
In the Four Seas Hero Gathering, he dared to challenge all the outstanding talents and chose to decide the victor in one move. One of the main reasons was that his forte was the explosive power of killer moves.
In less than half a month after advancing to Great Perfection quasi-Emperor, Xiao Chen could instantly drive ten thousand Heavenly Laws with a thought, releasing and withdrawing them as he pleased.
Qian Zongchao dared to compete with Xiao Chen in explosive power, wanting to decide victory in one move. If this was not seeking his own humiliation, what was?
Lan Shaobai heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he stepped forward and said, "Sect Master Qian, I hope that you will abide by your promise. The people of the Fire Beacon Sect will not appear in the sea region of Heavenly Star Island in the future. The other fellow cultivators heard it for themselves."
Qian Zongchao found it hard to express his bitterness. He had not expected that after living for several hundred years, he would fall to the hands of a junior. Even though Qian Zongchao clearly held an absolute advantage, his expression did not change at all before the battle started. It was like he was pretending.
Qian Zongchao stood up and walked over to the Black Astral Coins that he had tossed out. He prepared to put away the Black Astral Coins and leave quickly. This time, he had completely embarrassed himself.
"Wait!" Xiao Chen shouted coldly, stopping Qian Zongchao's actions.
Qian Zongchao demanded angrily, "What do you want?"
"I don't want to do anything. This hall is riddled with restrictions, and it is costly to build. You even blew off the roof, and you want to leave for nothing?" Xiao Chen said unhurriedly. "You have to leave behind these five million Black Astral Coins."
"You are twisting words and forcing logic!"
Xiao Chen retorted indifferently, "That's right. I am twisting words and forcing logic!
"Whoever tries to reason with me, Xiao Chen, will do so. I will do so openly and openly. However, if anyone tries to be unreasonable with me, thinking of forcefully buying and selling or using force to bully others, I, Xiao Chen, will be even more unreasonable than them! "
Right after Xiao Chen spoke, he threw another palm strike. Before Qian Zongchao could reply, he directly sent him flying, not giving him any face at all.
The other eight old men immediately exchanged glances. Xiao Chen's forcefulness and his words were clearly directed at them.
Just as these old men were feeling uneasy, wondering if Xiao Chen would snatch back their Black Astral Coins, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Everyone, are you not going to take back your Black Astral Coins?
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Everyone, are you not going to take back your Black Astral Coins? When the group heard this, they immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Then, they quickly took back the five million Black Astral Coins that they had tossed out.
When the group heard this, they immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Then, they quickly took back the five million Black Astral Coins that they had tossed out.
After these old men took back their Black Astral Coins, Xiao Chen sent out a palm strike. Amid a loud sound, the pile of Black Astral Coins that Qian Zongchao left behind turned into dust.
Five million Black Astral Coins turned to dust before the eyes of these old men. This sight stunned them into stupefaction.
Five million Black Astral Coins was a significant sum for any of the Blue Robed Emperors.
However, Xiao Chen did not even blink, directly shattering it with one palm strike. What does this mean? Everyone thought to themselves.
These old men were all experienced people who had lived for several hundred years. They quickly understood what Xiao Chen meant. This was Xiao Chen expressing his stance.
Xiao Chen did not care about five million Black Astral Coins. He wanted Qian Zongchao to leave behind these Black Astral Coins to make the other party pay the price. Anyone who wanted to target Heavenly Star Island needed to be mentally prepared to pay the price. Otherwise, they would end up like this pile of Black Astral Coins before them.
After the Vice Sect Masters of the Nine Ranks of the Great Families reacted, they immediately smiled and started chatting with Xiao Chen. They all promised that they would not seek trouble for Heavenly Star Island and that this matter was just a misunderstanding.
After seeing Xiao Chen's strength, it would not be wise for them to try anything.
Although the Nine Ranks of the Great Families had Emperor Wu holding down the fort, and Xiao Chen was definitely not a match for them, Emperor Wu could not possibly remain in his sect at all times.
People like Xiao Chen who offended Xiao Chen would take advantage of the fact that Emperor Wu was not around to seek trouble for him every two or three days, causing everyone to panic. It was not the first time that such a large sect was killed until only a general was left.
Those who had nothing to lose were not afraid of slippers. If both sides suffered, it would not be good for either side.
The most important thing was that Xiao Chen was rather clever. He only taught Qian Zongchao a lesson. He did not make things difficult for the other old men who took out their Black Astral Coins. This was considered as not shedding all pretense. This made it much easier to talk to them.
"I'll take my leave first. In the future, if the Blue Dragon King has time, you can come to our sect for a visit and improve our relationship."
Since the roof of the great hall had been torn off, it was clearly not suitable for them to remain for long. After everyone expressed their stance, the various old men got up and prepared to leave.
Lan Shaobai heaved a sigh of relief at the side. This matter was finally resolved. One could not be too polite to such people. The weaker one was, the more others would think that one was easy to bully.
Xiao Chen had handled the situation appropriately. He had displayed his strength without offending everyone.
Just at this moment, a strong mental pressure swept out in all directions. Everyone on Heavenly Star Island felt like a pair of ruthless eyes were staring at them.
Suddenly, they did not dare to move at all. It was as if they were facing a great enemy. They all felt fear in their hearts for some reason.
This gaze seemed to sweep through the entire island before focusing on Xiao Chen. This made the others release their bated breath.
"This is the might and pressure of Emperor Wu!" The group of old men in the great hall were very knowledgeable and quickly determined the strength of this newcomer.
"Could it be that Qian Zongchao is unconvinced and got his Sect Master to come personally?"
"It does not seem like it. Furthermore, that is impossible. The Fire Beacon Sect's Sect Master would not dare to ignore Bushin Palace. Furthermore, this time, Qian Zongchao messed things up. He is not in the right at all. Given the character of the Fire Beacon Sect's Sect Master, even if he came, he would be trying to mend the relationship. "
"The most important thing is that this might does not seem like the might and pressure of a Minor Heavenly Emperor Wu. It is much stronger than the Fire Beacon Sect's Sect Master's."
The expressions of the few old men changed as they discussed in soft voices. They could not guess which Martial Emperor came. Who would be so bold as to come here with Emperor Wu's cultivation? After all, Xiao Chen was the Thunder King's favored Blue Dragon King. This was Bushin Palace's conferred land.
Even if Xiao Chen coveted the resources here and sent a group of subordinates over, when Bushin Palace investigated, they could still say that Xiao Chen was not as skilled as others. If Xiao Chen could not defeat cultivators of the same cultivation and was not worthy of occupying this sea region, Bushin Palace would have nothing to say.
If Xiao Chen personally came, he clearly did not conform to some secret rules. Was he not mocking the fact that Bushin Palace had no one?
Bushin Palace could not just sit back and watch. Otherwise, they would lose face, the entire Bushin Palace.
Lan Shaobai's heart sank. He more or less guessed who had come. He frowned heavily. This would not be easy to deal with. Big trouble was coming.
Back then, Xiao Chen had directly killed the purple-clad man of the Seven Heroes Of The Dragon. This time, it was probably the purple-clad man's father, the Purple-Clad Marquis, who had come personally.
Xiao Chen felt extremely uncomfortable enduring the huge might. His legs turned soft, and he nearly knelt down. The difference in cultivation was too great. Just the formless might was unblockable.
"Chi!"
At the crucial moment, Little Yellow Feather flew out of the Immortal Spirit Ring and landed on Xiao Chen's shoulder. It used its Holy Beast bloodline to share some of the pressure for Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen flicked his finger and discovered that he could move. With a thought, a Golden Sage Feather appeared in his hand and hid it in his sleeve.
This was the last resort of the Golden Crow Race. At a crucial moment, it could severely injure Emperor Wu in exchange for a chance to live. This was Xiao Chen's greatest trump card.
A sharp-eyed person recognized Little Yellow Feather on Xiao Chen's shoulder and cried out in shock, "The Golden Crow Holy Beast!"
This was a legendary Holy Beast of the Immortal Epoch, possessing a noble bloodline. It only existed in ancient texts, rarely seen. Yet, Xiao Chen had this Golden Crow as a pet. "Hu chi!"
The space in the hall tore easily, and an imposing middle-aged man wearing purple dragon robes and Battle Armor walked out with large strides. His aura was extraordinary, and an intimidating pressure was emitted from his body.
"The Purple-Clad Marquis!"
Astonishment came one after another. The Martial Emperor who came was actually Neptune's old subordinate, the current Purple-Clad Marquis. He was a Greater Heavenly Emperor Wu, a true peak character of the Western Sea.
