Without giving Wang Zhen any time to react, Xiao Chen tilted his body and used the Blue Dragon War Body as a saber. Then, he materialized the Flawless saber Dao and smashed Wang Zhen's chest. Wang Zhen's internal organs instantly became riddled with wounds. Every time he breathed, he felt excruciating pain.
"Pa!"
Just as Wang Zhen's body was about to fly back, Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed Wang Zhen's ankle. Then, he spun him in the air and tossed him at Xia Luo.
All of Xiao Chen's movements were linked together smoothly, not pausing at all. These few moves only took four or five breaths of time.
Xia Luo shrieked and quickly retreated. However, the other Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor cultivators of the Xia Clan did not dare to retreat. They worked together to catch the flying Wang Zhen. However, a loud sound rang out, and the group of Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor cultivators fell from the sky.
Xiao Chen looked coldly at the fleeing Xia Luo. Then, his figure flashed, and he descended from the sky. Xiao Chen first destroyed the other party's aura with his fifty-percent-comprehended saber soul. Then, he used his killing Qi to trap Wang Zhen, preventing him from moving. Then, he stomped on Wang Zhen.
Xia Luo cried out in pain. He begged in a low voice, "One should spare people wherever it is possible. Let me off, and I promise not to seek trouble for you."
When Xiao Chen heard this, he could not help but find it funny. One should spare people whenever it is possible. To think that Xia Luo could say such words. His skin was really thicker than the city walls.
"Scram. I don't mind you seeking trouble for me. I don't care for your promise, either. However, just remember the principle of not doing the same thing more than three times."
When Xia Luo heard that, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly thanked Xiao Chen profusely, "Many thanks for being merciful. I'll scram right now —"
However, before Xia Luo could finish speaking, Xiao Chen pulled back his leg and kicked him into the starry heavens. Before Xia Luo could even cry out, he tumbled to some unknown place.
I never said to let you scram. Xiao Chen's white robes flashed. When he looked back, the remaining Xia Clan cultivators were immediately frightened out of their wits, scattering in all directions.
As the Consummation quasi-Emperor Zhen watched the Xia Clan cultivators flee in a sorry state, Xiao Chen felt a chill run down his spine.
The group of Blue Robed Emperors who came with Xiao Chen and were ready to help at any time were all stunned.
Xiao Chen had actually defeated a Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. This was truly shocking. The further one went, the more difficult it would be to fight someone of a higher rank.
This was especially true for the Blue Robed Emperor Realm. The difference between a Great Accomplishment Blue Robed Emperor and a Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor could be said to be like clouds and mud. They were not on the same level at all.
Many Blue Robed Emperors were stuck at the Advanced Blue Robed Emperor level for their entire lives. They were unable to break through to the Perfect Blue Robed Emperor level because it was too difficult.
However, at the same time, if one cleared this stage, their strength would advance by leaps and bounds, completely incomparable to the previous stages.
As Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperors, they had been stuck at this stage for decades, even centuries. Hence, they had a deep understanding of the difference between them.
Everyone had respectful expressions on their faces as they landed and asked, "Young Master Xiao, are you injured?"
Xiao Chen circulated his energy and rested for a while, recovering some Essence. Then, he replied calmly, "I'm fine."
"Young Master Xiao is truly shocking. You defeated a Consummation Blue Robed Emperor Consummation Blue Robed Emperor as a Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. You put us old fellows to shame."
When Xiao Chen heard these words of praise, he did not feel much joy in his heart. He said in a sober manner, "This is nothing. Among the Consummation Blue Robed Emperors, this Wang Zhen is one of the weaker ones. Aside from luck, a large part of my victory was because he underestimated me."
Yue Bingyun smiled faintly and said, "There is no need to be humble. Your strength is clear for all to see. There is no need to say too much. Let's see if the Blood Sword Sovereign's cave is below first, right? "
"Right, right, right. That is the proper matter."
"Right now, the scope is shrinking. Every hidden dragon has a high chance of being there. Who knows, the Blood Sword Sovereign's cave might be below, hiding the Life and Death Art."
"At that time, if we take the lead, we will be able to enter before the other Consummation Blue Robed Emperors."
The group of people appeared very optimistic, chatting and laughing with great confidence. They all felt that they did not choose the wrong path by following behind Xiao Chen. "Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
Just at this moment, several figures flashed in the air, arriving around the peak that Xiao Chen had his eyes on.
When the many old men clearly saw the appearance of the newcomers, their expressions changed drastically. They muttered, "Jin Liangqi's group of Consummation Blue Robed Emperors are actually all here."
Xiao Chen looked up and saw a total of five groups of people. The leader of each group was a Consummation Blue Robed Emperor.
Aside from Jin Liangqi, Xiao Chen did not recognize the others. However, those people were no weaker than Jin Liangqi.
Jin Liangqi was a peak Consummation Blue Robed Emperor, much stronger than the Xia Clan's Wang Zhen. Just one such person would give Xiao Chen a headache. With four or five of them, he would not be able to deal with them head-on.
Actually, the current situation was within Xiao Chen's expectations. As the search area shrank, the many Blue Robed Emperors searching everywhere would scatter and gather together.
Xiao Chen estimated that there were only about ten remaining choices. The Blood Sword Sovereign's cave would definitely be one of these ten hidden dragon lands.
Every one of them had a high chance of being there. No one was foolish enough to just watch someone else be one step ahead of them.
Xiao Chen entered deep thought. Then, he left together with Yue Bingyun. Xiao Chen did not want to clash head-on with these Consummation Blue Robed Emperors. That would be too irrational.
"At least you are sensible!"
Jin Liangqi snorted coldly. After discussing with the other four Consummation Blue Robed Emperors, they got the Geomasters they brought to work together, executing a Secret Technique to split open the mountains and open the ground.
Many people raised their heads in anticipation, filled with hope. However, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
The Dragon Concealment Ground was broken through. A Spirit Vein Source turned into a Roaming Dragon and flew away on the clouds. This Spirit Vein was only a low-ranked one. The disappointed crowd ignored it, letting it drift away.
"Damn it! It's another empty cave!" A stout Consummation Blue Robed Emperor in the sky could not help cursing.
This person looked ferocious with a scar on his face. He carried a nine-ringed saber on his back. His name was Shen Xiao. In the Black Water Sea, Shen Xiao was known as the Smiling Saber Demon. His infamy spread far and wide, and his means were extremely cruel.
Upon hearing Shen Xiao's cursing, several Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperors felt some fear, not daring to say anything.
"Let's go. There are only nine places left. If we search them one by one, we will eventually find them." Jin Liangqi glanced at Xiao Chen casually. Then, he left with the other Consummation Blue Robed Emperors, rushing to the next Dragon Vein.
"Young Master Xiao, what should we do now? These Consummation Blue Robed Emperors are clearly working together." The black-clad old man looked at Xiao Chen somewhat anxiously.
Xiao Chen did not have any good ideas, either. These people were not benevolent people. Clearly, they would not allow others to search for the Dragon Vein before them.
Earlier, Xiao Chen had sensed several cold killing intents at the foot of the mountain range.
If someone else brought a Geomaster to search for the Dragon Vein, they would definitely suffer the attacks of these people. If one wanted to join the other party, one needed to be at least a Consummation Blue Robed Emperor's cultivation. Otherwise, they would not be able to get a share of the spoils for free.
"Either we follow them and see if we can fish in troubled waters, seeking fortuitous encounters. However, it is extremely dangerous, so we have to be mentally prepared for a massacre. Otherwise, we can give up early. You have already gained a small harvest along the way. It is not a loss. "
After thinking for a while, Xiao Chen suggested two options.
The group of Blue Robed Emperors all pondered this carefully. Most of them made up their minds. After saying goodbye to Xiao Chen, they chased after the group, hoping to fish in troubled waters and find a chance of survival.
Only a few people felt that there was no chance and left in advance. Although they were not satisfied, they had no other choice. No matter how tempting the Life and Death Art was, it was not as important as their lives. If they lost their lives, how could they be Emperor Wu?
Soon, only Xiao Chen and Yue Bingyun were left at the foot of the vast mountain range.
Yue Bingyun looked at the many Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperors in the air and withdrew her gaze. Then, she looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "What is your choice?"
Xiao Chen replied calmly, "You and I both have trump cards to protect ourselves. Naturally, it is the first choice. However, right now, I need to recuperate."
After saying that, Xiao Chen sat cross-legged on the ground and circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation to recover quickly.
While the earlier battle with Wang Zhen looked easy, he had actually exhausted a lot of energy. He had already drained two-thirds of his Law Energy.
The Consummation Blue Robed Emperor had merged his soul with the Heavenly Seal. His Holy Body was one step closer to Emperor Wu's Golden Body and no longer had many weak points.
Xiao Chen's ability to resist damage had increased significantly. He needed to burst out with his usual attacks in the shortest time possible, crippling or injuring the other party. Otherwise, in a drawn-out battle, the one at a disadvantage would be Xiao Chen.
However, there were many benefits to this battle. The most obvious was the increase in his confidence and the experience of fighting a Consummation Consummation Blue Robed Emperor.
Xiao Chen thought about how Leng Shaofan had led a Consummation Consummation Blue Robed Emperor from the Eastern Sea Divine Dragon Palace and beaten him to the point where he could not retaliate. Even when Xiao Chen used Neptune's Crown, he had only managed to defeat the other party through trickery.
Now, Xiao Chen relied on his own strength to defeat a Consummation Consummation Blue Robed Emperor head-on, forcing the other party to flee.
Four hours later, as the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation circulated frantically, Xiao Chen's Law Energy recovered to its original state, returning him to his peak. His sharp aura was even stronger. The reserved tyranny in his eyes startled Yue Bingyun slightly.
Yue Bingyun could not help comparing Xiao Chen to the Young Treasure Master, Yi Ling, who hid himself the deepest in the Heavenly Starry Ocean.
Right now, Xiao Chen probably did not know that his actions in the Four Seas Hero Gathering had severely damaged the Luck of the surrounding outstanding talents, helping Yi Ling greatly. This allowed Yi Ling to dominate the Heavenly Starry Ocean, providing him with great convenience and establishing a difficult opponent for Yue Bingyun.
"Let me see how far they have progressed."
Xiao Chen stood up and flew to the top of a thirty-kilometer-tall mountain peak. Then, he opened his Heavenly Eye and looked into the distance. Immediately, he saw everything within five hundred kilometers.
Every flower, every tree, every blade of grass, every tree, every insect, bird, beast, mountain, river, everything appeared. Nothing could escape Xiao Chen's Heavenly Eye.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen frowned slightly. He felt a strong gaze on him. It seemed to have discovered his gaze, so he quickly closed his Heavenly Eye.
However, it was already too late. That expert's gaze contained the other party's cold and emotionless sword intent. Blood appeared on Xiao Chen's forehead.
