If not for the people present having extremely sharp eyes, they would not have been able to tell that Xiao Chen had stopped picking up food.
The most shocked person was none other than the finely-dressed man. He choked on his wine and coughed endlessly.
"Dang!"
Xiao Chen put down the wine cup in his hand heavily. Then, he raised his head and looked at Dugu Ao with a sharp gaze. He said, "I was just looking for someone to practice with. You are a pretty good opponent. However, this place is too small. I believe you feel restricted as well. How about we go somewhere else?"
Dugu Ao was indeed a pretty good opponent. Xiao Chen was not lying when he said that. Dugu Ao was strong even among the Consummation Blue Robed Emperors.
Dugu Ao's earlier punch had been executed in a moment of desperation. There were countless openings. Even though Xiao Chen easily forced him back with two chopsticks, he could not deny Dugu Ao's strength.
Xiao Chen could clearly recognize this point.
If Xiao Chen wanted to defeat Dugu Ao, he would have to put in some effort. After all, Dugu Ao was twenty-odd years older than Xiao Chen and possessed great talent. Furthermore, he was a Demon mixed-blood.
However, that was all to it. Dugu Ao was just slightly harder to deal with, not enough to scare Xiao Chen.
Dugu Ao was young and frivolous, brimming with vigor. How could he endure such provocation? He grinned and said, "It is just some flashy moves, and you dare to spout nonsense in front of me. You are truly bold. I will do as you wish. You can choose any location in this Treasure Dragon City. "
The two of you are outstanding young talents. There is no need to make such a big fuss over such a small matter.
Just as the two prepared to make a move, a voice rang out in their minds at the same time. This was a voice projection. Furthermore, it was sent to two people at the same time. The technique was very exquisite.
Xiao Chen's and Dugu Ao's expressions changed at the same time. They both sent out their senses, trying to find the person who sent the voice projection.
In the end, the two were somewhat shocked to discover that they could not find the person who sent the voice projection at all. He had seen the two's every move and was clearly not far away.
However, with the two's cultivations, they did not discover the other party immediately.
Xiao Chen swept out with his Spiritual Sense and could only determine a rough direction. The person who sent the voice transmission should be in a private room on the fifth floor. However, they did not know which booth it was. The cultivation of the person who sent the voice projection should be much higher than theirs.
Half-step Emperor Wu!
In their minds, these four words appeared at the same time. There was actually a half-step Emperor Wu in this restaurant.
Immediately, they did not dare to act rashly. They did not know what the person who sent the voice transmission was planning.
"There's no need to keep looking. If the two of you are willing to stop here, you can stay at this restaurant tonight at noon. I will give you a good fortune."
The meaning behind his words was clear. He fancied the strength of the two of them and wanted their help.
When Dugu Ao heard that, he relaxed. This was not the first time he encountered such a thing.
In the Dragon Grave Sea, those who wanted to adventure in the Dragon Grave Sea would usually team up and explore together. Aside from a few bold and talented people, very few people would travel alone.
However, this was Dugu Ao's first time encountering a half-step Emperor Wu wanting to team up. This immediately piqued his interest. "Consider yourself lucky.
There's something going on today, so I'll let you live for a few more days. "Dugu Ao smiled proudly and ignored Xiao Chen. Then, he went to another table and started eating.
Xiao Chen also guessed the intention of this person. However, he did not know what the other party was up to, so he decided to wait and see first.
When the person who sent the voice projection saw that the two did not make another move, he stopped speaking. Clearly, he already had the two in his grasp.
"Ao Jiao, do you think I should go on this trip?" Xiao Chen was originally planning to leave. When he suddenly received such an invitation, he could not help feeling interested.
Why not? This person is so secretive. Furthermore, with the strength of a half-step Emperor Wu, he still wants to find helpers. Clearly, the Dragon Grave that he wants to explore is extraordinary.
Ao Jiao, who was in the Immortal Spirit Ring, rationally continued her analysis for Xiao Chen. The most important thing is that with your current strength, you should be able to escape unscathed from a half-step Emperor Wu. You can consider yourself qualified to work with this person. You do not have to fear him playing any tricks.
"In that case, I'll listen to you. I'll go and see what's going on tonight."
A tense battle suddenly came to a halt. This confused several of the cultivators on the second floor.
However, this was the Dragon Grave Sea. There would never be a lack of topics to talk about. Soon, the restaurant regained its bustle.
Xiao Chen returned to his room and took out an Essence Stone to cultivate. Then, he quietly waited for the other party to summon him.
The cultivation of the Essence Stone allowed Xiao Chen's cultivation speed to improve at a gratifying rate. It had only been a short month since Xiao Chen left the Black Sea. However, he already reached the peak of Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor.
Right now, Xiao Chen was using the Essence Stone to temper his cultivation, laying down a good foundation.
After cultivating to the peak of Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor, Xiao Chen's Heavenly Laws had already doubled, reaching more than twenty thousand.
Furthermore, as Xiao Chen continuously tempered his Heavenly Laws, they became extremely dense, not loose at all. There would not be a situation where the Heavenly Laws only had quantity but no quality.
Now, Xiao Chen only needed to continue tempering his Heavenly Laws and obtain the Flower of Life and Death Fruit. Then, he could use the Life and Death Art to condense a Heart of an Emperor and break through to Consummation Blue Robed Emperor.
The night was as cool as water, and the moonlight was clear.
Xiao Chen, who was cultivating, heard soft footsteps. He opened his eyes and stopped cultivating, knowing that the news he was waiting for had arrived.
"Knock!
Knock! "Someone knocked on the door. A manservant outside said," Dear guest, there is an honored guest in a private room on the fifth floor who has an invitation for you. "
Xiao Chen pushed the door open and accepted the invitation. After asking which private room it was, he sent the manservant away.
There was no content in the invitation. It was just an invitation that did not reveal anything, making it seem extremely mysterious.
"I hope that you will not disappoint me."
After putting away the invitation, Xiao Chen carried some anticipation and caution as he went to the fifth floor and knocked on the door to the private room.
After presenting the invitation, someone invited him in. It turned out that there was a secret room inside. There was a secret pavilion in the private room.
There were many people in the secret pavilion. Including Dugu Ao, who had already arrived, there were a total of nine people. Including Xiao Chen, there were ten.
With a cursory glance, Xiao Chen had a rough idea of the situation. Aside from the black-clad old man sitting in the middle, who was the half-step Emperor Wu, the other eight people were all Consummation Blue Robed Emperor cultivators.
The other eight were all Consummation quasi-Emperors. Furthermore, they were more or less on the same level as Dugu Ao. Regardless of whether they were stronger or weaker, they all hid very deeply.
A middle-aged couple sat on the right. They carried swords on their backs. Among the group of ruthless people, they were the ones with the least evil aura.
Beside the half-step Emperor Wu was an extremely aged old man. This person was probably the oldest in the entire secret pavilion. Xiao Chen estimated that he was at least eight hundred years old.
This old man wore a straw raincoat and looked very aged. He looked like he did not care about the affairs of the world. When he saw Xiao Chen arrive, he did not even bat an eyelid.
There was also a Great Fatso with a lustful expression. He did not hide his gaze as he stared at the pretty, middle-aged woman with the sword on her back, making that middle-aged swordsman very unhappy.
The remaining three were two women and one man. They were all from the Fiend Race. Their baleful auras were very dense. Who knew how much blood they had on them?
One of the women was from the Poison Spider Race. She used black spider silk to make an indistinct spider silk robe. She had a voluptuous figure and a sinister face, giving off an enchanting air. The Poison Spider Race was considered a rather rare Fiend Race in the oceanic world. Xiao Chen's gaze lingered on them for a while longer.
One of the women was from the Silver Shark Race. She wore a black veil on her head and showed a cold expression. Xiao Chen could not make out what she was thinking.
The other was a Fiend Race man from the Huge Elephant Race. He had dark skin. When he saw Xiao Chen arrive, he appeared extremely hostile.
This was an extremely elite and luxurious team. Not only did they have the half-step Emperor Wu leading them, but the Consummation Blue Robed Emperor that came was also an excellent one.
With such a strong team, what kind of dragon grave could they not enter? Yet, the leader of this team was still worried, inviting Xiao Chen and Dugu Ao over.
"Boss Yang, even if you cannot find anyone, you don't have to make up the numbers. You even managed to recruit the Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor," the Huge Elephant Race man said indifferently when he saw Xiao Chen's hostile expression.
Not just anyone can go. Don't throw your life away. "
After saying that, the Huge Elephant Race man took a step forward and placed his hand on Xiao Chen's shoulder. Then, he exerted force, wanting to push Xiao Chen out.
The Huge Elephant Race was famous for their boundless strength. They were born with great physical strength. Just a gentle push from them could exert millions of kilograms of force.
Everyone knew that the speed at which Vital Qi circulated was much faster than Law Energy or Veritable Essence Energy. With a thought, one could send out their Vital Qi.
When several people saw the dark-skinned man suddenly make a move, they expected what would happen next. Xiao Chen would definitely get pushed out and crash into the walls of the secret pavilion.
However, to their surprise, when the dark-skinned man made his move, Xiao Chen, who was wearing the Fleeting Shadow Gloves, arrived first and placed his hand on the dark-skinned man's shoulder.
After that, there was a loud bang, and the dark-skinned man's body shot out like a cannonball. Then, he fell to the ground, caught off guard.
This scene was rather comical.
When everyone saw this scene, their eyes lit up. When they looked at Xiao Chen again, they all revealed cautious expressions.
This was especially so for Dugu Ao, who was clearly surprised. He had not expected Xiao Chen to have such great Physical Strength aside from his flashy actions.
While Xiao Chen's speed was a factor in pushing the Huge Elephant Race cultivator away, his Physical Strength could not be underestimated.
"Enough. There is no need for you to test the person I chose."
The half-step Emperor Wu raised his head and rapped the table, shouting to stop the dark-skinned man, who wanted to get up and continue fighting.
"Everyone has no objections to Dugu Ao's strength. I believe everyone has no objections to this little brother's strength, right?" Yang Kai said indifferently.
"Haha! To be able to make a Giant Elephant Race cultivator suffer such a great disadvantage in terms of Vital Qi, how could we have any objections?" the fatty said with a smile, making the dark-skinned Giant Elephant Race man extremely unhappy.
However, due to Yang Kai's face, the dark-skinned man could not lose his temper, so he could only endure sullenly.
All the cultivators expressed that they had no objections. After Yang Kai introduced himself, he looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Since Little Brother is here, you must have guessed some of my thoughts. In that case, I'll make it short. This old man discovered an Eight Star dragon grave that no one has visited before in this Dragon Grave Sea. If Little Brother is interested, you can join us. "
