Scenes of many half-step Emperor Wu kneeling on one knee, bitterly persevering flashed in Xiao Chen's mind. In contrast, there was a group of Martial Emperors watching coldly from the sidelines like they were inspecting the goods with expressionless expressions.
Xiao Chen thought about his own Emperor's Road. It was actually very similar to this group of half-step Emperor Wu's.
To Xiao Chen, advancing to Martial Emperor in five years was also an unknown hope. Since ancient times, no one had ever used five years to advance from Blue Robed Emperor to Emperor Wu.
What did they rely on? It was persistence. Enduring the cold gazes of thousands of people, never wavering, believing, and persevering.
After a long time, Xiao Chen returned to reality from his wandering thoughts. He sighed and said, "Who says I don't understand?"
Footsteps resounded. The Dragon Slayer Yi Ling led the five Emperor Wu's to the pavilion once more. Xiao Chen and Wang Yuzhu stopped talking. Then, they walked over together with the other half-step Emperor Wu's.
Yi Ling said, "Let's make things clear first. This time, we are in charge of this operation. All the treasures along the way, unless it is a divine medicine to treat the hidden injuries of the Great Tribulation of wind and fire, will be distributed by us first. If there is something that Senior Emperor Wu and the others do not fancy, the seven of you can distribute it among yourselves. Do you have any objections?
"If you have any objections, you can voice them. The seniors and I will not make things difficult for everyone."
Wang Yuzhu and the other half-step Emperor Wu's shook their heads to indicate that they had no objections. Before they came, they had already guessed that this would be the result and were not surprised.
Furthermore, they would not dare to snatch something that a Martial Emperor had his eyes on even if they had the guts.
Xiao Chen hesitated for a while, not in a rush to speak.
Yi Ling smiled faintly, appearing very interested in this mysterious masked youth. He asked, "What's wrong? Do you have any objections?"
Xiao Chen nodded to indicate that he did.
The other Emperor Wu's expression changed. Elder Hong even shouted coldly, "If you have something to say, then get lost. We don't need you."
The red-haired Emperor Wu seemed to value Xiao Chen's strength very much. He waved his hand to stop Senior Hong and said, "Let him finish first. If you have any objections, as long as it's not too much, I can satisfy them."
Xiao Chen said, "If it's a treasure that I find first, I have the priority to obtain it. As for the others, I have no opinion."
The red-haired Emperor Wu exchanged glances with Yi Ling and communicated via voice projection. After a while, he communicated with the other Emperor Wu's.
"This request isn't too much. He discovered the treasure first, so we'll just give it to him."
"Besides, I don't believe that his eyesight is better than ours."
"Yes, even if he has the ability to get the treasure, he won't be able to get out alive. If there really is a priceless treasure, it will be ours. "
Seeing that everyone else said so, Old Hong kept quiet, which was a tacit agreement.
After discussing for a while, Yi Ling said, "Alright, we agree to your request. Does anyone else have any objections?"
The other half-step Emperor Wu's had not expected these Emperor Wu's to really agree to Xiao Chen's request. They could not help feeling some regret. However, since they already said it, they could not go back on their word.
"Alright, I'll talk about something else. Our cooperation is mutually beneficial. No one will suffer a loss. During the operation, we have the authority to let you scout the way. You have to obey all our orders. Once you go back on your word, you will have to bear the consequences. It is still not too late to give up now. Otherwise, once you enter the Distant Sea Dragon Grave, you will not have the chance to regret it even if you want to. "
Yi Ling said indifferently, his voice somewhat cold.
The six half-step Emperor Wu's and Xiao Chen's did not choose to give up. If they regretted it, they would not have come in the first place.
Following that, Yi Ling started to explain the information about the Distant Sea Dragon Grave, as well as some things to take note of. As for the purpose of this trip, Yi Ling did not tell Xiao Chen and the others. He probably did not intend to tell them in advance.
Xiao Chen did not mind too much. His purpose was just to go and take a look. He did not have any special goals. If anything went wrong, he could use the Cycle Banner to charge out at any time.
However, it seemed like Xiao Chen had another purpose now. He wanted to see what kind of trump card allowed Yi Ling to obtain the title of Dragon Slayer and gain the qualifications to speak on equal terms with the group of Emperor Wu's.
The Treasure Master's identity was already mysterious enough in the first place. Now, this Yi Ling happened to appear in the Distant Sea Dragon Grave, which had a close connection to the Dragon's Gate. Could all this be as simple as a coincidence?
From the first time Xiao Chen saw Yi Ling, he felt a deep fear. If he did not figure out the reason for this feeling, there would always be a shadow in his heart.
When the morning sun rose, Yi Ling and the red-clad Emperor Wu discussed for a while and decided to depart immediately.
Xiao Chen could tell that this trip was mainly led by Yi Ling and that red-haired Emperor Wu. The other four Emperor Wu's did not have much decision-making authority. As for Xiao Chen and Xiao Chen, they did not have any decision-making authority. They were just cannon fodder here to scout.
If they were lucky and came out alive, regardless of whether they found the divine medicine or not, they would gain a great harvest.
If they were unlucky, losing an arm or a leg would be a small matter. They might even lose their lives.
Yi Ling took out his golden war chariot and carried the group of people to the sea region where the Distant Sea Dragon Grave was.
Xiao Chen casually sized up the war chariot. In terms of speed, this war chariot was not much faster than the flood dragon war chariot.
However, in terms of combat prowess, his flood dragon war chariot was not on the same level.
The decorations and sculptures around the golden war chariot were not done casually. They were just there for the sake of aesthetics. They all had a deep meaning. With a thought, Yi Ling could immediately activate a great killing formation.
There were also many hidden formations that Xiao Chen could not see through. This war chariot was probably the reason why Yi Ling dared to barge into the Dragon Grave Sea alone.
The golden war chariot flew for most of the day in the clouds before slowly descending.
A vast sea region covered in white fog appeared before everyone's eyes. The fog was hazy, making it impossible to see clearly. What was in there was mysterious and unfathomable. This was the Distant Sea Dragon Grave where the Dragon Kings were buried.
Who knew what kind of dangers and temptations this great forbidden land had?
"Young Master Yi, I heard that you went to the depths of the Distant Sea Dragon Grave in the past and came out unscathed. This time, the pressure on us should be much lower, right?"
A hemp-robed old man among the half-step Emperor Wu said respectfully.
Yi Ling glanced at this hemp-robed old man and said indifferently, "Don't think it's that simple. If I were as divine as the rumors say, I would not have invited Seniors to come with me. Furthermore, the place I am going this time has nothing to do with the previous one. Everything has to start over. "
"Whoosh!"
Right after Yi Ling spoke, he put away the golden war chariot. Then, he looked at the sun in the sky. After getting his bearings, he led the group into the fog.
Only when he was in the fog did Xiao Chen realize that he was standing on land and not the sea as he had imagined.
Amidst the thick fog, Zhang Xuan couldn't sense his direction at all. His visibility was limited to two hundred meters, and beyond that, he couldn't see anything.
Xiao Chen was no exception. However, the instant he landed, a strange feeling surged in his heart. There seemed to be something in the depths of the Distant Sea Dragon Tomb calling out to him.
Ever since it became a Nascent Soul, the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit, which had been in a deep slumber, suddenly opened its eyes in the dantian. It seemed to be extremely excited and wanted to let out a roar.
The instant the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit opened its eyes, the leader, Yi Ling, suddenly stopped.
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. He felt an extremely dangerous aura. He forcefully controlled his Blue Dragon Martial Spirit and closed his eyes. Then, he circulated the Origin Returning Technique to the extreme, finally concealing the existence of the Blue Dragon Martial Soul.
Yi Ling turned his head back to glance, feeling somewhat suspicious. After a while, he said slowly, "Be careful. I just sensed the aura of the Dragon Race. However, it quickly vanished. We are already being watched. It is likely to be a bone dragon. Be careful. "
"That can't be. We just entered the Distant Sea Dragon Tomb. We are not even in the periphery, and there is already danger," a half-step Emperor Wu exclaimed in shock.
The other half-step Emperor Wu felt confused as well. This was extremely abnormal. Normally, as long as one did not enter the periphery, there would not be any danger.
Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Yi Ling had not discovered him. Then, he started to pay more attention. This Yi Ling definitely had some trump card that countered the Dragon Race. I have to figure it out.
At the same time, Xiao Chen thought to himself, I came to the right place. This Distant Sea Dragon Tomb does indeed have a strong connection to the Dragon's Gate and me.
"You, go ahead and scout the way. Just follow the directions that Young Master Yi gives you."
Suddenly, Old Hong said, wanting to send Xiao Chen to the very front.
Xiao Chen's expression did not change as he smiled coldly to himself. This old fellow is really petty. The moment he heard that there was danger, he immediately sent me to the very front.
However, it did not matter, as Xiao Chen knew that there was no danger at all. Earlier, it was just his Blue Dragon Martial Spirit that attracted Yi Ling's attention.
Yi Ling, who was leading the way, thought for a while and agreed with Old Hong's point of view. "I'll tell you where to go. Don't go astray. There is the breath of the Dragon Race in this fog. It can confuse one's sense of direction. If you go astray, even a half-step Emperor Wu would find it difficult to come out. "
Seeing Xiao Chen walk forward, the other half-step Emperor Wu all revealed expressions of sympathy. This was the result of offending Emperor Wu. If there was any danger, he would use you to scout the way first, using some tricks to kill you.
"I'll go with you," Wang Yuzhu said.
Displeasure flashed in Old Hong's eyes. He retorted coldly, "What are you trying to show off for? Did I say you could go in front? Just stay here obediently. Once we reach the Distant Sea Dragon Grave, you will not be able to make decisions for yourselves."
Old Hong's words made clear Old Hong's attitude. He wanted to target Xiao Chen.
"There's no need. I can go alone."
Xiao Chen felt confident in his heart. He rejected Wang Yuzhu's kind intentions and asked Yi Ling for directions. Then, he headed straight ahead.
"Pu ci!"
However, not long after Xiao Chen took more than ten steps, the ground under his feet suddenly cracked. Before he could react, a shockwave rushed out of the ground and knocked him into the air.
A huge dragon claw extended from the ground, clawing at Xiao Chen in the air. From a distance, Xiao Chen looked extremely insignificant before that huge dragon claw.
There was really danger. Caught off guard, Xiao Chen was knocked into the air. When he saw the tough dragon claw more than ten times larger than him flying at him, he felt like crying.
It turned out that what Yi Ling sensed was not the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit in his body.
