Three days later, the fatigued group finally walked out of the desolate plain of fire.
With Yi Ling leading the way, they passed through many hidden tunnels. One hour later, a vast and majestic grave appeared before the group. Rows of flaming red sculptures lined both sides of the road. The air was incredibly dry. It felt like the air they exhaled could ignite.
At the end of the road was a mysterious formation that sunk into the ground. There was a circular hole in the middle of the formation. It was somewhat far away and could not be seen clearly with the naked eye.
"This is the grave of the Fire Dragon General. Is this your destination?" a half-step Emperor Wu exclaimed in shock.
The Fire Dragon General was one of the old Dragon King's Eight Great Generals. Aside from the main grave, it was one of the eight most valuable graves in the Distant Sea Dragon Grave.
However, it was rumored that even Sovereign Martial Emperors were helpless before this grave. Could it be that Yi Ling's group had a way to open the grave?
Yi Ling smiled faintly and said, "You guessed right. However, sorry, there is no reward."
"Pu ci!"
The five Emperor Wu's attacked at the same time, each executing a killing move and mercilessly attacking the seven half-step Emperor Wu's.
The red-haired, middle-aged man struck the first half-step Emperor Wu's who spoke and burned him to ashes.
The other four Emperor Wu's also attacked. Although they all struck one person, they could not achieve a one-hit kill. The difference in strength was clear for all to see.
As for Xiao Chen and Wang Yuzhu, they had been paying attention. When the other party unleashed their killing intent, they quickly turned and fled, dodging the first wave of attacks.
"Leave these two fellows to me!"
A greedy look flashed in Old Hong's eyes. He rushed ahead of the other Emperor Wu's to chase after Xiao Chen and Wang Yuzhu.
"Ye Chen, you are right. This group of Emperor Wu's is too deranged. What benefits can they gain from killing us half-step Emperor Wu's?"
As Wang Yuzhu fled, he still could not figure it out. Originally, he thought that this mission would be more difficult.
Unexpectedly, at the last moment, Emperor Wu would personally kill them.
No matter how he thought about it, he could not figure out why. What benefits could a half-step Emperor Wu's gain from killing them?
In the past, Emperor Wu's had recruited half-step Emperor Wu's to explore the Distant Sea Dragon Grave. Although the mortality rate was high, there had never been a situation where a half-step Emperor Wu was killed.
Even if a half-step Emperor Wu fancied a treasure, they could just force it. How could a half-step Emperor Wu compete with a true Emperor Wu? In the end, they would obediently hand it over.
Of a monster like Ye Chen was an exception..
Xiao Chen smiled coldly and said, "Are you surprised? "Emperor Emperor Chen," Emperor Of the said, "Emperor, Star," Emperor Thousand., "Emperor, I said," Ling Chen, I said.
"What do we do now? Isn't it too difficult for the two of us to walk out alive?"
"Chen and of and and and a, and all, and said, Ling and said, of.. and,..,,,,,, and, and..
. "" Don't worry. Just follow me, "Xiao Chen said calmly.
Suddenly, maniacal laughter reverberated behind them. "Brat, now you know how to run. Weren't you very cocky back then? Why are you running? If you have the guts, stop. This old man will squish you to death with one hand! "
The maniacal laughter carried a heavy Emperor's Might that could topple mountains and flip the seas.
"Rumble …!"
Emperor's Might spread out, surging over. Old Hong's maniacal laughter ripped off a layer of the ground under their feet, forming a storm that surged towards the two.
Wang Yuzhu's expression changed. "Oh no! This old fellow is chasing us. It will be hard for us to escape now."
The two looked back and saw Old Hong tearing space with his bare hands. His figure pierced through the void. Although he did not travel far, his speed was faster than the two's Movement Techniques.
Furthermore, with the storm behind them interfering, it was only a matter of time before Old Hong caught up to them.
Only this guy managed to catch up to us?
Xiao Chen opened his Heavenly Eye and looked back. Indeed, only Old Hong was chasing them.
The other Emperor Wu must have gone to chase the others.
"Masked brat, aren't you rather gutsy? To think that you dared to clash with me in front of so many people, causing me to lose face. Why are you running now? "
The rage that Old Hong had suppressed in his heart for a long time erupted. His roar was like thunder, making everyone flustered. Anyone who heard this voice could feel the overwhelming killing intent in it.
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen closed his Heavenly Eye and turned around, stopping just like that.
This startled Wang Yuzhu. "Ye Chen, are you crazy?"
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. Then, his face sank, and a murderous intent appeared in his eyes. "It is just a First Heaven Emperor Wu. Watch how I kill this old fellow!"
Old Hong, who had been chasing Xiao Chen in the distance, suddenly sensed that Xiao Chen had stopped. His face immediately lit up in joy. "Little brat, you really dare to stop? Do you think that I cannot kill you?"
After saying that, Old Hong estimated the distance and took two steps forward. Each step covered one kilometer. Then, he thrust his sword and tore a tear in space, disappearing in a flash.
Old Hong prepared to cross space and suddenly appear, dealing a killing blow to Xiao Chen.
"Pu ci!"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. He sensed a tear in space ten meters in front of him. The speed at which the tear extended was incredibly fast. In the next moment, Old Hong leaped out of it.
However, to Old Hong's surprise, Xiao Chen did not seem surprised at all when Old Hong tore space and charged over. It was like he had guessed it long ago.
At some point in time, a war banner flickering with five-colored starlight appeared in Xiao Chen's hand.
What Secret Treasure is that? Old Hong's eyelids twitched, feeling a bad premonition.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Die!"
Xiao Chen's lips curled up in a cold smile. The instant Old Hong leaped out of the spatial tear, Xiao Chen raised the Cycle Banner in his hand and charged over.
In the next moment, Wang Yuzhu saw a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.
Suddenly, all the dark clouds in the sky scattered. Thousands of stars in the pitch-black night sky formed a magnificent and enchanting scene.
Five beams of starlight of different colors formed a beam of light that soared into the sky. Suddenly, it descended from the sky and formed a gorgeous, colorful screen of light behind Xiao Chen.
The screen of light continued endlessly, looking like a dream.
When Xiao Chen held the Cycle Banner, it was like he was holding a divine spear. When the five states merged, the boundless Astral Energy carried by them reached the peak of speed.
Before Zhang Xuan could react, Old Hong, who was still holding onto his sword, maintained his posture of leaping down.
The tip of the banner stabbed into Old Hong's chest. With a 'pu ci' sound, a bowl-sized hole appeared on his chest. The hole was smooth and flat without any gaps.
"Piercing through the void? That is an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure in your hand. How is this possible?!"
When Old Hong saw the wound on his chest, an expression of extreme horror appeared in his eyes. He could not imagine how a Consummation Blue Robed Emperor could control the might of an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure so freely.
If Old Hong had known that Xiao Chen could control an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure, he would not have dared to chase after Xiao Chen even if he was a hundred times more courageous.
Xiao Chen smiled coldly. "Don't think that you are unrivaled just because you became Emperor Wu. You are just a First Heaven Layer. Even the Primes I have seen are not as arrogant as you!"
"Pa!"
Xiao Chen swung the banner violently like a slap to Old Hong's face, knocking him down from the sky. Half of his face immediately shattered.
After Old Hong left, a black hole remained in the sky, lingering for a long time. As for the spatial tear that Old Hong tore earlier, it had already healed quickly. This was truly piercing through the void.
Flee!
After Old Hong landed, blood flowed endlessly from his mouth. This was the only thought in his mind. Only by regrouping with the red-haired Emperor Wu would he be able to survive. Given Old Hong's current condition, he was no match for Xiao Chen.
Even with the recovery ability of Emperor Wu's Golden Body, the black hole-like wound on Old Hong's chest could not heal. Old Hong's entire heart had been erased. If Old Hong did not find a place to treat his injuries quickly, he would die even if Xiao Chen did not make a move.
After Xiao Chen thrust out, he realized that he was wrong. However, he still thrust at Old Hong's chest out of habit. To Emperor Wu, the chest was no longer a fatal spot. What was important was the location of the Heart of an Emperor.
However, it did not matter. This old fellow no longer had any combat prowess. There was no way for him to survive.
Xiao Chen unfurled the Cycle Banner, and the sound of surging waves resounded, causing the entire space to fluctuate.
When Xiao Chen looked in the direction that Old Hong left, he tossed the banner in his hand forward.
The banner flew out like a javelin. Instantly, the entire Starry Heavens moved with the Cycle Banner.
Five-colored starlight spread out, looking like raindrops falling from the sky. Old Hong felt like he could not run anymore. Right now, Old Hong's physical body was incomplete. He could not even drive his Primordial Energy. The space fluctuated like water, filled with resistance.
He turned his head to take a look. What he saw was the last thing he saw in this world.
The Cycle Banner arrived like a meteor. With a 'pu ci' sound, it stabbed into the place where Old Hong's Heart of an Emperor was. The banner pierced through his physical body and pinned him to the ground.
Xiao Chen killed Emperor Wu in two moves.
Wang Yuzhu felt like he was seeing things. Did he see wrong? He rubbed his eyes and looked carefully. Indeed, he did not see wrong.
Old Hong, who had been running frantically and boasting about killing Xiao Chen, was indeed pinned to the ground.
Motes of white light came from Old Hong's body. They were incredibly white, containing dense and pure energy.
That was the Heart of an Emperor slowly dying. When the light scattered, it would die completely.
Right now, Xiao Chen was exhausted. When he controlled the fusion of the five states, he had already drained the ten strands of Primordial Energy.
The Mental Energy in his sea of consciousness drained even more terrifyingly. Every state contained vast astral energy. Furthermore, their attributes were very distinct and not easy to merge.
If Xiao Chen was not careful, there would be an explosion. At that time, he would not be able to injure the enemy. Instead, the backlash would cripple him.
In reality, every time Xiao Chen used that dream-like attack, he gambled with his life.
"Xiao Chen, quickly absorb that light. It is very useful to you. Be faster. Don't wait for it to scatter. "
