The Flame Rock Sovereign did not seem willing to speak about this. He put down his teacup and smiled. "Let's not talk about this anymore. Since you already condensed the Heart of an Emperor, you should ask more about cultivation. With my strength, I should be able to give you some pointers."
Xiao Chen felt embarrassed in his heart. He quickly said, "Senior is being too humble. This junior would be more than happy to receive pointers. I will definitely gain a lot."
Upon hearing this, the Flame Rock Sovereign rejoiced in his heart. This Xiao Chen still understood the big picture. He did not become arrogant and ignorant because of his current accomplishments.
In reality, with the Flame Rock Sovereign's current strength, even one hundred Xiao Chen would not be a match for him.
The Flame Rock Sovereign smiled and said, "Come, let me see your Primordial Energy first."
After saying that, the Flame Rock Sovereign placed a finger on Xiao Chen's forehead. Xiao Chen did not resist, allowing the other party's Spiritual Sense to enter his body.
After a while, the Flame Rock Sovereign released his finger. In that instant, Xiao Chen felt a beam of light quickly circle his body.
The other party clearly saw the Law Energy in his body, the Vital Qi of his physical body, and the Mental Energy in his sea of consciousness.
"What a fellow! Before advancing to Martial Emperor, you already have ten strands of Primordial Energy. Furthermore, they are so dense. Half-step Golden Body, ten strands of Primordial Energy, a seventh-layer saber soul, and a peak will of thunder. Right now, your overall combat prowess is no weaker than that of a First Heaven Martial Emperor like Emperor Wu. "
Xiao Chen listened quietly. The Flame Rock Sovereign had not finished speaking yet. The latter part was what he was most interested in.
The Flame Rock Sovereign withdrew his smile and continued, "However, I can tell you clearly that it is practically impossible for you to clear your Great Tribulation of wind and fire with just these."
Xiao Chen did not reveal any displeasure. He said seriously, "Senior, please give me pointers."
The Flame Rock Sovereign nodded to himself and said, "Stay with me for a while. I will focus on giving you pointers for this one month."
When Xiao Chen heard that, he rejoiced and said, "Many thanks, Senior."
Time was very precious for a Sovereign Martial Emperor. Xiao Chen was not master and disciple, nor did he have a blood relationship with the Flame Rock Sovereign. He was willing to stop his cultivation for a month to guide him. Needless to say, this opportunity was extremely precious.
"You're too polite. I'll use the power of a normal half-step Emperor Wu to exchange pointers with you. There is no need to use Primordial Energy. You can use any trump cards you have. First, I will show you how to bring out your full strength without wasting it. "
Hearing this, Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback and said with slight surprise, "Senior, isn't that a bit too much? Right now, I am facing Emperor Wu of the First Layer of Heaven, and I still have the power to fight him."
The Flame Rock Sovereign smiled and said, "In that case, I'll make a bet with you. I'll give you ten chances to make a move. As long as you can make him take one step back, it will be your win. If you win, I will give you a big gift that you absolutely need. If you lose, give me all your peak grade Thousand Year Flame. "
"Alright, it's a deal then!"
Xiao Chen did not even think about it before agreeing. If Xiao Chen wanted to defeat the Flame Rock Sovereign, who only used the strength of a half-step Emperor Wu, he might be shocked, but he also had some doubts.
However, Xiao Chen absolutely did not believe that he could knock the other party back.
This was not blind arrogance but confidence in his own strength. There was no need to undervalue himself.
Xiao Chen held the Lunar Shadow Saber and looked at the Flame Rock Sovereign. "Senior, are you ready?"
"You can make your move at any time."
"Alright. In that case, sorry for the offense!"
There was a total of ten chances to make a move. Out of caution and confidence in his own strength, Xiao Chen did not use his Primordial Energy on the first move.
He directly used his Heavenly Laws to execute the Thousand Year Great Establishment. A boundless tyrannical aura of kingship spread out from Xiao Chen's body in an overwhelming manner.
Xiao Chen's figure flashed, and many cities appeared in the air. Millions of people appeared in the cities, kneeling and chanting "Long live!"
Xiao Chen's aura surged like a surging wave, instantly reaching its peak. When the cheers of "Long live" merged into one, Xiao Chen's tyrannical Thousand Year Hegemony Establishment hacked down ruthlessly.
Of all the Medial Grade Profound Martial Techniques that Xiao Chen grasped, the Thousand Year Hegemony Establishment was the most tyrannical. Xiao Chen was rather confident of using this move to force back the Flame Rock Sovereign.
Xiao Chen found it hard to believe that the half-step Emperor Wu would not take half a step back after receiving this move head-on.
Even the Flame Rock Sovereign would not be an exception. "Retreat!"
The dynasty's tyrannical aura howled, displaying the Luck of a dynasty for a thousand years. The saber strike that Xiao Chen sent out perfectly carried this Luck.
Being able to use and withdraw a Medial Grade Profound Martial Technique as one pleased was a sign of reaching the next level. Being able to use and withdraw as one pleased was a sign of reaching Small Perfection.
The next level was becoming one with the will, comprehending the state contained in the Profound Martial Technique and infusing it into the move. This was the sign of a Great Perfection Martial Technique.
The final level was moving as one with the will. With a thought, before one made a move, all the mysterious phenomena of the Martial Technique would be completed in an instant.
The instant one drew the weapon, all the might of the Martial Technique would burst forth. This was peak Consummation.
Every Martial Technique had these four levels: Reaching the next level, Small Perfection, Great Perfection, and finally Consummation.
The higher the grade of a Martial Technique, the more difficult it was to cultivate. For a Medial Grade Profound Martial Technique, a regular Minor Heavenly Emperor Wu would find it very difficult to reach Great Perfection unless he cultivated it for more than a hundred years.
However, Xiao Chen's Thousand Year Hegemony Establishment was clearly only a step away from Great Perfection.
The Flame Rock Sovereign nodded to himself in praise. No wonder this Xiao Chen was so confident before him. He was indeed a genius, startlingly talented.
However, Xiao Chen was still lacking something. It would be somewhat difficult to knock him back.
The Flame Rock Sovereign watched as that powerful saber light chopped down. When it was less than three meters away, he moved.
The Flame Rock Sovereign ferociously pushed his right hand forward, and his entire body turned scarlet like he had turned into a flame crystal. His entire body burned.
However, when the Flame Rock Sovereign was about to clash with Xiao Chen's saber light, the flames on his entire body surged towards the Flame Rock Sovereign's index finger like a river.
In that instant, the flame on the Flame Rock Sovereign's fingertip became incredibly dazzling, completely blocking out the sunlight. The entire world suddenly turned dark. Only that spot of light remained dazzling and piercing.
"Ka!"
When the Flame Rock Sovereign's fingertip touched the saber light, space tore. Someone took ten steps back before he could stabilize himself. It was not the Flame Rock Sovereign but Xiao Chen, who had chopped down with absolute confidence.
Xiao Chen felt shocked. How did he do it? How did he gather all the energy in his body at one point, not wasting any at all?
If Xiao Chen had done this himself, his finger would have exploded immediately. Not only would he not be able to injure his opponent, but he would also end up crippling himself.
Emperor Wu's Golden Body?
That's not right. Since Senior Flame Rock Sovereign said that he would only use the strength of a half-step Emperor Wu, he definitely would not go back on his word.
After getting knocked back in one move, Xiao Chen did not panic. Instead, he calmly analyzed the situation.
The Flame Rock Sovereign revealed a smile on his face. Not bad. Such a mental state is hard to come by.
After thinking for a long time, Xiao Chen could not understand what was going on. The other party's technique was too scary. The Thousand Year Hegemony Establishment was already the Flame Rock Sovereign's most tyrannical Martial Technique. If he could not even succeed with this, his other Martial Techniques would not be effective.
If Xiao Chen wanted to use Primordial Energy, forget it. If he used Primordial Energy, even if he won by luck, he would feel that he had an unfair advantage.
"I admit defeat."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. Then, he took out all the Thousand Year Flame that Mo Chen left for him from the Universe Ring, feeling some heartache.
"Hahaha!" The Flame Rock Sovereign laughed loudly and stretched out his hand, wanting to pull all the Thousand Year Flame into his spatial ring.
"Humph!"
Just at this moment, Ao Jiao, who was in the Immortal Spirit Ring, moved to the side at some point in time. Then, she snorted coldly with her lips curled up.
Xiao Chen glanced at the Flame Rock Sovereign, clearly hinting at him to try and take it away if you dare. Then, she raised her head to the sky, not looking at the Flame Rock Sovereign.
The Flame Rock Sovereign withdrew his cocky smile. Feeling somewhat guilty from Ao Jiao's glare, he smiled embarrassedly and said, "Little Brother, you are getting serious, getting serious. I was just joking."
"Hehe! I just knew that Little Ba would not bully the weak. A senior is a senior."
Ao Jiao's expression changed in the blink of an eye, turning into a radiant smile. Then, she walked over and hugged all the Thousand Year Flame on the ground. Then, she said, "That's right. What big gift? I already said it. Just take it out. Why are you still hiding it?"
When Xiao Chen saw the situation, he quickly said, "Ao Jiao, I lost the bet …"
A smile bloomed on Ao Jiao's face. Then, she blinked and looked at the Flame Rock Sovereign. "Is that so?"
The Flame Rock Sovereign looked at the Thousand Year Flame in Ao Jiao's embrace. Then, he gulped and said, "Yes, yes. No, no. Little Friend Xiao Chen, the bet was just a joke. Given my seniority, how can I bet with you? Here, this is a greeting gift. "
After saying that, the Flame Rock Sovereign tossed out a jade bottle with a pained expression. Xiao Chen caught it and opened the bottle cap. Instantly, a familiar aura surged out, startling him into losing his calm.
"This is …"
"That's right. This is a Primordial Pill, a total of ten. Every one hundred years, I use Primordial Energy to refine one. Originally, I left it for that brat Ba Yan. Now, I'll give it to you. Use it well. I believe that you will be able to clear your Great Tribulation of wind and fire. "
It was really a Primordial Pill. How vast was the amount of Primordial Energy needed to refine Primordial Energy into a pill? Furthermore, the Flame Rock Sovereign also needed Primordial Energy to cultivate. One pill every one hundred years was definitely worth it.
This gift was too heavy. Xiao Chen felt somewhat ashamed to accept it. However, he was reluctant to give it up.
"There's no need to stand on ceremony. I believe that you are not a person who likes to stand on ceremony."
Xiao Chen carefully put away the ten Primordial Pills. These ten Primordial Pills were simply too precious. No wonder the Flame Rock Sovereign said that he definitely needed them.
Ao Jiao walked over happily and took the Primordial Pills from Xiao Chen's hands. Then, she winked at Xiao Chen and whispered, "I'll help you put them away first. Remember to squeeze out more from him. Back then, this Ba Yan dared to call me Big Sister. There is no need to stand on ceremony with him!"
When the Flame Rock Sovereign, who already had a pained expression, heard that, his lips twitched again for some reason.
After Ao Jiao was far away, Xiao Chen said, "Senior, the brewer of this Thousand Year Flame is on my Heavenly Star Island. When I return to my conferred land, I'll ask her to brew some more Peak Grade Thousand Year Flame and send them over. "
Upon hearing this, the Flame Rock Sovereign smiled and said, "Good, good, good. You must remember that I love fine wine the most, especially strong wine. I've drunk this Thousand Year Flame once, and I can't forget it anymore."
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Definitely."
The Flame Rock Sovereign withdrew his smile and turned serious. He said, "In this one month of guidance, I will not teach you any Martial Techniques. I will only teach you three things. The first is what you saw earlier. It allows you to gather all your energy at one point. That is the Sharp Spirit Finger. Although it is called a finger, once you truly grasp it, you will be able to use it as you please. You can use every part of your body, not just your fingertip. "
