In less than a day, all the upper echelon of the peak factions of the Kunlun Realm received this news.
In the circle of Martial Emperors, this piece of news caused a huge commotion. Almost every Martial Emperor who met would talk about this news at the same time.
Emperor Wu had always been aloof. No matter how strong cultivators who had not advanced to Martial Emperor were, they were like ants in Emperor Wu's eyes.
Such a situation had persisted for many years.
However, now, a Consummation Blue Robed Emperor was going to challenge someone who had been a Martial Emperor for many years. This was simply too shocking. If an ordinary person did this, everyone would just treat it as a joke and not care.
However, this challenger was the Blue Dragon King, Xiao Chen, a youth who had created many miracles. Before he advanced to Martial Emperor, everyone in Emperor Wu's circle knew about him.
The weight of this challenge was too great, so much so that Emperor Wu had to pay special attention to it. There was no other reason than the challenger's name.
In a mountain manor in Heaven Dragon City, the few Emperor Wu's who went to slay demons gathered together.
"Old Bai, your challenge this time kicked up a storm in our entire Emperor Wu's circle. How confident are you?" an old man from the Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace asked.
Right now, the Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace had the greatest conflict with Xiao Chen. Naturally, they paid the most attention to this battle. As long as Xiao Chen died, the hearts of Heavenly Star Island's people would naturally die as well.
The Five Poison Sect's Old Bai smiled and said, "I do not dare to say that I am completely confident, but I have a ninety-nine percent chance. I have already been a Martial Emperor for five hundred years. As long as we can drag this out for two hours, he will not stand a chance at all. The Cultivation Techniques and Martial Techniques of my Five Poison Sect will make him beg for death. "
"However, that Xiao Chen's Sharp Spirit Finger is rather horrifying. Old Bai, you should be careful," an old man from an ancient Noble Clan said calmly.
A hint of fear flashed in Old Bai's eyes. "Of course, but it's not a trump card anymore. His Telepathic Finger hasn't been trained to perfection. I'll be able to deal with him if I'm careful. Besides, it's not like I'm completely unprepared. "
"What preparations?" The others asked curiously. The power of the Telepathic Finger was boundlessly ferocious. Could it be that Elder Bai already had a way to deal with it?
Old Bai smiled mysteriously. "There is still one more day. You will know when the time comes. I can only say that a major character of the Kunlun Continent's Deity Race sent a clone here last night and came into contact with me alone."
"Emperor Forsaken!"
The others gasped in surprise. Emperor Forsaken was a big shot second only to the Thunder King, yet he was personally participating in this duel.
Elder Bai neither denied nor admitted it. He said coldly, "In short, this brat will die after tomorrow. The resources exchanged for his head will definitely be enough for me to pass the Second Heavenly Tribulation. "
Envious expressions flashed in the eyes of the other Emperor Wu's. Xiao Chen's head was really valuable.
Normally, no one dared to touch him. However, this time, he was the one who challenged them. In a battle to the death, if he killed Xiao Chen, there would be no need to worry about the Thunder King's revenge. Xiao Chen only had himself to blame.
The few Emperor Wu's people started to congratulate Xiao Chen in advance. After the Qing Emperor, Xiao Chen was a thorn in many people's sides. If Xiao Chen died, it would not be just the Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace but the many Holy Masters of the Heavenly Starry Ocean who would be grinning from ear to ear.
Elder Bai's smile widened, his eyes filled with satisfaction. He was just waiting to kill Xiao Chen when the time came.
At the summit of the desolate mountain, heavy clouds churned in the sky for a kilometer around Xiao Chen. Thunder rumbled in the clouds.
Although one could hear it, one could not see it.
All the light within a thousand meters seemed to have gathered on a single person.
That was a white figure. His figure did not look very majestic. His delicate face did not give off a very tyrannical feeling.
However, when he stood at the summit, he was very eye-catching. Even without doing anything, he could instantly attract everyone's attention.
Be it the tall mountain under one's feet, the clouds in the sky, or the rumbling thunder, everything would vanish.
When you step into this thousand-year area, everything will disappear. All you will see is this faintly discernible white figure, who has gathered all the "light" in this world.
Xiao Chen watched all this with satisfaction. His lips curled up in a satisfied smile.
After three days of Lan Chaofeng's guidance, Xiao Chen finally understood what going from momentum to subtlety was.
Simply put, going from momentum to subtlety was hiding the originally vast aura in all the unknown details of the entire space.
Unfortunately, three days was too short. Xiao Chen could not comprehend much and could not achieve Lan Chaofeng's silent drizzle. Silent and in harmony with the sky, there were no openings, no weakness to exploit.
If Xiao Chen improved further, he could even hide the thunder and make the heavy clouds vanish.
With a thought, the area within one kilometer became his domain. Lightning moved as Xiao Chen willed. The saber intent filling the air was everywhere.
However, this was fine. Xiao Chen was already very satisfied with his improvement in three days.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes, and a murderous intent surged out. He moved one kilometer in one step and swung his saber.
He discovered that with this step, the thunderclouds in the sky silently moved one kilometer. However, it was still centered around Xiao Chen. It was like nothing had changed.
The only thing that changed was the hidden saber intent. When Xiao Chen swung his saber, all the rocks, withered grass, and tree branches within one kilometer burst out with a startling saber intent.
The saber intent filling the air was everywhere, making one feel that there was nowhere to hide within one kilometer. It was like everything was his enemy, the entire world rejecting him.
All this was because Xiao Chen drew his saber.
By the time Xiao Chen sheathed his saber, the saber intent filling the air instantly vanished, turning into nothing. The earlier scene was like an illusion, never having happened.
"Not bad. You have already reached the initial step of going from power to subtlety. The area within one kilometer is your world. No matter what kind of domain, be it the Saber Domain, the Sword Domain, the Water Domain, or the Fire Domain, the focus is on the last 'domain.' "
Xiao Chen scattered his Saber Domain, and the thunderclouds vanished. Then, he said humbly, "It is still not enough. Compared to Senior, I am far from it."
Lan Chaofeng smiled and said, "At least you are aware of your limitations. However, I have nothing else to teach you. You have already grasped the basics. You just need to slowly comprehend it."
"Senior, I have a question."
"Speak!" Lan Chaofeng said straightforwardly.
After some thought, Xiao Chen said, "I want to know how to fight with an opponent of the same domain and find their weakness. For example, how should I break Senior's Superior Water Saber Domain? "
When Lan Chaofeng heard that, he laughed loudly, "What a brat! You are really bold, daring to ask anything. Have you heard of the saying, 'Teaching the disciple to starve to death'? Right now, you are not trying to starve me to death. You are clearly trying to force me to death. "
Xiao Chen smiled and did not say anything. Now, he more or less understood Lan Chaofeng's temper. This old man had a strange temper, but he was definitely not the kind of person who haggled over minor matters.
Indeed, after Lan Chaofeng finished laughing, he said, "Don't overthink. There is no trick or trick to this. You feel that my Superior Water Saber Domain is not easy to deal with, but I also feel that your Thunder Saber Domain is not easy to deal with. The one who goes further and comprehends it more thoroughly will have the advantage in battle.
"Are you satisfied with my answer?"
Xiao Chen thought about it for a while before commenting, "Not really. However, one day, I will find the weakness of your domain. There is no such thing as nothing without a weakness."
Lan Chaofeng glared at Xiao Chen and said, "You really dare to brag. In the entire Kunlun Realm, even the Prime, the Thunder King, would not dare to say something like that."
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and did not refute Lan Chaofeng's words. The reason he said this was related to his Flawless saber Dao. The Flawless Dao never believed that there was anything truly perfect and flawless in the world.
If Xiao Chen did not even have this bit of skepticism, then his Dao would instantly crumble. His perseverance as a bladesman would crumble, and he would lose his heart.
Whoosh! "
The sound of wind came from the foot of the mountain. That was the sound of someone rushing over at an extremely fast speed, giving off sonic booms.
Xiao Chen and Lan Chaofeng did not turn their heads back. They each sensed for a while and knew that Lan Shaobai had arrived.
"Shaobai is here. Your battle with that old man should be starting soon. The Five Poison Sect is famous for its poison attacks. However, at Emperor Wu's level, he has cultivated the Golden Body. There are very few poisons in the world that can threaten Emperor Wu. However, you do not have the Golden Body yet. So, you have to end this battle quickly. It would be best if you finish off your opponent within one hour. "
Lan Chaofeng was still very concerned about Xiao Chen. He gave Xiao Chen a detailed explanation of the upcoming battle and some things that he needed to take note of.
"As long as you end the battle within one hour, even if you are poisoned, it will not affect the battle."
Xiao Chen memorized everything. Then, he performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "Many thanks, Senior."
Lan Chaofeng waved his hand, and his figure slowly vanished. "I will not see Shaobai. This fellow is very crafty now. Previously, he mocked me even more than Tianqi did."
Right after Lan Chaofeng left, Lan Shaobai landed with the wind. He asked doubtfully, "Where's Master? I seemed to have seen him earlier. "
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "I have something to do, so I left first. Have you chosen the time?"
"I have. It is on the twenty-eighth of this month."
Xiao Chen calculated. Today was the thirteenth. That was to say, the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony would officially start half a month later.
"For the reestablishment ceremony, I referenced the reestablishment ceremonies of some ancient sects. Then, I made some changes based on the situation in Heaven Dragon City. As I said previously, the main event is to pay respects to the ancestors. "
Lan Shaobai continued, "When Heaven Dragon City was first constructed, Mo Chen used the bodies of those Dragon's Gate's War Venerates to build a Blue Dragon Tomb in the north of the city. That is where we will pay respects to the ancestors."
Xiao Chen nodded, having no objections. Even after these Dragon's Gate's War Venerates died and turned into puppets, they still guarded the Dragon's Gate's Treasure Trove until they died. Xiao Chen continued to guard the Dragon's Gate's Treasure Trove, not resting until death. He, Xiao Chen, did three kowtows and nine kowtows.
Perhaps not all of these ancestors were of the Dragon's Gate's Xiao Clan's direct line of descent. However, they were loyal and could not be erased.
"Come, then. Come with me to meet that old man from the Five Poison Sect. We have to announce the reestablishment of the Dragon's Gate to the world.
