As he descended, countless sharp wind blades suddenly flew out of the steps.
Elder Qin took out a long sword and quickly brandished it. At the tip of the sword, a fiery light appeared, like a meteor streaking across the sky. This was the Meteor Sword Art that Elder Qin practiced.
Clang clang clang!
After a hundred moves, all the wind blades were blocked. Elder Qin was unharmed. He steadily stood on the steps of the Road of Emperor.
Lan Chaofeng said softly, "Good. There are many Blue Robed Emperors who fell at the first stage before even stepping on their Emperor's Road. Elder Qin, to be able to pass the first round unscathed, it seems like your foundation is very solid. "
However, this was only the beginning. There were a thousand steps, and each step was a hurdle, and each step was a tribulation.
First there was wind, then there was fire. Three hundred types of wind, three hundred types of fire. Finally, wind and fire came together. The wind borrowed the power of the fire, and the fire borrowed the power of the wind, burning the heaven and earth cleanly.
The first step, Cold Wind Manifestation!
Just how cold was it? Even the formless wind had turned into sharp "ice arrows" under the freezing temperature. It was evident. Nine hundred "ice arrows" fell like raindrops.
With just one step, Elder Qin's Saint Body had suffered a hundred wounds of different sizes.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen sucked in a breath of cold air. How did the wind blow here? It was so cold that it turned into "ice arrows".
The second step, Fierce Wind Whip!
The whistling wind condensed into long whips, lashing the air with crackling sounds, making one tremble in fear. Xiao Chen's movements were a little slow, and Elder Qin received a vicious slap on his face. The wound was horrifying, making one's hair stand on end.
Even though Xiao Chen's mental fortitude was terrifyingly strong. At this moment, his body was still trembling slightly. Furthermore, he had only taken two steps. Furthermore, this was only the relatively ordinary Great Tribulation of Wind and Fire.
Lan Chaofeng did not find this strange. His expression remained calm as he analyzed calmly, "That's right. Although there are many wounds on Elder Qin, they are not fatal. Passing the Wind Tribulation shouldn't be a problem. "
Every step he took was a calamity. Elder Qin was covered in wounds. He gritted his teeth and walked silently. That kind of perseverance caused those who saw it to be moved and unable to bear it.
Xiao Chen now finally knew why so many people didn't dare to transcend this wind and fire tribulation. It was too difficult, too miserable!
"You must get through it," Xiao Chen murmured in his heart, silently encouraging Elder Qin.
Just at this moment, Xiao Chen and Lan Chaofeng exchanged glances at the same time. The two of them both sensed that someone was currently flying over.
Elder Qin hadn't even taken ten steps before he arrived.
"Let me."
Xiao Chen said faintly before his figure disappeared. In the sky, six thunderbolts fell.
As the lightning illuminated the sky and earth, a blurry white figure could be seen in that instant. It seemed as though he had struck out with his palm towards the void. His movements were so fast that people could only see afterimages. They couldn't be sure.
Hu chi!
The instant the lightning vanished, six figures appeared at the same time. Their complexions were slightly pale, clearly horrified.
They had been forced out of the Void by someone's powerful palm force while they were traveling through it.
"Blue Dragon King, please don't misunderstand. We only sensed some abnormalities in the Spiritual Energy fluctuations and came to take a look. We did not know that the Dragon's Gate's Elder Qin was undergoing his tribulation."
One of the gray-clad old men looked at the white-haired, white-clad Xiao Chen and explained.
Xiao Chen sized up the six. Then, he performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "I won't say anything unnecessary. No matter which faction you come from, leave now. I, Blue Dragon King Xiao Chen, owe you a favor. "
The six people who rushed over were slightly stunned, wondering if they heard wrong.
The Blue Dragon King showed off his sharpness. During the Dragon's Gate's reestablishment ceremony, Emperor Wu had faced off against the Western Sea Dragon King against the thirteen Greater Heavenly Cultivators. However, when facing six Minor Heavenly Cultivators, Emperor Wu was so polite, easily taking a step back and leaving them a favor.
This was simply unbelievable. The six reacted and quickly said, "Blue Dragon King, you are too polite. This is just a small matter. This is not much of a favor. We will just leave. Let's congratulate the Dragon's Gate's Elder in advance for clearing his tribulation."
The six had only rushed over from Heaven Dragon City to see what was going on. They came out of curiosity and had no other purpose. Since Xiao Chen was so polite, naturally, they would give him some face, doing him a favor at little cost.
Xiao Chen said sincerely, "Many thanks."
They came quickly and left quickly as well. The six left in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Chen heaved a sigh of relief. Everything revolved around Elder Qin's tribulation. If he could avoid making a move, he would. That would be for the best.
After that, a few more people came from Heaven Dragon City. However, Xiao Chen persuaded them to leave with kind words.
Right now, Heaven Dragon City was already the center of the Western Sea. Normally, many Emperor Wu's gathered there. It was not strange for them to rush over at this time.
Fortunately, the Blue Dragon King's name still held some prestige. Many Emperor Wu's gave him some face.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen discovered ten red-clad cultivators with strange auras on the surface of the sea. A bad feeling welled up in Xiao Chen's heart. Then, his figure flashed, and he landed in front of the ten.
"Stop. The Dragon's Gate's Elder in front is undergoing his tribulation. Please leave."
The clothes of the ten red-clad people were like blood. There were no decorations or patterns on them. They looked like they were dyed in blood.
Xiao Chen felt extremely uncomfortable looking at them. His Spiritual Sense was very sharp. He could even vaguely sense a sinister resentment from these red-clad people. It was extremely strange.
What was even stranger was that Xiao Chen could not make out the cultivation of these red-clad people, either.
This was an extremely strange thing. With Xiao Chen's current eyesight, even a Prime would be able to sense it. Could these ten people be even stronger than Primes? That was impossible. Xiao Chen could not even sense a Heart of an Emperor from them.
The leader of the Blood-Clad Guards looked like a middle-aged man. He had a pale complexion and an eye-catching black mark on his forehead.
This person completely ignored Xiao Chen's words as he led the others to the small island. Soon, they were less than one hundred meters from Xiao Chen. This was already an extremely dangerous distance.
A murderous intent surged in Xiao Chen's heart. He said indifferently, "I'll say it again. The Dragon's Gate's Elder is undergoing his tribulation. Do not approach this place."
The middle-aged man revealed a cruel smile. "Others treat you as the Blue Dragon King and give you some face. However, in my eyes, you are nothing. If you move aside now, I will not seek trouble for you. If you do not, you will bear the consequences. "
Although the middle-aged man said that, he did not give Xiao Chen a chance to reply at all. After the middle-aged man said the last two words, he charged at Xiao Chen, not caring about the morality of a cultivator at all.
When the middle-aged man threw a palm strike, there was no earth-shaking aura or horrifying Emperor's Might. It was just an ordinary palm strike with only a hazy scarlet light and a dense resentment spreading out in all directions.
Xiao Chen had long been on guard. With his rich combat experience, he would not fluster over such a small trick.
Xiao Chen circulated all the Law Energy in his body. In the time it took for a spark to fly, he sent out a palm strike, accompanied by ear-splitting thunder.
"Boom!" The two palms clashed, and Xiao Chen's body flew back like a cannonball.
As for the middle-aged man, he did not move at all. Such a result was completely unexpected!
Xiao Chen spun around a few times before he managed to dissipate the force of the other party's palm strike. Blood leaked out of a corner of his lips; he had clearly suffered a great loss.
The middle-aged man withdrew his palm and stood upright. Then, he said gently, "The Blue Dragon King is only so-so. I did not even use half of my strength."
Xiao Chen analyzed calmly. That earlier palm strike did not have the support of Primordial Energy. However, its offensive power reached the level of a Second Heaven Emperor Wu. The other party had not used half of his strength yet. In other words, this person possessed the peak strength of a Third Heaven Emperor Wu.
"Whoosh!"
The middle-aged man turned into a beam of scarlet light and arrived in an instant. Then, he launched a lightning-quick attack at Xiao Chen, who had just landed.
A scarlet sword appeared in the middle-aged man's hand. As he swung it, scarlet light shot out in all directions.
The rumbling of water did not stop. That was a sea of blood surging in the air. Its aura was startling, pushing Xiao Chen back step by step. However, there was still no Emperor's Might.
The destructive power of a peak Third Heaven Martial Emperor was the real deal, no exaggeration at all.
Xiao Chen could not help feeling even more astonished. Where did this group of people come from? They did not have Emperor's Might or a Heart of an Emperor, but their destructive power was on par with Emperor Wu's.
He had never seen or heard of such a thing before!
The other party's attacks were too ferocious. Without using his Primordial Energy, Xiao Chen was not a match for them at all. After a hundred moves, Xiao Chen crossed his arms in defense and got kicked away again.
As he retreated, Xiao Chen pushed off the ground with one hand and gently pushed off. He spun three times in the air before standing firm again.
"The ways of the world have changed long ago. Don't think that just because people call you the Blue Dragon King a few times, you can truly be called a king!"
The middle-aged man kicked Xiao Chen away with a strong aura. Half of his strength was enough to force Xiao Chen into such a sorry state. This filled the middle-aged man with confidence. He instructed, "Split into five to deal with Lan Chaofeng. Four to disrupt that old fogey's tribulation. Leave this brat to me."
Xiao Chen wiped off the blood at the corner of his lips and smiled faintly. "Who gave you such strong confidence to deal with me alone? Let me tell you this: none of you can get past me."
The middle-aged man thought that victory was already in his grasp when he could force Xiao Chen into such a sorry state without even using half his strength.
However, from the start to the end, Xiao Chen did not use his Primordial Energy at all. He did not even take out the Lunar Shadow Saber. Half of Xiao Chen's strength was not even half of his. He was far from using it.
The Primordial Energy split into two and chased each other endlessly. The Taiji force field instantly formed.
The Blood-Clad Soldiers, who wanted to get past Xiao Chen, suddenly got pulled back by a suction force.
Within one kilometer, they were all trapped in Xiao Chen's Taiji force field. Even if they wanted to get out, there was no way.
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes as he looked at the middle-aged man in front. "In the end, it is hard for you to use unorthodox methods to reach the upper echelons. There are no shortcuts on the path of cultivation. I'll show you what Emperor Wu's true combat prowess is! "
"Quick! The Blue Dragon Goes to Sea, Clouds Move in All Directions!"
Xiao Chen's figure suddenly moved as fast as lightning. He was like a Blue Dragon leaping out of the sea, displaying a startling aura.
The middle-aged man felt shocked. Before he could react, Xiao Chen had already pressed forward. The middle-aged man had no choice but to make a move to block this palm strike.
The middle-aged man used his full power to throw a palm strike. In terms of aura, it was no weaker than Xiao Chen's. Its destructive power was even more startling.
However, this palm strike only had the form and the aura, but no might. The middle-aged man had not undergone the Great Tribulation of wind and fire. He did not have the Heart of an Emperor or the Emperor's Might. No matter how strong the destructive power of this palm strike was, in a true clash, the middle-aged man would only be at a disadvantage.
