Xiao Chen now understood. The gap between him and Emperor Forsaken was not in cultivation but in accumulations.
The other party's cultivation of the power of faith and the will of holy light had already reached the limits. Every aspect had reached a level where they could no longer be improved.
As for Xiao Chen's state of cycle and Great Dao Energy, he only scratched the surface.
The might of his Primordial Energy could not compare to the other party's power of faith and the will of holy light.
"You understand now, right? The gap between you and Emperor Forsaken is not large. Defeating him is not difficult. However, do not make him your target. Your target should be set further. "
When Ying Zongtian saw the expression on Xiao Chen's face, he revealed a smile, knowing that Xiao Chen already understood.
Actually, even if Xiao Chen knew, it would not solve much of the problem. The main thing was not to leave a shadow in Xiao Chen's heart. If a shadow was left behind and became a knot in Xiao Chen's heart, then it would truly be over.
Ying Zongtian smiled and said, "During this period, I will remain on this mountain. If you have anything you do not understand, you can ask me for guidance at any time."
Xiao Chen performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "Many thanks, Big Brother."
"You are welcome."
Ying Zongtian smiled faintly. Then, his figure flashed, vanishing from where he was.
After understanding the problem, Xiao Chen now had a direction to work on. Great Dao Energy and the state of cycle were rather difficult to improve.
Hence, Xiao Chen had to focus on other aspects that were easier to cultivate. Then, he would cultivate them to the peak. That way, he would be able to increase the might of his Primordial Energy as well.
With the help of the Thunder Immortal Ancestor, the Innate Thunder Crystal had already reached its peak. Xiao Chen even comprehended the Thunder Domain. Raising it further would be very difficult.
Only the will of ice remained at Small Perfection, with a lot of room for improvement.
Xiao Chen entered the Saber Sovereign Medallion and did his best to cultivate on the Ice Jade Bed in Pan Huang Hall.
This Ice Jade Bed had the same effect as the Lightning Pool, allowing one to quickly cultivate a certain will.
Similarly, the pain of the cold was no less than the Lightning Pool.
Boundless cold energy from the Ice Jade Bed seeped into Xiao Chen's body. The will of ice in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness greedily absorbed this energy, quickly strengthening itself.
Xiao Chen's body shivered from the cold. He felt like his bones were completely frozen. For the first time, he lasted for half a day before he stopped.
However, the second time, Xiao Chen persisted for a week. By the time he came out, he had already become a popsicle.
Kacha!
The instant he shattered the ice, his bones made cracking sounds, almost shattering. That feeling was like being bitten by ten thousand insects. After tasting it once, he did not want to try it a second time.
However, Xiao Chen still had to continue. He had only cultivated the will of ice to Great Perfection, not even to peak Consummation. He was still far from cultivating the Innate Lightning Crystal, so he could not afford to give up on it.
Just like that, Xiao Chen persisted in cultivating in the Saber Sovereign Medallion for two months. When he came out, he had finally cultivated the will of ice to peak Consummation.
Just like that, Xiao Chen persisted in cultivating in the Saber Sovereign Medallion for two months. When he came out, he had finally cultivated the will of ice to peak Consummation. With a casual wave, the cold Qi merged with the Primordial Energy and shot into the air.
Space immediately froze. In the next moment, it shattered into countless pieces.
"Not bad. You comprehended it rather quickly. The destructive power of your Primordial Energy has improved by ten percent compared to two months ago." Ying Zongtian seemed to have been there all along. When he saw Xiao Chen open his eyes, he immediately came out.
Ten percent!
With his cultivation at a standstill, Xiao Chen was able to raise the might of his Primordial Energy by ten percent in two months. This far surpassed Xiao Chen's expectations.
Xiao Chen stood up and looked at Ying Zongtian. A fighting spirit appeared in his eyes. "Big Brother, I would like to seek advice from you."
"Haha! I have been waiting for you to say that for a long time."
Ying Zongtian's fighting spirit blazed as well. He laughed boldly and said, "Remember to use your full power and not hold back. I will definitely not hold back."
"Of course."
When facing Ying Zongtian, Xiao Chen had no choice but to use his full power. Otherwise, he might end up getting beaten up.
"Whoosh!"
A light flashed, and Xiao Chen made the first move. Great Dao Energy, Innate Thunder Crystal, will of ice, and the state of cycle infused his Primordial Energy at the same time.
Xiao Chen casually threw a palm strike.
Ying Zongtian smiled faintly, and the light of the sun burst forth behind him as he countered with a palm strike as well.
"Boom!" The two palms clashed. The two's clothes fluttered wildly, and their long hair fluttered. Unexpectedly, they were evenly matched.
The power of this palm strike swept away all the clouds in the sky. When one looked up, one could see the starry sky. "Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
The two quickly exchanged moves, flying higher and higher. Soon, they broke through the barrier of the sky and arrived among the stars in the universe.
After one hundred moves, the two each stood on an asteroid and faced each other from a distance.
"Big Brother, this is the end of the probing. Receive my saber strike! Void Breaking Stance!"
The Seven Deadly Sins merged into one. As Xiao Chen held his Divine Weapon, he instantly executed the first move of the Flawless Saber Technique.
A light flashed in the Starry Heavens, and Xiao Chen vanished. In the next moment, light burst forth.
A saber light appeared in front of Ying Zongtian. Ying Zongtian smiled faintly, and a beam of light shot out from his palm. Then, a sun appeared.
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Chen charged forward.
"Boom!"
This palm strike directly knocked back the Void Breaking Stance in the Starry Heavens.
Xiao Chen spun in the air and swung his saber in a reverse grip, executing the Flawless Saber Technique's second move, the Dragon Subduing Stance.
Saber light flashed as the Flawless Saber Technique executed consecutively. When Ying Zongtian received the fifth move, he found it somewhat difficult.
"Receive my palm strike as well! Light of the Sun!"
Ying Zongtian switched from defense to offense. He sent out a palm strike, and his body released a light comparable to the sun, looking incredibly dazzling in the Starry Heavens.
Fireballs as bright as the sun flew out of Ying Zongtian's palm, surging towards Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen's heart sank. He had seen Ying Zongtian use this move on the Heaven Punishing Corpse God before. It was incredibly horrifying, one of Ying Zongtian's killing moves.
"Flawless Saber Technique, Heaven Swallowing Stance!"
Xiao Chen executed the strongest move of the Flawless Saber Technique. As he held Gluttony, he materialized the Flawless Saber Technique's ultimate Dao, Death.
The fusion of Gluttony and the Death Throne represented the end and silence. This was especially so for the materialized Heaven Swallowing Stance, which could swallow up all Martial Techniques.
When the saber light landed, a huge void beast appeared behind Xiao Chen. Then, it opened its mouth and swallowed up all the suns. "Buzz! Buzz!
Buzz! "
The saber trembled continuously. The energy of the thousand suns made the Heaven Swallowing Stance hard to digest. Xiao Chen found it hard to keep his grip on the saber; it looked like it would crumble at any moment.
"Whoosh!" A light flashed, and Ying Zongtian appeared before Xiao Chen. Then, he threw a palm strike and knocked away the Divine Weapon in Xiao Chen's hand.
A huge explosion rang out as a thousand suns exploded in the starry sky, blasting a small star into nothingness.
"You lost."
Ying Zongtian smiled faintly and stopped moving, no longer attacking.
This battle had been very enjoyable. However, in the end, Xiao Chen had indeed lost. Xiao Chen's Primordial Energy was already no weaker than Ying Zongtian's. However, he could not maintain it for long.
First, he drained his Great Dao Energy, then his state of cycle. Only the Innate Thunder Crystal and the will of ice remained to support his Primordial Energy.
With such energy, when Xiao Chen executed the final move of the Flawless Saber Technique, he could not break Ying Zongtian's Light of the Sun.
If not for Ying Zongtian reacting quickly and knocking away the Divine Weapon, Xiao Chen would have been injured by the explosion.
"Although I lost this battle, I benefited greatly. Big Brother Ying, many thanks," Xiao Chen said sincerely.
Ying Zongtian smiled faintly and said, "We are family. There is no need to be so polite."
When the two returned to Heavenly Star Island, they discovered that Mo Chen had already been waiting for them at the summit of the Dragon's Gate.
"Mo Chen, you waited for me for so long. Is something the matter?" Xiao Chen asked.
Mo Chen smiled faintly and said, "I still remember what Big Brother Xiao said the last time. In the past few days, I searched through ancient texts and visited many Holy Lands to borrow information. Finally, I know what can eliminate the sin in Meteor Trail City."
"What is it?" Xiao Chen asked quickly, rejoicing in his heart.
When Ying Zongtian heard that, he felt excited as well. He smiled and said, "Miss Mo, you are truly incredible. Even I am helpless against such a difficult problem."
Mo Chen smiled humbly and said, "There is a kind of flame in the world that can burn everything, even sin."
"Are you talking about the Heavenly Flame?" Ying Zongtian asked.
Mo Chen nodded and said, "Yes, it is. However, this Heavenly Flame has not appeared for ten thousand years already. I do not know where to find it."
Ying Zongtian frowned and said, "This is difficult. The Heavenly Flame disappeared long ago. No one knows where it is."
"I know."
Xiao Chen revealed a complicated expression. The moment he said that, Mo Chen and Ying Zongtian felt shocked.
