For now, Xiao Chen did not take inventory of his gains. After the decibels of Senior Ma and the others, he sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes, letting his aura merge with the aura of the dragon city once more.
Xiao Chen's perception was like a spiderweb, quickly spreading out into the dragon city.
The limit kept expanding, even wider than when he used his Spiritual Sense outside.
However, Xiao Chen could not see as clearly as with his Spiritual Sense. He could not see the scene in real time, only vaguely sensing some unique auras.
That's it!
Soon, Xiao Chen sensed an unusual aura. He did not know if it was a natural treasure or a Dragon Race treasure.
Xiao Chen opened his eyes in anticipation, and his figure flashed over.
Sounds of fighting?
Just as Xiao Chen approached, he heard the sounds of fighting and could not help frowning.
Since someone had beaten him to it, he could not help but speed up and rush over.
Xiao Chen happened to see a shocking scene. In front of a cellar:
Someone knocked Meng Zhuang and the other elite cultivators of Senior Ma's team into the air with one saber strike.
They fell to the ground in pain and screamed miserably.
"What happened?"
Xiao Chen asked after he landed and helped Meng Zhuang and the others to their feet.
After all, Meng Zhuang was someone he was familiar with. Xiao Chen could not possibly feign ignorance after seeing him.
There was a horrifying wound on Meng Zhuang's chest. Blood spurted out of the wound uncontrollably.
Xiao Chen looked carefully and discovered a strong saber intent containing the will of soul in the wound.
"Brother Xiao, we clearly discovered the corpse of an ancient mutated beast. However, he snatched it away and even injured us."
Meng Zhuang's eyes flashed with horror as he pointed at the person in front while clutching his wound.
Xiao Chen glanced around. The person in front was the bamboo-hat bladesman who called himself Ananda.
This bladesman wore a conical bamboo hat that covered his face. He wore tight clothes and long robes, making it impossible to make out his figure.
"There is no need to be so heavy-handed when you make a move, right?"
Xiao Chen asked softly.
"He is just asking for it. You can't blame others."
The conical bamboo hat bladesman's voice, which had clearly been altered, rang out. He looked deeply at Xiao Chen through the conical bamboo hat before drifting away.
Xiao Chen did not give chase. There was no need to fight to the death with this bamboo-hat bladesman.
After all, the opponent's strength was there for all to see.
"Let me send you back," Xiao Chen said as he turned around.
Naturally, Meng Zhuang and the others had no complaints. After seeing the strength of this bamboo-hat bladesman, they would not blame Xiao Chen for not making a move.
It was already good enough that he could waste his time and send them back.
Returning to the team's gathering point …
There were quite a number of injured people. He only found out after asking around.
It turned out that the bamboo-hat bladesman had injured them. However, although he was ruthless, he did not kill them.
After Senior Ma asked everyone cautiously, he said, "This Ananda seems to know his limits. After you see him, do not make a move on him."
Those who were injured couldn't stand the fact that their treasures had been stolen, so they attacked out of anger.
There was no case of the bamboo-hat bladesman taking the initiative to attack.
The two teams did not dare to declare war on Ananda, so they could only reduce the problem to a small one.
After resting for two hours, the two teams worked together and headed for the Flame Demon tribe's headquarters at the same time.
In the following eight hours, the two teams worked together to kill the many Flame Demon teams.
The two teams arrived at a vast Dragon Race plaza in the vast ancient dragon city.
The Dragon Race plaza was at least fifty kilometers wide. There was an incredibly mysterious formation in the middle.
A three-hundred-meter-long pillar was stuck in the center of the formation.
The pillar soared into the sky, exuding a strong might and pressure.
It was ancient and experienced the baptism of time, accumulating an incredibly heavy might and pressure.
A clump of ethereal black flame hovered above the pillar, looking exceptionally strange.
Blue Dragon Totem!
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly. He immediately recognized that three-hundred-meter-long pillar as the Blue Dragon Totem.
"Faux God Flame!"
Unlike Xiao Chen, Senior Ma, Senior Liu, Leng Feng, and the others immediately stared at the flame drifting above the pillar.
That black flame seemed to be something between solid and incorporeal. It was like it had a magical power, attracting everyone's attention.
The surroundings fell silent; not even the sound of breathing could be heard. Several people walked towards the Blue Dragon Totem in a daze.
Hallucinations appeared in their eyes. The various desires that they normally hid in the depths of their hearts appeared in their eyes.
Their thoughts ranged from success and fame, to obtaining a powerful cultivation technique, to being conferred a noble title or king …
These people showed strange smiles as they walked forward step by step.
"Stop!"
Senior Ma, who struggled out of the illusion, shouted, his expression changing slightly.
It was like a sudden clap of thunder resounding in the surroundings. Immediately, many people felt their souls suffer a heavy blow, and blood leaked out of a corner of their lips.
These people suddenly startled awake. When they saw their own actions, they were startled and quickly moved back.
However, there were still a few people who were not strong enough. Their desires were too deep, and they could not struggle free.
The moment he stepped onto the mysterious formation, his three souls and seven physical souls were extracted from his body.
It floated towards the black flames and was burned to ashes.
His body was sucked dry by the formation, turning into a pool of blood and disappearing.
As their souls were extracted and their bodies absorbed by the array formation, the black flames on the Blue Dragon Totem seemed to become even more lustrous.
The corpses and souls of these people were treated as delicacies, and he swallowed them whole.
Sou sou sou!
The group of people immediately felt a deep lingering fear, and hurriedly sped up, retreating all the way.
Only after he left the square did he feel slightly at ease.
"How could this be?"
Senior Ma, Senior Liu, and the others turned pale with fright. Their expressions turned grave, but their gazes did not leave the black flames.
Xiao Chen found this strange as well. He had not expected to run into the legendary Faux God Flame here.
After the Cloud Sea Realm was the Divine Vein Realm. After the Divine Vein Realm was the Void God Realm.
The physical body of a Faux God had already become a physical body. All they lacked was an immortal soul to become a True God.
Their lifespan was practically limitless. Their strength had already reached an incredible, heaven-defying level.
Words alone could no longer describe the horror of a Faux God.
Just the Divine Vein Realm was already out of reach for the people here. They needed to raise their heads and look up.
Faux Gods were even more so.
The so-called Faux God Flame was a special existence.
If one wanted to advance from the Divine Vein Realm to the Faux God Realm, one had to light a divine flame in their body. This flame was the Faux God Flame.
These people did not know how to light a divine flame.
However, the importance of the Faux God Flame was like that of a Nascent Soul to a True Cultivator. If the Nascent Soul was extinguished, the True Cultivator would die for sure.
If the divine flame was extinguished, the so-called undying Faux Gods would disappear from this world.
"I really did not expect there to be a Yang flame where the Flame Demon tribes gathered. Who could have expected it to be the legendary Faux God Flame? This is incredible … "
"However, this Faux God Flame is almost extinguished. It can't even send out its Divine Might."
"There is something wrong with this Faux God Flame. It seems to have a demonic nature. I suspect that those Flame Devil tribes are actually all under its control. "
Senior Ma and the others discussed cautiously. As they looked at the Faux God Flame, greed flashed in their eyes.
Everyone wanted to obtain the Faux God Flame. However, they did not dare to act rashly, afraid of losing their lives.
Xiao Chen squatted down and reached out to touch the floor of the plaza. His expression turned grave.
Indeed, as Xiao Chen expected, there was something wrong with this place. There was an even larger formation under the plaza.
The blood of the people who died in the city earlier eventually flowed to the mysterious formation in the center of the plaza.
Xiao Chen stood up and asked Senior Liu, "How did you discover the underground dragon city?"
Senior Liu did not like Xiao Chen. He retorted coldly, "What does it have to do with you? The upper echelons are discussing. It is not your place to interrupt."
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. "Even if you don't tell me, I know. Did you discover azure-colored Dragon Qi on the surface? Did you send people to search and find the entrance?"
Senior Liu's expression changed slightly, clearly finding this strange. Xiao Chen was clearly asking how Xiao Chen knew.
"Xiao Chen, Senior Liu and I still have important matters to discuss. Rest at the side first and await further instructions."
Senior Ma frowned slightly. He was not willing to see Xiao Chen, so he waved his hand and sent Xiao Chen away.
Xiao Chen did not say anything. He smiled coldly in his heart and moved to the side.
"How dare you barge into the Holy Land? All of you deserve death!"
Just at this moment, a majestic figure descended from the sky and landed heavily on the plaza.
This figure had pitch-black skin and wore ancient black armor with dragon motifs. He held a spear in his hand and radiated a terrifying Dragon Might.
The spear swept through the air, and the entire plaza suddenly lit up with a loud boom.
Clumps of flames soared up from the countless stone pillars in the Dragon Race plaza spanning fifty kilometers.
Each clump of flame was a red Flame Demon.
This seemingly empty plaza was, in fact, the lair of the Flame Demon tribes.
The expressions of Senior Ma and the others immediately changed. The number of Flame Demons exceeded their expectations.
