With a smile on his face, Xiao Chen left the Third Palace Master's Secret Realm.
It had to be said that the secret realm was a huge treasure trove. The foundation of the Heaven Dragon Palace was still very impressive.
Unfortunately, he only managed to obtain a Nine Heavens Mysterious Ice Fruit.
However, if these words were heard by the Third Palace Master, he would definitely reprimand him.
After returning to Cold Moon Cave, Xiao Chen began to prepare for his closed-door training. Right now, he did not lack resources, comprehension, and accumulation.
He needed to go into seclusion and consolidate his foundation, turning all of this into actual combat power in preparation for the competition between the seven palaces.
Not only did Xiao Chen want to enter Ancestor Dragon City, but he also wanted to enter with the best ranking.
Xiao Chen started with the Holy Venerate Will. The Second Palace Master said that if one understood one method, one would understand all methods. Hence, he did not teach Xiao Chen the attacking methods of the Holy Venerate Will.
The logic was the same. There wasn't much of a gap between defense and attack.
Since he could use the light of the sun and the moon to defend himself, he could definitely use the blazing sun and the luminous moon to attack as well.
For example, a scorching sun or a luminous moon could fall to the ground and form a soul power shockwave.
Or the sun and moon could fuse, and then the light of the sun and moon would explode.
Actually, the various methods and the technique of infusing the light of the sun and the moon into one's body were all the same. There was nothing too difficult to understand.
Xiao Chen gave it a try. After half a month, he finally managed to switch the Sun and Moon Shining Together mysterious phenomenon between offense and defense as he pleased.
At the same time, Xiao Chen was more concerned about the Second Palace Master's method of guiding soul power.
Xiao Chen did his best to recall the feeling of controlling Soul Power when the Second Palace Master's finger touched his forehead.
His current soul power was actually higher than his cultivation.
Xiao Chen's cultivation was only at early-stage Holy Venerate. However, with the help of the divine characters, his Soul Energy already reached peak Holy Venerate.
The Sun and Moon Shining Together mysterious phenomenon could be directly manifested. If used well, it could catch the opponent off guard.
After Xiao Chen stopped cultivating his Holy Venerate Will for a while, it was time to solidify Firmament's Rage.
The First Palace Master's Firmament's Rage made Xiao Chen's eyes light up, fresh in his memory.
Although he could successfully use it now, it wasn't very smooth, and the success rate wasn't high.
Not only did it require a change in technique, but it also required a change in mentality.
It wasn't something that could be achieved in a day or two. It required a long period of hard work.
After cultivating for half a month, Xiao Chen felt that there was no obvious room for improvement, so he stopped and began cultivating.
Physical body, Divine Dragon Body Tempering Art!
Relying on the Third Palace Master's resources, it would be inexcusable if he did not make a breakthrough.
Day after day, in the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen had already been in seclusion for four months.
In the Cold Moon Cave, the white-robed youth continued to cultivate. Sometimes, he frowned, sometimes he was puzzled, and sometimes he was doubtful. Occasionally, his brows would relax and he would reveal a knowing smile. That was the sincere happiness he felt after a difficult problem was solved.
The path of a martial artist had always been like this. There were no shortcuts. On the road to success, those who stood at the peak would always be those who knew how to persevere. No one could casually make progress.
"Explode!"
In the Cold Moon Cave's Combat Training Room, Xiao Chen tried his best to throw a punch.
The towering Dragon Pattern Cauldron rang out a hundred times. The sound was ear-splitting, like the roar of a dragon or the roar of thunder, reverberating endlessly.
One hundred Cauldron Force!
After four months of bitter cultivation and the aid of many resources, Xiao Chen's Vital Qi finally reached a horrifying one hundred Cauldron Force.
"Divine Dragon War Body!"
With another shout, Xiao Chen's physical body swelled up, reaching two meters tall, becoming like a small giant.
The muscles all over Xiao Chen's body bulged, filled with explosive energy. The Divine Dragon's Dragon Might lingered, looking solid as it wandered around his body, turning into strands of azure-colored Dragon Qi.
Xiao Chen's eyes filled with pressure. Even if he faced the power of a Sovereign Personage, he would not shrink back in fear.
In the ancient city, Xiao Chen could barely hold his own against an Initial Perfection Sovereign Personage. At best, he would not lose.
Now, Xiao Chen, who had strengthened and consolidated his strength in every aspect, could hold his own against a Sovereign Personage. It might even be possible for him to defeat one.
Furthermore, this was without using Soul Tools or trump cards like the Demonic Cloud Heaven Swallowing Art.
Xiao Chen gently snapped his fingers, and combat puppets immediately leaped out of the cultivation room.
Xiao Chen had requested these from the Blood Dragon Guards' Vice Hall Master Li. The Blood Dragon Guards normally used these combat puppets for combat training.
Every one of these combat puppets was at least an early-stage Holy Venerate. Compared to real cultivators, they lacked some flexibility and intelligence.
These combat puppets still possessed the offense and defense of a Holy Venerate.
"Firmament's Rage!"
Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed. His fingers curled, and his palm turned into a claw as he pressed it against the combat puppet's head.
Immediately, boundless saber Qi and thousands of lightning bolts encased this combat puppet.
With a thought, the puppet gave off a crunching sound as the saber Qi tore it into thousands of pieces. Each piece flickered with crackling electricity.
"Bang!"
Xiao Chen threw another palm strike, still using Firmament's Rage. However, this time, he did not turn it into a claw. Instead, he threw this palm strike. The lightning infused with saber intent turned into a lightning saber Qi storm, howling.
The ten-odd combat puppets in front all got blasted away, their bodies riddled with holes.
"Pa!"
This time, Xiao Chen turned his palm strike into a palm strike. When the palm strike landed, a huge palm imprint appeared on the ground. All the damaged combat puppets shattered into pieces, destroyed.
A sense of danger came from behind. Xiao Chen turned into lightning, and his figure flashed.
This was the last combat puppet left. This combat puppet was stronger than the others, reaching the peak of the Holy Venerate level.
Xiao Chen had just landed when this combat puppet quickly followed and punched. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! "
After exchanging three punches, Xiao Chen moved back ten steps, his aura forcibly suppressed.
The Veritable Essence Energy of a peak Holy Venerate was extremely strong. Right now, as a middle-stage Holy Venerate, Xiao Chen was not a match for it.
"Blood Dragon Chop!"
After gaining the upper hand, the combat puppet showed no mercy. Scarlet flames burned all over its body, and a scarlet dragon coiled around its arm. Then, it punched with great might.
"Firmament's Rage!"
When Xiao Chen executed Firmament's Rage, he turned his palm strike into a fist. He tightly grasped the Thunder Great Dao, the horrifying Saber Great Dao, and the mysteries of the Great Desolate Eon Ancestor Dragon.
"Boom!"
The two fists clashed. This time, it was the combat puppet that got knocked back by Xiao Chen. However, he did not move at all.
A terrifying might erupted from Xiao Chen's body. He exuded might without showing rage, shaking the sky with one punch.
"Divine Dragon War Body!"
Xiao Chen's body swelled up, and his Vital Qi surged. Then, he roared and charged over.
Xiao Chen punched ten times in a row. Each punch contained one hundred Cauldron Force. After the ten punches, the combat puppet's arm shattered.
Cracks appeared in half of its body.
Xiao Chen raised his leg and kicked heavily. The late-stage Holy Venerate combat puppet directly exploded, and its core crystal rolled on the ground.
After stretching his body, Xiao Chen felt somewhat relaxed. However, he did not feel satisfied.
After all, a combat puppet was just a combat puppet. It was still much weaker than a true cultivator.
It could only be used to familiarize oneself with Martial Techniques and Movement Techniques during training. It could not be used as a reference for one's strength.
If one treated a cultivator as a combat puppet in actual combat, one might not even know how they died. ---
Four months passed in the blink of an eye. The competition between the seven outer palaces drew closer.
However, Xiao Chen did not feel much about it. After four months of closed-door cultivation, his originally somewhat restless heart calmed down.
This was especially so after practicing Firmament's Rage. Xiao Chen's mental state had improved significantly between anger and calmness.
Xiao Chen picked up the combat puppet's core crystal on the ground. At the same time, he pondered.
How should I use the remaining time?
There were still two more months. Even if there were fortuitous encounters before me, I would not be able to truly digest them.
Should I go to the Blue Dragon Palace, the Red Dragon Palace, and the White Dragon Palace to look for Murong Yan, Situ Changfeng, and the others? At the same time, I can understand the strength of the experts of the other outer palaces.
After thinking about it, Xiao Chen gave up on this idea. The other outer palaces discriminated against mixed-blood dragons.
If Xiao Chen went over, he could not guarantee that he would not run into trouble like the White Dragon Palace.
Heaven-class core disciples, quickly gather at the Profound Dragon Platform on the Heaven Dragon Peak!
Just at this moment, a message came from Xiao Chen's identity token. It was Elder Tian Yun's voice.
Why are the heaven-class core disciples gathering at this moment?
There are only two or three heaven-class core disciples in the Heaven Dragon Palace. Is there a need to gather?
Xiao Chen did not feel like going. He did not like Elder Tian Yun, either.
However, Xiao Chen was wrong about this.
There were more than three heaven-class core disciples in the Heaven Dragon Palace. It was just that those who could climb to the top of the Heaven Dragon Peak had all gone out on experiential training.
The remaining three happened to be the weakest. They had not been able to climb to the top of the Heaven Dragon Peak.
Xiao Chen had something important to discuss at this gathering.
After collecting the core crystals on the ground, Xiao Chen prepared to go to the Blood Dragon Guards and meet with Vice Hall Master Li.
The two got along well. Xiao Chen found it interesting to hear about the Blood Dragon Guards.
"Senior Brother Xiao, this junior brother was about to disturb you. Unexpectedly, Senior Brother came out on your own."
Just as Xiao Chen left Cold Moon Cave, he saw an outer palace disciple stop him and say respectfully,
"What's the matter?"
"Elder Tian Yun was afraid that Senior Brother Xiao did not receive the message to gather at the Profound Dragon Platform, so he sent a disciple to inform you."
Xiao Chen had no choice but to go.
