After Liu Ruyue left, only Xiao Chen and Lu Benwei remained in Fiend Cloud Hall.
Looking at Liu Ruyue's back, Xiao Chen entered deep thought. He was in a rush to tell Liu Ruyue the truth.
However, he warned himself over and over again that he was not strong enough. If he said it out loud, he would die early.
The person he loved the most was right in front of him, but he had to pretend to be a stranger. Only Xiao Chen himself could understand the bitterness within.
"Brother Xiao Chen, this blade technique of yours is truly refreshing. However, the flaws are also obvious," Lu Benwei said with a smile.
Every Saber Technique had its flaws. There was no perfect Martial Technique or Cultivation Technique in the world. Xiao Chen naturally understood this principle.
He did not get angry. Instead, he said politely, "Senior Brother, please guide me."
"No problem."
After some pointers, Xiao Chen was shocked to discover that the seemingly unremarkable Lu Benwei's skills with the saber were actually so exquisite.
Not only did his cultivation surpass Xiao Chen's, but his understanding of Saber Techniques also shocked Xiao Chen.
Xi Mu was far from as simple as Xiao Chen thought. If it were Xi Mu, he would be an existence that others could only look up to, only watch from afar and not talk about in detail.
Lu Benwei was perfect. He could discuss with Xiao Chen in detail, and they complemented each other.
"Thank you, Big Brother Lu. I really benefited a lot."
Xiao Chen cupped his hands and thanked him sincerely.
Lu Benwei smiled and nodded. "You're too polite. Remember to come again tomorrow. Although Master didn't accept you as a disciple, You should know what this means, right? "
"I understand," Xiao Chen said softly.
This meant that Xi Mu only could not get over the hurdle in his heart. Although he felt apologetic, he truly cherished Xiao Chen's talent and did not want him to be buried.
The next day, Xiao Chen arrived at Fiend Cloud Hall on time. Then, he sat beside Lu Benwei and listened to Xi Mu's teachings.
After Xi Mu left, Xiao Chen started exchanging moves with Liu Ruyue. The two did not say anything.
However, the tacit understanding between them didn't require too many words. Both of them could feel a strange feeling flowing in their hearts.
Not only did their strengths improve significantly, but Liu Ruyue found this feeling strange. However, she did not want to embarrass herself by asking Xiao Chen about it.
Xiao Chen was well aware of this, but he was unwilling to take the initiative to explain.
Time flew by like water. In the blink of an eye, five years had passed.
In the past five years, the two of them had not spoken more than three sentences.
Liu Ruyue gradually felt that the tacit understanding between the two of them had reached an incredible level. She felt that it was strange. But every time she saw Xiao Chen's calm expression, as if he was unwilling to say anything.
She was a little angry and recalled that he had once said that he already had someone he loved the most. His heart, which had been slightly moved, gradually cooled down and calmed down.
Five years!
Just like that, Xiao Chen stayed in Fiend Cloud Hall, listening to Senior Xi Mu's teachings for five years. Lu Benwei even asked questions on his behalf, indirectly receiving countless pointers.
Although they were not master and disciple in name, they were already master and disciple in reality.
Five years. He had spent five years to complete his Saber Dao. He relied on the Ice Fire Divine Origin to raise his Ice Great Dao to the Ice Dao Domain.
Two years ago, Xiao Chen grasped three Dao Domains. However, he did not rush to form a Divine Seal to advance to half-step Sovereign Emperor.
This was because Lu Benwei said that Xiao Chen had not merged his three Dao Domains. If he forcefully formed a Divine Seal, it would result in an imperfect Divine Seal.
Furthermore, this Divine Seal was the crux of forming a divine flame. If he rashly formed a Divine Seal, it would result in an imperfect Divine Seal.
Xiao Chen's strength would soar rapidly. He might be happy for a while, but it would be over when he reached the Faux God Realm.
Following Lu Benwei's advice, Xiao Chen did not form a Divine Seal for the past two years, waiting for an opportunity.
Counting the time, he had already been in the Faux God Realm for seven years.
More than half of the ten years had already passed.
During the five years in Fiend Cloud Hall, aside from cultivating on the mountain, Xiao Chen would challenge the Trial Tower if Senior Xi Mu did not speak about the Dao.
Right now, Xiao Chen no longer cared about breaking records. He only challenged the Trial Tower to test what he learned in the mountain.
Although Xiao Chen did not have any intention of breaking records, he had already broken many records along the way.
Now, two people's names were the most eye-catching on the Glory Stele in front of the Trial Tower.
One was Chu Chaoyun, and the other was the Heavenly Alliance's Xiao Chen.
However, Xiao Chen heard that Chu Chaoyun had already advanced to Sovereign Emperor and left. Xiao Chen did not get a chance to meet him.
On this particular day, Senior Xi Mu finished his lecture in Fiend Cloud Hall.
As per usual, Xiao Chen and Liu Ruyue started exchanging moves. The two had interacted day and night for the past five years and already had a tacit understanding with each other.
Without saying anything, they both made their moves and started exchanging moves in Fiend Cloud Hall.
At the side, Zhang Yushan and the other two showed helplessness in their eyes. This was especially so for Zhang Yushan, who felt rage in his helplessness.
Back then, Zhang Yushan had endured three months in the Thunder Saber Domain after much difficulty. Unexpectedly, he had to meet Xiao Chen again for a few years.
What Zhang Yushan found even more unacceptable was that his First Senior Brother always sent him to exchange moves with Liu Ruyue. Now, it was Xiao Chen.
After some negotiation, Zhang Yushan wanted to send Xiao Chen away. However, when he learned that his First Senior Brother would teach him a lesson, he could not accept it.
After making a fool of himself in front of everyone, he could only watch Xiao Chen exchange moves with Liu Ruyue.
However, Zhang Yushan could not do anything about it and could only watch helplessly.
If not for wanting to listen to Xi Mu's lecture for the past five years, Zhang Yushan would have left long ago.
When he saw Xi Mu every day, he felt frustrated and frustrated.
After watching for a while, Zhang Yushan took the lead to leave with a cold expression. Soon, only Xiao Chen, Liu Ruyue, and Lu Benwei remained.
After exchanging moves, Liu Ruyue surprisingly did not turn around and leave. She looked at Xiao Chen and said, "You should be about to form your Divine Seal, right?"
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "If I want to, I can form my Divine Seal at any time."
"In that case, quickly form your Divine Seal. The Trial Tower's eighty-first floor will open in three days. At that time, the people of the five super factions will participate. If you do not have the strength of a half-step Sovereign Emperor, you will be at a disadvantage. "
When Xiao Chen heard that, he felt it was strange. He knew that the Trial Tower's eighty-first floor was open.
He was also prepared to form his Divine Seal within these three days and advance to half-step Sovereign Emperor.
In reality, if he had only merged his Thunder Dao Domain with his soul five years ago, he would have been able to form his Divine Seal.
However, he waited for three years to form his third Dao Domain. After that, he waited for two years to form his perfect Divine Seal.
Now, as long as Xiao Chen wanted to, he could form his Divine Seal easily. He would not even need fifteen minutes.
Xiao Chen's accumulations were already extremely horrifying. He could form his Divine Seal with one Dao Domain in the Faux God World. Only outstanding talents dared to condense a Divine Seal with two Dao Domains. Those who condensed three Dao Domains like Xiao Chen were few and far between.
Hence, Xiao Chen felt that Liu Ruyue's words were superfluous. What exactly was she trying to say?
When Liu Ruyue heard that, she said, "Since you said that you can form your Divine Seal at any time, then do it now. I'll watch from here."
Xiao Chen immediately revealed a strange expression as he looked at Lu Benwei. Lu Benwei waved his hand, not understanding what Xiao Chen meant.
"What's wrong? Are you lying to me again?"
Bitterness flashed on Liu Ruyue's face. Clearly, she still felt conflicted about Xiao Chen lying to her five years ago.
When Xiao Chen saw Liu Ruyue like this, he could no longer hide his usual cool and indifferent expression.
Xiao Chen's eyes turned somewhat moist as he smiled bitterly. However, this smile eventually turned into lofty sentiments. He said seriously, "Why would I lie to you? I said that I can break through at any time, so I can do so at any time!"
Right after Xiao Chen spoke, three different lights flowed around his body.
One was purple, representing the Thunder Dao Domain. One was white, representing the Ice Dao Domain. The last one was the most dazzling, representing Xiao Chen's Flawless Dao Domain.
With just a thought, the three Dao Domains entered Xiao Chen's forehead and entered his Soul Pool, merging with the azure-colored dragon seal that represented his soul.
There were no obstructions. Everything happened naturally. The Dao Domains merged with his soul, continuously changing.
When the changes stopped, a golden dragon seal appeared like it was alive. It contained a supreme Dragon Might and the sharpness of a saber. It was accompanied by lightning and snow in his Soul Pool.
A perfect Divine Seal!
The three mysterious phenomena perfectly merged with Xiao Chen's soul, appearing in his Soul Pool. This golden dragon seal was a perfect Divine Seal.
"Boom!" A soaring saber intent erupted from Xiao Chen's body, illuminating the entire Fiend Cloud Hall.
The mysterious phenomena in Xiao Chen's Soul Pool appeared, encasing the entire Fiend Cloud Hall.
Zhang Yushan and the others, who were halfway down the mountain, looked up and saw this mysterious phenomenon. Their expressions changed drastically. "Three mysterious phenomena! Three mysterious phenomena! This fellow really condensed a perfect mysterious phenomenon!"
Up in Fiend Cloud Hall, Xiao Chen withdrew the various mysterious phenomena back into his body with a thought.
In just an instant, Xiao Chen underwent a rebirth, condensed his Divine Seal, and advanced to half-step Sovereign Emperor. His strength reached a horrifying level.
It looked like success came naturally. However, only Lu Benwei, who accompanied Xiao Chen, knew the loneliness and accumulation he had to endure.
For this moment, Xiao Chen had put in seven years of hard work.
"Very good."
The hidden bitterness on Liu Ruyue's face vanished, and she smiled. This was the first time she smiled before Xiao Chen in five years.
This smile distracted Xiao Chen somewhat. When he startled to his senses, he only saw Liu Ruyue's back.
Lu Benwei was about to congratulate Xiao Chen when he suddenly slapped himself on the head. "Aiya, I got confused. Today is the day Junior Sister Ruyue leaves the Faux God World. Her ten-year period is up."
