When facing Xiao Chen's attack, everyone felt startled. Clearly, they had not expected Xiao Chen to be so decisive.
Gu Yuhan had just revealed an opening when Xiao Chen caught it and instantly attacked.
"Bang!"
Caught off guard, Gu Yuhan was forced to turn around and receive Xiao Chen's palm strike. The instant the two palms clashed, the two each took one hundred steps back. Gu Yuhan stood firmly and shouted coldly, "This is never-ending!"
Gu Yuhan's aura suddenly soared. He flicked his finger, and a strand of Divine Energy turned into a beam of light and shot out.
The moment Divine Energy appeared, it was truly unrivaled. Xiao Chen pulled on his cloak and executed the Flawless saber Dao. He showed a grave expression as he continuously split this strand of Divine Energy.
Gu Yuhan smiled coldly and spread his arms, slowly vanishing. This time, he did not leave any openings.
Just like that, Gu Yuhan left in pursuit of the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King.
"Bang!"
When the other party completely vanished, Xiao Chen, who had been retreating as he fought, suddenly stood firmly. Then, he merged his Veritable Essence Energy, Vital Qi, and Soul Energy, and threw a ferocious punch.
The beam of light formed by the significantly weakened Divine Energy completely scattered. The shock waves spread out, and everywhere the golden light passed, nothing remained.
Xiao Chen wrapped his cloak around himself again. As he looked at the rainbow bridge in the sky, he revealed an expression of caution and luck.
Fortunately, this one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King suddenly appeared. Otherwise, he might have been forced to leave Paradise.
This Gu Yuhan was truly strong.
In the end, Xiao Chen was not in his peak state. His movements were somewhat restricted. There was already a gap between him and false Emperors in the first place. In such a state, he was even harder to deal with.
The earlier battle could not be described with just the word "dangerous."
That Gu Yuhan was very scheming. He simply did not want to give Xiao Chen a chance to remain in Paradise. If Xiao Chen showed any weakness, Gu Yuhan would definitely kill him.
If Xiao Chen showed any weakness, the other party would ignore everything and continue attacking him. If Xiao Chen did not leave Paradise, the other party would definitely kill him.
Unfortunately, Gu Yuhan could not see through Xiao Chen, unable to calculate how much combat prowess Xiao Chen had.
Gu Yuhan did not dare to take the risk, lest he get severely injured and lose the ability to compete with the other false Emperors.
The other party was tempted by the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King's appearance. However, at the same time, he wanted to use this opportunity to test Xiao Chen.
He purposely pretended to be anxious, turned around, and left, leaving an opening.
If Xiao Chen didn't make a move, then it was certain that Xiao Chen's current fighting spirit was faked.
Then, he would immediately turn around and fight again, forcefully killing Xiao Chen or forcing him out of Paradise.
If Xiao Chen made a move, it would prove that Xiao Chen still had the strength to fight. There was no need to tangle with Xiao Chen any longer. It was more important to quickly subdue the 100,000-year-old Demon King.
However, he had never expected that Xiao Chen's injuries were indeed not light, much more serious than his.
It was just that he had seen through the other party's schemes and was a step ahead of them.
"I need to find a place to recuperate. I finally stabilized my strength as a half-step Sovereign Emperor. I now have a clear understanding of a false Emperor's strength. Once I recover completely and return to my peak, I won't have to fear even a False Emperor. "
In reality, false Emperors were considered half-step Sovereign Emperors, but they were still not Sovereign Emperors.
The difference between a half-step Sovereign Emperor and a false Emperor was not as large as one might imagine. False Emperors had only two advantages. First, they had formed their Divine Seal longer. Second, they had condensed Divine Energy.
However, such Divine Energy was not true Divine Energy. Without the support of Divine Veins, one could not bring out the true might of Divine Energy.
False Emperors were not scary. The scary one was Gu Yuhan.
It was like a half-step Sovereign Emperor. Zhang Yushan was also a half-step Sovereign Emperor. However, he could not last more than ten moves against Xiao Chen, who was of the same cultivation realm.
Cultivation realm was always just one of the factors that measured one's strength; it was not absolute.
This was especially so before the outstanding talents. Unless the difference in cultivation was too great, one could never use one's cultivation to judge one's strength.
However, even if it was Gu Yuhan, Xiao Chen was confident that as long as he entered his peak state, Gu Yuhan would definitely regret leaving. The next time they met, Gu Yuhan would definitely regret leaving this time.
"I won't have a chance to fight for this one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King."
Xiao Chen thought for a while, but he did not show much envy. The ten ten-thousand-year-old Herb Kings that he obtained were all peak-quality.
Furthermore, Xiao Chen had directly consumed and refined all of them, which targeted him. After refining them, he could quickly convert them into his own cultivation.
However, a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King was indeed very rare.
A one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King was nearly the same age as the Faux God World. Furthermore, it was tainted by the Demonic Qi of this place, which made it very ferocious. It would be very difficult for a person to subdue it alone.
Xiao Chen knew where some one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb Kings hid. However, he did not dare to rashly make a move.
"I wonder who will be the one to obtain this one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King in the end. I believe that it will take some time to fight for it."
After Xiao Chen muttered to himself, his figure flashed and he left. After Xiao Chen left, After Xiao Chen left, the Faux Gods outside the Trial Tower no longer paid attention to Xiao Chen. The scenes on the light screens revolved around that one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King.
A one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King was extremely important to these Faux Gods.
Of course, the Faux Gods had to verify the rank of this Spirit Herb first. Otherwise, even a one-hundred-thousand-year-old Spirit Herb would be useless.
At a desolate place in the boundless herb fields in Paradise:
Xiao Chen looked at the sky and entered deep thought. It looks like the outside world can indeed notice everything that happens in here.
Since entering, Xiao Chen felt like something was paying attention to him.
This feeling only truly vanished just now. That sense of discomfort was very obvious.
Combined with the one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King that just appeared, Xiao Chen already determined that this Herb King had to have helped him attract attention.
"I really have to thank this one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King. It has helped me a lot."
Xiao Chen said softly. Then, he said, "I have to absorb all of this Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment first, lest my hands and feet become tied. As long as my meridian injuries recover, they are actually just minor injuries. "
After making up his mind, Xiao Chen sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes, speeding up his absorption of the Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment.
Previously, when Xiao Chen was asleep, he had been passively absorbing the ointment. Hence, the speed was extremely slow. After three days, he had only absorbed a small portion.
However, just this small portion had pulled him back from the gates of hell. This showed how miraculous this Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment was.
Now that Xiao Chen took the initiative to refine it, his absorption speed was incomparable to before.
In merely one hour, Xiao Chen recovered most of the injuries he suffered and the Veritable Essence Energy and Soul Energy that he drained from the fight with Gu Yuhan.
The ointment's effects were startlingly strong, allowing Xiao Chen to focus even more on healing the hidden injuries he suffered from his chaotic Great Dao and unstable Veritable Essence Energy.
Time went by unknowingly. Xiao Chen's body emitted a green light as he anxiously treated his injuries.
While he was anxiously treating his injuries, he did not notice that the strong lifeforce contained in this green light actually caused many lush green grass to grow in this desolate land. Some withered old trees even sprouted.
Two days later, when Xiao Chen opened his eyes again, the scene before him immediately shocked him.
The desolate land that he had purposely chosen, devoid of lifeforce, actually turned into a scene brimming with life. All sorts of flowers and grasses appeared, appearing everywhere.
Unexpectedly, this place turned into a valley filled with life and hundreds of flowers.
"The Primal Chaos Heaven Replenishing Ointment? What kind of ointment did Senior Xi Mu give me?"
Xiao Chen was shocked by the scene before him. He knew that this should be the lingering effects of the ointment as it was being refined.
After two days, Xiao Chen's injuries had already healed completely, no longer showing any signs of relapse.
Xiao Chen had returned to his peak. The more horrifying thing was that he sensed that half of the ointment in the bandages had not been absorbed.
Xiao Chen used only half of the ointment to completely recover his battered body. He felt that it was overkill; the medicinal effects overflowed.
"Now, there is no need for this bandage to remain."
A look of disdain flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes as he naturally showed a tyrannical air. However, just as Xiao Chen was about to tear off the bandages, he stopped.
Why do I need to tear it off?
Although his attire was strange, they didn't seem to recognize him.
Xiao Chen hid his identity very well. This seems pretty good. If Xiao Chen appeared in Paradise, who knew how much trouble there would be?
There were simply too many benefits to hiding his identity.
Since that is the case, there is no need to rush to tear off the bandages. Although my attire looks strange, I have never cared about the opinions of others.
With this thought, Xiao Chen stopped what he was doing and covered himself with the bedsheet again.
"Hey!"
Just at this moment, Xiao Chen let out a soft cry of surprise. He saw a tricolored light quickly flying over to where he was.
It was that one-hundred-thousand-year-old Herb King!
