"Thunder Mark Grass, Thunder Spirit Blood Ganoderma, Demonic Cloud Flower, Black Thunder Fruit …"
Xiao Chen took out the other demonic fruits mentioned on the black mountain from his storage ring. These demonic fruits could not increase one's cultivation. Hence, he did not refine them that day. However, they were very valuable, so he kept them when he saw them.
Every one of them contained pure Thunder Great Dao Energy. However, they were all tainted with a demonic nature.
To Demonic Dao cultivators, they were supreme treasures with boundless value.
Righteous Dao cultivators needed Lunar Water to wash away the demonic nature before they could refine them.
As for Xiao Chen, he did not have to worry too much. He directly consumed the natural treasures that no one cared about on the black mountain.
If other Demonic Dao cultivators were here, they would definitely exclaim in shock. This was too wasteful.
Naturally, these incredibly precious herbs had to be refined into Heavenly Pills to ensure that their medicinal properties would not scatter.
However, Xiao Chen did not have any worries, as these things cost nothing to him.
After Xiao Chen consumed the many demonic nature pills, his entire body erupted with black lightning-fire. The aura of the Thunder Great Dao in his body continuously soared, and he slowly broke through to the fourth layer of the Thunder Dao Domain.
Right now, the Thunder Dao was Xiao Chen's strongest and most powerful foundation.
He wanted to advance it to the next layer and see if his Thunder Dao Domain could break through to the fifth layer. At that time, with the support of the Alloy Dragon Armor, it would be even more horrifying.
Seven days later, Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and electric light flickered in them. His entire body radiated a terrifying Thunder Dao Might.
"Unfortunately, I am still a little short. However, I managed to solidify my Thunder Dao Domain to the peak of the fourth layer. All I need is an opportunity to break through. "
After spitting out a mouthful of turbid Qi, Xiao Chen muttered to himself, "I should try it out next. Just how powerful was his Pinnacle Lightning Dao?
The secret realm was a small world.
Even if he caused a commotion here, there would not be any commotion in the outside world.
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen stood up, and his figure flashed. Then, he arrived at the center of this small world, a vast and boundless land with undulating desolate mountains.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" An electric dragon image came out of the black gloves on Xiao Chen's hands. It circled around Xiao Chen's arm and spread to his whole body. Then, the two dragons merged.
Purple dragon patterns appeared on his silver armor, and a pendant made of a reverse dragon scale hung between his eyebrows. Xiao Chen's entire aura changed.
It was the Alloy Dragon Armor that belonged solely to Xiao Chen!
With a thought, his peak fourth-layer Thunder Dao Domain appeared. A horrifying Dao Might filled the sky with thunderclouds.
Break!
Dragon patterns flickered on the armor. The dragon soul contained in the armor activated the formations in it, bringing out a peak fourth-layer Dao Domain. Suddenly, it rose another level, reaching the peak of the fifth level.
Ice Dao Domain!
Xiao Chen shouted, and his second-layer Ice Dao Domain appeared. Immediately, heavy snow flew, and cold winds blew endlessly.
The might of the Way rose again, reaching the sixth layer.
Saber Dao Domain!
Boom!
The three Dao Domains layered over each other. Xiao Chen was like a powerful treasure saber standing in the world. The Dao Might emanating from his body broke through layer by layer. Seventh Layer, Eighth Layer, Ninth Layer!
The might of the Dao reached the ninth layer.
"Still not enough!"
"Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning, appear!"
The Blue Dragon Divine Seal shone brightly in Xiao Chen's Soul Pool. Undercurrents immediately surged in the vast Soul Pool. There seemed to be a True Dragon leaping about. The talisman formed by the Immortal Epoch's Ten Thousand Tribulation Divine Lightning was like a dragon breaking out of the sea, revealing the tip of an iceberg.
In that instant, the entire Soul Pool filled with golden electric light, filling every corner.
A golden talisman slowly appeared in Xiao Chen's palm. "Rumble …!" As the golden talisman surged, the entire secret realm trembled. It seemed like horrifying energy was brewing in Xiao Chen's body.
"Boom!"
When the golden talisman completely appeared, Xiao Chen's Dao Might underwent a complete transformation, undergoing a qualitative change. Now, it reached a might that only a tenth-layer Dao Domain could display.
Under the guidance of the golden talisman in Xiao Chen's palm, its might even surpassed that, looking incredibly horrifying.
At this moment, Xiao Chen felt like he grasped a surging power. Even this small world seemed weak in his eyes.
With just a light touch, the sky of this mystic realm would shatter into pieces and crumble.
"Withdraw!"
The talisman in Xiao Chen's Soul Pool, which had just revealed a small portion, vanished. The golden talisman returned to Xiao Chen's palm. Then, the three Dao Domains returned to his body, and the Alloy Dragon Armor slipped off his body.
In that instant, Xiao Chen turned from the incredibly horrifying Thunder God to a harmless 2-Vein Sovereign Emperor that looked like nothing special.
"I can release and withdraw at will … It looks like those demonic nature Dao Fruits were of great help to me. If my Thunder Dao Domain had not reached the peak of the fourth layer, it would have been impossible for me to control this tenth-layer Dao Might. "
Xiao Chen muttered to himself. At the same time, he felt that his strength had reached a bottleneck in all aspects.
His cultivation was stuck at peak 2-Vein Sovereign Emperor.
His Thunder Dao Domain was stuck at the peak of the fourth layer, unable to advance any further.
His Ten Thousand Dragons Art was stuck at the peak of the second layer, unable to break through to the third layer and reach the stage of ten thousand dragons soaring.
His Saber Technique was stuck at Merciless Killing, unable to reach Consummation. His Saber Dao Domain was also hard to break through.
"Perhaps … the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb is an opportunity for me to make a breakthrough in all aspects."
A brilliant light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes. If he broke through these bottlenecks one by one, it would be a miracle. If Xiao Chen broke through all these bottlenecks, his strength would undergo a true qualitative change. Even he could not imagine what it would be like.
"Let's not think about this for now. I'll stop here with the Thunder Dao Domain for now. The next step is to properly refine the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram."
Xiao Chen collected his thoughts and looked at the painting in his hand, filled with anticipation.
It was time to use the flame seeds that he had exchanged for with his military merits before leaving the Heavenly Alliance.
If one looked at the imperial capital from the starry heavens, one would see the Fourth Prince's Residence in the imperial palace radiating Dragon Qi.
Draconic energy surged, and their eyes shone with radiance. They revealed their ambitions as they stared above the imperial palace.
Above them was the True Dragon Sword formed by the imperial capital's Dragon Vein, the Yan Imperial Sword.
Whoever could hold this treasure sword, which symbolized the supreme authority of the Yanwu Dynasty, would be the True Dragon Son of Heaven, able to ascend to the Yan Emperor's throne.
At this moment, the aura of a Great Desolate Eon bloodline spread to every corner of the secret realm in the Thirteenth Prince's residence.
Pairs of golden Primordial Divine Eyes illuminated the sky, making it look like the sky was covered in gold. It was a shocking sight.
At the summit of the highest mountain in the secret realm, the Thirteenth Prince Wang Yi showed a smile as he looked at the golden sky, filled with lofty aspirations.
Two old men stood beside the Thirteenth Prince.
One of them wore a straw raincoat and carried a fishing rod on his back, looking like a fisherman. This was the White Marsh Beast Empire's royal teacher, Sikong Shu.
The other person wore silver dragon robes and exuded might without showing any anger. He gave off the faint air of kingship. This was the Divine Dragon Empire's Silver Dragon King.
Wang Yi said indifferently, "Seniors, we can begin now."
The Silver Dragon King nodded slightly. Then, he shouted only one word, "Fight!"
This shout seemed to ignite the Great Desolate Eon aura that filled the sky.
Below, the vast world erupted with a startling battle intent. Many figures hidden in the dark appeared. Every one of them was a Sovereign Emperor and possessed a pure Great Desolate Eon bloodline.
A startling chaotic battle started.
The Silver Dragon King smiled and said, "Thirteenth Prince, aside from the Golden Crow Empire, all the Sovereign Emperors under five hundred years old have gathered here. The last ten people to emerge from this chaotic battle will follow you to the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb. Sovereign Emperors with a Great Desolate Eon bloodline are very strong in the first place, able to cross realms to kill enemies. Then, this old man can't think of any reason for the Thirteenth Prince not to be the crown prince. "
Wang Yi rejoiced when he heard that. He could not help guffawing. "Senior Silver Dragon King, you are right. This is brilliant. The Bushin Palace truly lives up to being a super faction with the deepest accumulations. Such combat prowess is truly shocking. However, I originally wanted to reserve three spots for Brother Qin Ming, Brother Bai Yunfei, and Brother Xiahou. Unexpectedly, the three of them participated in the battle as well. "
Sikong Shu said indifferently, "The three of them are the strongest outstanding talents of the Bushin Palace. Even if they fight against the older-generation outstanding talents several hundred years old, they will not be at a disadvantage. Thirteenth Prince, don't worry. They will definitely be among the last ten standing. "
A bright light flashed in Wang Yi's eyes. After some thought, he said, "Is that so? In that case, I really have to take a good look. "
There were at least four hundred Sovereign Emperors gathered in the secret realm. This chaotic battle was very startling. The Bushin Palace ruled over the eight great empires. Its deep accumulations were somewhat terrifying.
As the Silver Dragon King said, every one of the Sovereign Emperors here was incredibly strong. Indeed, there was no reason for the Bushin Palace to lose when the ten were chosen to fight in the Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb.
However, the matters of the world were hard to predict.
The Ancient Yan Emperor Tomb contained many variables. No one could guarantee that they would have the last laugh.
The various princes anxiously recruited guests, choosing people with special talents.
However, the Secret Realm of the First Prince's Mansion seemed a little strange.
Inside the secret realm, Wang Fei showed a bored expression as he sat on the throne, downing cup after cup of wine.
A middle-aged man, a 6-Vein Sovereign Emperor, stood beside Wang Fei. He held a saber in his hand as he looked to the front with a grave expression.
This person was Zuo Yu, a peak expert that the imperial ancestral temple's patriarchs nurtured in secret. The imperial ancestral temple had been preparing for this succession race since several hundred years ago. This 6-Vein Sovereign Emperor Zuo Yu was the trump card that they carefully prepared for the First Prince Wang Fei.
A fortress ship with a blood moon banner hung in front of Zuo Yu, anchored at the summit of a mountain range.
The blood moon … this was the symbol of the Xuewu Dynasty.
A black-clad man whose cultivation was unfathomable stood in the hold of the fortress ship. He had an eyepatch on the left side of his face, revealing his eye. If one were to look carefully, they would discover that there seemed to be a row of vermilion dots on the pupil of his left eye that was exposed under the eye patch. It was extremely strange.
A man and a woman sat beside this black-clad man. Aside from them, the others stood behind these three.
The man on the left had a handsome face and a lotus-like air, showing a smile on his face. His elegant facial features nearly made people forget about his bald head and his identity as a monk.
This was the previous Black Lotus Church Holy Son, the current Black Lotus Sect Venerate, Ming Xuan.
If Xiao Chen were here, he would be shocked to see the woman on the right, thinking that Yang Qing came back to life.
It would not be hard for those who paid attention to her to guess that she was the Azure Lotus Holy Daughter.
At this moment, the focus was not on the three but on the person standing helplessly with his cultivation sealed.
"Milord … I already searched his soul. He does not have any memories of the inheritance key in his mind."
However, the black-clothed man with the mysterious left eye was dissatisfied. He looked at that person and muttered to himself, "Jiang He … the only son of the previous Heavenly Dragon. If even he does not know the whereabouts of the inheritance key, wouldn't that mean that no one in this world knows?"
