That night, as Xiao Chen was cultivating in his courtyard, Liu Suifeng rushed over. Xiao Chen had no choice but to stop cultivating and come out to welcome him.
In the past half a month, Liu Suifeng had improved every day. Now, he was filled with energy.
Xiao Chen smiled, "It is already so late, why are you looking for me?"
Liu Suifeng was not in a rush to reply. He looked around and did not discover Bai. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. He smiled and said, "There is a huge auction going on in Xihe City, the capital city of the Xihe Province. It is specially organized by Linlang Pavilion for cultivators. There are many good things there.
"Coincidentally, I am lacking a good Spirit Weapon and would like to try my luck. I was wondering if you would like to accompany me."
Linlang Pavilion's auction … Xiao Chen was excited. He had originally planned to go down the mountain during this period of time to search for a high ranked lightning-attributed Martial Technique.
Coincidentally, Linlang Pavilion was going to hold a large scale auction. This saved him a lot of effort. Xiao Chen asked with interest, "How big is the scale of the auction? What rank is it?"
Seeing that Xiao Chen was very interested, Liu Suifeng quickly introduced, "The scale is very big. It is a large scale auction that Linlang Pavilion holds once every ten years. Only Spirit Stones are allowed to be used for transactions. The standards are no weaker than the large scale auctions in the Imperial Capital."
With Linlang Pavilion's strength, it should not be difficult for them to collect some high ranked Martial Techniques. I can go and take a look.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen did not hesitate and agreed.
Liu Suifeng smiled, "Then it is settled. Oh right, if you are lacking Spirit Stones, you can tell me. I will go and get my Second Uncle to help you get some in advance."
Lacking Spirit Stones? Xiao Chen shook his head calmly and smiled, "There is no need, I have enough Spirit Stones."
Xiao Chen had not used the five thousand Medial Grade Spirit Stones he obtained in the underground world. These Medial Grade Spirit Stones could be exchanged for five hundred thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones.
There were also the two hundred Medial Grade Spirit Stones from half a month ago and the five thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones that he had just obtained today.
If he added the Demonic Cores in his Universe Ring that could be exchanged for Inferior Grade Spirit Stones, Xiao Chen's Spirit Stones might even be more than what the already declined Qingyun Peak had.
With so many Spirit Stones, it would be more than enough to buy a Superior Grade Earth Ranked lightning-attributed Martial Technique. There was no need to worry.
Liu Suifeng said, "That's good. I will come and find you tomorrow morning."
Early the next morning, Liu Suifeng arrived as scheduled. Xihe City was 25,000 kilometers away from the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. It was a long journey. Naturally, the two of them could not walk there.
When they arrived at the place where the Heavenly Saber Pavilion reared Spirit Beasts, the two of them each took out their Spirit Stones and rented two Dragon Blood Horses that could travel 1500 kilometers in a day. They did not say anything and went down the mountain.
Not long after the two of them left, Song Qianhe, who was on Biyun Peak, went to Song Que's room in pleasant surprise. The moment he opened the door, he smiled and said, "Father, you told me to send people to keep an eye on Xiao Chen. He has gone down the mountain."
On the bed, Song Que, who was cultivating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes. A vicious look flashed in his eyes as he said coldly, "Is this true? Where are they going? What are they planning to do? How long will they be gone for? Tell me everything in detail."
Song Qianhe quickly said, "I heard from the Spirit Beast Hall that they are going to Xihe City to participate in the decennial auction. With the speed of the Dragon Blood Horses, the round trip would take about a month."
"I finally found an opportunity. There are people in the Heavenly Saber Pavilion protecting you, so I have no way of killing you. However, once you leave the Heavenly Saber Pavilion, let's see who can protect you.
How reckless! "Song Que got up and smiled sinisterly," I have some old friends who are going to the decennial auction. I can ask them for help. "
The Dragon Blood Horse could travel one thousand five hundred kilometers in a day. If they traveled day and night, it would not be a problem for them to travel two thousand five hundred kilometers. However, be it man or horse, they could not travel day and night.
They might meet with some dangers along the way. The two of them had to maintain their peak condition. On average, the two of them could only travel two thousand kilometers a day at most.
--- Three days later, Xiao Chen and Liu Suifeng stopped in front of a savanna.
Liu Suifeng introduced, "This savanna is called the Devil Savanna. The entire savanna is about the size of three Lingyun Mountain Ranges. There are countless Spirit Beasts in the savanna. There are also hundreds of bandits. This is the most dangerous part of our journey."
Xiao Chen dismounted and said, "Then let's rest for a while. After that, we will continue on our way at full speed. Let's try to get out of this place as soon as possible."
The two of them found a clean patch of grass and started to set up camp. They had been eating and sleeping in the open along the way, so they were very familiar with setting up camp. Soon, two small tents were set up.
After they took out their rations and water to replenish themselves, the two of them started to rest.
Night slowly fell. The two of them discussed for a while and decided that Xiao Chen would stand guard tonight while Liu Suifeng would rest.
"Roar!"
Xiao Chen started a bonfire in front of his tent and sat there quietly. The roars of Spirit Beasts came from the distance. The light of the bonfire shone on Xiao Chen's face, flickering non-stop. Xiao Chen's expression was incomparably calm.
Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense spread out like a halo. He could see everything within a kilometer in his mind.
"There is a group of Superior Grade Rank 4 Demonic Beasts to the northwest. There are about two hundred of them. The Wolf King is already close to a Rank 5 Demonic Beast.
"There is a Rank 5 Demonic Beast Lightning Ox to the northeast. It is the strongest Demonic Beast in the surroundings. There are also three Demonic Blood Lions to the south."
Xiao Chen slowly got up and looked to the northeast. He smiled faintly and said, "It looks like the two of us are really popular. Unexpectedly, so many Spirit Beasts are targeting us. I will start with you."
"Lightning Evasion!"
A bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the pitch-black night sky. As the lightning descended, Xiao Chen appeared beside the Lightning Ox.
As a lightning-attributed Spirit Beast, the Lightning Ox was very sensitive to lightning. The moment Xiao Chen appeared, a bolt of lightning as thick as an arm came from the Lightning Ox's horn and struck at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen said coldly, "Just a grain of light and you dare to compete with the sun and the moon? You are seeking death!"
The clouds in the sky started to collide. Before Xiao Chen made his move, the momentum of the state of thunder had already formed.
"Ka Ca!"
The Lunar Shadow Saber was drawn at lightning speed. An explosion of thunder resounded in the silent savanna as Xiao Chen drew his saber. A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket descended from the sky.
The bolt of lightning was attached to the saber. In comparison, the bolt of lightning that the Lightning Ox shot out was like a baby meeting an adult; it was instantly swallowed up.
The momentum of the saber did not change and its might did not decrease. The Lunar Shadow Saber hacked down on the huge body.
"Pu Ci!"
The horrifying electric saber light chopped the Lightning Ox in half. The electricity lingered on the wound and the fragrance of roasted beef wafted through the savanna.
When the remaining Spirit Beasts saw Xiao Chen deal with the strongest Lightning Ox in one move, they immediately scattered, fleeing in all directions.
Xiao Chen did not bother with them. After he took out the Lightning Ox's Spirit Core, he returned to his tent. Seeing that the bonfire was about to extinguish, he added some more firewood.
"What happened?" Liu Suifeng, who was startled awake by the thunder, asked as he walked out of his tent.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly, "Nothing much, I just chased away some Spirit Beasts. You can continue sleeping!"
Liu Suifeng nodded and returned to his tent. He was rather confident in Xiao Chen's strength. As long as he did not meet with the peak Spirit Beasts of the Devil Savanna, he would be able to move about freely.
A thousand meters away, in a place where Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense could not reach, there were two bandits on a small hill, each carrying a large saber on their back. They were riding tall horses and had seen the earlier scene.
One of the bandits was somewhat astonished as he said, "What strength! He killed the Rank 5 Lightning Ox in one strike. First Leader, are we still going to make a move?"
The bandit who was addressed as the First Leader had a long scar on his face. He was tall and sturdy, looking very ferocious.
He smiled cruelly and said, "The stronger they are, the more good things they have on them. It is just two people. Our bandit group has a total of two hundred people. When have we been afraid of anyone in this savanna?"
The other bandit continued, "They should be going to participate in Xihe City's auction. Recently, I heard from the brothers of the other bandit groups that they have already done a few such transactions."
"They have gained a lot. In fact, just one transaction would be worth tens of thousands of Inferior Grade Spirit Stones. However, these two people seem to be core disciples of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. Are we afraid of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion's revenge by targeting them?"
The First Leader laughed loudly, "What's there to be afraid of? We will silence them and destroy the corpses. Who would know that we did it? At worst, we will just go out and lie low for a while.
"At that time, when the Heavenly Saber Pavilion comes to take revenge, the other bandit groups will suffer. They will help us kill off some of our competitors for free."
When the other bandit heard this, he smiled and said, "First Leader is wise. That way, we will not lose out no matter what."
The First Leader said coldly, "Gather the brothers. We will make our move tomorrow at noon."
When the sky brightened, Xiao Chen and Liu Suifeng mounted their Dragon Blood Horses and continued on their way.
Not long after, Xiao Chen suddenly pulled on the reins and stopped. Liu Suifeng quickly stopped as well and asked cautiously, "Is there a situation?"
Xiao Chen nodded, "We are being targeted by a bandit group. There are two hundred of them, and the weakest of them is a Martial Grand Master. There are about ten of them who are Martial Saints and above. The leader with the highest cultivation is a Superior Grade Martial Saint."
"What should we do?!" When Liu Suifeng heard that there were so many people, he could not help but worry.
Xiao Chen said indifferently, "To capture the bandits, first capture the leader. Kill the one with the highest cultivation. The rest are nothing to be afraid of."
"Rumble …!"
Indeed, it was as Xiao Chen said. Not long later, a group of two hundred bandits arrived before the two of them in a grandiose manner.
The leader of the other party was the First Leader from yesterday. When he saw the two of them, he revealed a sinister smile on his horrifying face. He did not bother saying anything and charged over while roaring.
Xiao Chen slapped the back of the horse and immediately soared into the air. In an instant, countless hidden weapons and arrows flew towards him at high speed.
"Azure Dragon Tail Whip!" Xiao Chen shouted and turned into a purple arc. It was like a flood dragon swaying in the air. All the arrows flying at him fell to the ground with a 'hua la la la' sound.
At the end of the arc, Xiao Chen instantly appeared in front of the First Leader. He drew his Lunar Shadow Saber with a 'huang dang' sound. A horrifying lightning glow with the aura of a thunderbolt struck towards the head of the Leader.
