Xiao Chen flicked his finger and sent out an extremely dense strand of Purple Thunder True Fire. Then, he ignored Yun Ping and quickly chased after the black-clothed man.
The purple fire pierced through the back of Yun Ping's head. Yun Ping's eyes lost their color as he fell heavily to the ground.
Two strands of red light flew out from the two corpses and chased after the fleeing Xiao Chen. Then, they entered his sea of consciousness.
The pool of blood in the scarlet throne had increased in size. At the same time, the intoxicating pleasure appeared.
Xiao Chen's gaze was resolute. He did not hesitate to cut off this disharmonious feeling and continued to chase after the black-clothed man.
Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense could sense that the black-clothed man was moving at three times the speed of sound.
Given Xiao Chen's current speed of 3.5 times the speed of sound, he would catch up soon. However, the downtown area was not far away.
There were many experts in Desolate City. Xiao Chen was afraid of attracting unnecessary trouble, so he planned to block the black-clothed man.
"Lightning Evasion! Lightning Evasion! Lightning Evasion!"
Xiao Chen ignored the exhaustion of his Essence and Mental Energy. Bolts of lightning crackled on the vast land as lightning descended.
Xiao Chen moved like he was teleporting. He advanced continuously, slowly closing the distance between him and the black-clothed man.
Thunder roared endlessly, and the black-clothed man could not help but turn his head to take a look.
It would have been fine if he had not looked. However, when he looked, he was even more astonished. Every time a bolt of lightning descended, Xiao Chen's figure would appear together with it.
The distance between him and Xiao Chen shortened rapidly. The black-clothed man was startled. What Movement Technique is this? Why does it seem like teleportation?
"Boom!"
A bolt of lightning descended in front of him. Xiao Chen's figure suddenly appeared before him.
The black-clothed man quickly turned his head around and took a few steps back. His right hand grasped the hilt of his sword tightly.
Xiao Chen pointed his saber at the black-clothed man and shouted coldly, "Hiding your head but showing your tail. Who exactly are you?!"
"You don't need to know who I am. All you need to know is that sooner or later, I will come and take your high-class monster core."
The man in black calmed himself down and sighed in his heart. It seemed that he had to use his trump card today.
Holy Fire Burns the Heavens!
With a light shout, the black-clothed man quickly formed a seal with his hands. His abdomen and dantian suddenly became transparent.
A wisp of pale-white flame quickly burned in the dantian as the black-clothed man formed hand seals.
Boom!
When the hand seal was completely formed, pale white flames immediately surged out of his body, forming a white flame vortex that rushed toward Xiao Chen.
The flames were incomparably cold. The moment they appeared, the surrounding temperature plummeted, causing everyone to feel a bone-piercing chill. It was as if their blood was being frozen.
What a strong Extreme Yin Flame, Xiao Chen thought to himself. It looks like I have to use the Purple Thunder True Fire to block it.
Before an ordinary saber move could even get close, this Extreme Yin Flame would burn it into ice shards.
With a thought, a fierce purple flame quickly burned in Xiao Chen's right eye. Soon, it formed a purple whirlpool and spewed out.
"Bang!"
In the dark night, the purple whirlpool and the white whirlpool quickly clashed with each other.
The two flames did not give way to each other, but they restrained each other. The moment they came into contact, they intertwined intensely, trying to swallow each other up.
However, the two whirlpools were evenly matched. Neither could do anything to the other. They could only mix together and eventually explode.
The surging shockwaves spread out in all directions. A deep, spiral-shaped pit appeared in the ground. A few strands of cold wind blew out of it.
When the shockwaves struck the two, their complexions paled. However, Xiao Chen's physical body was strong; he could endure it much better than his opponent.
If Xiao Chen suffered the same blow, he would not be as severely injured as his opponent.
"Xiu!"
The whirlpool scattered, and a strand of purple flame flew toward Xiao Chen. That was the Purple Thunder True Fire's Origin Flame.
On the other side, the Extreme Yin Flame's Origin Flame also slowly flew toward the black-clothed man.
"Glittering Wukui!"
"Qi Breaks Wukui!"
"Wukui Transforms to Qi!"
Xiao Chen felt excited. This is a good opportunity!
Without waiting for the Purple Thunder True Fire's Origin Flame to enter his eye, Xiao Chen immediately attacked the black-clothed man.
Xiao Chen quickly executed the three foundational moves of the Wukui Saber Technique in a short time.
A chain of purple saber Qi flickered with crackling electric light. Each wave was stronger than the one before as they attacked the black-clothed man.
The black-clothed man focused on controlling the Origin Flame and absorbing it into his body. After all, that was an Origin Flame. He had refined it for ten-odd years before succeeding.
If ten-odd years of hard work were lost, any cultivator would despair.
The black-clothed man originally thought that Xiao Chen would be like him, focusing on absorbing his Origin Flame. Who knew, this fellow did not play by the rules.
Xiao Chen directly gave up on retrieving his Origin Flame and took the initiative to attack. This made the black-clothed man feel like vomiting blood.
The saber Qi surged. Caught off guard, the black-clothed man got a few bloody wounds from the purple saber Qi.
The purple electric light instantly poured into the black-clothed man's body, giving off a crackling sound. The black-clothed man's wounds felt incredibly painful, and his movements immediately slowed.
While you are down, I will take your life!
After gaining the initiative, Xiao Chen did not spare the black-clothed man. His aura soared into the sky, and his Qi and blood surged endlessly.
Xiao Chen executed the extremely tyrannical Wukui Shakes the Heavens again. The divine Wukui Tree suddenly appeared, carrying the force of thunder.
It pressed down on the black-clothed man like a five-ton cauldron.
"Bang!"
The black-clothed man received this move head-on and went flying back. He vomited a mouthful of blood, and his clothes immediately became tattered.
"Xiao Chen, consider it my loss today. However, as long as you remain in this Ancient Desolate Land, I will take back what you owe me tenfold, a hundredfold!"
The black-clothed man looked at the drifting white Origin Flame with extreme dissatisfaction. After leaving behind these words, he quickly left this place.
"Ka ca!"
Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and did not give chase. He had already guessed this person's identity. It was the Holy Fire Manor's Leng Yun!
From the moment Leng Yun mentioned the peak high-rank Blood Demon's Demon Core, Xiao Chen had already suspected it. When he saw the pale white Extreme Yin Flame, Xiao Chen was certain of his suspicions.
If Xiao Chen gave chase now, he was ninety percent confident of finishing off this person tonight. However, when he saw the white Origin Flame floating beside him, Xiao Chen completely gave up on chasing after him.
The earlier fight was too intense; it had already attracted the attention of some people. If Xiao Chen gave chase, he would lose these two Origin Flames. The losses outweighed the gains.
Xiao Chen retrieved his Origin Flame into his right eye. Then, he used his Spiritual Sense to wrap around Leng Yun's Origin Flame and placed it in his sea of consciousness.
After Xiao Chen did all that, he quickly left this place and headed for his courtyard.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Chen arrived in front of his courtyard. The moment he stepped in, his expression suddenly turned strange.
For some reason, the four Lunar True Flames that originally existed in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness all tangled with each other and started fighting with all their might.
The four even paler Lunar True Flames in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness headed for the Extreme Yin Flame's Origin Flame. They quickly tangled with each other, trying to swallow up the Origin Flame.
Looking at the situation, it was as if four slightly weak middle-aged men were besieging a strong young man.
The youth was stronger, but the middle-aged men outnumbered him. When they surrounded him, they held the advantage.
The fluctuations in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness were caused by the intense resistance of the Origin Flame. Although it did not have any intelligence, it instinctively did not want to be swallowed up by the Lunar True Flames.
When Xiao Chen saw this scene, he entered deep thought. Among the Yin Flames, the flames were also divided into different grades.
There were the Extreme Yin Flame, the Extreme Yin Flame, and the Lunar True Flame. Of the three, the Lunar True Flame was the highest.
It was as famous as the Extreme Solar True Flame. As for the legendary Heavenly Flame, it was said that it could only be resisted by perfectly merging the Lunar True Flame and the Solar True Flame.
However, Yin and Yang were two opposing energies. Even the lowest-grade Heavenly Flame would cause an intense explosion.
It was even more difficult to merge the highest-grade Lunar True Flame and Solar True Flame. This was why the Heavenly Emperor had been able to use his powerful Martial Techniques and the Heavenly Flame to sweep through the world, unrivaled.
Now, it looked like energies of the same attribute could swallow and merge with each other to strengthen themselves.
With a thought, Xiao Chen decided to help the Lunar True Flame. After all, the Lunar True Flame was of a higher grade.
Furthermore, it was a flame that Xiao Chen needed to refine equipment in the future. It would be unreasonable not to protect it.
Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense turned into small, sharp arrows and pierced into the Origin Flame in his sea of consciousness. Then, he started to slice the Origin Flame apart.
The Origin Flame's advantage was its high density. Hence, it could not be swallowed up by the Lunar True Flame.
Now that Xiao Chen scattered the density of the Origin Flame, the four strands of Lunar True Flame immediately found an opportunity to quickly swallow it up.
As time slowly passed, the power of the Origin Flame grew weaker, while the Lunar True Flame grew stronger. It would not be long before it completely devoured the Origin Flame.
"Xiu!"
The space in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness trembled slightly. The Lunar True Flame finally swallowed up the Origin Flame. The five strands of Lunar True Flame turned into one strand of Lunar True Flame.
With a thought, Xiao Chen summoned out the brand new Lunar True Flame. Then, he placed it on his palm and looked at it carefully.
The pale white flame floated above Xiao Chen's palm. It looked no different from before. However, there was a rice-grain-sized bright spot in the center of the flame.
In the past, the Lunar True Flame was just four strands of flame without an Origin Flame of its own. Now, it finally had one. It could be considered a true Lunar True Flame.
Although that Origin Flame was pitifully small, almost negligible, Xiao Chen was very satisfied. He had not expected to have such an unexpected gain tonight.
Everything was difficult at the beginning. With a foundation, there was no need to fear that it would not grow stronger. He finally had some progress on refining the Origin Flame.
Xiao Chen returned the Lunar True Flame to his sea of consciousness again. Then, he muttered, "The Holy Fire Manor is famous for its holy fire. Perhaps there really is an Extreme Yin Flame Seed there. If there is an opportunity, I should go and take a look."
After dealing with the two corpses in the courtyard, Xiao Chen entered his bedroom and lit an oil lamp. Under the flickering flame, he continued to read Bai Lixi's cultivation notes.
When it was late at night, Xiao Chen started to struggle to keep his eyelids open. He had not had a good night's sleep for the past few days. He could no longer endure it and fell asleep on the table.
"Chi chi!"
It was unknown when, but the melodious chirping of a bird resounded outside the house. Xiao Chen slowly woke up from his deep sleep. The glaring sunlight shone through the cracks of the door and window.
Piercing sunlight shone through the cracks in the door and window. Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed as he spat out a long breath of turbid air. Then, he stretched his body and felt refreshed.
