The two did not say anything more. They each removed the jade pendants on their chests. They needed to have the jade pendants to remain in the Ancient Desolate Tower. If they destroyed their jade pendants, they would be sent out of the Ancient Desolate Tower.
"Hua!"
The two crushed their jade pendants at the same time and turned into beams of dim light shooting out of the Ancient Desolate Tower.
At the foot of the Tianwu Emperor, Shi Hailong watched Zuo Mo and Ding Fengchou forfeit. The light in his eyes intensified. "Only Chu Chaoyun and Xiao Chen remain. We will know who that person is soon."
An elder at the side added, "It has been a few years already, and no one has been able to clear the fourth floor. This time, two people appeared. Furthermore, they are trying to clear the fifth floor. This is quite rare."
Li Xiuzhu, who had been silent all this while, smiled coldly. "The fifth floor is the Door of Desire. If you do not come out within an hour, you will sink into oblivion."
Li Xiuzhu's heart turned cold. He had not expected that the brat he did not think highly of would be able to continue.
First, Xiao Chen obtained a hundred consecutive victories, obtaining one of the twenty spots. Now, he cleared four floors and reached the fifth floor. If he allowed Xiao Chen to continue, he would have nowhere to hide.
Li Xiuzhu thought about how he had made things difficult for Xiao Chen back then. At that time, he would have nowhere to hide his old face.
Damn brat, you better sink into oblivion, Li Xiuzhu cursed in his heart.
Inside the Door of Desire:
At the main peak of the Ten Thousand Saber Sect, it had been raining for three days and three nights already.
Every night, the spiritual rain with motes of light in the air was a spectacle of the Ten Thousand Saber Sect. It could be seen clearly from the foot of the mountain.
However, the Ten Thousand Saber Sect disciples were not surprised by this. Every time they destroyed a large sect, such a situation would occur.
They knew that the Sect Master, Xiao Chen, was using the ancient formation to cultivate. Furthermore, after he came out of closed-door cultivation, he would start another expedition.
Now, the Ten Thousand Saber Sect could be said to be unbridled in the Great Qin Nation. Practically no one could stop them. Even the Imperial Dragon Legion of the royal court had to retreat, not daring to clash with them.
Everyone knew that the current Xiao Chen was the Thunder King of the past. Sooner or later, he would step into the threshold of Martial Emperor and become a true peak expert.
The Ten Thousand Saber Sect had countless small and large forces coming to join them every day.
"I wonder which target he will choose after he comes out of closed-door cultivation. Right now, the Great Qin Nation only has the Heavenly Saber Pavilion and the Royal Court."
"I feel that it will be the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. After all, the Royal Clan still has their accumulations. Princess Ying Yue's strength is close to the Sect Master's. It will be hard to deal with them."
"However, I heard that the Sect Master came from the Heavenly Saber Pavilion back then. Why would he make a move against the Heavenly Saber Pavilion? After all, are there still any feelings?"
"So what if you have feelings? After reaching Martial Sage, the resources you need to cultivate will reach an astronomical figure. If you do not plunder those large sects, how can you guarantee a fast cultivation speed?"
At the foot of the mountain, a few patrolling core disciples of the Ten Thousand Saber Sect were chatting about Xiao Chen's next target.
"Assemble!"
At this moment, the bell in the hall on the mountainside began to ring. It rang a total of 12 times.
The patrolling disciples immediately revealed excited expressions. They stopped chatting and headed for the entrance of the hall.
The thousands of core disciples of the Ten Thousand Saber Sect had all gathered in front of the huge hall. Lan Chou, who was on a high platform, looked at the crowd below with a pleased expression.
"We will rest for the night. Tomorrow morning, we will advance to the Imperial Capital!" Lan Chou waved his hand, and his resonant voice resounded throughout the entire mountain.
The well-trained core disciples didn't say anything and immediately scattered in all directions to begin their final preparations.
The Essence of the fifty thousand Superior Grade Spirit Stones in the Spirit Gathering Formation was completely exhausted. A strand of spiritual fire came out from under Xiao Chen and spread throughout the entire formation.
"Xiu!"
As the spiritual fire burned, all the materials were burned away. Xiao Chen stood in the air with a bright light in his eyes.
"Indeed, Superior Grade Spirit Stones are more effective. However, this Rank 9 Spirit Gathering Formation exhausted too many Superior Grade Spirit Stones. I have to go to the Royal Court."
Xiao Chen said resolutely as he looked in the direction of the Imperial Capital.
Early the next morning, hundreds of warships hovered in the air above the Ten Thousand Saber Sect. Banners fluttered in the wind from the bows of the warships.
Xiao Chen stood on the summit and watched all this with a cold expression. He had no feelings for the sect under him.
Everything was just a pawn for him to gather resources. The authority of the mundane world was just mundane in his eyes. It was the shackles of a cultivator, a desire, an emotion that had to be severed.
"Xiu!"
With a thought, a scarlet light flickered on Xiao Chen's forehead, and a scarlet throne appeared from nowhere. Xiao Chen sat on the throne, holding the Lunar Shadow Saber in his right hand and holding it to the bottom of the throne.
Riding on the continuous blood clouds under the throne, Xiao Chen arrived in front of the fleet in a flash. He raised his left hand slightly and flew forward without saying anything.
On the flagship, when Lan Chou saw Xiao Chen's gesture, he quickly shouted, "Depart!"
Leading all the elites of the Ten Thousand Saber Sect, Xiao Chen leaned on the scarlet throne. He supported his chin with his right hand and held the Lunar Shadow Saber with his left.
He closed his eyes lazily and rested. Even though his eyes were closed, he did not emit any aura.
However, on the throne, Xiao Chen still gave off the impression of being unparalleled, looking down on the world. The aura of a supreme king spread out.
The cultivators passing by did not hesitate to give way. Furthermore, they retreated silently. They were afraid that they would startle Xiao Chen and invite a great disaster upon themselves. "Chi!
Chi! "
The scarlet mark on Xiao Chen's forehead started to flicker continuously. He opened his eyes, and a faint expression flashed on his somewhat charming and fair face.
About ten kilometers in front, there were many golden warships. They were the Great Qin Nation's Imperial Dragon Legion.
On the flagship, an old man wearing golden Battle Armor looked at Xiao Chen with a grave expression. There was some anxiety in his eyes.
The old man's Qi and blood surged, and a strong aura soared into the sky. People could clearly feel it from ten kilometers away.
On the throne, Xiao Chen straightened his body and muttered, "Nangong Lie? What can a half-step Martial Sage do?! "
"Xiu!"
The throne doubled its speed and flashed forward. In the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen arrived in front of the Imperial Dragon Legion on a red cloud.
"Xiao Chen is here!"
Seeing the red cloud in the sky, the people on the warships panicked. Everyone had nervous expressions.
"Xiao Chen, do you really want to destroy the Great Qin Nation that much?" Nangong Lie shouted angrily as he looked at Xiao Chen from the flagship.
Xiao Chen replied expressionlessly, "I don't want to. I only need resources. All I seek is the peak of the martial way."
Nangong Lie scolded, "Sophistry. How is this any different from destroying the Great Qin Nation?"
Xiao Chen said calmly, "Destroying the nation is just a means, not the end. I only have one goal from start to end!"
"How stubborn! Don't think that you can cover the Great Qin Nation with one hand!"
Nangong Lie shouted, and his figure flickered in the air. He threw a palm strike, and a scorching palm wind smashed at Xiao Chen.
A strong wind blew, and the force of this palm strike caused the air to boil. Boundless flames surged out.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "After so many years, you are still stuck at half-step Martial Sage. You are not strong enough!"
"Bang!"
Xiao Chen pointed at Nangong Lie from afar, and a huge azure finger appeared. Then, it struck Nangong Lie's chest, and there was a loud sound.
Nangong Lie vomited a mouthful of blood and flew back. His figure spun around. Nangong Lie's figure flickered, and a Inferno Saber appeared in his hand. Flames gathered on the saber, forming a resplendent saber light.
"Boom!"
The saber light chopped down ferociously, and the space above Xiao Chen's head was chopped in half, leaving behind a pitch-black spatial tear.
Xiao Chen sat on the scarlet throne. He could not even be bothered to draw his Lunar Shadow Saber. He stretched out a finger above his head and gently blocked this saber strike.
Nangong Lie did not give up. His saber gave off a two-hundred-meter-long saber light. His figure flickered, and he surrounded Xiao Chen, sending out countless saber images in all directions. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! "
Xiao Chen stretched out a finger and moved it up and down, blocking the overwhelming saber light one meter in front of him.
Sparks exploded on the saber light. However, it was useless against Xiao Chen's Quintessence shield.
Xiao Chen looked at the futile Nangong Lie, who continued to work hard. He said, "Your talent is not bad, and you became famous at a young age. Do you know why your progress is so slow? Why are you still stuck at half-step Martial Sage after so many years? You do not have resources. If you could consume ten million Medial Grade Spirit Stones in one go, you would be able to break through immediately.
"Unfortunately, you do not have the courage to do so. So, you can scram now!"
Xiao Chen's gaze turned cold, and he formed a claw with his right hand. An azure-colored dragon claw instantly appeared, and a resonant dragon roar resounded.
The dragon claw pressed forward, and the laws of the world changed. Nangong Lie, who was a kilometer away, appeared uncontrollably in front of Xiao Chen.
"Scram!"
Xiao Chen swung the back of his right hand, and the dragon claw moved with it. Nangong Lie's internal organs were injured, and he fell to the ground like a broken kite.
"Fire! He just used the laws of the world. He cannot use the power of the world for now!"
Nangong Lie shouted with all his might after he landed. "Dang! Dang!
Dang! "
The strengthened Ancient Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons on the Imperial Dragon Legion's warships instantly fired. Thousands of sharp cannonballs flew at Xiao Chen.
The cannonballs formed a resplendent and magnificent scene in the air. If thousands of Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons struck Xiao Chen at the same time, even a Martial Sage who could not circulate the laws of the world would suffer.
Xiao Chen looked coldly at the descending Nangong Lie. A murderous intent rose in Xiao Chen's heart. His original intention of sparing Nangong Lie's life vanished.
An azure-colored finger appeared at lightning speed and tapped Nangong Lie's forehead. "Pu ci!" A bloody hole instantly appeared.
After doing all this, Xiao Chen circulated his Quintessence and started to block the incoming Ancient Demonic Energy Cannons.
"Bang!"
Thousands of energy beams that could shatter mountains struck Xiao Chen's Quintessence shield. The Quintessence shield only lasted for half a second before shattering. "Pa! Pa!
Pa! Pa! "
The beams of light struck Xiao Chen's body continuously. Xiao Chen allowed his body to churn and his internal organs to move. However, his expression did not change at all.
However, it seemed even colder. When the beam of light stopped completely …
When the beams of light stopped, Xiao Chen wiped the blood off his lips and looked at the Imperial Dragon Legion indifferently. He said coldly, "Scram!"
All Xiao Chen wanted was the resources of the Royal Court. He did not hate this group of people. If Nangong Lie had not schemed against him at the last moment, he would not have killed them.
