The solid crystalline saber light flickered continuously as Xiao Chen chopped the fireballs flying at him in half. Then, he calmly calculated the distance between him and the Fire Demon.
"Another hundred meters … ninety meters … eighty meters … I'm there! Blue Dragon Tail Whip!"
"Hu chi!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's body moved in an arc, like the tail of a huge dragon. A strong wind blew as Xiao Chen arrived beside the Fire Demon in front.
The peak Fire Demon's face was filled with astonishment. Its expression changed drastically. Clearly, it had not expected Xiao Chen to have such a strange Movement Technique.
"Ka ca!" The saber light flashed. Before the peak Fire Demon's horrified eyes, Xiao Chen chopped it in half at the waist.
After extracting the Demon Core from the Fire Demon's chest, Xiao Chen slowly landed on the ground. Then, he closed his eyes and started to digest the killing intent that this Fire Demon gave him.
After a while, Xiao Chen opened his eyes again. His gaze was clear, and the killing intent had completely vanished.
"The killing intent of a peak Blood Demon is indeed strong. This kind of test will allow me to perfectly grasp the state of massacre. Nirvana Island, I will definitely rise from the ashes on this Nirvana Island."
In the following days, Leng Yue acted as Xiao Chen's eyes, helping him detect the Demons in advance and determine their strength before deciding whether to kill them or not.
Xiao Chen knew his own limits. He did not venture deeper into the island, only killing some peak Demons in the periphery.
Time slowly went by. On this island, where there was no day or night, Xiao Chen cultivated, killing, and killing. Every day, he repeated the monotonous and dull life.
Just like that, five months passed in a flash. During this time, the blood moon appeared three times.
All the high-ranked Demons on Nirvana Island went berserk. In the core of the island, the elite disciples of the Divine Dragon Palace and peak half-step Martial Monarchs from all over fought a bitter battle with the Demons.
Compared to the battle on the outpost islets, the battle on the outpost islets paled in comparison. For the first time, Xiao Chen clearly understood that this was the core of the entire battlefield.
At this time, the Demons would gather at the core area to attack the Divine Dragon Palace's camp. This gave Xiao Chen an opportunity to sneak over without being discovered by a large number of Demons.
Hence, every time the blood moon rose into the sky, Xiao Chen would watch the battles of these peak half-step Martial Monarchs. From there, he would learn all sorts of Martial Techniques and benefit greatly.
What made Xiao Chen even happier was that he saw Sun Guangquan among the group of peak half-step Martial Monarchs. This senior's cultivation was much more refined than before. He was one step closer to becoming a Martial Monarch.
On this day, Xiao Chen lured over five top-tier Fire Demons in one go. He only used ten moves to end the lives of these Fire Demons at the same time.
A large number of red glowing spheres surged towards Xiao Chen's forehead. The pleasure of killing filled his whole body, but Xiao Chen's heart was calm, and there was no sign of him sinking into desire.
Now, Xiao Chen could see things very clearly. His grasp of killing had become more skillful. He knew how to guide the desire to kill in his heart.
Xiao Chen skillfully extracted the Demon Cores from the Demons. Then, he asked calmly, "Leng Yue, how long have we been on the island?"
"Five months and sixteen days. Why?"
Xiao Chen muttered, "Let's go. It's time to go back."
Xiao Chen's cultivation path had its ups and downs. After fighting for close to half a year, he had already reached the limits of his body.
He was still young and did not need to risk his life like those peak Martial Monarchs in the core area of the island. This was because they did not have much lifespan left. Perhaps this was their last chance to advance to Martial Monarch. They had to risk their lives.
There would be plenty of opportunities in the future. They could not afford to waste their time here. That would be a great regret.
When Xiao Chen walked out of the island and stepped onto the scarlet sea, he suddenly felt his entire body relax. His entire body felt very comfortable.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Chen understood the reason behind this. After being under the mental pressure of the island for a long time, the mental pressure had decreased significantly. It would be strange if he did not feel relaxed.
The originally dark scarlet sea now looked very bright in Xiao Chen's eyes. It looked like my eyes had benefited from being in the dark for a long time.
When Xiao Chen looked down, he saw that Xiao Chen's reflection in the scarlet sea looked much older. After half a year of killing and experiential training, all the tenderness on his face was gone.
When Xiao Chen looked at himself in the water, his heart skipped a beat. He had not looked at himself seriously for a long time. When he looked at himself seriously, he suddenly discovered that he had grown so much.
Xiao Chen muttered softly, "It's been four years. I did not expect four years to pass in the blink of an eye."
Xiao Chen had already been in this world for four years. Four years ago, he did not know if he would have imagined that he would have such accomplishments today.
"What do you mean by four years?" Leng Yue, who was at the side, asked, finding it strange.
Xiao Chen did not answer Leng Yue's question. He raised his head and looked ahead. His gaze seemed to be able to see far into the distance. He said, "Someone is coming."
Leng Yue raised her head and looked. Indeed, there was a small team of nine people riding valiant Royal Blood Horses at the limits of her vision. Clearly, their destination was the Nirvana Island behind Xiao Chen.
The auras of these nine people were very strong. They were all Small Perfection half-step Martial Monarchs. The person leading them was a peak Small Perfection half-step Martial Monarch.
This person wore azure robes and had a handsome and elegant appearance. His gaze was as sharp as a sword. He looked very similar to the green-robed young master.
"The two of you, stop right there," the leader suddenly shouted as he passed by the two.
That person's tone was very tyrannical. Xiao Chen frowned slightly, feeling displeased.
Royal Blood Horses could travel on water and were very fast. They were very expensive and could only be found in the Boundless Sea. Furthermore, there was no market for them; they were very difficult to buy.
These nine people each had a horse. Their origins were definitely not simple. Xiao Chen thought for a while before turning around and asking, "What's the matter?"
The cultivator in azure smiled faintly and looked at Leng Yue, who was beside Xiao Chen. He said, "Get your woman to remove her veil for me to take a look."
Xiao Chen frowned and did not say anything. He only placed his right hand on the hilt of his saber.
"Brat, don't be so untactful. Do you know what kind of person my Young Master is?"
"Ha ha! My Young Master just wants to take a look. It's not like you will die. If my Young Master takes a liking to you, you will be able to make a meteoric rise," the middle-aged cultivators behind the cultivator in azure said.
When Leng Yue saw that Xiao Chen could not sense it, she nodded slightly. She understood what Xiao Chen meant.
The purple mark on Leng Yue's forehead flickered with light. Her eyes released strands of pink light. The nine people riding on the Royal Blood Horses immediately felt dazzled. Their blood started to boil as they entered a hallucination.
"Ka ca!"
The Lunar Shadow Saber was drawn at lightning speed. Then, Xiao Chen's figure wavered and turned into nine afterimages. He executed Qingyun Peak's secret technique, the Clear Wind Chop, hiding a boundless killing intent in the gentle breeze.
The cultivator in azure clothes reacted the fastest. He only used half a second to wake up from the hallucination.
He slapped the back of his horse, and its speed increased explosively. In an instant, he flew more than five hundred meters. However, a clone still managed to leave a bloody wound on his chest.
Electricity flickered in the wound, and saber intent surged. The saber Qi surged wildly in his chest, causing the cultivator in azure clothes immense pain.
The other eight people were only startled awake after Leng Yue's Charm Technique for a second. Just as they were about to make a move, they discovered a cool breeze blowing on them.
Suddenly, a saber light appeared, and a surging killing intent burst forth.
That killing intent was boundless, like a surging flood or a surging sea. The few of them had never felt such a vast killing intent before. In that instant, their bodies seemed to lose the ability to move. Before he could pull out the weapon in his hand, a stream of blood spurted out from his neck, and his head flew into the air.
One second was sufficient for Xiao Chen to do many things.
When the cultivator in azure clothes in the air felt Xiao Chen's surging killing intent and horrifying strength, he felt incredibly shocked. All the more, he did not expect Xiao Chen to be so decisive, killing him without saying a word.
"You are ruthless. If you have the guts, don't return to the Divine Dragon Warship. I will make it so that you will never be able to leave the Boundless Sea."
"Bang!" The nine figures merged back into one. Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and watched the cultivator in azure clothes disappear into the distance. He did not give chase.
"Should we give chase?" Leng Yue asked.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "There is no need. He is just a profligate son of a rich family. There is no need to bother with him."
After cultivating on Nirvana Island for the first half of the year, Xiao Chen's cultivation had already risen to peak Superior Grade Martial King. He only needed six more Spirit Gathering Pearls to break through to half-step Martial Monarch.
Xiao Chen had already opened his sea of consciousness long ago. Once he became a half-step Martial Monarch, he would not need to fear anyone under Martial Monarch.
Xiao Chen did not fear such a greedy profligate son of a rich family. He could use miraculous Medicinal Pills and natural treasures to raise his cultivation. However, without tempering, what was the use of that?
The two of them mounted a Royal Blood Horse each and galloped forward.
The Royal Blood Horse was not as fast as a cultivator. However, it had great stamina. Without resting, it could travel day and night. It was very suitable for traveling long distances.
The two traveled day and night. After four days, the three outpost islets appeared before their eyes. This place was already at the edge of the Battlefield. There were many cultivators coming and going.
Xiao Chen and Leng Yue, who rode on the Royal Blood Horse, stood out from the many cultivators walking on the surface of the sea. They attracted many gazes.
This was especially so for Leng Yue. Although she wore a fur coat and a veil, her exquisite figure, her exposed eyes, and her naturally bewitching aura made it clear that she was a beauty with one look.
The veil added a sense of mystery to Leng Yue's aura. Everyone wanted to know what she looked like when she removed the veil.
"Xiu!"
Suddenly, four figures flew out from the outpost islets. These four people wore robes of four colors — green, yellow, white, and blue. They were the same as the Northern Sea's Four Young Masters. They were all peak Small Perfection half-step Martial Monarchs.
The four landed on the water and blocked Xiao Chen's path. The cultivator in green that Xiao Chen met a few days ago smiled coldly and said, "I said it before. If you dare to return to the Divine Dragon Warship, I will make it so that you will never be able to leave the Boundless Sea."
"Fourth Brother, this is the person you were talking about. He is not even a half-step Martial Monarch, yet he managed to injure you to such an extent," the cultivator in white on the left said.
The cultivator in green said angrily, "I was careless. I already said I was careless. The girl beside him is very strange. Don't look at her eyes."
