Xiao Chen looked at the corresponding spots on the path and discovered that there were no good spots. However, he could make do with it. After thinking for a while, he walked over.
"Where did this junior come from? Don't you know the rules? Do you think that place is something you can do? "A black-clothed old man angrily rebuked.
Another old man continued the conversation and said in an indifferent tone, "Just stand there. Only when one of us succeeds in comprehending it can you take over that person's position. This is the rule of the Thunder Emperor Valley."
Xiao Chen's body trembled slightly. He said indifferently, "Does it mean that no one has comprehended it? Do I have to keep standing there?"
The black-clad old man who spoke first closed his eyes and did not look at Xiao Chen. He said, "That's right. You just have to wait for a year or so."
Wait for a year or so? What kind of joke is this? How could Xiao Chen have that much time? Xiao Chen continued walking forward without stopping.
The black-clad old man suddenly opened his eyes, and a bright light burst out from them. He said in a cold voice, "Take another step and you will never be able to leave."
"Spring Thunder Chop!"
Suddenly, countless snowflakes drifted down, and thunder roared.
Xiao Chen drew his Lunar Shadow Saber at lightning speed. The power of the world spread out from the saber's edge, turning into a spring breeze drifting towards the black-clad old man.
"You overestimate yourself."
The black-clad old man smiled coldly at first, not caring. However, when the spring breeze arrived, the power of the cycle of seasons arrived, and a huge pressure pressed down.
The black-clad old man was horrified to discover that he could not stand up under this soft spring breeze.
"Bang!"
When the spring breeze struck the black-clad old man, the power of the world exploded out. The old man vomited a mouthful of blood and got knocked down. When he landed in the valley, he kicked up a few splashes.
"Xiu!"
At the peak of the mountain, all the old men who were in deep thought opened their eyes. They looked at the expressionless white-robed bladesman holding the saber in shock.
Ignoring the shock in these people's eyes, Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and headed for the black-clad old man's position.
"Young man, don't be too arrogant. Being so ruthless at such a young age, is this how you treat your seniors?"
A grey-robed, short-haired old man with wrinkles all over his face said in a deep voice.
"You have no sense of propriety. We waited for several months and only sat down when there was an empty seat. Youngsters these days don't follow the rules at all."
"You can't take this seat. Rules are rules."
"That's right. If you sit down, does that mean that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can sit down in the future? Where would we put our faces?"
The ten-odd half-step Martial Monarch old men in Thunder King Valley started berating him.
The old men here were all famous overlords of their own regions, and they were revered wherever they went. They had never seen such a young man who did not put them in his eyes. Naturally, they did not like Xiao Chen.
Simply put, these old men were taking advantage of their seniority. They believed that a junior like Xiao Chen was not qualified to sit with them.
Xiao Chen looked coldly at this group of old men. He found it funny. Did they really think that Thunder King Valley belonged to them? The moment they opened their mouths, they wanted Xiao Chen to wait for a year and a half. Where did their arrogance come from?
If a Martial Monarch expert were here, it would have been fine. However, this was a group of people who could not even break through to half-step Martial Monarch. What qualifications did they have to say such things to him?
There was a principle of first come, first served. However, Xiao Chen was not going to take advantage of them and comprehend his own. Secondly, he was not going to snatch their place. Why was there a need to be so forceful?
Xiao Chen was pressed for time. He could only remain here for half a month at most. There was no need to waste time with these people.
When people respect you, I will return it tenfold. However, you are taking advantage of your seniority, twisting words and forcing logic. There is no need for me to give you face. Who cares if you are a senior or an expert? If you are not strong enough, don't brag.
When the three old men saw that Xiao Chen did not stop and continued walking forward, anger appeared on their faces. They immediately stood up.
They locked their auras on Xiao Chen, revealing a sharp light in their eyes. The Essence in their bodies surged, and their clothes and hair fluttered continuously.
"You really do not know the immensity of heaven and earth. Today, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your elders. I will show you how to respect your seniors."
"Xiu!
Xiu! Xiu! "The three old men leaped up and with a flip of their hands, a sword appeared in each of their hands. A cold light flickered on their weapons and electricity leaped around them. Clearly, they were experts who comprehended the state of thunder.
A surging Essence spread out from their swords. Wind and thunder roared, and lightning flickered in the sky.
When the three old men knew that Xiao Chen had defeated the black-clad old man with one saber strike, they did not dare to be careless. They used their full power in this move, wanting to severely injure Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen drew the pitch-black Lunar Shadow Saber and brought out the Great Perfection state of thunder. He laughed loudly and said, "If you want to make a move, then make a move. There is no need to find such a dignified reason. I, Xiao Chen, will receive it."
"Boom!
Boom! Boom! "As Xiao Chen's state of thunder spread out, the immortal will of thunder that had disappeared for a long time in the sky unexpectedly reappeared.
Thunder roared continuously. This endless will of thunder seemed to be drawn over by Xiao Chen's Saber Technique.
"Ten thousand horses galloped, the wind and clouds moved. This saber strike roared like thunder!"
Xiao Chen shouted and did not dodge. He used the inextinguishable saber intent to display its sharpness, executing the final move of the Rushing Thunder Saber Technique.
A huge whirlpool appeared in the churning thunderclouds in the sky. A cultivator riding a golden lightning warhorse and holding a golden lightning spear galloped out of the whirlpool.
The warhorse galloped in the air, and thunder roared continuously. The vast state of thunder immediately suppressed the states of the three old men.
"What's going on? Why is this fellow's state of thunder even stronger than ours? He actually comprehended saber intent," the three old men exclaimed in horror.
"Bang!"
Carrying a boundless power of lightning, the lightning knight swept his spear horizontally, shattering the joint attack of the three of them.
The sharpness of the lightning knight did not diminish. Instead, it contained a saber intent. The three old men had not even comprehended sword intent. Their state of thunder was not comparable to Xiao Chen's, and their Essence was not as vast and pure as Xiao Chen's.
The lightning knight gently knocked the three old men into the gorge and into the water.
There were merchant ships passing by the gorge all year round. Earlier, when a black-robed old man fell into the water, it did not attract much attention. Now, another three old men fell into the gorge.
Finally, there was a commotion. The cultivators of the ten-odd merchant ships all gathered on the deck. They looked up, wanting to know what was going on.
"How bold! Do they really think that we do not exist? Unexpectedly, they still dare to make a move!"
Xiao Chen attacked mercilessly again, knocking down three half-step Martial Monarchs. This infuriated the crowd, and another five old men leaped out.
They soared into the air and glared angrily at Xiao Chen. Their auras soared as quickly as they prepared their strongest killing moves.
Xiao Chen said calmly, "You are old and disrespectful. You are not strong enough, yet you dare to take advantage of your seniority. All of you, get down!"
"Flowing Fire of the Seventh Month, Summer in the Sky, Blazing Fire Burns to Desolation!"
A fiery light leaped on the pitch-black Lunar Shadow Saber. Suddenly, it released a dazzling light, illuminating the dark clouds that covered Thunder King Valley. That flame was like a miniature sun.
Xiao Chen held the Lunar Shadow Saber and charged at the five old men without any fear. When he swung his saber, a light burst out, and a boundless flame surged out.
The five of them were still in the midst of preparing their killing moves, but just as they made their moves, they were completely incinerated by the oncoming flames, and the flames exploded.
The huge impact knocked the five out of the gorge.
The merchant ship below immediately saw five human-shaped fireballs fall from the summit. All sorts of miserable cries came from the fireballs, inspiring fear in the hearts of the cultivators on the deck.
"Another five people fell. Among them, there seems to be an elder of the Great Chu Nation's Flowing Fire Manor and the Great Tang Nation's Hundred Flower Manor's Vice Manor Lord."
"What in the world is happening up there? Who is so powerful, consecutively defeating the famous old men of the various nations?"
"This group of people has occupied Thunder King Valley for a long time. I have never heard of such a thing happening before."
The cultivators on the deck were bewildered as they discussed the situation.
However, they knew their limits and their own strength. No one dared to fly up to see what was happening. They could only make wild guesses.
"Attack together. This junior is too arrogant. Let's not talk about justice with him."
The remaining seven people could no longer sit still. Originally, they thought that Xiao Chen was just an ordinary genius cultivator. They had not expected that Xiao Chen, at such a young age, would soon become an unrivaled half-step Martial Monarch.
"How laughable. Just a bunch of stubborn old men bullying the juniors, using numbers to fight. How dare they talk about justice?"
Xiao Chen, who was in the air, laughed coldly. When he saw the seven people flying over, he brandished the saber in his hand, and a fine drizzle immediately fell.
The wind rustled, and the rain fell. A cool breeze blew, and the autumn waters swayed. A beautiful woman smiled faintly. I will give you a gentle saber strike. Do you dare to receive it?
The rain that filled the sky formed a line. This saber strike was extremely gentle. Before the seven people flying over could sense the danger, the strong force contained in the saber wind caused them to fly around chaotically.
Their clothes tore apart as they did their best to stabilize their bodies, trying to block this saber intent. However, it was to no avail.
The saber intent that could even split the sea had already rushed over. How could a group of half-step Martial Monarchs resist it?
The gentle saber intent entered their bodies, and the seven vomited a mouthful of blood. When the saber intent scattered, not a single piece of clothing remained on them. They fell into the gorge, naked, and fell into the water, not daring to float up again.
The eyes of the cultivators on the deck widened. It was like they had seen a ghost.
Unexpectedly, seven half-step Martial Monarchs were in such a sorry state. They could not even keep their clothes. Furthermore, they were all so old. Where were they supposed to hide their faces?
"Could … could it be that a Martial Monarch expert is here?"
"That's impossible. It is impossible for a Martial Monarch to be in Thunder King Gorge. That will of thunder would not allow a Martial Monarch to appear."
The people below guessed that a Martial Monarch was here. However, they were immediately refuted.
When all the merchant ships left Thunder King Gorge, they discovered that there was only a young figure standing at the summit.
This youth wore white robes and had a saber hanging at his waist. His clothes and hair fluttered in the wind as he looked calmly at the thunderclouds above.
"It's finally quiet."
Aside from Xiao Chen, there was no one else on the empty summit of Thunder King Gorge.
