In the future, as Wang Cheng watched Xiao Chen grow stronger, he would feel even more dissatisfied with him. This was especially so after he was humiliated by Xiao Chen earlier, which made his resentment even more intense.
It would be best if he died at the other party's hands, ending all troubles, Wang Cheng cursed viciously.
Shui Lingling asked worriedly, "Xiao Chen, have you thought it through?"
Xiao Chen did not turn his head. He said indifferently, "Many thanks for First Senior Sister's concern. I know my limits."
Shen Tu held a long sword in his hand and strode forward. He laughed and said, "You do have some courage. However, you are ultimately just a joke. Today, I will let you know that some words that you speak carelessly can lead to death."
The others scattered, leaving a spacious area for Xiao Chen and Shen Tu to fight.
The vast Vital Qi in Xiao Chen's body burned, and his blood surged like a gushing river. Xiao Chen's physical body, which was close to a Sage Body, started circulating quietly.
Xiao Chen was like a flood dragon in hibernation, possessing boundless might, waiting for the moment to erupt.
Shen Tu looked at his opponent with a relaxed expression. He had already comprehended fifty percent of the Heaven Ranked Martial Technique that he grasped. Furthermore, his cultivation was one cultivation grade higher than his opponent's.
The Extreme Yin Sect had abundant resources and many great teachers. Shen Tu had climbed to where he was today step by step. His strength was not exaggerated at all.
With such a huge advantage, Shen Tu did not believe that there was a reason for him to lose.
"I'll play with him first. Then, I'll use my Heaven Ranked Martial Technique on the tenth move and destroy him, crushing all his hopes."
Not wanting to defeat Xiao Chen immediately, Shen Tu decided to play with his opponent slowly. Perhaps his First Senior Brother could give him more benefits.
After observing Xiao Chen's aura, Shen Tu could not see anything extraordinary about it. He lost his patience and used his Movement Technique to charge over.
Shen Tu's figure slowly grew larger in Xiao Chen's eyes as he approached.
Xiao Chen remained silent, not moving at all. He only continuously burned his Vital Qi, forming a fiery clump of energy in his dantian.
That was the essence of energy formed after burning his Vital Qi. The clump of energy trembled continuously, trying to struggle free.
Xiao Chen guarded his mind, not letting it struggle free. All he did was burn his Vital Qi and accumulate power.
The blood in his body surged, becoming more and more intense. His Qi and blood were exuberant to the extreme, and his body was like a high-temperature furnace that could explode at any moment.
One hundred meters, seventy meters, fifty meters …
The distance between Shen Tu and Xiao Chen shrank rapidly. The tip of Shen Tu's sword rose and a gust of wind blew. It gently lifted the hair in front of Xiao Chen's forehead, revealing his delicate and handsome facial features.
After Shen Tu imprinted Xiao Chen's face deeply in his mind, he smiled cruelly. With a turn of his sword, he arrived twenty meters in front of Xiao Chen.
That's enough, Xiao Chen called out softly in his heart. His calm eyes suddenly erupted with a frightening light.
The trace of Monarch bloodline hidden in his blood was instantly activated. That trace of the ancient sovereign's aura burst forth. It was like a vast mountain or a vast ocean, vast and boundless, heavy and distant.
Shen Tu, who had not felt any pressure all this while, suddenly felt a heavy mountain pressing down on his shoulders. His expression changed slightly, and his movements immediately slowed.
"Burning the Heavens!"
Xiao Chen seized this opportunity and shouted. The energy that he had been suppressing for a long time turned into azure smoke at the Tianmen Acupoint on his head and rushed into the sky, burning away large patches of white clouds.
The ancient sovereign's aura that suddenly appeared lasted less than a second before Shen Tu broke free. However, this one second was enough to change the situation.
The azure dragon claw tore through the sky and clenched into a fist. Then, it descended from the sky like a meteor.
Shen Tu turned pale with fright. He quickly held his sword across his chest and circulated his Quintessence to defend. However, in his haste, he did not even gather fifty percent of his Quintessence.
As for Xiao Chen's one million eight hundred thousand kilograms of force, after accumulating it, he erupted with a hundred and twenty percent of its might.
When comparing the two, at this moment, Xiao Chen held the absolute advantage in strength.
"Bang!"
A loud explosion resounded, and the sword in Shen Tu's hand broke with a 'ka ca' sound. The dragon fist struck his protective Quintessence. The force seeped in and broke Shen Tu's ribs, severely injuring his internal organs.
Shen Tu flew back and vomited a large mouthful of blood. The light of his protective Quintessence faded.
A murderous intent flashed in Shen Tu's eyes as a Blue Dragon image shot out from under his feet, carrying Xiao Chen into the air. A vast ocean appeared behind him, and nine hundred and ninety-nine pillars of water shot into the sky.
"Dragon Subduing Slash, Blue Dragon Goes to Sea!"
Xiao Chen did not show any expression on his face. The dragon-shaped saber light covered in auspicious clouds swept out with a surging Dragon Might.
Under the attack of the Heaven Burning Fist, Shen Tu's aura plummeted. He was severely injured. He could not block this Heaven Ranked Martial Technique that followed closely behind.
All this happened in an instant. There was not even a chance for anyone to save Shen Tu. Bai Wuxue's expression changed drastically as he roared, "Stop!"
Bai Wuxue's voice was like thunder, inspiring fear in everyone. Clearly, he was already angered to the extreme.
However, Xiao Chen ignored him. The Blue Dragon Goes to Sea continued to chop down ferociously. Blood spurted out, and Shen Tu's head separated from his body. The eyes of the head flying in the air widened. Even in death, it did not dare to believe what had happened.
The others were all dumbfounded as well. They had not expected such a scene.
There were some things that could lead to death if one spoke carelessly. This was what Shen Tu had said earlier. Now, someone had indeed died. However, the one who died was Shen Tu himself and not Xiao Chen.
The person that Shen Tu had thought was just a joke had killed him in two moves.
No matter how you humiliate me, scold me, say a thousand words or a sharp tongue. With the saber in hand, if I am unhappy, I will just kill you. Why would I bother speaking any nonsense with you?
The faces of the Extreme Yin Sect disciples turned pale. They could not believe that Shen Tu had been killed just like that.
When Bai Wuxue saw the flying head, he was slightly stunned. Then, rage burned in his chest. He said coldly, "How dare you kill my Extreme Yin Sect's true inheritors? You must be tired of living."
"Great Icy Cold Hand!"
In his rage, Bai Wuxue brought out the strength of a half-Sage without holding anything back. A huge palm made of icy Quintessence instantly formed in the air and appeared in front of Xiao Chen.
This palm carried a force that could shatter mountains and tear the ground apart as it smashed towards Xiao Chen.
"Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram!"
Xiao Chen's face sank, and two beams of light — one purple and one white — flew out of his eyes. They continuously circled around in the air, forming a beautiful Taiji diagram.
Yinyang, the four divisions, the innate eight trigrams, and many other mysterious phenomena appeared. The Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram glowed with a golden light, radiating a boundless radiance.
The horrifying icy cold hand smashed into the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram. A loud explosion resounded, shaking space and the ground. "Ka ca!
Ka ca! "
Cracks appeared in the golden Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram. Then, it shattered and turned back into two beams of fiery light that returned to Xiao Chen's eyes.
Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness surged, and he felt somewhat dizzy. However, he managed to block Bai Wuxue's full-power strike without suffering any injuries.
"Xiu!"
When Bai Wuxue saw Xiao Chen block his palm strike, a trace of shock appeared in his eyes. Just as he was about to continue, he saw an arrow flying over like a meteor.
The arrow tore through the air, leaving behind a long, flaming tail. Bai Wuxue felt a dangerous aura, and his figure flashed, dodging this extremely fast arrow.
"Bang!"
The arrow exploded in the air, and a fiery shock wave surged out in all directions. The other Extreme Yin Sect disciples who could not dodge in time were all blasted into the air.
Shui Lingling drew back the bowstring. She drew the purple bow until it looked like a full moon as she pointed it at Bai Wuxue.
"Bai Wuxue, what are you trying to do? Sabers and swords have no eyes. Since this is a competition, death is inevitable. If Xiao Chen loses, Shen Tu will not spare Xiao Chen's life. "
Bai Wuxue stood in the air with a cold expression. He looked at the bow in Shui Lingling's hand with some fear.
Bai Wuxue had lost a true inheritor with a bright future for no reason. When he saw Xiao Chen land on the ground, he hated that he could not kill him on the spot.
However, with Shui Lingling here, that was impossible.
Bai Wuxue waved his sleeves heavily and gave Xiao Chen a deep look. Then, he led the remaining Extreme Yin Sect disciples away with large strides.
Shui Lingling heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Bai Wuxue did not force his way through. Otherwise, both sides would end up injured, and no one would have a good ending.
"Junior Brother Xiao, are you alright?"
Shui Lingling asked Xiao Chen as she placed the ancient purple bow on her back.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I'm fine. I am not severely injured."
Hu Hai asked out of curiosity, "May I ask what Martial Technique that Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram was? How come I have never heard of it before?"
That Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram perfectly merged the two attributes of Yin and Yang, bringing out its might.
It allowed Xiao Chen, a Medial Grade Martial Monarch, to block Bai Wuxue's full-powered strike unscathed. It was hard not to be curious.
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Yes, I created that myself."
When the others heard this, doubt flashed in their eyes. They did not think that Xiao Chen could create such a profound Martial Technique. They just took it as an excuse.
However, cultivators always had their own secrets. Hu Hai was purely curious and did not intend to pursue the matter.
Wang Cheng looked at the ground, at Shen Tu, who had been chopped in half at the waist. Then, he looked at Xiao Chen again. A hard-to-detect fear appeared in the depths of his eyes.
Xiao Chen had not expected this fellow to be so decisive, killing a true inheritor of the Extreme Yin Sect just like that.
I stopped him from coming to the Savage Battlefield. If he holds a grudge and rises up, I will not have a good time in the future.
Wang Cheng sized up Xiao Chen and lowered his head. A strange light flickered in his eyes, appearing extremely complicated.
Bai Wuxue's appearance was only a small interlude to the advancing group; it did not have much of an impact on them.
Under Shui Lingling's lead, the group continued heading for the Dragon Burial Mound. They passed through deserts, desolate forests, and all sorts of dangers.
The group experienced the vastness of the Savage Battlefield for themselves. When they heard Shui Lingling say that the place they had been to was just the tip of the iceberg, they felt a headache coming on.
However, they also gained a lot. The rare Spirit Herbs and Medicinal Fruits that were hard to find in the outside world could be found everywhere here.
Sometimes, if they were lucky, they might even find a Spirit Herb worth a million Spirit Stones in a small crack that no one noticed.
Three days later, a desolate plain appeared before the group. Five peaks stood in the middle of the plain. The peaks formed a ring around an azure palace.
Compared to the other five peaks, the one in front of the group was clearly taller. It was like someone had chopped it in half.
