Xiao Chen raised his head and looked calmly at the other party. Then, he grasped something with his right hand and said, "Sir, have you heard of this saying before? It is better to bully an old man than to offend a young man. The river flows east for thirty years, then west for thirty years. Today, you rely on your age and cultivation to suppress me with numbers. Have you ever thought about your future? "
The expressions of the three old men could not help but freeze. Unexpectedly, after Xiao Chen saw the three of them, he did not panic. Instead, he remained strangely calm and said such words.
The white-clad old man snorted coldly and said, "Junior, you overestimate yourself. You might scare most people. This old man is an inner sect elder of the Heaven and Earth Sect. Emperor Wu is in the sect. Even if you become Emperor Wu in the future, what can you do to me?!"
"Cut the crap. Hand over the Dragon's Gate's warship and your cloak, and I'll let you live. Otherwise, you can forget about leaving today."
Xiao Chen's gaze turned cold. He raised his head and said, "In that case, I will stand here. Let's see how you will not let me live."
Xiao Chen's aura clashed fearlessly. The aura of an overlord allowed Xiao Chen to fight one against three without any pressure.
The clash of auras created intense shockwaves that howled endlessly in the air. The wind howled deafeningly.
When the white-clad old man saw the fearless Xiao Chen's sharpness, he felt bewildered. He did not know what gave Xiao Chen the confidence to remain so calm at this moment. "You are just bluffing.
"You're just bluffing. Let's see how long you can keep up the act."
The white-clad old man steeled himself. He did not think that with three Superior Grade Martial Sages here, they could not do anything to an insignificant Inferior Grade Martial Sage. That would be a huge joke.
The white-clad old man's figure wavered, and two beams of light — one black and one white — flickered around him. Then, he charged at Xiao Chen as fast as a meteor.
This was the moment he had been waiting for!
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and released his tightly clenched right hand. Many Superior Grade Astral Cores gave off dazzling light like flowers scattering in the sky, encasing him.
Bang!
The twenty Superior Grade Astral Cores gave off a bright light. When Xiao Chen infused his energy into them, they exploded.
The energy contained in one Inferior Grade Astral Core could injure an Inferior Grade Martial Sage. The might of fifty Superior Grade Astral Cores exploding together was easy to imagine.
Intense explosions blended together, shaking heaven and earth as surging shock waves swept out. The white-robed old man, who was charging forward at an extremely fast speed, was simply unable to dodge and was directly hit by the explosion.
The white-robed old man came quickly and left even faster. His clothes were completely blown away, leaving behind only a Saint-grade inner armor.
His hair was in a mess, and his skin was a bloody mess. It was an extremely horrifying sight. His scholarly temperament was completely gone.
A second ago, he was still in high spirits, but in the next second, he was in a sorry state. Although his internal and external injuries were not fatal, his combat power was reduced by at least fifty percent in a short period of time.
The other two old men were greatly startled. Clearly, they had not expected Xiao Chen to consume such a precious Superior Grade Astral Core in one go.
And it wasn't just one or two, it was a total of twenty.
"Whoosh!"
A light flashed. Right after the explosion ended, an electric light appeared under Xiao Chen's feet. His figure shot forward, and he kicked the white-robed old man, who had just landed, back one kilometer.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen sent a bona fide Superior Grade Martial Sage flying with a casual kick.
"After him!"
The two old men reacted and casually summoned out a Spirit Beast. Then, they carried the white-robed old man in the direction that Xiao Chen had taken, giving chase.
The white-robed old man coughed intensely a few times. Then, he changed into a new set of clothes. After recuperating for a long time, his injured face recovered somewhat.
"Old Bai, are you alright?" the ferocious-looking black-robed old man could not help asking.
The might of twenty Superior Grade Astral Cores exploding struck the black-robed old man. Just thinking about it made him tremble in fear. Fortunately, Old Bai wore a peak Sage Grade defensive inner armor.
Furthermore, Old Bai's physical body was already a Rank 2 Sage Body. Not to mention anyone else, even if it were the black-robed old man, it would be pretty good if he could still breathe.
Old Bai's expression turned sullen. He did not answer the old man's question. Instead, he took out the Heavenly Secret Divination Disk and looked at it. Then, he raised his head and said, "Turn around. This brat is really crafty. Unexpectedly, he circled around behind us.
"If I didn't have the Heavenly Secret Divination Plate, I would have really let that guy slip away."
The green-robed old man controlling the Spirit Beast waved his hand, and the huge bird he sat on spread its wings. A strong wind blew, scattering the white clouds. Then, the bird sped towards the spot of light on the Heavenly Secret Divination Disk.
This bird was called the White Roc. It possessed the bloodline of the legendary Kun Peng and could fly very fast. In the entire Heaven and Earth Sect, there were only two of them, one male and one female.
Xiao Chen executed the Thunder Dragon Steps to its limits. Using the Heavenly Sea Cloak's speed, he managed to leave the three far behind several times. However, when he slowed down, the other party immediately caught up.
This was extremely strange. Xiao Chen carefully checked his body and did not find anything that had been tampered with.
Left with no choice, he asked Ao Jiao, "Ao Jiao, are there any Secret Treasures that can figure out the position of others or leave a mark on you that you cannot shake off?"
Ao Jiao quickly answered, "There are many. I know a few: the Divine Calculation and Manipulation, the Ask Not Mirror, the Eight Trigrams Derivation Diagram, the Heavenly Secret Divination Disk …"
Xiao Chen could not help but stop. When he saw the black spot appear behind him again, he could not help but frown. He said, "It looks like I really fell for it. No wonder I felt something was wrong at the Flourishing Heaven Pavilion."
"Actually, there is no need to worry. You have the Haotian Martial Emperor's will clone. You can instantly kill these people," Ao Jiao said without much concern.
Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I can't. I can only use the Martial Emperor's will clone in desperate situations. Right now, I am still far from it. They are just Superior Grade Martial Sages. I already used twenty Superior Grade Astral Cores. How can I waste the will clone? "
"What do you plan to do then? There is no way to run."
"That might not be the case!" Xiao Chen looked up at the clear sky and summoned out the Dragon's Gate's warship, making it quickly grow larger. He said, "Let's go to the Starry Heavens and head directly to the Haotian Star. I don't believe that three Superior Grade Martial Sages will dare to go through the barrier of the sky with me."
Xiao Chen gently leaped up and landed on the deck of the Dragon's Gate's warship. Then, he quickly went into the hold and placed eighteen Inferior Grade Astral Cores in the grooves of the formation.
A light flickered, and the entire warship immediately came to life. It was like a huge, sleeping dragon awakening from a dream, filled with boundless energy.
With his Spiritual Sense, Xiao Chen could feel every part of the warship. It was like this warship was his incarnation. With a thought, he could control it as he pleased.
Unfortunately, he had only refined it for one day and could not bring out much of its combat prowess. Otherwise, with this warship, Xiao Chen would be able to easily kill off the pursuers.
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen appeared on the deck and controlled the warship to fly up continuously, ten kilometers to twenty kilometers, heading for the formless barrier of the sky.
"Oh no! This fellow is going to use the Dragon's Gate's warship to go through the barrier of the sky!"
The ferocious-looking old man on the White Roc said with an unsightly expression. It looked like Xiao Chen was about to catch up, but he soared higher and higher.
Without a King Grade warship, one would have to be a grandmaster-level Martial Sage to break through the barrier of the sky.
The white-robed old man, who held the Heavenly Secret Divination Disk in his hand, showed an uncertain expression. As he watched the Dragon's Gate's warship slowly break through the barrier of the sky, he showed a conflicted expression.
The three bona fide Superior Grade Martial Sages personally made a move. In the end, not only did they fail to catch up to Xiao Chen, but they even got tricked by him. Without half a year of recuperation, they would not be able to recover to their peak.
"I planted a strand of the heavens in him. I don't believe that he will never return to the Kunlun Realm," the white-robed old man said hatefully when he saw that he could no longer catch up to Xiao Chen.
The Dragon's Gate's warship passed through the barrier of the sky. When the white-robed old man saw that he could no longer catch up to Xiao Chen, he could not help but say this hatefully.
A faint azure barrier encased the Dragon's Gate's warship, preventing the chaotic flows of space in the starry heavens from invading.
