The chaos that the Sovereign Martial Emperors purposely created looked like child's play. However, their cruelty was startling. The tragic slaughter and the disappearance of one life after another caused everyone to face the grim reality.
This was not some experiential training they had discussed. Instead, it was a true massacre. One had to put in their all. Otherwise, they might just die.
Only the strongest survivors could face the future Demonic God Blood Sacrifice. If they did not be more ruthless to themselves now, they would not be able to accept a one-sided massacre when the time came.
Huangpu Feng pulled out the small blue flags on the map and replaced them with the black flags representing the Corpse God Palace. Then, he sighed and said, "The first and second lines of defense are already broken. Now, only the last three lines of defense remain."
"Reporting! Feng Xingsheng received orders from the Bushin Palace to bring thirty Martial Sages of the Full Moon Pavilion to provide reinforcements. "
"Reporting! Ximen Bao received orders from the Bushin Palace to bring twenty Martial Sages of the Ximen Clan to provide reinforcements. "
"Reporting! Niu Deng received orders from the Bushin Palace to bring thirty Martial Sages of the ten great battle realms to provide reinforcements. "
"Reporting! Hua Dao received orders from the Bushin Palace to bring twenty Martial Sages of the Thousand Mystery Sect to provide reinforcements. "
"Reporting! Bai Wuxue received orders from the Bushin Palace to bring forty Martial Sages of the Extreme Yin Sect to provide reinforcements. "
Just as Huangpu Feng frowned in worry, the cultivators outside came in with reports. When Huangpu Feng heard them, he could not help but rejoice. Reinforcements had finally arrived.
Based on the quality of these reinforcements, the various Nine Ranks of the Great Families had indeed put in a lot of effort. Most of the Martial Sages that their sects had not sent to the Starry Heaven Silver Lake had come.
However, there seemed to be one sect that had not come yet — the Haotian Sect. After thinking about it, Huangpu Feng did not place much hope on them.
The Haotian Sect had once had two people soak in the Heavenly Dew Divine Spring. Of them, Xiao Chen had absorbed a lot of the essence of the divine spring. The two people's blood had refined the Heavenly Dew Divine Spring Pill, which far surpassed the other sects', causing the Haotian Sect's strength to soar.
Now that the great chaos had started, the elite Martial Sages of the Haotian Sect were all sent to the Starry Heaven Silver Lake. Compared to the other Nine Ranks of the Great Families, they would not be able to bring many Martial Sages. Furthermore, most of them would be Inferior Grade Martial Sages.
Feng Xingsheng, Ximen Bao, Bai Wuxue, and the others chatted in the plaza outside the palace. Several older-generation Martial Sages with strong auras stood behind them. There were very few younger-generation Martial Sages.
Among them, there was no lack of Medial Grade Martial Sages. The five people leading them were incredibly strong, all possessing the combat prowess of a Superior Grade Martial Sage.
Amid the great chaos, these absolute geniuses all improved at lightning speed. Bai Wuxue's Divine Energy was the most horrifying. He was the only one among the six who had comprehended a will. He was also the only demonic genius who had been to the Starry Sky Silver Lake.
"By the way, Brother Bai, weren't you at the Starry Sky Silver Lake? Why do you have the time to come to this resource planet to provide support? Isn't it a waste of your talent? "
Ximen Bao said somewhat respectfully to Bai Wuxue. Of course, given Bai Wuxue's current strength, he was indeed worthy of such compliments.
Feng Xingsheng and the others also looked over curiously. The battles at the Starry Sky Silver Lake were the most intense and dangerous. However, the increase in strength there was also the fastest.
Bai Wuxue did not hide anything. He smiled and said, "I am ashamed to say this. One month ago, I was severely injured by a genius of the newly born ancient Treant Race. Fortunately, I managed to survive.
"After I recuperated, I prepared to rush to the Starry Sky Silver Lake again. However, I was informed that a Starry Heaven Storm was approaching. Soon, the Starry Sky Silver Lake will enter a truce. Coincidentally, I received an order from Bushin Palace to send reinforcements, so the sect sent me to this Dragon Wood Star. "
Bai Wuxue's words sounded humble. However, when the others saw his strength, they did not dare to underestimate him. Even if they did not use their wills, they would not be a match for Bai Wuxue. It looked like Bai Wuxue had indeed gained a lot in the Starry Sky Silver Lake.
Niu Deng said with some disbelief, "Are those geniuses of the newly born ancient races really that strong?"
Bai Wuxue's expression turned grave. With some lingering fear in his heart, he said, "They are very strong, not much weaker than Di Wuque. One or two of them might even be on par with Di Wuque. If not for their small population, the Kunlun Continent might not be dominated by five major races. "
Ximen Bao took over the conversation and said, "No matter what, it looks like Brother Bai gained a lot in the Starry Sky Silver Lake. This time, when we received the order to send reinforcements, Brother Bai will definitely take the lead and obtain the most military merits. Who knows, you might even be conferred a marquis at Bushin Palace. "
This was what Bai Wuxue was thinking in his heart. However, he still put on a humble expression.
Feng Xingsheng felt it was strange. He said, "I wonder what kind of people the Haotian Sect will send over. I heard that their elites are all at the Starry Sky Silver Lake."
Bai Wuxue nodded and said, "The Haotian Sect is in the limelight at the Starry Sky Silver Lake this time. Aside from Shui Lingling, who is as strong as before, there are also two new talents. One is called Yue Chenxi, and the other is called Gong Yangyu. Their growth speed is extremely terrifying. "
"In that case, it looks like they will not be able to send out any decent people this time. They will only be able to go through the motions and will not be able to obtain many military merits. I wonder who will be leading them this time."
"It will probably be one of the older generations of the sect."
As the group chatted, a group of Martial Sages wearing Haotian Sect identity medallions slowly descended to the plaza at the summit of the mountain.
"The Haotian Sect's people are here. Indeed, they are all Inferior Grade Martial Sages." When Bai Wuxue and the others felt the aura of this group of people, they all had an expression of anticipation.
However, when they saw the familiar face of the person leading the group, they were all shocked. They had not expected this at all.
"Xiao Chen! Unexpectedly, it is him! "
Xiao Chen put away the Dragon's Gate's warship and descended to the summit with the juniors. He had not expected the leaders of the various sects to be familiar people.
Smiling gently, Xiao Chen stepped forward and sized up Bai Wuxue and the others. He said, "Everyone, it has been a long time since we last met."
Three of these people had deep grudges with Xiao Chen. Niu Deng and Ximen Bao once worked together but could not defeat Xiao Chen, ruthlessly trampling on them.
Bai Wuxue's situation went without saying. He was once one of the seven giants of the Tianwu Domain. However, he had been defeated in front of all the outstanding talents of the world, causing his reputation to plummet.
As for the Thousand Mystery Sect's Hua Dao, although he did not have any grudges with Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen had smacked his fiancée's nose until it became crooked. Thus, Hua Dao had been suppressing his anger.
The only one who did not have any grudges with Xiao Chen was the Full Moon Pavilion's Feng Xingsheng. However, ever since Xiao Chen appeared, Feng Xingsheng no longer dared to call himself the top bladesman of the eighteen southern provinces.
Xiao Chen did not know what Feng Xingsheng was thinking. Strictly speaking, he did not have any friendship with these five people.
Inferior Grade Martial Sage?
When Bai Wuxue, Niu Deng, and Ximen Bao felt Xiao Chen's aura, they exchanged strange glances. They could not help feeling excited. It looked like the news of Xiao Chen being trapped for two years might be true.
Otherwise, how could Xiao Chen's cultivation not have improved at all? After all, in this age, if one did not improve for one year, one would be left far behind.
Of the three, Niu Deng had the lowest cultivation. However, he was already a Medial Grade Martial Sage. Bai Wuxue was even more incredible, already a peak Medial Grade Martial Sage. His combat prowess far surpassed that of a regular Superior Grade Martial Sage.
"Brother Xiao Chen, it has really been a long time." The three transmitted their voices and discussed for a while. After that, they decided to send Ximen Bao out to test Xiao Chen.
Ximen Bao strode forward with a warm expression. He stretched out his hand, and strands of Law Energy gathered in his hand. Then, he gently patted Xiao Chen's shoulder. Those who did not know would think that the two were good friends who had not seen each other for many years.
Xiao Chen's expression remained the same. He did not think much of it. He stretched out his hand and patted Ximen Bao's shoulder as well.
It was a simple probing, but it was as intense as a mountain torrent. Both sides used their most powerful methods.
Ximen Bao turned the five-hundred-odd Heavenly Sage Laws in his body into the image of a Heavenly Tiger. Then, he used a secret technique to merge them together, forming the true Heavenly Tiger Energy.
Even an indestructible iron man would shatter with a gentle pat from Ximen Bao.
However, Xiao Chen burned his one thousand five hundred tons of Vital Qi. The pure energy surged through his body like a Heaven Dragon soaring. His Vital Qi immediately reached two thousand five hundred tons of Vital Qi — half a Dragon Force.
The two placed their hands on each other's shoulders at the same time. Xiao Chen's strong Rank 3 Sage Body was as unmoving as a mountain, standing tall. However, Ximen Bao fell to one knee with a 'plop.' His complexion was pale and bloodless.
"It has been two years. Brother Ximen, there is no need to be so polite."
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and raised his hand. Ximen Bao, who was doing his best to resist, felt his shoulder loosen. He could no longer control the force of his charge, and he flew back.
Ximen Bao landed in a hurry. Just as he was about to say something, his left leg, which Xiao Chen had patted on his shoulder, went limp, and he fell to the ground in a sorry state.
When Niu Deng saw this scene, he could not help rejoicing. Earlier, he had wanted to take the lead, but Ximen Bao snatched it away. Fortunately, he had not fought over it. Otherwise, he would be the one embarrassing himself in front of everyone.
Ximen Bao checked and found that there were no major problems. However, Xiao Chen's earlier attack had blocked the Qi and blood in his knees. When he landed in a hurry, he lost his balance and naturally fell over.
Just as Ximen Bao was about to get angry, Bai Wuxue stopped him. Bai Wuxue stepped forward. His handsome face appeared calm and at ease. He smiled and said, "Brother Xiao, after not seeing you for two years, you are still as elegant as before. Would you be willing to give me some pointers again?"
Bai Wuxue's eyes filled with boundless confidence as he looked at Xiao Chen, quietly waiting for Xiao Chen's answer. After the battle at the Starry Heaven Silver Lake, Bai Wuxue's strength was no longer the same as before. Furthermore, Xiao Chen was now only an Inferior Grade Martial Sage. He could definitely suppress Xiao Chen.
Bai Wuxue still remembered the grievance from back then. If he did not take revenge now, when would he?
"Stop! A great enemy is before us, and you are still fighting among yourselves. What a scandal! If you want to fight for superiority, go and fight for military merits if you are capable. What is the point of being arrogant here? "
Huangpu Feng said furiously as he led a group of strong Martial Sages out of the palace in a grandiose manner. Huangpu Feng was only a Superior Grade Martial Sage. However, he held a high position in the Bushin Palace, conferred the title of Marquis. His status was even higher than theirs.
Bai Wuxue was not willing to offend Huangpu Feng. He snorted coldly and turned around.
Xiao Chen was happy and relaxed, ignoring Bai Wuxue. Two years ago, he had already treated Bai Wuxue like air. Now, why would he care about him? It was like an ant teasing an elephant. The ant was very pleased with himself, not knowing what he was doing. This was extremely laughable.
