However, Wei Hua was a descendant of a Sovereign Martial Emperor, after all. His strength would definitely not be weak.
If Xiao Chen won both bets on one resource star, he could reclaim both resource stars without a drop of blood. That would be a total of one million military merits.
Xiao Chen thought for a while. Then, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Wei Hua, I don't know if you really look down on me or pretending to look down on me. In any case, you are really nothing in my eyes. You will definitely lose this bet. Since you mentioned the grudges in the Sage Mark Monument, then …
"That's fine as well. In that case, let's settle this together. Kui Dou, come out as well. If the two of you can defeat me together, I will break off one of my arms. Even if I lose, you should hand over a resource star willingly. "
The moment Xiao Chen said that, the entire place erupted. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen wanted to challenge the descendants of two Sovereign Martial Emperors at the same time. In this great age, there was no lack of young demonic geniuses capable of shocking things.
However, the number of young demonic geniuses who dared to say such a thing could be counted on one's hand.
In the past, Xiao Chen could not be considered much. At most, he could trick the Corpse Race and the Ghost Race. Then, he used words to kick Di Wuque's leg. However, if he could do what he said today, there would definitely be a place for him, Xiao Chen.
In this age of geniuses, there would definitely be a place for him, Xiao Chen, to lead the times.
However, no matter how Xiao Chen thought about it, this did not seem possible. It was more likely that he would suffer a crushing defeat, becoming the laughingstock of the world, a negative example of arrogance and conceit.
"Xiao Chen, you are really bold. Since you want to die that much, I'll grant you your wish."
Kui Dou's main purpose in coming to Dragon Wood Star was to deal with Xiao Chen. Originally, when he saw Xiao Chen undergo a nirvanic rebirth, he thought that it would be hard to find another opportunity. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen jumped out on his own.
Xiao Chen wanted to fight one against two to settle the grudges in the Sage Mark Monument. This suited him.
Although Wei Hua did not like Kui Dou, he still felt that if the two worked together, their chances of victory would be much higher.
Long Fei waved his folding fan gently, and his figure slowly floated away. The starlight slowly dissipated, and in the blink of an eye, he retreated fifty kilometers.
After Kui Dou formally accepted the challenge, the various cultivators in the sky all became cautious. They all flew higher once again.
These three were not ordinary young demonic geniuses. They were strong, far stronger than regular Superior Grade Martial Sages. They also had great backgrounds. If they had not changed the location of this battle, they would not have been able to survive.
Without a doubt, the entire Black Patterned Island would be shattered by the shockwaves. It was best to flee further away first.
Xiao Chen, Kui Dou, and Wei Hua stood in a triangle in midair, not saying a word. Under the curtain of night, the entire Black Patterned Island was quiet. None of the three made the first move. They did not even release their auras.
The Neptune Headscarf on Xiao Chen's forehead emitted a chilly aura, which flowed around his body and calmed his heart.
Kui Dou and Wei Hua looked calm and collected on the surface. However, their hearts were in turmoil. Their minds were filled with all sorts of countermeasures, as well as some conflicting thoughts.
The two wanted to work together and make a move. However, they could not find any openings in Xiao Chen's defense, so they did not dare to rush forward. They could only wait anxiously.
Xiao Chen grasped the thoughts of the two. He smiled gently and said, "I gave you a chance, but you did not make a move. In that case, you can forget about getting another chance."
Xiao Chen's figure flashed, and he left behind an afterimage where he stood. Then, he turned into a bright and flawless saber light. The crisp sound of a treasured saber being unsheathed was exceptionally clear in the silent night. This was the prelude to this duel.
That saber light came from Xiao Chen's afterimage. Xiao Chen's true body was already faster than most people's eyes could see; no one could catch him.
Kui Dou felt a slight chill on his head. Before that bright saber light formed, he already sensed that Xiao Chen was charging at him.
In the time it took for a spark to fly, Kui Dou's body moved as well. The purest Vital Qi in his body surged out like a gushing river. When Kui Dou moved, his Vital Qi caused the surrounding air to tremble thousands of times.
The tremors overlapped, sounding like a clap of thunder. However, although this sound was startlingly loud, it could not drown out the melodious saber hum.
A bright saber light appeared before Kui Dou's eyes. He held his breath and focused, staring at the saber light. As long as Xiao Chen flew out, he would use half a Dragon Force to blast him apart.
Two thousand five hundred tons of force could even crush a body infused with Thousand Mountains Frost Iron, what more a body of flesh and blood?
"Roar!"
However, to Kui Dou's surprise, what leaped out of that bright saber light was not Xiao Chen but a dragon — a soaring Blue Dragon. It bared its fangs and brandished its claws. Its breath formed clouds, and azure scales covered its body. If this was not the legendary Blue Dragon, what was it?
"How can this be?!"
Kui Dou cursed in his heart. He could not believe the scene before him. After all, he had fought in the Starry Heaven Silver Lake for two years. At this critical moment, Kui Dou did not lose his composure. He shouted a war cry and punched.
In the end, Kui Dou still managed to bring out half a Dragon Force. One could even vaguely see the image of an ancient Heaven Dragon appear behind him when he punched.
"Bang!"
Kui Dou's punch landed on the other party's dragon claw. Space trembled, and an explosion instantly deafened everyone within five hundred kilometers. The buildings on Black Patterned Island under Kui Dou's feet crumbled into rubble.
Kui Dou's body flew back like a cannonball. He clearly felt that the force of this punch surpassed that of the Blue Dragon. However, he was the one who got knocked back.
Long Fei, who was fifty kilometers away, gently tapped his folding fan and whispered, "Incredible. He really materialized the 'momentum' of Soaring Dragon to the Flawless level. This momentum is the momentum of soaring. If Kui Dou wants to resist it, he either has to materialize a corresponding momentum or use force to break through it. Unfortunately … "
"You want to break my Soaring Dragon with just half a Dragon Force? Kui Dou, you are too naive."
Xiao Chen's cold voice rang out. Kui Dou looked at his bloodied right hand and then at the front. He felt incredulous. The Blue Dragon before his eyes actually flashed and turned into Xiao Chen's figure.
"Rumble …!" Just as Xiao Chen prepared to use half a Dragon Force and his Flawless saber Dao to take down Kui Dou in one move, he suddenly heard the sound of surging waves.
Xiao Chen turned his head and saw an overwhelming black wave surging at him. Wei Hua stood at the top of the wave and looked down at Xiao Chen. He said coldly, "Today, I'll show you what it means by there is always someone better out there. The Underworld River's Nine Waves."
Nine similar overwhelming waves appeared around Xiao Chen. Wei Hua stood at the top of each wave. Together, they looked like a cage slowly shrinking.
"Xiao Chen, these waves are genuine Underworld River Water. They are thousands of times denser than the Death Qi in the Corpse Refining Pool. As long as they surround you, no matter how powerful you are, you will not have a chance to execute them. You will turn into a dried corpse."
The nine Wei Huas opened their mouths at the same time, and cold laughter spread out in all directions.
"Do you think that I would take the initiative to challenge you, who underwent a nirvanic rebirth, if I did not have a trump card? You are too naive. If you had not been delayed by Kui Dou, you might have been able to escape at the start.
"Now, I will send out my nine waves, forming the power of the Prison Locking Divine Dragon. Even if you are a True Dragon, you will have to lie down obediently today."
What a great Wei Hua! To think that he used his trump card right off the bat. He did not have any intention of testing Xiao Chen at all.
Everyone felt shocked in their hearts. However, it was fortunate that Wei Hua did not test Xiao Chen. Otherwise, if he really tried, he might end up like Kui Dou, defeated in one move.
Xiao Chen's lips curled up slightly, and his eyes filled with disdain. He said, "I thought that you really had some trump card that gave you so much confidence, daring to bet a resource star with me. It turns out that what you took out was just a half-finished Martial Technique filled with flaws. I'll show you how to break it with just a wave of my hand. "
The Kun Peng spread its wings, covering the sky with its gaze.
In ancient times, there was a divine bird known as the Kun Peng. When it spread its wings and soared, it could travel four thousand kilometers in one breath. When it stretched its arms, it could cover the entire sky.
Now, Xiao Chen used his Flawless saber Dao to execute the Kun Peng Fist. Instantly, a perfect "momentum" formed and soared into the sky, clashing wildly with Wei Hua's power of the Prison Locking Divine Dragon.
The situation of a stalemate did not happen. As Xiao Chen shouted, he shattered the black wave in front of him with a punch.
With the nine waves gone, the power of the Prison Locking Divine Dragon naturally broke without Xiao Chen attacking. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The remaining eight waves scattered as well. Wei Hua stabilized his tottering body in the air. Blood leaked out of a corner of his lips as he said, "How can it be like this? The Underworld River Nine Waves is a Martial Technique that can protect one's life even before a grandmaster-level Martial Sage."
Under the night sky, Xiao Chen said calmly, "No matter how powerful a killing move is, if it is filled with flaws, how can it bring out its full might? I already said it before: I really do not care about the current you. "
Xiao Chen swept his gaze over the two, who had lost all fighting spirit and appeared disappointed.
Xiao Chen felt somewhat disappointed in his heart. Before he comprehended the Flawless saber Dao, he still feared these two. However, they were now far from being a match for him.
The victor of this battle was already decided.
"Wei Hua, Long Fei, is there still a need to continue fighting?"
Xiao Chen asked calmly as he stood upright with his hands behind his back and looked at the two.
In just one exchange, Xiao Chen had beaten the two to the point that they lost all confidence. Their earlier bold words now looked like a joke.
"You win!"
Wei Hua spat out through clenched teeth. Then, he said sullenly, "Three days later, I will fulfill my promise and lead the people of my Underworld Fire Hall away from the resource star that we occupied."
Kui Dou endured the intense pain from his right hand and said, "Xiao Chen, the grudge between us will not end like this. When I attain a Rank 4 Sage Body, I will definitely challenge you."
No one had expected this startling battle, which everyone had expected, to end in just one exchange. It was hard to imagine how strong Xiao Chen was.
In the air, Bai Wuxue, Feng Xingsheng, and the others could not accept such a result.
