A slender, nearly perfect, and handsome man in white appeared before Xiao Chen. There was a scarlet mark between his eyebrows, giving this perfect face an even more soul-stirring evil aura.
The white-clad man smiled warmly and said, "You truly live up to your reputation as a descendant of the Qing Emperor. Unexpectedly, the concealment techniques of my Asura Race cannot hide from your discerning eyes."
"Lan Shaobai, why are you here?"
The appearance of this white-clad man surprised Shui Lingling as well. When she saw him clearly, her expression turned cold as she immediately asked, "Why are you here?"
Lan Shaobai landed on the ground and stepped on the tree leaves without making a sound. He said softly, "I just arrived not long ago. However, don't worry. I already gave Elder Han a heads up. I did not come uninvited."
The Asura Race was an extremely strong race during the Ancient Era. However, they were few in number and did not have the ability to produce spirits and Demonic Corpses like the Corpse Race and the Ghost Race.
Many years ago, the Asura Race moved to a star, distancing themselves from the struggle for power in the Kunlun Realm.
Hearing Lan Shaobai's explanation, Shui Lingling's expression improved. However, she still felt uncomfortable.
Lan Shaobai looked straight at Xiao Chen. His perfect face revealed a sincere expression as he said, "Brother Xiao Chen, what do you think of Miss Shui's suggestion? We are all proud people. How can we let Di Wuque erect this Hero Monument? Furthermore, the Deity Race is an outsider race.
"Their wild ambition has always existed, wanting to unify the Kunlun Realm."
Lan Shaobai's words were sincere and did not contain any arrogance. He humbled himself, waiting for Xiao Chen's answer in anticipation.
Xiao Chen lay on the tree trunk, not showing any intention of getting up. He smiled and said, "Well said. I think very highly of you holding the Heroes' Convention. Do your best. I will send someone to deliver a congratulatory note at that time."
"What do you mean by this?! My Big Brother Shao Bai is talking to you, but you're not even standing up. "
On the road behind the Spirit Tree, a man and a woman walked over quickly. The one who spoke was the woman on the right.
The woman looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. She had a head of fiery-red hair and fair skin. Her beautiful face gave off a lively and adorable aura.
There was a red mark on his forehead. Needless to say, he was from the Asura Race.
Shui Lingling clearly had some friendship with this girl. She exclaimed in surprise, "Yu, you're here too."
"Yes, we just paid a visit to Elder Han and explained the purpose of our visit. But Elder Han said that everything is up to this person to decide, he has no right to interfere. "
The Asura girl named Yu nodded and pointed at Xiao Chen angrily.
The Asura Race man beside Xiao Chen was dressed in black. When he saw Xiao Chen leaning lazily against the tree, he frowned slightly as well. However, he tolerated it well and did not say anything.
Xiao Chen pushed himself off the ground and stood up. "Sorry, I still have something to do. I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, he headed for the space-time tunnel on his own without waiting for them to reply. When Shui Lingling saw the situation, she informed the three that she could not entertain them for now and quickly followed.
The black-clad Asura Race man watched the two disappear into the space-time tunnel. He said, "What is the relationship between this Miss Shui and this person? Why is she so concerned about Xiao Chen's attitude?"
Lan Shaobai said depressingly, "What relationship? I gave her the Heavenly Silver Flower petals, and she casually gave them to this person as a greeting gift. "
Yu exclaimed in shock, "That can't be. How could Elder Sister Shui be like that? The Heavenly Silver Flower blooms once every hundred years, and there is only one flower with three petals. Elder Brother Shaobai, it was not easy for you to obtain an extra petal from Di Wuque. Yet, Elder Sister Shui actually gave it away? "
The black-clad man smiled bitterly and said, "This is really depressing for you. However, based on their relationship, they do not seem to be lovers. Shaobai, you still have a chance. However, do we really need this person for the Heroes' Convention? "
At the mention of the Heroes' Convention, Lan Shaobai's perfect face turned extremely grave. He said, "It is not that we need his help. It is just that with his help, we will be more confident of suppressing Di Wuque.
"Xiao Chen, you should seriously consider this. Di Wuque is organizing the Heroes' Convention to pressure you. Once he becomes the main character, you will never be able to turn things around."
After leaving the space-time tunnel, the two arrived in the sky above the Kunlun Continent's Haotian City.
Shui Lingling looked at Xiao Chen anxiously. The depths of her eyes were filled with concern.
Seeing that Xiao Chen did not say anything, Shui Lingling said somewhat anxiously, "Lan Shaobai's strength is really comparable to Di Wuque's. If you work with him, you will definitely be able to suppress Di Wuque."
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly in his heart. How could he not sense the concern in Shui Lingling's words? However, Xiao Chen could tell what kind of person Lan Shaobai was after probing him a little.
This person said that Di Wuque had the ambition of a wolf, but was he not the same? He clearly looked down on Xiao Chen, yet he was willing to lower his voice and speak to Xiao Chen. He was not an ordinary person.
The man and woman beside him were also not ordinary people, especially the black-clad man. Xiao Chen compared the black-clad man to Long Fei and concluded that the black-clad man was stronger than Long Fei.
If Xiao Chen worked with such a person, he would be weak and would not be able to take the initiative. It was just that Xiao Chen had replaced Di Wuque with Lan Shaobai, and there was still someone suppressing him. There was no change at all.
Xiao Chen thought even further. His First Senior Sister was a smart person. It was impossible that she had not thought of this. Why was she so flustered?
The answer was probably that Di Wuque's strength had already reached an extremely terrifying level during his experience in the Starry Heaven Silver Lake. His First Senior Sister believed that she no longer stood a chance against him.
If Di Wuque's Heroes' Convention succeeded, then she would not be able to survive. This was the saying, "Worry leads to chaos."
Stopping, Xiao Chen smiled softly. "First Senior Sister, why do you feel that I have to work with others to host a Heroes' Convention?"
Shui Lingling was slightly stunned. She pondered over Xiao Chen's tone and her eyes lit up. "Junior Brother Xiao Chen, are you thinking of hosting a Heroes' Convention by yourself?"
Xiao Chen shook his head. "No."
"Then why?"
"The word 'hero' is too heavy. I don't even dare to call myself a hero, so why would I host a Heroes' Convention? However, don't worry, I have already thought of a general way to deal with Di Wuque's Heroes' Convention. "
Shui Lingling blinked her eyes and asked in disbelief, "Really?"
Xiao Chen smiled and asked, "First Senior Sister, you don't believe in Xiao Chen? I have never been one to sit around and wait for death, nor do I boast. "
When Shui Lingling heard this, she recalled some of Xiao Chen's past. She revealed a smile and said, "It looks like I was overly worried. I won't disturb you for now. I still have to go and entertain Lan Shaobai."
Hearing that Shui Lingling still had to go and entertain Lan Shaobai, Xiao Chen could not help but feel uncomfortable. However, he quickly adjusted himself and performed a cupped-fist salute. "Many thanks for First Senior Sister's kind intentions. I'll take my leave first."
After returning to his peak, Xiao Chen entered the cultivation room familiarly. Without saying anything, he used the Peak Spirit Vein to start cultivating.
Now that the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation had reached the seventh layer, his cultivation speed was no slower than Di Wuque and the other outstanding talents. In fact, he was even faster.
However, Xiao Chen had been in the Sky Dome Realm, where the Spiritual Energy was thin. After he returned, he had been busy comprehending the saber Dao and had not had much time to cultivate. Now that he had the time and the conditions to quietly comprehend, he naturally had to consolidate his cultivation.
Now, Xiao Chen's cultivation had already reached early-stage Medial Grade Martial Sage. The mysterious small world in his dantian contained six hundred Heavenly Sage Laws.
There were not many of them, but each one was as thick as a baby's arm. He would not be any weaker than a regular Superior Grade Martial Sage.
More importantly, Xiao Chen still had vast Magic Energy in his sea of consciousness. This was his greatest trump card.
Five days later, the Vice Sect Master sent someone to deliver the Heart Nourishing Grass, Bright Yellow Ganoderma, Gilded Fruit, Heavenly Blood Vine, and Forget Worry Grass that Xiao Chen needed.
When Xiao Chen saw these five Spirit Herbs, he heaved a sigh of relief. The Firmament Body Tempering Art could finally reach Consummation. He had waited for this day for far too long.
The last five layers of the Firmament Body Tempering Art corresponded to the five internal organs of the human body. There was no order.
After cultivating it, the five internal organs — heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and kidneys — would be extremely resilient and resilient. Take the heart for example. As long as it was not instantly shattered, even if it was pierced, one would not die immediately.
The only unfortunate thing was that this Body Tempering Art, which originally increased Vital Qi, could not increase the strength of the last five layers at all.
Xiao Chen took a deep breath, and the Neptune Headscarf on his forehead immediately gave off a cooling, cold Qi.
The many messy thoughts in Xiao Chen's mind were swept away like fallen leaves. Now, he was completely immersed in cultivating the Firmament Body Tempering Art.
The Neptune Headscarf was indeed wondrous. Its calming effect was already worthy of being called a rare treasure.
Xiao Chen swallowed the Heart Nourishing Grass. After the Medicinal Energy took effect, he started to use the Firmament Body Tempering Art's energy to temper his heart.
Now that his body had already reached Rank 3 Sage Body, he had already surpassed the basic requirements for cultivating the Firmament Body Tempering Art. There were no obstructions to this tempering; the process went very smoothly.
"Bang!
Bang! Bang! "As the Medicinal Energy permeated his heart and Xiao Chen tempered it, his heartbeat slowed down. However, it grew stronger.
With every heartbeat, a dull sound echoed in the room. The interval between heartbeats grew longer.
In the end, his heart did not beat for a long time. However, the energy generated when it suddenly beat was like thunder, displaying a berserk lifeforce. It was like an ancient Holy Beast with a boundless lifeforce.
Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and his heart returned to normal. With a flip of his hand, a short sword appeared.
Then, Xiao Chen tore off his clothes and aimed the tip of the sword at his heart. After thinking for a while, he stabbed it in.
Blood flowed out as the tip of the sword stabbed his heart. However, it did not pierce through. The strong toughness of the heart slowly resisted the sword.
Success! Xiao Chen's face lit up in joy. He let his heart relax, and the tip of the sword successfully pierced through.
Immediately, intense pain spread to his brain. However, when Xiao Chen clenched his teeth and pulled out the sword, the crack in his heart quickly healed. The crack in Xiao Chen's heart immediately closed up at an extremely fast speed. Not long after, it returned to normal. There was no need to circulate Qi at all.
