However, the Big Dipper Banner happened to be at a crucial moment. Xiao Chen could not leave unless he gave up on this Secret Treasure that he had spent so much effort on.
After putting in so much effort and holding so much hope, how could he give it up just like that?
The various experts before him all treated him like a dead man, arguing about who would get their Secret Treasures and Immortal Spirit Rings after they died.
Xiao Chen found this funny. He said calmly, "Speaking of which, are you all done arguing? Are you all going to attack together or one by one?"
"White Robed King Xiao Chen, you are rather graceful. Even in such a situation, you can still remain calm. There are rumors everywhere that your strength is already equal to that of Di Wuque's son of the Three Holy Masters and those peak geniuses of the ancient races. I, Ye Xu of the Heavenly Music Sect, do not believe that. "
A scholarly youth stepped forward and walked out of the crowd, a boundless fighting spirit blazing in his eyes.
The Heavenly Music Sect, the Muddy Sky Gate, and the Frost Moon Palace were the three peak sects of the Primal Chaos Domain. They dominated their regions, and their disciples were very proud in the Primal Chaos Domain. Clearly, this Ye Xu was not convinced of Xiao Chen's fame.
An ancient-looking thirty-six-string zither appeared in Ye Xu's hand. When the cool breeze blew, it gave off a tinkling sound like that of flowing water. It was clear and melodious, intoxicating everyone.
Xiao Chen revealed an interested expression as he took a step forward. Based on the name of the Heavenly Music Sect, he could guess that it was a sect that specialized in using sound to kill.
Ye Xu held the zither with both hands. Together with his scholarly air, he looked like an elegant young master of the secular world.
"White Robed King Xiao Chen, today, I will use you to establish my, Ye Xu's, reputation and obtain an invitation to the Heroes' Convention."
"Ding! Ding! Dong! Dong!" Ye Xu played the zither with one hand, plucking the strings. The clear, flowing sound suddenly changed into a demonic sound that could kill.
Many weapons leaped out of the zither like a storm, tearing through the air and charging at Xiao Chen. The zither music reverberated endlessly.
It was just a simple test, but Ye Xu already displayed such might. The cultivators who originally looked down on him immediately looked at him in a different light.
"Yue Qin is the most famous person in the Heavenly Chord Sect. I heard that he has long received an invitation from Di Wuque. I didn't expect that Ye Xu, who is not famous, has some ability."
"With him dealing with Xiao Chen, he should be able to probe Xiao Chen's true strength."
Seeing that someone was trying to probe Xiao Chen's strength, the others were happy to do so and began to comment on it as if they were pointing out the state of affairs.
A few cracking sounds rang out in the air. It was Xiao Chen using his finger as a saber. His fingertip flickered with light as he gently tapped the incoming weapons, shattering them one by one.
Winding River Nine Revolutions!
Ye Xu's expression changed slightly. He had not expected Xiao Chen to break it so easily. The tune changed, and the surging zither music soared again, surging like a river.
With the sound of rushing water, Ye Xu materialized a surging river, which flowed down from the 36-stringed zither. It was like Ye Xu stood at the peak of a tall mountain. With a casual wave, he made the river descend, giving off a tyrannical aura that suppressed the world.
However, while Ye Xu was tyrannical, Xiao Chen was even more tyrannical.
A bright light flickered on Xiao Chen's body, and the sound of a treasure saber being unsheathed rang out. "Ka ca! Ka ca!" Seven strings of the zither in Ye Xu's hand broke, and the zither music stopped.
Ye Xu's heart sank. What a strong saber intent! It is about to condense into a saber soul.
A saber light flew over and instantly chopped the surging river in half.
"You dare to test me with just this bit of ability? I will defeat you in one move!"
The saber wind arrived extremely fast. Ye Xu could not care less. He raised his zither to block. "Ka! Ka! Ka!" The remaining zither strings all broke under this saber strike. However, he still managed to block this sharp saber strike.
Ye Xu felt confident. He smiled coldly and said, "Although you are strong, you are dreaming if you want to defeat me in one move."
"Ka ca!"
Right after Ye Xu spoke, a bright moon rose behind Xiao Chen. The zither in his hand directly broke, and a flawless saber light shot out from Xiao Chen's hand.
Before Ye Xu could cry out, the saber chopped him in half, and blood sprayed into the air.
Under the moonlight, Xiao Chen's white robes fluttered in the wind, looking cold and proud. He swept his gaze over the shocked crowd and said, "Just a motley crew. No matter how many of you come, it is useless. Attack together."
"How arrogant!"
"How arrogant!"
After being looked down on by Xiao Chen, these people could not help but feel enraged. They turned into beams of flowing light and charged at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. His long hair and clothes fluttered. He used his body as a saber, bringing out an unparalleled saber edge as he charged into the crowd without fear.
His entire body was covered in sabers, and the four seasons flowed around him. Xiao Chen materialized the Flawless saber Dao. Aside from Immortal Arts and Magic Skills, he did not hold anything back as he started a massacre in the crowd.
Xiao Chen's white robes were dyed with blood, looking like a demonic god bathed in blood.
Miserable cries rang out. These people discovered that Xiao Chen's strength was completely different from what Mister Qin had said. They had completely misjudged the situation.
Ji Zong led the three disciples of the Xuanshui Sect to try and delay Xiao Chen several times. However, Xiao Chen managed to shake them off, not bothering with him at all. Xiao Chen's figure flashed, and blood splattered everywhere.
Soon, the peak filled with starlight became much quieter. Aside from a few who fled, only Ji Zong and the three disciples of the Xuanshui Sect remained.
Ji Zong felt a chill in his heart. Probably only his First Senior Brother could defeat this Xiao Chen before him.
"Bang!"
Just at this moment, a dazzling meteor-like light flew over and clashed with Xiao Chen. An earth-shattering sound spread out in all directions.
Xiao Chen vomited a mouthful of blood as he was blasted back to the peak. When his feet landed, cracks spread out on the summit. The entire mountain looked like it would crumble.
The middle-aged man beside Mister Qin, who had been waiting patiently, made a move. With his grandmaster-level Martial Sage cultivation, he knocked back Xiao Chen the moment he made a move.
Then, another huge hand flew over and grabbed the astral cocoon in the sky. The other grandmaster-level Martial Sage, the hemp-robed old man, made a move as well.
Mister Qin laughed loudly as he walked over. He looked at Xiao Chen, who was on the summit, and said, "Xiao Chen, did you enjoy killing earlier? These fools really thought that you were only a Medial Grade Martial Sage. After I tricked them, they could take your head and make a name for themselves.
"The people you killed were all sects with at least the Blue Robed Emperor in the Primal Chaos Domain. Among them, there were also disciples of the three great sects. Even if the Haotian Emperor came, he would not dare to act rashly. This time, you caused a huge disaster. No one will be able to save you! "
When Ji Zong saw the three people who suddenly charged out and the laughing Mister Qin, he could not help but feel his hair stand on end. This old fellow's schemes were actually so deep.
At the summit where strong winds blew, there was no starlight. Only the lonely bright moon shone down cold moonlight.
The hemp-robed old man's Quintessence hand grabbed the astral cocoon, and he revealed a smile on his old face. "I feel a complete constellation in there. The Secret Treasure inside is definitely very powerful. If he had succeeded in refining it, it would have been difficult to kill him this time.
"However, now, it has benefited me. A King Grade Secret Treasure from the Zodiac Hall is sufficient to raise my strength by another level."
Only grandmaster-level Martial Sages could bring out the full might of a King Grade Secret Treasure. This was something that everyone knew.
After obtaining a King Grade Secret Treasure with a raise of his hand, the hemp-robed old man was clearly in a good mood. With a flip of his hand, he placed the entire astral cocoon into his spatial ring, preparing to refine the Spiritual Mark in it when he returned.
At the summit, Xiao Chen exchanged punches with the middle-aged man. All his Law Energy was knocked back.
The blade-like energy immediately tore through his body, causing him to vomit a mouthful of blood. Now, Xiao Chen finally knew what the Superior Grade Martial Sages he fought with felt like. The energy of the Flawless saber Dao was simply too torturous.
Mister Qin smiled coldly and said, "Xiao Chen, just stand there obediently and let me slap you ten times. Then, I can leave you with an intact corpse."
The middle-aged man and the hemp-robed old man stood silently beside Mister Qin, like two protectors protecting him. They looked at Xiao Chen coldly and expressionlessly.
Grandmaster-level Martial Sage … Xiao Chen felt somewhat sad. All along, he had thought that he could remain undefeated before grandmaster-level Martial Sages. Unexpectedly, the difference was so great.
The difference in cultivation caused a qualitative change. No matter what technique Xiao Chen used, it would crumble before the other party's overwhelming strength, unable to withstand a single blow.
Xiao Chen's peak Rank 3 Sage Body did not cause him much injury. The difference was too great; he could not block the other party at all.
Unless Xiao Chen circulated Deities Descending, it would be very difficult to block a strike from a grandmaster-level Martial Sage.
The trump card that he had prepared for a long time was snatched away by the other party. Xiao Chen's thoughts raced. At this moment, even if he used two Magic Skills, he would only be able to flee. He would not be able to snatch back the Big Dipper Banner.
Xiao Chen felt very dissatisfied. After putting in so much effort and exhausting all his resources, he ended up with nothing in the end.
This won't do. Even if I have to leave, I have to kill this undying old thing.
Xiao Chen's gaze turned cold as he said to Mister Qin, "I'll stand here. If you dare, then come over and slap me!"
Mister Qin did not get angry. At this moment, everything was within his control. He smiled faintly and said, "Since you want to get slapped so much, this old man will grant you your wish. Brother Feng, Senior Liu, I'll break this brat's legs and feet. Let's see how he can remain arrogant then."
The middle-aged man with the family name Feng smiled and said, "Old Qin, you are a Martial Sage. Why would you need the two of us to work together? Brother Liu, watch carefully and don't let this brat escape. I'll deal with him alone. "
The hemp-robed old man nodded and landed behind Xiao Chen, blocking Xiao Chen's path.
"Brat, your physical body is pretty good. Take another Army Killing Fist of mine."
The middle-aged man grinned maliciously. His body grew in size, and crackling sounds resounded as he transformed into a bloody battlefield. He charged forward like a commander of a thousand troops on horseback.
Kill! Kill! "
A boundless tyrannical aura spread out from the middle-aged man's body. Before the fist arrived, millions of soldiers with surging blood Qi arrived before Xiao Chen, shouting, "Kill!"
