Such a scene startled Ouyang Long, who was underground. As he looked at the white-clad Xiao Chen under the moonlight, he exuded the air of a grandmaster.
"The air of a grandmaster! Since when did he advance to grandmaster-level Martial Sage? That's not right. His cultivation is still far from that. He is not a grandmaster-level Martial Sage yet. "
Ouyang Long did not dare to think further. Ignoring the other Purple Night Sword Sect disciples, he turned around and fled.
With a thought, the bright moon in the sky slowly disappeared. As Xiao Chen watched Ouyang Long flee, a murderous intent flashed on his face.
He stood on two lightning dragons and moved as fast as lightning, appearing like a flickering light.
The purple Lightning Talisman in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness spun continuously. The might of his will supported the lightning dragons under him.
This made Xiao Chen look like he was standing on a bolt of lightning, becoming one with it. He was astonishingly fast. With a few accelerations, he caught up to the injured Ouyang Long. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! "
Ouyang Long no longer had a sword in his hand. Furthermore, he was injured. How could he block Xiao Chen? In less than ten moves, Xiao Chen knocked him to the ground, weakening him.
"Cough! Cough! Xiao Chen, don't be happy too early. This time, not only will you not be able to go to the King conferral ceremony, but you can also forget about surviving. "
Ouyang Long knew that he would die for sure. He roared in despair, "You will definitely die on the way …"
Before Ouyang Long could finish speaking, Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and pointed. A saber light flashed, and a bloody hole appeared on Ouyang Long's forehead.
Xiao Chen removed Ouyang Long's spatial ring and weighed it before placing it in his Universe Ring.
Ouyang Long's dying words echoed in Xiao Chen's mind. You are walking a dead end, a dead end.
Xiao Chen looked into the distance, in the direction of the Central Province's Bushin Palace. Xiao Chen's footsteps did not hesitate at all. He did not shrink back at all as he walked forward without hesitation.
He was like the heart of a bladesman, not panicking, not hesitating, rather breaking than bending.
In the sky, on a heavy warship, the members of the three Sovereign Clans gathered together.
Inside the control room, Yan Shisi and the scions of the Jiang and Lin Clans sat together. An old man stood behind each of them. They were the First Elders of the three clans.
In front of them, there was a mirror that looked like a water curtain. The scene of two great grandmaster-level Martial Sages dying at Xiao Chen's hands appeared on the screen.
These people all sucked in a breath of cold air. They had never thought that Xiao Chen would actually grow to such an extent.
The Lin Clan's scion had a gloomy gaze as he said, "We really can't let this fellow live. Otherwise, he will definitely become the second Qing Emperor. At that time, if he were to take charge of Bushin Palace, there would definitely be no way for our family to survive. "
Yan Shisi smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry. He absolutely won't be able to escape this time. Perhaps we might not even need to make a move."
Although this group of people had seen Xiao Chen's strength, they were still very confident that they could kill Xiao Chen. Clearly, they had made ample preparations and had the means to kill Xiao Chen.
Seven days later, Xiao Chen arrived at a city.
This was a large city at the borders of the Profound Domain and the Tianwu Domain. It was called Strange Fire City.
Along the way, aside from practicing Martial Techniques, Xiao Chen did not neglect the most fundamental cultivation.
Xiao Chen had forty-nine Peak Spirit Veins and the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation, which surpassed a Heaven Ranked Cultivation Technique. His cultivation speed increased by leaps and bounds.
If not for the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation's seventh layer strengthening Xiao Chen's foundation, he would have successfully advanced to grandmaster-level Martial Sage long ago. He would not have had to wait until now.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was only a hair's breadth away from grandmaster-level Martial Sage. With just a little effort, he could advance to grandmaster-level Martial Sage.
However, Xiao Chen had even greater ambitions. Grandmaster-Level Martial Sage was not what he wanted.
Xiao Chen wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to break through to peak Superior Grade Martial Sage and directly advance to great grandmaster-level Martial Sage.
Only then would he be able to use his absolute strength to suppress the White Emperor City's Xiao Hou Jue, killing all the people who were planning to cause trouble and ruin.
This was not impossible. Xiao Chen did not lack resources at all. Furthermore, he had forty-eight Peak Spirit Veins. Even the inheritors of the Holy Lands could not compare to him.
What he lacked was only inner comprehension and vision.
Those older-generation great grandmaster-level Martial Sages all had more than a hundred years of comprehension and vision.
What Xiao Chen wanted to do was to use this test as an opportunity to walk the path that those people had taken a hundred years to walk in one step.
This was also why Xiao Chen rejected Ying Qiong's offer to send someone to escort him. He could only walk this path himself.
Otherwise, even if he went to the Central Province and appeared at the King conferral ceremony, he would just be embarrassing himself.
Collecting his thoughts, Xiao Chen started to size up the city before him. It was too quiet, very uncoordinated.
Xiao Chen scanned the streets with his Spiritual Sense. The streets were empty.
He stepped into the city. There were stalls, restaurants, and shops on the wide streets. There was only some dust. This city had not been empty for long.
"Boom!"
When Xiao Chen arrived at the center of the city, a sharp, cold killing Qi suddenly surged out of the silent city and soared into the clouds.
Many elite soldiers wearing black armor and holding crossbows leaped out of the buildings in the city. Killing Qi radiated from them, and there were at least fifty thousand of them.
When looking carefully, everyone's position seemed to have some tricks up their sleeves, like they formed a strange formation.
The many spears of killing Qi all pointed at Xiao Chen.
Even Xiao Chen felt unnatural. His muscles tensed up, and his Law Energy quickly pulsed.
Xiao Chen frowned slightly, finding this somewhat incredulous. Earlier, when he scanned the city with his Spiritual Sense, he had not seen anyone. "Deng! Deng!
Deng! Deng! "
The sound of horses galloping resounded. A few large black horses galloped over from the distance, kicking up a trail of dust as they galloped over.
The horses whipped their whips, and in a few breaths, a small group of one hundred cavalrymen arrived before Xiao Chen.
The black armor of the one hundred cavalrymen before Xiao Chen was even thicker and more solid than that of the elite soldiers.
Occasionally, light flashed between the gaps of the armor. It was clearly a complete set of Superior Grade Sage Grade Secret Treasures.
A complete set of Superior Grade Sage Grade Secret Treasures was much stronger than an ordinary King Grade Secret Treasure.
A complete set of one hundred cavalrymen was a large sum of money. Without twenty million Black Astral Coins, it would be difficult to obtain them. In fact, even if one had the money, it would not be easy.
The black horse that Xiao Chen rode was not an ordinary Spirit Beast. Based on its characteristics, it was clearly a peak warhorse, the Qilin Horse. Just the horse itself was as strong as a Martial Sage.
When the cavalrymen were one kilometer away from Xiao Chen, they stopped in an orderly fashion. They did not say a word, only looking coldly at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen searched his mind for information on Strange Fire City.
As a large city at the borders, Strange Fire City was under the jurisdiction of the Bushin Palace. It had the responsibility of protecting the Tianwu Domain in the first place. These soldiers on the roofs were all elite soldiers who had experienced hundreds and thousands of battles. They were much stronger than some of the disciples of the Nine Ranks of the Great Families.
The City Lord, Wang Feng, had the cultivation of the Blue Robed Emperor. These cavalrymen before Xiao Chen might be the other party's personal guards.
"White Robed Xiao Chen, Strange Fire City's City Lord, Wang Feng. I have long heard of your great name."
As Xiao Chen pondered, a black-clad man stood on the tallest tower in the city and spoke to Xiao Chen.
That tall tower was ten kilometers away from Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen could only see a black figure with his eyes; he could not make out the other party's appearance.
When Xiao Chen sent his Spiritual Sense over, an aura affected him. Similarly, he could only see a vague silhouette.
Wang Feng stood on that tall tower, not doing anything. Wind and clouds churned behind him. The wind and clouds inhaled and exhaled all sorts of scenes, giving one a feeling of vast mountains and rivers, a majestic grandeur.
The Blue Robed Emperor. This was the Blue Robed Emperor. No matter where he was in the Kunlun Realm, he would be known as the Blue Robed Emperor. With one more step, he would be able to ascend to the Great Dao and enter the realm of Emperor Wu.
The other party set up such a large formation but did not rush to attack. Xiao Chen did not know what they were planning.
Xiao Chen did not make any changes. He said sullenly, "The Haotian Sect's Xiao Chen greets City Lord Wang."
Ten kilometers away, on the tall tower, Wang Feng smiled and said, "Even in such a situation, you can still remain so calm. White Robed Xiao Chen, you are rather courageous.
"I, Wang, will not speak any nonsense. On behalf of the White Emperor City's Holy Lord, I invite you to stay in this small city for one month. After one month, the sky and the sea will be vast, and you will be free to roam. "
Wang Feng's words were rather beautiful. After one month, the King conferral ceremony would have ended long ago.
Xiao Chen asked calmly, "What if I say no?"
Wang Feng had guessed Xiao Chen's answer long ago. He smiled faintly and said, "Then, my fifty thousand soldiers guarding the border will make sure you die without a corpse."
Wang Feng's tone was calm and casual.
However, right after Wang Feng spoke, the originally bleak killing Qi in the city turned even colder.
Fifty thousand pairs of eyes stared at Xiao Chen from the eaves. A cold killing Qi seeped out of their pores.
Most people would not be able to endure such a formation. Fear would spread to every part of the body. It would be bad if one could bring out half their combat prowess.
Strange Fire City guarded the border. As long as Xiao Chen entered the Tianwu Domain from this direction, the other party would immediately discover him.
Whether he entered the city or not, the result would be the same.
"Sorry for the offense!"
At this point, there was nothing more to say. Even if there were thousands of soldiers, he had to give it a try. He had to go to the King conferral ceremony.
"Whoosh!"
The moment Xiao Chen pushed off the ground, before he left the ground, countless sonic booms rang out. Many black arrows flickered with light, giving off ear-piercing screeches as they flew towards Xiao Chen.
Without needing to look, Xiao Chen could guess that these were not ordinary arrows. They could definitely injure a grandmaster-level Martial Sage. The fifty thousand elite soldiers guarding the border of Strange Fire City were definitely not just for show.
The arrows were like rain, covering the sky and the ground, not leaving any blind spots. Piercing sonic booms filled the air. The killing Qi that Xiao Chen stored up earlier exploded at this moment. Heaven and earth trembled as it erupted.
"Bang!
Bang! Bang! "A boundless saber intent shot out from every part of Xiao Chen's body. The arrows shattered in the air, unable to get close to Xiao Chen.
Standing on a lightning dragon, Xiao Chen moved as fast as lightning. His figure flickered endlessly in the air, sending saber winds everywhere.
The black-armored soldiers on the eaves leaped around, appearing very agile.
The arrows moved like beams of light, shooting out continuously. The black-armored soldiers closely followed Xiao Chen. As long as he relaxed, ten thousand arrows would pierce his heart.
The one hundred black-armored soldiers below stared at Xiao Chen's figure. They did not say anything, their faces expressionless.
Even further away, Wang Feng, who was on the tall tower, smiled faintly as he stood upright with his hands behind his back.
