Now that he had tasted the benefits and sweetness of the Slayer Emperor Spell, Xiao Chen wanted to cultivate the Slayer Emperor Spell to a higher level as soon as possible.
"Although the killing intent on the people in the extreme north is thick, it's not a good idea to go there again. Looks like I can only go to the ancient race!" Xiao Chen started to plan again.
Before, he didn't go to the ancient race because he thought it was too dangerous.
But now that he had just fused three strands of killing intent, his strength had increased by three times. This gave him a lot of confidence.
Now, he was confident that he could defeat any peak immortal general of the ancient race.
Plus, Ping could attack at any time.
But unless it was an emergency, Xiao Chen didn't want to expose that Ping was his subordinate.
This was one of the reasons he didn't go to the ancient race.
After all, a powerful Immortal King could be said to be at the peak of the Chaos Lands.
If he didn't expose himself, he could be used as a trump card. But if he exposed himself, people would be on guard.
It was true that Ping had helped out once when they had occupied the Snow Wave Prefecture, but it was still too late.
It was just that the Immortal King of the Ancient race wouldn't have expected Ping to be his subordinate.
So Xiao Chen didn't think that the ancient race had found out about this.
After all, Ping being his subordinate was a secret.
Even Pei Yuanqing, who sent Ping, didn't know.
After subduing Ping, Xiao Chen told Ping to send a fake message to Pei Yuanqing, saying that he couldn't help when the matter was exposed. Then he cut off contact.
So even Pei Yuanqing and Sima Rui didn't know that Ping had become his subordinate.
Plus, ever since he attacked the Snow Wave Prefecture, Ping hadn't done anything else. Plus, they were intentionally hiding it, so they didn't expose too much.
Therefore, Xiao Chen had always wanted to hide Ping away and only use him at critical moments. However, if he were to head over to the ancient race, there was a high chance that he would provoke those powerful Immortal Kings of the ancient race. That was why Xiao Chen had been hesitating. But right now, he had no other choice but to head over to the ancient race.
Then, he left the room and went to the main hall.
Halfway there, he met Yang Kangning.
"Lord Mansion Lord, you've come out from your seclusion?" Yang Kangning was pleasantly surprised to see Xiao Chen.
"Well, is there anything special these two days?" Xiao Chen asked casually.
Yang Kangning was suddenly stunned. "Lord Manor Lord, it has been more than five months since you came back and went into closed-door cultivation."
"What?!" Xiao Chen was shocked.
"Lord Manor Lord, what's wrong? Did something go wrong? "Yang Kangning was also worried.
"You just said that I've been in seclusion for more than five months since I came back from the extreme north?" Xiao Chen was dumbfounded.
"Yes, the last time you came back, you said that you would be in seclusion for a few days. I didn't expect that so much time had passed." Yang Kangning nodded.
Xiao Chen furrowed his brows. Without saying a word, he began to calculate.
Then he was speechless.
That was because Yang Kangning did not lie to him. It had indeed been more than five months.
This was also what made Xiao Chen most depressed. He felt that the integration of the murderous aura was only a matter of a moment. Therefore, after the integration was completed, he did not calculate how long it took him.
However, he did not expect that the feeling of a blink of an eye would take him more than five months.
"Xiao Sha, is it time-consuming to integrate the murderous aura?" Xiao Chen asked the Fengsha Sword using his spiritual will.
"Yes, Big Brother. It doesn't take much time to condense the murderous aura. However, integrating the murderous aura into one's own strength is indeed very slow," the little fellow said truthfully.
"But I feel that only a moment has passed." Xiao Chen was speechless.
"It's like this. During the process of integrating the murderous aura, you really can't feel the passage of time. In the future, each integration will take more and more time. However, for Big Brother Xiao, no matter how long the integration takes, it will only feel like a moment," the Fengsha Sword said again.
"Is it that special?" Xiao Chen could only accept it gloomily.
Then, he said in a rather displeased manner, "Next time, if there is anything about cultivating the Slayer Emperor Art, please tell me clearly in advance, okay?"
The feeling of a moment had passed for so long. What if a thousand or ten thousand years had passed during the integration? Wouldn't the world turn into a mulberry field?
"Ahem, I'm sorry, Big Brother. The memory that I recovered is also quite fragmented. I didn't organize enough complete information in such a short time. However, I will definitely pay attention in the future. If any memory about the Slayer Emperor Art appears, I will report to Big Brother immediately." The little fellow was very embarrassed.
"Alright, is that alright? Then continue cultivating." What else could Xiao Chen say?
"Lord Prefecture Master, Lord Prefecture Master, are you alright?" Yang Kangning saw that Xiao Chen was in a daze after asking her a few questions and could not help but feel a little worried.
"I'm fine. Did anything big happen in the past five months?" Xiao Chen turned around and asked.
"If it's something big, there should be! And it's a joyous occasion! "Yang Kangning smiled.
"Joyous occasion? What joyous occasion?" Xiao Chen was curious.
"Lord Prefecture Master, the few territories of the ancient race that you previously conquered are now completely under our control. Now, they have firmly become our territories!" Yang Kangning said.
"So fast? Did the ancient race not counterattack? "Xiao Chen was very surprised.
It should be known that territories in the No-Beginning Region were very precious. After all, most of the areas were dangerous and uninhabitable.
Even if the Chaos Lands was only a low-level area, it was still the same.
Losing four territories at once, the ancient race should be frantically counterattacking to take them back.
"In the beginning, they did indeed frantically counterattack. However, we used several times the strength on our side and forcefully took control of the territories. It is basically impossible for those fellows from the ancient race to fight back. So now, they are only occasionally harassing us. However, they have basically given up fighting for the territories!" Yang Kangning said.
"Are the ancient race so willing to lose so many territories?" Xiao Chen still felt that it was somewhat inconceivable.
"Of course they are unwilling. However, in this place, the difference in strength between the two great worlds is not that big. Once it is conquered, it is basically very difficult to take it back. So, they have set their sights on the Northernmost Region," Yang Kangning said.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Chen was startled.
"The ancient race has lost so many territories. Naturally, they want to replenish it. So, they have recently made several moves on the Northernmost Region. They want to expand their territory!" Yang Kangning said.
"Are they crazy? Invade and occupy the Northernmost Region? "Xiao Chen's eyes widened.
"Lord Prefecture Master, there is something you don't know. In this region of the Chaos Lands, the better areas have all been controlled by Dingnan City, the ancient race, and the foreign races. Then, it is the Northernmost Region and those dangerous uninhabited areas. The ancient race has lost so many territories at once. Naturally, they are unwilling. However, if they want to easily occupy territory, they can only do so in the Northernmost Region!" Yang Kangning explained.
