Chapter 1825 (Raw 1836): Toying with Yang Feng
The flames churned in the vast sea of blood.
As more cultivators pa.s.sed through the demonic cloud at the cave mouth, more cultivators of various paths arrived at the seaside.
With the lesson from the demonic cloud at the cave mouth, no one dared to act rashly this time.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen felt his hackles rise. More and more gazes seemed to focus on him.
Having already formed the will of soul and his physical body having made several breakthroughs, he could feel an ordinary gaze, even if it held no murderous intent.
Long ago, Xiao Chen had been exposed because of one glare in the Cl.u.s.ter Lord’s Residence.
Now, he was capable of that as well.
Xiao Chen did not change his expression. He listened, and after a while, he understood the reason.
It turned out that when Xiao Chen killed Si Shengjie, the strongest core disciple of the Heavenly Eagle Castle, in public, he had established a grudge with the Heavenly Eagle Castle’s people.
Those Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples hid in the crowd, fearing Xiao Chen’s strength.
They appeared extremely cautious, only occasionally glancing at him, not leaking any killing intent or killing Qi at all.
Xiao Chen’s heart skipped a beat. These people were probably secretly sending messages, reaching out to the true inheritors or Elders of the sect.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
Xiao Chen did not bother considering further. His figure flashed, and he flew to the sea of blood.
When he reached the sea of blood, he felt the pressure immediately increase a thousandfold. His body started plummeting towards the water like he was a broken kite.
“He discovered us. Stop him!”
The Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples monitoring Xiao Chen in secret changed their expressions drastically and attacked from afar immediately.
Many killing moves flew towards Xiao Chen with nothing held back.
After seeing Xiao Chen kill Si Shengjie with one move, these Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples did not underestimate him because of his cultivation.
When they attacked, they used their best move.
Such a scene immediately attracted the attention of all the nearby cultivators.
What kind of grudge was it for so many core disciples of the Heavenly Eagle Castle to attack together?
Who was this white-clad bladesman? To think that these core disciples all used their killing moves to deal with one Major Primal Core Venerate.
Xiao Chen did not get fl.u.s.tered. First, he activated the Divine Dragon War Body and stabilized himself in the air, interrupting his downward trajectory.
Then, he drove the Veritable Essence Energies with opposing attributes in his 9-Star Primal Core. When the two vast pools of Veritable Essence Energy circulated, his aura immediately soared wildly.
His hair fluttered, and the sea of blood below surged endlessly, kicking up overwhelming waves.
Not wanting to waste time, Xiao Chen directly used force to break the techniques. He threw a palm strike with his vast and dense Veritable Essence Energy.
“Boom!”
A palm wind surged out as an invisible Taiji force field appeared around Xiao Chen. After the Taiji force field diminished the force of the attacks, he used just one palm strike to block them all.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly, and his body gently drifted away, continuing to go farther.
Shock waves spread out and landed on the blazing sea of blood, kicking up pillars of bloodlike water.
“Senior Brother Yang is about to arrive. We cannot let him leave.”
“After him!”
Ten Heavenly Eagle Castle core disciples leaped up at the seaside and chased after Xiao Chen.
The Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples all summoned their Heavenly Thunder Eagles and quickly set out in pursuit over the blazing sea of blood.
The blazing sea of blood was terrifyingly hot. The Heavenly Thunder Eagles all turned restless and cried out in pain.
However, under the forceful control of their masters, they had no choice but to continue flying forward.
Various stimuli managed to bring out the peak speed of the Heavenly Thunder Eagles.
“What grudge is that big? To think that they forcefully rode on their Heavenly Thunder Eagles. They will end up exhausting themselves soon. If they are not careful, they might get burned to death.”
“That white-clad bladesman looks like the person who instant-killed Si Shengjie.”
“It’s him!”
“No wonder, then. Their strongest core disciple was killed. If they can’t establish their might, their sect’s reputation will suffer big time.”
The many cultivators whispered to each other. Those who had not witnessed the event also came to know the details of this matter.
They all showed shocked expressions. They wondered when such a strong bladesman had appeared in the Starlight Sea Region.
The sea of blood was quite vast. That continent was still a long distance off.
Xiao Chen did not dare to move at full speed. One hour later, ten-odd Heavenly Thunder Eagles caught up to him.
After all, these Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples were overdrawing on the lifeforce of their steeds. Xiao Chen could not compete with that.
“Brat, stay here!”
Since Xiao Chen was near, the frontmost person pushed off with his feet and left the back of his Heavenly Thunder Eagle to give chase personally.
“Boom!”
However, the moment that person left the Heavenly Thunder Eagle, he felt a huge pressure pressing down on himself. The demonic Cultivation Technique that he was circulating paused instantly.
“d.a.m.n it. How come the gravity above this sea of blood is a hundred times stronger?”
Just then, that person saw a saber light streaking over, not giving him time to stabilize himself.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
Before that person could react, eighty-one saber lights appeared in his body. Blood flew out from his wounds, and he sank into the sea of blood like a lead ball.
Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and looked at the sea of blood. That Heavenly Eagle Castle disciple instantly burned up, leaving only bones.
Xiao Chen did not say anything before turning around and continuing to fly forward.
The Martial Technique that the little monk deemed fancy but impractical was actually useful in many cases.
That same scene had reappeared. The Heavenly Eagle Castle cultivators chasing relentlessly now paused, reining in the Heavenly Thunder Eagles that they rode on.
It was that move again. It was an instant kill in the blink of an eye again.
How terrifying was this person?
“Humph! Since when were the disciples of my Heavenly Eagle Castle so terrified of others? Bunch of tras.h.!.+”
Suddenly, a cold snort came from the distance, the speaker coming closer.
The horrifying pressure slowly increased, making it hard to move above this sea of blood, where the gravity was extremely high in the first place.
I’m still a step too slow in the end.
Xiao Chen appeared expressionless as he stopped.
“Senior Brother Yang is here. This guy will not be able to flee anymore!”
The many Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples behind Xiao Chen immediately released their bated breath, showing joy on their faces.
However, before they could finish forming their smiles, an eternal saber light swept across.
It struck the Heavenly Thunder Eagles that the Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples sat on. As the birds shrieked, they got chopped in half.
These Heavenly Thunder Eagles had severely overdrawn on their lifeforce in the first place, suffering from the heat waves at every moment. How could they survive when Xiao Chen executed the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique’s Resolving the Mundane?
The disciples riding the Heavenly Thunder Eagles simply did not expect Xiao Chen not to go and face their Senior Brother Yang but actually come to seek trouble for them, instead.
Furthermore, the ones that Xiao Chen sought trouble for were not them but the Heavenly Thunder Eagles that they rode on.
These disciples showed horrified expressions. When they felt the gravity of the sea of blood, their horror turned into utter terror.
Thunder Dragon Nine Transformations!
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
The Thunder Dao’s Great Dao Energy and the Veritable Essence Energies with opposing attributes filling Xiao Chen’s body erupted nine times. The remaining nine people could not block Xiao Chen’s fast Saber Technique.
All of the disciples were struck with one set of attacks each, in addition to the shock wave from Resolving the Mundane. While their injuries were not fatal, they could not stabilize their bodies.
Showing unreconciled expressions, these disciples fell into the sea of blood and burned to a pile of withered bones.
The Demonic Dao cultivators who saw this scene from the distant seaside all felt a chill down their spines.
This white-clad bladesman seemed to have delicate facial features, unlike a person of the Demonic Dao.
However, when the white-clad bladesman attacked, he was even more ruthless than Demonic Dao cultivators. He did not say a single word or make any wasted actions.
“You are seeking death!”
When the Heavenly Eagle Castle disciple that was rus.h.i.+ng over saw this scene, he became so mad that he almost went crazy.
That Heavenly Eagle Castle disciple roared, and his body continuously enlarged, suddenly turning into a huge and scary ferocious beast that tried to bite down on Xiao Chen.
It’s you!
A brilliant light flashed in Xiao Chen’s eyes as he recalled the scene he saw along the way.
Unexpectedly, he ran into this person so soon.
However, Xiao Chen did not want to fight this person right now. Without those Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples delaying him, this person had no way to catch up to him.
“We will meet again.”
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and executed the Thunder Dragon Burst at full power. He turned into a bolt of lightning and moved fifty kilometers backward.
Then, Xiao Chen’s figure flickered as he changed directions. The lightning dragons that he stood on were incredibly nimble above this blazing sea of blood.
The ferocious beast turned back into a human. As Yang Feng looked at Xiao Chen, who was already far away, he gritted his teeth in hatred.
This was the first time anyone toyed with Yang Feng so badly. Furthermore, this person even killed all the Heavenly Eagle Castle disciples right before his eyes.
“Do you think you can run? None of the people that I, Yang Feng, want to kill can escape,” Yang Feng roared furiously. As his demonic Cultivation Technique circulated, his expression turned malevolent, and his body exploded.
He turned into a three-kilometer-tall giant and dashed on the sea of blood.
Moving like the wind, he traversed fifty kilometers each time he raised his feet
