Chapter 1513 (Raw 1493): Doomsday Approaching
Something had changed in the Heavenly Starry Ocean, so Xiao Chen had to go back . However, before he returned, there was something that he had to do .
“Big Brother, you should go back to the Martial G.o.d Palace first . I still need to return to the Azure Dragon Palace for a while . ”
Xiao Chen had come out of the Azure Dragon Palace in a rush, leaving many things undone . Since his big brother was fine, Xiao Chen needed to go back in .
Ying Zongtian nodded and immediately left . Although he was injured, as long as he showed himself alive in the Martial G.o.d Palace, with the prestige of being a Prime, he could suppress the three Holy Masters and a.s.semble all the forces of the Martial G.o.d Palace .
The Spirit Fox King performed a cupped-fist salute and left as well . Now that something major had happened in the Heavenly Starry Ocean, the entire Kunlun Realm would probably fall into great chaos . The Fiend Domain would need him there to take command .
When Xiao Chen entered the Azure Dragon Palace, he found that the old Dragon Horse and the other Item Spirits had been waiting for a long time .
“Sorry, please do not blame us for hiding it from you . If we had not done so, you would not have been able to clear the road of trials,” the old Dragon Horse said .
Everyone had different stances and different positions . How they looked at problems was also different .
Xiao Chen could understand this . The other party did it for his own good . The most important thing was that Ying Zongtian and the Spirit Fox King were both rather fortunate; nothing major happened to them .
Naturally, Xiao Chen would not blame these people .
“I understand . I would like to take the Heavenly Flame’s Origin Flame . Also, I would like to move the Azure Dragon Palace to Heavenly Star Island . Seniors, is that possible?”
The Azure Dragon Palace itself was a supreme treasure . With the Azure Dragon Palace guarding Heavenly Star Island, at the very least, the Dragon’s Gate would have nothing to worry about .
The old Dragon Horse hesitated for a while before saying, “Everything in the Azure Dragon Palace is yours . Naturally, you may have the Heavenly Flame’s Origin Flame . However, it is rather difficult to move the Azure Dragon Palace to Heavenly Star Island . With your current strength, you still can’t refine the Azure Dragon Palace . ”
“Can you please do your best to help me figure out a solution?” Xiao Chen requested with a cupped-fist salute .
“How about you physically carry it back? Since you can’t refine it, you can only use this kind of stupid method . It would just be tiring,” the azure-clad man suddenly suggested with a smile .
The old Dragon Horse was stunned for a while . Then, it said, “That is a solution . ”
“Can the Five-Element Absolute Sealing Formation be moved as well?”
“Of course . The core of the Five-Element Absolute Sealing Formation is the Azure Dragon Palace in the first place . Furthermore, the Azure Dragon Palace was not here in the past . ”
Thus, the matter of moving the Azure Dragon Palace to the Dragon’s Gate was settled . The black-clad old man took out the purple crystal containing the Heavenly Flame’s Origin Flame and handed it to Xiao Chen .
After Xiao Chen carefully put it away, he discovered that the old Dragon Horse was looking at him with a grave expression as if it had something to say but was restraining itself .
“Old Senior, do you have any instructions for me?”
“Never mind, there is no need for now . Go about your business first . After things calm down for a while, I have some things to tell you . Also, as the Azure Dragon Palace’s master, you have some duties to fulfill . ”
Xiao Chen entered deep thought as he nodded to indicate his understanding .
There was no such thing as only one side benefiting without any sort of duty . Obtaining the inheritance and breaking through the shackles of Martial Emperor were both benefits . However, Xiao Chen still did not know his duties .
Even so, there was no rush . Since the old Dragon Horse did not explain, it was not convenient for Xiao Chen to ask .
Furthermore, this was indeed not the time to think about it .
After coming out of the Azure Dragon Palace, Xiao Chen walked around the walls outside . Once he found a suitable angle, he grabbed it with both hands and pulled with all his might .
“Rumble…!”
The Azure Dragon Palace was completely uprooted like a large tree . Xiao Chen felt incredibly tired as if he was carrying a mountain .
However, no matter how tired he was, he had to move it . This was a treasure even more valuable than a mountain of gold .
Holding the bottom of the Azure Dragon Palace, he gritted his teeth, and his Vital Qi surged like a huge river gus.h.i.+ng endlessly .
One thousand strands of dragon-shaped energy danced about behind Xiao Chen, moving everywhere .
Using one thousand Dragon Force, Xiao Chen shouted and finally managed to raise the entire Azure Dragon Palace .
Then, he soared into the air, flying in the direction of the Heavenly Starry Ocean .
Wherever Xiao Chen pa.s.sed, the people who saw him were all stunned .
This was simply a miraculous scene: Xiao Chen actually carrying the entire Azure Dragon Palace .
While this looked simple, as if one could move the Azure Dragon Palace with just sufficient strength, in this world, only Xiao Chen could do this . As long as the old Dragon Horse was not willing, anyone else—even the Heaven Punis.h.i.+ng Corpse G.o.d, who had advanced to Prime through his physical body—would not be able to get close to the Azure Dragon Palace, much less pick it up .
Although Xiao Chen found this tiring, he did not relax for a single moment, worrying about the Heavenly Starry Ocean’s situation and the safety of the Dragon’s Gate’s people .
He directly unfurled the Azure Dragon Divine Wings and exhausted his Veritable Essence Energy to keep flapping those wings .
Everywhere Xiao Chen pa.s.sed, strong winds blew . He was like a sharp sword traveling thousands of kilometers, tearing a long tunnel through clouds .
By relying on the Azure Dragon Divine Wings and his Veritable Essence Energy, Xiao Chen finally arrived at the oceanside half a day later .
Now that he was closer, the scarlet spiritual clouds over the Heavenly Starry Ocean became even clearer .
Those scarlet spiritual clouds were not made up of baleful aura . A fresh scarlet represented ma.s.sacre, an ominous sign . However, those scarlet spiritual clouds clearly had pure Spiritual Energy, aside from ma.s.sacre .
This was particularly striking in the dense scarlet clouds, which confused Xiao Chen .
What’s going on? I left a Messaging Token with Mo Chen . She should have sent me a message if anything had happened . However, I have not received any messages . Could something have happened to Mo Chen?
At this thought, Xiao Chen became even more anxious, so he made the Azure Dragon Divine Wings on his back flap even harder .
“Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+”
Just at this moment, many figures popped up from the surface of the sea . Xiao Chen, who was holding up the Azure Dragon Palace, saw them very clearly . These were the people of the Merfolk Race from the Chaotic Demonic Sea .
“Quick, look! That is the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen . Inform the queen right away!”
The Merfolk Race immediately noticed Xiao Chen . Soon, the Merfolk Race’s Queen Yao Yan, escorted by the Merfolk Race upper echelon, rushed over .
She gave the others some instructions, getting them to continue bringing the Merfolk Race to the sh.o.r.e .
“Sorry, I’m carrying the Azure Dragon Palace right now and cannot offer you greetings . Can you tell me what’s going on with the Heavenly Starry Ocean and what all of you are doing?” Xiao Chen asked anxiously, then showed a helpless expression as he raised the Azure Dragon Palace in explication when he saw Yao Yan walking over to him alone .
[TL Note: The greetings include the cupped-fist salute hand gesture and not just speaking words . ]
Yao Yan saw that Xiao Chen seemed to be struggling . She asked, “Is this the Azure Dragon Palace? It looks like you already went in . Perhaps the Heavenly Starry Ocean can still be saved . ”
Xiao Chen’s expression changed, and he said sullenly, “Please tell me what in the world happened . ”
Yao Yan let out a long sigh and said, “It’s all over . Now, aside from the Cyclic Astral Palace, the Lunar Palace, and the Myriad Fiend Island, all the Holy Lands of the Heavenly Starry Ocean are in ruins . The other factions and sects were eradicated; it is as though it is doomsday . ”
“What exactly happened?!”
“You know about the sea markets that the Treasure Master controls, right? Originally, everyone thought that those huge Immortal statues were just decorations . However, they all came to life . Eighteen Immortal statues swept through the place; no one could stop them .
“The Heavenly Province Academy, the Five Poison Sect, and the Yinyang Paradise—three of the Immortal Holy Lands—were the first to be destroyed . Even the Sect Master of the Five Poison Sect could not flee in time, squashed into meat paste by the Immortal statue . ”
Yao Yan’s expression was calm, showing no signs of panic . However, her words sounded like a fantasy story, simply too shocking .
Xiao Chen forced out a smile and said, “You must be playing a prank on me . How could those dead Immortals come back to life?”
“I’m not kidding . Soon, this disaster will sweep through the entire oceanic world . At that time, there will not be a single peaceful place left . ”
This…
Xiao Chen remembered that the Myriad-Law Fiend Master once said that there was a danger hidden in the Heavenly Starry Ocean . Either it would not happen, or once it did, it would be doomsday; no one would be able to stop it .
At that time, Xiao Chen did not believe him . Unexpectedly, this came to pa.s.s in two months .
He also remembered that the Myriad-Law Fiend Master had told him to treasure the peaceful days he had . Surprisingly, the Myriad-Law Fiend Master’s words were on the mark . The two months of peace had been the calm before the storm .
“How’s the Dragon’s Gate? What’s Heavenly Star Island’s situation like?”
Xiao Chen quickly reacted, his expression distorting . Mo Chen did not even manage to send out a message . Could the Dragon’s Gate have been surrounded by the Immortal statues and instantly destroyed?
Dread flooded his entire body .
Xiao Chen really did not want something like the Blood Clad Sect holding all of the Dragon’s Gate hostage to happen again .
“I’m not sure . After I received the news, I immediately prepared the Merfolk Race for migration . The Chaotic Demonic Sea will not remain peaceful for long . I needed to get my people away from the oceanic world as soon as possible . ”
Yao Yan revealed an apologetic expression with some fatigue and helplessness . There was also a tinge of despair in the depths of her eyes .
