Chapter 1303: Chopping Down a Demon Race's Demonic Genius

The Lunar Shadow Saber landed gently on Qin Hu's shoulder, but it felt like a mountain. He could not get up despite doing everything he could.

"Don't think that I can't do anything to you when you wear this peak-quality King Grade set of Battle Armor. If I cannot trample you to death with one thousand stomps, I'll do it ten thousand times. If doing it ten thousand times does not work, then one hundred thousand times. I do not believe that you will still be alive after that!"

As Xiao Chen held the Lunar Shadow Saber, he stomped heavily, forcing a scream of pain from Qin Hu.

Xiao Chen casually glanced at the other old man beside Qin Hu. "Plop!" This old man immediately knelt down. "Azure Dragon King, we were left with no other choice. That's why we made a move on you. I hope your greatness will not care about the offense of our humble selves. Please let us off this time!"

With the white-haired old man kneeling, the arrogant stance of the two who wanted to take down Xiao Chen vanished.

Qin Hu felt he had no other choice but to beg. "Please let us off. I guarantee that we will not come and seek trouble for you anymore."

Xiao Chen said, "You should already celebrate if I don't come and seek trouble for you, and you are still thinking of seeking trouble for me? The grudge between the Three Holy Lands and me was firmly established long ago. Whether I let you off or not, the Three Holy Lands will not let me off."

"Tell me: what would it take for you to let us off?"

Now that the Sky Dome Dragon Formation was broken and they ended up in Xiao Chen's hands, Qin Hu and the white-haired old man no longer had any fighting spirit left.

Xiao Chen said indifferently, "I can let you all go. However, you will have to leave the Battle Armor on you behind!"

"Dream on!"

"This is the accumulation of a Holy Land. A Holy Land would have only ten of such sets at most. If we give them to you, then you alone would already have three sets. That can never happen."

The two were both shocked and furious. They did not expect Xiao Chen to have such a large appetite.

Xiao Chen's expression did not change. He said calmly, "This is where you are mistaken. The weak do not have a choice. Either you remove this Battle Armor on your own initiative or I will, taking it for myself after I kill you all.

"What is your choice? You have ten breaths of time to choose."

When facing Xiao Chen's strong stance, the two were somewhat at a loss as to what to do, but they did not have any other choice.

Ten breaths were not a lot of time for one to think. The two showed conflicted expressions, but in the end, they painfully agreed to Xiao Chen's demands.

After putting away the two sets of Battle Armor, Xiao Chen fished out Bai Yu from the rubble and took the Vermillion Bird Battle Armor as well.

Three sets of peak-quality King Grade Secret Treasures were a huge profit. However, Xiao Chen did not intend to let these three people off so simply.

These three people clearly came with a plot against him under someone's instructions. Something must have happened in the Kunlun Realm. Otherwise, the Three Holy Masters would not be bold enough to seek trouble for him this openly.

Just as Xiao Chen was about to question them, he felt three auras slowly approaching from a distance.

He looked up and saw three pale men, wearing scarlet clothes, moving closer through the cloud of dust and smoke.

Of the three, the person in the middle gave Xiao Chen the most dangerous feeling. When the three approached, Xiao Chen noticed the purple mark on the forehead of the man in the middle and frowned. "The Demonic World's royalty. Are you here for the Sky Dome Heart again?"

Logically speaking, the situation had not reached the point of shedding all cordiality and becoming openly hostile. After the first failed sneak attack, there should not be a second.

"Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen, it must be you. I have heard of your great name, even in the Demonic World," the Blood Demon royal in the middle said. After looking at the rubble around, he continued, "Not bad. Even I have not figured out how to break this Sky Dome Dragon Formation, yet you managed to do it so easily."

"A Demonic World's royal demonic genius!" Qin Hu and the other two old men were startled. The royal bloodlines of the eighteen Demon Monarchs were famous for their strengths.

With the Sky Dome Dragon Formation no longer around and their Battle Armor gone, the three old men's survival was now questionable.

Xiao Chen stepped forward and looked at this person, asking, "What are you here for? Just speak directly."

Since the other party had not taken advantage of the situation to make a move, they should not be here for the Sky Dome Heart but for something else.

"This is my clan's Young Master Xue. He is not here to snatch your Sky Dome Heart but to rescue Miss Manlan. After that, we will leave," the person to the right of Young Master Xue said coldly with an arrogant demeanor.

Xiao Chen did not care about this Young Master Xue. He said rudely, "Release a prisoner? After this person killed one thousand Martial Sages of my Sky Dome Palace, you want me to release her just like that? Impossible!"

"You are seeking death!"

Young Master Xue raised his hand to stop his two servants beside him. Then, he smiled and said, "Everything can be negotiated. What are your demands? Please let me know. As long as you are willing to let her go, we can negotiate it. Earlier, those three people wanted to kill you. Even so, you let them off after they agreed to your demands. This means that you are a reasonable person, right?"

Xiao Chen replied calmly, "Demands? Sure, give me a bottle of Primordial Pills, and I can pretend that I never saw you, letting you all leave."

When Young Master Xue heard this, he turned furious. This Xiao Chen was looking down on them, treating them as captives already. "Are you really acting recklessly?"

Xiao Chen smiled, and the Taiji force field appeared. Then, his figure flashed. The originally calm Xiao Chen unleashed an overwhelming aura when he took action, moving as fast as a dragon soaring into the sky.

Fast, hundred changes of dragon and fish. Azure Dragon soars into the sky, scattering the clouds around.

Xiao Chen did not draw the saber in his hand, just hacking it down on Young Master Xue.

"Whoosh!"

This startled Young Master Xue. What a fast speed! The two servants at the side stepped forward and shielded him, wanting to block Xiao Chen's saber strike.

"You think you can block it?"

Xiao Chen smiled coldly. His saber swished around energetically, appearing unpredictable. In an instant, the saber move showed hundreds of variations.

The two Blood Demons' faces sank, losing their arrogant contempt for Xiao Chen. Now, they used their full power and did their best to block.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In the blink of an eye, the two felt their arms go numb. They could not match Xiao Chen in speed, unable to keep up with his rhythm.

"I'll do it!"

Young Master Xue narrowed his eyes and charged forward. The two servants released their bated breaths and quickly moved aside.

"Good timing!" Xiao Chen laughed loudly. His aura flourished and pressed down, forcing the three to retreat.

Figures flickered, leaving afterimages. Despite fighting three people by himself, Xiao Chen still held the upper hand, forcing the three to retreat continuously.

The rhythm of the battle was too fast. In a mere few breaths, they had already exchanged hundreds of moves. Young Master Xue and his two servants used their full strength, not holding anything back at all. Even so, they were still being suppressed.

Slow!

Amid the fast rhythm, Xiao Chen suddenly slowed down. Within the Taiji force field, Young Master Xue and his servants also appeared to have slowed down.

The three were caught off guard. Before they understood what happened, Xiao Chen heavily swung his saber at them, knocking all three back.

The two weaker servants immediately vomited blood as they rolled on the ground.

Young Master Xue moved back one hundred steps before he stabilized his footing. When he looked at Xiao Chen, his eyes filled with deep fear.

Young Master Xue had used his Blood Demon royal bloodline earlier, gaining horrifying strength as a result, and did not fear Xiao Chen's Primordial Energy. However, Xiao Chen's earlier techniques were completely unheard-of; Young Master Xue could not keep up with the rhythm at all.

The Blood Demon royal found himself easily played around in the palm of Xiao Chen's hand. It was as he expected. The problematic part was not scary. The scary thing was this unexpectedly sudden change.

"How strong exactly are you?" Young Master Xue asked sullenly.

Xiao Chen replied indifferently, "Unrivaled under Martial Emperor!"

"Unrivaled?" Young Master Xue snorted coldly. "Frog in the well. Don't think that after obtaining some ancient Martial Dao, you have the capital to boast like that. Use the secret technique!"

[TL Note: "Frog in the well" is a Chinese idiom meaning narrow-minded and unable to see the larger picture.]

"Yes!"

The two servants nodded, and the three suddenly turned into bats filling the sky. Thousands upon thousands of bats coalesced, and Young Master Xue appeared before Xiao Chen again. This time, his aura was more than twice as strong as before, exuding a faint Emperor's Might.

Xiao Chen frowned and said, "Emperor's Might? To think the Demonic World has such a secret technique that allows three people to merge and increase the main body's strength by severalfold."

"The time for negotiations is over. You are not willing to let our people go, forcing me to use this forbidden art. You sought this for yourself!" Young Master Xue shouted coldly and threw a punch at Xiao Chen. With this punch, a scarlet light filled the sky as if the attack came out from a sea of blood.

A vast and boundless sea of blood appeared before Xiao Chen. Young Master Xue rode on a wave with a thousand waves soaring to the sky behind him. As he punched, the sea of blood spread over.

A vast pressure surged over with the sea of blood. Amid the waves, Xiao Chen appeared incredibly small.

"These royal-bloodline demonic geniuses cannot be underestimated." Xiao Chen shook his head slightly and drove all of his Primordial Energy, splitting it in half. Emperor's Might immediately infused into the Taiji force field.

Xiao Chen completely unleashed his aura of kingship. His figure moved as he brandished the Lunar Shadow Saber in its scabbard and received this punch.

"Hu chi!"

The force of the punch was too strong. Xiao Chen's body spun together with the Taiji force field, slowly neutralizing the force.

Young Master Xue's aura was overwhelming. After sending one that one punch, he launched a barrage of attacks, raining them down quickly like a violent storm.

Xiao Chen countered speed with slowness. His figure moved like a small boat on the vast ocean, leaving behind afterimages.

To others, the space where the two were was spinning around. Scenes flickered continuously like fleeting shadows. It looked very chaotic; no one could make out what was happening.

Xiao Chen's tight defense made the strong Young Master Xue very anxious and impatient, forcing him to continuously increase his speed.

After another thousand moves, Xiao Chen clearly sensed Young Master Xue slowing down slightly. Obviously, the Blood Demon could not keep up the pace and wanted to pull himself out.

Fast!

Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Chen instantly drew the Lunar Shadow Saber. All the light within one kilometer vanished. The instant he drew the saber, darkness cloaked him and the saber in his hand.

It was not that the place turned dark. It was that the light was too intense, chasing away all other light.

This Saber Technique was called Eternal Light!

[TL Note: This Eternal Light is different from the Eternal Light in Chapter 119. That one was a Sword Technique, part of the Astral Swordplay.]

Young Master Xue, who just thought about retreating, could not dodge in time, getting struck by the saber. The scarlet light vanished, and bats flew about frantically in the air.

"Bang!" The bats regathered, and Young Master Xue reappeared, falling to the ground and vomiting blood.

Young Master Xue looked at Xiao Chen opposite him with horror in his eyes. Unrivaled under Martial Emperor, there was some truth to these words.

Just based on what Young Master Xue knew, even the top outstanding talents of the eighteen Demon Monarchs' royal bloodlines might not be able to receive that final saber strike.

That saber strike was too horrifying. It was so strong, beyond Young Master Xue's understanding. There were hints of a strong Saber Domain within it.

However, while he had seen many experts of the Demonic World who comprehended a Saber Domain, not a single one of them could do what Xiao Chen did.

Xiao Chen's Saber Domain was misleading. It already transcended a regular person's understanding of a domain as if he had chosen a path that no one had ever taken before.
