Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 1378: Emperor's Road Competition Part 1

In the Black Sea of the oceanic world, the thirteen Great Bandits gathered together.

They looked in the direction of the Kunlun Continent where there was a patch of scarlet clouds several hundreds of millions of kilometers away. Even from that distance, they could clearly make out that striking color.

Those scarlet clouds were very eye-catching. The shock that it brought already transcended space.

At this moment, not just them but every Martial Emperor in the Kunlun Realm felt fear in their hearts. Even people like the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea, people who stood at the top, stared at it from a distance.

"Blood Shark Sovereign, what's going on with those blood clouds? Even from such a distance, I can sense the bloody stench of blood rain."

"This is really sinister. It is not like we have not seen blood clouds before. However, this time, it feels completely different. Even with our cultivation, we can actually get affected by it."

"Perhaps it is an ominous sign. Blood clouds covering the sky indicates an impending disaster."

This mysterious phenomenon was something that even Primes could not explain. Naturally, the thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea could not understand it, either.

The Blood Shark Sovereign thought for a long time before replying, "It is hard to say. This thing is unprecedented and is hard to interpret."

"Should we go over and take a look? Based on the direction, it seems to be in the Tianwu Domain. Perhaps it might have something to do with the Azure Dragon King," someone said excitedly as his eyes lit up with a sudden thought.

"Bang!"

Just at this moment, a jade strip flew out from the Blood Shark Sovereign's chest and exploded.

The Blood Shark Sovereign said, "It looks like we have no choice but to go. The Azure Dragon King is in trouble. Is everyone willing to go with me?"

"Blood Shark Sovereign, what are you saying? You are not the only one who made a promise to the Azure Dragon King."

"That's right. The Azure Dragon King shows a boundlessly graceful bearing and values friendship highly. Helping him today would be helping ourselves. How can we not go?!"

"Haha, why not? I have been waiting for this day for a long time already."

The thirteen Great Bandits of the Black Sea did not show any hesitation at all. All of them agreed while laughing.

These thirteen were people who followed their hearts in the first place. Many times, when they agreed to help someone out, there was only one requirement: that they got along with that person.

These people were not like many of the righteous faction who weighed everything prudently. Those people would make several calculations, plot after plot, before coming to a final decision.

All those who had an agreement with Xiao Chen came to know of this news at the same time.

The Cyclic Astral Lord revealed a smile on his face when he saw the jade strip before him shatter. He said indifferently, "This finally happened. It looks like those five hundred thousand kilometers of blood clouds have something to do with you.

"Men! Get the Holy Son Chu Yang to come out of closed-door cultivation. I'll bring him to go and see a grand scene that might not be seen even in ten thousand years in the Kunlun Realm."

Similar scenes occurred in the Myriad Fiend Island, the Five Poison Sect, the Heavenly Province Academy, and the Yinyang Paradise.

Immediately, many Martial Emperors set off. This aura swept through the entire oceanic world. The seas roared and the waves surged. Even the ordinary people felt that something was off.

It was like something major was happening.

As for the Kunlun Continent, even the ordinary people could see those strange blood clouds, which incited panic in many places. Several cultivators unable to stifle their curiosity headed towards the blood clouds.

Nine-colored nine thousand steps and blood clouds with ten thousand steps. The two's tribulations shook the hearts of all the experts in the entire Kunlun Realm.

Several hidden Martial Emperors were made restless by this mysterious phenomena and came out of closed-door cultivation in advance. When they saw the nine-colored tribulation clouds competing with the five hundred thousand kilometers of blood clouds, their expressions changed drastically. Then, they rushed towards Meteor Trail City.

Mo Chen and the others, who had already reached the sixth layer of formations, could not sit still when they saw this change and hurried out.

In Meteor Trail City, when the Heaven Punishing Corpse God saw the scarlet Emperor's Road descend, he muttered, "That fellow seemed to have shattered the convening token earlier. All the Holy Masters and Primes of the oceanic world should be making their moves."

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, I prepared long ago. It will be fine for them if they do not come. If they come, I will make it such that they never return!"

Both the Heaven Punishing Corpse God and the East Mountain Ghost Monarch felt startled. They wondered what trump card the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign had for him to be so confident. Were the accumulations of the Deity Race that horrifying?

"Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign, how about we have a gentlemen's agreement this time? Let us allow these two juniors to take their tribulation without us seniors interfering."

Ying Zongtian and the Spirit Fox King—two Primes—soared into the air. They guarded the area above Xiao Chen's Emperor's Door and looked at the distant Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign while speaking.

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign smiled and said, "Gentlemen's agreement? Ying Zongtian, you are too hypocritical. If Xiao Chen was not undergoing his tribulation as well, would you have suggested this agreement?"

Ying Zongtian felt disappointed when he heard this. He opened his mouth to say something but refrained in the end.

The Spirit Fox King frowned and said, "Qitian, don't measure others by your own low standards. Before Xiao Chen started his tribulation, Little Brother Ying already arranged for our group not to interfere with Di Wuque's tribulation."

"Who is the one with low standards and who is the gentleman do not matter. Whoever is stronger is king. Just like now. It is the two of you begging me and not me begging you!"

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign remained unmoved as he smiled coldly, showing disdain in his eyes.

Ying Zongtian looked worriedly at Xiao Chen's scarlet bloody Emperor's Road and said sincerely, "Brother Qitian, this is not the time to show off and be ruthless. If we are not careful, we might end up burying the two outstanding talents of the Kunlun Realm with the best potential."

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign smiled coldly and said, "You are too naive. You alone are not enough to threaten me. No matter what, today, the Deity Dao Union will absolutely not let Xiao Chen succeed in his tribulation!"

"Big Brother Ying, there is no point wasting words on him. If he wants to fight it out, we will just fight it out. This old man is truly unable to endure this anymore!"

"He is too overbearing. Big Brother Ying, there is no need to make such a request of him!"

"That's right. We will stand guard here today. Let's see who dares to interfere with the Azure Dragon King's tribulation!"

The many Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors and Sovereign Martial Emperors soared into the air, furious at the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's vile character.

"Humph! You are just like mantises trying to stop a chariot. If not for not wanting to expose my trump cards, I would have already crushed your Supreme Sky Sect. Do you really think that you can resist the Deity Dao Union?! Attack!"

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign snorted coldly, and his expression turned completely cold.

Right after the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign spoke, the East Mountain Ghost Monarch and the Heaven Punishing Corpse God led a group of Martial Emperors to charge at Ying Zongtian. The three Holy Masters each stood in a direction, controlling the Holy Beast Totems to protect Di Wuque.

A miserable battle commenced under the blood clouds: Primes against Primes, Sovereign Martial Emperors against Sovereign Martial Emperors, and Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors against Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors.

The originally intense blood rain immediately turned even heavier.

The world trembled; the ground shook. Sand and stones flew about. The blood clouds separated and formed many horrifying scarlet tornadoes, howling in all directions.

The Supreme Sky Sect did not hold a numerical advantage in Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors. Many of the Deity Dao Union's Martial Emperors coldly eyed Xiao Chen, who had not even stepped onto his Emperor's Road yet, preparing to take action at any time.

Xiao Chen looked at the miserable battle in the sky. He somewhat vaguely understood why his Emperor's Road was a bloody scarlet.

His right hand, which held the saber, trembled slightly. His left hand clenched into a fist. His nails dug into his flesh, causing blood to drip out.

Xiao Chen felt some rage, but he temporarily buried it in the depths of his heart. Then, he took a deep breath and gently pushed off with his feet, leaping onto his Emperor's Road.

A strong wind blew. The Martial Emperors, who had been waiting for very long already, instantly made their moves. Many ghostly figures appeared in the strong wind—withered skeletons, demonic imprints appearing indistinctly with a strong murderous intent hidden in them.

These Martial Emperors did not dare to get too near to the scarlet Emperor's Road. They only attacked from a distance. However, that was already sufficient to pose a threat to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and moved quickly within the narrow space. Afterimages flickered as he quickly drew his saber.

"Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!"

Miserable shrieks rang by Xiao Chen's ears. It felt like the ghostly figures in the wind were real.

Three hundred afterimages merged. The instant Xiao Chen stepped onto the bloody road, a scarlet skull appeared far above the Emperor's Road, charging at him.

Flames leaped in the empty eye sockets of this scarlet skull, making anyone who looked at it tremble in fear from the depths of their hearts.

As this scarlet skull slowly approached the ten thousand bloody steps, it slowly magnified the fear in the heart.

This was a test of Xiao Chen's resolution. If he was not resolute enough, he would not be qualified to step onto this road.

"Whoosh!"

The scarlet skull grew increasingly larger. When it was close, it passed through Xiao Chen's body like the wind. All sorts of fear instantly magnified in his heart.

Xiao Chen's body wobbled at the side of the bloody road, looking like he would fall off at any moment.

"No!"

Mo Chen had already rushed over with the rest. When she saw this scene, tears welled up in her eyes, as she could not help exclaiming.

Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign's eyes lit up. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he stretched out a finger and prodded from five hundred thousand kilometers away.

The sky cracked, and a gigantic finger appeared. It was like a divine being broke through the sky and pressed towards Xiao Chen.
