Chapter 1398: Decisive in Killing
On the summit, Xiao Chen did not rush to make a move. Instead, he thought about what that Blood Demon Royal Hall disciple said.
The bloodlines of each of the eighteen Demon Monarchs all had their own Demon Royal Hall. This was something that Xiao Chen knew. Simply put, the Crown Scion of the Blood Demon Royal Hall was the designated heir of the Blood Demon Monarch and would be the next Demon Monarch.
Every Crown Scion was the most excellent outstanding talent among thousands of royal clan disciples. They were selected after going through cruel competition.
Talent, strength, and ability to scheme, one could not be lacking in any of these aspects. Otherwise, when one became the Demon Monarch in the future, the masses would not be convinced of it.
However, even until today, there had not been any news of a Demon Crown Scion coming to the Kunlun Realm. Could it be that there were Demon Crown Scions coming down this time? If that was the case, this would be somewhat interesting.
At the waist of the mountain, Eccentric Qin executed the Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art and started fighting the four Demon Martial Emperors.
With one swing, fiery light shot out, and with another swing, an overwhelming cold Qi spread. Half the sky filled with fire and the other half filled with frost.
Xiao Chen watched in silence, entering deep thought. This Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art was truly exquisite. It was hard to imagine that someone could balance it so perfectly.
"Whoosh!"
Something strange happened in the sky. The fire and frost merged. Snowflakes with fire on them drifted down.
The aura that came from Eccentric Qin also became like a fusion of ice and fire. The four Blood Demon Martial Emperors all showed grave expressions.
Even when fighting four alone, he is not at a disadvantage. His aura even seems slightly stronger.
Xiao Chen thought to himself, If not for the Blood Demon Royal Hall's royal clan disciple, given Eccentric Qin's strength, he should be able to leave easily.
Eccentric Qin balanced ice and fire perfectly. It would be perfect if the ice and fire fused.
Xiao Chen stretched his hand out of the window, and some snowflakes and fire landed on his palm.
After the snowflakes and fire that seemed to be in balance landed on Xiao Chen's hand, they quickly spun around. They contained a strong saber intent, and with their occasional clashes, they gave off intense explosions.
However, while on Xiao Chen's palm, an absolute force suppressed them. No matter how they exploded, the energy could not leave his palm.
Xiao Chen withdrew his hand. After taking one look, he frowned slightly. This method of merging was too crude. The snowflake and fire were simply layered over each other and not a true merger into one.
This was far from comparable to his Taiji Dao's ability to merge Yin and Yang.
However, this method was still an eye-opener. Although Xiao Chen could not use it, it broadened his horizons, formlessly increasing his accumulations.
What were accumulations? These were something profound and mysterious. Simply put, they were the things and information that one accrued.
At the waist of the mountain, that Blood Demon Royal Hall disciple nodded to himself. The Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art was indeed somewhat extraordinary. However, in Eccentric Qin's hands, it could not bring out the might that it should have.
It looks like the Crown Scion has his reasons for being interested in this Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art.
"It is time to end this!"
The Blood Demon Royal Hall disciple stepped forward and prepared to make a move to finish off Eccentric Qin and not waste any more time.
When Eccentric Qin noticed the killing Qi of the other party, he entered complete despair. Then, a crazy thought appeared in his head.
Just as Eccentric Qin was preparing to self-detonate and the Blood Demon Royal Hall disciple was about to make his move, a flash of saber light flickered at the mountaintop.
In that instant, the layer of ice-and-fire clouds in the sky split apart. Sunlight poured on the ground again. However, its brilliance was eclipsed by that saber light, so onlookers missed it.
In the next instant, a saber fell from the sky and directly chopped down. The saber light was like a pillar plunging with unparalleled sharpness. It forcefully pushed the four Demons away.
When the tip of the saber stabbed into the ground, a shock wave containing saber intent swept out with a 'boom.'
The shock wave struck the four Demons, knocking them back and causing them to vomit blood.
The place fell quiet. One saber silently remained stabbed in the ground, radiating a faint pride.
"Who is it?!"
The Blood Demon Royal Hall disciple's heart sank. His expression turned grave. Just based on this saber strike, this was an expert.
"Bang!"
What answered the Blood Demon Royal Hall disciple was a saber light. Pride soared into the air and chopped at the royal clan disciple.
"How quick!"
The Blood Demon did not have much time to react. He quickly drew his sword and used all his might. Then, in the time it took for a spark to fly, he knocked this saber away.
"Clang! Clang!" Pride suddenly seemed to lose all its spirituality and fell to the ground somewhat miserably as if it had lost its connection to its master.
"The Shadowless Saber Sovereign!"
The Blood Demon held up his sword and looked at the summit. When he saw that black war chariot, he finally guessed who had come.
When he thought about how he managed to knock away the Shadowless Saber Sovereign's Divine Weapon with one swing of his sword, his lips curled up somewhat cockily.
The Blood Demon smiled and said, "Shadowless Saber Sovereign, I thought you were very incredible. It turns out that you are only so-so. My Crown Scion is rather interested in you. Do you dare to come down and fight?!"
Right after the Blood Demon spoke, he gave off a scarlet light from his body. His eyes glowed red, and scarlet flames flared on the sword in his hand.
That was the mysterious phenomenon materialized when a Blood Demon royal clan disciple executed the Blood Fiend Art, their exclusive Martial Technique.
"Whoosh!"
Six Divine Weapons descended from the sky. Before the Blood Demon could react, an incredibly overwhelming saber intent knocked him into the air. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The Divine Weapons pierced through his arms, forehead, and calves at the same time, firmly pinning him to the ground.
One moment ago, the Blood Demon royal clan disciple was raring to fight. In the next moment, he no longer showed any signs of life. He did not even know how he died.
A Demonic World royal clan outstanding talent who was a Fourth Heaven Martial Emperor was already considered a top-rate expert in the Blood Demon Royal Hall.
However, when one faced Xiao Chen, he could not muster much of a resistance. Even when using his full power, he could not receive even half a move.
When facing Demons, Xiao Chen never showed mercy. He was decisive in killing and much stronger than he was five years ago.
Hums came from the Divine Weapons, scaring the four injured Blood Demons silly.
After letting out startled cries, the four Demons fled for their lives, not daring to remain a moment more.
At the top of the mountain, the black war chariot suddenly transformed, turning into a black throne. The throne's back faced the sky, and six beams of starlight in different colors descended. The two horses transformed into flood dragons and circled the throne once before entering the armrests, looking like dragon-shaped ornaments adorning the armrests.
On the throne, Xiao Chen wore a black mask that covered half his face. His arms were both propped on the armrests. The black throne filled with sky with starlight as it instantly descended to the waist of the mountain from the summit.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Pride and the other six Divine Weapons shot up and stabbed into the back of the throne.
"Shadowless Saber Sovereign, are you here to snatch the Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art as well?"
Eccentric Qin was shocked at Xiao Chen's strength. However, his temper remained eccentric. He did not display any gratitude to Xiao Chen for saving his life. Instead, he even flipped things around, believing that Xiao Chen was here to snatch his Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art.
As Xiao Chen sat on the throne, his expression remained calm. He spoke honestly. "Please do not misunderstand. I am indeed interested in the Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art. However, I do not have any intention of snatching it. Honestly speaking, with your talent, it is rather hard for you to delve into the Ice and Fire Twin Sabers.
"The Ice and Fire Dao does not necessarily need to be combined with twin sabers. You can try cultivating the Ice and Fire Dao with just one saber."
Eccentric Qin smiled coldly and retorted, "What a joke! Before this old man comprehended the Ice and Fire Dao, I became famous through my twin sabers. How can I abandon my roots and give up on the twin sabers? Furthermore, how can one saber endure the conflict between ice and fire?"
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen did not say anything. He stretched out his hand and pointed. A pile of dirt on the ground took human shape.
"Clang!" Pride, which was behind, shot out and landed in the hand of the human figure made of dirt.
With one saber in hand, the Taiji Saber Domain immediately spread out from the dirt man. Yin and Yang—attributes in greater opposition than ice and fire—merged perfectly in this one saber, forming a grand and majestic Taiji Diagram.
The dirt man occasionally turned into a dragon, moving its head and wagging its tail. Occasionally, it turned into a fish, nimble and unpredictable.
The dirt man straddled the line between Yin and Yang, appearing indistinct and showing thousands of changes. Eccentric Qin was stupefied when he saw this, staring at it without looking away.
The Yin and Yang energies turned into two True Dragons and merged into the saber in the dirt man's hand. Then, it sent out a saber light and cut the sky in half, revealing a resplendent and dazzling scene of the stars in the Starry Heavens.
Eccentric Qin looked at the stars distractedly as the barrier of the sky, which was cut open, slowly healed.
When the starlight completely disappeared, Eccentric Qin returned to his senses. Then, he looked around but could not find the Shadowless Saber Sovereign anywhere.
"Senior!"
Eccentric Qin dashed out to the cliffside, shouting somewhat despondently.
