Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation Chapter 748: Extremely Inconceivable

Chapter 748: Extremely Inconceivable

“Pu ci!” Wu Yuankai spat out some blood, and his body flew back a kilometer before everyone’s astonished gazes.

He’s chasing!

Wu Yuankai roared furiously in his heart when he saw Xiao Chen charging over on the Azure Dragon image. It was not that he could not withstand Xiao Chen’s Return of the Azure Dragon but that he did not have enough time to acc.u.mulate Quintessence.

Wu Yuankai’s expression filled with murderous intent. He made up his mind that as long as Xiao Chen got near again, he would teach him a hard lesson.

However, when Xiao Chen got within a hundred meters, he suddenly let out a loud roar. The roar of a True Dragon resounded like thunder, reverberating inside Wu Yuankai’s mind.

Wu Yuankai’s head buzzed, causing him a splitting headache.

Fortunately for Wu Yuankai, he was a half-Sage. His Mental Energy was far more than that of a regular person or a Spirit Beast. He frantically circulated his Mental Energy and recovered.

However, at this moment, Xiao Chen wielded a dragon-shaped saber Qi and sent out another Return of the Azure Dragon.

“Bang!”

Another loud sound rang out as Wu Yuankai blocked and went flying back another kilometer.

“Something is wrong. Since when has Wu Yuankai been unable to even block such a Heaven Ranked Martial Technique?”

“Unexpectedly, someone knocked him back twice. Such a thought is extremely inconceivable!”

The cultivators watching on the distant rooftops felt like their eyes were going to drop out when they saw Wu Yuankai repeatedly getting knocked back.

Wu Yuankai stabilized the surging Quintessence in his body and glanced at Xiao Chen. Then, he discovered that Xiao Chen’s Quintessence had somewhat diminished.

Compared to the start, the electric lights on the saber had already dimmed significantly. Now, only weak arcs of electricity leaped around on the saber.

Regular Superior Grade Martial Monarchs could execute Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques three times before falling into a feeble state, losing all combat prowess.

Only someone like Xiao Chen, who refined his Quintessence twice at every grade and also consumed the thousand-year-old White Nascent Fruit, could exchange a hundred moves with Wu Yuankai, executing Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques continuously, without showing much fatigue.

“Let’s see what other trump cards you have!”

Wu Yuankai’s figure flashed forward as he wiped away the blood at one corner of his mouth. He revealed a ferocious gaze as he said frostily, “Are there any more? Take out everything you have!”

Xiao Chen’s white robes fluttered, and he casually sheathed his Lunar Shadow Saber. Then he gave Wu Yuankai a calm look. “You don’t have much Quintessence left, either, right? If you can really steel yourself to do it, by all means, make your move. Even if you kill me, your enemies will kill you afterwards, when your Quintessence is exhausted.”

Indeed, Wu Yuankai only had about a third of his Quintessence left. Xiao Chen had caught him off guard several times, forcing him to expend several more times Quintessence than Xiao Chen did.

If Wu Yuankai had not formed those ten-odd Heavenly Sage Laws, he would have run out of Quintessence long ago. Thus, his condition was no better than Xiao Chen’s.

“Thinking of scaring me away? You are still too inexperienced!”

Wu Yuankai’s face sank. He felt that he doubted himself too much. He should just finish off this fellow in one punch.

Xiao Chen remained unfl.u.s.tered, the depths of his eyes as calm as the still waters of an ancient well. He circulated all his Vital Qi and clashed head-on with Wu Yuankai’s dark-gold gloves.

“Bang!”

One thousand tons of force’s worth of Vital Qi burst forth. Fist and fist collided, giving off ripples that spread into the surroundings.

Xiao Chen took a hundred steps back. Although he negated most of the force from his opponent’s punch, he did not have a Quintessence s.h.i.+eld up, relying instead on his strong physical body and the light barrier around his bones. However, the remnant force still injured him significantly.

Blood trickled out from a corner of Xiao Chen’s lips. His delicate face paled.

“Body temperer! You are a body temperer!”

During the clash of the two fists, Wu Yuankai seemed to have the advantage. But now he appeared more panicked than Xiao Chen.

Not refuting him, Xiao Chen said carefreely, “I can bring out one thousand tons of force with a casual punch. After burning my Vital Qi, I can bring out more than one thousand and four hundred tons of force. It will not be a problem for me to exhaust the rest of your Quintessence. Do you think I am lying?”

d.a.m.n it! Wu Yuankai felt extremely conflicted. He wished that he could kill Xiao Chen right now. However, he knew that Xiao Chen had not lied. Even if he killed Xiao Chen, he would most likely exhaust most of his Quintessence.

Many people in Hunluo City hated Wu Yuankai to the bone. There were even more people who wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h his treasures.

For Wu Yuankai now, killing Xiao Chen equaled forcing himself into a dead end. He casually looked around and saw many gazes filled with ill intentions.

“You still do not want to scram? Do you really want to lose your old life here?” Xiao Chen’s shout was as loud and earsplitting as thunder, making the hesitant and undecided Wu Yuankai tremble in startlement.

When Xiao Chen humiliated and scolded Wu Yuankai, Wu Yuankai wanted to kill him immediately. However, Wu Yuankai noticed the unending sharpness in Xiao Chen’s eyes and his determined aura.

Wu Yuankai unconsciously shrank back. Pointing furiously at Xiao Chen, he said, “Just you wait. Ten days from now, I will come for your life.”

After saying that, Wu Yuankai flung his arm down and quickly retreated. The fine Heavenly Sage Laws behind him undulated shakily. It was clear how morose Wu Yuankai felt.

“Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!”

Several figures with ill intentions followed in Wu Yuankai’s wake, disappearing into the dark night.

Within the Immortal Spirit Ring, Ao Jiao opened her eyes wide in incredulity and exclaimed, Xiao Chen, you really managed to scare him away!

Xiao Chen said disapprovingly, This old thing commits all sorts of evil, killing countless people. He acts like he does not fear death, but in fact, he fears it more than others. After his edge is gone, no matter how strong he is, he’s no threat.

Ao Jiao said, You better be careful. I feel several gazes focused on you.

That is fine. Wu Yuankai already lured away the big fishes. If the small fries want to test me out, I do not mind starting a ma.s.sacre. Come, let’s go straight to the auction.

Indeed, it was as Ao Jiao said. Not much later, a tall and slender black-robed male stopped Xiao Chen. This black-robed male gave off an aura different from others’, a Fiend’s aura; it felt sinister and strange.

Unexpectedly, he was a Fiend Race loose cultivator. His cultivation looked to be about Superior Grade Martial Monarch. If he revealed his true body, he should be able to display the strength of a peak Superior Grade Martial Monarch.

“Show some initiative and toss out your spatial ring. Then, I can give you a quick death.”

The Fiend Race loose cultivator stuck out a long, red tongue, giving off hissing noises.

Just kill him straight. This fellow is a Snake Race cultivator of the Fiend Domain. If he reveals his true body, he will be especially difficult to deal with, Ao Jiao said quickly from the Immortal Spirit Ring.

Xiao Chen took off the Universe Ring on his finger and casually tossed it to the Fiend Race loose cultivator.

Evidently, the Snake Race cultivator had not expected such a decisive att.i.tude since he took a moment to react. Then, he laughed loudly and stretched his hand out to catch the Universe Ring.

“Brat, you are quite wise. I can choose to spare you.”

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

While the Snake Race cultivator’s eyes were focused entirely on the Universe Ring, Xiao Chen’s Vital Qi surged throughout his whole body, giving off rumbling sounds.

Xiao Chen quickly stomped three times. One thousand tons of force struck the ground, causing nonstop tremors.

The quakes startled the Snake Race loose cultivator, but Xiao Chen had already arrived before him. Xiao Chen burned half his Vital Qi and sent out a punch.

A fist wind surged, and an immense force quickly burst out. Explosions resounded, shaking the air and creating buzzing sounds. The roofs of the surrounding buildings immediately caved in.

After burning the Vital Qi, the force of Xiao Chen’s attack increased to one thousand and four hundred tons. This force penetrated the Snake Race cultivator’s protective Quintessence s.h.i.+eld. The violent blow instantly shattered all of the Snake Race cultivator’s internal organs.

The Snake Race cultivator’s hand slumped down limply. Then, he vomited a mouthful of blood before keeling over. With a flash, Xiao Chen grabbed the Universe Ring from midair.

After looking around coldly, Xiao Chen waved his hand and continued forward without turning back.

The several stupid and rash figures hidden in the darkness no longer dared to try anything after seeing this scene. They all stared in horror and astonishment as Xiao Chen left.

“The news of Wu Yuankai turning tail from a nameless fellow will probably spread throughout the city by tomorrow.”

“Wu Yuankai has done many evil things, and his infamy reached far and wide. Unexpectedly, a Superior Grade Martial Monarch could scare him away with a shout.”

“I wonder where this person came from. I have never heard of him.”

“Recently, Hunluo City has been extraordinarily turbulent. Many hidden Martial Sages rushed over for the sake of the Thunder Emperor’s broken sword. I also heard that the top true inheritors of the six major factions are all here as well.”

Whispers of discussion broke out among the crowd. As they watched Xiao Chen leave, they sighed endlessly.

------

When the sky turned bright, Xiao Chen appeared below the Flouris.h.i.+ng Heaven Auction House.

Through unknown means, the Flouris.h.i.+ng Heaven Auction House imposed calm and peace on the area within three kilometers of it. Several ferocious loose cultivators even forcefully repressed their own baleful auras.

This environment created a stark contrast to the usual chaos of Hunluo City.

Many cultivators had come to the Flouris.h.i.+ng Heaven Pavilion for the Flouris.h.i.+ng Heaven Auction taking place in three days.

According to the news Xiao Chen had obtained, the auction three days from now would contain not only the Thunder Emperor’s broken sword but also many other precious treasures.

Secret Treasures, Martial Techniques, Medicinal Pills, natural treasures, Alchemic Recipes…everything that should be there would be there. He could antic.i.p.ate a bustling scene as this was Hunluo City’s only auction.

Following the crowd, Xiao Chen could feel several strong cultivators. He already noticed four or five Martial Sages hiding their auras.

The indiscernible Heavenly Sage Laws behind these people were about the width of a finger. There were also many of them. As they swayed up and down in waves, vast Spiritual Energy poured into the Sages’ bodies.

The threadlike Heavenly Sage Laws of Wu Yuankai were nothing compared to these people’s. The disparity was simply like the gap between a child and an adult.

If these Martial Sages were to fight Wu Yuankai, they could kill him in one punch.

Furthermore, the auction had not started officially. Three days from now, there would be even more Martial Sages.

Xiao Chen frowned slightly. Given the one hundred thousand Astral Coins on him, he would not be able to obtain the Thunder Emperor’s broken sword. Trying to s.n.a.t.c.h it would be all the more impossible.

After entering the Flouris.h.i.+ng Heaven Pavilion, all sorts of treasures in display cabinets immediately dazzled Xiao Chen. The magnificent hall had many auction items arranged neatly.

He looked around casually and discovered several things that interested him. However, when he saw the buyout price, he smiled bitterly and dismissed them.

The items on exhibit in advance would not be the highlights of the auction. In other words, the official auction was sure to have more stunning treasures than the ones before Xiao Chen’s eyes now.

Xiao Chen muttered to himself, “I wonder, what is the background of this Flouris.h.i.+ng Heaven Pavilion for them to be able to hold such a large auction in Hunluo City, the provincial capital?”

When Ao Jiao heard this, she said, They have great origins. Five thousand years ago, the Flouris.h.i.+ng Heaven Pavilion already existed. Their auctions could be found throughout the entire Kunlun Realm, even in the inner city of Supreme Sky City.
