Chapter 653: Wushen Sect Attacks!
Chapter 653: Chapter 653: Wushen Sect Attacks!
Back then, in the secret chamber, when Su Miaoyin drugged Chen Xiao behind her back, she never forgot.
Su Miaoyin also accepted this reality, knowing she was doomed, and chuckled, "Falling on this Heavenly Battle Platform doesn’t mean a real death; one only gets eliminated to the outside world. And would my sister truly bear to kill me?"
Her pitiful appearance made everyone’s hearts warm, even Emperor Xi Yue’s daughter was almost affected by her Charming Skill.
However, she managed to stabilize her mind, "This trick works on men, not on me."
"Then, maybe I’ll try it on your man next time." Su Miaoyin provocatively licked her lips, "Men with strong Yang energy are favorites of my Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox clan."
Angered, Xiyue trembled with rage and immediately slapped her, eliminating her from the arena.
Fairy Zhu Yan also looked calmly at Zi Yuan, "Victory or defeat, I’ve nothing to say, come on."
"That’s the rule of the Heavenly Battle Platform." Zi Yuan spoke flatly and eliminated her as well.
After absorbing the War Qi of Su Miaoyin and Fairy Zhu Yan, the War Qi on Xiyue and Zi Yuan instantly surged to an astonishing height of over two hundred feet.
The two women felt this power and were overjoyed.
"Congratulations to the Emperor’s daughter!"
"Congratulations to the First Miss!"
Martial Artists from the Xuantian Sect and the Great Zhou Imperial Family were all smiles, knowing that with such an enormous amount of War Qi, their Spiritual Power could increase significantly during Spiritual Inception!
Of course, they also understood clearly that the opportunity Zi Yuan and Emperor Xi Yue had was primarily due to Chen Xiao. Without Chen Xiao backing them, they would have struggled to reach today’s heights and become the ultimate victors.
Chen Xiao smiled faintly and said, "You all go inside for your Spiritual Inception."
"I’ll wait for you here."
Zi Yuan and Xiyue immediately led members of the two major forces into the Spiritual Inception Platform.
Soon, they entered a meditative state, letting their War Qi disperse and merge into that Spiritual Inception Platform, with dazzling light erupting from thirty-six black dragon columns, dragon shadows roaring, and in an instant, countless Spiritual Power poured into their bodies.
Then, people successively emerged from the Spiritual Inception Platform.
All had obtained considerable gains.
Cultivating inside the Spiritual Inception Platform for a period matched their usual painstaking cultivation for a year!
Zi Yuan and Xiyue, having much stronger War Qi, stayed longer for Spiritual Inception, and when others exited, the two of them still remained inside, breaking through from Transcendent Realm Peak to Half-step Transcendent.
After two days, strong auras finally burst forth from Zi Yuan and Xiyue, successfully advancing to Half-step Transcendent!
The two women were overjoyed.
As they exited the Spiritual Inception Platform, their joy was obvious on their faces.
This trip to Tianyuan Secret Realm brought them numerous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and valuable Martial Skills, while their cultivation smoothly advanced.
These delightful developments left them elated inside.
Though the improvements were not as exorbitant as Chen Xiao’s, it was already a remarkably good progress for them!
Moreover, with two hundred feet of War Qi, they had reached the pinnacle of Half-step Transcendent. Next, entering the Heavenly Realm is only a matter of time.
"Looks like the results are decent."
Chen Xiao slightly smiled, "It’s been nearly half a month since we entered here, we should soon be transported out of this place..."
Zi Yuan frowned slightly, "Every time the Tianyuan Secret Realm opens, the competition inside is brutal, and the outside is never peaceful, as various forces conduct their reckonings during this time..."
"Moreover, there’s something distinctly hostile about those Wushen Sect guys this time; once we’re out, we’re likely to face another fierce confrontation."
Generally speaking.
Those who seize great opportunities inside the Tianyuan Secret Realm become targets for others, hinging on whether their backing forces have the strength to protect them.
Emperor Xi Yue’s daughter said calmly, "Though the Wushen Sect is formidable, our Ancient Royal Clan isn’t to be trifled with, outside the Tianyuan Secret Realm’s suppression, it’s all about the top-tier fighting power of the major sects..."
Chen Xiao said lightly, "We’ll handle what’s thrown at us; if Wushen Sect truly stirs trouble, their fate will surely be dire!"
Can the Wushen Sect be stronger than his father?
When Chen Wushuang makes a move, those rabble would be crushed to smithereens.
Though Chen Xiao is well aware that his too-brilliant performance in the Tianyuan Secret Realm, combined with many enemies, means once he leaves, lots of attention will be aimed at him. But now, having already broken through to the Heavenly Realm, he’s not afraid of those guys!
If forced to use various means, at last, it’s only mutually assured destruction; he’ll suffer, but those targeting them will certainly suffer too!
Then the group left the Heavenly Battle Platform.
Roaming the empty Tianyuan Secret Realm, yet with no gains.
Half a day later, the space around them suddenly began to distort and deform dramatically.
They clearly felt this space starting to reject these outsiders’ presence.
The Heavenly Origin Fragments within their bodies emitted a faint purple light, surrounding and protecting their bodies.
Next.
Thunderclouds rolled in the sky, colors changed across the heavens and earth.
A grand and majestic voice resounded, "The time for the Tianyuan Secret Realm has ended. All trial participants, from now on, are expelled from the Tianyuan Secret Realm!"
"The next opening will be three years later."
When this voice reached the ears of Chen Xiao and the others, they felt the surrounding space twist, swallowing them all, and then they were plunged into endless darkness...
The special power of laws within the Tianyuan Secret Realm operated, transporting them to the outside world.
At this moment—
Outside the Tianyuan Secret Realm.
Many people were still waiting outside.
These were martial artists from various major forces, waiting for their sect’s martial artists to come out and see how many opportunities their sect had gained inside the Tianyuan Secret Realm.
There were also some who wanted to wait for those loose cultivators to come out and make a significant profit from them. After all, the Tianyuan Secret Realm restricted cultivation; experts from the Heavenly Realm couldn’t enter it, so they could only eagerly wait to see if anyone could bring something good out for them.
But, the atmosphere this time was very strange.
Because many camps from major forces had already been prematurely eliminated.
For instance, Shang Tianque and others from the Da Shang Royal Family were prematurely eliminated on the Heavenly Battle Platform by Chen Xiao. Upon learning this, the Da Shang Royal Family was particularly furious and had been waiting there, planning to take their revenge when Chen Xiao emerged!
Meanwhile, martial artists of the Da Xia Royal Family had not ceased their mockery of the Da Shang Royal Family over the past two days, saying how the Da Shang Royal Family had been forced into such a state by a mere boy, utterly losing face for the Ancient Royal Clan.
The numerous experts of the Da Shang Royal Family could only endure their anger, as indeed, none from the Da Xia Royal Family seemed to have been eliminated over the past two days.
Could it be that the people of the Da Xia Royal Family had obtained some great fortune after them?
Thinking of this made the martial artists of the Da Shang Royal Family indignant.
Failure isn’t that frightening, but the success of competitors is even more unsettling!
Just then, a sudden distortion erupted in the space before the Tianyuan Secret Realm...
Afterward, a black hole appeared.
Everyone became excited, "The survivors are about to be transported out!"
"We wonder how many will be left inside?"
The many experts of the Da Xia Royal Family began to laugh heartily, "Our Da Xia Royal Family persisted until the end. The opportunities we obtained shouldn’t fall short! This time, our Da Xia Royal Family has truly outdone some Ancient Clan that was prematurely eliminated!"
Shang Tianque and the others’ faces turned ashen, as if slapped in the face, feeling that the Da Xia Royal Family was too hateful, tremendously taunting the Da Shang Royal Family with every word.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
At this moment, over a hundred martial artists were transmitted out from the Tianyuan Secret Realm.
"People from the Xuantian Sect!"
"People from the Great Zhou Imperial Family!"
"And several juniors from the Sky Saber Sect!"
"Bai Lian from the seventeenth spot on the Transcendent List..."
"..."
The eyes of the crowd scanned over the martial artists who had been transmitted out of the Tianyuan Secret Realm.
But until the end, they did not see even a shadow of the Da Xia Royal Family members.
The faces of the Da Xia Royal Family members gradually turned ashen, "Why haven’t the members of our Da Xia Royal Family been transmitted out?"
It makes no sense, right?
Not a single member of their Da Xia Royal Family has appeared?
Just then, Shang Tianque sneered, "Looks like the hopes of your Da Xia Royal Family have been extinguished."
"Our Da Shang Royal Family members never saw anyone from the Da Xia Royal Family on the Heavenly Battle Platform within the Tianyuan Secret Realm. The only time we saw them was when entering the Ancient Sect’s ruins. Could it be that the Da Xia Royal Family met their end before even reaching the Heavenly Battle Platform?"
"If that’s the case, it’s quite unfortunate. Only if one falls on the Heavenly Battle Platform within the Tianyuan Secret Realm will there be laws to protect them. If they died elsewhere, then they truly have perished completely..."
"Impossible!"
An elder from the Heavenly Realm from the Da Xia Royal Family snorted coldly, "Who has such big guts, to dare kill our Da Xia Royal Family members?! Even if someone dared, it would only be by hitting in the shadows, how could they wipe out entirely?!"
Shang Tianque wore a smirk of schadenfreude, "There are many unimaginable things; don’t forget, a bunch of lunatics entered the Tianyuan Secret Realm this time!"
"That boy hanging around with the Xuantian Sect and Great Zhou Imperial Family isn’t afraid of heaven or earth, committing slaughter inside. Maybe he’s the one who killed your Da Xia Royal Family’s members!"
"Also... those guys from the Wushen Sect are fierce and murderous. Perhaps your Da Xia Royal Family members have become resentful souls in their Blood Soul Banner!"
The faces of the Da Xia Royal Family members turned utterly livid as they gave no response to Shang Tianque’s taunt, and instead fixed their eyes intently on the exit. But they waited for a long time without seeing Saint Xia and the other Da Xia Royal Family martial artists appear.
Finally, they lost their composure, their figures flashing as they headed towards Chen Xiao and the others.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh—"
They all landed in front of Chen Xiao and the others, powerful oppressive force crushing down on them!
