Chapter 1811 (Raw 1823): Dreams as a Saber
Xiao Chen had never been one to suffer a loss lying down. How could he not retaliate after being ambushed for no reason at all?
After leaving, he soon returned and hid.
Now, Xiao Chen could not help celebrating. Fortunately, he had returned.
Otherwise, if these two worked together, attacking him until he was helpless, he would have been in great danger.
“Who is it? Acting all mysterious!” Qing Ziyu shouted coldly, and the Dao disk behind the ghost pennant in his hand immediately merged back into it.
“Roar!”
A ferocious roar came from the ghost pennant. Then, after a burst of black light, the thousand-winged centipede slowly emerging turned into a black flood dragon.
Just a portion of the black flood dragon’s body came out, and it was already three kilometers long, wrapping around Qing Ziyu.
Qing Ziyu only showed his head. His caution was clear to see.
However, since Xiao Chen revealed himself, he naturally was fully confident. He had long since been storing up power already.
Seven Kill Seal, Resolving the Mundane!
Xiao Chen had already formed the Seven Kill Seal in preparation, and the killing Qi surging out of his body intensified sevenfold.
After that, the killing Qi instantly gathered and infused into the eternal saber light materialized by Resolving the Mundane.
“Ka ca!”
Before the flood dragon in the ghost pennant could emerge completely and protect Qing Ziyu’s entire body, a scarlet light flashed, and Qing Ziyu’s head fell off. The flood dragon could not block this strand of saber light at all.
That horrifying flood dragon turned into demonic smoke and returned to the ghost pennant.
“Boom!” Qing Ziyu’s head exploded. Flickering with a black light, his will of soul sped to the ghost pennant.
“Hahaha! Brother Ziyu, are you thinking of trying to seize my body and come back to life?”
Si Hongyi swung his hand wide and snatched away Qing Ziyu’s ghost pennant.
“Si Hongyi, you actually want to eat me. Damn it! To think that I was thinking of working with you.”
“Stop the pretense. If I died, you would make a move on me too.”
Then, Si Hongyi tossed Qing Ziyu’s soul into his mouth, directly consuming it.
Si Hongyi looked at Xiao Chen, who had a strange expression. As he chewed Qing Ziyu’s soul, he smiled. “Although the Demonic Cultivation Technique of our Heavenly Eagle Castle consumes the physical body to improve our cultivation, consuming souls also brings many wondrous effects. Little Brother, there is no need to give me such a strange look.”
This was indeed a person of the Demonic Dao. The way he did things was completely lawless.
Even after sneak-attacking and killing Qing Ziyu in one move, Xiao Chen did not relax at all.
This Si Hongyi seemed like an impressive character.
Although the other party’s cultivation was not high—merely peak early-stage Star Venerate—the feeling he gave Xiao Chen was no weaker than that of late-stage Star Venerates outside the Ash Gray Sea.
Are the core disciples of Rank 6 sects all this horrifying?
“Many thanks for making a move and killing this Qing Ziyu. If he brought out the full power of his Ghost Dragon Pennant, even I would not be able to deal with him.”
Smiling, Si Hongyi continued, “In order to thank you, when I consume you later, I will add some pepper. Hahahaha!”
While wildly laughing, Si Hongyi ferociously tossed his demonic ax at Xiao Chen.
“Dang!”
In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen launched a saber strike. Sparks flew as he knocked back the demonic ax.
The demonic ax flew for ten kilometers before crashing into a peak and crushing it.
Xiao Chen’s arm numbed, and his saber trembled. Cracks had opened on his palm; he felt a stinging pain.
“Interesting. No wonder you dare to barge into the one hundred thousand great peaks alone. However, I am now even more interested in you.”
What Si Hongyi meant by even more interested naturally referred to eating Xiao Chen.
Si Hongyi roared and summoned back his demonic ax, then charged at Xiao Chen once more.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
Xiao Chen clashed head-on for three moves. He backed away one kilometer with each exchange.
After the three moves, the Heavenly Thunder Eagle, which was waiting in the sky, spotted an opportunity and swooped down at Xiao Chen. However, the ferocious Demon Blood Vulture blocked its charge midway.
At least it has a conscience and knows to protect its master.
“Little fellow, you are not strong enough.” Si Hongyi laughed heartily as he brandished his demonic ax.
Right after Si Hongyi spoke, he charged at Xiao Chen again.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Si Hongyi’s strength was exceptionally horrifying. Every step he took left deep footprints in the ground. The nearby mountain range started shaking as well.
Xiao Chen’s heart remained as calm as still water. He did not bring out the full power of the Tyrant Saber, using only twenty percent of its might, together with his saber skills and Thunder Great Dao.
As Xiao Chen fought Si Hongyi, he moved back continuously, slowly familiarizing himself with how to counter this bull-headed way of fighting.
Xiao Chen felt that Si Hongyi was not simply using brute force.
As Si Hongyi swung his ax, the ground under his feet, the demonic clouds in the sky, the grass in the crevices, and all the other things in the world seemed to have their power forcibly sucked into his body.
Hence, the might that Si Hongyi erupted with was so horrifying.
Xiao Chen had no way to fight this. With just a gentle clash, he immediately felt an unmovable power.
So, that is the case.
The Demonic Cultivation Technique that he cultivates is not like the borrowing of the Righteous Dao. Instead, it wrests away. I can see that everywhere he passes, the grass withers and the ground dries up, losing all signs of life.
If I do not use my full power and fight against such an preposterous fighting method, I will get severely injured in less than ten moves, and the fight will be over.
Xiao Chen saw the trick behind this and thought for a moment before figuring out a countermeasure.
He had to make Si Hongyi falter; even just an instant would be enough.
Dreamlike Mundane World!
Xiao Chen switched Saber Techniques and executed the Saber Technique that he developed from Breaking the Mundane by complicating the simple.
He exchanged moves with Si Hongyi like before, moving back one kilometer with every clash.
However, as he did so, he also silently laid out a dream. This was Dreamlike Mundane World’s first move, Creating Dreams with the Saber.
After another three moves, Si Hongyi suddenly guffawed as he created a huge opening in Xiao Chen’s defense.
It looked like Xiao Chen would be chopped in half in the next moment.
“You can be proud that you were able to last ten moves against me as a Major Primal Core Venerate.”
Si Hongyi strode forward and swung his ax down from above. While he launched his strike, he also fell for Xiao Chen’s Saber Technique.
Entering Dreams with the Saber!
Xiao Chen showed no emotion on his face as the saber light in his hand suddenly changed. It turned gentle and soft, entrancing and charming, dreamy and flowing.
“That is!”
Si Hongyi’s actions paused. He felt sleepy all of a sudden, and the surrounding scene changed dramatically.
In his daze, Si Hongyi felt like he became a god. He could cover the skies with his hands, pluck the stars, and pull down the moon. Nothing was impossible for him. With a wave of his hand, the heads of many experts fell. Amid his loud laughter, Demonic Dao experts everywhere knelt in worship.
Dreams as a Saber!
Immediately, Si Hongyi startled awake. The instant he opened his eyes, he discovered that a god appeared in front of him.
Everything that Si Hongyi dreamed of materialized on Xiao Chen. Dreams as a Saber, using one’s dreams to take one’s head.
“This… How is this possible?!”
Si Hongyi was horrified, and his Demonic Cultivation Technique paused. As he swung his ax, he could no longer rob the things of the world of their power.
The beautiful scene of the mundane was but a dream!
Xiao Chen’s seemingly gentle saber strike knocked away the demonic ax in Si Hongyi’s hand and pierced Si Hongyi’s forehead.
At the same time, Xiao Chen brought out fifty percent of the Tyrant Saber’s might. A tyrannical and powerful aura surged into Si Hongyi’s body from the saber.
Si Hongyi did not get any opportunity to turn the situation around. The aura rammed through his body, shattering his meridians and scattering all of his Veritable Essence Energy.
“Your saber…is even stronger than his Ghost Dragon Pennant.”
After saying his last words, Si Hongyi silently fell backward, his body showing no signs of life.
Xiao Chen withdrew his Tyrant Saber, and blood spurted out. His expression remained the same, calm and at ease, neither joyful nor grieving.
After he sheathed his saber, his figure flashed to Qing Ziyu’s headless body.
Xiao Chen took Qing Ziyu’s storage ring and extracted a secret manual tucked into his clothes.
What kind of secret manual is this? He goes so far as to keep it on his body. It means that he needs to practice this every day.
“Ten Thousand Soul Fantasy Demonic Art!”
This should be what Qing Ziyu used earlier. Xiao Chen took a quick look and immediately frowned heavily.
The secret manual recorded many terrifying things like how to search for and collect all sorts of aggrieved spirits.
It required different methods to torture people: scaring one to death, literally humiliating one to death, making one die of despair by making one personally witness the slaughter of all of one’s loved ones…
The various methods were very startling. The cultivation and forging of the ghost pennant completely went against heaven.
This included details of a Mother and Child Connected Heart Soul, a resentful soul created by killing both mother and child the moment the child was born.
Originally, Xiao Chen had some expectations of the Ghost Dragon Pennant. Now, he was not even willing to touch it.
Hence, he put away the Ten Thousand Soul Fantasy Demonic Art to use when he met the people of the Fantasy Cloud Sect later.
Then, he looked around and fixed his gaze on Si Hongyi’s body, wondering what would be on him.
