“This is such a rare opportunity. Many people wouldn’t even dare to think about it.
“You finally got this opportunity, but you don’t want it? Are you kidding me?
“You–Alas!”
Seeing Ye Xiao’s indifferent look, Jiang Chen was both anxious and angry.
After all, not everyone would choose to sacrifice their true meanings of martial arts techniques like Azure Dragon did.
More importantly, not everyone’s true meanings of martial arts techniques had such value!
It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
If he missed it, he would not be able to do it again. He might even regret it for the rest of his life.
The current him was like a student who saw a good opportunity for a student and wanted to let the student grasp it. However, that student did not study hard.
If there was a word that had to be said, it could only be described as regretting that he did not meet his expectations.
After all, he was not Ye Xiao’s senior and could not beat him. Otherwise, even if he had to tie him up, he would still tie him up.
However, Ye Xiao was still calm, and his expression was very indifferent.
“I’m not joking with you. I also know that Senior Azure Dragon wants the best for me, but I don’t need it anymore.”
Jiang Chen’s pupils constricted.
What did he mean by ‘I don’t need it anymore’?
Ye Xiao had asked him to help him contact the Emperor realm martial arts experts above the starry sky.
That was because he still needed that last bit of enlightenment.
If he had that last bit of enlightenment, he could advance to the Emperor realm anytime and anywhere.
Could it be… Could it be… Ye Xiao had found that enlightenment in the few days he had been away? He had advanced to the legendary Emperor realm?
At that moment, Jiang Chen suddenly shivered.
He opened his eyes wide and stared at Ye Xiao in disbelief. He said,
“Ye Xiao… You… You… Have you advanced?”
Ye Xiao nodded.
“I’ve been lucky recently.”
Boom!
After Ye Xiao confirmed it, Jiang Chen felt like he had been hit by another big bomb, the biggest one of all.
A heavenly talent!
A heavenly talent!
A 21-year-old emperor of the human world. With such talent, he would definitely have a chance to lead the Nine Provinces’ human race to a more glorious future.
Jiang Chen felt like he had seen a rising star.
No, it was a brilliant star that had risen and was still rising!
Jiang Chen felt his eyes were a bit sore and hot. He could even imagine that his eyes were a bit red.
He was happy for Ye Xiao, but he was also happy for the Nine Provinces.
There was a touching saying. Jiang Chen felt it suited his mood.
‘Why do I always have tears in my eyes? Because I love this land so much!’
He saw hope for the future of the Nine Provinces in Ye Xiao.
The hope for the future of the Nine Provinces was the young man in front of him.
“Although I don’t need senior Azure Dragon’s creation of martial arts techniques anymore, he has my best interests at heart. I have to show him my gratitude.
“This flower contains my gratitude to Senior Azure Dragon.”
Jiang Chen rubbed his eyes.
“Good! Good! I’ll definitely bring this flower to the Azure Dragon.”
He had understood what Ye Xiao meant. If he had guessed correctly, that flower contained a more powerful creation of martial arts techniques.
Ye Xiao wanted to help the Azure Dragon advance to the last level so that the Nine Provinces would have another Emperor realm martial arts expert!
That way, the Nine Provinces would have another Emperor realm martial arts expert. The Nine Provinces’ strength would also rise to a higher level. Facing the invasion of the star beasts in the future, it would also relieve a lot of pressure.
That was also the Azure Dragon’s blessing.
If it was not for the Azure Dragon being willing to sacrifice his true intent of martial arts to help Ye Xiao, he might not have been able to obtain Ye Xiao’s gift.
In the end, everything was destined.
…
At the same time, in the mountains to the south of Jianghai city, a few figures stood in the wilderness, staring straight at the highest peak.
On the peak of the mountain, there was a figure dressed in plain clothes, carrying a long sword on his back, standing proudly in the wilderness.
He did not have any imposing manner, and it even looked as if he did not exist anymore.
If it was not for the fact that they were powerful and had good eyesight, and that they knew that he would appear there, they might not have been able to find him at all.
That was because he was too powerful, so much so that they could not even sense his aura.
That figure was the Azure Dragon, the Sword Emperor.
The figures in the mountains were the Fire Saber Vermilion Bird, the White Tiger, the Saber God Li Liushui, and the Sword Saint Lu Qingshan.
There were only four of them.
They were the only ones who knew about that.
The Sword Saint Lu Qingshan as well as the Saber God Li Liushui had asked the venerable Black Tortoise Jiang Chen before they had the right to come there. They wanted to take that opportunity to learn the way of the sword. They wanted to gain some insights so that they could advance to the King realm.
After all, it was a rare opportunity. Not everyone had the chance to witness such a world-shaking battle.
It would be a great thing for the Nine Provinces to create another King realm martial artist.
“Is that the Sword Emperor, Azure Dragon?”
Lu Qingshan looked at the Azure Dragon from afar. His eyes were full of yearning, respect, and shock.
The feeling the Azure Dragon gave him was so extraordinary that he did not look like a human martial artist at all.
He was like the wind, light, and rain as if he had completely merged with the nature around him.
How powerful was his cultivation base, and how powerful was his martial art comprehension, to achieve that?
Compared to him, the so-called sword saint was simply not worth mentioning.
Looking at his close friend who was so shocked and praised, Li Liushui smiled.
“This is nothing. If you’ve really seen the sword emperor fight, you’ll know that the shock is something that you’ll never be able to achieve in your lifetime.”
Lu Qingshan slightly clenched his fists, feeling extremely regretful.
“It’s a pity that my strength isn’t enough. I’m far from reaching the King realm. If I can reach that level, perhaps I’ll have a chance to go there that time.”
“There’s no need to regret the past. Cherish this opportunity. Today’s battle is where the true opportunity lies.
“If you can comprehend the sword art within, it shouldn’t be a big problem for you to advance to the King realm.”
Lu Qingshan nodded. His gaze once again turned towards the peak of the mountain as he stared at that simple and unadorned figure.
The White Tiger faintly spoke,
“Vermillion Bird, who do you think has the highest chance of winning if the two of them fight seriously?”
Vermillion Bird shook her head.
“You don’t need to ask me this question. The winner will definitely be Azure Dragon!”
The White Tiger was shocked.
“Is Azure Dragon really that strong?”
Vermillion Bird smiled.
“He’s not just strong anymore. His martial arts has already reached the limit below the Emperor realm! The reason why he can’t advance to the Emperor realm is also because of this reason.
“Other people might need a little bit of comprehension to advance to the Emperor realm.
“But he needs an extremely huge amount of comprehension.
“But if he advances to that realm, then he’ll become a true dragon that roams the nine heavens. In the Emperor realm, it’s like entering a realm where no one can suppress him.”
Hiss!
Hearing that evaluation, the White Tiger’s scalp could not help but go numb.
Each generation of the four venerable ones had been passed down by the previous venerable ones.
Thus, they did not know much about each other’s strengths.
The White Tiger only knew that the Sword Emperor Azure Dragon of each generation was very strong, so strong that it made one’s hair stand on end.
However, she had never thought that the Azure Dragon would be so strong! To make the Fire Saber Vermillion Bird give such an evaluation.
One had to know that the Vermillion Bird was the number one existence on the World Phoenix list.
She had fought with the Vermillion Bird once, even though there was only a difference of one rank between the two.
At that time, the Vermillion Bird had let her understand what a true martial arts expert was!
One rank, but the distance between them was like the difference between heaven and earth!
To be able to make the Vermillion Bird give such an evaluation, one could imagine the Azure Dragon’s strength.
“Oh right, Vermilion Bird, have you fought with Azure Dragon before? The two of you, one is the number one on the World Dragon list, and the other is the number one on the World Phoenix list.
“You should have fought with Azure Dragon before, right? Even if your strength is inferior to his, you should still be able to exchange some moves, right?”
That was also a question that White Tiger had always been very curious about.
However, just as she finished speaking, Lu Qingshan and Li Liushui immediately stretched their ears over.
It was obvious that the two of them were also very curious about that matter.
It was true that both of them were experts among experts. However, with regards to the number one on the Phoenix list and the number one on the Dragon list, their aura as martial arts experts had completely disappeared.
All that was left was the burning flames of the eight trigrams.
The Fire Saber Vermilion Bird only smiled slightly.
“Of course, we’ve fought. We’ve met on a narrow path. How could two people with similar cultivation levels not fight?”
“Then how many moves did you last?”
At that moment, the hearts of White Tiger, Li Liushui, and Lu Qingshan could not help but start beating violently.
“Half a move!”
Those two words instantly caused the entire atmosphere to become quiet.
The minds of the three instantly stiffened.
This kind of shock simply made them speechless!
Half a move!
The Fire Saber Vermilion Bird, the dignified number one on the World Phoenix list, actually withstood half a move from the Azure Dragon!
Was that a joke to them?
The Azure Dragon was actually so powerful that it made one’s hair stand on end?
At that moment, they did not know why but the three of them could not help but begin to envy Ye Xiao.
To Ye Xiao, obtaining the Azure Dragon’s true meaning of martial arts was no less than eating the biggest experience bag in that world.
It would definitely allow him to advance to the Emperor realm with 100 percent certainty.
Lu Qingshan could not help but ridicule,
“Now even I’m starting to be jealous of that kid. His luck is simply heaven-defying!”
Li Liushui did not know whether to laugh or cry.
“Sigh! Comparing people is infuriating!”
At that moment, a figure from the distant Jianghai city also flew over quickly.
Feeling the Black Tortoise’s aura, everyone was shocked.
“He’s here!”
