Chapter 1334: Shattering Space

Fish Dragon Art! Moving like a fish in water, changing direction thousands of times!

Xiao Chen retreated step by step, his body like a fish in water. As he wagged his body, the afterimages left behind layered over each other, looking vague.

The thousands of afterimages obscured his true body as if it was hidden behind a curtain of water.

However, the blue-clad old man had locked on to Xiao Chen's aura at the very beginning. No matter how Xiao Chen moved, the old man's one-meter-long sword kept heading towards him, not giving him a chance to dodge.

After taking ten steps back, Xiao Chen was cornered. The blue-clad old man shouted, "Die!"

"In your dreams!" Xiao Chen roared back in reply. This crucial moment of life and death brought out all his potential.

Fish Dragon Art! Azure Dragon leaping out of the sea, shaking the heavens with a roar!

Xiao Chen's aura suddenly changed from a fish to a dragon as he bared his saber in rage.

As Xiao Chen drew the Lunar Shadow Saber, the thousands of afterimages merged, light and darkness turned illusionary. Thousands of dazzling beams of light containing heavy and sharp saber intent shot out of his body.

The sharp beams of light condensed by saber intent pierced thousands of holes in this rather vast space.

"Dang!"

The instant Xiao Chen drew the saber, he finally managed to block that horrifying sword strike. The thunderous impact resounded throughout the Five Poison Sect, the shock wave shattering countless buildings and pavilions.

Xiao Chen took three steps back. With each step, he vomited copious amounts of blood.

By the third step, his face had already turned frighteningly pale. His hands, one of which was bracing the back of the saber blade, both showed cracks and were thoroughly numb.

Based on Xiao Chen's situation, it was clear he was gravely injured. However, in the end, he blocked this sword that could have killed him.

As long as he blocked it, he would be able to create a chance for survival.

This outcome startled everyone present. They had not thought that Xiao Chen could actually block the peak sword strike of a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor, something that clearly should have killed him.

On the host's seat, Tang Feng turned extremely sullen. He shouted coldly and threw a palm strike at the blue-clad old man.

Tang Feng launched this palm strike with all his might, showing no mercy at all. His heavy killing intent made the air as thick as ink. If the blue-clad old man dared to block, he would die for sure. Only by retreating would the blue-clad old man stand a chance of living.

Such a heavy merciless attack clearly showed how angry Tang Feng was. A person who put him in such a disadvantageous position was a traitor to him and should be killed.

When Xiao Chen saw Tang Feng making a move, he released his bated breath. If Tang Feng did not make a move, Xiao Chen could not block in his current condition.

"You really think that you are safe already? Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen, only one of us can live. You will die today for sure!"

A jade strip appeared in the blue-clad old man's hand. Then, he crushed it before anyone could react.

The blue-clad old man and Xiao Chen vanished at the same time. It was like they left this world.

"Bang!"

With the two's sudden disappearance, the strike that Tang Feng launched in rage naturally struck nothing but air. It landed on the floor, and the entire pavilion collapsed and shattered into countless shards flying everywhere.

The Soft Cloud Pavilion had formations laid in it. Martial Emperors could exchange moves in there without any problems.

But after Xiao Chen's overwhelming saber intent, the blue-robed old man's peak strike, and Tang Feng's enraged strike, it was normal that the pavilion could not endure.

When Tang Feng and the others rushed to where Xiao Chen and the blue-clad old man vanished, they all showed confused looks.

The temporary blindness had passed. Tong Susu and the others had already recovered their eyesight. They showed shock on their faces, their brains unable to keep up with the events.

"What's going on? How did Xiao Chen and that blue-robed old man suddenly disappear?" Tong Susu asked in extreme confusion.

Tang Feng said through gritted teeth, "It is a Dimensional Talisman, the Dimensional Talisman unique to the Deity Race. It can create a space in another dimension separate from the Kunlun Realm. Unless a Prime makes a move, no one can influence the two people in the world in that dimension."

"Ah!"

The expression of the pretty red-clad woman behind Tong Susu changed. "Then the Azure Dragon King is dead for sure. It's over. We are all implicated in this now."

The elegant old man from the Heavenly Province Academy also showed an unsightly expression. He said in a cold voice, "Sect Master Tang, you are truly unfathomable. First, you hid the spirit of the poison cloud from us. Now, you actually even had such a hand. Truly brilliant!"

Tang Feng's expression turned extremely sullen. As his face sank, he did not say a single word.

At this moment, the only happy one was probably Gong Taihua, who had taunted Xiao Chen over and over again earlier.

How dangerous! He even managed to receive the peak strike of a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor. If he really accepted my challenge earlier, I would probably have disgraced myself before everyone, losing all my face.

However, things are still going well. This fellow will die today for sure. After being trapped with a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor in another dimension, how can he possibly survive?

---

On the world in that other dimension, the blue-clad old man's tense heart relaxed. While carrying out the assassination outside, he had felt extremely anxious along the way. He feared exposing his plans and having them spoiled by Tang Feng.

Now that the two were in this dimension, the blue-clad old man could do whatever he wanted to this brat, who had not advanced to Martial Emperor yet. Without any interference, he could mess with him however he wished.

"Azure Dragon King, sorry for the offense. This old man's lifespan is coming to an end, and I need to use your head to exchange for another five hundred years of lifespan. Really sorry for the offense," the blue-clad old man said with a faint smile and a relaxed expression.

While the blue-clad old man was relaxed, Xiao Chen was even more relaxed. In that Soft Cloud Pavilion, he was constrained by many considerations, worried about exposing his trump cards. In this mysterious space, he could go all out. With so many trump cards, it would be strange if he could not kill the other party.

Xiao Chen said with a faint smile, "It might not go the way you wish. Not only will you not live another five hundred years, but you might even end up handing over your life today."

When the blue-clad old man heard this, he laughed, "Azure Dragon King, unless you have a Primordial Emperor Treasure that you can use to break this space in another dimension, even gods would find it hard to save you."

"Is that so?"

Xiao Chen smiled coldly and threw a ferocious palm strike. The Heavenly Snow Divine Flame within the Buddhist lamp in the painting world in his palm surged out.

A snowstorm blew, and the divine flame covered the sky. The space in front turned into a land sealed in ice within one breath.

Before the blue-clad old man could react, the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame trapped him and burned his body with an icy flame.

"Crack! Crack!"

The space that the icy flame froze and burned showed cracks. After three seconds, the blue-clad old man managed to struggle free, albeit in a sorry state. He soared into the air and laughed loudly, "Just an insignificant divine flame, and you wish to burn me to death with it? You juniors will never understand the might of a Greater Heavenly Martial Emperor."

However, after the blue-clad old man finished laughing, he suddenly discovered that something was wrong. Xiao Chen was gone. In his place were two thick, mountain-like pillars.

There was also a great, boundless might surging out, pressing down like a divine mountain.

The blue-clad old man looked up and revealed a terror-stricken expression, utterly stunned. He could swear that he had never seen such a scene in his life before.

"Pa!"

A gargantuan hand suddenly descended and smashed the blue-clad old man, who had just struggled free, into a puddle of blood.

The might of Dharmic World vanished, and Xiao Chen shrank back to his original size.

Having ample time to execute this Major Magic Skill, he suffered no serious repercussions. His expression appeared as normal, although his complexion did not look good.

"Boom!" After the blue-robed old man died, the space in another dimension shattered.

The white-haired-and-white-robed Xiao Chen, with a saber hanging from his waist, suddenly reappeared.

The various powerhouses were thinking of how to deal with the aftermath of Xiao Chen's death when they suddenly saw this familiar figure. This sight shocked them to the point where their eyes nearly fell out of their sockets.

The one with the most interesting expression was naturally Gong Taihua.

The space in the other dimension had shattered, and Xiao Chen walked out alive. There was only one possibility: the blue-clad old man died!

Everyone's minds buzzed. A Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor died. The one to walk out alive was actually Xiao Chen.

This was somewhat too incredible.

However, joy quickly followed. Tang Feng walked over and asked with a smile, "Little Friend Xiao Chen, is it really you?"

Xiao Chen nodded and replied, "It is definitely me, completely genuine."

"Today's matter…"

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "I know. Sect Master Tang, there is no need to explain. If Sect Master Tang wishes to kill me, you have at least a thousand different ways to do so silently. Why would you resort to such a clumsy method, sending an elder to kill me in your headquarters?"

Tang Feng released his bated breath. The Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen was indeed as magnanimous as rumored.

Tong Susu's smiling face was like a flower. Her clear eyes sparkled as she looked at Xiao Chen. She giggled, "Young Master Xiao is really incredible. You even managed to kill a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor of the Five Poison Sect. I seem to recall a certain Fourth Heaven Martial Emperor acting very arrogantly, speaking big words. Something about using only half his strength to defeat the Azure Dragon King."

Tong Susu's bubbly laughter sounded very piercing to Gong Taihua's ears.

Gong Taihua lowered his head in shame, unable to say anything in rebuttal.

How could he rebut? Could it be that he had to prove that he was stronger than a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor? Clearly, that was impossible. Not only was he weaker than Elder Ma, but he was much weaker.

However, Xiao Chen even managed to kill Elder Ma. This was equal to a heavy slap to Gong Taihua's face.

Gong Taihua had been very arrogant and overbearing earlier, calling Xiao Chen a turtle hiding in his shell, saying that Xiao Chen was merely so-so.

Now, Xiao Chen directly killed a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor. What else was even more convincing, more practical for slapping Gong Taihua's face?

At this moment, Gong Taihua was only a minor character—a dancing clown just as Xiao Chen thought earlier. Xiao Chen did not bother to follow up on Tong Susu's words. The others also looked at Gong Taihua in disdain before directly ignoring him.

Xiao Chen performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "Sect Master Tang, thank you for your hospitality. I'm afraid I will have to take my leave first."

Tang Feng immediately felt disappointed and frustrated. It was like he was choking on something.

"Young Master Xiao, after leaving the Five Poison Sect, how about coming to my Yinyang Paradise for a visit? My sisters have long wished to see the Azure Dragon King's true face."

Tong Susu stepped forward, approaching Xiao Chen and extending him an invitation.

After the Heavenly Province Academy's Holy Son received some instructions from the elder behind him, he also stepped forward with an invitation. "Azure Dragon King, how about coming to my Heavenly Province Academy, instead? The Heavenly Province Academy is filled with many relics of the predecessors. There are even some remnants from the Immortal Epoch. The Azure Dragon King will definitely be interested in them."

Upon seeing that Xiao Chen could even kill a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor, the Yinyang Paradise and the Heavenly Province Academy both changed their attitudes radically.

On the other hand, Tang Feng had already said earlier that he wanted to remain neutral. Now that he saw this scene, he felt regret in his heart. However, he could not bear to embarrass himself by changing his position. Hence, he felt regret.

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. The two simultaneous invitations somewhat put him on the spot. He did not know which to accept first.

However, this difficulty was a happy difficulty.

If Tian Youxi knew that her arranged assassination not only failed but even ended up helping Xiao Chen, she would be frustrated to death. She would not even be able to cry if she wanted to. What else could deal a greater blow than this?
