Chapter 715: Monarch Blood Gra.s.s
Just as Xiao Chen stomped on the ground and flew up together with the tiny Azure Dragon, a resonant dragon roar rang out.
Xiao Chen turned into a true dragon and soared into the sky, moving like a bolt of lightning as he charged at the Flying Celestial Demonic Panther at extreme speed.
The tiny Azure Dragon in his dantian moved along his meridians and charged out of his body. In that instant, Xiao Chen also drew his Lunar Shadow Saber.
“Ka ca!”
Purple lightning lit up the sky. From the moment Xiao Chen turned into a dragon and soared up to the moment he drew his saber, only one breath pa.s.sed.
Now, he easily grasped that feeling that he had struggled to find previously.
When the saber light flashed, it was like a true dragon opened its jaws in fury. An unrivaled might immediately tore this Rank 8 Demonic Beast in half.
With just one attack, Xiao Chen dispatched a Rank 8 Demonic Beast, which could rival a Superior Grade Martial Monarch.
Blood spattered across the sky. The halves of the Flying Celestial Demonic Panther quickly fell to the ground.
Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and stood upright. Then he revealed a faint expression of joy. He had never executed Soaring Dragon this smoothly before.
He had completed this move in one breath, not feeling any obstruction when he attacked right as he got that feeling in his heart.
Xiao Chen descended to the Demonic Beast corpse and thought to himself, The Item Spirit of the Azure Dragon Palace was right. The problem was due to my Martial Spirit.
Ao Jiao, an exquisite figure dressed in green, squinted as she stood on the truncated mountain.
As she looked at Xiao Chen filled with renewed self-confidence, her lips curled up in a satisfied smile.
Xiao Chen’s figure flashed, and he landed beside Ao Jiao once again. After some thought, he took out the brocade box containing the Savage Battlefield map.
Originally, he had intended to practice the Dragon Tone Art before seeking out forbidden lands. However, the surging vast Quintessence in his body, in addition to the Small Perfection Soaring Dragon, gave him great confidence.
He had already wasted a lot of time. He could not afford to continue dawdling.
All the experts of the Tianwu Domain’s younger generation had probably revealed themselves already. The situation could change at any time. Xiao Chen had to grasp this fleeting opportunity.
If he did not make a move now, when would he?!
Ao Jiao looked at the brocade box that Xiao Chen took out and asked curiously, “What is that? To think it actually needs a Spirit Sealing Box to contain it!”
He opened the brocade box and then took out an ancient-looking beast-skin map full of Spiritual Energy from the bottom layer.
The instant Xiao Chen took the beast-skin map out of the box, the boundless savage Qi contained in the map surged out. Then, the savage Qi quickly merged with this vast Savage Battlefield, indistinguishable from each other and forming a wondrous connection.
Ao Jiao’s lashes fluttered as her bright eyes opened wide. At first, her face was blank from shock. After she reacted, her expression changed.
Suppressing the excitement in her heart, she said joyfully, “This is the Savage Battlefield map! Where did you get it?”
Xiao Chen opened up the Savage Battlefield map and gave Ao Jiao a simple explanation of how he managed to obtain it from the loose cultivator Lone Wolf.
After Ao Jiao heard him out, she sighed and said, “You are really lucky. Back then, Sang Mu had searched the entire Tianwu Domain to no avail looking for this map.”
“This Savage Battlefield map is so great that the Thunder Emperor spent so much effort searching for it?”
Ao Jiao nodded and said very naturally, “Of course. Before the war of the Emperors, the Savage Battlefield was one of the two centers of the Kunlun Realm. It hid the secrets of the Immortal Epoch’s destruction. All you see now is just the tip of the iceberg.
“The Savage Battlefield was a land of fortuitous encounters even for the Martial Emperors of the Kunlun Realm.”
Xiao Chen revealed a grave expression. It had not occurred to him that the Savage Battlefield was so vast and boundless.
“Wasn’t it said that Martial Sages and above could not enter the Savage Battlefield? How could Martial Emperors come here? That is too ridiculous.”
Before coming here, Xiao Chen had heard that there would be no Martial Sages coming on this experiential training. Even for the loose cultivators, there would not be any Martial Sages who dared to break this restriction.
Ao Jiao smiled faintly and quickly replied, “The experiential training of sect disciples only happens once every three years when the Demonic Barrier weakens. During other times, there are not that many restrictions. How could Martial Emperors care about that Demonic Barrier?”
With this explanation, Ao Jiao laid to rest one of Xiao Chen’s doubts. After that, the two stopped discussing that topic and focused on examining the various forbidden lands on the map.
Wherever he looked, a vast scene would appear in his mind. Mountains and rivers appeared one after another with nothing missing.
Xiao Chen could even clearly see the Demonic Beasts around the forbidden land. It was like he was visiting these places personally. He found it extremely interesting.
Every forbidden land had a red marker. Xiao Chen knew his limits and did not bother to check anything else besides the ones with the weakest shade of red.
However, even with just these, Xiao Chen got a headache from simply looking at them.
Even the forbidden lands with the lowest danger were not places he could explore on his own. The Demonic Beasts around them were mutated Demonic Beasts, much stronger than regular Demonic Beasts.
