Chapter 313 - The Absolute Domain On the Floating Platform, piercingly cold winds (2/2)
Sounds of amazement rose continuously from the crowd. On the high platform, even the three Elders of the Immortals’ League stood up in shock. At first, they thought that Xiao Chen defeated Zuoqiu Yang by using some mystic art a few days ago. But now, when they witnessed Xiao Chen trap the four people at the same time, they were absolutely sure that Xiao Chen used the Absolute Domain. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen had reached the Nascent Soul Realm for real. For a time, the three Elders could not help sighing with feeling.
On the other side, the faces of all the people from the Ling family, the Zuoqiu family, the Order of the Divine Fire, and Wan Gufeng became extremely ugly in an instant.
Meanwhile, among those people from the Jade Qing Sect, Murong Xian’er cheered him on. “Brother Xiao Chen, hurry up! Beat them up quickly!”
On the Floating Platform, Xiao Chen said coldly, “Have the four of you enjoyed yourselves to the fullest when you hit me just now?” As soon as he finished, he thundered. Without warning, a potent force spread out around him, and a massive cloud of dust arose. Then, the four people were shaken out into the air by this force.
They were directly thrown to about 20 meters away. At this moment, Xiaoyue rolled up the Duster. Immediately, she landed on the Floating Platform and stood steadily. After drawing a few spells on his hands, Su Zimu also managed to come to a stop. However, Yang Shaochen was directly knocked off the Floating Platform. As for One-dot Red, he finally kept his feet when he retreated to the Floating Platform’s edge.
Su Zimu’s heart sank all of a sudden because he had never expected that Xiao Chen had cultivated the Absolute Domain to this point. “It seems that he is really my third aunt’s son. He is a Xiao family member,” Su Zimu thought. Then, he smiled bitterly and said, “Well, Brother Xiao’s cultivation is amazing, which puts me to shame. I will compare notes with you if there is any chance some other day.”
The implication was that he would still fight with Xiao Chen in the future. After he said that, Su Zimu closed the folding fan and cupped his fists at Xiao Chen. Then, he gently tapped his toes and floated down the Floating Platform. His figure still appeared so elegantly that it made many girls scream out.
On the other side, One-dot Red was not willing to give up, but he was fully aware that he definitely was not a match for Xiao Chen at this time. So with a flick of his sleeve, he also left the Floating Platform.
By himself, a man fought hard against the four top youths. Those spectators below continually cheered for Xiao Chen. After today, Xiao Chen would once again become famous throughout the Middle Continent. At this time on the Floating Platform, only Xiaoyue did not choose to leave.
Xiao Chen turned around and looked at her and smiled lightly. “What? Does Fairy Xiaoyue want to enlighten me with a few more moves?”
Xiaoyue frowned a little but said nothing. It seemed that she was trying hard to weigh the pros and cons of each choice. “If I draw forth the Autumn Water Sword, I may be able to defeat him today. But I’m afraid that Xiao Chen is petty and will bear me ill will after I defeat him.”
After a long time of consideration, Xiaoyue looked up. Her eyebrows moved as softly as water, which looked very charming. She chuckled and said, “Brother Xiao, your cultivation is far above mine. I am not that talented, but I still would like to compete with you today.”
As her voice fell, her words made a stir in half of the audience below. Xiao Chen had reached the Nascent Soul Realm. Xiaoyue, who always concealed her strength, was the descendant of the Ancient Immortal Clan with the Divine Weapon of the Archean Eon. Which one of them was stronger?
For a time, they had a lively discussion. But as the audience’s opinions varied on that point, no decision could be reached. At this moment, a strange old man wearing purple clothes and a mask appeared out of nowhere.
“Hey! It is a battle between the descendant of the Ancient Immortal Clan and the cynical youth Xiao Chen. Which one will you steak your money on? Make a concrete decision! Hurry up to bet! The gambling begins!”
On the high platform, Perfected Immortal Qing Chen immediately covered his forehead and passed a wisp of Divine Consciousness to that old man. “Junior Brother, today so many people from noble and decent families are present. Can you stop messing around?”
The old man was Zi Mo. Upon hearing the words, he smirked and sent back a piece of Divine Consciousness. “Rest assured, I’m wearing a mask so that no one can recognize me.”
“Senior Xiaoyao Zi! I want to bet. I want to bet!”
“Senior Xiaoyao Zi, I want to bet!”
“Senior Xiaoyao Zi…”
Countless people flocked to him.
On the Floating Platform, Xiao Chen smiled lightly. “Good.” At this moment, he did not want to think and speak too much because Xiaoyue was so much like Qianyu Nishang from before.
“Then, please show some mercy to me later on, Brother Xiao!” Xiaoyue stepped forward. “Whoosh!” The Autumn Water Sword flew out of its sheath. In an instant, the dazzling sword cast a thousand beams high in the sky and immediately caused the world to lose its colors. Within tens of thousands of meters around it, people could only see the brilliant sword.
A surging ancient immortal force instantly enveloped the entire square. Compared to its performance when it dealt with Yu Yifeng last time, the ancient Autumn Water Sword’s performance this time was much more shocking.
Xiaoyue whispered a spell and then pointed at Xiao Chen with her two fingers. “Autumn Water Sword! Go!”
The Autumn Water Sword’s body shivered. Immediately, it turned into a shooting star with a long light tail and dashed over to stab Xiao Chen. Everywhere it passed, broken stones splashed. Under the impact of the mighty ancient immortal force, the whole Floating Platform started to swing violently. The air was full of the sounds of wind whistling.
Broken stones rolled down, and dust was all over the sky. The wind and sand blinded many people, but they still did not want to miss this incredible scene. They fixed their red eyes on the light curtain and just let their tears continue to stream down.
Looking at the Autumn Water Sword, Xiao Chen suddenly felt a stab of pain in his heart. “Will the Autumn Water Sword that I gave to Qianyu Nishang that year finally come to cut me this time?”
However, when the Autumn Water Sword was about 30 cm away from his glabella, it suddenly stopped. The white radiance of the sword gradually faded away, revealing two lines of tiny characters on its end. They were the names that Xiao Chen and Qianyu Nishang engraved on the sword: Nishang, Yichen…
Slowly, the Autumn Water Sword started to tremble. When the wind blew over the sword, the sword body rang lightly as if it were whimpering, and it refused to move even a little bit more forward to stab Xiao Chen.
