Chapter 1520: 1520
Chapter 1520 (Raw 1501): Gathering at Heavenly Star Island
The seven Divine Weapons containing Great Dao Energy all struck the chests of the Immortal statues .
“Crack!”
Cracks spread out on the chests of the Immortal statues as all of them were knocked back one hundred meters .
The sheer size of the Immortal statues made the seven Divine Weapons look like toothpicks . However, incredibly, these insignificant-looking Divine Weapons knocked these seven Immortal statues into the air and broke large stone shards off them .
When Xiao Chen saw the Immortal statues’ conditions, he entered deep thought and intensified his Great Dao Energy .
While Xiao Chen had struck the other side’s weakness, the blow was not as effective as the Heartbreaking Stance, achieving barely half the damage .
Clearly, the other side also knew that the chest was the Immortal statues’ weakness and had significantly strengthened their defense there .
Only Martial Techniques that broke the heart from the inside, like the Heartbreaking Stance, would be very effective . An external attack would be much more difficult .
However, only Xiao Chen thought this . If others saw that his attacks knocked back seven Immortal statues at the same time and caused significant damage, they would be so shocked that their jaws would drop .
Xiao Chen leaped into the air over the splashes, and the seven Divine Weapons returned quickly .
He swept his gaze across the distance, looking at the Treasure Master’s Residence’s war chariots and wondering whether to charge over or not .
After some thought, he gave up on the idea . If he charged over, this group of war chariots would immediately scatter .
It would not be easy to figure out which war chariot the controller of the statues was in .
Instead, he might end up in a prolonged battle with the seven Immortal statues, which would not be good . He still needed to rescue the Cyclic Astral Palace and the Myriad Fiend Island—the other two surviving Immortal Holy Lands .
“Whoosh!”
Xiao Chen’s figure flashed, leaving without delay, heading towards the closer Cyclic Astral Palace .
The Treasure Master’s cultivators watched as Xiao Chen left but did not dare to give chase .

At the Cyclic Astral Palace, a report soon reached the Holy Son Chu Yang’s hand .
“Master, good news! Good news!”
Chu Yang joyfully barged into an important place of the Cyclic Astral Palace while shouting in excitement .
This place was where the Yin and Yang flame pools were at the bottom of the sea, which Xiao Chen once went to when he visited . Aside from the Cyclic Astral Lord, the Cyclic Astral Palace’s Elders were all gathered here as well .
The Cyclic Astral Lord and the many Elders were all infusing their Primordial Energy into the two large flame pools .
The power of the Cyclic Astral Palace’s protective formation came from these Yin and Yang flame pools .
Currently, there were four Immortal statues outside bombarding the Cyclic Astral Palace’s protective barrier with various Major Magic Skills .
The Cyclic Astral Palace upper echelon never stopped infusing Primordial Energy into the flame pools . This guaranteed that the protective formation could keep operating .
However, based on the situation, the Immortal statues’ abundant Magic Energy far surpassed these people’s Primordial Energy . It would be impossible for the Cyclic Astral Palace to win the battle of attrition . Sooner or later, the formation would break .
The destruction of the Cyclic Astral Palace was inevitable .
The Cyclic Astral Palace’s upper echelon could still use their own strength to escape . However, the weaker Elders and disciples would not be able to avoid death, being the Treasure Master’s sacrifices for the Demonic God Blood Sacrifice .
When Chu Yang suddenly barged in, kicking up a fuss, the group of Elders immediately showed unhappy expressions .
“Chu Yang, wasn’t it already said that this is a very important place and that no one should e in?”
“Did you not see the crisis we are in? There is no space for us to be distracted!”
The Cyclic Astral Lord, who was hovering in the air in a cross-legged seated posture, opened his somewhat fatigued eyes and said softly, “Elders, please stay calm . Don’t be impatient . Chu Yang, please speak properly . What exactly happened for you to be so excited?”
Chu Yang calmed himself and nodded . “Master, I just obtained news that the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen alone delayed eight Immortal statues and helped the Lunar Palace successfully break out of their encirclement .
“Now, Bright Moon City has already taken to the air and is heading for Heavenly Star Island . I heard that Xiao Chen moved the Azure Dragon Palace there and that that place is currently the safest in the entire Heavenly Starry Ocean . ”
“How can that be?!”
The group of Elders was incredibly shocked . When they heard that news, they nearly stopped what they were doing .
“That is absolutely impossible . One Immortal statue is already as strong as a Prime . Furthermore, these Immortal statues are very nimble despite their tremendous size, not in the least stiff . Also, they have grasped Immortal Arts and Magic Skills . ”
“Right, it must just be rumors . At this time, we should not be simply spreading and believing in such rumors . ”
“No matter how powerful the Azure Dragon King is, he cannot possibly delay eight Immortal statues alone . ”
The many Elders had seen the Immortal statues’ strength for themselves, so they were all skeptical, unwilling to believe this piece of news .
A light flashed in only the Cyclic Astral Lord’s eyes, but it disappeared after a moment . Just as he was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed slightly as he looked towards the entrance of this forbidden area .
“Of course, we should not put credence in rumors . However, if it is not a rumor, then we must believe in it . ”
“Whoosh!”
The white-clad Xiao Chen suddenly barged into the entrance of the forbidden area and looked straight at the Cyclic Astral Lord .
“Xiao Chen!”
The white-clad person that barged in was naturally Xiao Chen .
Speaking of which, it was rather strange . Xiao Chen just arrived in the sea region near the Cyclic Astral Palace, and the Treasure Master’s people immediately retreated without a fight when the four Immortal statues discovered him .
It was like they were afraid of fighting with Xiao Chen and suffering damage to the Immortal statues .
Before the people of the Cyclic Astral Palace could react to what was going on, Xiao Chen had already resolved the danger without even making a move . He just showed himself and scared off the Treasure Master’s people .
In hindsight, the Treasure Master’s people had probably received news of eight Immortal statues not being able to do anything to Xiao Chen . Four Immortal statues would fare worse, so they might as well leave to avoid fighting him . If they lost one of the Immortal statues, it would be a great heartache .
After hearing Xiao Chen’s explanation, the group of Cyclic Astral Palace Elders found it unbelievable . However, the news that they received after that stunned everyone .
“Cyclic Astral Lord, the four Immortal statues were really scared away . The various Palace Masters cannot understand what’s going on . Please give us instructions on the next step . ” The Elders looked to the Cyclic Astral Lord, awaiting his decision .
The Cyclic Astral Lord said, “Lift the current highest state of alert and let the thirty-six Astral Palaces rest in turn . ”
After a short pause, the Cyclic Astral Lord looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Interesting, you already surpassed Prime, right?”
Xiao Chen nodded and said, “It can be considered as so . ”
The Cyclic Astral Lord revealed a slightly excited smile . “It looks like I really have good judgment . The decision back then was absolutely correct . ”
Xiao Chen did not have a good impression of the Cyclic Astral Lord and was not willing to discuss this further . “The danger is not pletely over yet . If the Cyclic Astral Lord trusts me, you can have your sect’s cultivators retreat to Heavenly Star Island . That place is absolutely safe for now . ”
After saying that, Xiao Chen’s figure flashed, disappearing from where he was . He was already gone, leaving behind a group of wide-eyed and confused Cyclic Astral Palace Elders .
Chu Yang was pletely distracted, feeling all sorts of plicated emotions . No words could describe the bitterness that he felt right now .
The one in the best mood was naturally the Cyclic Astral Lord . Now that Xiao Chen had surpassed Prime, the chances of him leaving this abandoned land were significantly greater . With the arrangement made with the Oath Stone, Xiao Chen had to bring him out within one hundred years .
“Send down orders: all sect disciples are to rush to Heavenly Star Island at full speed half a day hence . ”
“Cyclic Astral Lord, you really believe him?” A few Elders were still feeling suspicious .
The Cyclic Astral Lord glared at the person who spoke and said, “Don’t overthink . This age is already his personal stage, just like how it was for the Azure Emperor ten thousand years ago . If we do not believe him, there is no second path . ”
When Xiao Chen reached the Myriad Fiend Island, the same thing happened . Before he arrived, four Immortal statues under the Treasure Master’s Residence’s control left quickly without breaking the Myriad Fiend Island’s barrier, unwilling to clash with him at all .
---
Two days later, the story of how the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen alone saved three Immortal Holy Lands spread throughout the Heavenly Starry Ocean .
The cultivators fleeing in all directions from the many sects destroyed went to Heavenly Star Island to take refuge .
As for the Treasure Master, for some reason, since then, the Immortal statues stopped taking action, giving the many disciples that escaped death a rare chance to catch a breather .
Various remnant factions headed for Heavenly Star Island one after another, turning it into the center of the oceanic world .
