Chapter 991: Who Will Pay the Price? That Is Not Certain Ye
t
Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. The Yan Clan, Jiang Clan, and Lin Clan really put in a lot of effort for the sake of killing him. The situation before him was extrely dangerous. Compared to what happened in Strange Fire City, this was even more horrifying.
His only consolation was that even though these were Emperor Grade Secret Treasures, only a Martial Emperor could bring out their full power.
When a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage controlled an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure, he would only be able to bring out ten percent of its power at best. The burden on the body would be correspondingly enormous. Every ti it was activated, the user would have to pay a huge price.
Even so, Xiao Chen would have difficulty finding a chance at survival.
He quickly analyzed his situation, sorting all the information. Then, he drafted a counterasure.
Ten percent of an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure’s power was equal to the strike of a quasi-Emperor. Facing three Emperor Grade Secret Treasures ant that Xiao Chen would have to endure three moves equalling that of a quasi-Emperor if he wanted a chance at survival.
“Xiao Chen, back then, after you snatched our three Secret Treasures, you still dared to behave so arrogantly. Today, we will bury you here, making you pay the true price.”
The First Elders of the three clans took a corner each. They used the three Emperor Grade Secret Treasures to lock down space, countering Xiao Chen’s Freedom Wings.
With the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures locking this place down, leaving would be very hard.
Yan Shisi laughed coldly. He wanted to see Xiao Chen’s look of desperation after Xiao Chen was forced into a dead end.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed. Aside from the shock at being knocked away at the start, Xiao Chen did not evince any fear or desperation.
“Brother Yan, there is no need to care about him. Later, he will be begging for rcy. I do not believe that after exhausting his energy in the Thousand Dragon Arrow Formation, he still stands a chance,” the Lin Clan scion laughed when he saw the situation.
The Jiang Clan scion who stood on the right said in an even more sinister tone, “As long as the First Elders create an opening, we can attack at lightning speed. Within three moves, he will beco crippled. At that ti, we can torture him any way we want.”
These three scions had been extrely confident when they were in the Primal Chaos Domain. They had held replicas of Emperor Grade Secret Treasures and wanted to kill Xiao Chen. In the end, they had gotten beaten up into a sorry state and forced into pathetic flight. They even lost their Secret Treasures—which was a horrible sha.
Now, when these three believed that they had Xiao Chen cornered, they naturally could not help feeling pleased and cocky.
The purple talisman that contained the Great Perfection saber soul hovered over Xiao Chen’s head. He did his best to resist the pressure from the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures, not letting himself expose any opening.
The three old n revealed shock in their eyes. They had the Profound Yin Umbrella, Hundred Change Tortoise Spirit Shield, and Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron, three Emperor Grade Secret Treasures.
Although they each could bring out only ten percent of the might of the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures, when working together, the pressure from the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures should be strong enough to crush several grandmaster-level Martial Sages.
However, even after this long, Xiao Chen could still maintain his calm under such heavy might and pressure, not showing any opening.
The three old n could even see a sharpness and an intense fighting spirit in him.
“Don’t hold back. We have to cripple this brat in one strike. Otherwise, sothing unexpected might happen.”
The Yan Clan Elder snorted coldly. The Heavenly Sage Laws in his body surged up into the Profound Yin Umbrella above him.
The Profound Yin Umbrella instantly opened up, and a scarlet Profound Yin True Fla started burning intensely. Strands of cold Qi charged towards Xiao Chen, trying to infiltrate his body.
All it would take was one strand to enter his body, and it would turn into a cold poison, inflicting great harm on him.
The First Elders of the Jiang Clan and the Lin Clan followed closely.
The plain-looking tortoiseshell turned into a shield densely packed with flickering talisman scripts. The pressure that ca from it made space feel like water squeezed into all sorts of shapes.
The Lin Clan’s Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron was even mightier. The roars of all sorts of ancient mutated beasts ca from the cauldron, rising and falling like waves. The sound rumbled, shaking the eardrums.
Xiao Chen clearly could not match such pressure from the three old n by relying on just the immortal will of thunder and his Great Perfection saber soul.
His hair and clothes fluttered. Drops of sweat dripped off his forehead.
Small cracks appeared on his skin, and blood leaked out.
The earth under his feet instantly cracked. The ground shook, and the sky spun like the universe was falling.
Seeing that Xiao Chen was slowly losing ground and his aura was declining, showing small openings, the three old n revealed a trace of joy on their fatigued faces.
Soon, after a little while more, Xiao Chen’s aura will completely shatter. At that ti, we won’t need to use much of the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures’ might to defeat him.
After all, these three old n could only use a tenth of the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures’ might. Furthermore, doing so was already taking a significant toll on their bodies.
If the three could pay a smaller price, they would definitely do their best to achieve it.
The expressions of Yan Shisi and the other two Sovereign Noble Clan scions slowly turned excited. Now, all they wanted was to make a lightning-quick strike and erased the na Xiao Chen from the world.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen vomited a mouthful of blood as his aura shattered. The purple Lightning Talisman above his head turned into sparks and scattered everywhere.
“Attack!”
The Yan Clan’s First Elder’s eyes lit up. He stretched his hand out and grasped the umbrella. Then, his figure flashed as he thrust the Profound Yin Umbrella forcefully at Xiao Chen.
A cold wind blew, and an overwhelming cold filled the area. In front of the Profound Yin Umbrella, Xiao Chen’s body was already covered in frost. His black hair turned white, and his lips drained of color.
When the First Elders of the Jiang Clan and Lin Clan saw this, they hesitated and stopped attacking.
Based on Xiao Chen’s situation, suffering from cold poison with his aura shattered, he already had no way to fight back. There was no longer any need for the other two old n to attack.
They did not have to activate the Emperor Grade Secret Treasures and harm their own physical bodies for nothing.
However, the two did not notice that a trace of mockery flashed across Xiao Chen’s pale face. He smiled in his heart. My gamble paid off. I knew that this bunch of people would not fearlessly go all in and would pull back if they could.
“Bang!”
With a flip of Xiao Chen’s hand, the Lunar Shadow Saber appeared. When the Profound Yin Umbrella was less than ten ters away, he drew the Lunar Shadow Saber with lightning speed.
In that instant, the dazzling light fird up Xiao Chen’s figure. The white frost on his body lted instantly. The scattered sparks regathered.
The immortal will of thunder that contained his Great Perfection saber soul turned back into the purple Lightning Talisman and hovered above his head again.
The mont Xiao Chen drew the Lunar Shadow Saber, his shattered aura coalesced once again and increased further.
A sharpness surged out, contesting with the Emperor Grade Secret Treasure. By relying on the Lunar Shadow Saber’s might, he surpassed that of the other party. After all, the other party could bring out only a portion of the Emperor Grade Secret Treasure’s potential.
In the ti it took for a spark to fly, the scene seed to freeze. There was a crisp sound as Xiao Chen knocked away the Profound Yin Umbrella in the Yan Clan First Elder’s hand with his saber.
Then, another saber light flared. It was actually Xiao Chen’s left foot kicking out almost at the sa ti. This kick landed on the Yan Clan First Elder’s chest.
Blood spurted as the Yan Clan First Elder went flying back, the ribs of his chest shattered.
Five Dragon Force, twenty-five thousand tons of force, struck out with the Flawless saber Dao. This blow was not easy to take.
This change happened in an instant. Xiao Chen, who clearly appeared like he was about to die, suddenly attacked and knocked back the Yan Clan First Elder, instead.
“This brat fooled us. He scattered his aura himself!”
The First Elders of the Jiang Clan and the Lin Clan were taken aback. They had not expected Xiao Chen to do this.
Scattering his own aura ant that he endured the full pressure of the three Emperor Grade Secret Treasures. The resulting internal injuries were no joke.
Even if one could temporarily suppress the injuries, when they finally erupted out, they would present a big problem.
Furthermore, if the two old n had attacked as well, with both old and new wounds, even a deity would not be able to save Xiao Chen.
When the two old n looked at Xiao Chen, they trembled in fear. This kind of person was too ruthless—ruthless to his enemy and even more ruthless to himself.
“Whoosh!”
Now that Xiao Chen broke through the three’s encirclent, his figure flashed as he charged over to the three scions. A cruel smile appeared on his face.
This developnt terrified the three young n. One mont earlier, they were still thinking of how to torture Xiao Chen before he died.
In the next instant, Xiao Chen kicked away the Yan Clan First Elder and charged towards them.
“You three are just trash, yet you’re thinking of killing ? I will kill you first today.”
A cold light flashed on the saber. Xiao Chen executed his strongest killing move, the Subduing Dragon Profound Slash, without an expression on his face.
Out of sight, out of mind. Since Xiao Chen saw this opportunity, he would not give these three people a chance to flee.
“Hold there!”
This attack startled the First Elders of the Jiang Clan and the Lin Clan into shouting. How could they dare to hold back at this mont? They quickly charged over, activating their two Emperor Grade Secret Treasures without holding back anything.
These old n had to stop Xiao Chen. They had brought Emperor Grade Secret Treasures to this ambush, yet not only did they fail to kill Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen even killed their wards, instead. If word of this got back to their clans, their respective Clan Heads would be furious.
As of now, Xiao Chen’s strength rivaled that of a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage. When he used his full power, how could the three scions be a match for him? Furthermore, this was his strongest killing move, the Subduing Dragon Profound Slash.
The mont Xiao Chen attacked, he had not intended to give the three any chance to survive. Eighteen huge azure-colored saber lights swept out and reduced the three scions to a flash of scarlet light.
Xiao Chen killed these three scions right before the eyes of their First Elders.
Probably no one ever expected such an outco. These three did not die in peace.
Before these three scions arrived, they had viewed Xiao Chen as a dead man, taking him lightly. They felt that Xiao Chen had already fallen into their trap and they could take out their anger on him, erasing the shadows in their hearts.
For the sake of killing Xiao Chen, the three clans even took out their Emperor Grade Secret Treasures. They ca with great boldness and ruthless hearts.
However, Xiao Chen was even more ruthless than them. He used a strong force to break this dead end with a flip of his hand.
“You bastard!”
Now that the scions died in such a miserable fashion, the First Elders of the Jiang Clan and the Lin Clan completely lost it. The Hundred Change Tortoise Spirit Shield and Ten Thousand Beast Cauldron charged over at the sa ti.
Thousands of ancient tortoiseshells arranged to form the Tortoise Spirit Shield. It used the shock wave created to send out an attack.
Space beca like water pressed into layers of waves. These were spatial waves. With just one gentle touch, these could reduce a fifty-kiloter-wide mountain range to powder.
The Jiang Clan First Elder continuously infused his Heavenly Sage Laws into the Tortoise Spirit Shield. Blood leaked out the corners of his eyes, his face aging by ten years. He looked like he was berserk.
The Jiang Clan First Elder erupted with such shocking might. This horrifying energy already equaled a strike of a quasi-Emperor. However, this was just ten percent of an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure’s power.
This showed how horrifying the true explosive might of an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure was. In the hands of a Martial Emperor, all it would take was one shake to crush Xiao Chen into a at paste.
A Rank 4 Sage Body would not be sufficient then.
Fortunately, this was only ten percent of the Emperor Grade Secret Treasure’s might. It was just a quasi-Emperor’s strike. Xiao Chen was confident of blocking one move.
He sheathed the saber before stabbing it into the ground. Then, he quickly ford hand seals and materialized the fifth move of the Myriad Heaven Divine Fist, Eternal Myth.
The Magic Energy in Xiao Chen’s sea of consciousness burned. A Deity Statue appeared behind Xiao Chen, looking exactly like him.
