691: Chapter 691 Blood Axe Xiao Chen, Body of the Heavens

"What? Beheaded?" Hun Tiandi's pupils shrank upon hearing this, revealing a look of shock.

"What's wrong?" Xuan Chen asked in confusion.

"Are you saying that experts from the Major Thousand Worlds want to go to the Yang World from here?" Hun Tiandi asked in surprise.

"Mm!" Xuan Chen nodded.

"Rumor has it that only Pseudo-Supreme (Note: The Sovereign Small Three Tribulations: Physical Body Tribulation, Spiritual Energy Tribulation, and Divine Soul Tribulation) experts can take away the Yellow Spring Road?" Hun Tiandi looked curious.

"Yes, it was just a Pseudo-Supreme expert who had passed the Physical Body Tribulation. The lowest level of such an expert is equivalent to a Dou Sheng expert on the Fighting Qi Continent!" Xuan Chen didn't care at all.

Hun Tiandi was speechless for a moment as he looked at Xuan Chen. A Pseudo-Supreme expert was a master facing the Sovereign Small Three Tribulations.

Once all three tribulations were successfully passed, one would officially become a Supreme-level expert.

Even the lowest-level Pseudo-Supreme, even if suppressed by the Lower Plane, possessed the strength of a Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng!

Such a powerful peerless master was actually slain by you, Xuan Chen?

Do you even hear what you're saying?

It shouldn't be. Hasn't it been less than fifty years since Xuan Chen made a Breakthrough to the Dou Sheng level? And he already killed a Pseudo-Supreme expert?

This isn't scientific? It's not logical!

One must know that for experts on the Fighting Qi Continent, since reaching the Dou Sheng level, the time and resources required for each star Breakthrough increase exponentially.

Some people don't see an increase of even one star in a hundred years.

Xuan Chen seemed to see through Hun Tiandi's confusion and smiled faintly. "My Creation Heavenly Palace is different from other Holy Lands."

Different? Even if your talent is peerless, this is too exaggerated, isn't it?

Without asking further, he nodded slightly.

The exaggerated Creation Heavenly Palace, the monstrous Prodigy Xuan Chen—to be this powerful less than fifty years after breaking through to Dou Sheng?

"Why have you come here?" Xuan Chen asked.

As Hun Tiandi was about to speak, a thought popped into his head, and he said indifferently, "I remembered something related to you!"

"Do you know about the Avici Hell?"

"I know of it, but I'm not clear on the details. The Qin Family's style is somewhat similar to the Creation Heavenly Palace. I generally don't make things difficult for people from the Qin Family!"

Xuan Chen said strangely.

"Do you know of the Reincarnation Pool?" Hun Tiandi spoke again.

"Reincarnation Pool?" Xuan Chen shook his head slightly.

Not many people in the Underworld knew of it. Hun Tiandi continued, "Legend says that every so often, the Qin Family disciples collect Soul bodies coming down from the Yang World. Your 'that person' should be the same!"

Xuan Chen suddenly looked up, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes, but even more so, excitement.

He had once been trapped by love. When his beloved wife died, there was a certain chance she had become a ghost. Since the Creation Heavenly Palace could travel between the Yin and Yang worlds, he should have looked for her.

But he had found nothing. Hun Tiandi was merely making a suggestion.

"Are you willing to go to the Qin Family?" Hun Tiandi asked in a deep voice.

"Yes. Once I deal with the newcomers from the Major Thousand Worlds, I will definitely go!" Xuan Chen said solemnly.

"In that case, we will head there first. We'll notify you if there's news!" Hun Tiandi said indifferently.

Many thanks!

Hun Tiandi turned and flew away with the three others. Xuan Chen sat cross-legged once more, returning to his calm and undisturbed state.

"Something's wrong. I just felt some figures flash by, heading straight for the Yellow Spring Road. Not just one, but eight," Hun Xiutian said in a deep voice.

"More than one? Pseudo-Supreme experts?" Hun Tiandi immediately turned his head to look in the direction of the Yellow Spring Road.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?" Gu He asked.

"Go back immediately. If Xuan Chen can repel eight Pseudo-Supreme experts, the Qin Family will be no more, and we'll have gained another helper!" Hun Tiandi said after a slight deliberation.

"Yes!" Everyone immediately nodded.

Immediately, they returned the way they came at their fastest speed, rushing toward the Yellow Spring Road. After a certain distance, they looked at Xuan Chen in the distance.

Xuan Chen was still sitting cross-legged. Standing in the air before him were eight men in scarlet robes. They had different appearances, and a powerful arrogance flowed in their eyes.

The leader was dressed in ordinary clothes and stood quietly. He looked extremely ordinary, but his aura was deep and vast.

"Blood Axe Xiao Chen?" Hun Xiutian said in surprise.

"Blood Axe Xiao Chen was the number two Prodigy of the Xiao Clan back then, with Xiao Xuan being number one. Later, he broke into the Demon Flame Space, was caught in an illusion, and was imprisoned for a thousand years. It wasn't until the Purification Lotus Demon Flame appeared that Xiao Chen was able to come out!" Hun Xiutian said in a deep voice.

He seemed somewhat wary of Blood Axe Xiao Chen. The Hun Clan and the Xiao Clan had a thousand-year-old grudge with blood debts as vast as the sea; they were well-acquainted with each other.

"Xiao Chen?" Hun Tiandi frowned slightly. Why was he back?

"Creation Heavenly Palace? Still meddling in others' business?" Blood Axe Xiao Chen sneered.

"Blood Axe Xiao Chen, let me give you a word of advice: please go back! Seeing as you were once a person of the Fighting Qi Continent, I will act as if I didn't see you!" Xuan Chen said in a deep voice.

"Hahaha, act as if you didn't see me? I want to go to the Yang World; can you stop me? When I roamed the Fighting Qi Continent back then, I didn't even know where you were!"

Blood Axe Xiao Chen said with a face full of disdain.

"Good words are hard to persuade a ghost destined for death. Since that's the case, then you all can try!" Xuan Chen said coldly, speaking no more.

Just as Xiao Chen was about to say something else, someone behind him spoke: "Brother Xiao, we aren't here to cause trouble."

Hearing the reminder from the person behind him, Xiao Chen nodded and took a deep breath. "We are returning to the Xiao Realm to retrieve some things. Once we have them, we will leave!"

"According to the rules of the Fighting Qi Continent Lower Plane, once you leave the Fighting Qi Lower Plane, you are no longer a person of the Fighting Qi Lower Plane. Please go back!"

Xuan Chen refused coldly.

"Hmph!"

One of the scarlet-robed men had a violent temper. After a cold snort, his figure suddenly disappeared from his spot, and he fiercely smashed a punch toward Xuan Chen.

Xuan Chen was not afraid. He tapped a finger to his brow, and a strange scene emerged.

Xuan Chen was still sitting cross-legged, but a figure of Xuan Chen suddenly appeared on his left. It was like a physical entity and struck out with a palm.

Boom...

Fist and palm collided, erupting in a massive roar. Terrifying power surged, and a hundred-foot-wide black hole instantly appeared before them as space rippled.

The impact of the energy fluctuation shattered countless ghost creatures, turning them into fly ash.

The scarlet-robed figure was sent flying back, while Xuan Chen's figure was covered in countless cracks.

"The secret techniques of the Creation Heavenly Palace are truly terrifying!"

Hun Xiutian said in a deep voice, looking at Xuan Chen who was still sitting cross-legged.

"Can you alone stop the eight of us?" Xiao Chen sneered.

Xuan Chen's expression was calm. His long white hair fluttered, and a surge of Holy Light emerged around him, enveloping his true body and making him look like a deity.

Countless beams of pure white light appeared in the sky, filled with a holy radiance, as countless white feathers fluttered about.

"A Domain?" the scarlet-robed figure who had attacked earlier said in surprise.

"No, it's the Holy Light Screen of the Creation Heavenly Palace!" Xiao Chen frowned.

"This is..." another scarlet-robed figure exclaimed, seeing Xuan Chen's entire body undergo a change.

Behind Xuan Chen, white light suddenly blazed, and a pair of massive white wings emerged. The wings were nearly ten zhang long, with white feathers reaching for the sky.

His eyes suddenly snapped open, a pair of silver pupils releasing a world-destroying killing power. His gaze was cold and emotionless, just like the Heavenly Dao.

Wings on his back, and the Heavenly Dao in his eyes?

Xiao Chen and the experts behind him couldn't help but gasp.

"Brother Xiao, this is..." a scarlet-robed man asked.

"Creation Heavenly Palace... Body of the Heavens? This generation of the Creation Heavenly Palace actually produced a Body of the Heavens!" Blood Axe Xiao Chen's eyes widened as he exclaimed.

"Body of the Heavens? What's going on? This is the legendary Saint-Dao Physique; how could it appear in this barren Lower Plane?"

A scarlet-robed man cried out, his heart wavering.

"Hmph, so what if it's the Body of the Heavens? Can he stop us eight Pseudo-Supreme experts with just his own power?"

"The Body of the Heavens is full of treasures. Today, we shall slaughter this Body of the Heavens and use his essence blood to nourish our Divine Artifacts!" another scarlet-robed man sneered cruelly.

Xuan Chen was as cold as the Heavenly Dao. The pair of white wings on his back spread open as if unlocking his own power. A world-destroying heavenly might rose up to confront the eight Pseudo-Supreme experts.

"Eight Pseudo-Supremes?" In the distance, Hun Tiandi's face was gloomier than ever before.

The strength of that skeleton-like person from the Land of Ten Thousand Graves earlier was at the level of the Sovereign Small Three Tribulations.

But now there were eight of them, and all were Pseudo-Supreme experts?
