Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 1326



Chapter 1326: Spirit of a King

As Xiao Chen traveled, he completely forgot that this was an island. It seemed more like a heavenly palace. The deeper he went, the more unfathomable it felt.

"That is Fiend Master Peak. My martial uncles are all there." Di Xinhan pointed to a peak that was in the clouds. Then, he took the lead and flew over.

The boundless clouds and mist undulated. Walking in them was like walking in the sea, extremely peculiar.

The summit of the peak was shaved into a vast platform that had a huge drill ground with many Fiend Race experts exchanging moves there.

Several gazes shot over to Xiao Chen and revealed curious expressions as the Fiend Race experts whispered to each other.

"That is the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen. I heard that the three Vice Island Masters are gathered in Fiend Master Hall!"

"This is a great show of extravagance. Aside from major characters on the level of the Holy Masters, it seems like the three Vice Island Masters never gathered like that before. Could this Xiao Chen be equal to these major characters?"

"I wonder if his true capabilities are as legendary as the stories say."

"It's true that the stories about him are extremely amazing, making them feel false."

With Xiao Chen's sharp Spiritual Sense, he could hear them no matter how soft their whispers were. However, his heart was as calm as still water, not caring about these in the slightest.

There was a magnificent terrace behind the drill ground. The steps leading to it were made of huge rocks. Xiao Chen and Di Xinhan climbed them one by one.

When the two stood on the high terrace, Xiao Chen looked around and saw three unfathomable Fiend Race old men with auras as heavy as a mountain. They sat cross-legged on stone pillars and looked at him.

These gazes caused Xiao Chen to feel a faint prickling sensation on his skin. These gazes were too sharp, especially the one from the old man in the middle. It wanted to see through all of Xiao Chen's secrets.

However, right now, Xiao Chen is not a person that just anyone could peer into. With some resistance, he prevented them from peeping into his secrets.

Di Xinhan stepped forward and introduced, "This is my first martial uncle, Di Feng. He is an Eighth Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor and is not much weaker than the human race's three Holy Masters. These two are my second martial uncle and third martial uncle; both of them are Sixth Heaven Martial Emperors."

There was a hurdle at Sixth Heaven. If one could not clear it, one would forever be a Greater Heavenly Martial Emperor, unable to become a Sovereign. Once one cleared it, one would be called a Sovereign.

Xiao Chen performed cupped-fist salutes and sized up Di Feng with a gaze. It went without saying that Di Feng had the highest status among the three Vice Island Masters.

"Sit!" Di Feng extended his hand towards a stone pillar, inviting Xiao Chen to have a seat.

Xiao Chen gently pushed off the ground and imitated the three Vice Island Masters, sitting on it cross-legged.

Di Feng's gaze remained cold as he said in a deep voice, "Among the Immortal Holy Lands, the Myriad Fiend Island is the most out-of-the-way and uninteresting. The Azure Dragon King traveled a long way to come here. Speak your mind. Our Fiend Race is not good at beating about the bush; just be direct."

As Di Feng spoke, the Emperor's Might of an Eighth Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor spread out, filling the place.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

All three Vice Island Masters fixed their gazes on Xiao Chen. The place instantly filled with heavy pressure bearing down.

When Di Xinhan saw this, he could not help feeling worried for Xiao Chen, who was the focus of the Emperor's Might of three Martial Emperors. Furthermore, Xiao Chen sat cross-legged. If he was not careful, he would fall immediately, making a fool of himself.

However, Di Xinhan could not speak in this place. Xiao Chen was here to convince his great grandfather. If he could not clear this stage, there would not be any need for the rest.

Even more importantly, the many elders of the Myriad Fiend Island were hidden behind Di Xinhan's three martial uncles, watching Xiao Chen.

Speaking of which, Di Xinhan was the only one immersed in cultivation, unaware of the situation of the outside world. Actually, the Myriad Fiend Island's upper echelon could more or less guess why Xiao Chen was here.

Everyone knew that the Deity Dao Union was flourishing. The Three Holy Lands' joining the alliance pushed the Supreme Sky Sect into a corner. Xiao Chen was intimately interdependent with the Supreme Sky Sect. His visit to the Myriad Fiend Island definitely had a deeper meaning to it.

As the Emperor's Might surged over, the pressure on Xiao Chen increased. However, the Taiji Dao had already improved his mental state to that of a Prime's. He formed a small Taiji force field and gently waved his hand, immediately scattering the pressure like the wind.

Xiao Chen's move startled the three Vice Island Masters. To think that he could resolve the pressure from their auras so easily!

"Great disaster is approaching the Supreme Sky Sect. I would like to ask the Myriad Fiend Island to lend a hand at the crucial moment," Xiao Chen said directly.

"Interesting. What does the Supreme Sky Sect encountering great disaster have to do with our Myriad Fiend Island?" the gray-robed old man at Di Feng's left asked, mockery lacing his words.

The black-robed old man on the right said in a similarly cold voice, "Azure Dragon King, you are really direct, daring to say anything. Why should the Myriad Fiend Island help you?"

Di Feng frowned and raised his hand, stopping the two from continuing. He looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Truth be told, the Deity Race's envoy just left after inviting the Myriad Fiend Island to join the Deity Dao Union. I did not agree or reject her proposal. I would like to ask, what can the Azure Dragon King offer us?"

When dealing with an Immortal Holy Land like the Myriad Fiend Island, Tian Youxi and the others would not treat it the way they had the Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace. They made an extremely generous offer, resulting in the other two Vice Island Masters viewing Xiao Chen with some enmity.

Xiao Chen shook his head and smiled. "I will not make any offer."

The moment Xiao Chen said this, the other two Vice Island Masters made faces of disdain. This also set the hidden Fiend Race elders abuzz in surprise.

This shocked even Di Xinhan. Could it be that Brother Xiao Chen came empty-handed?

When Di Feng heard this, a strange look flashed in his eyes, instead. Then, he withdrew his Emperor's Might and guffawed. "Interesting. Heroes indeed come from youths. You actually dare to come to me empty-handed to ask for help! Xiao Chen, we old men never took you seriously as the Azure Dragon King from the start."

The other party was a true major character, an Eighth Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor, someone almost comparable to the Three Holy Masters. He was indeed qualified to say something like this.

Oh no, the three martial uncles are all angry!

Di Xinhan thought that this was going badly. He said, "Uncle Feng, Xiao Chen probably has not thought this through yet. That's…" 

Di Feng raised his hand, stopping Di Xinhan. Staring at Xiao Chen, he said, "Don't say anything; let him do it himself. I want to know what gave him such great courage to dare to be so frivolous, speaking so boldly like that!"

Di Feng's gaze was very sharp. His words pushed Xiao Chen into a dead end.

The other two Vice Island Masters on the left and right revealed cold expressions in their eyes, feeling secretly joyful. This Xiao Chen does not know the height of the sky and the depths of the earth. He immediately said that he would not make an offer, offending Big Brother.

When he said that, he did not take his own strength into account, not understanding what it meant.

Up on the high terrace, countless gazes—both covert and overt—turned towards Xiao Chen at the same time, invisibly suppressing Xiao Chen's aura to the limit.

Everyone waited in silence for Xiao Chen to speak. If he did not give a good reply, Di Feng might toss him out of Myriad Fiend Island, completely embarrassing him. That would teach him a lesson on speaking without thinking before major characters.

If Xiao Chen quickly apologized and negotiated properly, there might be a chance.

Di Xinhan felt very anxious. However, when he looked at Xiao Chen, he noticed that Xiao Chen did not appear flustered at all. He did not know what Xiao Chen had up his sleeves.

Xiao Chen avoided Di Feng's gaze. He looked down like he was muttering to himself. He said in a soft, diffident voice, "I'm just speaking the truth. I am indeed unable to make an offer, and it is not with the intent of disrespecting Senior. My Dragon's Gate is recently reestablished. No matter what offer I make, it will not be able to compete with what the Deity Race can offer, always losing out to them."

The two Vice Island Masters on the left and right snorted coldly. "You are rather self-aware. Since you know it already, then quickly scram. The Myriad Fiend Island absolutely will not help the Supreme Sky Sect deal with this calamity."

Xiao Chen ignored these two's mockery and ridicule. He continued, "Since that is so, then what is the point of making an offer? The Deity Race already made a big offer, but Senior Di Feng did not agree. Aren't you just waiting for me to come?"

Right after Xiao Chen spoke, he raised his head slightly, and a bright light appeared in his eyes as he released his aura without reservation.

Despite the absence of any wind, Xiao Chen's white hair fluttered about. One could vaguely hear the hum of countless saber hums—the kind of aura that one could casually display when the Saber Dao reached a certain level.

The moment Xiao Chen said that, the entire place fell dead silent; no sound could be heard. The two Vice Island Masters who mocked him were shocked into gaping by his words.

How is he so confident, to dare to show his sharpness like that before a Sovereign Martial Emperor?

Could it be that we were really waiting for him?

"Now, the Thunder Sovereign is no longer around. Do you really think that you are the Azure Dragon King? Big Brother, just chase him away."

"To think that you dare to be so unruly in Myriad Fiend Island! Xiao Chen, you must be tired of living."

The angry expressions of the two Vice Island Masters on the left and right revealed a murderous intent. Xiao Chen's confidence and arrogance thoroughly angered them. However, the two of them vaguely felt that something was not quite right.

Di Feng, who held the highest authority, appeared angry and radiated an oppressive aura. In reality, however, the situation seemed close to what Xiao Chen said.

These two Vice Island Masters had privately accepted several benefits from the Deity Race and made them great promises. They could not let anything untoward derail their plans. Forced by circumstance, they could only use this to turn hostile to Xiao Chen, standing up in rage.

In contrast to the two Vice Island Masters' furious appearances, the countenance of the person-in-charge, Di Feng, seemed quite unusual. He was strangely calm with a smile on his face.

Ignoring the two raging Vice Island Masters, Xiao Chen gently pushed off the pillar and landed on the ground, then walked over to the center.

He looked directly at Di Feng and said, enunciating each word deliberately, "Senior Di, please verify whether I was right or not and tell the other two Vice Island Masters, as well as the many other Fiend Race seniors behind you."

Suddenly, all eyes focused on Di Feng, this Eighth Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor.

The surroundings fell silent once more as everyone held their breath, anxiously waiting to learn Di Feng's decision.

At this moment, Di Xinhan was filled with awe. This Brother Xiao Chen was truly courageous, demonstrating extraordinary bearing. He could maintain such a bearing before his uncle Feng, exposing his sharpness like that.

An Eighth Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor was a full-fledged major character.

Such a person possessed a high status. After accumulations over many years, his aura was extremely puissant. It could make others feel inferior without themselves realizing it, turning them passive in their actions.

Before everyone's eyes, Di Feng smiled faintly and said, "That's right. I, Di Feng, have been waiting for you. Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen, you indeed did not disappoint me, Di Feng!"
