Chapter 634: Plunder!
Chapter 634: Chapter 634: Plunder!
A group of people were moving with great momentum toward the mountain.
Upon reaching the summit, Chen Xiao looked at the massive gate before him, a slight smile flickering at the corners of his mouth, then he stepped inside.
Pushing through that gate, one arrived at the Heavenly Battle Platform.
And the moment he crossed that threshold, Chen Xiao felt an imprint left within his body.
This imprint seemed to be a kind of special rule of power.
Simultaneously, a shadow resembling a Talisman Inscriptions appeared before him.
Xiyue said, "This is the imprint for everyone who enters the Heavenly Battle Platform. You can leave your name on it, and if, by then, your achievements in the platform rank among the top hundred on this Heavenly Battle Stele, your name will appear on it."
"I see." Chen Xiao nodded slightly, then fluidly penned his name on it with bold strokes.
Thereafter, his name transformed into a rain of light, which was absorbed into the massive Heavenly Battle Stele.
After that, Chen Xiao felt an extraordinary connection with the Heavenly Battle Platform.
Next, he glanced across the Heavenly Battle Platform.
Unexpectedly, upon truly entering the platform, Chen Xiao realized that the space here was far larger than it appeared from the outside, and one could not see the end at a glance.
Moreover, looking up at the sky, there were endless stars shining all around the Heavenly Battle Platform.
Chen Xiao casually scanned the platform.
In many places, intense battles were erupting.
Quite a few martial artists had already entered the platform earlier, so the battles at this moment were extremely fierce.
Each of them carried a significant amount of War Qi.
At the very least, several zhang tall.
At that moment, one of the places in the midst of intense battle reached a conclusion.
As the defeated martial artist was eliminated, the War Qi several zhang high on him was entirely absorbed by the opposing martial artist. After absorbing the other’s War Qi, the victorious martial artist’s War Qi suddenly surged by several zhang, reaching a height of ten zhang!
"I must admit, the design of the Heavenly Battle Platform is indeed quite user-friendly, saving me a lot of trouble. I just need to target those martial artists with strong War Qi and plunder their War Qi," Chen Xiao mused internally.
Thinking this, his figure flickered, heading straight towards that martial artist.
Seeing Chen Xiao charging at him, that martial artist sneered, "Courting death!"
He was already quite powerful, and after absorbing so much War Qi, not even martial artists at the forefront of the Transcendent List were his match.
This raw youngster dared to target him?
Ignorant of his limits!
One should know, to gain the advantage of a Spiritual Power infusion from the Heavenly Battle Platform, many would avoid conflict with martial artists whose War Qi surpassed theirs unless necessary.
As the opponent’s strength could likely exceed their own.
If defeated, the War Qi arduously plundered would become a gift to others.
Simply put, risk is proportional to reward!
Opting for martial artists weaker than oneself to continuously plunder their War Qi to strengthen oneself is the wise course.
However, within a breath or two, Chen Xiao reached him before he could react, so resolving Chen Xiao was his only option.
He sneered, "Kid, although your War Qi is pitifully weak, even a little piece of meat is still meat, and I won’t be lenient!"
Upon speaking, he instantly unleashed his cultivation, his body shooting towards Chen Xiao like a bolt of lightning.
"Boom—" A dull sound echoed.
Swiftly after...
The smugness on that martial artist’s face gradually turned to shock!
The immense force swept in from the opposite side, leaving him completely unable to defend. In a brief instant, his body was shattered to pieces by Chen Xiao’s powerful strike!
With the scattering light rain, Chen Xiao felt the opponent’s vast power surge onto him, with countless War Qi howling in, finally converging above his head...
Chen Xiao clenched his fist, "Ten zhang of War Qi, this battle power boost is not bad."
"But it’s still not enough..."
He gazed into the distance.
In the distance, faintly visible, several overwhelming War Qi towers soared, each dozens of zhang tall, even approaching a hundred zhang, indicating how fearsome their owner was on the Heavenly Battle Platform.
Zi Yuan and Xiyue led people from two major forces and came over as well.
Seeing the ten zhang of War Qi above Chen Xiao’s head, they couldn’t help but show a hint of astonishment.
This guy, sure enough, is simple and brutal enough.
"Let’s go, head over there. It seems there are many martial artists over there," Chen Xiao said.
He could sense that in the east where they were, several strong War Qi presences existed.
These were his prey.
Upon hearing Chen Xiao, everyone didn’t hesitate and followed him.
Sure enough, before long, they saw a group of martial artists.
These martial artists are fiercely battling each other, trying to seize the war qi that has accumulated on their opponents.
Although the war qi on them isn’t much, unlike that previous martial artist, there are still several meters high worth, and those who remain on the Heavenly Battle Platform till now are no ordinary folks; their strength is naturally exceptional.
Moreover, after several rounds of competition, this war qi will become increasingly concentrated, ultimately gathering on the victors.
Chen Xiao’s figure flickered as he joined the battle circle directly.
He swept across the area, and in an instant, several martial artists were directly eliminated by him.
Soon, the war qi above his head was nearly approaching thirty meters in height.
This war qi lingered above his head, the sound of the wind howling, making the aura emanating from his body even more terrifying.
The faces of those martial artists showed expressions of shock.
Who is this guy?
He just entered the arena, and in a blink of an eye, he already gathered thirty meters of war qi?
This speed is simply astonishing!
However, just at this moment, Chen Xiao suddenly glanced sideways, discovering that in the northern direction, another burst of war qi surged, instantly growing from around sixty meters to eighty meters!
This made his eyes reveal an excited look.
If he could absorb this war qi, he could achieve a hundred meters of war qi in one go!
While everyone was in shock, another burst of Heaven-reaching war qi rose from the ground.
"One hundred... one hundred and twenty meters?!"
"Oh my God! This is the first person on this Heavenly Battle Platform to achieve one hundred and twenty meters of war qi, right? For decades, no one has ever achieved such a colossal amount of war qi!"
With this much war qi, if it dissipates all at once, one could directly break through a small realm!
Undoubtedly, this holds immense allure for them.
But... could the person who achieves one hundred and twenty meters of war qi be a simple character?
Chen Xiao directly ignored these small fish and shrimp and headed straight toward the direction where the sixty-meter war qi had risen; his current target was to seize the opponent’s war qi.
Chen Xiao rapidly moved, and soon he saw from afar the owner of that sixty-meter war qi.
A person from the Wushen Sect!
The opponent was sitting cross-legged on the ground. Seemingly sensing Chen Xiao’s arrival, he slowly opened his eyes, scanning Chen Xiao all over, revealing a hint of excitement in his eyes.
"Thirty-meter war qi... not bad. If I snatch the war qi from you, I’d also have ninety meters of war qi. Kid, you can only blame your bad luck!"
The Wushen Sect’s protector slowly stood up, and his gaze was also fixed on Chen Xiao and the others.
Then, the Half-step Transcendent cultivation erupted fully!
"A protector-level expert?" Xiyue showed a hint of astonishment. A protector-level expert from the Wushen Sect is at least a starting level at the Half-step Transcendent Realm.
Coupled with such a massive amount of war qi as augmentation, can Chen Xiao withstand the opponent?
Chen Xiao didn’t care about their worries and walked toward the protector of the Wushen Sect, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground.
"Hmph! Do you three-legged cats think you can seize the war qi from us? Dream on!"
"Although your thirty-meter war qi isn’t much, even mosquitoes are meat. This protector will unceremoniously accept it."
The blue-clad protector said, showing a tinge of greed, with his gaze fixed intently on Chen Xiao.
Chen Kaisheng, although not as strong as the Saint Heir of the Wushen Sect, being at the protector level of the sect means he certainly possesses strength, ranking among the top three among all protectors.
Unreservedly, he belongs in the top five among all those entering the Tianyuan Secret Realm.
Facing an unknown kid, there is zero pressure.
The Half-step Transcendent cultivation erupted.
With the addition of that sixty-meter war qi, the aura on his body became particularly terrifying. The abundant spiritual power on his body merged with the war qi, becoming overwhelming, and then, with a flicker of his figure, he swiftly charged toward Chen Xiao.
Every step he took made the ground in this area slightly tremble!
At the moment of punching, one could see the war qi above his head merge with the spiritual power, forming a giant fist shadow, which then, with overwhelming power, smashed toward Chen Xiao!
Chen Xiao slightly narrowed his eyes, realizing that the guy’s strength was indeed a bit formidable, but still, it was too weak for him now.
He also mobilized all his strength, then integrated the war qi he had gathered into himself, augmenting his combat power, and suddenly clenching his five fingers, he slammed toward that giant fist shadow!
Nine-layered Strength, instant eruption!
The power of his fist concentrated on one point, and upon touching that giant fist shadow, it shattered several meters of the shadow in just an instant!
"What?!" Chen Kaisheng was shocked!
This guy broke through such a powerful attack of mine as easily as eating food?
He was filled with disbelief as Chen Xiao’s fist, carrying immense explosive power, collided hard with his fist! Accompanied by a large mass of blood mist erupting, his entire arm shattered!
Chen Kaisheng staggered back as his internal organs were severely injured, his face pallid as paper, and then, without hesitation, he turned to flee, wanting to escape!
If he continued entangled here with Chen Xiao, all the war qi he had painstakingly plundered would be given to Chen Xiao, benefiting him!
"Trying to escape?!" Chen Xiao’s lips curled into a cold, disdainful smile, his figure as fast as lightning, blocking him with a sideways movement, "I’ll be unceremonious in accepting your sixty meters of war qi!"
