Chapter 2121 (Raw 2226): Kill

No matter how depressed Sovereign Emperor Xing Ge was, the Heavenly Alliance’s test had to proceed. The purple-haired old man waved his hand to get the crowd to quiet down. He said, “All of you probably know the rules for the second stage already, so I will not repeat them. Nangong Feng!”

“Here!”

Nangong Feng stepped forward and performed a cupped-fist salute while bowing. He shouted, “Greetings, Lord Shangguan.”

“The difficulty of the Heavenly Alliance’s test is the highest it has ever been. You should be the one with the best chance of passing the test out of everyone in the Desolate City test zone. Don’t disappoint me. Don’t let my Desolate City test zone experience a complete wipe-out. Everyone is watching you,” the purple-haired old man said gravely to Nangong Feng, filled with hope for him.

Nangong Feng felt immense pressure. He replied seriously, “This humble one will definitely do my best to pass the second stage.”

The purple-haired old man turned his head and shifted his gaze. Then, he said, “Xiao Chen.”

“Present.”

Xiao Chen stepped forward and bowed slightly. He said softly, “Greetings, Lord Shangguan.”

Shangguan Yun looked at Xiao Chen with a somewhat complicated expression. He could not understand this youth.

Xiao Chen had a great opportunity that many people did not even dare to dream of. To think that he actually rejected it!

However, this makes sense, as well. Xiao Chen is the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor’s follower. Back then, the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor retired at the height of his career.

“Just do your best. Don’t feel too much pressure. I think very highly of you. Even if you cannot pass the Heavenly Alliance’s test this time, I can pave the way for you on behalf of the Heavenly Alliance if you are willing.”

The purple-haired old man’s words already counted as a remarkable evaluation. He still held Xiao Chen in high esteem.

Xiao Chen had already accomplished so much at such a young age. As long as he could become a Sovereign Emperor, he would definitely become a Faux God.

“Thank you, Lord Shangguan.”

The purple-haired old man shifted his gaze again and looked at the people preparing to participate in the loser’s arena battles. He said softly, “The loser’s group, there is still hope. You all know how cruel the loser’s arena battles are, yet you dare to challenge it. I respect all of you. Let’s begin!”

Operated by many Sovereign Personages, the Starry Heavens Dao Platform slowly activated.

Xiao Chen and Nangong Feng stood together. The people participating in the loser’s arena battles moved to the sides, clearing the area.

“Can you tell me why you rejected a core Doyen’s invitation?” Nangong Feng looked curiously at Xiao Chen. Many people could not understand this.

Xiao Chen pondered for a moment before answering honestly, “I do not want to be fettered. I hope to use my own strength to enter the Heavenly Alliance.”

Surprise flashed in Nangong Feng’s eyes. He could feel the sincerity in the other party’s tone. These were Xiao Chen’s true thoughts.

“I wish you good luck.”

Such a reply made Nangong Feng think highly of Xiao Chen, causing him to say some words of blessing.

“Whoosh!”

The formations activated. The thousands of people joining the loser’s arena battles disappeared from the Dao Platform first. Closely following that, Xiao Chen and Nangong Feng disappeared.

The people participating in the loser’s arena battle would undergo a battle royal with ten thousand people. The surviving person would continue to the next round. Out of the hundreds of thousands of people, only the final ten would qualify to enter the Heavenly Alliance.

The winner’s group would have one hundred people in each battle royal. There would be one hundred secret realms used for this. The survivor of each secret realm could enter the Heavenly Alliance.

“Whoosh!”

One hundred light screens appeared in the Starry Heavens. The scene of the second stage for the cultivators who passed the first stage appeared before everyone.

No light screens appeared for the loser’s group. In theory, they were all eliminated.

“Lord City Lord, Xiao Chen is in the light screen for Secret Realm 8!”

After Old Cui found Xiao Chen, he immediately informed the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor.

In the light screen for Secret Realm 8, a large continent floated amid the Starry Heavens. Sovereign Personages could cross the whole continent in the blink of an eye. There was nowhere to hide; hiding was impossible.

At this moment, all the Sovereign Personages of Desolate City focused their gazes on the light screens showing the secret realms where Xiao Chen and Nangong Feng were.

The intense killing would soon begin.

Those who could enter the second stage were all powerful Sovereign Personages; there were no weaklings.

The first stage was already sufficiently cruel. Weaklings had no chance of passing it.

Xiao Chen arrived on top of a mountain on the continent. When he checked his surroundings, he found the auras of the strong everywhere. Every one of these people was accumulating power in secret, waiting for the killing to begin.

One out of one hundred. He who survived to the end was king, gaining the qualification to enter the Heavenly Alliance.

Xiao Chen looked around and discovered a familiar figure, Gong Liangyu.

That was right. It was Xiao Chen’s old opponent, Gong Liangyu. Both of them actually ended up in the same secret realm for the second stage.

“Whoosh!”

At this moment, the other party sensed Xiao Chen’s presence as well. Their gazes met, and an invisible clash ensued.

Gong Liangyu smiled lightly and murmured, “Interesting.”

Xiao Chen felt slightly stunned and surprised. However, he soon calmed down.

Before the second test started, the Realm Spirit restrained all of them. The most important thing was to remain calm.

The many Sovereign Emperors in the Starry Heavens above Desolate City were set abuzz.

“Gong Liangyu! Both Gong Liangyu and Xiao Chen appeared in Arena 8. It’s over!”

“Xiao Chen’s situation was not good in the first place. Now, he met with Gong Liangyu. Truly, enemies always cross paths.”

“Besides Gong Liangyu, there are many other experts in Secret Realm 8. I took a quick look, and several of them were within the overall top one hundred ranks.”

“If only Xiao Chen had known this. I wonder if he regrets rejecting Lord Suiren Ji’s invitation?”

The Sovereign Emperors did not think much of Xiao Chen’s chances in the first place. Now, Xiao Chen ended up in the same group as Gong Liangyu in the second stage.

Some people guessed that someone had purposely arranged this.

After all, it was too much of a coincidence for Xiao Chen and Gong Liangyu to meet each other in the second stage. This simply left no path out for Xiao Chen.

“City Lord, aside from Gong Liangyu, there is also a person called Lin Xi in Secret Realm 8. Lin Xi ranked within the top twenty in the first stage in his secret realm and is within the overall top hundred. There are four or five other people who are not to be trifled with,” Old Cui reported softly from beside the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor. Xiao Chen’s situation was not good.

“While they are not to be trifled with, Xiao Chen is not to be trifled with, either. It would not be simple for anyone to try to trample on Xiao Chen,” the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor said indifferently. Although he did not think that Xiao Chen could become the final victor, he had enormous confidence in Xiao Chen’s strength. Even if Xiao Chen failed, anyone who wanted to snatch the victory from Xiao Chen would have to pay a price.

Standing at the side, Old Cui remained silent. He did not know where the Peach Blossom Sovereign Emperor got his confidence from. Was it because Xiao Chen was now a Great Perfection Sovereign Personage?

Most of the people who survived the first stage were mostly Peak Sovereign Personages. Furthermore, these people had remained stuck at Peak Sovereign Personage for more than one hundred years.

Xiao Chen’s cultivation was nothing much compared to the other participants

“Whoosh!”

The familiar little light figure appeared on the continent. It eyed the crowd and said, “Congratulations to everyone for passing the previous stage of the Heavenly Alliance’s test. In this stage, the last survivor is king. He who survives to the end qualifies to enter the Heavenly Alliance.

“Whether you agree or not, the continent under your feet will continuously shrink. Eventually, the continent will hold only one person. Those who fall off the continent will be eliminated. I now formally announce the start of the second stage!”

After the Realm Spirit spoke, Xiao Chen felt the restraints on him vanish; now, he could move freely.

The battle royal instantly started. Without hesitation, everyone sought out the participants around them and ruthlessly launched attacks.

Kill!

Gong Liangyu, the most dazzling of the one hundred participants here, spread out his Dao Domain. His palm danced about, throwing palm strike after palm strike. He continuously sent out palm winds that were dense and heavy. Furthermore, the palm winds contained sharp sword lights.

If one did not pay attention and got struck by the sword Qi, one would be severely injured on the spot.

In the blink of an eye, the terrifying Gong Liangyu killed two genius participants. At this moment, the strength that he showed was even more horrifying than what he showed in the first stage.

This made sense after some thought. If one won this stage, one could enter the Heavenly Alliance no matter what.

Hence, one no longer needed to hide one’s strength; one just needed to guarantee one’s victory.

Except for Gong Liangyu, Lin Xi and the others who ranked in the overall top hundred brought out their full power, not holding back at all.

Amid the chaotic battles, the calm Xiao Chen wielded his Tyrant Saber. His aura appeared weak and inexperienced compared to the group of three-hundred- or four-hundred-year-old Sovereign Personages.

However, Xiao Chen’s aura contained explicit killing intent, might, and pressure.

Xiao Chen held absolute confidence in his heart, not afraid at all. He analyzed calmly, “The strong will only fight each other at the end. The weak will be eliminated first. Right now, the peak experts are all projecting their auras to prove their qualifications to fight to the end. I also do not have to hide too much. I need to end my battles quickly and prove my strength.”

Suddenly, a Candle Dragon image appeared. Candle flame flashed in its eyes. Immediately, two Peak Sovereign Personages charging at Xiao Chen caught fire. A terrifying, icy flame burned their souls and bodies.

Kill!

Xiao Chen’s eyes turned cold and emotionless. As he drew his Tyrant Saber, an intense saber intent instantly spread out.

When he attacked, he started with the Mahāmāyā Abstinence Violation Saber Technique’s Resolving the Mundane.

A swastika appeared on his forehead as he lost all the expressions that should belong to people of the mundane world.

Once the mundane heart was resolved, it would be eternal.

Xiao Chen sent out an eternal and inextinguishable saber light. The cold and headstrong Buddhist Might relentlessly crushed the two Peak Sovereign Personages’ auras.

“Damn it! What is this flame? I am much slower, and my soul is still burning!”

“Quickly, attack! This saber light is not easy to deal with.”

The two Peak Sovereign Personages still had to face Xiao Chen’s Resolving the Mundane after getting burned by Xiao Chen’s Candle Dragon Eyes.

The two Peak Sovereign Personages immediately felt flustered.

“Dang! Dang! Dang!”

After executing Resolving the Mundane, Xiao Chen repeatedly used the Flawless saber Dao.

The body as a saber, the will as a saber, the heart as a saber. He burst out with full force, not holding anything back. After ten moves, he killed the two Peak Sovereign Personages.

“Ka ca!”

The spurting blood appeared on the light screen together with the decapitated heads showing disbelief.

The many Sovereign Emperors on the thrones above Desolate City’s Starry Heavens—and also the purple-haired old man—felt stunned upon seeing that.

Xiao Chen easily killed two Peak Sovereign Personages on his own.
