Chapter 1288: Dragon Race

I found it!

The scene fixed, and Xiao Chen saw everything that happened on that day as though he was there .

The pillar of light that descended from the sky had ancient words floating around in it . These were Dragon Race words, which Xiao Chen had seen in the dragon grave . Indeed, it was as he had guessed: Liu Ruyue’s disappearance was the doings of the Dragon Race from another realm .

He continued watching . Liu Ruyue did not show any pain on her face . When the light descended, it seemed to unlock a seal in her . Dragon Might spread out as she turned into a White Dragon and soared into the sky .

How strong! This Dragon Might even evoked a deep fear in Xiao Chen . Compared to Liu Suifeng’s description, the impact of the Dragon Might was significantly larger .

The Azure Dragon Yuanying in his body even opened its eyes and released its own Dragon Might .

After that, the scene changed: the White Dragon went through the hole in the sky before the gap started to close slowly . As the hole closed, Xiao Chen vaguely saw the White Dragon descend from the sky onto an ancient altar in a faraway land .

Tens of thousands of members of the Dragon Race surrounded the altar . They all knelt down with respectful expressions on their faces .

When this ended, Xiao Chen could not see anything more . He pulled back his finger, feeling depressed .

“Brother-in-law, how is my sister doing? Is she in danger?” Liu Suifeng asked anxiously .

Xiao Chen did not tell Liu Suifeng about the final scene that he saw . He said calmly, “It’s fine . It is possible that you will never see Ruyue again . However, I’m sure that she is fine . She might be doing better than we imagine . ”

Late at night at Qingyun Peak, a crescent moon hung high and a cold wind blew . This night was cold and lonely . Even the moon appeared very pale .

This night reflected how Xiao Chen felt right now, making him feel even colder and lonelier .

“Ao Jiao, do you remember, about half a year ago, I mentioned that the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign made a move on me?”

Ao Jiao nodded and said, “How can I not remember? I never saw you that flustered before . That really startled me . ”

Xiao Chen slowly filled his wine cup to the brim and drained it in one go . “I guessed wrong . That was not the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign making a move . It was when Liu Ruyue left this world . Everything about her was being mysteriously wiped out . The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign is not that capable . ”

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign’s strength was more than enough to make a move on Xiao Chen . However, even if the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign could do the same to so many people, he would not have the energy to do so .

“It is just like those ancient beings . They did not leave anything behind, ruthlessly erasing all traces of themselves in this abandoned land,” Xiao Chen drawled as he set down this wine cup .

Feeling enlightened, Ao Jiao said, “Half a year ago…that happens to coincide with when Liu Ruyue turned into a dragon . My memories must have been silently wiped away at that time . However, why were your memories not wiped away?”

Xiao Chen shook his head, indicating that he did not know . He remembered the strong Mental Energy from that time . He could not even resist it .

That Mental Energy easily sorted out the memories related to Liu Ruyue . However, when it was about to succeed, that mysterious energy suddenly stopped and retreated .

“What do you intend to do?” Ao Jiao asked somewhat worriedly .

Xiao Chen’s face sank . Suddenly, the wine cup in his hand shattered . “She is someone I made a promise to, the lover I will never abandon . She is the most beautiful memory in my life . Even in one thousand years or ten thousand years, even if divine beings or Buddhas get in the way, I have to chase after her . I can never give up!”

After understanding the truth behind Liu Ruyue’s departure, Xiao Chen stopped being so anxious . The thing that he feared the most was Liu Ruyue being captured by that Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign, which had been one of his original guesses .

However, that final scene of the many White Dragons kneeling in worship calmed his fears completely .

Xiao Chen did not know what the world outside the abandoned land was like . He also did not know why Liu Ruyue wiped out all traces of herself as those powerful ancient beings had .

However, all he needed to know was that Liu Ruyue was safe and not in the hands of the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign . That was enough .

Since those powerful ancient beings during the peak of the Martial Epoch could leave, then, he, Xiao Chen, could leave as well . As long as he had the patience and persistence, he would be able to meet Liu Ruyue again . He possessed a confidence that was even greater than the sky .

Since Xiao Chen was already at Qingyun Peak, he chose a peak where no one was and decided to settle down there .

He did not make a move to recover the memories of the others .

Firstly, it would be very problematic . Secondly, he feared attracting unnecessary trouble, prompting that mysterious powerhouse to make a move again .

As time passed on the mountain, Xiao Chen lived a much more leisurely life than when he was in the Kunlun Realm . Aside from cultivating according to his usual routine, he spent most of his time improving his Saber Domain .

After verifying that the saber was the foundation of the Saber Domain, Xiao Chen stopped wavering over which path was the wrong one . He would persist to the end, for this was the path that suited him to most .

Ao Jiao did not remain idle, either . She organized all of Xiao Chen’s resources, making preparations for the Lunar Shadow Saber’s breakthrough into the Divine Weapon Ranking .

Right now, Ao Jiao was still an Item Spirit, unable to completely separate herself from the Lunar Shadow Saber, which posed a hard limit to any improvement in her strength . After reaching her current bottleneck, she could break through it only by upgrading the Lunar Shadow Saber into a Divine Weapon; only then could she climb higher .

---

On this day, a cool breeze blew, and there were white clouds in the blue sky—such fine sunny weather . It was peaceful at the summit of the peak .

Xiao Chen leaned on a rock . The Lunar Shadow Saber was like a living creature, nimbly dancing around his palm, the back of his hand, and shoulder . It was a dazzling sight, too much for the eyes to take in .

However, his eyes and thoughts were not on this dazzling Lunar Shadow Saber . He simply let his right hand and the Lunar Shadow Saber happily play with each other .

Xiao Chen looked at the sunny sky and muttered, “I have stayed at the Heavenly Saber Pavilion for one month already . Such a peaceful environment is really good for comprehending the Saber Domain . Right now, I can already hide my power completely in every single blade of grass in the surroundings and those cirrus clouds . ”

Three months ago, his Saber Domain appeared very scary . Not only was there loud thunder, but there were also dark clouds . At that time, Xiao Chen had just comprehended the Saber Domain . Not understanding anything, he just let the power out .

When I think about it now, that was really crude . No wonder Senior Lan laughed at me for being like a hedgehog .

Based on what Senior Lan said, I have already moved from outward power to subtlety . With a thought, all the saber intent that fills the air is available for my use .

If I want to comprehend the Saber Domain further, I need to solidify this space, fusing my heart into the space within one kilometer around me . I need to transform the space within one kilometer of me into my space .

Saber Domain, Saber Domain . The thing being cultivated was the domain—which meant it was moving towards the state of space . On the other hand, the saber became a supplementary existence, a supporting character .

After all, the entire Kunlun Realm was of the opinion that the Space Dao was much greater than the Saber Dao .

The Space Dao was so hard to gain entry into . Cultivating it was even harder . In contrast, the Saber Dao was much simpler to gain entry into . Cultivating it was even simpler . How could they be mentioned in the same breath?

This was how Xiao Chen originally thought . However, as he cultivated the Saber Dao, his belief wavered .

The Saber Dao might not be weaker than the Space Dao; it was just that the vision of the Kunlun Realm’s Martial Emperors was limited, unable to perceive the basic nature of the Saber Dao .

Saber intent condensed in Xiao Chen’s heart . The nimble Lunar Shadow Saber immediately stopped dancing around and appeared in his tight grasp, pointing to the front .

Its scabbard came out smoothly and stabbed into the cliff in front . “Buzz!” The saber trembled, and space started to tremble along with it .

Withdraw! Xiao Chen shouted in his heart .

All the light within one kilometer slowly withdrew, presenting a very strange sight . Outside of this one kilometer, the blazing sun shone brightly, appearing quite glaring .

However, the light in the world within one kilometer of Xiao Chen gradually withdrew . When the light disappeared, it left an eternal darkness .

Slowly, slowly, all the light gathered on Xiao Chen . However, just at this moment, all the withdrawn light fluctuated intensely like a misbehaving little kid, scattering in confusion, returning to where it came from .

This was the direction that Xiao Chen took . He did not choose to solidify this space, merging his body and the Saber Domain, the direction that Lan Chaofeng took . Instead, he took another path, gathering everything within one kilometer on the saber in his hand .

A Saber Domain with the saber as the focus . Everything had to be on the saber . The saber could not be a supporting character .

“How difficult! Every time I reach this step, it immediately crumbles . I wonder, what would it be like after I start to grasp this path?”

Xiao Chen’s heart filled with anticipation and some anxiety . He did not know whether he could succeed in this path or not . Despite a thousand attempts, none of them panned out even once . He could not help feeling somewhat depressed .

“I should practice my Profound Martial Techniques . It is important to cultivate the Saber Domain, but I cannot let my Martial Techniques fall behind . ”

Xiao Chen soared into the air with a flip . As he grasped the Lunar Shadow Saber, he spun in the air .

All sorts of mysterious phenomena came out of his body . As the saber light gathered, they formed thousands of mountains appearing like a dragon, a glorious painting of a dragon roaring at the sky .

Xiao Chen smiled faintly . “Right now, I can already use my Instant of Glory freely . I can bring out whatever kind of glory I want . Again!”

With a thought, he swung the saber and created a glorious painting of tens of thousands of dragons soaring in the sky .

Then, the painting shattered into many pieces . As Xiao Chen brandished his saber, he felt very carefree and free of worry .

There is only my saber, Instant of Glory!

The Martial Technique that Xiao Chen had not perfected back then, throwing in everything he had, had slowly improved over time . Now, it was completely at his disposal; he could use it freely and pull it back whenever he wanted . There were all sorts of glory and all sorts of changes, appearing boundlessly wondrous .

After that, he practiced the Thousand Year Hegemony Establishment many times, having already brought this Martial Technique to perfection .

Unfortunately, this was a Medial Grade Profound Martial Technique that a predecessor left behind . Furthermore, there was only one move . Xiao Chen could not use it as freely as he could the Instant of Glory, which brought a carefree feeling gushing in his blood .

He stopped and frowned . “What a pity! This Thousand Year Hegemony Establishment should be a Saber Technique left behind by an ancient Saber Sovereign, so there should be a complete set of it . Unfortunately, I only got this one move . ”

In Xiao Chen’s cultivation of the Saber Dao, the Instant of Glory and the Thousand Year Hegemony Establishment were his strongest moves .

As for the others—Flawless Bright Moon, Thousand Frost Battle Snow, and the altered Four Season Saber Technique—they were somewhat weaker, only Inferior Grade Profound Martial Techniques .

After Xiao Chen practiced all his Saber Techniques, he casually tossed his saber into the saber scabbard stuck in the cliff .

Then, two bright moons soared up from behind him as he executed the Thousand Year Death and the Thousand Year Flame at the same time .

Hot-bloodedness and lofty aspiration; the grief of the past . The two bright moons were both beautiful in their own ways .
