Chapter 850: Sky Dome Immortal Lord

The Supreme Sky Emperor immediately understood what Xiao Chen intended. He smiled and said, "It looks like you want to deal with it yourself. In that case, I will not interfere. I have some things to discuss with the Sky Dome Realm's Supreme Sky Sect. I'll come to look for you three days from now. You should make use of these few days to make your preparations."

"I cannot thank you enough for your kindness," Xiao Chen said as he performed a cupped-fist salute.

If the Supreme Sky Sovereign acted, he would save Xiao Chen a lot of resources. However, all this was beside the point—which was the Supreme Sky Emperor's attitude.

While others were still hesitating, the Supreme Sky Emperor did not hesitate to step forward and support him. He was betting on Xiao Chen's future, gambling that his own vision was not mistaken and Xiao Chen would bring back the Azure Emperor's glory.

Xiao Chen had already made all the necessary preparations, so he actually did not have much to do.

After finding out that Yue Chenxi and Gong Yangyu had been sent to the Heavenly Battle Palace to cultivate as a result of them being true inheritors, Xiao Chen sought these two out to let them know of his plans.

As expected, the two had not even dreamed that Xiao Chen would return to the Sky Dome Realm at this critical moment.

The two's cultivation had advanced very rapidly in the Heavenly Battle Palace, having already reached half-Sage.

Furthermore, the two had heard that in half a month, the Supreme Sky Emperor would forcibly break the barrier of the Savage Battlefield, giving everyone a chance to seek fortuitous encounters, to see if they could find their opportunity to advance to Martial Sage.

Endless fortuitous encounters and never-ending opportunities awaited them to try their luck. They were at a stage where they would always be able to find a chance to rise. Naturally, no one would agree to return to the Sky Dome Realm at this point.

When the two found out that Xiao Chen's mind was set on returning, they passed on messages and some of their resources to Xiao Chen to bring back to their families.

Three days later, the Supreme Sky Emperor arrived before Xiao Chen as arranged.

The Supreme Sky Emperor closed his eyes tightly as though he was doing his best to sense something. Strands of vast Mental Energy pierced the void, firing the two of them to an unknown place.

After a while, the Supreme Sky Emperor opened his eyes. Sculptures of light flashed and appeared in the void, emanating extraordinary Immortal auras. It felt like these sculptures could destroy the world just by raising their hands.

"Chi!"

The Supreme Sky Emperor pointed, and one of the sculptures stopped flashing. It portrayed a handsome man dressed in jade clothes sewn with gold thread with a purple hairpin in his hair. Based on his getup, it looked like the depiction of immortals that Xiao Chen had seen in his previous life.

"I found it. Let's go!"

The Supreme Sky Emperor revealed a smile. With a casual wave, the sculpture of the handsome man turned into light and vanished. Big golden gates appeared behind where it had been.

These gates had dense talisman scripts carved on them and a purple talisman pasted on the crack between them. The Supreme Sky Emperor shouted lightly and threw a punch. The talisman shattered, and the gates burst open.

The Supreme Sky Emperor extended his hand, and their figures flashed, entering the gates. A dark space-time tunnel appeared around the two as they traveled at what seemed to be the speed of light.

As they flew forward quickly, the Supreme Sky Emperor said gently, "That was the Sky Dome Immortal Lord earlier. During the Immortal Epoch, the Sky Dome Realm was his residence. Of the three thousand Immortal Lords, he was the strongest."

This revelation surprised Xiao Chen. He had not expected the Supreme Sky Emperor to tell him a story known only to a few. Unexpectedly, the three thousand great realms were just the residences of the three thousand Immortal Lords.

The Supreme Sky Emperor smiled and said, "Don't be too surprised. Immortal Lords were already the peak experts of the Immortal Epoch. The only thing stronger than an Immortal Lord was an Immortal Emperor. As for their residences becoming the three thousand great realms, there is nothing strange about it. Once someone advances to Martial Emperor and comprehends Heavenly Laws, they will be able to create their own world after putting in some effort.

"Actually, the only point in telling you all this is that sooner or later, you too will advance to Martial Emperor. Then you will be able to open the gates of the Sky Dome Immortal Lord's residence for yourself."

As they spoke, Xiao Chen sensed a familiar aura. It seemed that he would be arriving at the Sky Dome Realm soon.

"Boom!"

A spatial crack opened, and the scene before Xiao Chen's eyes changed. They arrived at the Supreme Sky Sect's mountaintop in the Sky Dome Realm's Great Jin Nation.

Inside the space-time tunnel, the Supreme Sky Emperor waved his hand and said, "Due to certain arrangements, Martial Emperors are not allowed to appear in the Sky Dome Realm. I will not be coming out. When we meet again, show me a new reborn you."

The spatial crack mended, and the space-time tunnel the Supreme Sky Emperor opened closed.

Xiao Chen took in his surroundings and the ambient Spiritual Energy. Feeling somewhat discomfited, he smiled bitterly. "The difference is pronounced. Cultivating in the Sky Dome Realm will probably be less than half as effective compared to the Kunlun Realm. In both quality and quantity, the realms are too different."

"Whoosh!"

A figure flew up from below. Xiao Chen checked with his Spiritual Sense and made out that arriving person's appearance. It was the Supreme Sky Sect's Supreme Elder, Old Feng, someone that Xiao Chen knew.

Back then, Old Feng was the one who sent Xiao Chen and Yue Chenxi to the Kunlun Realm.

Xiao Chen did not dare to put on any airs before this person. Electric light flashed under his feet, and he quickly made his way over.


"It's you. Why are you back?"

When Old Feng saw Xiao Chen, incomparable shock appeared in his eyes. He had heard that an important guest from the main sect in the Kunlun Realm was coming down. Furthermore, the Supreme Sky Emperor personally sent him down.

However, Old Feng had not expected to see Xiao Chen. Furthermore, after not seeing Xiao Chen for two years, Xiao Chen had actually advanced to Martial Sage. His cultivation was so deep that even Old Feng found him unfathomable.

Xiao Chen performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "Greetings to Senior Feng."

Old Feng smiled bitterly and replied, "How can I dare to have you address me as Senior? Just call me Old Feng. Come, follow me and take a seat first."

Xiao Chen eyed his surroundings and thought of something. He felt it was strange and asked, "How come the Supreme Sky Sect's Sect Master is not here and needs to trouble Old Feng to come?"

Old Feng was the Supreme Elder. In regard to seniority, he stood even higher than the Sect Master. It was strange that Old Feng showed up but the Sect Master did not.

Old Feng smiled and said, "Little Brother Xiao Chen, you came at an opportune time. The frost flood dragon guarding the Tianwu Emperor's Grave in Desolate City is about to undergo a tribulation.

"According to rumor, with this tribulation, this frost flood dragon will either die or advance and become a True Dragon, leaving this world. Either way, it will not be able to continue guarding the Tianwu Emperor's grave."

His words triggered something in Xiao Chen's heart. Xiao Chen had been to the Desolate City's Hidden Dragon Lake before. It was there that he found out about Chu Chaoyun's true identity.

Back then, it seemed like that frost flood dragon sent him flying with a swipe of its claws. In actual fact, it helped him get rid of some lingering injuries and more hidden damage that he had not noticed.

At that time, he just completed one hundred consecutive victories in the dueling ring. In the process, the ordeal had apparently left some hidden damage in his body. If these injuries had not been cleared out quickly, they could have posed problems.

Xiao Chen had some gratitude towards this frost flood dragon. However, he just did not know why it had helped him.

Seeing that Xiao Chen seemed interested, Old Feng smiled and said, "Have a seat in the hall first, and I will tell you more in detail."

Inside the main hall of the Supreme Sky Sect branch, Xiao Chen sat next to Old Feng. The female disciple serving tea stole a glance at Xiao Chen.

This female disciple felt extremely curious. Who was this major character? Why could he sit next to the Supreme Elder? Furthermore, given the Supreme Elder's expression, he did not view this person as a junior.

Old Feng's position in the sect was even higher than the Sect Master's. Normally, the Sect Master would be the only person barely qualified to sit next to him.

As the female disciple sized up Xiao Chen, she found him familiar. However, she could not pin down where she had seen him before. When Xiao Chen and Old Feng picked up the teacups, she had to leave.

When the female disciple walked outside the hall, she seemed to recall something. She took out a book filled with names. The cover had the words "True Dragon Ranking" on it. Then, she flipped it open to the first page, and the picture of the person depicted in it entered her eyes.

She thought back to the appearance of that person; her heart could not help but thump hard. Unexpectedly, the White Robed Bladesman Xiao Chen was back. Furthermore, he was sitting next to the Supreme Elder on equal terms with him.

She wondered what kind of commotion this would cause if this news got out.

"The eight Noble Clans' Clan Heads and the Great Jin Nation's ten great sects' Sect Masters all went?" Xiao Chen asked calmly as he put down the teacup after listening to Old Feng's explanation.

Old Feng nodded his head and replied, "Almost all of them went. In fact, nearly all the Martial Sages in the Sky Dome Realm are there. It is hard to say what the first-generation Tianwu Emperor's grave is hiding."

The first-generation Tianwu Emperor was a Sovereign Martial Emperor that preceded the Azure Emperor by ten thousand years. The Sky Dome Realm abounded with countless legends about him.

However, Xiao Chen very rarely heard anything about this person in the Kunlun Realm. It was bizarre that such a powerful character with the overbearing Heavenly Flame had not left any legends in the Kunlun Realm.

Could it be that the first-generation Tianwu Emperor was like those people who made those vague marks on the top of the Sage Mark Monument? Had they mysteriously left this world and had not truly died?

Without having to speculate, the first-generation Tianwu Emperor had definitely been an extremely strong person. Since his grave was passed down, people would have a hard time resisting its temptation.

Xiao Chen compared his strength to Old Feng. Regarding cultivation, Old Feng was a Superior Grade Martial Sage, yet Xiao Chen did not feel any pressure from him at all.

Compared to the three Superior Grade Martial Sages from the Heaven and Earth Sect, the difference was like day and night. Now, Xiao Chen saw for himself the difference between advancing to Martial Sage in the Sky Dome Realm and doing so in the Kunlun Realm.

No wonder some of the Martial Sages in the Sky Dome Realm were not willing to go to the Kunlun Realm even after they accumulated sufficient resources. With their strength, if they went to the Kunlun Realm, they would not be qualified to do anything there. They might as well settle down in the lower realm where they would be the focus of everyone.

Xiao Chen thought for a while, and another question occurred to him. "What's going on with that frost flood dragon? From Old Feng's tone, it seems like this is not its first tribulation?"

Old Feng nodded his head and replied, "It has already had several. It seems to undergo a tribulation every one or two thousand years. This flood dragon did not choose to take human form. Instead, it took another route for the cultivation of Spirit Beasts. It has an extremely strong lifeforce. Although it has not advanced to the Martial Emperor level yet, regular Martial Emperors cannot do anything about it.

"This time, it has already reached its peak. If it succeeds in this tribulation, it will turn into a True Dragon, becoming a Frost True Dragon. At that time, due to the agreement between the Kunlun Realm and Demonic World, it will not be able to remain here.

"However, it is more likely to fail the tribulation and die. It has already lived for too long and exhausted most of its Luck. All the Martial Sages are waiting for it to die so they can loot the Tianwu Emperor's grave."

Xiao Chen knew that the Sky Dome Realm had not had any Martial Emperors for a long time. Previously, he did not know why. However, this was his second time to hear about this agreement already.

"What exactly is this agreement? Old Feng, can you tell me more about it?" Xiao Chen asked, feeling extremely curious.

Old Feng took a sip of tea before replying unhurriedly, "It is not a secret. There is no problem with telling you about it. After the Tianwu Dynasty was destroyed, the Martial God Palace and the Demonic World reached an agreement to work together to suppress the development of this realm."
