Chapter 1435 (Raw 1425): Entering the Saber Sovereign Medallion Again

"Good plan. You not only managed to obtain the Evil Shadow Sword but even made the Celestial Demon Crown Scion a scapegoat. After the matter was over, you quickly left like the cool breeze, not leaving any traces behind. Chu Chaoyun, the way you do things still has not changed," Xiao Chen said softly with a faint smile under the mask.

When Xiao Chen collected the seven thrones and tried to form the state of cycle, he seemed to have seen his own fate. At the end of this fate, there was an apparently unavoidable battle with Chu Chaoyun. The other party had stood in the Sky Dome Realm, controlling the three thousand lower realms.

Chu Chaoyun's sword covered the sky as he said something about every ten thousand years being a cycle.

Chu Chaoyun smiled and said, "I think the same as well. There is no need for you to be surprised about it. Why did you come over? Are you here to snatch the Evil Shadow Sword?"

Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I have no interest in the Evil Shadow Sword. This sword is more symbolic than it is practical. I believe that you have no interest in it, either. So why did you join in the fight for it?"

"Not interested? Haha! Looks like I got nervous for nothing. In that case, I'll be leaving. The Kunlun Realm is rather chaotic, and I do not have much time to chat with you."

When Chu Chaoyun heard that, he smiled faintly and wanted to leave.

"Clang!"

Pride unsheathed and flew into the air. Then, it arrived in front of Chu Chaoyun after he had turned around, blocking his departure.

"Why the rush to leave? I came only to ask you something. Why all the schemes and wanting to fight with me? You said that every ten thousand years is a cycle. However, what do the grudges of ten thousand years ago have to do with me? Why live so bitterly?" Xiao Chen asked unhurriedly from the Cycle Throne as his expression suddenly turned grave.

When Chu Chaoyun heard these words, his expression changed slightly. His normally unruffled expression showed some fluctuations.

"When did I say this to you? How did you know about ten thousand years being a cycle? Who told you that? Did you go to the Azure Dragon Palace? That's not right. If you dared to go there now, just one of the few Primes there would be able to smash you to death!"

Chu Chaoyun analyzed, mumbling to himself. However, he failed to figure out anything important, ending up with only questions.

"You were the one who told me this. However, it is not in the present but in the future. Due to a coincidental opportunity, I peeked into certain parts of my fate in the Kunlun Realm. At the end of this fate, you personally told me that," Xiao Chen told Chu Chaoyun honestly, not planning to hide anything.

Farther away, Yao Manlan pricked up her ears. However, she was confused by what she heard. There were parts that she could not understand, but there were also parts that she could. It turned out that this Chu Chaoyun was old friends with this mysterious Shadowless Saber Sovereign.

Furthermore, the Shadowless Saber Sovereign was not here for the Evil Shadow Sword. Given that, she heaved a sigh of relief.

When Chu Chaoyun heard the word "fate," he appeared somewhat disappointed and frustrated. He smiled bitterly and said, "Fate…that's right. This is our fate. It was already fixed ten thousand years ago. Our goal is the same from the start to the end. We are both waiting for the opportunity that comes only once every ten thousand years. However, only one person can obtain this opportunity."

Xiao Chen said softly, "I have never believed in fate. If it is possible, I'm willing to give this opportunity to you."

Chu Chaoyun smiled and said, "Give it to me? If you give it to me, how are you going to find Liu Ruyue? You cannot give up this opportunity. Cultivate properly and come out of that war chariot sooner. Otherwise, you might not even be able to receive a sword strike from me."

Right after Chu Chaoyun spoke, another pupil appeared in the depths of his eyes. A crack appeared in the twin-pupiled eyes, and a strand of pure primal chaos aura spread out and shrouded both eyes. This materialized a boundless universe with thousands of stars flashing and dimming.

"Dang!"

Pride, which was behind him at the moment, appeared like it suffered a heavy blow. It was struck flying with a dull sound and returned to the back of the Cycle Throne.

"You have exhausted too much energy. Your combat prowess is not even at fifty percent. I won't fight with you. The next time we meet, I'll take away the Origin Flame of the Heavenly Flame in the Azure Dragon Palace. We will meet again in the future."

After knocking away Pride, which had been in his way, Chu Chaoyun landed beside Yao Manlan. Then, he picked her up and quickly went far away.

As Xiao Chen watched Chu Chaoyun leave, he entered deep thought. Chu Chaoyun had already told him what that opportunity was. That opportunity was the opportunity to leave the abandoned land, to seek a higher path of the Martial Dao.

Is the abandoned land really that difficult to leave?

However, this was not the time to consider this. Chu Chaoyun just revealed his strength. He comprehended the state of primal chaos and could already use it.

Xiao Chen needed to find the Cycle Arts quickly and merge the seven states to comprehend the state of cycle. Otherwise, he might truly be unable to block Chu Chaoyun.

"I have to find a place to recover my strength first!"

The Savage Battlefield was vast and boundless. It was not difficult to find someplace hidden. After a while, Xiao Chen descended into an empty valley.

Inside the war chariot, Xiao Chen took out two Essence Stones. Then, he closed his eyes and circulated the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation.

After he finished draining the two Essence Stones, his Primordial Energy was nearly back to its peak. However, the Mental Energy in his sea of consciousness had yet to recover completely.

Xiao Chen opened his eyes and then his hand. The Heavenly Snow Divine Flame slowly surged out.

There was a painting in his palm, the Beautiful Mountain and River Painting, which was a miniaturized space. Within his palm, snowflakes drifted about and a cold wind blew. The snow-white flame looked peaceful and quiet.

Xiao Chen revealed a faint smile. While he was sealed in ice and the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame worked on melting the cold Qi, the flame unexpectedly broke through and advanced to Rank 4.

Flames were separated into nine ranks. The higher the rank of the flame, the harder for it to rank up. For the primal-chaos-level Heavenly Snow Divine Flame, ranking up was even more difficult. Such luck truly made one rejoice.

Aside from this, Xiao Chen also discovered something else.

In his Heart of an Emperor, the one thousand strands of Primordial Energy had undergone a baptism of the cold, which raised its density significantly.

Originally, the one thousand strands of Primordial Energy only formed vague long lines. Now, there was a trace of a dragon's image. It seemed like continuing to refine the Primordial Energy would allow the one thousand strands of Primordial Energy to take on the shape of a dragon.

Primordial Energy turning into dragons was something that happened only with Primes. However, a Prime's Primordial Energy was much stronger than what Xiao Chen had right now.

Xiao Chen was still far from comparable to them. Even if his Primordial Energy turned into dragons, he would have difficulty defeating a Prime.

Xiao Chen withdrew the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame back into his palm. Then, he took out the Saber Sovereign Medallion. Now that his Primordial Energy had improved, he wanted to try and see whether he could open those gates.

He sent his Spiritual Sense into the Saber Sovereign Medallion and soon entered that mysterious world. In front was a majestic hall with an ancient aura, its gates tightly shut.

This prevented one from making out anything inside it, piquing one's curiosity.

Xiao Chen was no exception. He was very curious about the scene behind the gates.

"You are here." The Item Spirit Qing Yun appeared from nowhere. Smiling, she said, "Are you here to try to open the gates?"

Xiao Chen nodded. Then, without saying anything, he circulated his energy and pushed off with his feet. Then, he used his full power to launch a palm strike at the gates.

"Buzz!"

The gates opened a crack and immediately closed. Then, the rebound knocked Xiao Chen back.

The crack in the gate lasted for only a second. However, Xiao Chen got to see a lot in this one second.

Inside the hall were many statues that looked like they were alive. Their gazes were sharp like they were sabers standing there, neither servile nor overbearing.

They did not bend their backs, stubbornly standing. Some of the statues looked like they would shatter soon. However, they still showed no intention of falling over.

"The statues in there should depict the past generations of Saber Sovereigns, all true bladesmen," Xiao Chen said softly after wiping the blood off his lips.

Qing Yun flew over and nodded. "That's right. If you manage to enter, there will be a statue of you too. The Saber Sovereign Medallion has been passed down for a long time; its history goes way further back than you think. In the future, if you can go even further on the path of the Saber Dao, you might discover even more secrets of the Saber Sovereign Medallion."

"The Saber Sovereign Medallion still has other secrets?"

Qing Yun smiled and replied, "That is natural. The Saber Sovereign Medallion is an opportunity that Pan Huang left behind in the abandoned land. However, the past Saber Sovereigns never grabbed hold of this opportunity. I think rather highly of you. Unfortunately, you have to leave now. Your current strength is equal to that of an Eighth Heaven Martial Emperor. You are still quite far from a Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor."

Having no intention of leaving, Xiao Chen said, "I would like to ask, as long as I can burst forth with the strength of a Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor, can I push the gates open?"

Qing Yun nodded. "Of course. However, the gap between an Eighth Heaven Martial Emperor and a Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor is not something that can be bridged with a Profound Martial Technique. In numbers, nine reigns supreme. However, advancing from Eighth Heaven to Ninth Heaven is a hundredfold harder than advancing from Seventh Heaven to Eighth Heaven."

"In that case, it's not a problem."

Xiao Chen formed hand seals with his hands, and suddenly, his figure expanded, reaching three kilometers tall. This was the Buddhist Major Magic Skill, Dharmic World.
