Chapter 1442 (Raw 1428): Fleeing

The Black Tortoise Holy Master found the White Tiger Holy Master seated cross-legged with his eyes closed in a deep pit.

The White Tiger Holy Master had a hole in his chest from which blood flowed out continuously. Even now, the bleeding had not stopped. His complexion was pale, and his entire body gave off a burnt smell. Clearly, he was significantly injured.

"Brother White Tiger, how can you be so severely injured?" the Black Tortoise Holy Master asked in confusion with a frown.

A genuine Holy Master injured by a junior—this was simply somewhat too incredible.

The White Tiger Holy Master slowly opened his eyes and replied, "Ten spots of Saber Energy and one Sharp Spirit Finger. My heart was instantly shattered. Do you think that is easy to handle?"

"Saber Energy? Sharp Spirit Finger?"

The Black Tortoise Holy Master was greatly startled. "That's impossible. This Shadowless Saber Sovereign actually comprehended Saber Energy and the Sharp Spirit Finger. In the entire world, there are only two people who know the Sharp Spirit Finger. One is the Flame Rock Sovereign, and the other is the Azure Dragon King."

After thinking for a while, the Black Tortoise Holy Master thought of something very bold and startling.

"Could it be that this Shadowless Saber Sovereign is the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen?!"

The White Tiger Holy Master shook his head and said, "It is impossible for him to be the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen. That fellow jumped off his Emperor's Road five years ago and suffered the rebound of the Great Tribulation of wind and fire. It was already pretty good for him to keep his life. How could he rise up again? Furthermore, if he really was the Azure Dragon King, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign would not invite him to join the Deity Dao Union."

"Then, he is…?"

The White Tiger Holy Master muttered, "I can only say that he is someone who suddenly rose up in this golden age. Otherwise, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign would not look at him in such a light."

The two did not know that even the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign could not figure out the Shadowless Saber Sovereign. If they told the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign about the Shadowless Saber Sovereign knowing the Sharp Spirit Finger, even if the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign did not make this guess, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign would be suspicious.

However, the two thought that the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign found nothing wrong with the Shadowless Saber Sovereign, so they did not worry about it.

"Why are you here? How come you are not chasing after the Shadowless Saber Sovereign?" The White Tiger Holy Master suddenly recalled their task and asked, "Could it be that the Shadowless Saber Sovereign managed to flee?!"

The Black Tortoise Holy Master shook his head and explained, "An Iron Demon delayed us. However, the Vermilion Bird Holy Master already gave chase. With him making a move, as long as the Shadowless Saber Sovereign is in the Tianwu Domain, he will not be able to flee."

Of the three Holy Masters, the Vermilion Bird Holy Master was the strongest. If he used his full power, there was really nothing to worry about.

---

Up in the sky, the Vermilion Bird Holy Master closed his eyes, and fiery clouds churned behind him, spreading for tens of thousands of kilometers. After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and waved his right hand.

"Whoosh!"

The fiery clouds surged like waves and transformed into tens of thousands of fire birds flying out in all directions, shooting forward like arrows.

At close inspection, every fire bird looked like a miniature Vermilion Bird. They moved extraordinarily fast. More importantly, they covered the sky in all directions, searching everywhere.

When Xiao Chen, who just flew out of the Savage Battlefield, suddenly saw the small Vermilion Birds fly by him, his expression immediately changed.

He had managed to escape the six Supreme Elders after much difficulty but was discovered by the Vermilion Bird Holy Master.

Right now, Xiao Chen already used his Saber Energy and the Sharp Spirit Finger. He would have a devil of a time escaping a Holy Master just by relying on the Flawless Saber Technique.

Leave quickly. I'll help you block the three Holy Masters. Brat, you really hid well, making me worry. Live on well. I will help you hide the identity of the Shadowless Saber Sovereign.

Suddenly, a voice rang out in Xiao Chen's mind. He rejoiced, knowing that he was saved.

That was right. The one who came was the Supreme Sky Sect's Ying Zongtian!

However, Ying Zongtian did not appear in front of Xiao Chen, only sending a voice projection. On further thought, that was to avoid suspicions by others.

---

Inside the Savage Battlefield, the Vermilion Bird Holy Master smiled faintly and scattered the thick, fiery clouds with a wave.

"Let's see where you can flee to."

The Vermilion Bird Holy Master formed hand seals with his hands and radiated a boundless holy light. Then, his entire body slowly took fire. When he finished the hand seals, his body turned into an enormous Vermilion Bird with a wingspan of three kilometers. When it spread its wings, it covered the sky and sun.

"Whoosh!"

The gigantic wings flapped furiously, and the Vermilion Bird instantly flew out of the Savage Battlefield, moving incredibly fast. Everywhere it passed, it left behind a long trail of fire covering the sky.

"Dang!"

Even though the enormous Vermilion Bird appeared like it was teleporting, when it rapidly raised its speed again, it crashed into an invisible wall. The sky trembled intensely.

Countless clumps of fire fell from the Vermilion Bird's body, a rain of fire pouring to the ground.

"Whoosh!" The fire bird resumed its true form. The Vermilion Bird Holy Master looked pale as he said in an extremely angry tone, "Ying Zongtian, don't obstruct me from performing my duties!"

A light flashed, and Ying Zongtian himself appeared. He showed no expression as he said coldly, "Vermilion Bird Holy Master, your wanting to kill the Shadowless Saber Sovereign is your problem. I do not care about it. However, do not do it in my Tianwu Domain. This Tianwu Domain belongs to the Martial God Palace, not your Deity Dao Union."

"Give me a reason. Otherwise, the Deity Dao Union will never let this rest!" the Vermilion Bird Holy Master said through gritted teeth.

Ying Zongtian laughed loudly and retorted, "I never need a reason for doing things. Still not leaving? That's fine as well. I have not fought with you in five years, and my hands are getting itchy."

With Ying Zongtian looking like he was about to attack, the Vermilion Bird Holy Master quickly retreated. The three Holy Masters only barely reached a draw with Ying Zongtian when working together.

The Vermilion Bird Holy Master did not dare to fight against Ying Zongtian one on one.

"It is already too late for you to leave!" Ying Zongtian smiled coldly and gave chase, determined to give the three Holy Masters a thrashing.

Doing so would also shift the Deity Dao Union's attention from the Shadowless Saber Sovereign to himself.

Xiao Chen, who fortunately managed to leave, still could not figure out why that Iron Demon would come and help him.

If not for the Iron Demon's sudden appearance, Xiao Chen would not have succeeded in leaving the Savage Battlefield safely like he was now.

"Could it be that the opportunity that the Iron Demon mentioned was that mysterious lake?"

After thinking about it, he concluded that this was the only possible reason. However, now was not the time to dwell on this. He should leave the Tianwu Domain first. As long as he remained in the Tianwu Domain, he would not feel safe.

The Cycle Throne took on the form of a war chariot again and carried Xiao Chen forward.

Inside the war chariot, Xiao Chen reflected on the earlier battle, feeling a heavy pressure. When facing a Holy Master, he was powerless. He could only use means that required him to risk his life before luckily fleeing.

If he faced the White Tiger Holy Master again, if the other party was determined, he would not be able to escape, much less injure the other party.

Thinking about it reinforced his belief that he lacked a trump card, one that could pose a threat to a Holy Master or even Primes. Originally, Dharmic World was a pretty good trump card. However, using it would end up exposing his identity.

Using the Sharp Spirit Finger was already a huge risk. He wondered whether he managed to keep the other party in the dark.

Xiao Chen needed a new trump card. The Holy Masters were not ordinary Ninth Heaven Martial Emperors. They were peak existences among Ninth Heaven Martial Emperors, only a hair's breadth away from Prime.

They could be termed as half-step Primes, major characters who were already at the peak of the Kunlun Realm. The only ones who could overcome them were the few Primes.

How could it be easy to find a trump card that posed a threat to a Holy Master?
