Chapter 1480: Lunar Shadow Saber Unsheathed

The two waves of the Great Dao's might pushed back tens of thousands of the Blood Clad Sect's elites. Such a scene was spectacular.

Everyone found it incredible. They had never seen or heard of anything like it.

"How.. How can this be?!"

Can Minghuo and the rest of the Blood Clad Sect's upper echelon retreated far away. When they saw this scene, they paled and spoke in quivering voices.

As Xiao Chen's long hair fluttered, his body exuded the Great Dao's might. It was plain and simple, without any brilliant or magnificent lights. However, as he stood there, no one dared to look directly at him.

"This is too terrifying. How did he do it?"

When the cultivators who had been chased away by the Blood Clad Sect saw this scene, they were shocked and stupefied.

How did that happen?

Earlier, the killing Qi of tens of thousands of Blood Clad Sect elites was flourishing, making everyone's hearts pound heavily. How was it that Xiao Chen just shouted twice, and they crumbled and vomited blood in defeat?

The aura of a Martial Emperor could be used to pressure weaker cultivators, achieving a similar effect.

However, everyone knew that Xiao Chen's shouts were vastly different from the aforementioned aura. Firstly, auras needed to be accumulated and were effective only on significantly weaker opponents.

Secondly, Xiao Chen's aura clearly appeared to be at about Seventh Heaven Martial Emperor. How strong could his aura be?

Amid the crowd, the Cyclic Astral Palace's Chu Yang suddenly exclaimed loudly, "It's the Dao. It's Great Dao Energy!"

Chu Yang was shocked to his senses. His gaze, which was focused on Xiao Chen, filled with incredulity. That was a legendary level. Even during the peak of the Martial Epoch, few geniuses could grasp it.

After the Martial Epoch went into decline, Great Dao Energy had never appeared again, consigned to legends and myths.

However, on this day, the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen not only appeared as the Shadowless Saber Sovereign but even demonstrated the legendary Great Dao Energy.

The many outstanding talents appeared like they woke up from a dream. Records of the Dao were rare, even in ancient books.

It was even to the point where many questioned whether it truly existed or not.

"Is it really the Dao?"

If that answer was right, then everything was readily explained. The might of a Great Dao was not something ordinary people could resist.

Xiao Chen was already an existence on an entirely different level from them.

"Attack together. If we do not kill him, we are all goners!"

With tens of thousands of Blood Clad Sect elites pushed back in defeat, the Blood Clad Sect's prestige crumbled. If they failed to kill Xiao Chen, their Sect Master would definitely be enraged. At that time, things would not end well for them.

Only Ao Lang held the recipe to the Life Extending Pill, which was their lifeline.

A tinge of violence flashed in Can Minghuo's eyes. After calming his mind, he took the initiative to charge over.

Can Minghuo did not care whether Xiao Chen comprehended Great Dao Energy or not. He did not believe that he, a Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor, could not deal with Xiao Chen, who appeared to be merely a Seventh Heaven Martial Emperor.

Furthermore, the three Dragon Kings and the Blood Clad Sect's Law Enforcers were by Can Minghuo's side, all of them Sovereign Martial Emperors.

"Attack together!"

A strong wind blew. Struggling against the might of the Great Dao, Can Minghuo and the other eleven Sovereign Martial Emperors charged towards Xiao Chen while radiating an overwhelming killing Qi.

Even in this golden age, Sovereign Martial Emperors were still the peak experts.

A Sovereign Martial Emperor would be able to face a newly created Rank 9 sect alone. Now, Twelve Sovereign Martial Emperors, led by Can Minghuo, a Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor, soared into the air at the same time.

Their combined auras stirred up winds and clouds. It was like a patch of the sky pressing down on Xiao Chen.

"Whoosh!"

The sky suddenly turned dark, plunging the ruined plaza into pitch darkness. When one stretched their hand out, they could not see their fingers. This was due to the twelve Sovereign Martial Emperors pressing over simultaneously, covering even the sky.

"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"

When the surrounding cultivators saw this formation, they turned pale in fright as they moved back hastily.

This was the first time in the Heavenly Starry Ocean when so many Sovereign Martial Emperors fought together during the golden age.

With twelve Sovereign Martial Emperors, it would be easy to imagine how staggering the destructive power would be.

Xiao Chen's face sank. To shield the Dragon's Gate's people behind him, he enveloped everyone in his Dao Might.

The huge battle ignited immediately. The Eastern Sea Dragon King was the first to arrive. As his fist descended, it was like the claw of an enormous dragon, tearing out bloody marks in space.

"Blood Dragon Claw!"

This was the Eastern Sea Dragon King's signature Martial Technique. Hence, he was relatively confident in his attack. He believed that even if it could not defeat Xiao Chen, it would push him back.

As long as Xiao Chen moved back a step, the Eastern Sea Dragon King would be able to recapture the Dragon's Gate's Elders. Then, he would win without even a fight.

Xiao Chen's expression remained calm. He slashed his palm through the air, shooting out many saber lights from it.

Then, he ferociously grabbed all the saber lights and merged the Great Dao Energy of the Saber Dao with Primordial Energy.

Finally, he executed Distant Legend.

The light of Distant Legend illuminated this pitch-black space. When palm and fist clashed, the Eastern Sea Dragon King's fist shattered, and he vomited a mouthful of blood as he went flying back like a sandbag.

The Eastern Sea Dragon King was like an insignificant hunting dog crashing into the huge and sturdy body of an elephant and rebounding with great force.

Xiao Chen was like a massive mountain, firmly protecting the Dragon's Gate's people behind him.

His internal organs churned, but he forcefully suppressed the upheaval. Now, he had only seven hundred strands of Primordial Energy. Had he still had one thousand strands, with the support of Great Dao Energy, he would not have gotten injured at all.

At this moment, Xiao Chen had no time to recover from his injuries. The twelve Sovereign Martial Emperors attacked one after another, showing no intention of stopping.

"Attacking in turns?"

"To think that twelve Sovereign Martial Emperors actually resorted to attacking in turns to deal with Xiao Chen!"

This scene truly stunned everyone. To deal with just one Azure Dragon King, the Blood Clad Sect used such a method, completely abandoning the dignity of Sovereign Martial Emperors.

"This is not good. If this continues, Xiao Chen will tire out and die sooner or later."

"That's right. He received all these Sovereign Martial Emperors' peak strikes but did not even move a step back. He must be doing this to protect the Dragon's Gate's Elders behind him. This Xiao Chen is rather silly."

By clashing like this, one would receive significant damage while dealing great damage to the enemy. After all, even a Prime would have to consider carefully before taking on the peak strike of a Sovereign Martial Emperor.

Xiao Chen used the Great Dao Energy to support himself as he executed the Myriad Heaven Divine Fist, forcibly receiving the peak strikes of twelve Sovereign Martial Emperors.

Rumbling resounded endlessly. Cracks appeared in the city below with each clash, causing it to tremble.

After seven such sounds, the cultivators who had already retreated fifty kilometers away were horrified to discover that the cracks now extended to their feet.

Hence, these cultivators quickly retreated all the way to the city walls before stopping.

Xiao Chen, who stood in front of the Dragon's Gate's Elders, was like an impregnable wall. Be it lightning, strong winds, or fire, he did not move back even half a step.

After Xiao Chen received the peak strikes of eleven Sovereign Martial Emperors, everyone saw his figure wobble slightly, shocking them deeply.

They could not help feeling insignificant before this figure.

"You truly live up to your reputation as the Azure Dragon King, deeply loyal to your friends. Even in such a state, you still have not moved back. However, you can die now!"

When Can Minghuo, the last to attack, saw the pale Xiao Chen leaking some blood from the mouth, he smiled coldly and swung his sword down.

Can Minghuo had been storing up power from his Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor cultivation, waiting for this moment.

The tip of his sword lit up like the flames of a star in the darkness. Following that, it exploded, burning the universe.

"Flaming Supernova!"

This stunning sword strike seemed to set the entire universe on fire, attracting everyone's attention.

The Ninth Heaven Martial Emperor Can Minghuo was much stronger than the earlier eleven Sovereign Martial Emperors.

"Oh no! Xiao Chen is going to be defeated!"

Seeing that Xiao Chen's Dao Might had already weakened significantly, the crowd could not help crying out.

This peak sword strike moved extremely fast. In the next instant, after the fire started burning, the sword strike arrived before Xiao Chen, incredibly fast.

"Dang!"

A melodious tone resounded, and a berserk flame swept out in a wave.

This formed many horrifying flaming tornadoes. No one could see what had happened inside.

Only the Dragon's Gate's people, who were in the center of the flame, could see clearly. It was the Lunar Shadow Saber.

In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen, whose hair was scattered, brandished his saber with his left hand, holding it horizontal. He used the scabbard to block this sword strike.

Doing so aggravated his internal injuries, making him vomit a mouthful of blood on the scabbard.

historical

"Ao Jiao, if you still are not going to unsheathe, when will you?!"

As Xiao Chen's hair fluttered wildly in the wind, he shouted and pulled hard on the handle with his right hand.
