As Yun Tianyu stood in the palace, he gave Xiao Chen and the white-clad person a profound look. Seeing that Xiao Jue and the Frost Moon Palace’s elder had both slowly sunk into passivity and could not beat them, he left without delay.

One hour later, Xiao Chen executed Subduing Dragon Profound Slash and finally finished off Xiao Jue, whose state of mind had received severe damage from the destruction of his zither. Then, he retrieved the old man’s spatial ring.

The passionate war tune stopped here.

Xiao Chen slowly landed on the ground. He had already cast aside his disguise, having completely absorbed the Medicinal Energy of the Primal Essence Nature Pill and grasped his saber soul. Now, even if he fought against the Demonic Brilliant Two Elders, he would be able to hold his own.

There was also a pure Thunder Origin in the Universe Ring. Xiao Chen hesitated over whether to use this opportunity to swallow it up and break through the bottleneck of Medial Grade Martial Sage and enter the ranks of Superior Grade Martial Sage.

On the other side, the battle of the white-clad person approached its conclusion as well.

This expert of the Frost Moon Palace was much more capable than Xiao Jue, who knew only the Demonic Lust Tune and fell to Xiao Chen because his cultivation was just a facade.

When the Frost Moon Palace elder saw that he could not defeat the white-clad person, he used a killing move to force the white-clad person back and quickly retreated, not giving the white-clad person any opportunity to drag things out.

Seeing the old man flee far away, the white-clad person appeared somewhat disappointed. If he had exhausted some more of the old man’s Law Energy, he would have been able to detain the old man.

Just thinking of the wealth of a great grandmaster-level Martial Sage excited him.

Unfortunately, getting one to yield was quite tricky, a problem he could not solve right away. Moreover, Xiao Chen unexpectedly managed to defeat Xiao Jue so quickly, inspiring timidity in the Frost Moon Palace elder and causing him to leave early.

The white-robed person sheathed his saber, and the scarlet light in his eyes faded away. He looked at Xiao Chen, who was walking over, and revealed a sinister smile. “You’ve finally bared your true face? It must have been very amusing to use my name over the past few days.”

The person before Xiao Chen was precisely the Northern Sea Alliance’s Bloody Young Master himself!

Since the other party already said it out loud, Xiao Chen stopped hiding it. The identity of the Bloody Young Master was already useless to him at this point. He smiled faintly and said, “It’s the same thing for you. Using this Xiao’s name, Brother Ye seems to have gained a great harvest in the past few days.”

“Brother Ye, that old man from the Heavenly Music Sect is telling the truth? You are the real Xiao Chen!”

When Xing Qingyun and the old man landed on the ground, Xing Qingyun felt his legs go soft and could not stand stably.

Initially, when Xing Qingyun heard what the Heavenly Music Sect’s Xiao Jue said, he had planned to flee immediately. However, when he thought about Xiao Chen’s strength, he knew that he would not be able to outrun Xiao Chen. So he clung to his only hope and forced himself to land on the ground.

Who knew, the moment Xing Qingyun landed, he heard what the white-clad person said, which extinguished the final hope in his heart. It turned out that the so-called Xiao Chen had always been beside him.

Xing Qingyun thought about how he kept shouting about killing Xiao Chen and spreading his fame. His whole body could not help but tremble. He smiled and stammered, “That…urm…Brother Xiao, I…”

Xiao Chen patted Xing Qingyun’s shoulder and smiled. “Alliance Chief, don’t panic. You are the Xing Qingyun who will kill Xiao Chen and spread your name everywhere.”

Xing Qingyun smiled awkwardly and said, “That was just a joke. Just a joke. Brother Xiao, don’t take it for real.”

“Rumble…!”

Just at this moment, intense rumbling sounds came from the Immortal sect Remnant less than five kilometers away, followed by ethereal divine music.

A Deities’ Nation descended from the distant sky, giving off a bright golden light. Even the people five kilometers away found this light piercing.

“Di Wuque!”

When the white-robed Ye Chen saw this scene, he exclaimed this name, a competitive expression on his face.

Lord Jiu licked his lips and said, “He probably broke a restriction somewhere in the Immortal sect Remnant. As long as it is a location with natural treasures, there will definitely be restrictions.”

“That is normal. If there is no restriction, after several tens of thousands of years, the natural treasures would have rotted away already,” the white-clad person said calmly.

A cold moon hung high above a frosty palace. Another icy palace appeared beside the Deities’ Nation. An azure-clad man stood on this palace, looking down from above.

Three thousand figures charged out of the palace, materializing three thousand killing moves. All the killing moves were different. However, when the light of the cold moon shone on them, it created a resonance that united them.

Under the cold moon, the azure-clad man on the palace looked emotionless. With one wave of his hand, three thousand killing moves charged through the air. A strong aura spread out.

Even though the four were five kilometers away, cracks extended to their feet, and the aura’s might remained undiminished.

“That is the Frost Moon Palace’s proud son of heaven, Xiao Qinghan. His strength surpasses that of the older-generation experts. He is an outstanding talent of the Primal Chaos Domain,” Xing Qingyun said with a trembling voice. Given that he was acknowledged as the person who had killed a Frost Moon Palace inner sect Elder, that man might very well be the one who would take his life.

“Dong! Dong! Dong!”

Suddenly, grand and imposing bell chimes rang out. Rings of blue music turned solid and propagated through the air like ripples.

Even five kilometers away, the four found their eardrums shaking and their hearts pounding.

Without needing anyone to say it, this person was the Heavenly Music Sect’s Xia Dongyang, someone who was Xiao Qinghan’s equal among the younger generation of the Primal Chaos Domain.

Xiao Chen could even make out seven beams of starlight pouring down, forming a complete constellation and charging at a restriction below.

Lord Jiu’s eyes lit up with fervor as he said, “The restriction that these people are trying to break through definitely has valuable treasures. Otherwise, there would not be such a big commotion.”

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow and smiled. “Want to go and check it out together?”

The old man quickly replied in a rush, “Great, this Lord Jiu wanted to enter long ago. However, I keep getting chased out.”

Xing Qingyun hesitated for quite a while before steeling himself and declaring that he would go along to take a look. This time, he would really play out of his league by following Xiao Chen.

All Xing Qingyun could do now was look for a fortuitous encounter that would raise his strength substantially and secure more chances for him to protect his life.

Ye Chen looked at Xiao Chen. In the end, he still had to see what Xiao Chen’s opinion was. He was not very confident in going alone.

Xiao Chen thought for a while before saying, “No, the older-generation experts of the Frost Moon Palace and the Heavenly Music Palace are there. Di Wuque’s thirteen Keepers of Light would be nearby as well. We would not stand much of a chance.”

Ye Chen revealed a disappointed expression. He smiled and said, “White Robed King Xiao Chen, it turns out that this is all the courage you have. Very well, then. In that case, I will go alone.”

After seeing Ye Chen turn into a scarlet beam of light, Xiao Chen shook his head. He turned around and said to Xing Qingyun, “After arriving at the Immortal sect Remnant, it would be hard for me to protect even myself. I also advise that you not enter. Here is the Hundred Change Tortoise Spirit Shield. I’m giving it to you to protect yourself. It can guarantee your safe passage out of the Heavenly Ruin Wasteland.”

After Xing Qingyun took the Hundred Change Tortoise Spirit Shield, his eyes immediately lit up. This was a bona fide King Grade Secret Treasure, and yet Xiao Chen just gave it away.

“Go on. Stop dawdling. In the future, if you find that you are unable to continue on here, you can come to the Supreme Sky Sect to look for me.”

Xing Qingyun laughed dryly for a bit before putting away the Hundred Change Tortoise Spirit Shield. Then he said with heroic bravado, “I’m going off, then. Although I did not kill Xiao Chen, I slaughtered a Frost Moon Palace inner sect Elder and was placed on their killing list. This itself should be able to spread my name throughout the Primal Chaos Domain.”

When Lord Jiu saw Xiao Chen looking at him, he said quickly, “Little Brother, don’t worry. I’ll follow you. I definitely can protect myself. I will not be a burden to you. If something seems wrong, I will leave immediately.”

Xiao Chen felt speechless. What is this fellow thinking? “If something seems wrong, I will leave immediately.” In that case, why follow me?

“You can follow me to gain some benefits, but you have to follow my orders. If you do what you did earlier, running faster than a mouse the moment I start fighting, I will be the first person to go after you.”

The old man immediately showed a bitter expression and argued, “But this Lord Jiu is really not good at fighting. Furthermore, this Lord Jiu is originally a mouse in the first place.”

Xiao Chen smiled as he scolded the old man, “Don’t worry, I won’t send you to die. Given your nose for danger, the restrictions on the outside should not be a problem for you. We will take all the treasures on the outside first before making any further decision.”

Broken palaces covered the grayish wasteland. Corpses that no longer resembled humans littered the ground. The stink of blood permeated the turbid air. This was the Immortal sect Remnant that Xiao Chen saw.

The ground was littered with the corpses of cultivators killed by the restrictions. The heavy stench of their blood wafted through the place together with the turbid air.

Restrictions littered the place. Both the ground and air might contain hidden restrictions, which could take the lives of cultivators, anywhere.

Without King Grade Secret Treasures to protect them, most cultivators were walking carefully on the ground.

Of course, some bold experts did not care about the restrictions in the periphery, forcefully crushing and tearing through all the restrictions in their way.

Xiao Chen saw four or five such characters. Most of them were great grandmaster-level Martial Sages of the same level as the Supreme Sky Sect’s Han Qinghe, a level that was unrivaled among grandmaster-level Martial Sages.

Xiao Chen was still not a match for such characters. However, he would be able to break away easily.

The restrictions in the periphery simply could not stop these people. The treasures that could be found here did not delay them, either. They quickly headed for the inner area, where there were still several intact palaces.

There were even nine floating palaces at the very top of the mountain in the middle. The multicolored lights came from this place, attracting people over.

“Hehe! This Lord Jiu is right, right? There is definitely a Profound Copper mine below this place,” the old man said in a satisfied tone as he popped out of a hole in the ground.

Relying on the old man’s nose for danger, the two came to no harm at all from the restrictions in the periphery. The old man also noticed the special environment around them right away.

Xiao Chen broke the restriction, and the old man dug into the ground. Without exception, there would always be some gains.

In merely half a day, Xiao Chen already collected three Earth Dragon Fruits, a damaged Peak Spirit Vein, and more than five tons of Heavenly Gold Rock and other divine materials.

Earlier, the old man had seen several unremarkable small black flowers on a nearby crack and immediately declared that there was definitely a Profound Copper mine below.

Xiao Chen looked at the neat hole and praised the old man, “This hole is really well made. It is wide, bright, firm, and sturdy.”

The old man narrowed his eyes and smiled in satisfaction. “This Lord Jiu has three great abilities. I have strong perception, I dig holes fast, and my eyes are sharp.”

Indeed, the old man was a mouse.

“The Profound Copper mine inside stretches out for one kilometer. Excluding the impurities, there is at least ten tons of pure Profound Copper.” Lord Jiu excitedly described the situation inside.

Profound Copper was a divine material similar to Black Patterned Gold. All one needed to do was add some to a Secret Treasure when refining it, and its quality would be very much improved. There was a great difference between Secret Treasures that used divine materials and Secret Treasures that did not.

Such divine materials were hard to find. At any given moment, they could sell for a high price, even to the point where they could serve as currency.

Ten tons of Profound Copper was a large sum. However, it was a far cry from the five hundred tons of divine material that the first layer of the Azure Dragon Body Nourishing Art needed. Xiao Chen was a long way from reaching this target.

With a thought, the trace of Dragon Energy, which the Azure Dragon Body Nourishing Art nurtured, quickly swam about in his body, producing thunderous sounds that rumbled without end.
