Chapter 1034: Golden Lotus Sprouting

"Let's go!"

The three no longer dared to remain. They executed the Blood Demon's secret technique—Blood Shadow Evasion—turning into long strands of scarlet light and fleeing into the distance.

Xiao Chen did not give chase. Right now, he was not in very good condition. Earlier, he spent a lot of effort to break the Sky Dome Dragon Formation and even suffered some injuries that he had not treated yet.

Although he appeared to have easily defeated the Young Master Xue who had merged with his servants in the huge battle earlier, in reality, he suffered immense impacts on his physical body.

If Young Master Xue had persisted earlier, Xiao Chen, who countered with slowness, might not have been able to maintain the Taiji force field for much longer.

This battle gave Xiao Chen a clearer and well-rounded understanding of his current strength.

Xiao Chen coldly glared at Qin Hu and the other two old men. Then, he instructed, "Let Old Yun out and you may leave. However, you have to leave behind the Martial Sages you brought here."

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

Seeing that Xiao Chen could defeat the Young Master Xue who could give off Emperor's Might, the three became even more fearful and respectful, not daring to disobey his instructions.

After getting far away from Xiao Chen, the three showed bitter expressions, clearly extremely conflicted. Bai Yu sighed and said, "What should we do? Not only did we fail in the mission that the Holy Masters gave us, but we even lost the Battle Armor."

Qin Hu felt frustrated and snorted coldly. "What else can we do? This old man was not willing to accept this mission in the first place. They simply sent whoever is capable."

"Right. Back then, we already knew that the Azure Dragon King is ridiculously strong. Furthermore, Martial Emperors cannot come down to the Sky Dome Realm. No one was willing to come, so they sent us. Clearly, they were just using us to test Xiao Chen's strength."

Qin Hu glanced at Xiao Chen's direction and said indifferently, "We should not be the ones to worry about this. There will naturally be someone to deal with him when he returns to the Kunlun Realm. Now, we just need to pretend to submit and help deal with the aftermath. After that, we should quickly leave this darn place. This old man is not willing to remain here any longer than I need to."

---

Half a day later, after the aftermath was more or less dealt with, Xiao Chen saw Old Yun once again in a simple courtyard.

"Many thanks to the Azure Dragon King for upholding justice. Otherwise, this old man would be locked up until goodness knows when." Old Yun gave thanks while kneeling.

Xiao Chen quickly got up and helped Old Yun to his feet. "Old Yun, you are too polite. Originally, I was planning to thank you properly for giving me that map. Furthermore, I heard that you were not willing to follow their orders to frame me this time, which resulted in this situation. I should be the one thanking you."

After some thought, Xiao Chen took out the last Longevity Fruit and said, "Please take this Longevity Fruit as my thanks."

Old Yun quickly rejected, "I've already used this Longevity Fruit once. There is no point in me taking this. Azure Dragon King, keep this for yourself."

Xiao Chen understood. The Longevity Tree was in the Sky Dome Immortal Realm. How could the other party not have taken it?

"In that case, let me give you a Sage Grade Medicinal Pill. As long as the injury is not a fatal wound, you will be able to recover quickly with it."

There were only ten Sage Grade Medicinal Pills in the Thunder Emperor's inheritance. However, Xiao Chen owed OId Yun a debt of gratitude. There was no need for him to feel any reluctance over this.

At Old Yun's embarrassed countenance, Xiao Chen smiled and added, "I have a half-step Golden Body. This Sage Grade Medicinal Pill is not very useful to me. Just keep it."

With this, Old Yun reluctantly accepted the Medicinal Pill and gave his thanks.

After that, the two chatted about the current situation. Now that Qin Hu, Bai Yu, and the white-haired old man were already gone, leaving the one thousand Martial Sages behind, as long as they repaired the Sky Dome Palace's buildings, they could still activate the Sky Dome Formation.

The Sky Dome Palace could still protect itself.

However, that Yao Manlan was a disaster waiting to happen. No one could interrogate her while she was imprisoned. No one dared to look her in the eyes. Even after blindfolding themselves, her voice could still charm them. She was a demon through and through.

Furthermore, this time, there was a Young Master Xue coming to save her. Clearly, she possessed a high status in the Demonic World or had a major character supporting her.

The Sky Dome Palace could not interrogate her or kill her. Furthermore, she attracted strong enemies, a great disaster for the Sky Dome Palace.

After some thought, Xiao Chen said, "In that case, hand her to me. I want to see which Demon dares to come and ask for her release while I'm in the Sky Dome Realm."

Old Yun revealed a hint of joy on his face and said, "That would be for the best. We cannot deal with this demon girl at all. She is just a headache for us."

Xiao Chen left behind a messaging talisman. "While I'm in the Sky Dome Realm, if Old Yun runs into any trouble, you can use this messaging talisman to find me. Please bring me to the jail now."

Inside the jail, Xiao Chen saw Yao Manlan, whose arms and legs were chained.

Despite being in such a sorry state, the Eros Demon did not look any less charming. She looked very pitiful, inspiring an urge to care for her.

"Azure Dragon King, be careful when you enter. Several people already fell for this demon girl's Dao." The one who led the way for Xiao Chen was a female. No man in the entire jail dared to face Yao Manlan.

When Yao Manlan saw Xiao Chen coming, she appeared excited. She stood up and wanted to throw herself over, causing the chains to rattle.

As Yao Manlan wished, Xiao Chen flicked his finger and sent out a few strands of saber Qi, breaking the chains on her body—which left her body moving forward with a flash.

"Plop!" Yao Manlan, who used too much force, fell to the ground.

She cried out in pain, collapsed on the ground. She was something stunned that her chains were actually gone. However, she became even more horrified instead. She got up and took a few steps back. Then, she looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "What are you planning to do?"

Before coming to the Sky Dome Realm, men were simply playthings in her eyes. This was the same for the Demonic World's outstanding talents; they were just more interesting toys.

However, after meeting Xiao Chen, this man became Yao Manlan's nightmare. She had never feared a person like this before.

At this moment, Yao Manlan's clothes were messy, and her hair was disheveled. She looked like a frail, fearful girl panicking.

This was interesting. Someone ignorant of the situation would think that Xiao Chen was bullying her.

"This is amusing. Tell me: what do you think I want to do?" Xiao Chen smiled indifferently.

Yao Manlan continued to retreat backward until her back was against the wall. Only when there was nowhere else to retreat did she say, "You cannot touch me. Otherwise, after you leave the Sky Dome Realm, no one will be able to save you."

She really thinks that I want to touch her. Xiao Chen could not help laughing. Due to his past experiences, he had a good impression of Eros Demons. Among the Demons, the race that he was the least willing to kill was the Eros Demons.

However, this Yao Manlan looked very pretty but possessed a wicked heart. It was hard for him to like her.

"Speaking of which, I have a question. Among the Eros Demons, do you know one called Leng Yue?" Xiao Chen asked.

Leng Yue?

The moment Xiao Chen asked, he shocked Yao Manlan, causing her expression to change drastically. Then, she looked at Xiao Chen and replied, "I do not know her. I've never heard of this name."

Eros Demons were normally good at hiding their thoughts. However, when she heard Leng Yue's name, her expression changed that much. Could Leng Yue be a major character in the Demonic Worlds?

Never mind. No matter how major Leng Yue is, she has no relation to me. She might even have forgotten me already.

She might even have forgotten the matters of the past. Why would she remember me?

"Since you don't know her, then never mind. Tidy yourself up and leave this place with me."

Xiao Chen spoke indifferently before walking away, an action that Yao Manlan did not dare imagine he would do.

Earlier, she thought that with her change in expression, Xiao Chen would continue to ask her about it. Who knew, Xiao Chen let her off so easily.

Could it be that this fellow has a history with Master?

When Yao Manlan did not move, Xiao Chen looked over his shoulder and asked, "Still not leaving? Do you want to put on the chains and remain here?"

Reacting, Yao Manlan asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"This place cannot hold you. So, I'm bringing you to Qingyun Peak, and I'll personally watch over you. Never mind, I'll do it myself."

Upon seeing Yao Manlan somewhat stupefied, Xiao Chen did not want to waste any more time. He grabbed her and left. After that, he threw her onto the flood dragon war chariot and flew to Qingyun Peak.

What Xiao Chen did not know was that the moment he left, a figure hiding in the darkness at the Sky Dome Palace noticed him.

"This is problematic. The Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen is personally guarding her. I have to go and report this to Demon Monarch Leng Yue."

---

After bringing Yao Manlan back to Qingyun Peak, Xiao Chen personally questioned her, but she refused to say anything.

Xiao Chen was not good at interrogating others in the first place. Furthermore, he felt gratitude for what the Eros Demon Leng Yue did for him in the past. So, he did not use any unreasonable methods on Yao Manlan.

Since Yao Manlan was not willing to say anything, Xiao Chen let her be. As long as she did not cause any trouble, it was fine.

Xiao Chen arranged a wooden hut for her in Qingyun Peak. However, he did not send anyone to keep watch over her, only getting some female disciples to bring food over occasionally.

He did not fear Yao Manlan running away. If she left Qingyun Peak by one kilometer, he would be able to catch up to her instantly.

In the remaining free time, he practiced the Major Magic Skill Dharmic World in the uninhabited back mountains. In order to use Dharmic World, he needed a Dharmic Incarnation first before he could establish the world.

One needed to use Magic Energy to condense a Dharmic Incarnation that reflected one's heart. At the same time, one needed to absorb light from the sun and the moon, gathering them in the mind—an extremely complicated process.

"According to the Maheśvara Buddha's information, everyone's Dharmic Incarnation is hidden in the depths of their heart. They are all different, a reflection of one's inner heart. I wonder what my Dharmic Incarnation will be like?"

At the summit of a desolate mountain, Xiao Chen sat cross-legged and closed his eyes, entering silent cultivation.

When the morning sun rose and shone its light on Xiao Chen, making him appear golden, it felt very warm and comfortable. He circulated his energy according to Dharmic World and slowly absorbed the sunlight into his sea of consciousness.

When the sun set and the moon rose, the fiery golden light on Xiao Chen's body disappeared, replaced by a calm and peaceful moonlight. Likewise, he absorbed this into his sea of consciousness as well.

The sun and the moon rose and set. Xiao Chen continued this cycle for many days. After one month, the wondrous sight of sunlight and moonlight appeared in the depths of his sea of consciousness.

Where the sunlight and moonlight met, Yin and Yang mixed, giving birth to a golden lotus.

Of course, this golden lotus was not Xiao Chen's Dharmic Incarnation. It was just that because he used the Buddhist's method to form his Dharmic Incarnation, his Dharmic Incarnation would be born from a golden lotus. If he used the Daoist's method, his Dharmic Incarnation would be born from a purple lotus. These were just different routes to the same destination; there was not much difference.

The tiny golden lotus just sprouted and urgently needed Magic Energy to nourish it. Xiao Chen was not stingy with it, slowly gathering his Magic Energy over. He could clearly feel the golden lotus's joy and satisfaction.

The splendor of both the sun and the moon, the birth of a golden lotus!

The nourishment with Magic Energy needed persistence and attentiveness. One could not rush it and make the golden lotus grow too quickly. One could not go too slow, either; that would starve the golden lotus to death.

Condensing a Dharmic Incarnation required patience. Although it was complicated, as long as there was no interruption, it would definitely be successful.

The lotus flower bud grew increasingly robust, covered in layers of lotus leaves.

When the lotus bloomed, Xiao Chen's Dharmic Incarnation would appear. From then on, it would be in the depths of his sea of consciousness, protecting that place like a guardian spirit.

Time passed day by day. Just when Xiao Chen's Magic Energy was about to be completely drained, the light of the golden lotus became extremely resplendent.
