Chapter 742: Eternal and Inextinguishable

After executing their strongest Martial Techniques, which they previously kept hidden, the two half-Sages looked extremely fatigued. They had exhausted all their Quintessence, placing all their hopes on these two moves.

Situ Lei panted slightly as he muttered, “This should end it. After facing Medial Grade Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques that exhausted all our Quintessence, even the strongest half-Sage would not escape unscathed.”

No matter what, Xiao Chen was just a Superior Grade Martial Monarch. No matter how demonic he was, he should not be able to escape death after two half-Sages went all in, holding nothing back.

Liu Chen had the same thoughts as well. He looked around anxiously, wanting to know how bad a state Xiao Chen was in after receiving their attacks.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, a very dazzling golden light came from the ocean of fire. After losing the protection of their Quintessence, the two felt a piercing pain when they looked at it.

A powerful explosion thundered in the ocean of fire. Horrifying shock waves formed a massive, dense cloud that soared into the sky. A deep, spiral-shaped pit one kilometer wide appeared in the ground.

After the cloud soared up and all the dust settled, Situ Lei and Liu Chen could finally see the situation inside.

A white-robed Xiao Chen stood there with his hair fluttering. His delicate face looked spirited with no signs of injury on him at all.

A strange flame diagram floated in the air in front of Xiao Chen. It flickered with a golden light as it materialized many things, containing a world within it.

“That is impossible! He is actually not injured at all!”

“What kind of strange Martial Technique is that? It even managed to block two Heaven Ranked Martial Techniques that two half-Sages executed with their full power!”

Situ Lei and Liu Chen were bug-eyed as if seeing the most inconceivable thing in the world, something that completely surpassed their understanding and knowledge.

Xiao Chen’s eyes appeared cold. He did not give the two much time to react as he gently waved his right hand.

The Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram flew to the front quickly. Yinyang, four divisions, eight trigrams, and a world were all contained within.

A Yin flame and a Yang flame chased each other in a circle, making the golden light of the Taiji Diagram increasingly dazzling. It looked like the sun, eternal and inextinguishable.

“Bang! Bang!”

Two loud sounds rang out as the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram sent the old men flying one after another. Situ Lei and Liu Chen, who did not have any Quintessence left, could not resist at all.

The old men were like kites with broken strings, wobbling in the air. Xiao Chen’s expression turned grave, and he thrust the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram down on them with a heavy palm strike.

“Pu!” Dust clouds flew up. These two half-Sages, who were once awe-inspiring and mighty, got crushed into a paste.

With a thought, the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram pressed hard to the ground slowly dissipated. Finally, two beams of light, one white and one purple, returned to Xiao Chen’s eyes.

Xiao Chen closed his eyes and stumbled forward, nearly tripping.

For the first time, he had used the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram after it reached Great Perfection. Lacking experience with it, he had expended too much Mental Energy.

If Xiao Chen could control it well, he could have reduced some of this move’s might, conserving his Mental Energy.

The cultivators of the Situ and Liu Clans had arrived some time ago, coming to five hundred meters of them. However, as Xiao Chen’s battle with the two half-Sages was too intense, they could not lend a hand.

Initially, these cultivators had no doubt that Xiao Chen would die. However, the result overturned everyone’s expectations.

Incredibly, a Superior Grade Martial Monarch killed two half-Sages. Furthermore, Xiao Chen did so in such a tyrannical manner, smashing them into a paste.

As the cultivators looked at Xiao Chen resting with his eyes closed, fear filled their hearts. No one dared to step forward.

Xiao Chen opened his eyes only after a long time. Then he gently flew over to the remains of the two half-Sages, who no longer resembled anything human.

He thought back to what happened to him over the past few days and realized that he had fought against these two strong old foxes with both his mind and body. During these battles, he had nearly died a few times.

By relying on his strong foundation and his extraordinary composure and decisiveness, Xiao Chen ended up with the last laugh.

Not only did he obtain the rare and precious thousand-year-old White Nascent Fruit, but he also raised his cultivation to Superior Grade Martial Monarch and killed two half-Sages.

After taking the spatial rings of the two half-Sages, Xiao Chen did not linger, heading for the exit of the forest, instead.

The cultivators of the two clans stared at the slowly disappearing white figure. However, no one had any intention of following him.

After the matter was over, Xiao Chen simply kept his accomplishment to himself. He had his own pride, his own way.

Three days later, the news of the two tyrants of Azure Peak City, Situ Lei and Liu Chen, dying at the hands of a white-robed bladesman spread as if it had grown wings, reaching every corner of the city.

The two clans lorded over Azure Peak City. Situ Lei’s and Liu Chen’s names had already shaken all the experts of the city.

In this midsize city, these two people had been like gods.

When people suddenly heard that these two people had fallen to a young white-robed bladesman, no one believed it; they took it for a joke.

However, whether on purpose or not, even more news leaked out from the two clans that verified everything as the truth. This confirmation shook everyone in the city.

Several of the old people sighed. The new generation had replaced the old. Unexpectedly, Situ Lei and Liu Chen died and helped make someone else famous.

All sorts of rumors circulated about Xiao Chen’s identity. Some of these rumors were so exaggerated that people found them funny.

Business was booming in the largest restaurant in Azure Peak City; people filled the entire establishment with not a single empty table in sight.

“Do you know that they’ve discovered the identity of the white-robed bladesman? It is that bladesman who challenged Bai Wuxue not long ago. That matter had spread quite far and wide.”

“Could this white-robed bladesman possibly be that person whom Bai Wuxue acknowledged?”

“It should be more or less correct. The cultivators of the two clans compared paintings of them, and they look very similar. Furthermore, they are both bladesmen and wear white robes. How could there be such a coincidence?”

“If it truly is that person, then Situ Lei’s and Liu Chen’s deaths are neither surprising nor unjust. After all, this is someone whom Bai Wuxue, one of the seven giants, acknowledged.”

The hottest topic of discussion in the restaurant was without a doubt the white-robed bladesman. The place was extraordinarily bustling.

Xiao Chen, wearing a black hooded cloak, sat at a table beside a window on the second floor. When he heard all this, he remained calm and did not take pride in it at all.

It was just killing two half-Sages about as strong as Gu Mu. Any of the seven giants would have such strength. Furthermore, they would have defeated those two with even more ease.

Xiao Chen set down his wine cup. Presently, he was focusing all his attention on a round, purple crystal coin.

This purple crystal coin in Xiao Chen’s hand had a lot of texture. It sported three mountain peaks hidden behind clouds embossed on its back while the front had the image of a person.

Xiao Chen had found a total of ten million Superior Grade Spirit Stones in Situ Lei’s and Liu Chen’s spatial rings, much less than he had expected.

These two people each ruled a clan and were not loose cultivators. Nevertheless, despite being half-Sages, they only carried about five million Superior Grade Spirit Stones each. Having such a small sum was hard to understand.

Aside from Spirit Stones, Xiao Chen’s biggest gain was in purple crystal coins like the one before him. They numbered in the hundred thousands.

These purple crystal coins were probably made from some sort of mysterious ore. No doubt they were valuable, but Xiao Chen still did not know what they were even after studying them for a few days.

In the bustling restaurant, Xiao Chen held the purple crystal coin tightly. In the end, he still asked Ao Jiao, who was in the Immortal Spirit Ring, Ao Jiao, do you know what this crystal coin is?

At the moment, Ao Jiao was expertly caring for the most valuable Spirit Tree in the Immortal Spirit Ring—the Lunar Cassia Tree. Under her care, the white Lunar Cassia sapling had already doubled in size from its original ten-meter height.

The Lunar Cassia sapling’s trunk had also thickened, now requiring two arms to encircle it. Lush leaves now flickered with spiritual light, making it look lovely.

Ao Jiao set aside what she was doing and squinted for a while. Then she smiled craftily. Naturally, I know. However, you have to toss in some Spirit Stones. As of now, the Spirit Trees in the herb garden grow too slowly by relying on just the Rank 1 Spirit Vein in the Immortal Spirit Ring.

Xiao Chen smiled bitterly and felt a headache coming. Honestly speaking, he did not care too much for the Spirit Trees in the Immortal Spirit Ring.

In reality, ordinary trees took one or two decades to mature. Spirit Trees, on the other hand, required hundreds or thousands of years.

However, Ao Jiao remained relentless in this. She kept saying that it would be useful to Xiao Chen in the future, that the earlier he started the herb garden in the Immortal Spirit Ring, the greater his advantage would be when meeting Martial Emperors of the same generation.

Xiao Chen had dumped a large portion of his Superior Grade Spirit Stones into the Immortal Spirit Ring already. This time, out of the ten million Superior Grade Spirit Stones, Ao Jiao immediately demanded three million.

Such an expenditure made Xiao Chen feel a pinch. At that point, Xiao Chen decided that no matter how Ao Jiao asked him for it, he would pay no heed to her.

However, now that Ao Jiao raised the issue again, he could not help but agree to give her another two million Spirit Stones.

Only after he agreed did Ao Jiao smile with satisfaction. This thing in your hand is an Astral Coin. It is the currency among the high-leveled cultivators of the five major races of the Kunlun Realm. Most Martial Emperors would carry out their transactions in Astral Coins.

Xiao Chen held up the purple crystal coin and asked doubtfully, Astral Coin…isn’t this redundant then, with Spirit Stones around?

Ai Jiao smiled and replied, How can it be redundant? It is not redundant even in the human race’s Tianwu Domain. I already said, this is the currency used for transactions between high-leveled cultivators. There are also many large auctions catering to Martial Sages that use Astral Coins.

Most importantly, Spirit Stones have the best effect for human cultivators. However, they are not that useful to other races.

For example, the Deity Race focuses on cultivating Mental Energy. The most important resource for them is Demonic Soul Stones. There is also Fiend Energy, which the Fiend Race primarily cultivates. The efficiency of converting Spirit Stones to Fiend Energy is far from comparable to that of Blood Soul Stones.

Astral Coins are minted from Astral Crystal Ore found in the universe. This material is necessary for forging Spirit Weapons or Secret Treasures, a rare resource that every race lacks. It is the most suitable substance for use as a common currency in the five great domains.

After this explanation, Xiao Chen finally understood the value of Astral Coins. Due to the different anatomies of the various races, although they all cultivated Martial Cultivation, the resources they required were different.

The Spirit Stones that serve as currency throughout the Tianwu Domain might not be useful for trading with Fiends or Deities. Currently, Xiao Chen urgently needed a common resource for transactions with the various races.

Hunluo Province lay at the edge of the Tianwu Domain, adjacent to the Fiend Domain. The Martial God Palace had weak control over this place. So the number of humans and Fiends remained at a certain balance in this province.
