Chapter 1531 (Raw 1513): Sudden Change in the Sky Dome Realm

“Xiao Chen, do you know the Treasure Master’s true identity?” the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign asked, voicing the question that the other Primes shared . If not for Xiao Chen figuring it out, why would he raise this topic for no reason and make everyone apprehensive?

Sharp gazes stared at Xiao Chen, surprising him somewhat . However, Xiao Chen was really unwilling to answer this question now .

“I’ll tell you later . I’m not entirely sure of it yet . ”

“Boom!”

Just as everyone was about to pursue the question, an overwhelming Demonic Qi suddenly appeared in the distance . It was so strong that Ying Zongtian and the other Primes could feel it even though they were already at the edge of the Kunlun Continent .

When they turned their heads to look, they saw clumps of demonic clouds spreading through the sky above where Heavenly Star Island used to be .

Countless iridescent black lights flickered endlessly, looking very eye-catching in the boundless sea—the army of Demonic World cultivators being transported over in large groups .

The place turned dark, a single glance unable to encompass the entire army . They could not figure out how many Demons there were .

The Myriad-Law Fiend Master muttered, “This…”

“The forces of the Deep Abyss Demonic World came in full force; they have already cut off all their paths of retreat!” the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign said sullenly with a heavy frown .

The Demon cultivators that appeared in the distance numbered in the tens of millions . The Deep Abyss Demonic World did not have that many people . This looked to be their entire population .

After the Demon cultivators all appeared, many ferocious Demonic Beasts followed at their heels .

When the Primes saw this scene, their expressions turned grave, the earlier conversation forgotten .

With such a shocking scene, the identity of the Treasure Master was already irrelevant . So what if they knew? Would they be able to kill him if they knew?

At the same time, the Primes felt a chill run down their spines . If they had not listened to Xiao Chen’s suggestion and had lingered, they might have ended up being surrounded .

Not long after, the armies of the Deity Dao Union, the Martial God Palace, and the Fiend Domain arrived . So, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign and the other Kunlun Continent Primes took their leave first .

“Return to Kunlun Mountain and quickly inform every race to start withdrawing . ”

The Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign and the others did not have much time to think . They quickly turned and sped into the distance .

In the following days, they would be very busy . They needed to move the ordinary citizens and weak cultivators of their races in the shortest time possible .

Xiao Chen, along with the Myriad-Law Fiend Master, the Cyclic Astral Lord, and the Bright Moon Empress, headed straight for Kunlun Mountain .

Half a day later, they reached the Profound Domain . When they raised their heads, they could see the tallest towering peak of the Kunlun Mountain Range .

The rising and falling mountain range crossed the entire Profound Domain, splitting it into two .

The Profound Domain looked very peaceful . This was the neutral zone that connected every race and had not suffered from any attacks yet .

However, the news of the Demonic Calamity had already spread far and wide . The entire Kunlun Realm was talking about this .

Clearly, the Profound Domain was also affected . Xiao Chen discovered that the western half of the Profound Domain, the part that they traveled through, was distinctly less bustling than before . The various clans of the Profound Domain must have heard the news and moved to the back of Kunlun Mountain in anticipation .

Upon arriving at the Profound Domain, Xiao Chen naturally thought of the Saber Sword Two Sovereigns, or rather, the word “former” should be added in front .

Right now, Xiao Chen was the Saber Sovereign . As for the Sword Sovereign Medallion, it was likely taken away by Chu Chaoyun .

Suddenly, Xiao Chen remembered something . The Treasure Master thought that Xiao Chen went to Kunlun Mountain to seek reinforcements . At that time, Xiao Chen was somewhat puzzled; were the people of Kunlun Mountain very strong?

Hence, he immediately asked the Myriad-Law Fiend Master about it .

“Kunlun Mountain’s defenders are quite special . There are not many of them, and there are people from every race . However, they are all secretly selected elites . They have existed since the start of the Martial Epoch . At first, they were rather scattered, just merely some people from the various races protecting the Kunlun Realm together .

“However, later on, the Demons grew stronger, so Kunlun Mountain’s scattered protectors banded together and became an independent faction known as the Kunlun Palace, which stands above the various large sects and races . Even the Deity Race and the Martial God Palace cannot interfere with the matters of the Kunlun Palace . ”

The Myriad-Law Fiend Master gave Xiao Chen an introduction to some of Kunlun Mountain’s matters . Then, he continued, “Furthermore, the many factions are not aware of how strong exactly the Kunlun Palace is . After the cultivators of the various races enter the Kunlun Palace, they rarely come back out . Hence, not much information has leaked .

“Of course, the most important thing is that the minor Demonic Calamities happen only once every one thousand years . Most of the time, the Kunlun Palace does not have much of a presence . They do not interfere with the matters of the outside world . It is like this faction does not exist and does not need to be paid attention to . ”

Now, Xiao Chen understood, gaining a rough idea of this Kunlun Palace . They were somewhat like a utopia, which did not mix with the rest of the world, more or less similar to what he imagined .

Logically speaking, the Kunlun Palace had existed since the start of the Martial Epoch and been passed down for a long time . It took in the elites of the five races, nurturing them in secret from childhood . They should be very strong .

No wonder the Treasure Master thought that Xiao Chen went to Kunlun Mountain to seek reinforcements . Evidently, the Treasure Master understood the Kunlun Palace well . However, upon further consideration, this made sense . Given the Treasure Master’s identity, it was impossible for him not to know about the Kunlun Palace .

Many could not understand why the Treasure Master did not initiate the final attack when he previously had eighteen Immortal statues and could command the eighteen Demon Monarchs . In hindsight, he probably feared this unfathomable Kunlun Palace .

Xiao Chen looked at the Myriad-Law Fiend Master and prompted, “Others might not understand this Kunlun Palace, but Senior Fiend Master probably knows a little, right?”

The Myriad-Law Fiend Master had participated in Demonic Calamities before and was definitely acquainted with the Kunlun Palace .

Smiling softly, the Myriad-Law Fiend Master said, “The three of us have all interacted with this Kunlun Palace . However, we do not know many people . If the Thunder Sovereign were here, our contacts would be much more . After all, Senior Thunder Sovereign experienced the most Demonic Calamities . Many of the Kunlun Palace’s upper echelon come from the human race and received kindness or pointers from the Thunder Sovereign before . ”

When the Thunder Sovereign was mentioned, the Cyclic Astral Lord and the Bright Moon Empress showed rather sad expressions .

If such a legendary person were still around, together with Xiao Chen, this Demonic Calamity would not be much .

Or to be more direct, if the Thunder Sovereign were still around, Xiao Chen’s tribulation would have been simpler, and the Kunlun Continent would not have been in chaos .

If the Kunlun Continent were in peace, the Deity Dao Union would not have such great conflicts with the Martial God Palace, resulting in both sides suffering damage . The Deep Abyss Demonic World would not find a chance to make a move .

Perhaps after Xiao Chen rose up, he could have organized the various factions and charged into the Demonic World .

However, all this was just fantasy . No matter how much one thought of or spoke about it, it was pointless .

Xiao Chen remained silent, but his expression changed slightly . He stopped asking about the Kunlun Palace .

“Whoosh!”

Suddenly, a pretty figure flew over from in front, causing sonic booms . This person was headed for Heavenly Star Island .

Xiao Chen squinted, and a strange look flashed in his eyes . The new arrival was the Ying Clan’s Ying Qiong . He had not seen her for very long already and did not know why she was coming here .

“It looks like someone from the Profound Domain’s Ying Clan,” the Cyclic Astral Lord said uncertainly as he looked at Ying Qiong .

“That is my friend . The Ying Clan also supported the Azure Emperor ten thousand years ago . For many years, they have been taking care of the Xiao Clan . ”

Xiao Chen, who had been silent, revealed a trace of joy . Then, he said to Mo Chen, “Open the barrier . Let her in . ”

Mo Chen did as told, opening the barrier . With a few flashes, Ying Qiong arrived before Xiao Chen .

“This humble lady is Ying Qiong . Greetings to the various Prime seniors . ” Understanding propriety, Ying Qiong immediately greeted the Cyclic Astral Lord and the other Primes when she came forward .

After some polite pleasantries, Ying Qiong said to Xiao Chen, “Xiao Chen, can I have a word with you?”

Xiao Chen felt confused . He could not figure out what would warrant a private conversation .

After they walked a distance away, Ying Qiong’s smile vanished, and her expression turned grave . “Xiao Chen, about what I’m going to say, please be mentally prepared and don’t get too agitated . ”

Xiao Chen’s heart sank, but his expression did not change . He studied Ying Qiong’s face, seeking a clue, but got nothing . Then, he said, “I promise . What is it? Please tell me . ”

“This is news that I got from Ying Yue not long ago . I was planning to tell you earlier, but the Heavenly Starry Ocean was in great chaos, so I did not dare to go over . I figured that you would be coming to Kunlun Mountain sooner or later, so I have been waiting here . ”

At the mention of Ying Yue’s name, Xiao Chen had a bad feeling, thinking of something .

Ying Qiong continued, “Chu Chaoyun occupied the Sky Dome Realm at a lightning-fast speed . The various Great Nations and sects were all destroyed . Now, there is only one Imperial Nation, the Tianwu Imperial Nation . The Emperor is Chu Chaoyun himself . ”

“Are my relatives in the Xiao Clan alright?”

“According to the news from Ying Yue, all the people of the Xiao Clan were taken by Chu Chaoyun . It is unknown whether they are alive or dead,” Ying Qiong said softly, not daring to look Xiao Chen in the eye .
