Chapter 1830 (Raw 1841): Surprise Appearance

Of course, Xiao Chen would not take sides. The Soul Tool was right before him. His thoughts were very simple.

I must obtain it!

The instant the porcelain-like mask entered Xiao Chen’s hand, the strong restriction in it immediately activated.

A resonant sword hum rang out, and resplendent sword lights burst out of the mask, radiating a terrible majesty.

The Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s sword Qi immediately shot out in all directions.

“Ka ca! Ka ca!”

The sword lights flew about chaotically, looking resplendent and dazzling. The plump, middle-aged man, the pretty woman, and that cold swordsman were poised to attack Xiao Chen.

However, when the sword lights charged over, dealing with the sword Qi took priority.

Xiao Chen had expected this to happen. The moment he touched the mask, he let go and brought out the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram.

Crisp cracking rang out. The restriction that the Scarlet Blood Pirate King left on the Soul Tool was far stronger than those on the inherited Dao Tools.

The sword Qi immediately pierced through the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram, which turned back into flames and scattered.

The brief moment that the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram managed to block the sword Qi was sufficient for Xiao Chen to dodge calmly. He tilted his body slightly, evading the sword Qi.

“Chi!”

As the sword Qi passed, it left a bleeding wound on Xiao Chen’s right cheek from the shock wave of the sword Qi grazing him.

Compared to the prepared Xiao Chen, the other three were caught completely off guard. The sword Qi nearly knocked them off the stone pillars.

It was not over yet. The sword Qi in the mask had not scattered.

The Scarlet Blood Pirate King left his will in the mask. As long as that will did not scatter, the sword Qi would remain.

Subduing this Soul Tool was a little difficult.

Previously, these three had already been in a stand-off. There was a reason why they did not dare to act rashly.

However, Xiao Chen did not care too much.

He grabbed the mask once more and quickly flew towards the stone pillar behind.

“Boom!”

Xiao Chen brought out his Saber Dao’s Great Dao energy, and his entire body released a resplendent saber light, clashing violently with the sword light from the mask for the first time. Boundless sword Qi and saber Qi spread out, forming fearsome sword winds and saber winds dancing in the surroundings.

“What a strong saber intent!”

“Great Dao Energy. Indeed, those that can reach this place are all impressive people.”

“If this continues, he might really subdue the Soul Tool.”

“After him!”

The plump, middle-aged man, the pretty woman, and that black-clad swordsman broke past the scary sword wind and saber wind, in pursuit of Xiao Chen.

The moment Xiao Chen laid eyes on this mask, he had decided that he had to obtain it at all costs.

He was certain that the mysterious scriptures on the mask had a great origin.

As he moved back, he filled his entire body with Great Dao Energy, materializing a boundless saber intent.

Xiao Chen continuously worked on wearing down the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s will in the mask—an extraordinarily intense process.

It was a series of life-and-death battles at every moment. Every time the saber intent and sword intent clashed, his internal organs churned, sending piercing pain throughout his body.

The sword intent and saber intent rampaged through Xiao Chen, straining his physical body at every moment.

Fortunately, he had dragon bones and the power of the Azure Dragon bloodline. Hence, his recovery ability was extremely strong.

Otherwise, his physical body would not have lasted for long before the sword intent and saber intent destroyed it.

“Why is this fellow so fast?!”

Under the pressure of the Faux God Might, everyone’s speed dropped to less than half of their usual speed. The plump, middle-aged man panted as he gave chase and could not help cursing.

“Cold Light Chop!”

The cold, black-clad swordsman drew his sword and quickly sent a sword light infused with his will of soul at Xiao Chen.

A chill suddenly appeared. Xiao Chen looked askance at its source. However, all he saw was a chilly wind, not a sword light or a sword intent.

The sword hid within the wind, together with the cold swordsman’s will of soul, as it pressed over.

It was like a sovereign of swords hiding in the wind, looking at Xiao Chen coldly.

The swordsman had silently sent out such a killing move. He was rather strong.

Left without a choice, Xiao Chen held on to the mask with his left hand and turned around to launch a saber strike.

“Whoosh!”

The saber scabbard flew out, creating a large hole in the invisible cold wind. Then, a saber light appeared. In an instant, Xiao Chen brought out eighty percent of the Tyrant Saber’s might.

“Boom!” The cold wind scattered and turned into thousands of sword lights shooting in all directions.

“He broke it?” The cold swordsman felt slightly startled. Then, after a while, the saber in Xiao Chen’s hand caught his eye.

“Inherited Dao Tool, Saber of Misfortune! No wonder! No wonder!” The cold swordsman said “no wonder” twice. He clearly found it strange.

Someone actually gained the acknowledgment of this saber. This was simply inconceivable.

Those that understood the Tyrant Saber’s history would show the same expression as the cold swordsman after recognizing it in Xiao Chen’s hand.

“Die!”

When Xiao Chen attacked, the pretty woman took the opportunity to charge over.

A palm wind laced with an extravagant perfume pressed down on Xiao Chen. The force of the palm strike seemed soft and gentle.

The pretty woman easily dodged Xiao Chen’s saber and pressed her palm directly on his chest.

Xiao Chen stabbed the Tyrant Saber into the ground, then released it as he landed. Clenching his right hand, he moved back to store up power.

A dragon roar rang out, and Dragon Might gathered in his body.

In the time it took for a spark to fly, he sent a fist light containing twenty Cauldron Force to clash with that soft palm wind.

Xiao Chen immediately knocked that pretty woman into the air. However, the gentle force of her palm strike barged into his body like a venomous snake.

He felt intense pain, and blood leaked out from his mouth. As he picked up his Tyrant Saber, he continued moving back.

“Little fellow, you don’t know how to treasure the fairer sex at all.”

The pretty woman smiled charmingly as she landed gently. After taking a breather for a moment, she resumed her pursuit.

The plump, middle-aged man was slower. He could not attack Xiao Chen at all. However, he was rather happy that the other two were exhausting Xiao Chen.

As Xiao Chen rushed away, he had to deal with the harassment from two people as well as the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s will in the mask.

Every step was dangerous. He was in a relatively passive position, which he found incredibly unpleasant.

If Xiao Chen was not careful, he might fall into the deep abyss, and his entire body would be crushed. He would be unable to recover from that.

However, he had already made up his mind. He needed to obtain this mysterious mask, regardless of the cost.

Gamble! I have to gamble on this!

“Damn it! That fellow is charging over.”

Just at this moment, Xiao Chen’s aura startled that group of old men who attacked him earlier.

The four old men were currently embroiled in an intense battle. No one wanted to admit defeat. All of them wanted to obtain the inherited Dao Tool on the stone pillar.

When these old men saw Xiao Chen coming over, they became alarmed and quickly stopped.

“I just knew that this fellow is a schemer and that he would definitely return. Indeed, that is the case.”

“He is too treacherous. Let’s attack together and make sure he never leaves this place.”

The four old men twisted the facts. Ignoring the fact that they sneak-attacked Xiao Chen first, they started making accusations of him.

When the fleeing Xiao Chen saw that he had returned to where he had been, he was slightly surprised.

However, the three on Xiao Chen’s tail were too relentless. Xiao Chen could not be bothered with these old men.

Xiao Chen firmly pushed off and landed on that stone pillar.

“That is?!”

The four old men, who were preparing to attack Xiao Chen, saw the mask in his hand. They were all stunned by the strong might and pressure that it gave off.

Before those old men could react, the saber intent in Xiao Chen’s body and the sword intent in the mask clashed again.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Saber light and sword light danced around wildly, spilling brilliance all over the place. The four old men cried out miserably and only barely managed to remain standing at the edge of the stone pillars after they brought out all that they had.

The saber light and sword Qi cut bloody wounds all over the four old men’s bodies, a sorry sight to behold.

The hearts of all of the old men thumped heavily in fright as they took big gulps of air.

However, before the old men could catch their breaths, the cold swordsman landed on the stone pillar, and a strong sword intent swept out the instant he arrived.

“Ah!”

The four old men standing at the edge yelped in startlement as they wobbled, on the verge of falling at any moment.

The black-clad swordsman did not care about the four old men at all. He swept his eyes around and fixed them on Xiao Chen, continuing to give chase.

Soon after that, the pretty woman landed. A strong perfume wafted out, tugging at the heartstrings of anyone who smelled it. The four old men who were bitterly struggling to maintain their footing felt dizzy.

The four old men complained endlessly in their hearts. After the pretty woman left, the plump, middle-aged man landed. The four finally gave up the struggle.

Now, the four old men could no longer complain. When the plump, middle-aged man landed, the stone pillar clearly trembled.

The four struggling old men cried out miserably as they fell into the abyss below.

“There is only thirty percent left!”

Xiao Chen felt the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s lingering will in the mask slowly weakening.

For the first time, his saber intent gained the upper hand against the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s will. This was truly great news.

Now, Xiao Chen felt more at ease when he dealt with the attacks of the cold swordsman and the pretty woman.

It was no longer like before, where danger was at every turn as if he would see the gates of hell at any moment.

“This fellow seems like he is about to subdue the mask.”

The previously expressionless, cold swordsman appeared somewhat anxious now.

Xiao Chen’s Movement Technique was clearly stronger than the three’s. Once he subdued the mask, no matter how capable the three were, they would not be able to keep him in this vast place.

The three had no choice but to gamble.

“Ten percent!”

Only ten percent remained of the sword intent in the mask. Xiao Chen was now completely at ease.

Finally, his saber intent could completely suppress the sword intent from the mask. He only needed a bit of time, just a little more, to subdue this white mask.

However, just at this moment, Xiao Chen felt intense danger. The shadow of death loomed overhead.

If he obstinately continued what he was doing, splitting his attention to suppress the Scarlet Blood Pirate King’s will in the mask, he would definitely die in the next moment.

Xiao Chen glanced back and happened to see the cold swordsman hovering in the air turn into a cold moon illuminating the surroundings.

There was someone in the moon producing a loud whistle with a sword.

When Xiao Chen looked over, a pair of incredibly cold eyes in the cold moon happened to meet his gaze.

Xiao Chen’s heart skipped a beat. Damn it! This swordsman’s senses are too sharp.

In a while more, just a little more, Xiao Chen could finish subduing this mask and retreat safely.

However, it was at this moment when the cold swordsman chose to clash head-on with him.

Xiao Chen swept his gaze through the place. On the other side, the plump, middle-aged man and the pretty woman were quickly approaching.

In a split second, Xiao Chen immediately decided to risk it all.

He absolutely could not stop subduing the mask. Once he missed this great opportunity, it would not come again.

Gambles involving one’s life were rare, but Xiao Chen had never been afraid to gamble with his.

Steeling his heart, he increased the pace of subduing the mask. Two disks of Great Dao Energy spread out behind him.

All the stars in his 9-Star Primal Core lit up. His Taiji force field suddenly formed.

The Tyrant Saber in Xiao Chen’s hand pulsated with light. His saber intent soared into the air, flickering with electric light.

“Crack!”

Just as the two were about to clash, the cold moon in the sky suddenly shattered.

The cold swordsman’s physical body got torn into pieces, and he immediately died, no longer showing signs of life.

“A Holy Venerate!”

The plump, middle-aged man and the pretty woman were scared into trembling. Then, they quickly turned around and fled.

Yan Zhe appeared slowly, stepping on the shattered moonlight filling the air. Then, he sheathed his sword and smiled at Xiao Chen. “Little Brother Xiao, Big Brother saved you again.”
