Peerless War God

Even the people closest to Chen Xiao were thousands of miles away.    

Chen Xiao could barely see three people with his telepathic thoughts, while the others were almost all gone.    

However, in this secret plane, a huge vortex of spiritual energy appeared.    

These spiritual energy vortexes could only produce strange sounds when a martial artist was cultivating and had released their body to absorb them.    

Obviously!    

Almost everyone who entered the secret realm chose to cultivate here to see if they could make any breakthroughs in their cultivation with the help of the dense Spiritual Aura of the world and the Spirit Stones that were everywhere.    

Chen Xiao didn't stay idle either. After observing for a while and finding nothing out of the ordinary, he also picked a spot to temporarily rest.    

Although it was called resting and reorganizing, it was actually just crafting array flags.    

His formation flags from before had all been used up, and the ones he had left weren't enough to set up any special formations.    

Furthermore, with the Heavenly Emperor here, it was impossible for him to cultivate right under the nose of the Heavenly Emperor.    

Alchemy and equipment forging were both ways to pass the time, so it was quite easy to get by.    

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.    

In this half a month, other than the Heavenly Emperor who would occasionally walk from east to west, exploring this area, everyone else had already entered into a meditative state.    

Some of them were still alright, they only used the spirit stones to absorb the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth that was abundant here.    

However, even more of them directly swept up a large amount of spirit stones and placed it beside him. Following that, they frantically devoured the energy within the spirit stones, continuously refining their soul.    

Chen Xiao was able to sense that the strength of several people's soul had increased by a lot.    

However, compared to the strength of their soul, their cultivation had not improved at all.    

There was no other way!    

For an existence above Divine Soul Realm, if one wanted to raise their cultivation even by a single strand, it would still require a tremendous amount of time. Even a heavenly paradise like this was not enough to allow one's cultivation to increase quickly.    

Of course, there were exceptions like Chen Xiao.    

The speed at which Chen Xiao's Void Spell devoured energy was too terrifying. As long as he was able to absorb all the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into his body, he would be able to directly transform it into his own Fa Li.    

… ….    

Half a month later, Chen Xiao's refining speed finally slowed down.    

Then he started to think about some things.    

In the past half month, besides observing the people around him, Chen Xiao was mostly paying attention to the changes in this place.    

It was hard for Chen Xiao not to be on his guard for the sudden appearance of a secret realm that was like a blessed spot.    

Moreover, it was obvious that those Soul Devouring Insects had entered the outer starry sky from this secret realm. After being burnt by the Netherworld Flame, they had actually disappeared from this place. No one had found out where those Soul Devouring Insects had gone to.    

Not only Chen Xiao, even the Celestial Emperor and the others might not have been able to discover the whereabouts of the Soul Devouring Insects.    

Chen Xiao didn't believe that all those Soul Devouring Insects had been burnt by the Hellfire.    

The Hellfire was indeed powerful, but those Soul Devouring Insects were not idiots. Under the situation where there was no external force restraining them, it was impossible for them to all hold their hands together and wait to be captured.    

However, after everyone entered, they didn't see a single Soul Devouring Bug. This made Chen Xiao very worried.    

He was worried that there might be another way for those things, or that there might be another will controlling those Soul Devouring Insects and hiding them.    

Chen Xiao couldn't let down his guard until he found out the reason for the Soul Devouring Worms' appearance.    

After the formation flags were completed, Chen Xiao planned to go out and see if he could find the whereabouts of the Soul Devouring Insects.    

"Eh, what's going on?"    

A look of shock flashed across Chen Xiao's face.    

At the same time, Chen Xiao's telepathic thoughts gathered at a location that was about ten million miles away.    

At that place, where it was originally relatively peaceful, a tide of spiritual energy suddenly surged out.    

This meant that someone was madly devouring the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth!    

Wasn't this efficiency too astonishing?    

Could it be that he was breaking through to the next realm?    

If he remembered correctly, that place should have been where King Wen cultivated in seclusion.    

But, hadn't Duke Wen just leveled up to the late stage of the Divine Soul Realm? Continuing to advance? Could it be to directly break through the Dao Emperor realm?    

The situation looked similar, but it seemed impossible.    

To break through the Dao Emperor realm, there was absolutely no such thing as child's play in front of him!    

Chen Xiao could no longer sit still even after a hundred thoughts ran through his mind. His body flashed and he quickly rushed out of the seclusion training area. He then quickly ran in the direction where the Sky and Earth aura was gathering.    

At the same time, not only did Chen Xiao, Xing Wu, the Heavenly Emperor, and Duan Wang swiftly flew over in shock.    

Amongst the group, the shock and confusion on the face of the Celestial Emperor was the strongest.    

Others may not know what state his Divine Soul Realm had broken through to, but he was quite clear about that.    

The current situation before his eyes might not be as abnormal as the situation he created when he broke through to the Dao Emperor Realm back then, but it was not too far off in reality.    

Could it be that the guy below is really going to break through to the existence of the Dao Emperor?    

The Celestial Emperor was expressionless, but in reality, his mind was quickly filled with these thoughts.    

Should he directly go down and kill him, or should he wait and see to it that the other party had truly broken through?    

If he were to go down now and kill him, then he would definitely kill the other Heavenly Kings and the rest of them as well. If not, how would the others view him killing his subjects for no reason at all?    

If word of this got out in the future, the whole world would probably laugh at him and turn him around.    

But if he did not kill him, if the other party really did become the next Dao Emperor, then it would definitely threaten his current status. He might even be able to overturn him just by joining hands with a group of Heavenly Kings!    

"That's not right!" "This is not a normal breakthrough, this is an infusion of spiritual energy!" The voice of the Celestial Emperor suddenly rang out, and both of his eyes became blurred into a straight line.    

At this moment, he finally saw a clue.    

The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was not gathered due to normal cultivation. Instead, it was all gathered by the guy below. Once he absorbed it all into his body, he would be able to quickly raise his cultivation!    

Normally, no one would ever do something like this, because it was no different from destroying one's own foundation. But now, this matter had been released right in front of their eyes!    

Furthermore, it all happened to the Heavenly King below him!
