Peerless War God

Fu Xue's eyes were bloodshot as she stretched out her slender hands, wanting to touch the wounds on Chen Xiao's body. However, as she trembled, she quickly retracted her hands.    

The injuries on his body were too severe, especially the Blood Devil doppelganger. It had been corroded by the strange dark aura and had almost turned into a pile of rotten mud. It was extremely horrifying.    

Chen Xiao did not say much. He raised his hand and waved it, causing the black rotten things to dissipate. A blood-colored little person walked out from the filthy things.    

The Blood Devil doppelganger, which was originally the size of a person, was severely injured by the black shadow. It was only the size of a palm, and its aura was extremely weak.    

Chen Xiao smiled bitterly and said, "The doppelganger was almost destroyed. The corrosive power of the dark energy is so terrifying that even the flesh of an immortal-level is unable to resist it. It's so terrifying."    

As he spoke, Chen Xiao waved his right hand, and the Blood Devil doppelganger flew into his soul sea and disappeared.    

After this battle, it would be extremely difficult for the Blood Devil doppelganger to recover. It would require a huge amount of energy and blood.    

When Fu Xue saw this, she said thoughtfully, "Captain, is that black shadow related to Ao Miao and Ao Zhi?"    

"Their auras are very similar. Captain, is there something fishy going on?"    

Zuo Zhao also said. Seeing that Chen Xiao was fine, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief.    

If something had really happened to Chen Xiao after being ambushed, the two of them would not be able to redeem themselves even if they died ten thousand times. Fortunately, the black shadow assassin retreated in the face of danger and did not pursue the matter.    

Hearing that, a cold light flashed in Chen Xiao's eyes. He said, "You can tell?"    

"Yes."    

Fu Xue and Zuo Zhao looked at each other and said in unison.    

"Yes. The strange dark aura on the black shadow just now, as well as the terrifying corrosive power, are consistent with the aura on Ao Miao and Ao Zhi. It's too similar. There must be something strange about it. I've sent people to investigate. The two of them were only at the peak of the Tribulation Transcender Realm not long ago, but they broke through to the Immortal level in a short period of time. It's really too unbelievable."    

Fu Xue said worriedly.    

She was very attentive. She noticed that something was wrong and immediately started to investigate.    

After Chen Xiao heard that, he thought about it and said, "Not long ago, they were only at the peak of the Tribulation Immortal Realm, but their strength rose sharply in a short period of time. Such methods are indeed unbelievable. Although the two of them are much weaker than true Immortal level experts, it's still shocking enough."    

"Captain, could it be related to the Dark Shrine?" Zuo Zhao suddenly said.    

Chen Xiao let out a long sigh, and an ominous feeling appeared in his heart.    

"What you said is exactly what I'm worried about. If the black shadow that ambushed me just now is really related to the Dark Shrine, then they won't let it go so easily. They will come again."    

Chen Xiao said with a worried expression.    

He had experienced the terror of the Dark Shrine before. It was like a ghost that was everywhere.    

This suffocating feeling made Chen Xiao feel extremely uncomfortable.    

"What is the Dark Shrine trying to do?" Fu Xue asked.    

Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't know, but from the looks of it, they have a big plan. We have to be on guard at all times."    

"En."    

"Got it, Captain. Fu Xue and I will protect you. Your recovery is more important," Zuo Zhao said.    

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Alright, you guys go out first. I'll set up a formation."    

"Yes."    

The two of them left the Cloud Pavilion. Chen Xiao set up a defensive formation and began to heal.    

As for the Sky Ocean Island army, under the leadership of Qin Daoyuan, they were slaughtering the Dragon Palace side to side.    

It was destined that today would be the day of the Dragon Palace Sea Race's suffering.    

At the same time, in the sky above the Golden Island, a cold man with a golden sword on his back was confronting a strong man with a ferocious dragon head.    

Although the two of them were dozens of miles apart, they locked onto each other's Qi and did not relax for even a moment.    

The Heavenly Star Swordmaster's eyes were deep as he looked into the distance, looking somewhat worried.    

After a while, he finally relaxed, "It seems like the situation is set."    

"Hmph, that Chen Xiao is lucky. Even after fighting in such a long battle, he still wasn't killed," the Azure Dragon Palace Master said sternly, his face filled with unwillingness.    

The Heavenly Star Swordmaster’s eyes erupted with boundless Sword Intent as he said, “I thought you wouldn’t be able to hold back. That was the best opportunity to launch a sneak attack.”    

Palace Master Cang Long laughed coldly and said, “If I were to make a move, would you just stand by and watch?”    

“Of course not.”    

“Then we’re finished. Neither of us can do anything to the other. The Ocean Palace won’t interfere,” Palace Master Cang Long said in a low voice.    

Although the Ocean Palace had made a verbal agreement with the Violet Cloud City to not interfere, the Heavenly Star Swordmaster didn’t dare to relax his guard on the Ocean Palace.    

After all, the agreement was only a verbal agreement. Breaking it was extremely simple.    

Therefore, the Heavenly Star Swordmaster wasn’t at ease with Palace Master Cang Long, and he wouldn’t be so lucky on this matter. He had to be on guard.    

The Heavenly Star Swordmaster’s eyes flashed coldly as he questioned, “You knew that someone would launch a sneak attack?”    

“Hehe.” Palace Master Cang Long smiled sinisterly and didn’t answer.    

“What is the background of that black shadow? You should know, right?” The Heavenly Star Swordmaster probed again.    

“If I say I don’t know, would you believe me?” Palace Master Cang Long said with a teasing expression.    

Obviously, he knew some of the black shadow’s origins.    

The Heavenly Star Swordmaster’s brows sank as he said, “Palace Master Cang Long, you’re playing with fire. That power is too evil. Be careful, you’ll be devoured one day.”    

“Evil?” Palace Master Cang Long laughed wildly and said indifferently, “There’s no such thing as evil. It’s just that it depends on who controls it. Your words are useless to me.”    

Hearing this, the Heavenly Star Swordmaster's heart sank, "Does this mean that the Sea God Temple is really involved in this?"    

"I can't tell you anything. After talking so much with you, it's about time."    

The Azure Dragon Palace Master left with these words and turned around to leave.    

The Heavenly Star Swordmaster looked at the back of the other party as he left with a worried expression.    

"Chen Xiao, you have to hold on!"    

A deep sense of unease lingered in his heart for a long time.    

At the same time, in the depths of the Endless Sea, in front of the nameless cave.    

Mu Daoxing was bored as he sat on a large rock, but his spiritual will was faintly discernible, watching the progress of the battlefield at all times.    

When the human cultivators of the Heavenly Sea Island gained the upper hand and the Dragon Palace Army was defeated.    

Mu Daoxing finally revealed a smile and said, "Ao Yi, you must be feeling guilty now. The Dragon Palace is no longer the same as it was in the past. It's impossible for the Dragon Clan to revive."    

"Hmph."    

Although Ao Yi was unconvinced, he could not refute this statement. He could only snort coldly to express his dissatisfaction.    

With Mu Daoxing around, he could not make a move. He could only watch this scene unfold in front of his eyes.
