<h4>Chapter 886: wless</h4>


    When the three Corpse Race Superior Grade Martial Sages attacking Xiao Chen saw him looking perplexed, they could not help but rejoice. They previously thought that he would die soon. However, despite a long wait, he was still alive. They began to fear in their hearts despite themselves.


    How could these old men not tell that Xiao Chen was in the middle ofprehending? Once he seeded, his strength would soar, experiencing a qualitative improvement; he would undergo metamorphosis. At that time, only death awaited them.


    Seeing such an opportunity, the three old men steeled themselves to stop giving Xiao Chen any more chances. They roared war cries as death Qi spread out and covered the sky once more, blocking out the starlight.


    The green-robed old man smiled coldly and did not stop them. He also took advantage of this opportunity to charge over and kill Xiao Chen. A perilous situation cropped up right away.


    Long Fei withdrew his hand. For some reason, at the critical moment, he let the green-robed old man go.


    The ce turned silent, and everyone sucked in a deep breath of cold air as they took in the perplexed Xiao Chen and his perilous situation. If he still could not seed in hisprehension, he would not have another chance.


    Death looming over him seemed to stimte Xiao Chen’s mind. There was a sh of inspiration, and he whispered a word, “wless.”


    That’s right. It is wless. My saber Dao is called wless.


    No one in the world dared to call their Martial Techniques or Cultivation Techniques perfect and wless. They would always append the word “nearly” before these.


    The Heavenly Dao was benevolent. It would always leave a chance for survival. However, the Heavenly Dao was emotionless as well. It would not permit something truly perfect and wless to exist in this world.


    The moon waxed and waned. Humans rejoiced and grieved. Even the smoothest thing in the world had marks when magnified thousands of times.


    However, the word that Xiao Chen thought of today was “wless.” No other word since the dawn of time could describe his saber Dao.


    With that sh of inspiration, the rain of starlight focused, illuminating the night sky and gathering on Xiao Chen. Since ancient times, only major characters could manifest such a mysterious phenomenon. All the injuries on his body instantly healed.


    As Xiao Chen whispered the word, he suddenly broke through the bottleneck of Inferior Grade Martial Sage, charging into Medial Grade Martial Sage.


    Fighting desperately when confronting mortal danger, Xiao Chen shaped his Dao and underwent metamorphosis. With all the cultivators on Dragon Wood Star looking on, he experienced a rebirth.


    A strong wind blew and scattered the ck death Qi. Xiao Chen’s lips curled up as he tapped his forehead with two fingers. Then he said, “If the bright moon is wless, would it permit the stars to shine?”


    Right after he spoke, a bright moon rose up behind him—a perfectly wless full moon. Against its resplendent light, the starlight paled inparison.


    Before the four Corpse Race Martial Sages charging over could feel any fear, they saw Xiao Chen stretch out his hand and point. In that instant, the light of the bright moon in the sky gathered at his fingertip.


    A cold and unparalleled saber light shot out in a sh. The four Corpse Race Martial Sages and four Sage Grade Demonic Corpses could not resist at all, ending up split in half.


    If the bright moon is wless, the starlight will vanish on its own. How could these grains of lightpete with the bright moon?


    The entire ce fell silent; not a single sound broke the stillness. Earlier, they saw the perilous situation Xiao Chen was in. They felt it was unfortunate and could not bear to say anything.


    However, Xiao Chen had now undergone rebirth. After heprehended his Dao, his shocking strength startled everyone into silence.


    From could not bear to did not dare, the change happened in an instant.


    wless Bright Moon, starlight vanishing!


    Xiao Chen formallyprehended his wless saber Dao. As he did so, he remembered Moon Bright Like Fire, which had startled him many years ago.


    After making some slight changes, he found that it was verypatible with his wless saber Dao. This could be considered a Martial Technique that he created based on the wless saber Dao. In this world, only he knew this.


    Seeing eight bright purple skulls appear on the medallion hanging at his waist, Xiao Chen felt rather satisfied with the might of this move.


    The moon faded away, and stars reappeared. The glorious night sky glittered above everyone once more.


    “Starlight raining down, undergoing metamorphosis, and experiencing a rebirth. Excellent. At the moment ofprehension, you instantly killed four Superior Grade Martial Sages. Xiao Chen, you have not disappointed me.”


    Long Fei stepped forward and closed his folding fan. As he walked in the air, he looked at Xiao Chen without fear.


    Xiao Chen stood erect with his hands behind his back. As he looked at the schrly, white-faced Long Fei, who exuded an air of elegance, he asked, “Do you regret giving me that opportunity earlier?”


    Long Fei’s hand moved and opened up the folding fan again. Then he smiled calmly and replied, “You fought for the opportunity yourself; it has nothing to do with me. However, this starlight might not be falling only for you.”


    As he spoke, the stars above flickered. Starlight fell like snow. As it drifted down, there was the faint sound of a zither and a flute.


    When Long Fei got closer, Xiao Chen realized that the white folding fan in Long Fei’s hand was actually a bone fan. These white bones would be from a Martial Emperor. After being polished numerous times, they became as smooth as white jade. This was a truly strong bone weapon.


    As for the falling starlight, it was different from what appeared earlier. This snow-like gentle starlight had to be the mysterious phenomenon of some technique. It was not the mysterious phenomenon created when one broke through a bottleneck.


    “Falling Snow Drifting Song; Zither and Flute in Concert!”


    “This is the mysterious phenomenon that would appear only after one cultivated the Nine Heavens Astral Arts to the eighthyer.”


    “Unexpectedly, this Long Fei does not cultivate the White Bone Sovereign’s Cultivation Technique—the White Bones Dharmic Arts. Instead, he cultivates the famous ancient Nine Heavens Astral Arts.”


    “That is impossible. Based on his appearance, he clearly has the distinctive characteristics of cultivating White Bones Dharmic Arts.”


    “Could it be that he is cultivating two Cultivation Techniques at the same time? These two are both peak Heaven Ranked Cultivation Techniques. Can he manage that?”


    Seeing the mysterious phenomenon of Falling Snow Drifting Song; Zither and Flute in Concert, all the cultivators in the air were astonished.


    Xiao Chen had not expected that there was more to this story. It looked like he should not take this Long Fei lightly. This was already clear from how Long Fei could calmly face his breakthrough.


    “Xiao Chen, now that you have destroyed the Corpse Refining Pool, you have made great contributions to the Martial God Pce. You will definitely be able to gain at least one hundred thousand military merits. Do you dare to bet with me to attempt to make another contribution?”


    The starlight fell like snowkes drifting. The zither and flute sounded pleasing, like celestial music. However, from all these hints, Xiao Chen sensed an aura of ruin.


    This was a power that could attract starlight. How mighty would it be when used against an enemy?


    While others might not be able to detect anything in the zither and flute sounds, Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Sense could clearly make out that this music had already traveled for five hundred kilometers without fading. If focused into a line, it would easily pierce through a mountain.


    This Long Fei is not simple!


    However, Xiao Chen had never feared this person. Now that heprehended his wless saber Dao, all the more he would not fear Long Fei. He asked calmly, “What do you want to bet?”


    Smiling gently, Long Fei replied, “Since you already broke the Corpse Refining Pool, my Corpse Race no longer has any hope of conquering this Dragon Wood Star. Even if we don’t want to, we will have to retreat. My Corpse Race still upies two resource stars previously belonging to your Martial God Pce. These are what I will stake.


    “Let us fight. If I lose, I will retreat and return one resource star. If you lose, you will bring the Martial God Pce away from Dragon Wood Star, losing another resource star.”


    What a bold tone and remarkable bet! Long Fei actually proposed to stake a resource star. He was extraordinarily confident.


    Whispers broke out everywhere. Everyone was somewhat incredulous. The strength that Xiao Chen disyed earlier was already frighteningly strong. However, based on Long Fei’s appearance, he was clearly confident.


    Everyone could not help but wonder where this confidence came from.


    “Xiao Chen, I agree to this bet on your behalf. If you can win and gain back one resource star, I will give you five hundred thousand military merits.”


    Before Xiao Chen could say anything, Dragon Wood Star’s Huangpu Feng already spoke, epting the bet on Xiao Chen’s behalf.


    Although the risk was high, the Martial God Pce could get back one resource star. Such chances were hard toe by. The opponent was the descendant of a Sovereign Martial Emperor. Given his status, he would not casually break his promise.


    “Haha! Even if you agree, I don’t!”


    Up in the air, the Underworld Fire Sovereign’s antagonistic descendant, Wei Hua, stepped forward in extreme dissatisfaction. He jumped off the Corpse Dragon warship andnded beside Long Fei. He said, “Brother Long Fei, you overestimate this Xiao Chen. Furthermore, it is not like we cannot continue fighting for this Dragon Wood Star. Isn’t that right, Qi Wuxue, the Young Master of the Muddy Sky Gate?”


    The various factions in the air could be split roughly into three groups. While the Muddy Sky Gate’s strength here was significantly weaker than the other two groups’, the sect still could change the bnce by joining either side.


    Wei Hua’s words clearly sought to bring the Muddy Sky Gate’s faction here to his side.


    Qi Wuxue stood on his warship’s bow and did not reply immediately to Wei Hua. He smiled and said, “The name Xiao Chen became very famous two years ago. It is a name that everyone in the Primal Chaos Domain knows. Unexpectedly, I get to meet you in such a fashion today.


    “Brother Wei Hua shows much regard for me, Qi Wuxue. Earlier, I was indeed dissatisfied and wanted to try fighting it out. However, now…”


    Qi Wuxue returned to the topic, speaking in a powerful and resonant voice. “What I want even more is to see who is more powerful: the White Bone Sovereign’s descendant who can manifest Falling Snow Drifting Song; Zither and Flute in Concert to such an extent or the reborn Azure Emperor’s descendant.”


    The people in the Primal Chaos Domain were not all evil loose cultivators. There were also some who were neither righteous nor evil. They never cared about rules and did as they pleased. Taking Qi Wuxue as an example, he rejected Wei Hua before so many people, causing Wei Hua extreme embarrassment.


    Wei Hua could not help but curse angrily in his heart several times. Unexpectedly, he got rejected like this before so many people. How was he to continue holding his head up high?


    Steeling himself, Wei Hua snorted coldly and said, “Qi Wuxue, I finally have a clear view of your true self. In the future, we will stand on opposite sides.”


    Seeing Qi Wuxue appearing not to care, Wei Hua shifted his gaze back to Xiao Chen. He said, “Xiao Chen, Long Fei is not the only one who dares to bet with you. I, Wei Hua, will bet with you as well.


    “Everyone knows about the grudges between us in the Sage Mark Monument. Today, we can resolve the old and new hatreds. Do you dare to fight me properly? I will also bet a resource star. However, if I win, you have to break your own arm.”


    Unexpectedly, Qi Wuxue’s words roused Wei Hua’s hot-bloodedness. The crowd cried out in excitement. Although the Underworld Fire Sovereign ranked thest among the Corpse Race Sovereign Martial Emperors and had even sustained injuries at the Iron Hand Sovereign’s hands, Wei Hua was still the descendant of a Sovereign Martial Emperor. He would not be weak.
