Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 635 - Heroes Gathered

“Xiao Zhen!” Chen Fan was also surprised. A smile appeared on his face and he greeted, “Long time no see.”

Xiao Zhen smiled, “It has indeed been a long time, but I didn’t expect it to be really you. Not only did the Hidden Dragon Island fail to conceal your brilliance, even on the Ancient Trial Road, where geniuses are as abundant as the raindrops, you still shine brightly.”

Chen Fan smiled and replied, “It’s not something I seek out, but it seems there are always people eager to challenge me, leaving me with no choice but to respond."

“Haha.” Xiao Zhen laughed out loud and said, “That’s just how it should be. You know, if you want to catch the eye of the higher-ups at the True Martial Academy, making a name for yourself on the Ancient Trial Road is crucial. With the reputation you’ve built, you’re well on your way to becoming at least an inner sect disciple when you arrive."

The two continued their conversation, clearly enjoying each other's company.

Boom!

Suddenly, a powerful aura swept through the sky.

A handsome young man, dressed in fine brocade, appeared, gently fanning himself with a folding fan in a manner reminiscent of a refined gentleman.

He flew in on a beam of rainbow light, followed closely by a dozen tall and imposing men, each exuding formidable strength, all in the fourth or fifth-level Divine Nascent realm.

“Heaven Supervisory Bureau’s Seventh Young Master is here!”

“It really is him. His reputation as the Ruthless Seventh Young Master has spread far and wide across the Ancient Trial Road. He might look all refined and scholarly, but he’s a ruthless and terrifying figure."

“Hehe, without being ruthless, how could he have stood out in a place like the Heaven Supervisory Bureau? He’s only the Seventh Young Master, after all. There’s still the Sixth Young Master, Fifth Young Master, and so on above him. All of them are vicious and merciless people with great ambition who kill without blinking an eye. No matter if it’s their strength or capability, they are all outstanding.”

“That’s true. Let alone Seventh Young Master, those burly men with him aren’t simple, either. Each one possesses deep and formidable strength, truly terrifying experts. There are even two fifth-level Divine Nascent realm experts among them, tsk tsk.”

“I heard through the grapevine that the Seventh Young Master wanted to undergo the trial on another Ancient Road. But with the emergence of the microcosm, he decided to turn the Gen Road on its head instead."

“That’s right, the Great Qin Empire’s Heaven Supervisory Bureau is a major power in its own right. With him here, there’s bound to be a fierce clash with the Dragon God Army over the opportunities in the Sky Dragon Divine Stronghold. The sparks that fly from their collision are sure to be intense."

“I haven’t given much thought to that. I just hope I can find some natural treasures within the microcosm to raise my cultivation.”

Although many people nearby were discussing, they kept their voices down.

The Seventh Young Master had already earned a fearsome reputation for being ruthless and merciless. Should they inadvertently incur his wrath, they might not live to regret it.

“So, that’s the Heaven Supervisory Bureau’s Seventh Young Master? I’ve also heard about his fierce reputation,” said Xiao Zhen calmly, looking at that group.

Chen Fan also looked over and said, “He is indeed a formidable character. I’m afraid the competition inside the microcosm would be a bloody storm.”

He felt a slight unease in his heart. Although the Seventh Young Master hadn’t brought many people with him, each one was an elite powerhouse.

With two fifth-level Divine Nascent realm experts, eight fourth-level Divine Nascent realm, and the Seventh Young Master himself, who possessed extraordinary strength, this was a fearsome group.

Chen Fan was confident he could handle the Seventh Young Master in a one-on-one confrontation, facing his entire entourage would undoubtedly be troublesome.

Shortly after the Seventh Young Master arrived, another group of experts descended from the sky, encircling a figure radiating an unfathomable aura.

This aura belonged to a black-clad elder with an aquiline nose and eyes as sharp as a falcon’s, occasionally flashing with a menacing gleam.

“The City Lord Manor’s people are here. That black-clothed elder is the revered elder of the City Lord Manor. Apparently, he once saved the city lord’s life; since then, the city lord has treated him as an esteemed guest. His strength is unfathomable.”

“How truly terrifying. I didn’t expect the city lord manor to have such a powerful patron. No wonder the Third Dragon Lord couldn’t gain the upper hand against him."

“Although the Third Dragon Lord is powerful, he’s still young—a king among the younger generation. The revered elder, on the other hand, has cultivated for centuries, making his depth of power difficult for most to comprehend. It only makes sense that the Third Dragon Lord suffered a loss in his hands.”

As the City Lord Manor’s entourage arrived, the crowd cast their gazes over one after another. The volume of their discussion also became a little louder, in contrast to the earlier subdued murmurs about the Seventh Young Master.

“Just one microcosm drew out all these old monsters who were hiding deeply. The competition this time, tsk tsk, people like us simply have no business with it. We can only pick up some scraps for ourselves,” said Xiao Zhen.

He had obtained a Heavenly Star realm expert’s legacy and had advanced to the second-level Divine Nascent realm. He would be a great expert in the Hong Domain, but here, he really didn’t have much presence.

Martial artists like him could be found everywhere here.

“No need to undersell yourself. These people only cultivated for a longer time than us. Surpassing them is only a matter of time,” Chen Fan said with a smile, sizing up that revered elder.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Suddenly, an extremely powerful nefarious qi rippled in space.

It seemed like a great devil was rushing over, his demonic aura overwhelming and sucking in people’s minds. The sheer malevolence of his presence quickly drew the attention of everyone around.

Swish, swish.

The sound of air being sliced open rang out as a slightly tanned youth soared through the sky, leading a group of followers. He did not attempt to conceal the nefarious qi; his aura was so oppressive it seemed to shake the very heavens.

“It’s the members of the Seven Fiends Organization!”

“That tanned guy is Cao Yuan. It is said that he obtained the legacy of a demonic path expert and cultivates an incredibly domineering demonic cultivation technique. His strength is so great that even the Third Dragon Lord returned without managing to accomplish anything.”

“These people are too arrogant. They’ve come to our Gen Road, yet they show no restraint, flaunting their auras as they please. Are they trying to provoke us, Gen Road martial artists?”

“They’re too detestable!”

Despite the irritation many felt at the overpowering auras released by the Seven Fiends Organization, no one dared to act. After all, like the Seventh Young Master’s group, every one of Cao Yuan’s followers was an elite in their own right.

Buzz, buzz!

Just as Cao Yuan and the others arrived, before they could stand firmly, the temperature in space suddenly soared. A terrifying heat wave swept over from afar, and the space distorted fiercely.

“So hot!”

“My god, what is happening? Why did the temperature suddenly skyrocket?”

“Could it be that the Sky Dragon Divine Stronghold’s microcosm is about to appear?”

“You fool, look over there. There, look, the Flame King, Xiao Yan is here!”

As the crowd murmured in confusion, a figure appeared in the sky. He moved swiftly, and nine flames of different colors swirled around him, creating a dazzling spectacle.

These nine flames were gorgeous, but the terrifying heat they emitted told the crowd that these flames were very dangerous and could easily burn everything in a thousand-kilometer radius around them.

The Flame King, Xiao Yan, had arrived!
