Chapter 1264: Life Requisitor Asura Lan Chaofeng

The entire city was set abuzz. This explosive news was very shocking; it would be hard to not get startled by it.

“It is probably true. The Azure Dragon King grew strong too fast. It would not be strange for him to enter a state of Berserking Qi Deviation.”

“Come, let’s go and take a look!”

Some people who did not fear death could not endure the curiosity in their hearts and quickly headed to the peak. In that instant, the air filled with flickering figures. Thousands of people soared into the sky, heading in the same direction. The scene looked incredibly majestic.

At the same time, a few ordinary-looking old men walked out from some unremarkable shop lots in Heavenly Dragon City. Then, they coldly eyed that surging pillar of demonic light.

Among these old men, there were people from Holy Lands like the Cyclic Astral Palace, the Five Poison Sect, the Myriad Fiend Island, the Yinyang Paradise, and the Lunar Palace, as well as people from ancient Noble Clans and factions like the Divine Dragon Palaces of the four seas.

Without exception, all of them were Martial Emperors. There were even a few of them who were Second Heaven Martial Emperors.

In a mere one year, Heavenly Dragon City had become the center of the Western Sea. Its rise was exceptionally fast, unprecedented in history. As the various factions of the Heavenly Starry Ocean watched this, they did not let their guard down.

Even if they did not want to be enemies with Heavenly Dragon City, they still sent Martial Emperor experts over, which showed how much importance they placed on this city.

That way, if a sudden situation were to arise, they would be able to appear instantly. One example would be the Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace destroying Heavenly Dragon City. At such a moment, these hidden Martial Emperors would jump out and not let the Western Sea Divine Dragon Palace monopolize all the territory.

Just like the current situation, when the Azure Dragon King unexpectedly entered a state of Berserking Qi Deviation, with a Martial Emperor expert present, they would be able to come up with a quick countermeasure.

After a while, several Martial Emperor experts smiled coldly as they made a decision and silently headed for that peak.

There were also several Martial Emperors who decided to remain neutral after long thought. The experts from the Myriad Fiend Island, the Yinyang Paradise, and the Lunar Palace did not make a move.

At the peak where Xiao Chen was, when Mo Chen and the others saw that the cultivators that rushed over refused to listen to them, they chose to kill a few painfully as an object lesson.

“I’ll say this one more time. This is a restricted area of Heavenly Dragon City. If anyone else dares to take another step closer, we will kill without mercy!” Mo Chen said coldly after killing a Small Perfection quasi-Emperor, who had tried to barge in, with one palm strike.

Around Lan Shaobai and the others, there were at least one or two corpses of cultivators who tried to force their way through.

The cruel scene frightened everyone. It finally shocked the people who came to watch the commotion. After all, no matter how curious they were, their lives were definitely much more important.

“Go back. You will not be able to interfere in today’s matters. There is nothing to watch in there, either.”

Lan Shaobai’s tone sounded calm, but it also implied he brooked no refusal. While this was a request, it was also a command.

The few corpses around Lan Shaobai gave teeth to his words.

Although these cultivators were not satisfied, they still obediently retreated. However, they stopped after ten kilometers, continuing to watch from afar.

Jin Lin could not help scolding, “These people truly do not fear death. Getting them to retreat is for their own good. However, they are still unwilling to leave.”

Lan Shaobai massaged his temples and said, “Never mind. They already moved back far enough. What they do is up to them.”

Mo Chen said worriedly, “Earlier, there were at least five Martial Emperors that crossed the blockade.”

Lan Shaobai turned his head back and said, “I know. Just leave them to Master. Blocking Martial Emperors is beyond our capabilities.”

Mo Chen hesitated for a moment before looking over her shoulder and asking, “Do you think that Big Brother Xiao Chen can return?”

Lan Shaobai was not in a rush to answer. After a while, he said, “I believe in him. He may show a cold exterior, but his heart is warm. I do not believe that he will fall into the Demonic Dao.”

At the foot of the peak, Lan Chaofeng looked at four people in front of him. He said, “The Heavenly Province Academy, the Eastern Sea Divine Dragon Palace, the Five Poison Sect, and Old Jiang of one of the ancient Noble Clans. I really did not know there were so many Martial Emperors hidden in this Heavenly Dragon City.”

After the four saw Lan Chaofeng, they all showed stunned expressions. They had not expected Lan Chaofeng, nicknamed the Life Requisitor Asura, to appear right then.

After a few moments of silence, the elegant old man from the Heavenly Province Academy said, “Senior Lan, you saw the situation for yourself already. The Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen is already half a step into the Demonic Dao. This is the best time to kill him. If he truly turns into a demon, it will be a great disaster for the entire Heavenly Starry Ocean.”

“That’s right. You are aware of his talent. If such a demon grows up, I dare say that the entire Kunlun Realm will be in danger.”

“Senior Lan, you should not be stopping us. Instead, you should be killing your way up together with us, killing this demon while it is still in its cradle.”

Lan Chaofeng said indifferently, “Why are you all making so much noise? He is only half a step in and not completely in it yet. There is no need to accuse him of being a demon so early. At the very least, he still has not killed anyone and formally entered the Demonic Dao.”

“If we really wait for him to become a demon, it will be too late. Senior Lan, don’t make a misjudgment as a result of your old age and become a sinner for all eternity,” the Five Poison Sect’s old man said sinisterly, his tone sounding extremely insidious.

“If you want to protect a person, you have to do it at the right time. Now, even if we kill him, the Thunder Sovereign will not dare to say anything. What we are killing is a demon, a powerful demon. We will be recorded in history, becoming heroes!” the black-clad old man of the Eastern Sea Divine Dragon Palace said righteously.

“Senior Lan, you are free not to help but do not stop us. Don’t think that we are really afraid of you just because of your nickname of the Life Requisitor Asura. If we attacked together, you might not be a match for us.”

When Old Jiang of an ancient Noble Clan stepped forward, the situation started to turn dangerous.

Lan Chaofeng smiled coldly and said, “After my not making a move for so long, you really treat me, the Life Requisitor Asura Lan Chaofeng, like an aged person?”

Horrifying killing intent exploded from Lan Chaofeng’s body. Mountains of corpses and a sea of blood appeared behind him, distracting the four.

There were even corpses of famed Martial Emperors bobbing up and down in the sea of blood, giving off miserable shrieks.

The four immediately felt flustered. Just how many Martial Emperors did this fellow kill for him to gain such horrifying killing intent?

“Ah!”

An agonized shriek rang out. Two arms flew up into the air before Old Jiang of an ancient Noble Clan could figure out what happened, and a scarlet light flashed at his shoulders.

To the others, Lan Chaofeng had not moved at all. However, at some point in time, a dagger flickering with a cold light had appeared in his hand.

A dagger danced between Lan Chaofeng’s fingers as he said indifferently, “Chopping off your arms is a small lesson for you. You are just a group of First Heaven Martial Emperors. Killing you is no different from killing dogs to me. Scram!”

However, at this moment, a beam of starlight flashed, taking advantage of the opening created when Lan Chaofeng made a move.

Lan Chaofeng’s heart sank. Oh no! I let someone from the Cyclic Astral Palace sneak across. Based on the aura, it appears to be a Second Heaven Martial Emperor.

However, if I give chase now, the four before me will not just obediently retreat.

Lan Chaofeng found himself caught between a rock and a hard place. He could only let that Cyclic Astral Palace Martial Emperor fly to the summit.

On the summit, the voice in Xiao Chen’s heart continued to shout, containing strong temptation, I should become a demon, I should become a demon. The voice wanted to make Xiao Chen personally say those words.

A boundless hatred filled Xiao Chen with killing intent. This killing intent pushed him into taking half a step into the deep abyss, into becoming a demon.

The many historical records of outstanding talents ending up in a state of Berserking Qi Deviation and falling into the Demonic Dao were mostly because they did not maintain their mental states as they grew stronger. They ended up losing their way in the face of desire.

After Xiao Chen questioned himself earlier, he concluded that his mental state was much stronger than that of people of the same generation. It was even stronger than that of some of the people of the older generation.

However, he had not expected the heart demon from refining seven Peak Grade Demon Fiend Rocks at the same time to be so strong. It caught him off guard, and he fell for it. There was no time for him to prepare at all.

The tiny hatred in the depths of his heart ended up growing boundlessly large, materializing into a surging killing intent.

Right now, if Xiao Chen took one more step forward, he would no longer be able to return.

Furthermore, at this moment, his heart was completely suppressed. Although there was still a faint trace of rationality making a final struggle, preventing him from saying that “I should become a demon,” if there was any external interference, that weak resistance would lose focus and crumble with just one wave.

Ao Jiao paced anxiously in the Immortal Spirit Ring, unable to think of any good ideas. At this moment, no one could help Xiao Chen. He could only rely on his own willpower.

However, Xiao Chen’s willpower had enjoyed success in every venture so far. This was the first time it encountered such a grim test. There was the possibility of it failing at any moment.

What to do? What to do? No matter how hard Ao Jiao thought, she could not come up with a good idea.

Refining seven Peak Grade Demon Fiend Rocks at the same time. Since ancient times, no one had ever been that bold. Even those lunatics would not dare to do it.

At this critical moment, Xiao Chen’s peak will of thunder suddenly let out a loud crack of thunder. The strong might of lightning suddenly exploded in the sea of consciousness.

The will of thunder, which was only one step shy of becoming an Innate Thunder Crystal, let out its own furious roar at this point.

In the face of this explosion of lightning, the tempting voice in Xiao Chen’s heart paused shortly.

The loud thunder could tear the eardrums, causing one to shiver from the bottom of their heart. However, to Xiao Chen, this was as pleasant as celestial music. His confused and chaotic heart finally gained a moment of silence.

Several warm scenes appeared in Xiao Chen’s mind: learning from Liu Ruyue on Qingyun Peak, going through various events in his pursuit of the Saber Dao, the many disciples of the Xiao Clan begging for mercy for Xiao Chen on their knees in Mohe City…

The Thunder Sovereign appearing at his King conferral ceremony and personally saving him from the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign.

The looks brimming with respect and longing from his companions on Heavenly Star Island…

Actually, I have never been alone on my path.

Amid the strange phenomena, the killing intent in Xiao Chen’s eyes retreated like the receding tide. His hatred slowly disappeared. Cold sweat flowed on his forehead as he remembered what just happened, feeling very afraid.

“How dangerous! It did not give me any time to prepare at all. If not for the will of thunder shocking the baleful aura still at the critical moment, the consequences would have been dire.”

In the first place, Xiao Chen’s mental state was not poor. It was just that the heart demon was too strong, not giving him any time at all to prepare.

As long as Xiao Chen got a breather, given his mental state and strong Mental Energy, he could regain the clarity of his heart.

When the thousands of demons in front saw Xiao Chen awaken, they turned into all sorts of illusions and auditory hallucinations, trying to pull him back to the brink of massacre.
