Chapter 1322: Fire Dragon Tribulation Appears!

Xiao Chen looked back and saw an exquisite figure on an azure Profound Sun Bird several tens of kilometers away. This figure moved about in the air, sending out many arrows smoothly like they were a river of flowing water.

This barrage forced Tian Youxi and the others back continuously. Soon, they had retreated to the sea.

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. "Emperor Yi Shooting Sun Bow. First Senior Sister is here!"

Seeing Xiao Chen\'s smile, Shui Lingling, who was on the Profound Sun Bird, nodded gently. Tian Youxi and the others could not do anything as she pressed over inexorably.

Frustrated, the White Tiger Holy Son, Xia Houjue, threatened through gritted teeth, "Shui Lingling, don\'t ever let me get near you!"

The reply to that was an even faster and more ruthless arrow. Xia Houjue stretched out a finger and shattered it with a prod. Then, he quickly backed off.

"Rumble…!" Huge waves roared on the sea as pillars of waves shot up.

The group was forced farther and farther away. By the time Shui Lingling landed beside Xiao Chen, the group had already retreated hundreds of kilometers.

"First Senior Sister, why are you here?" Xiao Chen asked joyfully.

If not for Shui Lingling, Xiao Chen really would not know what to do. The Keepers of Light of the Deity Race worked very well together. Furthermore, they had honed their sharpness through experiential training in the Astral Battlefield.

If the two sides truly fought, Xiao Chen would not fear it. However, he would not have been able to avoid being delayed for some time.

During this period, Tian Youxi and Xia Houjue would have been able to do many things to interfere with and spoil Elder Qin\'s tribulation.

With the arrival of Shui Lingling, the situation immediately turned around, putting the initiative in Xiao Chen\'s hand.

Shui Lingling revealed a gentle smile. "Master told me to come. He knew that when Elder Qin undergoes his tribulation, the Heaven Abandoning Deity Sovereign and the Three Holy Lands will definitely make a move. So, he got me to bring the Emperor Yi Shooting Sun Bow and rush over."

Feeling doubtful, Xiao Chen asked, "Doesn\'t this bow lack an Item Spirit?"

Shui Lingling giggled happily as she toyed with the bow in her hand. She said joyfully, "Hehe! Master reforged it for me already. Now, it already has about seventy or eighty percent of a Transcendent Divine Weapon\'s might. However, I am able to use the Profound Martial Technique that came with the bow, the Sun Shooting Arrow, only three times."

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "That\'s enough. Right now, the other party is in chaos. The initiative is in our hands."

Huge waves surged as Tian Youxi led the twelve Keepers, as well as Xia Houjue and Feng Wuji, out of the waves and landed on the island once again.

However, at this point, they had lost all momentum; their earlier calmness and initiative were gone. Now, they appeared to be in rather sorry states.

Tian Youxi, Xia Houjue, and Feng Wuji were still fine, entirely unscathed. However, the twelve Keepers looked quite miserable. Arrow wounds riddled their bodies, dripping blood everywhere.

Seeing Xia Houjue, Shui Lingling scolded him with a stern expression, "Xia Houjue, are you really that shameless? Back then, you were the ones repeatedly pressuring my junior brother Xiao Chen. Now, after failing, you blame Xiao Chen for it? Also, Nuan Muyun clearly died to save you. You were the useless one. How can you blame my junior brother?"

Xia Houjue retorted coldly, "There is no need for you to bother about my matters. You won\'t be able to remain cocky for long. The Supreme Sky Sect will soon suffer from a great disaster. Just you wait."

Shui Lingling glared at the Holy Sons. "You guys really stuck your noses up so high, they are already higher than your eyes. Even after becoming the lackeys of the Deity Race, you are so cocky. Xia Houjue, Feng Wuji, have you forgotten the days we fought side by side in the Profound Domain against Di Wuque?"

This reminder stunned both Feng Wuji and Xia Houjue. They had not expected Shui Lingling to bring up the past.

Once upon a time, Shui Lingling, An Junxi, and five others were known as the Tianwu Domain\'s seven giants. Feng Wuji and Xia Houjue were two of the Three Holy Scions, remote existences above the seven giants.

When recalling the past, Feng Wuji and Xia Houjue were both dumbfounded. Xia Houjue even went into something of a daze.

When Tian Youxi saw this, she thought to herself. Oh no! This woman is too incredible. She even managed to make Xia Houjue waver.

"Shui Lingling, times have changed. Now, the momentum of the Deity Dao Union is set. The Divine Son, Di Wuque, has comprehended the Deity Race\'s ancient canon. Soon, he will reach the heavens in a single step. Only the Deity Dao Union is moving forward with the times!" Tian Youxi said calmly. "Even if you rely on a Divine Weapon\'s power to force us back, it will make no difference."

Shui Lingling glanced at Tian Youxi and smiled faintly. "Don\'t bother saying such reasons to me. What I know is that Di Wuque, as a man, is hiding and not daring to show himself, making a woman like you fight for him. This is the sign of a coward. Even if he climbs to the heavens in one step, this will be a black mark against him.

"Furthermore, you are no better. You say that I am relying on the power of my Divine Weapon? If you are that capable, go get your man to give you one! However, he can\'t, so you can only envy me. Even after watching me blast your warship apart, you can\'t do anything!"

Shui Lingling\'s final words were filled with mockery. However, every point she made was a fact. Tian Youxi was incredibly frustrated. Her breathing turned ragged, her chest rising and falling irregularly. She was clearly losing control over her emotions. "You…you…"

Now that Shui Lingling held the upper hand, she did not hold back. She snorted coldly. "What are you saying \'you\' for? Am I not right? If you are capable enough, then go and call out Di Wuque. If you are that capable, then get Di Wuque to give you a weapon from the Divine Weapon Ranking. If not, then scram!

"Trying to use the fact that you have many people to bully one of our elders, who is undergoing his tribulation, how is that being capable?!"

These words made Xia Houjue and Feng Wuji blush slightly in extreme embarrassment.

However, the twelve injured Keepers could not endure seeing the Divine Daughter being bullied like this. They stepped forward and soared into the air. "How dare you be so rude to the Divine Daughter?!"

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. "With me around, you can forget about being rude to my senior sister!"

He stepped forward and drew his saber from its scabbard—the first time he drew his saber on this island. The instant he did so, he spread out his Saber Domain. Then, he ignited the three sunlike spots of resplendent Saber Energy in his sea of consciousness.

"Xiu!"

Instantly, the light on Xiao Chen\'s body became extremely intense, causing the surrounding one kilometer to lose their color. When the glare vanished, the twelve Keepers, who were already injured in the first place, went flying back and vomited blood; Xiao Chen had knocked all of them back.

Saber Energy was one of Xiao Chen\'s three great trump cards. For the sake of instantly knocking back the twelve Keepers and intimidating the other side, he had no choice but to use it.

The expressions of Tian Youxi and the others changed. They suddenly felt that such close proximity to Xiao Chen was very dangerous, so they retreated quickly.

Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and looked at Tian Youxi. "Senior Lan possesses a strength that daunts Sovereign Martial Emperors. He will not fall so quickly. Tian Youxi, you do not have any more opportunities. Go back!"

He shifted his gaze to Xia Houjue and said softly, "Xia Houjue, you once stood at the top, called a powerful outstanding talent. Even though you are now on the Deity Race\'s side, I ask that you do not blemish the words \'outstanding talent.\' Do not forget the glory you once had. If you believe that Nuan Muyun\'s death is due to me, then I\'ll admit to it. If you have any problems, come straight at me, not the people by me."

Xia Houjue looked at the calm Xiao Chen, who unintentionally exuded the air of a king. He could not help feeling a sense of defeat. He said sullenly, "Let\'s go. Divine Daughter, there is no need for you to use your trump card. The Three Holy Lands thank you very much for your help this time."

Feng Wuji agreed with Xia Houjue\'s statement. As both of them turned to leave, they gave Xiao Chen a profound look.

Tian Youxi stared at Shui Lingling. "In the future, when the Deity Dao Union marches on the Supreme Sky Sect, let\'s see whether you can remain as cocky as today!"

To Tian Youxi, today\'s matter was something unforgettable. Since when had she, the Divine Daughter, suffered a defeat like this at the hands of another woman?

After the group left, Xiao Chen looked at Shui Lingling and smiled. "First Senior Sister, I noticed that you are a little different today. Something about \'if you are envious, then get your man to give you a Transcendent Divine Weapon\'?"

Shui Lingling\'s earlier air suddenly vanished. Now, she smiled abashedly. "Sorry, I accidentally took advantage of you."

Xiao Chen felt somewhat embarrassed in his heart. This was indeed his first senior sister. He remembered her hounding a certain someone—for several days and nights in the Savage Battlefield—into complete submission.

The intense fluctuations in the sky came to a stop as the Deity Race Martial Emperor pulled himself out of the battle and left. Lan Chaofeng put away his dagger and landed beside Xiao Chen.

Before the light ring around Elder Qin, who was on the Emperor\'s Road, broke, he managed to clear the final step of the one thousand steps.

"He cleared it!" Shui Lingling said with a trace of joy.

After Xiao Chen saw that, he heaved a sigh of relief. It was as Lan Chaofeng said. As long as the pressure from external factors could be dealt with, Elder Qin stood a high chance of clearing his Great Tribulation of wind and fire.

After all, Elder Qin\'s Great Tribulation of wind and fire was only the most ordinary one. His accumulations were not considered poor.

Even so, by the time Elder Qin reached the Emperor\'s Door, he was already so weak, left with only half a breath. His aura wavered as if it would collapse at any moment.

One thousand steps. Each step a hurdle, each step a tribulation.

Along the way, Xiao Chen saw many scenes that gave him a sour feeling in his heart, moving him. However, after putting in so much effort and experiencing so much bitterness, Elder Qin got his wish, and his lifespan increased to two thousand years.

"Hu! Hu!"

Just as Elder Qin\'s hand was about to touch the Emperor\'s Door, flaming clouds suddenly appeared in the sky. Layers of blazing flames covered the sky and blocked out the sun.

The unending flaming clouds were like waves, rising and falling in irregular patterns—a sea of fire turned upside down like a reflection of the sea in the sky.

Xiao Chen revealed confusion on his face. He felt that something was wrong. "Senior Lan, what\'s that?"

Lan Chaofeng\'s expression changed immediately. He said in extreme shock. "That is impossible. This is a Fire Dragon Tribulation. It is extremely rare and normally appears for outstanding talents or when there is a golden Emperor\'s Road."

Right after Lan Chaofeng spoke, the flaming clouds quickly massed together.

Soon, the silhouette of a huge dragon appeared in the sky. It reared its head and roared, causing the entire sky to tremble endlessly.

This…

Xiao Chen felt helpless. One could rely only on themselves for the Great Tribulation of wind and fire. Others could not help. Otherwise, they would suffer the punishment of the Heavenly Dao, killing both of them.

Such a result caused Shui Lingling, who had rushed over from far away, to turn sullen as she stared at this dragon in disbelief.

Above the sea, Xia Houjue and the others had already gone a long distance away. However, when they saw the fire dragon appear, it stunned all of them.

After a while, Xia Houjue turned joyful. "It is a Fire Dragon Tribulation. It looks like heaven wants to break the Dragon\'s Gate\'s Luck. The Fire Dragon Tribulation is very rare on the Emperor\'s Road. Even when outstanding talents undergo their tribulations, it is still very rare to run into one. Unexpectedly, that Elder Qin did."
