Chapter 1140: Never-Changing Character

Seven days later, the clouds below the flood dragon war chariot slowly darkened until they eventually were black.

Xiao Chen knew that this meant he had reached the border of the Black Sea. The Black Water Sea should not be far off.

With that thought, he put away the flood dragon war chariot. He planned to travel alone from here on.

After all, there were many experts in the Black Sea. This sea region, which was chaotic and rich in resources, held a great attraction to experts. Xiao Chen’s strength was far from sufficient for moving around unhindered in a tyrannical manner. It was best for him to be more low-profile.

According to Jin Dabao, Ba Tu was not in the Black Water Sea but the Dark Sea, the core of the entire Black Sea.

Hence, Xiao Chen did not intend to stay in this Black Water Sea for long. If nothing unexpected happened, this would just be a transit point for him to familiarize himself with the Black Sea’s environment.

After breaking through the clouds, Xiao Chen immediately came under the assault of all sorts of negative emotions as he breathed: irritation, fury, bloodlust, and many others.

Xiao Chen kept his mind clear. His saber soul flashed as he used his strong will to eliminate all these negative emotions, leaving none in his body.

“Dang! Dang!”

As Xiao Chen headed for the surface of the sea, the sounds of fighting reached his ears. He looked over and discovered a merchant fleet surrounded and under attack.

This fleet was rather large. The merchant ships were all Sage Grade, and there were ten of them. The flagship was a King Grade warship. However, the situation did not seem favorable to them.

A dense cluster of small pirate ships surrounded the entire merchant group. Figures projecting baleful auras leaped out and charged towards the merchant ships.

A ferocious pirate on the merchant group’s flagship led some others in surrounding a middle-aged man, clearly holding the upper hand.

Xiao Chen had long heard of the chaos in the Black Sea. However, he had not expected to run into a group of merchants being robbed shortly after his arrival at the border.

After observing for a while, Xiao Chen saw that this group of pirates was not very strong. The ferocious pirate fighting on the flagship appeared to be the pirate leader, but he was only a Great Perfection quasi-Emperor.

After a while, Xiao Chen made a decision. Although Xiao Chen was not a fool that let his emotions lead him around, charging in to save a stranger without a care for the situation when seeing something like this, if there was anything he could do to help, he would. After all, this group of pirates was clearly not good people.

Xiao Chen’s figure vanished from his original position. Then, he appeared above the flagship. Now, he was dressed in clean white robes, holding his Lunar Shadow Saber.

When the two sides saw this person that suddenly appeared, their expressions changed at the same time. They both stopped and moved back.

The difference was that the middle-aged man showed an expression of surprise while the pirate leader showed murderous intent and rage.

The pirate leader held a heavy, scarlet, serrated saber as he looked at Xiao Chen and said, “Where did this brat come from? Don’t you know the rules of the Black Sea? Anyone who sees that pirates attacked yet dares to help will become wanted by all the pirates in the entire Black Sea.”

This statement stunned Xiao Chen somewhat. Then, he laughed in his heart. This is interesting!

In other places, it is the pirates who are wanted. However, the rules of this place are reversed. The pirates have the upper hand and can actually list others as wanted.

“Little Brother, the Black Sea does indeed have such a rule. The pirate faction is powerful. Once wanted, you will find it very difficult to travel around the five sea domains of the Black Sea. I appreciate your kindness, but there is no need for you to get in trouble.”

The middle-aged man could tell that Xiao Chen’s cultivation was pretty high, and Xiao Chen was still quite young. He should be an outstanding talent of a Holy Land or Noble Clan that did not know the rules of the Black Sea. Hence, the middle-aged man sighed and advised Xiao Chen to leave.

The pirate leader laughed coldly and said rudely. “Now that you know the rule, quickly scram!”

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “This is the first I’ve heard of this rule. However, if you die, then you can’t list me as wanted, right?”

The pirate leader guffawed and said, “You are already a Great Perfection quasi-Emperor at such a young age. You must be from some big faction or the successor of a Holy Land. Given that it was hard for you to cultivate to this extent, I was a little more polite to you. To think you would actually throw your weight around instead!

“The Black Sea is different from the other places. I will only give you this advice: all the quasi-Emperors should not be offended!”

The pirate leader shouted a war cry and charged at Xiao Chen.

The pirate leader’s eyes turned scarlet. Everywhere he passed, wolf howls resounded, and a huge scarlet wolf image appeared behind him.

Unexpectedly, this pirate leader was from the Fiend Race. Furthermore, it seemed like his bloodline mutated and was not of a pure Heavenly Wolf Race pedigree. Otherwise, he would be even more powerful.

This saber strike gave off an overwhelming aura. The wolf howls were even more horrifying. The attack was extremely ferocious; just the baleful aura that flowed out made people tremble in fear.

“Dang!”

Nobody saw how Xiao Chen moved. However, a clear dragon roar resounded, and he instantly drew the Lunar Shadow Saber, blocking the approaching serrated saber.

The dragon roar clashed with the wolf howl. However, the two were about equal. Xiao Chen’s Dragon Might did not manage to intimidate the scarlet wolf.

Xiao Chen’s eyes lit up. It was said that in the oceanic world, the Black Sea was the best place for quasi-Emperors to train. For the sake of raising their strength, quasi-Emperors from various places would come here for experiential training.

There were also many desperate criminals staying in the region. Their presence made the situation in the Black Sea even more horrifying.

The quasi-Emperors rarely seen in the outside world could be said to be very common here, so many that they were uncountable.

Given today, it looked like this rumor was true. This Great Perfection quasi-Emperor before Xiao Chen give off a very different feeling. He was much more powerful than the Great Perfection quasi-Emperors brought up in the sects.

However, the more powerful, the better. This way, he would have a challenge.

Xiao Chen turned around. As he pulled back the Lunar Shadow Saber, he executed Flawless Bright Moon. Gentle moonlight appeared on the slender saber.

“You do possess some strength. No wonder you dare to be so arrogant!”

The pirate leader laughed strangely and somersaulted in the air. With every spin, he hacked once. When the saber light flashed, a wolf image appeared. In the blink of an eye, he completed a hundred spins.

With one hundred saber strikes, one hundred wolves moved out, completely suppressing Xiao Chen’s Flawless Bright Moon and forcing Xiao Chen to retreat a hundred steps.

“Brat, now do you understand that there are some troubles that you should not stick your nose into? Haha! However, there is no such thing as medicine for regret in this world. I will defeat you, and you will be hunted down!”

The pirate leader laughed maniacally and suddenly revealed his true body. He turned into a scarlet wolf standing upright. Then, he howled as he hacked down with great force. The hundred wolf-shaped saber lights immediately flew at Xiao Chen.

The sharp aura was like a pack of wolves hunting, dashing on a boundless plain, with Xiao Chen as a helpless lamb.

Xiao Chen focused his gaze and found something extraordinary about this move. Every scarlet wolf was solid.

That was not all. It seemed like the scarlet wolves had blood and life in them, surging with energy. All the wolves continuously absorbed the berserk massacre Qi unique to the Black Sea. With every passing second, their bodies grew larger.

By the time these wolves arrived before Xiao Chen, they were already as large as mountains. Their bodies also mutated to something extremely horrifying. Their fur turned into sharp, scarlet knives, and their eyes were bloodshot.

“It’s over!”

Seeing the wolf pack swallow up Xiao Chen, the middle-aged quasi-Emperor of the merchant fleet showed a look of bitterness. Surprisingly, the mission this time was quite difficult. Not only would he die here, but he also involved an outstanding young talent.

This was just the periphery of the Black Water Sea, and this middle-aged quasi-Emperor ran into the infamous Scarlet Wolf Pirates. He cursed his bad luck this time.

“Boom!”

Just when the middle-aged man thought that Xiao Chen would be left without a corpse after being swallowed up by the pack of wolves, numerous arcs of intense electric light burst out from the pack of wolves. Each arc radiated horrifying saber intent.

“This is a saber soul. The saber Qi contains a soul within itself. Furthermore, it carries the might of a will. Otherwise, the saber intent that burst out would not be this horrifying,” the middle-aged man muttered to himself. His eyes widened with incredulous shock. Just where is this bladesman from? This saber soul is not much weaker than those of the famous bladesmen of the older generation.

Miserable cries resounded. The pack of wolves yowled in agony. Xiao Chen broke its momentum, but he did not stop moving, continuing to attack and preparing to settle this with one blow.

Many azure dragon-shaped saber Qi surged out from Xiao Chen’s body. In the end, eighteen Azure Dragons circled him and roared ferociously, causing the sky to change color. Lightning flashed and thunder boomed. All sorts of mysterious phenomena appeared.

“Subduing Dragon Profound Slash!”

Xiao Chen hacked down with the saber, and the eighteen Azure Dragons entered the saber, forming an azure saber light that connected the sky to the sea. The lightning saber Qi swept away the injured scarlet wolves like it was sweeping away fallen leaves, tearing them into pieces.

When the bodies of the scarlet wolves split apart, blood could even be seen spurting out. Only after the electricity exploded did they vanish.

This scene already surpassed the boundaries of a mysterious phenomenon. This pirate leader had to have infused his own Qi and blood into this move.

If an ordinary person executed this move, they would probably die from blood loss before they could finish it. Most likely, this pirate leader could execute the move only after turning into his Fiend form.

The saber light did not lose any power at all as it continued towards the pirate leader’s head.

The pirate leader tried to parry with his saber, but the might of Xiao Chen’s move was too great. It contained all the profoundness of the Dragon Subduing Slash, so how could he block it after losing so much Qi and blood?

“Ka ca!” The serrated saber instantly snapped. The saber light continued chopping down and bisected the pirate leader lengthwise.

However, the pirate leader was not dead yet. Blood still connect the two halves, which were trying to merge back together. Given time, the two halves could reconnect.

“You really have a strong lifeforce. However, since you made a move already, I can’t let you live.”

Using the Thunder Dragon Steps, Xiao Chen arrived before the pirate leader while standing on a dragon amid thunder and lightning. The might of the lightning saber soul filled the saber as he chopped down on the pirate leader’s body nine times.

After nine attacks, an electric light burst out and reduced the pirate leader’s body to ashes, ensuring he could not come back to life.

With their leader killed, the remaining pirates all started to flee in a panic. The danger plaguing the merchant fleet was resolved for now. action

Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and suddenly frowned. He felt a murderous gaze from fifty kilometers away. Even at that distance, it made his hair stand on end.

The owner of this gaze was at the very least a Consummation quasi-Emperor.
