Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation-Novel2

Chapter 1421: Fleeing by a Fluke

As the Icy Demon Flame Sword stabbed deeper into the ground, cold Qi permeated into the depths.

The ground hardened into pieces of ice, layer by layer. The flat plains turned into frozen ground from the inside out, spreading out for five thousand kilometers.

The white-clad Snow Demon wanted to kill Xiao Chen here and did not hold back at all. As he stood on the huge Icy Demon Flame Sword, his expression remain frosty, showing no emotion.

The Blood Shadow Sovereign and the Iron Demon each guarded a direction. They showed grave expressions, not daring to relax at all, prepared to prevent Xiao Chen from breaking out of the ground at any time.

Although the ground already froze and contained a startling amount of cold Qi, there was still a small chance of Xiao Chen escaping. Hence, the two did not relax at all.

When a lion hunted, it used its full power even for a rabbit. Despite holding an overwhelming advantage, these three Eighth Heaven Martial Emperors did not show any arrogance at all.

As the saying goes, "old ginger is spicier." Their mental state was far from what those young Martial Emperors could compare to.

Deep in the ground, within the war chariot, Xiao Chen's entire body was covered in a layer of frost. His lips were scarily pale. A trickle of blood could be seen on his frost-covered lips, looking very eye-catching.

This wound came from that Eighth Heaven Martial Emperor Iron Demon's drop from the sky.

Iron Demons possessed great strength; Xiao Chen had already experienced this before. This time, he had truly been careless. Unexpectedly, the other party had such a high evaluation of him, actually sending three Eighth Heaven Martial Emperors.

The more serious issue was the cold Qi in Xiao Chen's body. That white-clad Snow Demon was a Sovereign Martial Emperor who comprehended the Ice Domain.

Since Xiao Chen made his debut as the Shadowless Saber Sovereign, this was the greatest danger he experienced. It was no exaggeration to say that his life hung by a thread.

What should I do?

Various stratagems flashed in Xiao Chen's mind, but he quickly rejected them. There was not much time, but his thoughts were as quick as lightning, as he maintained his calm like before.

He closed his eyes and quickly thought, I have to get out first.

Otherwise, if I remain trapped here, I will definitely die. However, cold Qi permeates the entire place, and the ground is as hard as metal, like a cage.

Suddenly, Xiao Chen thought of an idea. He opened his eyes, and a bright light flashed in them. Then, a clump of flame appeared in his hand—the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame!

On the ground above, the Iron Demon laughed and said, "It looks like he won't be coming up. This is good. He died a very miserable death."

The Blood Shadow Sovereign also released his bated breath. If the Shadowless Saber Sovereign could charge out, he would have done so long ago. The cold Qi became stronger and stronger. Now, the ground was so hard that even the Blood Shadow Sovereign would have a problem. The Shadowless Saber Sovereign already missed his best chance to get out.

However, all this was within the plan. The moment the Iron Demon dropped from the sky with his punch was the start of killing the Shadowless Saber Sovereign.

While the Iron Demon looked around, he discovered that there was something sticky on the ground. On further scrutiny, he found that it was water; it was really strange.

"Hey, where did this water come from?" action

"Water?"

The Blood Shadow Sovereign's expression changed drastically. How could there be water? His old friend Bing Ling ranked among the top ten Snow Demons, yet the ground that Bing Ling's cold Qi froze could actually melt enough to discharge water.

On the Icy Demon Flame Sword, the white-clad Snow Demon exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible! Who can melt my cold Qi? It is not like that Shadowless Saber Sovereign cultivates the Fire Dao—"

"Boom!"

Before the white-clad Snow Demon finished speaking, there was a violent report. With the Icy Demon Flame Sword as the center, the ground for five thousand kilometers around exploded.

The Icy Demon Flame Sword shattered into many pieces, and the Icy Demon Flame that formed the sword gathered in the white-clad Snow Demon's palm. He flung his long sleeves out and swept aside the ice shards containing saber intent.

When the dust cleared and the ice melted, a throne appeared before the three. The Shadowless Saber Sovereign sat on the throne, wearing a mask.

"Die!"

A murderous intent flashed in the white-clad Snow Demon's eyes. Then the Icy Demon Flame in his palm transformed, materializing a Deep Abyss Demonic World Demonic Beast that looked like a sinister dog. It roared and charged at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen waved his palm, and the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame went forward in a flash of cold light. Then, something strange happened.

The Heavenly Snow Divine Flame instantly burned the black Demonic Beast and revealed the Origin Flame of the Icy Demon Flame. The Icy Demon Flame's Origin Flame struggled continuously, trying to escape the torture of the Heavenly Snow Divine Flame.

On the other side, the Iron Demon's and the Blood Shadow Sovereign's attacks instantly arrived.

The Blood Shadow Sovereign held a scarlet sword, thrusting it forward extremely quickly and gracefully. Sword intent surged, and the surrounding space buzzed loudly in response. The entire place trembled—and this was just the might of one sword strike.

On the throne, Xiao Chen maintained his calm. The Lunar True Flame and Solar True Flame flew out of his eyes. Then, he tapped with his left hand, and out of nowhere, the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram blocked this sword strike.

While the Taiji Yinyang Flame Diagram materialized, Xiao Chen's right hand did not remain idle, ferociously slapping the black dragon armrest.

The seven Divine Weapons unsheathed at the same time, flying into the air. "Dang! Dang!" Metallic clangor resounded. The seven Divine Weapons ruthlessly knocked back the Iron Demon, who was trying to sneak-attack from the sky again.

The Iron Demon's landing blasted a huge crater in the ground, kicking up an enormous dust cloud.

Everything happened in merely a breath of time. The attacks of the three Sovereign Martial Emperors were all lethal and dangerous. Getting struck directly by just one could kill Xiao Chen.

However, Xiao Chen managed to block all of them in the end!

"Surely as the lush mountains do not change and the rivers continue to flow, we will definitely meet again. I will repay everything from today sooner or later," Xiao Chen said expressionlessly.

"Whoosh!" The throne split into three and flew into the distance.

The Iron Demon climbed out of the pit and saw the throne split into three. Feeling dazzled, he asked in confusion, "How come there are three?"

"Damn it. We let him run!" the Blood Shadow Sovereign said through gritted teeth, furious.

The white-clad Snow Demon withdrew his icy flame, his heart pounding with fear. Now, he knew how the Shadowless Saber Sovereign broke his Ice Domain.

"The flame in his hand is a flame that is even stronger than the Eternal Ice. If I am right, it should be a primal-chaos-level Flame!" The white-clad Snow Demon calmly analyzed as greed flashed in his eyes.

The Blood Shadow Sovereign said, "What should we do? He will definitely be more cautious now. With the speed of that throne, it will truly be difficult to capture him."

"The opportunity is right before us!"

The white-clad Snow Demon said, "He is a spent force. My cold Qi is not that easy to deal with. That lummox's punch is very heavy as well. Although it looked like he easily dealt with our three moves, that should be the limits of his ability."

The Blood Shadow Sovereign's eyes brightened at the white-clad Snow Demon's analysis. "Good, we split up and give chase."

"Which way should I go?" the heavy Iron Demon asked, feeling somewhat confused.

The Blood Shadow Sovereign closed his eyes and sensed his surroundings. Then, he pointed in the direction that was the least likely and said, "You head that way."

The Blood Shadow Sovereign pointed to the front. Xiao Chen would be really bold if he had chosen that direction.

"Alright!" Given a direction, the Iron Demon rejoiced. Then, he directly left in pursuit without worrying about anything else.

However, the Blood Shadow Sovereign and the white-clad Snow Demon did not move as if in tacit agreement. They did not seem to be in a rush to give chase. It was not clear what they were thinking.

After a moment of silence, the white-clad Snow Demon took out an Oath Stone and said while looking at the Blood Shadow Sovereign, "Let us each make an oath. No matter who catches the Shadowless Saber Sovereign, we do not attack to kill. We have to wait for both of us to be present before we split the treasures on him."

The Blood Shadow Sovereign smiled sinisterly. "Agreed."

After the two swore their oaths, they quickly charged forward at lightning speed, instantly overtaking the Iron Demon and causing him to look at them in marvel.

One day and one night later, the Blood Shadow Sovereign, the fastest among them, managed to reach the Shadowless Saber Sovereign and his throne first.

In the end, after a casual thrust of the sword, both the throne and the Shadowless Saber Sovereign turned into ice shards scattered on the ground.

The Blood Shadow Sovereign's excited face immediately sank. He knew he had been fooled. The true body of the Shadowless Saber Sovereign should be in the direction that the white-clad Snow Demon had taken. As for the Iron Demon's direction, he did not hold much hope.

However, the results surpassed the Blood Shadow Sovereign's expectations. Half a day later, the white-clad Snow Demon also caught up to his target and, likewise, discovered it was a clone.

After it turned dark, the two met up, and when they saw each other's disappointed expressions, they knew the result before either of them said anything.

"In the end, we let that fellow benefit. If we had delayed a little and gotten him to use the Oath Stone as well, it would have been fine!" the white-clad Snow Demon said regretfully.

Of course, the person the Snow Demon meant was the Iron Demon, whom they called a lummox earlier.

However, the Blood Shadow Sovereign did not hold much hope. Even if the Iron Demon managed to catch up, the Iron Demon would find it hard to tie down the Shadowless Saber Sovereign.

There would always be a slip despite careful planning. In the end, the Shadowless Saber Sovereign managed to flee. It would be hard to find a chance like this again in the future.
