Chapter 448: 226 Mountain King Chen Xiu_2

"This sword surpasses my usual limits, it is my most powerful move... Even Lord Ghost Face would not dare to take it head-on!"

"It should have succeeded!"

Crying Sword Feng Xun breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly the air in front of him compressed, and an unharmed gigantic figure emerged from within.

"No wounds?!"

His pupils shrank as he swiftly scanned the opponent’s entire body.

But he couldn’t find any marks from the wailing sword strike he had just delivered.

"You..."

"Boom!"

Before Feng Xun could finish his words, the ground and the surrounding air trembled with a thunderous shake. A black-red giant figure suddenly leapt ten meters, appearing right in front of Feng Xun. The whole person was in a sloping forward charge, with the right fist charging up, the muscles and veins on the arm bulging. Due to the high speed, the blurred face wasn’t clear, only a very ferocious smile could be seen.

"Boom!!!"

The right arm was drawn like a full moon, the punch was earth-shattering!

"Thud!!!"

Crying Sword Feng Xun was sent flying like riding the clouds, his body nearly breaking apart, his back arched, head and feet slashed across. Swift afterimages sliced through the air, finally landing like skimming a stone.

Bouncing up and falling several times, he heavily crashed into a corner of the warehouse wall.

In mid-air, a curved spear sword spiraled down.

It landed right beside his body, piercing the concrete floor.

Five meters away, Ghost Snake Xie Yang stood there, his emotions obscure. He looked at the pathetic figure of Crying Sword Feng Xun with a complex expression, murmuring to himself, "I already told you, but you just wouldn’t listen. Alas, this is what happens when you challenge the authority and orders of superiors..."

"Thud!"

Amid the white fog, a huge glowing-hot foot stomped on the ground.

Bai Xiao pushed his giant figure through the swirling airflow around him.

He glanced at Feng Xun lying on the ground like a dead dog in the distance, then slowly turned around, his power receding like the tide, and said expressionlessly.

"Take him away."

Ghost Snake Xie Yang hurriedly replied: "Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, his gaze was filled with the gradually distancing tall dark silhouette. It might have been an illusion, but Ghost Snake Xie Yang weirdly saw, what appeared to be dragon and elephant shadows roaring and confronting each other over that silhouette.

The breath akin to ancient ferocious beasts, shockingly fearful.

"Master’s strength seems to have improved again!"

He lifted his head, his eyes blazing with fervor and admiration.

"I must follow in Master’s footsteps and not get left too far behind!"

Ghost Snake Xie Yang silently made up his mind.

Ten minutes later, in a forest next to a suburban warehouse, Bai Xiao slowly got up. The terrifying magnetic field floating on his body instantly retracted back inside.

His gaze flickered slightly.

This time, it was a test of his own improved strength. Especially after the integration of the three Hard Skills and Dragon Elephant Rock Skill, as well as the second-stage Burst State transformation into Dragon Bone Body. As for the Giant Statue Technique’s partial gigantism feature, it was just an impromptu trial. From the fight just now, Bai Xiao had essentially mastered the post-evolution features of his Cultivation Technique and identified concrete methods.

Moreover, he had gained a clearer understanding of his own strength.

"Crying Sword Feng Xun, is basically on par with the Nanjiang Twin Dragons. That limit-breaking strike just now was almost equivalent to Ye Meng’s Five-pointed Star Fall. Yet, in my Stone Dragon Body state, it was still ineffective. Yesterday, when I received the Five-pointed Star Fall in my Ba Snake Body, I also suffered a superficial wound. But in the Stone Dragon Body, it was merely a white mark..."

"Certainly, the double transformation’s defensive power has significantly increased!"

"My strength was already beyond Nanjiang Twin Dragons, now with another significant improvement, I wonder if I can match the Eastern Seven Stars? Luckily, Fang Chao mentioned he would introduce me tomorrow to one of the Eastern Seven Stars, Mountain King Chen Xiu. Perhaps, I can use that opportunity to test Mountain King Chen Xiu’s strength, as well as understand what this so-called Extreme Realm really is?"

Bai Xiao was deep in thought, and soon came back to his senses.

Beside him, Crying Sword Feng Xun had already awakened. He stood up shakily, sensing the changes in his body and mind, a trace of astonishment appearing in his eyes. However, Feng Xun’s character was much more mature and steady compared to Xie Yang, so he did not burst into mad laughter and joy like Xie Yang did after evolving his Secret Martial.

He took a deep breath.

Looking at Bai Xiao standing nearby with a strong stature.

There was an inexplicable magnetic field firmly attracting Feng Xun’s attention.

"Thank you, my lord, for your mercy, thank you for your generous gift!"

"I will have my brother come immediately, and join under your command!"

Bai Xiao’s gaze slightly drifted over, with the dim sky casting his profound face into deep shadows, only his eyes blazing red.

"Not just your brother..."

Bai Xiao suddenly clenched his right fist, his veins bulging.

A pale white airflow crazily gushed out between his fingers with a bang.

"What I want is the entire Crimson Ghost Face Organization!"

He slowly turned around, looking at the second and third in command of the Ghost Face Organization, whom he had subdued, and nodded. The situation was as if both the second and third in command had defected, becoming his people. Bai Xiao planned to start a new venture within the Crimson Ghost Face, leveraging the shell for listings. By the time Lord Ghost Face reacted, he would already be alone, left fighting for that dream, the entire organization full of traitors.

"Open a martial arts school?"

"Hehe, such challenging tasks should be left to me!"

Bai Xiao chuckled lightly.

He walked away, disappearing into the woods under their watchful eyes.

East Sea City, Hanhai Five-star Hotel.

Members of the Fierce Bird Sect occupied half of the rooms on the fourth floor.

Bai Xiao took a cold shower, stepping out from the bathroom, and pulled back the delicately printed white curtains to reveal large floor-to-ceiling windows.

Outside, the city lights twinkled, colorful and brilliant. The glass of tall buildings under the night’s golden-orange lights shimmered like crystal. The giant screen displayed celebrity advertisements. Beautiful women and handsome men stood together, their faces beaming with youthful smiles.

As the most developed city in the east, East Sea City can be called a modern metropolis, with a completely planned urban cluster. Steel and concrete buildings are everywhere, the neon lights flicker at night, and the bright lights on the overpasses flow like water, distinctly exuding a cyberpunk vibe.

"They say that the Metal Council, those who pilot Mechas, have tremendous power here? The last Mecha I encountered must have been the lowest grade. I wonder to what extent a powerful metal Mecha can reach?"

Bai Xiao’s strong upper body was bare as he looked out the window for a while.

Then, he withdrew his gaze and walked towards the bedside.

He picked up a stack of A4 paper compiled information and started reading.

This was about the contenders of great interest and caution in the Eastern Dark World fighting competition, who might bring significant trouble during the matches.

The pages rustled as he flipped through them.

Suddenly, he stopped on the last two pages, his gaze fixed.

Seven names stood out, their astonishing and terrifying records echoing through the Eastern Secret Martial World, an undefeated myth except among themselves!

"Mountain King Chen Xiu, Demon Ghost Face, Long Gu Haoli, Wind of Breath..."

Bai Xiao’s gaze slowly scanned over, a mysterious fiery current pulsing in his chest with each heartbeat, thumping. A sudden smile appeared on his lips.

Under the light, his teeth eerily fierce.

Time flew by, the moon set and the sun rose, early the next morning.

Bai Xiao got up, had a hearty breakfast, and soon received a text message from Fang Chao. It seemed he had already made an appointment with Mountain King Chen Xiu in the morning.
