The liver is a late bloomer!

In the Blade Realm, in Blade Lake City, Xu Chen sat at a fish pancake stall, gazing at the shimmering lake in the distance.

Your fish is ready!

Xu Chen, sitting at the stall, smelled the aroma and nodded in satisfaction.

He casually took out a small piece of immortal crystal and tossed it to the waiter beside him.

"Go and buy one of every single snack on this street!" Xu Chen said, tasting the fried fish with his chopsticks.

The waiter stared wide-eyed at the celestial crystal in his hand, which was about the size of a die.

"Sir, you don't need this much! These immortal crystals are enough to buy our entire street!" the waiter exclaimed in alarm.

"Go buy them, and distribute the extras evenly among the shops."

Before long, the small table where Xu Chen was sitting was filled with all kinds of snacks.

Enjoying the river and lake views, we savored these snacks one by one.

Pedestrians and shoppers on the street were talking about this year's Wan Dao Bei Arena Battle.

Xu Chen summarized the information he heard and was able to roughly understand the rules and procedures of the entire Ten Thousand Dao Stele Arena Battle, as well as the popular human and alien prodigies.

"Greetings, Senior Brother."

As Xu Chen was admiring the beautiful scenery, a voice rang in his ears.

Xu Chen had already sensed it when his junior brother emerged from the void.

"Sit down, let's enjoy it together~" Xu Chen nodded gently, inviting her.

Xu Chen's junior brother was a young man with handsome features, a slender figure, and waist-length hair.

Jin Shanhai sat down on a small stool, thanked him, and began to taste the snacks, his eyes occasionally glancing curiously at Xu Chen.

"I have come here with great trepidation to ask my senior brother for advice on how to deal with the arena battlefield."

As the two spoke, the surrounding space was sealed off, and from the outside, everything appeared normal for them.

"Junior brother, I really want to win so badly," Jin Shanhai said, bowing his head.

"If it were any other junior brother or senior brother who said this to me, I could only say it was a pity. Even if I did my best, I wouldn't be able to improve my combat strength much."

“But you are different.” Xu Chen looked at Jin Shanhai with calm eyes.

"You are at the Great Venerable Realm, and over the years you have been trying to make up for your shortcomings, so you have focused your main efforts on those few great immortal abilities."

"Unfortunately, the great supernatural powers of immortality are difficult to cultivate, and you don't have any special talent in this area. You're stuck at the entry level for these great supernatural powers of immortality."

Xu Chen put down his chopsticks and picked up a cold drink from the side.

With his other hand, he formed the Great Dao Dream Seal, and a dream world seed mixed with the divine source of the Great Dao condensed in his palm.

"This is the Dream Dao World Seed. I have placed three Great Dao Divine Powers and insights into it. After you integrate the seed into yourself, you will enter the Dream Dao World that I created for you to cultivate these Great Dao Divine Powers."

"After you have digested all my insights, the three great divine abilities will be able to reach a usable state, which should be of some help to your battle a year from now."

A dreamlike seed, radiating a purple glow, floats before the Golden Mountain Sea.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Jin Shan stood up solemnly and bowed deeply to Xu Chen.

"It's just a piece of cake~"

"Come on, let's continue enjoying the food."

A year passed in the blink of an eye, and an inexplicable force enveloped Xu Chen.

The world changes, and space shifts.

Xu Chen found himself in a completely different world, standing atop endless mountains.

Thirty million miles away, another powerful being from another race stood atop the mountains.

Both of them looked at each other silently.

“Heart Crystal Clan, Bai Cang,” a Great Venerable Realm alien race member hidden in the mist spoke.

"Human, Xu Chen."

At this moment, Xu Chen looked at this powerful expert from the Heart Crystal Clan with curiosity.

It wasn't because the person in front of him was very strong; on the contrary, in Xu Chen's eyes, he wasn't even as good as a small fry.

But the aura emanating from him gave Xu Chen a strange sense of familiarity.

"The Heart Crystal Clan is a race born around a supreme innate treasure called the Great Dao Heart Crystal. Once born, they possess strength beyond the Immortal Path and are proficient in a secret technique no weaker than the Great Dao Divine Power." Xu Chen secretly recalled the information about the Heart Crystal Clan. Although he didn't care about these small fry, there were still some things he needed to know.

"I've never heard of this among humans."

A crystal-clear giant axe appeared in the hands of Bai Cang of the Heart Crystal Clan, radiating an aura that seemed to cleave the heavens and earth.

"I've been traveling around for a while and only recently returned." Xu Chen had a relaxed expression on his face, but he decided to let Bai Cang make a few more moves to find out where that sense of familiarity came from.

"I see, Fellow Daoist Xu, then I apologize for offending you!"

The colossal axe cleaved fiercely towards Xu Chen, and wherever the axe blade touched, the entire space, from shallow to deep, was cleaved apart by this giant axe.

The deeper the space, the greater the power carried by the giant axe.

Just as Xu Chen was about to dodge, Bai Cang formed a hand seal and unleashed his supernatural power.

"Heart Crystal - Trapped!"

A strange but familiar force trapped Xu Chen, but in Xu Chen's eyes, the strength of this force was not much greater than that of a straw rope.

Xu Chen easily dodged it.

"I see, that explains why it felt so familiar."

"It turns out to be a supernatural power similar to the magic of a great immortal, only much more superficial, so superficial that it has only scratched the surface."

Almost the instant this supernatural power was unleashed, Xu Chen discovered the source of that sense of familiarity.

"I'll visit the Heart Crystal Clan sometime~"

A primordial spiritual treasure sword appeared in Xu Chen's hand.

The sword flashed.

Bai Cang's figure vanished into the void.

After the battle, Xu Chen was transported to a special world.

Above them were countless battle worlds, and below these worlds lay a magnificent dojo.

Several powerful alien beings have already been teleported over to the training ground.

Xu Chen glanced around and sensed that these must be the strong individuals who had won the battle.

"This fellow Daoist looks unfamiliar."

A man bathed in holy light approached.

"I've been traveling for years and only recently came back," Xu Chen replied casually.

"Isn't the area covered by the Xuanhuang Supreme Treasure enough for you to explore?"

"However, I'm also curious about the outside world. Could you tell me about it?" The man spoke very familiarly.

"Fellow Daoist, don't you think this is presumptuous?" Xu Chen glanced at the man from the Light Saint Clan.

"Anyway, your human race will be a vassal of my race from now on, so it doesn't matter whether we say it sooner or later." The man wasn't angry and looked at Xu Chen with a smile.

"It is too early for you to draw such a conclusion, fellow Daoist."

"Once your Light Saint Clan becomes a vassal of the Human Clan, come find me, and perhaps I'll be interested in telling you a story."

Xu Chen looked up at the battle world in the sky and immediately saw the battle world where Qian Yi was. At this moment, Qian Yi was facing a fierce battle, resisting the relentless bombardment of the alien saint venerable.

"Your senior brother is a master at managing the race, but he's far too weak in terms of combat strength," commented a man from the Light Saint Clan.

"But among your human race's Saint Venerable Realm experts, there aren't any particularly outstanding ones; we can only choose the best among the worst."

"To be honest, I quite admire your senior brother."

The man from the Light Saint Clan kept chattering beside Xu Chen, which annoyed Xu Chen. After leaving a trail of light, Xu Chen went to another area.

As the battle raged, worlds vanished one by one, and the number of powerful figures in the dojo below increased.

Until the last world dissipates, the battle begins the next round.

At this moment, both the human race in this Star Sea Region and the human race in the Sword Realm within the Great Dao Stele began to discuss Xu Chen's identity, fantasizing about their own race producing a powerful expert with ten consecutive victories.

In the Ten Thousand Dao Monument Arena Battle, once a race's strongest player achieves ten consecutive victories, the massive resources allocated to them are closely related to every human being.

"Senior Brother lost in the first match, that's not a good sign~" Xu Chen sighed slightly, but that didn't stop him from killing through the heavens.

The second battle then ensued.

When Xu Chen arrived at a sea area, he suddenly discovered that his opponent in the second match was that talkative man from the Light Saint Clan.

"Fellow Daoist, we are destined to meet!"

“After you become vassals of the human race, and my Holy Race becomes a vassal, I am willing to form a master-servant contract with you.”

"When the time comes, I will be your master and you your servant, and I will treat you well."

The man from the Light Saint Clan looked generous.

Xu Chen didn't bother with any more words. He unleashed a wave of devouring power, completely consuming the rambling Light Saint Clan man.

After the second battle ended, Xu Chen was teleported to the dojo.

At this moment, only Xu Chen and another alien Grand Venerable Realm expert were in the training ground.

The Grand Venerable Realm expert looked at Xu Chen with a wary gaze.

Xu Chen, on the other hand, nodded at the alien Grand Venerable Realm expert, a smile appearing on his lips.

"Not bad, there are still strong individuals among them."

Xu Chen looked up at the battle world in the sky and found the battle world where Jin Shanhai was located.

In the battle world, Jin Shanhai wields a supreme innate battle sword, exuding a terrifying sword intent, and his every move is domineering.

However, his opponent was a powerful figure skilled in illusion techniques.

No matter how terrifying Jin Shanhai's attacks were, they were all struck by the illusions he created.

"Luckily, this third brother came to me, otherwise I would have suffered a great loss." Xu Chen's lips curled up slightly. The three great Dao supernatural powers he had chosen were specifically designed to counter these fancy things.

In the battle world of Jinshanhai, a powerful alien warrior in a purple robe looked at Jinshanhai with a puzzled expression.

“No, in the past, he would have been able to sense his surroundings much earlier.”

"Why such a frantic attack this time, instead of breaking the illusion first?"

Just as the surrounding alien powerhouses were puzzled, a figure formed from sword intent appeared behind him, following the traces of cause and effect, and unleashed his strongest sword strike!

After the battle, Jin Shanhai appeared in the dojo, his face beaming with barely concealed excitement.

"Senior brother! I can never repay your kindness in teaching me!" Jin Shanhai found Xu Chen as quickly as possible and immediately bowed deeply.

"It was no trouble at all," Xu Chen said kindly as he helped Jin Shanhai up.

"With your current combat strength, you should be able to win five or six matches in this arena. After you have mastered the few great divine abilities that I have taught you, you can participate in this arena battle with an eight or nine out of ten chance of winning."

As Xu Chen spoke, his gaze locked onto another powerful human warrior who was engaged in battle.

Jin Shanhai followed Xu Chen's gaze with excitement, watching the battle scene not far away, where a powerful human was fighting.

The excitement on his face faded as the human expert gradually lost ground.

"Humanity still has a long way to go," Jinshan couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, it's a long road ahead."

Xu Chen had learned that the human race under his master's control had sent out more than a dozen Saint Venerable Realm experts over the past tens of millions of years. Without exception, once these experts left the area controlled by the Myriad Dao Stele, they could never return.

As time went on, the second battle ended, and the third battle began.

Looking at his opponent in the third match, Xu Chen didn't even bother to say a word. He simply waved his hand to suppress him, and the battle ended.

This time, he was the first strongman to appear in the dojo below the battle world.

At this moment, above this battle world, invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts from all races gathered together.

At this moment, all eyes were focused on Wuhen.

Based on Xu Chen's casual palm strike just now, these invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts could conclude that this newly emerged human powerhouse would be the final victor in the Great Venerable Realm arena battle.

"Wuhen, you have found a good disciple. Your human race is destined to rise in the future." A sinister voice rang in the ears of many invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts.

"Yes, I can't even imagine how fast the nobles can develop if such a huge amount of resources are allocated to the human race in the future?"

As one malicious voice after another rang out, the killing intent in Wuhen's eyes grew stronger and stronger.

"Gentlemen, I don't like to beat around the bush when I speak."

"If any race unites to attack our human race..."

Wuhen paused for a moment at this point.

"So be it if my human race is wiped out, but as long as I live, you all must keep a close eye on the prodigies of our race!"

Wuhen grinned maliciously at the few invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts who harbored ill intentions.

"Those two who were being sarcastic just now had better give me an explanation afterward, or else I might join forces with the Light Saint Clan!"

"Fellow Daoist Wuhen, what explanation do you need! Let's join forces and kill him!" The joyful voice of the invincible Saint Venerable Realm expert from the Light Saint Clan rang out.

The rules established by the Myriad Dao Stele make it impossible for the numerous powerful clans in this region to unify this star sea.

Therefore, wars between different races are based on racial grudges. Even if a race is completely wiped out, it is impossible to occupy that race's star sea domain.

Just as a group of invincible Saint Venerable Realm experts were pulling at each other.

The fourth battle then began.

This time, Xu Chen was assigned a very interesting opponent.

A large, crystal-clear fish appeared opposite Xu Chen, its body shimmering with immense spatial power.

"The Ethereal Fish Clan, it's a bit of a tongue twister."

Xu Chen stared curiously at the large fish, but did not make a move immediately.

The ethereal fish, a Grand Venerable Realm expert, was quite unforgiving, unleashing an endless spatial storm upon Xu Chen.

"Fellow Daoist, I cannot kill you, but I can banish you to this endless space!"

A spatial storm swept over Xu Chen, forming one spatial cage after another around him. The vast spatial power surrounding the spatial cages began to stir, attempting to create a small area of ​​spatial turbulence.

If Xu Chen's spatial ability were slightly weaker, he might very well be banished to the endless void along with a spatial cage.

Under the watchful eyes of the powerful members of the Void Fish Clan, the spatial cage was banished into the spatial turbulence zone.

"It actually worked!"

"Being bad at spatial manipulation, I deserve to win this battle~"

The ethereal fish clan expert's body moved nimbly through the void, his tone full of excitement.

Just then, a giant hand reached out from the deepest part of the void and seized the powerful ethereal fish. (End of Chapter)
