People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 314 The Unexpected Heavenly Phoenix Clan

There was no light, no sound; the void was swallowed by absolute silence and darkness. Only spatial storms raged intermittently, sometimes causing ripples, sometimes posing a fatal threat to even a Dou Sheng powerhouse, making them dare not underestimate it in the slightest.

For this reason, even a Dou Sheng powerhouse would never linger in the void unless absolutely necessary.

After all, no one is willing to gamble their life on such a vague and uncertain chance.

This is one of the reasons why outsiders only know that Dragon Island floats in the void, but very few people have ever seen its true appearance.

"laugh!"

Suddenly, a sharp sound broke the silence of the void.

Immediately afterwards, streaks of rainbow light, like shooting stars piercing the night sky, swept in from afar and finally hovered steadily in this deep, dark space.

The raging spatial turbulence dissipated automatically, like ice and snow meeting the scorching sun, the moment it touched the area within ten feet of the leader.

For powerful individuals at the level of Dou Sheng, ordinary spatial turbulence no longer poses a threat, and spatial storms that can truly be fatal to them are not so easy to encounter.

Chen Xiao slowly closed his eyes, and a vast, raging sea of ​​soul perception poured out instantly, spreading out like an invisible tide into the depths of the void.

Since setting off from East Dragon Island, they have been flying through this darkness for a full month, yet they haven't even caught a trace of West Dragon Island. This gives a glimpse into the vastness of this void.

Even before setting off, Chen Xiao had already discussed and agreed on the arrangements with Zi Yan and Cai Lin.

To avoid alerting the enemy, the three teams had to proceed covertly after a month of continuous travel.

Even if a team discovers Dragon Island first, they must not attack rashly. Only after all three teams have found their respective targets can they act together.

Only in this way can we ensure that all three Dragon Islands are captured without any omissions!
"There is no Xilong Island for thousands of miles ahead. Continue forward."

After carefully sensing the surroundings, Chen Xiao opened his eyes, waved his hand, and led Elders Qingshan and Qingmu, along with Hei Qing and other elites, deeper into the area.

While probing with their soul perception, they continued to advance into the depths of nothingness. In this cautious state of progress, half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, hard work pays off.

On this day, Chen Xiao stopped and, as before, probed the depths of darkness with his soul perception. Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he finally noticed something amiss.

In his perception, the once deathly darkness suddenly became bright, and his mind was no longer completely black.

In the depths of that darkness, there was a huge silver halo that enveloped a rather large island. With an enhanced perception of the soul, lush greenery and rolling mountains suddenly appeared.

It looks exactly like Donglong Island!
"found it!"

A hint of joy flashed in Chen Xiao's eyes. He let out a long breath, releasing all the anxiety and tension he had been feeling for the past month and a half.

Having personally traversed the void, Chen Xiao increasingly understood why Zi Yan had preferred to wait for the three islands to arrive rather than take the initiative.

The torment in this void was far beyond imagination. Even he couldn't help but feel anxious, let alone the lively Zi Yan.
If she stays in this lifeless darkness for too long, that girl will probably go crazy...

“West Dragon Island is just ahead. Judging from its drifting trajectory, it will pass us by. Elder, let’s wait here for news from Zi Yan and Cai Lin. Everyone, conceal your aura and speak less. If there’s anything, communicate via telepathy.”

Chen Xiao turned around and gave an instruction before taking out two jade slips.

For the past month and a half, he has maintained constant contact with Zi Yan and Cai Lin.

Zi Yan, in particular, had to report her progress to Chen Xiao dozens of times every day.

In contrast, Cai Lin has Little Fairy Doctor and Qing Lin by her side, and because of her strong personality, she maintains a regular contact with Chen Xiao three times a day.

“We have found West Dragon Island. According to the Grand Elder, West Dragon Island is the furthest from East Dragon Island. Cai Lin, Zi Yan, you are probably very close to South Dragon Island and North Dragon Island as well.”

Without much thought, Chen Xiao first spread the good news, so that Cai Lin and Zi Yan would be aware of the situation.

The reason he was able to find Xilong Island so quickly was thanks to his powerful soul perception. Each time he probed and confirmed that there was no Xilong Island ahead, he could proceed at full speed. This method was undoubtedly much faster than slowly exploring and moving forward.

So Chen Xiao figured that although he had some advantages, Xilong Island was also the farthest away. If he made progress, Cai Lin and Zi Yan would probably have results soon.

Just as Chen Xiao had predicted, only three days after Xilong Island was found, Zi Yan excitedly sent the news.

"I see it! I can finally see North Dragon Island! Hahahaha!"

Even without meeting her in person, Chen Xiao could imagine how radiant she looked right now.

Another day passed, and Cai Lin's message arrived. Although the message was brief, it conveyed a sense of lightness.

"South Dragon Island has finally been found!"

"Do you want to rest for a day first?" Chen Xiao asked in the message with a smile on his lips.

Now that the three Dragon Islands have been found, they are like fish on a chopping board; whether we act sooner or later, the outcome will be the same.

A message quickly came from the other end of the line; Cai Lin's reply was as straightforward as ever: "No need."

Immediately following was Zi Yan: "No! All I want to do right now is fight!"

After enduring more than a month of frustration, Dae Ja-yeon just wanted to vent.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly and replied, "Then we'll make our move simultaneously in a quarter of an hour!"

Chen Xiao put away the jade slip and quietly released his soul perception.

In the past few days, the location of Xilong Island has changed somewhat. Chen Xiao and his men have also been constantly adjusting their positions. The two sides have always maintained an ambiguous distance. If they advance another thousand feet, they can see the halo surrounding Xilong Island with the naked eye.

Having confirmed that Xilong Island had not detected anything, Chen Xiao withdrew his senses.

Turning to look behind him, Chen Xiao's gaze swept over everyone in the team, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Everyone, adjust your state and prepare for battle! Attack at the appointed time in fifteen minutes. Be quick and decisive!"

Upon hearing this, more than two hundred people nodded in unison, without uttering a single extra word, responding only with silent gestures.

Their eyes blazed with fierce fighting spirit. The frustration and oppression of the past month in the void had left them all eager for the signal to attack.

A quarter of an hour flew by amidst the tense fighting spirit and silent waiting of the crowd, and in the blink of an eye, it had quietly come to an end.

"Go!" Chen Xiao shouted, and with a sudden wave of his hand, the aura that had been suppressed around him for a long time was released, and he led more than two hundred people behind him to rush into the depths of darkness.

In the blink of an eye, the view suddenly opened up before everyone's eyes, and the long-lost light belonging to Xilong Island instantly came into view.

"Be on guard! Someone's approaching!"

"Who dares to invade my West Dragon Island!"

Sensing the sudden arrival of unfamiliar and terrifying auras, two sharp shouts rang out in succession within West Dragon Island.

As soon as the last word vanished into nothingness, a group of streams of light shot out from the silver halo and stopped not far from Chen Xiao and his group after only a few flashes.

The leader was an old man in a blue robe. When his gaze swept over Elders Qingshan and Qingmu, his breath hitched and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

He almost doubted his own eyes!
Among the four islands, Donglong Island has always been the weakest. Every time the four islands meet, they are always attacked by the other three islands.

But now, Aoyama and Aoki have actually come to our door with their own people. This whole thing seems very strange.

Could it be that…

The old man composed himself and tentatively asked, "Qingshan, Qingmu, have you two old fogies finally come to your senses and are planning to come and seek refuge with my Xilong Island?" Upon hearing this, Qingshan and Qingmu exchanged a glance and couldn't help but burst out laughing at the same time.

Qingshan stepped forward, his dragon-headed cane planted in mid-air. His eyes narrowed, and he looked at Zhumu coldly, saying, "Zhumu, have you lost your mind from cultivating? How could we associate with traitors like you who have broken the clan rules! From this day forward, the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan will no longer have the four islands of East, West, South, and North. There will only be the one Dragon Island ruled by His Majesty the Dragon Emperor!"

"That's utterly outrageous!"

Realizing that the newcomers were hostile, Xuanmo, who had been standing beside Zhumu, immediately stepped forward, unleashing the full force of his early-stage Two-Star Dou Sheng aura, instantly enveloping the entire void.

A major battle is imminent!
Qingshan and Qingmu looked at Chen Xiao at the same time. After he nodded slightly, the two stepped forward side by side, their eyes locked on Zhumu and Xuanmo opposite them. They shouted in a deep voice, "Zhumu, Xuanmo, dare to fight!"

"How could we be afraid of you!" Zhu Mu and Xuan Mo said firmly, without backing down in the slightest.

In their preconceived notions, Qingshan was merely a two-star Dou Sheng, and Qingmu was only a one-star Dou Sheng in the late stage.

And they were two two-star Dou Sheng.

Two against two, the advantage is in my hands!

Little did anyone know that Qingshan had already advanced to the Three-Star Dou Sheng realm several years ago.

The four exchanged glances and instantly reached a tacit understanding, then simultaneously soared into the distant void, clearly intending to avoid engaging in combat within the range of the island's protective shield.

Chen Xiao stood still, not worried about the safety of Qingshan and Qingmu. Instead, he enhanced his eyes with the Bone Spirit Cold Flame, his gaze piercing through the silver halo and locking firmly onto a giant palace in the center of West Dragon Island.

The East Dragon Island has already come knocking on our door, yet the West Dragon King has yet to show up, which is truly unusual.

However, he could clearly sense that there was indeed an aura of a late-stage three-star Dou Sheng residing in that hall.

In addition, there was also the aura of a late-stage one-star Dou Sheng.

This is contrary to their understanding of Xilong Island and is an unexpected situation.

After a moment's thought, Chen Xiao stopped hesitating and his fighting spirit surged forth.

In an instant, a vast expanse of cold mist swept over West Dragon Island. The ancient dragons of West Dragon Island felt their fighting spirit frozen, and even their circulation became sluggish.

With a thought, Chen Xiao unleashed a torrent of icy energy that instantly coalesced into countless tiny ice spikes, raining down upon the giant palace on the island.

"Your men are fighting to the death outside, while you, the Western Dragon King, hide in your palace like a coward. Don't you feel ashamed of such behavior?"

Chen Xiao's voice, shrouded in cold air, pierced through the icy mist and resounded throughout West Dragon Island, each word striking the giant hall with crystal clarity.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

Two loud explosions suddenly rang out, and two gigantic palm prints, each hundreds of feet long, burst forth from the giant hall. The palm winds, carrying powerful battle qi, instantly shattered the countless ice spikes into dust.

The next moment, two figures flew up.

One of them was a middle-aged man with a gloomy face. Both his appearance and the aura he exuded as a late-stage three-star Dou Sheng perfectly matched the description of the Western Dragon King that Qingshan had given him.

The other person was an old man. Although he only had the strength of a one-star Dou Sheng in the late stage and was unremarkable, his aura gave Chen Xiao a vague sense of familiarity.

"A four-star Dou Sheng!!"

The Western Dragon King's face was so gloomy it could drip water, and his eyes were full of apprehension as he looked at Chen Xiao: "You are definitely not a member of my Ancient Dragon Clan! Whatever benefits Eastern Dragon Island has given you, Western Dragon Island is willing to pay double! Please do not interfere in the affairs of my clan!"

Despite the West Dragon King's overtures, Chen Xiao didn't even glance at him, his eyes fixed on the old man.

"You are a member of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, so why are you on West Dragon Island?"

After a moment's thought, Chen Xiao confirmed the old man's identity.

He had sensed that unique aura belonging to the Heavenly Phoenix Clan before, on Feng Qing'er.

Previously in the Black Corner Region, Chen Xiao even obtained a dried corpse of a Heavenly Demon Phoenix and had considerable contact with it.

With this comparison, the old man's identity becomes obvious.

But Chen Xiao was puzzled as to why the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan would come to West Dragon Island.
Although they also intervened in the affairs of the ancient dragon clan in the original timeline, that was many years later.

Just then, a message came from the storage ring.

Chen Xiao sensed it briefly, and his gaze toward the old man immediately became sharp and dangerous.

Not only on West Dragon Island, but also on North Dragon Island and South Dragon Island, Zi Yan and Cai Lin discovered Dou Sheng powerhouses from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

A mid-stage two-star Dou Sheng.

A mid-stage one-star Dou Sheng.

Chen Xiao stared at the old man, his tone icy: "Of the Three Heavenly Demon Phoenixes, which one are you?"

"I am Kunhuang."

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, the old man no longer concealed himself and responded with a buzzing sound. However, when it came to the purpose of his visit, his tone turned somber: "As for why I came here, it has nothing to do with the Master of Zixiao Pavilion, so I cannot tell you."

However, Chen Xiao could glean one piece of information from his words: he recognized him.

"Since that's the case, then I can only try to persuade them with reason." Chen Xiao sighed softly, but his tone showed no sign of backing down.

Seeing this, the Western Dragon King and Kunhuang exchanged a glance. The former immediately let out a fierce shout and shot out like an arrow, carrying the terrifying power of a late-stage three-star Dou Sheng, and attacked Chen Xiao fiercely.

Kunhuang followed closely behind, unleashing the full power of a late-stage One-Star Dou Sheng, clearly intending to join forces with the Western Dragon King to strike first.

They had already realized that Chen Xiao would not let this go easily today.

Since further discussion is pointless, let's take action and seize the initiative!

Chen Xiao stood firmly in the void, remaining completely still in the face of the combined attack from the Western Dragon King and the Kunhuang, like a rock rooted in the heavens and earth.

Seeing his attitude, the Western Dragon King took it as arrogance and was secretly pleased, so he increased his attack speed by three points.

A fierce glint flashed in Kunhuang's eyes. He pushed his fighting spirit to its limit and even had the audacious idea of ​​severely injuring Chen Xiao with a single palm strike.

But the next second, their expressions changed drastically at the same time.

They sensed that the void around Chen Xiao was as if it had been injected with molten lead, becoming incredibly viscous, causing their originally swift movements to slow down instantly. Each step forward required several times the effort, as if they were trapped in a terrifying swamp of gravity.

Before they could break free, Chen Xiao's lips curled into a faint smile. Just as their fists and palms were about to touch his clothes, he suddenly moved!
"Bang!" "Bang!"

There are no fancy tricks, only the most extreme power.

Two muffled collisions rang out almost simultaneously. Chen Xiao's fist, though arriving later, struck the West Dragon King and Kunhuang squarely in the chest.

Two immense forces, far exceeding their expectations, surged forth. The Western Dragon King felt as if his body was about to explode, and the Kunhuang was shaken so badly that his fighting spirit became chaotic. Before they could even scream, their bodies were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings!

After repeated tempering and improvement, with the protection of the Dragon Emperor Ancient Armor, and having undergone countless baptisms of black demon lightning in the Void Thunder Pool, Chen Xiao's physical strength is now no less than that of a six-star Dou Sheng level Taixu Ancient Dragon.

These two actually tried to test each other's strengths by engaging in close combat, only to find themselves biting off more than they could chew.
