Peerless War God

Chen Xiao was startled, he never thought that this fellow would actually commit suicide in such a straightforward manner. This gave him no chance to ask any more questions.    

    

Fortunately, Chen Xiao still got some useful information from what he said last: This fellow was indeed not under Ling Xiao's control, but was the mysterious power behind Ling Xiao. And from his previous performance, that mysterious force should have been extremely powerful, to the point that he felt that when Chen Xiao faced that force, he was nothing more than an ant that could be crushed at any time.    

    

An ant?    

    

Chen Xiao's expression became serious, but following that, his heart erupted with fighting spirit. No matter what kind of power was in front of him, he would not be afraid. In his previous life, a wargod only carried out one word — fight!    

    

The body in his hands was already useless, Chen Xiao then threw it away. He then turned to look at the Ocean Emperor. He had already exited the ancient tree and stuffed the pill into his mouth. It was obvious that he had recovered quite a bit.    

    

After all, he was the sect leader of Haihuang Sect, how could he not have good things on hand?    

    

"I say, Xiao Chen, what's with your strength?" After recovering, the Ocean Emperor was the first to ask. He had witnessed Chen Xiao's entire process from the moment he was heavily injured to when he broke out of his cocoon. What exactly happened in the process that caused Chen Xiao's strength to reach such a terrifying level?    

    

"I'm not sure about that. After I woke up, I felt my body brimming with energy …" Before he could even finish speaking the last word, Chen Xiao's aura suddenly dropped, and the energy in his body retreated like the tide. Streams of red energy flew out of his body and returned to the blood-colored ancient tree.    

    

"This …" Chen Xiao was stunned, his strength finally stopped at the Nine Star Martial Saint. Compared to the previous state, it was like heaven and earth.    

    

The Sovereign of the Seas was also stunned on the spot. But then, he felt that this situation was completely acceptable. When Chen Xiao had turned into a cocoon, he had been able to do it with that much energy that the blood-colored ancient tree had given him. With that much energy, even the Ocean Emperor might not be able to absorb it, let alone Chen Xiao.    

    

But the reality was, not only was Chen Xiao fine, his strength had increased explosively after breaking out of the cocoon. This situation was really hard for him to accept. On the contrary, this scene could now be explained.    

    

Chen Xiao was only able to reach that level of strength because of the energy given by the blood-colored ancient tree, and now, the blood-colored ancient tree was only able to receive the energy. As a result, Chen Xiao's strength had naturally changed back.    

    

Looking at the stunned Chen Xiao, the Sovereign of the Seas wondered if he should tell Chen Xiao all of these. But before he had even opened his mouth, Chen Xiao had already come back to his senses.    

    

Chen Xiao thirsted for power very much. Previously, his strength that far surpassed Master Tu was indeed very strong. But Chen Xiao also felt that the arrival of that power was a little too inexplicable. Right now, there was actually nothing bad about it. Stepping on the ground and advancing step by step was the most correct method on the path of cultivation. Furthermore, Chen Xiao had not truly not obtained nothing. At least, hadn't he already broken through the 8-star level and reached the Nine Star Martial Saint? As long as he worked hard, he would be able to break through to the Deity-level.    

    

"Ocean Emperor, how long have I been unconscious? What happened in the middle? " asked the Ocean Emperor as he was not feeling conflicted about the drop in his strength.    

    

Regarding this, the Sovereign of the Seas would naturally not hide it, and roughly narrated the entire process of him finding Chen Xiao. In the end, he asked Chen Xiao, "Xiao Chen, where is this guy from? Why would they want to deal with you? Also, did something happen in Haihuang Sect? "    

    

The Haihuang Sect was what the Ocean Emperor was most worried about.    

    

"He was sent by the Extermination Sect to deal with me." Chen Xiao did not hide anything as he replied.    

    

"The Extermination Sect sent it!?" The Ocean Emperor was startled, such a powerful being actually existed in the Extermination Sect? The Extermination Sect was fine, why did he send such a strong guy to deal with Chen Xiao?    

    

The Ocean Emperor did not ask this question. Regardless of the conflict between the Extermination Sect and Chen Xiao, he was already standing on the same side as Chen Xiao now. Furthermore, Chen Xiao's strength wasn't any lower than the Ocean Emperor's right now. Furthermore, he had the support of the blood-colored ancient tree as the Ocean Emperor had his eyes on this.    

    

The Ocean Emperor had been inside the ancient ruins for so many days, but other than knowing that the ancient trees' energy was not bad, he had not discovered anything else.    

    

"As for the Haihuang Sect, I am not sure what will happen to them either. At that time, the situation was too dangerous, and that fellow directly rushed towards me. Other than fleeing for my life, I had no other choice. " At that time, if Chen Xiao had not decisively chosen to escape, the person who would have become a corpse right now would have been him instead.    

    

"Then what do we do now? Can you still get out of the relic? You've been here all day. Could he be like me and unable to go out? " The Ocean Emperor was worried. If Chen Xiao was also like that, then the Ocean Emperor would have no way of knowing what would really happen to the Haihuang Sect.    

    

"Don't worry about that. I feel like I will be teleported out of this relic in a while. " Chen Xiao replied. This was not his intuition, but rather, he could actually feel it. The ruins already gave him a sense of rejection, and this feeling of rejection was very difficult to detect. Moreover, it increased bit by bit, and when it reached a sufficient degree, he would be teleported out of the ruins.    

    

To be able to sense this, it was only because Chen Xiao's strength had suddenly risen explosively earlier that he could sense it.    

    

But compared to leaving the relic, Chen Xiao's current focus was on the blood-colored ancient tree. He did not understand why the ancient tree would suddenly help him at that time. Could it be that he had some sort of relationship with this ancient tree?    

    

Thinking back to what happened three thousand years ago, it made Chen Xiao even more curious about what had happened that day. In particular, there were many matters where he was somehow related to him despite the fact that he was not the one who did it.    

    

Then was the blood-colored ancient tree in front of him such a situation?    

    

Standing under the tree trunk, Chen Xiao didn't discover anything. Therefore, he immediately flew towards the top of the ancient tree.    

    

"Xiao Chen, be careful. You can't just casually go up the ancient tree." Seeing Chen Xiao suddenly rush towards him, the Ocean Emperor quickly reminded him. From the very beginning, he had thought about following the tree trunk and finding out if there was anything in the middle. However, the result was that the closer they got to the trunk, the more pressure they felt. Even with the Ocean Emperor's strength, he had no choice but to give up in the end.    

    

However, what surprised the Ocean Emperor was that nothing wrong with Chen Xiao actually happened, and he easily flew into the crown of the tree.    

    

What was going on?    

    

The Ocean Emperor was confused, was the ancient tree conscious? It also depends on whether the person chooses to release the pressure?    

    

Such a guess was clearly not reliable …
