Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation-Novel2

Chapter 647: Dancing Clown

Bai He and Bai Yu looked at each other. The Xiao Chen from the Sky Dome Realm that they had been looking down on had unexpectedly succeeded in the challenge.

Bai Yu said hatefully, “He is just lucky. The last rank must be very weak.”

Bai He added, “He is definitely lucky. If he really is courageous, he will definitely continue to challenge the next rank.”

The local cultivators of the Tianwu Domain, who initially looked down on Xiao Chen, were astonished as well. He managed to succeed in breaking into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking on his first attempt. Furthermore, he was just twenty-one years old.

In the Tianwu Domain, Xiao Chen’s talent and comprehension ability could be considered at an expert level already. However, the crowd was not too shocked.

This was because Xiao Chen had not truly climbed into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking yet. He had to stay on the ranking for a month before he could obtain the reward from the Martial God Palace and the protection of a Sage’s will.

This was only the last rank. The people of this rank changed frequently. Cultivators from various places came daily to challenge the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking. The last rank could change at a moment’s notice.

Xiao Chen could only be said to have secured his position on the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking after climbing at least a hundred ranks.

The Xiao Chen in the lantern carefully analyzed his earlier Sea of Lightning Saber Light Chop. He said softly, “Ultimately, a Sword Technique is for the sword. If I want to change it into my Saber Technique, it will take some time.”

Xiao Chen’s twenty-one saber images had broken too easily. He was also far from being able to execute the move as smoothly as the white-haired old man had.

If Xiao Chen met with a powerful expert, that person would be able to quickly destroy this move before the sea of lightning formed, breaking the attack before it was even complete.

That was a rather obvious weak point. In the future, when Xiao Chen had time, he had to go and practice this move more.

Collecting his thoughts, Xiao Chen looked forward. After some consideration, he gave up on continuing the challenge.

With his strength, he should not have much trouble advancing another two hundred ranks, although further than that would be difficult.

However, last one or last two hundred was the same thing to Xiao Chen. There was nothing to be proud of.

After all, he could challenge the ranking once every year. When he became stronger, he would come again and try for the top hundred.

With just a thought, Xiao Chen cut off his connection with the lantern. All his Mental Energy returned to his body. Then, he headed to Old Feng and said, “Senior, let’s go.”

Old Feng smiled faintly. Indeed, Xiao Chen had not disappointed him. Although it was only the last rank, it was enough for Xiao Chen to prove himself.

After Xiao Chen went to the Supreme Sky Sect, he would definitely be able to stand out, obtaining more benefits for himself.

Bai He slowly woke up from his daze and revealed an expression of understanding. He smiled and said, “Like I said, I knew that this fellow managed to get onto the ranking by luck. What’s wrong? Don’t you dare to continue challenging the ranking?

“Watch as I personally chase you off the ranking. The people of the Sky Dome Realm are not worthy of staying on this Proud Son of Heaven Ranking!”

When Xiao Chen heard this, he frowned slightly but ignored the taunt. The Martial God Palace prohibited personal fights here and would punish heavily those who broke this rule; it was not convenient for him to make a move.

Old Feng laughed loudly and said, “Let’s go. There is no need to bother with him. He is just a dancing clown. He is already this old and yet he has never been on the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking.”

Leading Xiao Chen, Yue Chenxi, and Gong Yangyu away, Old Feng left the hall and headed for the Supreme Sky Sect’s main sect.

“Damn it. I spent five years preparing for this attempt. Now, I have advanced to peak Inferior Grade Martial Monarch. I don’t believe that I will lose to a Sky Dome Realm trash.”

Old Feng’s parting words thoroughly agitated Bai He. He immediately rushed forward, lit his lantern, and tossed it up.

Bai He only needed to receive twenty moves from the Sage to pass the foundation test. He had already managed to do so many years ago.

Not long after, he passed the foundation test. Then, he quickly flew towards Xiao Chen’s lantern.

“Get ready. I will kick you off in one move.”

Bai He laughed sinisterly in the lantern. Then, he leaped out of the lantern and entered Xiao Chen’s lantern.

“Ka ca!”

In three breaths after Bai He leaped into Xiao Chen’s lantern, Bai He’s lantern shattered, and his flame scattered.

Bai He vomited a mouthful of blood, and his face turned ashen. His eyes filled with horror.

Bai He had gone up very quickly but got defeated even faster. He could not react at all; he did not know what happened.

Feeling some doubt, Bai Yu asked, “Junior Brother, what’s wrong?”

“I was defeated.”

Bai He was not willing to say much. The horror in his eyes had not faded yet as he walked absentmindedly behind Bai Jian.

Outside the Proud Son of Heaven Pavilion, Xiao Chen felt that someone was fighting his flame clone. However, after he left the hall, he no longer had a stable connection to his flame clone, so he could not see how the battle was going.

“Never mind, I’ll come again next year. At that time, I will break into the top hundred.”

Xiao Chen shook his head and could not be bothered about this matter. He quickly increased his pace to keep up with Old Feng.

“Ka ca! Ka ca!”

In front of the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking, Bai Yu made an attempt next. However, his results were no better than Bai He’s. He only managed to last for a few breaths before getting chased off.

The surrounding cultivators were no doubt laughing in secret. These two fellows had made themselves out to be so powerful earlier, completely looking down on Xiao Chen. They even said that they would chase him off. In the end, they could not even last ten moves against him.

“Ha ha, it looks like Beiming Palace’s people are only good at talking. When it is time to fight, they are useless.”

A stout man from the Rank 8 sect Cold Mist Pavilion laughed loudly, embarrassing Bai Yu and Bai He. They did not know where they could hide, so they only lowered their heads.

“Ka ca!”

However, the results of that stout man were just slightly better. He only lasted for a while before his lantern shattered and his flame scattered; his attempt had failed.

“He is clearly only a newcomer from the Sky Dome Realm. How is he so strong?” The stout man revealed a shocked expression, his face filled with disbelief.

Following that, the disciples of the various sects prepared to make their attempts to rank on the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking. However, without exception, they all fell short at the last rank.

According to the rules of the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking, no one could skip ranks to make a challenge. They had to do it in sequence, ascending slowly.

Otherwise, it would be a great scandal if a newcomer, who just passed the foundation test, challenged the top ten ranks.

With Xiao Chen staying in the last rank, he was like a gatekeeper mercilessly blocking all the disciples from entering the ranking.

Under normal circumstances, these disciples should have been able to force out some of the people on the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking.

Only at this moment did everyone’s expressions change considerably. Their faces now revealed great shock. They had not expected a newcomer from the Sky Dome Realm to be so strong.

The blue-robed youth, Bai Jian, had an interested smile as he said, “Let’s go back to Beiming Palace.”

“Senior Brother, I have not made my attempt yet,” Bai Xi said, holding out her lantern.

“There is no need. We will come again next year. This fellow probably is not aware of the rules of this Proud Son of Heaven Ranking. It is likely that he does not know what kind of disturbance he has caused.”

Bai Jian made the situation very clear. If Xiao Chen remained in that position, Bai Xi would not have an opportunity to break into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking. Since he already knew that her attempt would fail, there was no need for Bai Xi to humiliate herself.

When Bai Yu and Bai He heard Bai Jian’s words, they lowered their heads even further. They hated that they could not find a hole and bury themselves in it now.

Today, Bai Yu and Bai He had completely lost all face. At first, they said that Xiao Chen would definitely not make it into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking.

However, not only did Xiao Chen successfully get into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking, but he also stood at the last rank and blocked everyone else from entering.

Outside the Proud Son of Heaven Pavilion, a fiery Azure Luan slowly descended from the sky. Two pretty girls got off the Spirit Beast.

When the passing cultivators saw the beauty dressed in red on the right side, they all stopped and stared.

“It’s the Phoenix’s Passion Palace’s Nuan Muyun!”

“It really is the Phoenix’s Passion Palace’s Nuan Muyun. She must be here to bring a new disciple to attempt to break into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking.”

The Three Holy Lands’ inheritors had a monopoly on the top ranks of the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking. It had been many years since anyone managed to change that.

These three people were not included with the seven giants because they were far stronger than the seven giants.

Nuan Muyun was too influential. The moment she appeared, she drew everyone’s attention without doing anything. Everyone stopped what they were doing just to watch.

“Xiu!”

Just at this moment, a warship descended from the sky. Two men disembarked from the vessel. One of them had an ordinary appearance with dark skin. He had short black hair and carried a saber on his back.

No matter how anyone looked at him, they would find him ordinary. The only thing that stood out was his eyes. They were pitch-black and filled with ferocity like he had tremendous explosive power.

“Tyrannic Saber Wang Meng! Unexpectedly, one of the seven giants is here as well.”

“What a coincidence! Of the seven giants, Wang Meng is the most arrogant. Given that the two of them brought disciples to attempt to break into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking, there will be a struggle.”

“Given Wang Meng’s character, he will definitely try and compete with Nuan Muyun to see whose disciple can rank higher.”

When the previously quiet crowd saw Wang Meng arrive, heated discussions flared up.

Nuan Muyun stopped and turned around. “Wang Meng.”

Not many people in the Tianwu Domain could make her stop for them. However, this Tyrannical Saber Wang Meng was one of those people worth stopping for.

Smiling, Wang Meng asked, “Nuan Muyun, are you here to bring a disciple to break into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking?”

Nuan Muyun nodded. She already anticipated what Wang Meng would say next. However, she did not fear it.

The person Nuan Muyun brought had excellent talent and comprehension ability. Furthermore, it had been two years since she came from the Sky Dome Realm to the Kunlun Realm. After training for this long, she was no weaker than the experts of the Kunlun Realm.

Still smiling, Wang Meng said, “I heard long ago that the Phoenix’s Passion Palace managed to pick up a gem from the last-ranked Sky Dome Realm. How about it? Nuan Muyun, do you have the guts to let our juniors compete with each other?”

Nuan Muyun smiled slightly and asked the girl beside her, “Liusu, do you dare to compete?”

It turned out that this girl was the Young Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. For Nuan Muyun to bring her personally to break into the Proud Son of Heaven Ranking, the Phoenix’s Passion Palace had to value her a lot.

“I will do what Elder Sister Nuan says!” Leng Liusu spoke in a calm tone, her eyes not showing any fear.

With a faint smile, Nuan Muyun took out a brocade box. She said, “Since you want to compete, I shall go along. However, since it is a competition, we should wager something. I have a stalk of Monarch Blood Grass in this brocade box.

“It can refine a cultivator’s blood and Qi and bestow a trace of an ancient Monarch’s bloodline to strengthen the body.”

Wang Meng’s eyes lit up. Then, he laughed loudly, “It looks like today you’ll be giving away the Monarch Blood Grass you worked so hard to obtain in the Savage Battlefield. Although this junior brother of mine is only an Inferior Grade Martial Monarch, he has the rare fire Spiritual Body.”
