Chapter 2337
Of the eight, Chen Xuan and Chen Xi were most skilled in formations and puppetry. They both nodded, their eyes filled with amazement: "The work of an ancient immortal is truly extraordinary."
"We finally got to come out, where are we going?" Zixia asked, skipping along, her eyes full of curiosity. If it weren't for her sister Qingxia being there to oversee things, she wouldn't have had the chance to go out and have fun so easily.
Upon hearing this, the other seven people all turned their gazes to Chen Xuan and Xuan Yi.
"Brother Chen Xuan, you make the decision. I'm fine with anything." Xuan Yi smiled and waved his hand.
“In that case, let’s follow the guidance of the jade talisman given by Uncle Zichen and first visit some famous ancient ruins in the city. After that, we can go to the Ancient Immortal Pavilion to sample some battlefield specialties,” Chen Xuan suggested.
The group was mostly women, so they couldn't go to places of entertainment; ruins and restaurants would be more suitable.
His proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.
The group of eight did not choose to fly, but instead strolled along the ancient street.
Xia Jiuyou wore a fairy-like feathered robe, the hem of which swayed with a faint aura of the netherworld, her demeanor as cold as ice; Lu Xueqi wore a light blue long dress, her aura ethereal and her demeanor as gentle as a lotus.
Dawn, Yellow Springs, and others each possessed their own unique charm, enough to attract countless eyes even in the Boundless City where all races gathered.
Along the way, the group witnessed the diversity of the races: there were winged races with wings on their backs, dragon races covered in scales, alien races with three eyes on their faces, and a race of gods and demons with imposing figures.
In particular, a divine phoenix warship had just passed by at low altitude, with a strange woman wearing a phoenix feather mask standing beside the ship's side. Her figure was graceful, and just looking at her silhouette made Chen Xuan, Xuan Yi, and Xuan Ye's eyes light up.
After the warship flew away, many cultivators whispered among themselves.
It turns out that this woman is Huang Nanyu, the Phoenix Clan's proud princess from the second line of defense. She has only cultivated for 1,300 years and has already passed the first-class Heavenly Immortal Tribulation and the first-class Heavenly God Tribulation with her unparalleled talent. Her arrival in Wujiang City this time is precisely to participate in the war and hone herself.
"The Immortal Phoenix Clan within the second line of defense... their background is truly impressive." Xuan Yi's face was full of envy.
“These geniuses are born with endless resources and can even choose the inheritance left by ancient immortals. Unlike us, we relied entirely on our own opportunities and hard work to get to our current status before we rose to power.”
Xuan Ye nodded in agreement, but her tone was very calm: "What's there to envy? A tribal creature like her may have only cultivated for a little over a thousand years, but in reality, she may have been dormant and accumulated for millions of years since hatching from the egg."
The gentle Chenxi nodded: "This kind of creature, which was nurtured by countless treasures before it was born, has already perfectly integrated its primordial spirit and physical body. I'm afraid it will never be able to cultivate a second primordial spirit."
"Yes," Xia Jiuyou said calmly, a hint of arrogance in her eyes.
"Most of those who can cultivate a second primordial spirit rise from humble beginnings, their divine souls growing stronger with each trial, allowing them to split their imperfect divine souls in two. She, who was born with perfect divine souls, has lost this opportunity."
Chen Xuan smiled and said calmly, "Everyone has their own path, and every path has its own trials. We just need to walk our own path well and don't need to envy others."
The eight people walked and stopped along the way, sometimes pausing to look up at a majestic ancient building, and sometimes stopping to comprehend the Dao in front of the remnants of ancient battles. Before they knew it, they arrived in front of an incredibly spacious giant building. The terrain resembled the gladiatorial arena of their previous life, but it was a hundred times more magnificent and surrounded by a dense aura of killing.
As we approached, we heard bursts of passionate shouts coming from inside:
"Celestial Dreamer, your servant is utterly useless! He's lost three matches in a row!"
"Well done, Hopeless Celestial! Betting on you to win was a huge win, hahaha!"
……
Upon hearing the sound, Chen Xuan and his eight companions leaped up and cleared the high wall surrounding the building.
A fierce battle was taking place on the field: a beast resembling a lion or tiger but with a single horn, a creature at the Void Realm, was exchanging blows with a six-armed demon god.
The beast was clearly stronger. Taking advantage of the six-armed demon's defensive lapse, it lashed out with its claws, severing the demon's head. The demon's body crumbled, and the beast roared in victory.
As the game came to a close, some people beat their chests in frustration, while others, their faces flushed, laughed heartily. The air was thick with the fervor of the betting contest.
Chen Xuan and his eight companions landed on a huge, suspended stone staircase and watched coldly from the sidelines.
Most of the onlookers and bettors were Heavenly Immortals, with a few True Immortals present, and the majority were Void Realm dignitaries surrounded by servants and maids.
The arrival of the eight people immediately attracted the attention of many cultivators who frequented the area.
A cultivator with triangular eyes, at the Void Reversal Realm, approached with a smile. He first bowed to the group, exchanged pleasantries, and then subtly invited them to participate in the duel, his tone full of probing.
Chen Xuan had no interest in such a small prize and was about to turn to ask his two battle-loving friends, Xuan Yi and Huang Quan, for their opinions when suddenly, several flippant and disdainful mocking voices came from behind him:
"Oh, what a small world! Aren't these the eight holy sons and daughters of the Flame Dragon Realm?"
"It really is true! I didn't get a good look at her before at the first line of defense, but today I see that the Flame Dragon Realm actually has such a stunningly beautiful woman?"
"Hey, you fairy in the celestial robe, and you young lady in the light blue dress... May I ask your names? Do you already have a Daoist partner?"
……
The flippant words carried an offensive tone, and Chen Xuan, Xuan Yi, and Xuan Ye turned around with smiles, wanting to see who was so reckless.
Xia Jiuyou, Lu Xueqi, and the others who were being teased instantly turned gloomy, while Huang Quan quietly channeled his celestial magic power, ready to make a move at any moment.
"Oh? Isn't this the famous 'Birdman Prince' Chi Mang?" Chen Xuan's gaze swept over the twenty-odd people opposite him, most of whom were cultivators from the Nine Springs Realm, while four others were dressed in purple and appeared to be human. "Oh, Princess Mengdie is here too?"
He stared at the porcelain doll-like little girl, his hands clenched into claws, his eyes wicked, and a mocking smile curled at the corner of his mouth: "What? You want me to suppress you and spank you that badly?"
Chen Xuan deliberately provoked the little girl—she had challenged him so much before, and now that they were in this life-or-death arena, he was going to give them a good beating!
"You...you scoundrel!" Princess Mengdie's face turned pale with anger, her eyes reddening. She pointed at Chen Xuan and stammered for a long time before finally managing to utter a threat, "You have humiliated me time and time again, and this time I will definitely not let you off!"
"Chen Xuan, stop with the empty words!" A Winged Clan Celestial Immortal stepped forward, his immortal energy surging.
"Humans are masters of sophistry. Since we've met here, why don't we have a duel? Rest assured, my Nine Springs Realm is known for its fairness and will not take advantage of your Flame Dragon Realm's lack of resources."
"Hahaha!" Another prodigy from the Nine Springs Realm burst into laughter, his tone full of sarcasm.
"Last time, your Flame Dragon Realm, as the main force resisting the strange army, suffered a crushing defeat. Not only did you fail to receive any reward from the powerful, you were almost punished. These past million years must have been very difficult for you, haven't they?"
