Chapter 498: Chapter 484: Depths of the Great Wasteland, Three Star Beasts! _1

Tie Mo knelt on the ground, realizing that it was his own ill fortune for provoking someone who turned out to be stronger than he expected. He now found himself in the same position as Xiao Chen was once, at the mercy of fate.

This is destiny! Some debts of karma must be repaid.

His actions confused some of the warriors outside Iron Hoof City. As the Ten-Thousand Men Leader of Iron Hoof City, Tie Mo had some reputation, but it was still far inferior to the Towering Realm. Many people were speculating whether today’s events were indeed related to him.

The honor of provoking a battle involving several massive Towering Realm Wu Warriors is something few people could match.

The appearance of Tie Mo was also a signal from the Iron Hoof Clan Leader to Xiao Chen to make amends. After all, all of this was caused by Tie Mo’s own greed. It can be said that Tie Mo is the reason why Xiao Chen is battling the Iron Hoof War Division today.

Puft!

Xiao Chen flicked his finger, and Combat Qi burst forth, penetrating Tie Mo’s forehead, leaving a bloody hole. Tie Mo’s body immediately collapsed.

Watching Tie Mo fall, the Iron Hoof Clan Leader couldn’t help but cringe. Their Ten-Thousand Men Leader was killed in the presence of countless people of Great Wasteland Human Tribes. Regardless of the reasons behind this situation, it is an undeniable blow to the Iron Hoof Tribe’s reputation.

It won’t take long for news of today’s events to spread across the entire Border Wilderness Domain. Unfortunately, the times have changed — Xiao Chen and the Gu Yuan Tribe he represents have risen, and the Iron Hoof no longer has the strength to suppress them.

"Qin Clan Leader, today’s situation is a consequence of past actions. As you know, my Gu Yuan Battle Division will always seek revenge. Now that Tie Mo is dead and the karma is resolved, this matter should come to an end. If you have any complaints, I, as Clan Leader, will address them. If that time comes, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

After killing Tie Mo, the ringleader, Xiao Chen looked at the Iron Hoof Clan Leader and spoke in a deep voice. He had achieved his purpose today, but he couldn’t kill the current Iron Hoof Clan Leader and Great Elder outright like he did to the previous Clan Leader of Baoxiang Tribe.

"Fine! We Iron Hoof admitted that we were wrong in the past. Nevertheless, in this Great Wasteland, power is respected. Back then, when the Iron Hoof Tribe was strong, it was justified. Now Feng Shui Changes, and you have power to rival the Iron Hoof war division, we, Iron Hoof, admit defeat! In the future, let’s see who’s better!"

Listening to Xiao Chen’s words, the Iron Hoof Clan Leader answered with a stiff face. He was indirectly telling Xiao Chen that they, the Iron Hoof War Division, did not admit any wrongdoing. However, now that Xiao Chen is strong, they admit defeat.

He also understood that Xiao Chen had his own reservations and couldn’t deal with the Iron Hoof War Division as he pleased. Today’s event was only due to the forced circulation of events. If there was a chance in the future, he would definitely seek revenge. But whether Xiao Chen would let him fulfill his wish is uncertain.

In front of the Iron Hoof City, the faces of the Iron Hoof Tribe’s elders and soldiers became even more unpleasant. Today’s events constituted their greatest humiliation, and they wished they could draw their weapons and attack Xiao Chen.

"Chief Xiao, these gifts are to compensate from the Iron Hoof War Division. Should we, the Iron Hoof Tribe’s warriors, deliver them back for you?" There were enough apology gifts to pile up like a small hill, and Xiao Chen couldn’t handle them alone. Thus, the Iron Hoof Great Elder suggested such an arrangement, hoping to see Xiao Chen embarrass himself.

"No need!"

Xiao Chen waved his hand, and the shining energy cores and spirit soldiers disappeared instantly. The things that Xiao Chen valued most among these were the three Accurate Spirit Soldiers. After all, with the current foundation of the Gu Yuan Battle Division, it was difficult to forge such spirit soldiers. With these three Accurate Spirit Soldiers, when one of the tribesmen breaks through to the Towering Realm next, they will have weapons to use.

Storage space!

Watching the energy cores disappear in a flash, many people look at Xiao Chen with envy. However, Xiao Chen didn’t care.

Roar!

At this moment, a shocking dragon chant rang out in the distance. A golden flame shot across the sky, making its way towards the front of Iron Hoof City.

When the flames dissipated, a golden horse appeared in front of the crowd. Its majestic dragon horn and the ancient dragon’s bloodline made this horse appear extraordinarily noble. Its golden eyes twinkled and its hooves, like gold, landed on the ground, coming before Xiao Chen.

Heavenly Horse!

Among the shocked expressions, Xiao Chen rode on to the back of the horse. Following a long whine, all the beasts in Iron Hoof City crouched and lowered their heads. The pressure from the horse’s bloodline made them shrink back, quivering in fear.

"Xiao Chen, you...!"

Suddenly, the Iron Hoof Clan Leader spoke out. Before he could finish, Xiao Chen’s voice echoed in the sky.

"Yes! Several months ago, our Gu Yuan Battle Division gathered divine gold from all corners and held a grand sacrifice to heaven. By doing so with a low-ranking Battle Division status, we were blessed with the luck of a high-ranking Battle Division!"

"Our tribe is thriving, and we’ve advanced to a middle-ranking Battle Division!"

What?!

The low-ranking Battle Division bears the luck of the high-ranking Battle Division!

Now it has even jumped to become a human War Tribe on par with the Iron Hoof War Division!

No wonder Xiao Chen could attract a more pure fortune Purple Qi than the Iron Hoof Tribe. This was the difference between tribal ranks. The Gu Yuan Tribe, which boasted of a high ranking position, believed that in a few hundred years they would surely be able to ascend to a high-ranking War Division.

The Iron Hoof Clan Leader and the Grand Elder shared a glance, taking a long sigh of relief. They were thankful that they didn’t launch another attack just now. Paying a hefty price to let Xiao Chen leave satisfied might not be perfect, but at least there was room for reconciliation. Otherwise, in the future, even such a price would be impossible for them to afford.

Three days later.

In just three days, the news about Xiao Chen, emanating from Giant Stone Valley, spread across several regions under the jurisdiction of Iron Hoof Tribe. He was known for stunningly killing the elderly clan leader of the Bao Elephant Tribe and defeating two huge Tower Realm Wu experts from Iron Hoof City, then leaving at ease.

The most shocking news, however, was that a new Supreme Overlord had emerged in the Border Wasteland Region.

As for Xiao Chen, all these events were now incredibly distant to him. At this moment, he had stepped deep into the depths of the Wilderness.

The Great Wasteland was vast and massive. The Border Wilderness itself spanned hundreds of millions of miles, and yet on this vast terrain, there were only eighty-nine medium-ranking War Divisions, nine top-ranking War Divisions, and one Marquis-ranking War Division.

The land spawned sporadic settlements. Many of the War Divisions were separated by an endless wilderness, so in many cases, the Human War Divisions fought independently. This was not just the case in the Border Wilderness, but a common situation across the vast Human World.

For example, the Gu Yuan War Division and the Iron Hoof War Division, due to some special reasons, ended up being considerably close to each other, even in the Great Wasteland, where some Human War Divisions were millions of miles apart.

The depths of the Great Wasteland were more primitive Desolate Wilds, where no human had entered for thousands of years. The dangers within were unimaginable. It was essentially a bloody killing ground.

Despite having the Pegasus, Xiao Chen was cautious. He could even sense numerous subtle presences in the Wilderness. They were definitely not something he could counter. With his current strength, he didn’t dare to cause too much commotion. He either circumnavigated around the border, or traversed through the profound heights of the sky.

Half a month later.

Squawk!

A piercing eagle cry that sounded like metal slicing through the air echoed through the void, and an immense purple eagle plummeted to the ground. The great force shattered its bones, blood flowed from the corner of its mouth.

This was a Purple Phoenix Sculpture, a unique species in the Desolate Wilds. It carried the bloodline of the ancient exotic creature, the Azure Luan Bird, within its body. With wings spanning fifty feet, it was in the later stages of the Three-star realm, on par with a massive Tower Realm Wu expert at the fourth layer of heaven.

The purple wings spread out, enough to blot out the sky and tear through the vault of heaven. Attracted by the bloodline within Pegasus, it persisted in chasing after Xiao Chen for three days over a hundred thousand miles. If Pegasus wasn’t faster, they would have been caught long ago. However, Pegasus was still young, and its stars were only beginning to form, so it was destined to tire eventually.

In the end, relying on their superior speed, Xiao Chen and Pegasus managed to kill the Purple Phoenix Sculpture while also being pursued.

The Purple Phoenix Sculpture was ranked in the later stages of the Three-star realm and was made of steel and iron. Its entire body was like cast purple gold, with bones as sturdy as Accurate Spirit Soldiers. It was a valuable casting material. Xiao Chen stored it in the Mountain and River Seal Space. The Pill Star of the Purple Phoenix Sculpture was taken by Pegasus.

Over the past half-month, despite the utmost caution from Xiao Chen and Pegasus, they encountered numerous dangerous beasts in the depths of the wilderness. You never knew when you might accidentally step into the territory of a beast. Xiao Chen had slain no less than twenty beasts, most of which were of the Two-star realm, and there were only three Three-star beasts, including the Purple Phoenix Sculpture.

The Pill Stars condensed within these exotic beasts were all refined by Pegasus. At this moment, Pegasus had already advanced to the peak of the Two-Star realm. In its brow, besides the two Pill Stars, a golden whirlpool was faintly emerging, condensing into star shapes.

Once the Star Pendant had condensed and the Pill Star had formed, it could break free from the shackles and advance to the Three-star Cloud Mount Stage.

Regardless of their injuries, Xiao Chen stored the Purple Phoenix Sculpture in the Mountain and River Seal, and Pegasus took to the skies.

Roar!

After half a stick of incense’s time, the earth shook, ancient trees fell, and a golden-haired bear ten feet tall rushed out of the ancient forest. On its head were golden horns, and a fierce atmosphere permeated. There were three Pill Stars slowly revolving between its brows, and the breath it emitted was even stronger than that of the Purple Phoenix Sculpture.

Ten thousand miles away.

From a secluded valley, Xiao Chen’s iron fist thundered, creating a huge cave in an ancient mountain. He and Pegasus entered the cave and sealed its entrance.

Xiao Chen sat on the ground, swallowing a pill for healing. A rich surge of Combat Qi could be felt in a flash.

Meanwhile, Pegasus, standing beside him, swallowed the essence of the Purple Phoenix Sculpture, and its body was enveloped in golden flames.

There were too many dangers in the Wilderness. Ferocious beasts rampaged through the ancient forest mountain range, venomous insects were everywhere, and some exotic beasts carried formidable bloodlines, easily crushing warriors of the same realm.

The mad chase by the Purple Phoenix Sculpture over ten thousand miles of the Wilderness, including dozens of battles, had worn Xiao Chen down. If he hadn’t been driven into a corner, he wouldn’t have resolved to severely injure it in order to kill it. The Purple Phoenix Sculpture, which carried the bloodline of the Wilderness Azure Luan, was extraordinary in strength.

Five days later.

The entire ancient mountain exploded, and Xiao Chen burst out from the cave. His state in the two-tiered Tower Realm had been compressed to the maximum, and Pegasus, who had a noble bloodline and needed even more energy to level up, was next to him. The essence of a Three-star destructive beast had clearly made the Pill Star in its brow more substantial, and a breakthrough was already in sight.
