Chapter 1934 Raw 2035 : What Is Supreme?

That face in the boundless Starry Heavens gave off a hazy light.

The deep and resonant voice echoed in this vast asteroid formation.

The pillars of light from the asteroids shot up, isolating the area. Even that voice became intermittent. However, that did not prevent Xiao Chen from understanding what it said.

The face above the dragon prison looked at Jue Yang. Then, its gaze landed on Xiao Chen, who was behind Jue Yang.

That face appeared stunned, and the voice stopped.

Jue Yang said softly, “I am not the one who wants to see you. It is him. You know the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s rules. I will always do my best to fulfill the request of those who can become a heaven-class core disciple. His request was to meet you, to see the creator of the Supreme Dragon Fist.”

That person, who was definitely that particular Heavenly Dragon, smiled as his face hovered in the air. “I am just a criminal; what is there to see? However, you said that he is a Heavenly Dragon Palace disciple? That is interesting. Hahahaha!”

Suddenly, that person started laughing wildly, stunning Jue Yang and confusing him.

Xiao Chen found it strange in his heart. Could it be that this person already guessed my true bloodline?

That’s right. I immediately noticed your bloodline, the Azure Dragon bloodline. To think that the Azure Dragon did not go extinct and even sneaked into the Heavenly Dragon Palace. What are you planning? Are you thinking of restoring the Azure Dragon bloodline’s glory?

Suddenly, that person’s voice rang out in Xiao Chen’s mind, startling him. How did you know what I was thinking?

Your expression betrayed you. Don’t worry. I will not tell others. If not for me having specially studied the Azure Dragon bloodline, I would not have recognized your bloodline so quickly. Anyone else, even with similar cultivation, would find it difficult to make out your bloodline. After all, it is a bloodline that people have already forgotten. Who would go and study it like me, even visiting the former land of the Azure Dragons?

The former lands of the Azure Dragons? Where is that?

After the short conversation, that person stopped speaking with Xiao Chen. He did not give Xiao Chen an answer before continuing his chat with Jue Yang.

“He successfully practiced the Supreme Dragon Fist?”

After that person heard Palace Master Jue Yang’s introduction, his gaze on Xiao Chen turned somewhat playful. “I thought that it had been destroyed long ago. To think that he helped me preserve it. However, the flaws of this Fist Technique are extraordinarily large…”

As the two seniors spoke, Xiao Chen discovered that the sword wound in the chest of the petrified physical body under the dragon pillar no longer just dripped blood. Now, the blood fountained out, directly shooting upwards.

When sprinkled with this blood, the divine flame on the altar grew much stronger. The dragon pillar was now an even brighter red, looking very fresh.

The treasure sword stabbed at the top trembled lightly as though it was pulling on the sword wound of that person’s chest.

The petrified skin slowly ripped apart, presenting an exceptionally horrifying sight.

Just by looking at it, Xiao Chen felt intense pain. Who could endure this inhumane torture?

However, the face above the dragon prison did not look affected at all. Instead, he calmly chatted with Palace Master Jue Yang.

Xiao Chen could not help saying, “Second Palace Master, let’s go.”

Palace Master Jue Yang nodded and said, “Let’s go, then.”

The asteroid carrying the two left, moving away at a constant speed.

Xiao Chen looked over his shoulder at that person. That face in the air turned increasingly blurry. But it still smiled at him.

When Xiao Chen turned around, an imposing shout suddenly rang out. That person roared using the voice of his soul.

“The vast and mighty group of dragons wanders the world, entering the sky and the sea. Who is honored? The group of dragons is leaderless in the four seas and eight cardinal directions. The world is unfair, and the evil dragon rules. Why is he honored? Fate is unfavorable; life is like paper…”

The surroundings echoed with his voice singing the incantation of the Supreme Dragon Fist.

Xiao Chen’s Veritable Essence Energy started circulating without his volition for some reason, driven by that voice.

As Xiao Chen’s Veritable Essence Energy gushed and that person sang, his strand of Heavenly Dragon’s mystery slowly merged with the Supreme Dragon Fist. The Heavenly Dragon’s mystery steadily strengthened like a plant nourished with water. It grew together with the Supreme Dragon Fist, the two supplementing each other.

Wait…

Xiao Chen suddenly discovered that the incantation that this person sang included many things that the Supreme Dragon Fist’s manual did not.

The Supreme Dragon Fist that Xiao Chen obtained had flaws. In the past twenty-odd years, this person had gained new comprehensions about the Supreme Dragon Fist.

Xiao Chen did not know this but could clearly feel the difference. To him, there were only benefits and no deficits.

Not only did his Heavenly Dragon’s mystery grow, but his Supreme Dragon Fist also got perfected.

“What is supreme? The heavens turn desolate, and the ground ages. The supreme is ageless; time passes unhurriedly, but the supreme is immortal. His heart never dies; his speech never shows regret. His body is undying…”

At the end of the incantation, Xiao Chen was certain that it was not that the Supreme Dragon Fist was incomplete.

Instead, in the past twenty-odd years, this person had new comprehensions about the Supreme Dragon Fist and perfected it. Many of the things he sang surpassed Xiao Chen’s understanding.

What was supreme?

The original Supreme Dragon Fist answered this in simple words: “In the entire world, only I am honored.”

Now, this person elaborated on this. He had to have had new comprehensions.

Xiao Chen was very intelligent. He could feel that the line “In the entire world, only I am honored” was merely tyrannical. Twenty-five years ago, that person felt that when one was unrivaled in the world, one could be called supreme.

However, this person now gained many new comprehensions. “The heavens turn desolate, and the ground ages” and “Time passes unhurriedly” involved the Time Dao.

“His heart never dies; his speech never shows regret. His body is undying”—this meant surpassing space and time. As for what it represented, Xiao Chen could not understand for now.

“Hahaha! Purple Gold Dragon Emperor, you cannot lock me up. My heart lasts through eternity; my will is immortal, passed on without ending. My physical body will never be destroyed. Be it one thousand years or ten thousand years, I will return sooner or later!”

As that person laughed wildly, his voice faded slowly until it vanished.

“Whoosh!”

As Second Palace Master Jue Yang led Xiao Chen out of this extremely suppressive place, the two looked back silently.

Suddenly, Second Palace Master Jue Yang asked, “Feeling regrets?”

Xiao Chen felt stunned for a while, not understanding what the Second Palace Master was referring to.

Did regrets refer to Xiao Chen wasting the request? Or did it mean disappointment at seeing that person in a sorry state and suffering great torture, far from the unparalleled existence that he expected?

However, it did not matter whether Xiao Chen understood him or not. Regardless of which it was, he did not feel regret. He shook his head.

“Second Palace Master, I somewhat do not understand. Does he not feel pain?” Xiao Chen thought about the flame on the altar and the sword wound intentionally left on that person’s chest.

That person’s heart bled constantly. Such pain would be indescribable.

Palace Master Jue Yang replied softly, “His pain is a soul-deep torture. Everything you see is just the tip of the iceberg. This is the most horrifying aspect of the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor. He can make you live in pain, wishing for death, yet you cannot feel it. This pain will accumulate and burst out one thousand years later. Even if one regains freedom, one’s soul and body will crumble.”

This…

These words sent a chill through Xiao Chen. The scene of the Purple Gold Dragon Emperor appeared before his mind’s eye, making him tremble in fear.

“No one can challenge the Dragon Emperor’s prestige. Even the Heavenly Dragon is no exception.”

Palace Master Jue Yang added softly, “Hence, I feel that bringing you to see him is not a bad thing. At the very least, you won’t end up entertaining thoughts that you should not from practicing the Supreme Dragon Fist.”

When Xiao Chen heard that, he could not help asking, “What kind of thoughts does Second Palace Master think that I would have?”

Jue Yang looked at Xiao Chen and replied, “Even without me saying it, you should be very clear on the negative effects of the Supreme Dragon Fist. The rage and resentment it contains can affect a cultivator’s mind at any time. There has never been a flawless Martial Technique. For every pro, there is a con. You are a rare genius of my Heavenly Dragon Palace. My big brother and third brother place heavy hope on you to revitalize the Heavenly Dragon Palace.

“I do not want to see you destroy yourself.”

Xiao Chen’s heart skipped a beat. Then, he said softly, “Many thanks to the three Palace Masters for your care. This junior will definitely remember the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s grace to this junior.”

The Second Palace Master nodded and said, “After you return, cultivate properly and do not rush. The competition between the seven outer palaces will begin in another half-year. Do not think that you have nothing to worry about after gaining the Supreme Dragon Fist. Even within the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s heaven-class core disciples, you are not unrivaled.”

“This junior knows.”

Xiao Chen was very clear on the drawbacks of the Supreme Dragon Fist. He would avoid using it as much as possible.

The Supreme Dragon Fist aside, Xiao Chen was actually already not far from Yi Xin, Li Luo, and Jue Yun.

People like Murong Yan, Wei Hongfei, and Situ Changfeng were only unparalleled among core disciples.

As for the heaven-class core disciples, Xiao Chen could only try to imagine it. He could guess that those heaven-class core disciples with Divine Dragon bloodlines would be even stronger.

Those people had much more resources than the Heavenly Dragon Palace’s heaven-class core disciples. Even with the Supreme Dragon Fist, Xiao Chen would not dare to claim to be unrivaled.

His path was still long.

“Go back, then.”

Palace Master Jue Yang brought Xiao Chen back to the Heavenly Dragon Palace. The moon was still up, but the moonlight had already dimmed significantly.

“Cultivate properly. If you have any questions, you can come and consult us.”

After leaving these words, the Second Palace Master Jue Yang vanished from Xiao Chen’s sight, as though he had never appeared at all.
