Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation Chapter 1397

Chapter 1397 (Raw 1388): Ice and Fire Berserk Saber
Wen Ziran was filled with some anticipation. He anticipated the instant the curtains opened, letting him see the true face of this Shadowless Saber Sovereign.
The Shadowless Saber Sovereign never left his war chariot, never showing himself.
He was low-key and steady but very strong. At this point, he was the most mysterious person in the Kunlun Continent. This was especially so in the world of bladesmen. The appearance of the Shadowless Saber Sovereign had kicked up a huge storm and sent out an overwhelming wave.
Everyone discussed this person's accomplishments in Saber Techniques. He could control sabers from a distance and could do it with seven Divine Weapons simultaneously. Such methods were unheard-of and unprecedented.
Since this person rose up in this golden age, many people guessed that this person was young. He should be a heaven-defying cultivator of the younger generation who suddenly rose up in this golden age, one that was no weaker than Di Wuque, Bai Wuxue, and the other demonic geniuses.
However, Wen Ziran was disappointed. The invitation, which contained a sharp brilliance and boundless aura, turned completely silent after it flew to the war chariot. It was like a dragon suddenly became a snake.
The invitation containing an unparalleled sharpness turned into a gently drifting piece of paper. Only a corner of the war chariot's curtain opened, and a pale arm stretched out to gently pinch the invitation and catch it.
Wen Ziran was completely stunned. His thoughts blanked out for a while. This was overly exaggerated.
He could feel that the aura of the person in the war chariot absolutely did not surpass Sovereign Martial Emperor. However, the feeling it gave him was as deep, profound, and unpredictable as one. It was illogical.
"On the seventeenth of the eighth month, in the Starry Heavens outside the domain, Heavenly Saber Mountain Manor…I will definitely be there when it happens. Many thanks for your invitation."
Xiao Chen read out the words on the invitation. Without considering for long, he quickly agreed.
"Ta! Ta! Ta!"
The horses galloped, kicking up a cloud of dust as they drew the war chariot away. They turned into a black beam of light, brushing by Wen Ziran.
The instant the war chariot left, Wen Ziran startled to his senses. He showed a grave expression as he muttered, "Shadowless Saber Sovereign. Where did such a powerful being come from? Anyhow, he already agreed to the invitation. The stronger he is, the most exciting the tea party will be. This is good."
Wen Ziran, who had arrived with a wanton brilliance, shook his head and left this place with a dim and disappointed expression.
After Wen Ziran advanced to Martial Emperor, the Saber Sovereign had put in even more effort to nurture him. Wen Ziran had also put in a lot of effort himself. In addition, his talent surpassed that of others. In this golden age, he was considered a peak outstanding talent as well. Now that he was a Fifth Heaven Martial Emperor, he was already capable of taking charge.
However, this encounter today dealt him a significant blow.

"Elder Brother White Robes, are you really going to participate in this Saber Dao tea party?" Little Three asked while blinking. "Younger Sister Ao Jiao has not woken up yet. Many experts will be attending. I'm afraid that you will not be able to escape from that place."
Although the Shadowless Saber Sovereign did not participate in the conflicts of the world, only seeking the Saber Dao and challenging various bladesmen of different paths, his fame had already spread throughout the Kunlun Realm. With such strength, he had attracted the attention of the various Holy Lands and major characters. More than just one or two people were curious about his identity. At that time, it would be hard to avoid trouble.
When Xiao Chen heard this, he looked at the Lunar Shadow Saber beside him, his eyes showing helplessness.
Four years ago, Ao Jiao said, "Wait for me to wake up, and the Lunar Shadow Saber will be a Transcendent Divine Weapon." After that, she entered the Lunar Shadow Saber and fell into a deep sleep.
Xiao Chen had been waiting for four years, but Ao Jiao still had not woken up. He could not draw the Lunar Shadow Saber, either. Since he was not aware of her condition, he could not help worrying.
"It's fine. If I want to leave, no one can stop me."
Xiao Chen's tone was mild, but the absolute confidence in it was undoubtable.
When the first light of sunrise appeared, Gentle Cloud City was already visible in the distance, so Xiao Chen reviewed the information that he obtained.
This bladesman who excelled at the twin sabers was an old man with a family name of Qin, who was already more than five hundred years old. One saber was known as Fire, and the other was known as Ice. He was able to take the two opposing attributes and perfectly merge them into his own Saber Dao.
This bladesman had a strange temper and rarely interacted with others. He was known as Eccentric Qin and was only a Second Heaven Martial Emperor.
Xiao Chen guessed that the reason why Eccentric Qin's cultivation was slow was due to the distraction of his Twin Saber Dao. Furthermore, he had to comprehend two different kinds of wills at the same time, delaying his cultivation.
It was very difficult to get the best of both worlds; there would definitely be some compromise.
However, this was not what Xiao Chen needed to consider. What he cared about was seeing how profound his Ice and Fire Twin Sabers were.
As the ancients said, "There is something to learn from everyone."
In the past five years of wandering the Kunlun Realm, Xiao Chen had visited various experts of the Saber Dao. This saying touched him deeply. No matter how talented one was, it would be impossible for one to consider things from every aspect, figuring out everything.
Some people would get a sudden flash of inspiration, making one have a whole new level of respect for them and applaud them.
For the past five years, Xiao Chen had been warning himself not to get arrogant and haughty.
The unsheathed saber at the front of the war chariot was Pride of the Seven Deadly Sins. This saber was very prideful; no scabbard could contain it.
Xiao Chen liked to use it to kill Demons and arrogant people. With each one it killed, it became more humble.
The black war chariot stopped in the clouds, and Xiao Chen's Spiritual Sense separated into thousands of strands, shooting out in all directions.
Xiao Chen did not have any intel on Eccentric Qin's precise location. Hence, he could only search for him by spreading a net.
However, no matter how a bladesman hid the saber intent of their body, they could not hide that fluctuation at all times.
The main reason why Wen Ziran could find Xiao Chen was his detection of the very weak saber intent fluctuations that Xiao Chen gave off.
Given the sensitivity of Xiao Chen's current Spiritual Sense and his accomplishment in Saber Techniques, finding a Martial Emperor bladesman was even easier for him than for Wen Xiran.
After five or six breaths, Xiao Chen opened his eyes and withdrew his Spiritual Sense.
"Did you find him this quickly?" Little Three asked with some disbelief. This was somewhat unusually fast.
Xiao Chen nodded and replied, "I found him. However, the situation seems off. He is emitting a heavy killing intent."
"Whoosh!"
Right after Xiao Chen spoke, the black war chariot turned into a beam of light speeding towards a mountain north of Gentle Cloud City.
Eccentric Qin's killing intent came from the waist of that mountain. The war chariot landed silently on that mountain's summit.
While in the war chariot, Xiao Chen opened his Heavenly Eye. He immediately could see through the war chariot, seeing everything on the entire mountain, every grass, tree, bird, beast, and bug; nothing was left out.
"I found him!"
At a mountain manor halfway up the mountain, there was an old man in long, blue robes glaring at a group of Demons, radiating a heavy killing intent.
Two different auras—red and white—circled the blue-robed old man. Ice and fire mixed, looking extremely strange.
The corpses of a few youths lay in the middle of the confrontation. They clearly were in a sorry state when they died. Their corpses were dry with their hearts dug out. This was the typical way the Deep Abyss Demonic World's Blood Demons killed: draining the blood and digging out the heart.
"Eccentric Qin, your disciples are all dead. Hand over the manual for your Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art. At the very least, your Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art will have an inheritor, right?"
"It is your fortune that our Crown Scion fancies your Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art. Don't worry. With the Crown Scion's talent, he can definitely bring glory to your Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art!"
"Hurry up! We are not that patient. If you hand it over now, we can spare your life. Otherwise, you will end up like your disciples."
There were five Demons, all of them Martial Emperors. One of them had a purple mark on his forehead. This person had the highest cultivation, a Fourth Heaven Martial Emperor.
"Scram! Even if this old man dies, I will not hand over the Ice and Fire Berserk Saber Art to Demons like you!" Eccentric Qin snarled, not giving them any face.
The Blood Demon royal clan disciple with the purple mark on his forehead said indifferently, "In that case, you can die!"
Right after the royal clan Demon spoke, his four subordinates laughed coldly and charged at Eccentric Qin.
Fighting against four alone, with Eccentric Qin's cultivation of Second Heaven Martial Emperor, there was no chance of victory. Furthermore, there was still the royal clan disciple, who had not made a move yet. Eccentric Qin despaired, feeling that he had no hope of surviving this.
He felt hatred. If he had not been obsessed with this Ice and Fire Berserk Saber, he would at the very least be a Fourth Heaven Martial Emperor. Even if he could not defeat these Demons, it would still have been easy for him to flee.
