The Brilliant Fighting Master

The crowd wasn’t able to clearly see what was happening inside the Wind and Fire Sword Domain, but they still could feel its might. If not for the protection of the Demonic Tree, everyone would have been forced to move back a thousand miles to ensure their safety.

In the Sword Domain, the most potent sword strike attacked both Lin Tian and Lin Tianjian, while the Boundless Sword Soul and Immortal Divine Bird charged forward, circling around at a high-speed. Those two Martial Souls represented wind and fire. They fused together, and lightning arcs started flying around.

Lin Tianjian’s Eternal Sword Soul had also used its most powerful sword move, and the Wind and Fire Sword Domain came to a stop for a brief moment. It was only a brief moment, but it was enough for Lin Tianjian to fuse with his sword and attack Jiang Chen. It was nearly impossible to evade or dodge this sword strike, and many enemies couldn’t evade the attacks of Jiang Chen’s Ksana Sword Method. However, Jiang Chen didn’t plan to elude this strike. Inside the Sword Domain, he was like a great sovereign. Fire and wind, which present everywhere, served as his shield and protectors.

Meanwhile, Lin Tian also used up all the power of his own Constellation Palaces. Already, his attack had reached Jiang Chen. The light beam formed by his fingers was like a shooting star streaking across the sky. It was both powerful and swift. It ended up colliding with the strongest sword move, sending many shock waves through the Sword Domain.

When the Eternal Sword Soul’s attack fell on Jiang Chen, his body alternated between illusory and tangible states and flickered ceaselessly. Everything happened quickly, and the might of all three attacks erupted at the same time.

“You didn’t die!” Lin Tianjian lost control and cried out.

No one had ever managed to survive after being attacked by his perfect Eternal Sword Move. After Lin Tianjian spoke, he immediately suffered an attack from Jiang Chen’s strongest sword move and sustained massive injuries. Lin Tian didn’t suffer the sword’s attack, but the shock waves emanating from such powers colliding almost tore apart the arteries in his heart. As for the Eastern Sovereign Bell, it shattered and disappeared.

After a long while, the Sword Domain descended into silence once again. All three contestants had suffered injuries, but after the Sword Domain had disappeared, the crowd discovered that Jiang Chen was still able to fight. In other words, Jiang Chen was still able to kill the other two people.

“It can’t be true!” The Sword Tower’s disciples couldn’t accept this outcome. How could Lin Tianjian, who was like a deity, suffer defeat?

“It seems like we have all looked down on the possessor of the divine body. He has the Immortal Divine Bird as well as a Sword Soul with four special traits. He’s surely a four Qi cultivator.”

“Lin Tianjian has a Sword Soul with all five special traits. Even so, he can’t rival a divine body that possesses an extreme defensive power.

“He’s strong. He’s really strong!”

“The most amazing thing about him is that he wasn’t trained by any faction. He depended upon himself and walked his own road until today.”

Everyone had a whole new level of respect for the divine body possessor, Jiang Chen. A divine body should have been a great power symbol. But Jiang Chen had always acted alone and didn’t fit into the Heavenly Martial Arts Realm, which was governed by many factions. This was why no one valued him. Nobody had imagined that the divine body possessor didn’t need anyone to train or take care of him. He depended on his power alone to trample on the apex factions’ experts.

“A divine body is really outstanding!”

“What is really impressive about this is that Jiang Chen’s divine body isn’t inborn; it was cultivated by him. He really possesses great willpower and resolution.”

Inborn divine bodies did exist, but there were also some people like Jiang Chen, who cultivated and formed one. Someone who met all the requirements needed to create a divine body would be the center of attention no matter where he went. But, if he really had formed his own divine body, he wouldn’t be able to raise his Realm Level because of the curse.

As can be imagined, Jiang Chen needed great courage to choose such a path. Not everyone was aware that Jiang Chen had ended up choosing a divine body just by accident, through many. At that time, he didn’t know what a divine body’s curse was, and he felt like a divine body would surely be outrageously powerful, and that was why he’d fused the Celestial Phoenix’s pure blood along with the Fire Dragon’s main source. If Jiang Chen explained this out loud, many people would be dumbfounded.

At that moment, Jiang Chen walked lockstep with Lin Tian and Lin Tianjian. The crowd recalled what Jiang Chen had said before, and they couldn’t help but worry about his opponents. The Sword Tower’s disciples became flustered, and the expert protecting them in secret was about to intervene. However, someone interrupted. It was the wielder of the dual-pupils, Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan seemed like a heavenly deity descending into the mortal world as he jumped into the battlefield. He landed before Jiang Chen and blocked his way.

“You can’t carry out a battle with an odd number of contestants,” Ji Yuan said.

When his words echoed, a commotion arose among the audience. It seemed like the Wizard Clan didn’t plan to recognize Jiang Chen’s victory in this match, and the reason for this was what they had stated in the beginning. Only Ji Yuan was allowed to fight two people alone.

“What is the difference? In any case, I’ve already won.” Jiang Chen wouldn’t stick rigidly to such ridiculous rules.

“It’s because those are the rules.” Ji Yuan’s face was expressionless, and his gaze was as calm as a serene lake. One couldn’t discern anything of human nature in him, and it seemed like he was divine. He didn’t plan to explain anything to Jiang Chen. He was merely stating worldly rules.

Recalling Jiang Chen’s temperament, many people became nervous. They couldn’t help but wonder whether the fight would occur in advance. They both looked at each other, but neither was willing to concede. Jiang Chen held his Doctrine Sword firmly, which he still didn’t sheathe, and sword energy surged out. Even while facing this, Ji Yuan still didn’t react or respond.

“If we’ve lost, so be it.”

At such a crucial moment, the defeated Lin Tian, whose injuries had recovered slightly, rushed over and handed out his golden rings. Lin Tianjian clenched his jaw. He wasn’t willing to accept this, but he handed over his golden rings. This circumstance was obviously beyond Yuan’s expectations, and he couldn’t help but look with confusion at those two humans, who both had the last name ‘Lin.’ Lin Tian and Lin Tianjian didn’t say anything and just went back to their seats.

“Those two should have seen that there was a glimmer of hope that Jiang Chen could defeat Ji Yuan.”

“Both of them knew clearly who was right and who was wrong. They understood the severity of this matter.”

“Humans are the rulers of the Nine Realms. They are no longer ants to be trampled by the myriad clans.”

At first, the others didn’t understand, but they quickly realized why this was so, and all of the humans took heart, including Jiang Chen. After he’d obtained those two opponents’ golden rings, he couldn’t help but get lost in his thoughts. Ji Yuan went back to his seat and didn’t say anything else.

“You can go and seize treasure from the hundred layers of Fortune Land,” the Wizard Clan’s Hou Qi reminded Jiang Chen after she counted his golden rings.

“I will leave that opportunity to other people,” Jiang Chen said meaningfully, then went back to his seat.

At that moment, they ascertained that the Human Clan’s divine body possessor would fight against Ji Yuan. Many people became excited and nervous.

“Jiang Chen, my sword techniques didn’t lose to yours. You just depended on your divine body’s great power to block my sword strike,” Lin Tianjian’s voice rang out in Jiang Chen’s ears. He still wasn’t willing to accept the outcome.

“You should rejoice because you managed to live,” Jiang Chen replied.

“What do you mean by that?” Lin Tianjian didn’t understand.

Jiang Chen looked at Luo Cheng and said, “You will get to witness the meaning of a true Sword Doctrine.”

Hearing this, Lin Tianjian was taken aback, and he didn’t move for a long time.

“Should I call you Lu Ping or Jiang Chen?” asked the two women, Shangguan Ru and Han Conger, chuckling softly.

Still, it was obvious from their tone that they blamed him. After all, they had risked their lives together. Yet, in the end, they’d discovered that Lu Ping, who was quite close to them, had never really existed.

“Young Miss Shangguan, Lu Ping is me, and I am Lu Ping. There isn’t any difference.”

Jiang Chen said, “The magical clone was created to facilitate my cultivation.”

“Your technique really is a wondrous magical ability,” Shangguan Ru said. She really admired him!

Han Conger nodded in agreement. At first, Jiang Chen hadn’t been able to sense how strong the One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones Technique truly was. But, as time elapsed, Jiang Chen had realized that it was unstoppable.

All of a sudden, a strange voice transmitted the following announcement: “The Dragon Clan’s main source isn’t something a human can possess.”

Jiang Chen was surprised by this. When he looked at Long Fei, he saw two eyes shining with golden light.
