The Brilliant Fighting Master

Facing Zhang Tian’s most powerful strike, Jiang Chen was safe and sound.

Zhang Tian didn’t even get to see Jiang Chen having any difficulty warding him off. Jiang Chen’s body had been covered with a silver radiance that was a translucent magical armor.

Zhang Tian lunged forward like a savage beast and broke the tip of his own sword off.

“How did this happen? Why did this happen?”

Zhang Tian was stunned, in utter disbelief, and he even doubted that the person in front of him really was Jiang Chen.

The last time they had seen each other, Jiang Chen had been defeated by him and had had to flee to the Devil’s Mountain. No one had even known for sure if he would survive.

“How could this happen now that they had met again? Was it Zhang Tian’s turn to take to his heels?”

“The Will of the Natural Law, the Will of the Natural Law…”

Zhang Tian thought of something and started to mumble to himself. He looked as if he had lost his soul.

He had witnessed with his own eyes how Jiang Chen had been saved by the Will of the Natural Law the last time they’d been together.

Just like Xiao Hongxue, Zhang Tian was filled with resentment and bitterness.

“For the past three years, he must have had many great opportunities with his dumb luck. That’s definitely the only reason he could have become this powerful.

“Why? Why? Just because of his constant wisecracking that only he thinks is funny?”

Full of rancor and jealousy, Zhang Tian couldn’t be resigned to this situation.

But he also felt completely powerless as Jiang Chen started walking up to him.

In the end, he became completely deranged. His eyes turned blood-red.

“Let’s die together!” As he shouted this, Zhang Tian straightaway chose to blow himself up even though he had not been severely injured.

It stunned Shen Xingchen and the others. They even forgot to run away.

Usually, only people who were critically wounded would choose such an extreme way to die.

Just as certain religions believed that people who commit suicide would not be forgiven, martial arts practitioners would be spurned by the Will of the Natural Law if they blew themselves up.

Most important, the process of blowing oneself up was extremely excruciating.

The person compressed all the power in his entire body into a single point and destroyed all his internal organs, including tendons and bones.

After the inside of the body had been completely wrecked, he would blow up like fireworks while demolishing everything around him.

“You choose the way of a coward even when you die.”

Jiang Chen didn’t seem to look nervous. It looked as if he would just let Zhang Tian blow himself up.

It frightened Shen Xingchen and the others a great deal. They wanted to remind Jiang Chen of the aftermath of a suicide bomb. On second thought, however, it was more important for them to run away to save their own lives.

Several people scurried away, trying to get as far as possible from the blast.

“Ha, ha, ha, I would rather be dead than mediocre!” Zhang Tian let out his final raving commentary. A blinding light shone from inside of his body.

Jiang Chen saw it, yet didn’t try to hide away. On the contrary, he came up to Zhang Tian’s side and put his hand on Zhang Tian’s shoulder.

“What do you want to do?”

Just as Zhang Tian finished his sentence, he realized the scene in front of eyes was completely different. He was alone in the sky, high up, without anyone around.

“You actually got one thing right. Anyone who is related to the Sovereign Spirit Reincarnation will be highly accomplished, such as me.”

After leaving Zhang Tian with this line, Jiang Chen disappeared into thin air again.

As a result, Zhang Tian was left alone high up in the sky, far away from other people.

The suicide was irreversible. For a moment, there were no words to describe Zhang Tian’s feelings.

“No!”

A strident blast sounded after his last cry.

After the Sword King of Breeze died, his intensive energy started a hurricane that blasted in all directions.

On the ground, the group of people who had prepared for the big explosion didn’t hear any sounds after a long time. They stopped running and turned around.

They found that neither Jiang Chen nor Zhang Tian were in their original places.

“Did something happen?”

“Could it all have been a hallucination? There was no Chen Xin or Zhang Tian?”

“Your imagination is really ridiculous.”

“Turns out Chen Xin is Jiang Chen!”

Various voices started talking. Everyone was equally shocked.

Only Shen Xingchen had a very complicated expression on her face.

“Folks.”

Just at that time, Jiang Chen reappeared in their sights again.

They were all visibly startled. Fang Shen and Deng Xin were especially afraid to look Jiang Chen directly in the eyes.

Even Yang Zong, who worshiped Jiang Chen, didn’t dare to approach him. However, his eyes shone brightly.

Everything they had to say was leading to the same place, which was why Jiang Chen would stay with them.

“Miss Shen, let’s have a talk,” Jiang Chen said.

They didn’t need to find another place this time. Everyone else dispersed on their own.

“Young Master Jiang Chen, did you also come for the Alien Flame? I heard that you’re also an amazing apothecary.”

Shen Xingchen’s feelings were complex. On the one hand, she knew that Jiang Chen had used her to come underground to find the Alien Flame.

The Alien Flame was definitely out of her reach now.

Nonetheless, in front of Jiang Chen who was much more powerful than she was, she couldn’t even be angry as she had been the one who had recruited him in the first place.

“Yes, however, the alien flame here is called the true source of fire. It ranks first on the Alien Flame List, and is one of the ten Main Flames as well,” Jiang Chen said.

“The true source of fire?! I thought that only existed in myths and fairy tales.” Shen Xingchen exclaimed with surprise.

“There is only a spark of the fire here. Only this ring on my hand can absorb it. Then I will smelt it through the ring. So no one else can take the fire away for themselves, including you.”

Jiang Chen said, “Because I didn’t know where the entrance to the underground was and couldn’t ask around directly in Wind Cloud City, I used you. I apologize for that.”

“It’s me who came to you. And like you said, I don’t have a way to take away the true source of fire anyway.” Shen Xingchen smiled bitterly.

“Then, consider this as my compensation to you.”

Jiang Chen waved his hand and a beam of light shot into Shen Xingchen’s head.

Shen Xingchen was stunned at first. Then she realized that countless words had appeared in her head and formed a book.

“God!”

After reading the contents of the book clearly, Shen Xingchen’s small mouth opened wide and her pupils dilated.

“This is the Elixirs Scripture! The Elixirs Scripture! And it’s the complete version!”

Shen Xingchen shouted with excitement.

500 years ago, the Elixirs Scripture brought about a revolution and changed the entire face of the apothecary profession. But, most important, that Elixirs Scripture was incomplete.

Some people said that a person could become an Elixir Saint or even an Elixir God if he obtained the complete Elixirs Scripture.

Shen Xingchen was staggered. She stood still as if she had been electrified by lightning.

As an apothecary, she knew for sure that the Elixirs Scripture had been written by Jiang Chen, the First Child of the Sacred Zone, 500 years ago.

The person in front of her now was also named Jiang Chen, and also had astonishing achievements as an apothecary.

“Are you the reincarnation of Jiang Chen?”

Ever since the Sovereign Spirit Reincarnations had surfaced, a reincarnation like this would not have been impossible.

Now Shen Xingchen felt even luckier for seeing her idol’s reincarnation in person than for receiving the Elixirs Scripture.

“Sort of.”

At this time, it had become unnecessary for Jiang Chen to cover it up as he had before. He could answer or not answer the question at will.

It was the confidence he had achieved after becoming so powerful.

“Miss Shen, what else do you know about this underground world?

“Mmm? Can you give me a moment?”

Just when Jiang Chen was about to ask about the underground world, he detected something and vanished.

He reappeared in the sky where Zhang Tian had suicided.

“That’s quite unexpected.”

A windstorm was blowing in the firmament. To Jiang Chen’s surprise, there was energy contained in the gales.

It was the same conceptual difference between an ordinary fire and the Solar Golden Flame.

These gales with energy were the Void Divine Wind that Jiang Chen had rarely encountered.

“It’s pretty good to have this kind of result.”

Jiang Chen wasn’t going to waste anything. He left a practicing body there to absorb the energy.
