The footsteps had a unique rhythm, which reminded them of one man. They looked over. As anticipated by the sound of his footsteps, they saw Ji Yuan, who had been killed, stand there alive again.
“Is that his transformation body?!”
Everyone was shocked.
Ji Yuan had been displaying a superb strength. Had that been just a transformation body, and his true body had not appeared until this moment? According to the proportions of fighting power that the transformation body and the true body accounted for, Ji Yuan would be as strong as a Martial Emperor.
“No, that wasn’t a transformation body. We would have noticed it.”
“What is it then? Witchcraft?”
“It’s an Eye Technique! The true self and the false self!” The Ancient Race were the first to realize what was going on.
“The true self and the false self? Was the one fighting with Jiang Chen the false self?”
Soon, after much discussion, people came to understand what the true self and the false self were. It was an Eye Technique that only dual-pupils wielders could exert. It was usually used with witchcraft. The false self had about 70 percent of the fighting power of the true self. Most important, none of the attacks the false self received would affect the true self! In other words, if Jiang Chen had launched that sword attack toward the true self, it would not injure the latter at all.
“Why is that?” The humans were all shocked by such a mysterious and powerful Eye Technique. No technique or method in the world could go against the laws of nature. How could a solid attack be ignored in this way?
However, the Ancients, who knew the Eye Technique quite well, did not look as if they were joking. “What do you think the dual pupils are for? Do you think they were just so some could have different eyes?” The Ancient Race was pleased to see the reactions. They started to gloat after the shock.
“Dual pupils are the symbols of royalty. You certainly cannot understand them by common sense.”
“Will the fight continue?”
“Of course. Jiang Chen only defeated the false self. He didn’t really defeat Ji Yuan.”
“Besides, who can guarantee this Ji Yuan is the true self?”
“Exactly. The divine body isn’t the only one allowed to have so many practicing bodies.”
Ji Yuan came back onto the battlefield while the discussion was going on. His black clothes were changed. He was wearing dark red armor, armed to the teeth and quite majestic. He did not speak, but exerted the witchcraft Three Heads and Six Arms directly. The Golden Divine Spear appeared out of nowhere. It changed to six short-handled weapons again.
“You should feel honored. You are strong, but not strong enough,” Ji Yuan said.
Shrugging his shoulders, Jiang Chen said in a sarcastic tone, “Stop bluffing. Bring it on.”
“Okay, as you wish.” Ji Yuan replied using Jiang Chen’s pet phrase. Then he launched another attack. The attacking method was the same. He approached Jiang Chen first and then attacked with thunderbolts. This time, the fighting power increased by more than 20 times because of Three Heads and Six Arms.
“Sword Spirit of Wind and Cloud: Peerless Beauty!”
Jiang Chen also exerted the same movement as before. He believed he would succeed. With the law of wind combined with thousands of Holy Thunders, his sword momentum was overwhelming and devastating. Attacked by it, Ji Yuan would end up the same as before.
However, a beam flew out of Ji Yuan’s eyes. All of the blades were absorbed by the beam, as if they were taken to another world. They completely vanished.
“What?! I can’t believe this is true.” He was immune to the same attack, no matter how powerful it was! Jiang Chen was surprised. And Ji Yuan did not seem to have made a big effort. He went on attacking. Beaten by the six arms unceasingly, Jiang Chen was heavily injured—he received some really hard beatings.
“The Fury of Thunder!”
Then, he obliged Ji Yuan to retreat by using his holy method so that he could stop to regulate his breathing. His injuries were recovering at a speed that could be observed by the naked eye. Soon, he was totally fine again.
“The divine body is great indeed.” The onlookers could not help but admire Jiang Chen.
“Thunderbolt Martial Soul!” Jiang Chen called the Thunderbolt Martial Soul out. Meanwhile, he raised the Heavenly Fault Sword high so that the thunder sword could also get the gains of the Doctrine Sword.
“The Ultimate Sword Soul!” Then the Doctrine Sword called the sword soul out.
“A Short Distance Away and Yet Poles Apart!”
“The Sword Method of Ksana: the third movement!”
After accumulating force, he exerted his movements one after another. They broke out instantly. Jiang Chen interpreted fastness and fierceness in a perfect way. His attacks were as powerful as Ji Yuan’s Three Heads and Six Arms.
The fight was at white heat. The two tangled together, giving the onlookers a terrifying feeling.
“Even a fight between Martial Emperors wouldn’t be greater than this.” Someone commented.
Many people nodded. Some Martial Emperors’ fights were not even as great as this one.
“They are both geniuses. No matter which one survives, he’ll go down in history.”
“Only one of them will survive today. What a pity.” They were on tenterhooks after realizing this. They felt so nervous that they could not even breathe.
Jiang Chen’s sword momentum was explosive, while the power of Ji Yuan’s Three Heads and Six Arms soared progressively. As a result, after gaining a brief advantage, Jiang Chen’s sword momentum seemed to lack in strength.
“Immortal!”
However, currently, Jiang Chen’s force seemed to be the source of his strength. He exerted the Immortal Doctrine of Sword silently. The weakened sword momentum soared into a sublime level instantly. He cut off one of Ji Yuan’s hands directly!
“No way. What sword doctrine is this? Why doesn’t it have any restrictions? What is its sword spirit?” The disciples from the Sword Tower saw something in it, especially Lin Tianjian. He sprang to the feet due to the shock. The Eternal Doctrine of Sword!—its eternal sword spirit was unique in the world. It was the number one of the Four Great Sword Doctrines. However, he could not see any specific sword spirit in Jiang Chen’s sword attack, as if everything in the world could represent his sword spirit. As soon as he exerted the force of the sword doctrine, even the Thunderbolt Martial Soul became immortal. It was incredible.
“The eternal sword spirit, the eternal ksana.”
Then the disciples from the Sword Tower were not surprised anymore. They were petrified instead. They could not believe they had seen the eternal ksana that belonged to the Eternal Doctrine of Sword exclusively in Jiang Chen’s sword attack.
“It’s not a complete Eternal Sword Spirit!” It did not take Lin Tianjian long to find out Jiang Chen’s Eternal Sword Spirit was quite superficial. He assumed that Jiang Chen had just learned it in some blow exchange. “He isn’t afraid this might turn out to be a travesty?” Lin Tianjian was puzzled. If he had learned it simply by watching it, the Four Great Sword Doctrines would be ridiculous.
“Immortal!” However, the superficial Eternal Doctrine of Sword had something new in Jiang Chen’s Immortal Doctrine of Sword. Aside from whether it was correct, its effect could be compared to Lin Tianjian’s complete Eternal Ksana.
People felt as if the area in which Ji Yuan was had been frozen. When the fight ended, his remaining five fingers and his head had all been cut off.
“Dreadful. Really dreadful.” The impression they got from Jiang Chen’s performance was exactly the same as that they had gotten from Ji Yuan defeating Yao Zhixuan and Long Fei.
“Ha, ha, ha, ha.” However, Ji Yuan, heavily injured, burst out laughing. A powerful energy gushed out of his body. It shook his body into a pile of blood. As the onlookers reeled with shock, footsteps came again.
“No way. Another false self?”
“Jiang Chen’s two practicing bodies amazed everyone. And now we are witnessing Ji Yuan’s false selves going beyond the limit!”
“How many false selves can he have? If he has a lot, does it mean he can be immune to all attacks?”
The humans were all worrying about the true self and the false self. They thought it was against nature.
However, the Ancients kept saying the same thing and gloating. “Well, what did you think dual-pupils wielders can do? You think it’s only the title that sounds great?”
