As the Water Dragon Black Guard fell, Jiang Chen pulled out his sword, and his sword beam penetrated all eight warriors. The sword beam struck their vital regions and took their lives.
Bing Tian had returned, and his face became filled with shock upon witnessing the eight corpses on the ground. Such power can let him reach the top positions of the Sacred Lord List, Bing Tian thought inwardly.
Jiang Chen slowly sheathed his sword, and it seemed like he was pondering something. It wasn’t related to the people he killed. He was just pondering the Martial Dais, which he still hadn’t mastered fully. After he became a Martial Emperor, he used the Martial Dais to launch an attack, which meant that he would need to use the Martial Dais to release all offensive techniques or sword techniques mastered by him previously. However, it was a pity that he had been pressed and didn’t get to start such a process.
I need an opponent on a par with me, Jiang Chen thought.
What was really a coincidence was that such an aura was approaching this place then. Bing Tian’s face became flushed due to that guy’s aura, and he couldn’t even breathe easily. When Bing Tian was so stifled that he almost ended up sustaining internal injuries, Jiang Chen patted his chest and sent him flying away without injury so that he could keep a safe distance from the guy.
“It’s Shui Wuchen, and he’s the great general everyone was talking about. Let’s quickly leave this place. In any case, Ye Xue had already gotten inside.” Ye Xue had already started the trial, and success and failure would depend entirely on her. They couldn’t be of any help to her. Even if Ye Xue succeeded, she still might not come back through the same road.
“You should leave first without me.” Jiang Chen decided to stay here and see this pursuer of Ye Xue.
After a short while, the Water Spirit Clan’s great general arrived. His stature was similar to Jiang Che’s, and he wore a dark golden armor, with a silver cape draped over his shoulder that fluttered in the wind. The general’s face had sharp features, and he wore a stern, ice-cold expression. When the pair of star-like eyes below his thick brows sighted the eight corpses, they shone with a cold glint.
“Is it you who have killed them?” Shui Wuchen looked at the sole person still standing here.
“It was me.” Jiang Chen didn’t deny it.
“What is your name?” Shui Wuchen pulled out his swords and spoke coldly.
“Tian…forget that, it’s Jiang Chen,” Jiang Chen stated his true name. He didn’t fear the Human Emperor any longer, and he even wanted to cause trouble for him.
“I’m Shui Wuchen, the Water Spirit Clan’s great general.” Shui Wuchen’s weapon was a fine spear, which had a thin head that nearly formed a straight line with the rest of the spear. As Shui Wuchen built up power, cyan light started spiraling around the spear, and, when it reached the spearhead, the light turned into a dragon, which roared at the sky.
“Pay for it with your life.” As Shui Wuchen’s voice echoed out, he swept everything in front of him with his spear and charged forward. A water dragon appeared here once again and it flew forward. The disparity between it and the eight warriors’ water dragon was like the disparity between a hill and a towering mountain. However, as long as it was formed by water, it could conduct electricity, and Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Fault Sword had Heavenly God Lightning intertwining around it.
“Worldly Wind and Lightning: Lightning Power Sword!” Jiang Chen thrust his sword forward, and lightning streaked across the sky and bombarded the water dragon forcefully. The water dragon wasn’t destroyed by it. But, the lightning power still flickered around among the water, and the water dragon seemed quite dazzling and gorgeous.
However, Jiang Chen discovered then that this guy’s water dragon didn’t fear electricity for some unknown reason.
“Sweep him!”
Even when the lightning fell upon Shui Wuchen’s body, it only caused his dark golden armor to shine brightly, and he wasn’t affected by it. He then continued using his move which was able to annihilate myriad armies. His water dragon’s spiritual power rose to the pinnacle, and it attacked along with the Heavenly God Lightning.
“How is this possible?” It was now Jiang Chen’s turn to state such words.
“Worldly Wind and Lightning: Wind Power Sword!” Jiang Chen used his whole power and immediately changed his move for another one. But, when he just started using Wind Power Sword, the water dragon had already pounced on him. The Sword Wind tore the water dragon in half, while the lightning in the water gave rise to many sparks due to such intense friction. It was obvious from Jiang Chen’s expression that this was a strenuous task, and even though he strived hard to persevere, his Heavenly Fault Sword still swayed slightly.
The incomplete Wind Power Sword Move’s energy scattered, while Jiang Chen fell into the water dragon. He lost control of his body, and he got dizzy as he was swung around.
“Oscillation!” Shui Wuchen waved his spear, and a whirlpool appeared among the water dragon, and Jiang Chen was precisely at the center of the whirlpool. When the whirlpool almost became like a black hole, Shui Wuchen built up enough power, and thrust his spear forward.
Rumble!
The whole water dragon exploded and turned into mist due to such a spear strike, and even the void shook intensely due to such a strike.
As expected of a great general with 100 victories! Bing Tian, who was in a distant place witnessing such a sight, muttered to himself. Such a spear strike’s destructive power would be able to tear apart even the strongest objects.
“Not bad!” When Bing TIan had just assumed that it would be difficult for Jiang Chen to survive, the latter appeared behind Shui Wuchen. At such a crucial juncture, Jiang Chen used a Foot Apart World Technique to dodge such an attack. He was still left with his blood and energy churning, while his breathing became rough.
“Boundless Mysterious Water, one of the Four Great Primordial Spirits.” This was a powerful force similar to the Solar Golden Flame among his opponent’s spiritual power. This was why it couldn’t be restrained by lightning. Instead, it even used lightning power to attack him.
“You aren’t weak either.” Shui Wuchen was surprised by this, and he adjusted himself slightly and prepared for the next attack.
Jiang Chen took a deep breath and collected all his Heavenly God Lightning and left just the whistling Sword Wind. The next second, Jiang Chen attacked with his sword, and he started a close-quarters attack. His Sword Wind was transforming ceaselessly, and it was able to attack and defend at the same time.
“You shouldn’t have chosen me to practice on.” Shui Wuchen had seen through his opponent’s motives and turned his hand around and waved his spear. A cyan light started spiraling around his body. They both exchanged blows with their weapons and had an intense confrontation. Shui Wuchen’s Realm Level was at the late-stage of the Martial Emperor Realm, while he also possessed Boundless Mysterious Power and was a Water Spirit. He possessed great fighting prowess!
But Jiang Chen was becoming fiercer the more he fought. Real battles were the best way of making quick progress.
“Extermination!” Shui Wuchen wouldn’t allow him to make any progress, and he attacked more swiftly and violently, while the Cyan Energy Light formed a stream.
Jiang Chen bore the greater pressure, and he realized that he mustn’t hold anything back. “You have protected Ye Xue in the Spirit Zone, haven’t you?” Jiang Chen asked.
Upon hearing the name mentioned by Jiang Chen, Shui Wuchen had an intense reaction. “What about it?” Shui Wuchen wasn’t aware yet of the relationship between Jiang Chen and Ye Xue.
“I will spare your life after I force you to give up on your presumptuous aims.” Jiang Chen pulled out the Red Cloud Sword with his right hand, and both wind and fire started raging around, while the Boundless Sword Soul and the Immortal Divine Bird appeared at the same time. The Immortal Sword Spirit fused along with the Wind and Fire Rules. It seemed a natural and perfect fusion, and there weren’t any imperfections like when he used the Wind and Fire Swords Realm. Jiang Chen’s current Wind and Fire Swords Realm was already above the tenth level, and as he used it along with the Solar Golden Flame, the might of Shui Wuchen’s Boundless Mysterious Water became lower.
“Ice is the pinnacle of water, and it’s also the Water Spirits’ fate. If you don’t evolve, you will be eliminated.”
Shui Wuchen was taken aback by this, and he said, “If I get with Ye Xue, I will demonstrate it to the Water Spirit Clan, and we will change the fate of the whole Spirit Zone.”
Upon hearing him speak so righteously, Jiang Chen sneered coldly several times and spoke in mockery, “It’s a pity that it’s only your own wishful thinking.”
“It’s because a human like you is bothering us.” Shui Wuchen, who had kept his calm all along, lost control of himself, and he shouted sinisterly, while his spear moved around like a dragon. “You still don’t know how to use a Martial Dais well, and trying to use the Wind and Fire Rules with a Sword Spirit is above your capabilities. Cut him apart!” Shui Wuchen thrust his spear forward with his whole power.
Shui Wuchen had stated a crucial matter. Jiang Chen’s fighting prowess had already risen greatly. But he wasn’t able to use any move which needed building up power.
“Worldly Wind and Lightning! Heavenly Power Sword.” Jiang Chen used a sword move, which he still hadn’t mastered, and the Wind and Fire Rules started transforming crazily, while still on his two swords.
