Fighting was the best way to develop oneself, especially for those eager to enhance their level of fight doctrine.
Jiang Chen had been fighting against people ever since he had entered the small world. Some of his rivals had been stronger, and others had been weaker. It was exactly because of this that he had managed to rise to the top of the Dragon Rise List in a month.
Su Xing was the last obstacle before him on the Dragon Rise List.
People realized that if Jiang Chen could gain the victory, it would actually be a miracle!
He would achieve the top from ninety-eight in just one month.
People on both sides started to step back to give them more space.
Jiang Chen and Su Xing glanced at each other with the same sharp look.
Both of them were swordsmen. One was holding the Red Cloud Sword in his left hand, and the other was holding the evil sword in his left hand.
Suddenly, Su Xing’s chest started to heave up and down rapidly. Distracting thoughts in his mind gradually disappeared. His eyes became clearer.
A majestic spirit of sword soared into the air, carrying an evil scarlet energy.
“Bring it on!” Su Xing took one step forward, extremely aggressive. The evil sword in his hand swept over him.
Jiang Chen forgot about his prejudices against the Evil Cloud Palace. There was no blood contract. There was no bet. The only thing he was thinking of was victory.
He manipulated the bible of the Gaos. Orange light shrouded him as if it were a battle suit.
The Red Cloud Sword hit the evil sword soon. Both of them were extraordinary, their movements full of rapid changes.
Unlike the fight against Murong Long, this wasn’t a competition of pure force anymore. As swordsmen, they were competing with their sword skills.
Su Xing was obviously an inheritor of the doctrine of sword, too. The evil sword emitted a powerful energy.
“Bloody Shadow Sword: Dreamy Shadow!”
Su Xing moved his wrist to exert a brilliant movement.
The energy and the radiance of the sword turned into an endless ferocious light that tinted the sky red.
Half real and half virtual, Su Xing’s body turned into many parts and scattered everywhere.
Time flew backwards. Everything became still.
He and his sword were all around Jiang Chen. They had been together, but then they had scattered in every corner.
However, the sharp sword was still aimed at Jiang Chen. Su Xing’s look was following his breathing more firmly.
The reversed time was like a spring that had been wound to its limit. After it was loosened, the spring started to go back to its original shape in a rapid and violent manner.
Like Su Xing and his sword, it moved in an instant and became one again. They came from different directions with different variations, as fast as a ghost. Jiang Chen seemed to be surrounded by countless flowing lights.
Holding his sword at chest height in front of him, Jiang Chen bellowed in a low voice, “The Sword Method of Ksana: The First Movement.”
Radiances of sword that were thousands of miles long were released. Time went still.
Under mysterious conditions, Jiang Chen managed to see each separate Su Xing holding his sword with long shadows and different movements.
In terms of time, Su Xing wasn’t completely still.
Jiang Chen could see all of the Su Xings’ eyes rolling. Each of them was independent, despite not being real, in order to perplex his rival.
Then Jiang Chen threw his sword out.
For bystanders, it seemed that their swords had been thrown out at almost the same time.
Almost 100 of Su Xing’s shadows dashed over with his sword. Full of movement, they blocked all of Jiang Chen’s chances to survive.
However, Jiang Chen seemed to have found a place to hide in time. He and his sword were dashing swiftly in the shadows.
It sounded imaginable, but in fact, no more than three people managed to see the process clearly. For most of them, it was only a fight between shadows.
They couldn’t see exactly what was happening. They only felt like this was a magnificent fight. The sound of blades hitting against each other kept coming.
“Fantastic.”
Li Nanxing was the one most aware of the situation among all of them. There was surprise in his eyes.
As an old rival of Su Xing’s, he found the sword attack from the latter had been more skillful than before.
And Jiang Chen was doing perfectly. He couldn’t find any flaws.
Stimulated by each other, both of them had shown better performances. This was how important a good rival was.
Li Nanxing suddenly raised his chin. The melancholy in his eyes grew even stronger. He thought to himself, Where is my rival?
Called Young Master Melancholy, he was never sad over women, but for being unable to find a rival.
By then, the two’s swords had stopped and they had retreated more than seventy miles.
When they looked at each other, there was the same glint in their eyes.
It was a glint of surprise, pleasure, and respect.
“Your fight doctrine is worse than mine, but your sword skill is almost as good,” Su Xing exclaimed.
“It’s difficult to get a conclusive result in terms of competitions of martial arts techniques. My sword was greatly limited when facing Murong Long, but you could restrict him,” Jiang Chen said sincerely.
“When he wasn’t a Venerable.” Su Xing shook his head, smiling bitterly. He raised his evil sword to point it at Jiang Chen. He said, “Come on. Let’s finish this.”
“Okay!”
Jiang Chen held his breath and concentrated on his sword.
He has made such impressive progress.
Yue Lansheng hadn’t left yet. Witnessing such a wonderful fight between the two swordsmen, even she didn’t have any prejudices against Jiang Chen.
Seven days ago, Jiang Chen had still been unable to use a sword when he was fighting against Murong Long, but that day, he and Su Xing were tied with each other. Although Su Xing and Murong Long were different types of rivals, if he hadn’t made any progress, he wouldn’t have achieved such a result.
It was true. The origin of fire dragon and the phoenix blood in his body had elevated during those fights.
Jiang Chen had achieved Cloud Seven. Compared to Cloud Seven of the top three on the Dragon Rise List, he was quite special. It also showed his magnificent talent.
“Six Realms of Existence All Eliminated, Thousands of Demons All Subdued!”
Su Xing exerted his unique movement. He was getting exhausted, but the evil sword in his hand had been injected with extremely strong power.
“This is bad! Jiang Chen, he sacrificed his life span to exert this sword attack. That’s unfair!” Yin Shuang said emotionally.
“No. It’s just the price he has to pay for this sword attack. He didn’t do it intentionally,” said Li Nanxing.
He simply warned Jiang Chen about it, but it would depend on Jiang Chen himself to decide what to do.
Before the fight, they hadn’t agreed using a sword was necessary, so Jiang Chen turned to his fists. He was going to crack Su Xing’s power with his fist skill, which was a very smart move.
Yin Shuang and Ying Wushuang thought the same. Since Su Xing had used up his power to exert this movement, it was very difficult to control it. Jiang Chen could die from it.
That was how they differed from Li Xue’er.
Li Xue’er would know what Jiang Chen was going to do and do it anyway without having to ask him.
“The Sword Method of Ksana: The Second Movement!”
Jiang Chen let out a long yell. He wasn’t in his dragon armor. He was going to win this battle as a swordsman.
On the other side, Su Xing’s evil sword had become very terrifying. The sky, a bloody sea, formed into a giant swirl in the end.
An evil sword that was dozens of miles long fell with its tip downward. It was falling towards Jiang Chen.
“Gosh!”
Seeing this, the bystanders hurried to retreat, afraid they would be hurt. Once the evil sword fell onto the ground, it would easily create an abyss.
Su Xing jumped onto the handle of the giant evil sword. The sword fell more quickly. The friction between the blade and the air created endless flames.
“Stop!” Jiang Chen didn’t hide or dodge. He went beside it and disappeared. When he showed up again, he was still beside the giant sword.
Before the evil sword, Su Xing had looked extremely small, but each sword attack of his carried a power that could destroy the world. The evil sword kept shaking.
