“It can be considered a success.” Jiang Chen jumped back to the Fourth Palace’s roof, and then landed on the ground before the cliff. People couldn’t fly in the Doctrine Palace, and several thousand feet was an unreachable height for them, but descending was quite easy. His Nine Clouds Divine Body’s power was great enough to bear the force of the impact when he landed, but a big pothole was still left on the ground.
When people heard his reply, they looked at each other in dismay. They did not understand what he meant.
“If you didn’t pass it successfully, just say so.” Fei Yu sneered. He didn’t believe that Jiang Chen would have such an attitude if he had passed it smoothly.
“Rather than caring about whether I have passed it or not, you would better care about your own life,” Jiang Chen said.
“I will keep you company!” Fei Yu raised his brows. There wasn’t any fear on his face. As long as Jiang Chen hadn’t passed the Fifth Palace successfully, the difference between them was just that Jiang Chen had climbed up the cliff. Fei Yu believed that such a matter could be overlooked in a real battle. However, Fei Yu’s ears twitched suddenly, as if he had just heard something. His prideful face’s expression changed, and disbelief appeared in his eyes. Fei Yu took a look at Jiang Chen, before he looked once again at the top of the cliff.
“Let’s just fight in the Title Battle.” Fei Yu had changed his mind. No one could believe this because Fei Yu had stayed here just to wait for Jiang Chen and kill him. Now he had given up of his own accord. As they mulled over his former behavior, the other people guessed something. A Fourth Palace’s genius wasn’t worth anything in comparison to a Fifth Palace’s genius. ( NovelFull )
“Do you feel like you can fight any time you want and give up any time you want?” Jiang Chen’s gaze was filled with disdain. He looked down upon this person. If he had been human, he would be just a contemptible person who feared the strong and bullied the weak. It was only because of his status as a Spirit that he was this arrogant.
“If I want to leave, can you stop me?” Fei Yu flew into a rage out of humiliation, especially since he was being egged on by Jiang Chen’s gaze. Even if he wasn’t a match for Jiang Chen, he still could come and go freely.
“You thought too highly of yourself. I need just a single sword strike. If you can dodge it, I will allow you to leave,” Jiang Chen said.
Fei Yu didn’t utter a word in response because he hated what Jiang Chen had just said. What did he mean by allowing him to leave? If he wanted to leave, no one could stop him. Fei Yu planned to escape before Jiang Chen even thrust his sword, which would embarrass Jiang Chen. Even though Jiang Chen said he would make a sword strike, it still seemed like he didn’t plan to unsheathe his sword. He just took several steps forward leisurely. He didn’t seem like someone who was about to take a life.
However, all the people could feel a sharp sword energy swirling here. It was present everywhere.
“First Sword! Cutting!” Jiang Chen still didn’t unsheathe his sword and just imitated his father. He used the sword art, stuck two fingers together, and pointed toward the air.
This was the second time he would use the Sword Scripture in a battle. What was different from the previous time was that another word was added to the sword move. The word cutting was added to it because of his Sword Doctrine’s cultivation progress.
Cutting was what was recommended when his Sword Doctrine reached great master level, and it was also what he had considered when fighting against 10,000 Divine Soldiers and Divine Generals.
Jiang Chen chose Fei Yu as a target for trying this sword move.
“Awful!” Fei Yu regretted his actions greatly. This sword strike was profound and peerless. He didn’t have any confidence in dodging it.
“Void Tearing Steps!” Fei Yu used his special skill. This was a great technique he had learned while he was hiding from the Seedlings Extermination Operation.
“Well?” Jiang Chen was surprised by this. His opponent’s martial technique was famous. After one learned it completely and reached its pinnacle, one could pass through everything, and there wasn’t any formation or barrier that could stop its user. It was no wonder that Fei Yu was this calm and composed.
“I will take your head in the Title Battle.” Fei Yu left these words behind, while a whirlwind appeared beneath his feet. He took a step forward into it, before he disappeared completely.
“What kind of Spirit technique is this?” All of the onlookers were dumbfounded. It was really shocking for someone to get in touch with the space aspect while still in the Celestial Venerable Realm. However, Jiang Chen still didn’t stop his movement, and his sword attack was as imposing as before.
A divine sword appeared and streaked through the air. It was so quick that no one could discern which direction it went in, and they all didn’t regain their senses until they heard a miserable scream. It could be seen that Fei Yu fell from the void in the Third Palace. His back had suffered a heavy attack and was drenched in blood.
“You didn’t manage to learn even a superficial part of it, yet you still assumed that I can’t kill you?” Jiang Chen sneered coldly as he spoke.
Fei Yu escaped into the void, and it could be said that such a move was stunning. However, Jiang Chen’s sword move tore the void apart and struck his enemy. It was really powerful! Fei Yu was now lying on the ground without moving an inch. It was unknown whether he was still alive.
“Look over there!” Someone pointed toward Fei Yu. Two old men had already appeared there and were protecting Fei Yu. One of them was helping Fei Yu consume a life-saving elixir, while the other was treating the injury on his back. After a short while, the state of Fei Yu’s injuries turned for the better, but he was still unconscious and was taken away by one of the old men.
The other old man turned. He met Jiang Chen’s gaze even though they were separated by more than 3,000 feet. His gaze was as sharp as knives and possessed the Ice Spirit’s special traits, which caused a chilly air to sweep over Jiang Chen’s surroundings. However, Jiang Chen was still unmoved. Since he chose to attack, he had already considered this matter properly. Regardless of Fei Yu’s relationship with his senior sister, this person must still be killed.
The old man’s gaze fell on the end on Jiang Chen’s Divine Fire Ring and he gave up on any idea of attacking him. He just left decisively, which announced the end of this small incident. ( NovelFull )
“You are too ruthless! Fei Yu is surely a member of the Ice Spirit Clan’s royal family, and if you had really killed him, those two seniors would have risked their lives against you.” Yao Yuntong still had lingering fears, and she spoke excitedly.
“Even though Fei Yu didn’t die, didn’t he still want to attack me? It is only one’s fists and power that are the most reliable argument.”
Jiang Chen stroked the Divine Fire Ring. Last time, when he taught Heaven Divine City’s geniuses a lesson, he held back his power and he almost didn’t consume any energy. He would be safe for a long time by depending on the Divine Fire Ring, unless he ended up intruding into someone else’s domain and was trapped there.
“Let’s also start.” After the pair of the mysterious man and woman witnessed this affair coming to an end, they started their breakthrough into the palace.
Yao Yuntong and the others were just waiting there. They didn’t really care about who went when in the breakthrough order.
All of a sudden, Jiang Chen emitted a divine thought and transmitted it to Yao Yuntong’s mind. Yao Yuntong was at first taken aback by it, before she started shivering with excitement and her face became flushed.
“You are?” Yao Yuntong looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief.
Jiang Chen had just passed to her the complete Mysterious Thunder Variation Method, and he didn’t raise any requests in exchange for it. “Since we took such a journey up to here, we can be considered friends,” Jiang Chen said with a smile. Jiang Chen didn’t mind parting with anything for his friends. He had raised such conditions before just because this was his usual way.
“This time, I will surely manage to pass through the Fourth Palace, and carve and leave my name there,” Yao Yuntong spoke excitedly. She asked Wu Hui and the others to go there before her, so that she could have a longer time to improve her lightning technique.
Jiang Chen noticed that this man and woman pair didn’t cause a loud disturbance like he had when they passed through the palace. Jiang Chen assumed that they should have faced just several hundred Divine Soldiers and Divine Generals, but he was surprised to discover after that, that they had also climbed up the cliff, one after the other, and reached the Fifth Palace.
“Friend, I didn’t expect that you would really succeed. You are really amazing!” The man shouted at the people below. Both he and his companion saw indices indicating that Jiang Chen had passed through the palace successfully.
Jiang Chen was a Fifth Palace’s genius!!
In the end, the mysterious man and woman descended with their faces filled with dejection. Even though they had managed to climb up there, they didn’t manage to pass through the palace.
“You are really awesome!” After they experienced the Fifth Palace’s difficulty, they both admired and esteemed Jiang Chen.
Just after that, Yao Yuntong started her challenge and managed to pass through the Fourth Palace successfully. She carved her name there and managed to achieve her wish. What contributed most to such an achievement was obviously the complete Mysterious Thunder Variation Method.
