Chapter 3015 - The Elevation of the Sword Qi
Jiang Chen looked gloomy and cold. The sword was moving swiftly like shooting stars and glittering brightly like the stars. Terrifying sword Qi swept through the vast sky, the shadow of the spear was sliced into pieces instantly. Jiang Chen remained calm, and wore a blank expression. The sword of solitude was so irresistible the Third Elder could barely strike back at the moment.
Jiang Chen’s aura was getting stronger and stronger along with the Sword of Solitude. Moreover, Jiang Chen’s spirit was greatly boosted to another level. The Third Elder could hardly resist the attacks and he fell into a passive position. The spear was gleaming slightly, losing its original colour.
“What a freak! He is beyond my imagination.”
The Third Elder was astonished. Jiang Chen was young and he had not reached the Hierarch Realm yet. Third Elder wondered what made him so strong and terrible. It was truly terrifying and unbelievable.
The Third Elder realized that Jiang Chen forcibly increased his strength, so the Elder expected that Jiang Chen’s battle strength would not last long. If he could withstand Jiang Chen’s attack during this period, he would gain a chance to strike back when Jiang Chen was weakened.
However, the Third Elder did not know how much time Jiang Chen would maintain his strength. Even though the Ancient Soaring Dragon Technique was such a drain, it was not necessary for Jiang Chen to worry about that. If he could defeat the Third Elder, he would not have any worries later on.
“The Light of Stars!”
The Sword of Solitude soared high once again, piercing through the sky rapidly. He had made the Third Elder lose the initiative in the twinkling of an eye with an overwhelming pose.
“The Divine Shadow of Heaven!”
The Third Elder broke through the vast sky and faced the Sword of Solitude head on. However, his strength was completely constrained by Jiang Chen. Even Jiang Chen himself never thought that the Sword Qi could knock down the Third Elder and the Light of Stars had suppressed the Elder’s spirit entirely.
“No......”
The Third Elder roared and his face contorted, he looked awful and ferocious at the same time. While Jiang Chen’s sword Qi was rushing at him furiously, the Third Elder’s silver spear was shattered into pieces. The spear disappeared completely in the sky. The Third Elder was forced to retreat and the sword entered his chest. If he did not protect his heart from the blow, he would be killed by Jiang Chen.
The sword was life-threatening and dreadful, the Third City Lord was defeated utterly. The battle was controlled by Jiang Chen for almost all the time. None of them expected Jiang Chen to challenge a Late Hierarch Realm expert. In this battle, there was no doubt that Jiang Chen had surpassed the Third Elder in strength.
Puff......
The Third Elder backed away rapidly while vomiting blood continuously. Jiang Chen heaved a sigh of relief as that dreadful blow almost drained all of his strength. He was merely a Divine King expert and his opponent was a Late Hierarch after all. The battle between different realms was not only energy-consuming, but also exhausted his spirit.
“Third City Lord, so that is all you got?”
Jiang Chen said with a slight smile. Even though his face seemed ghastly pale and exhausted, he gained a better understanding of his own strength. Even when dealing with a Late Hierarch Realm strong expert, Jiang Chen was not inferior to them at all.
The Third Elder looked deadly white. He expected Jiang Chen to become weakened but he was eventually defeated by Jiang Chen. He has suffered a severe injury and he was in a desperate and difficult position.
Bing Yun and Qian Renji took a deep breath and felt relieved. Although Jiang Chen had not reached the Hierarch Realm, he was capable of defeating a Late Hierarch. It seemed like everyone had underestimated Jiang Chen’s strength. In this battle, Jiang Chen had gained recognition and proved that he deserved the title of Outer Palace’s No.1. Qian Renji guessed no one could defeat him in the Outer Palace and there was no doubt that he could overturn the entire Profound Connection Divine Palace by his own strength.
Even though the Third Elder was not considered as the strongest expert in the Profound Connection Divine Palace, he was on the Top 10 list. Among the elders, besides the great elder, second elder, Lin Youkang and Elder Ke Qing, he was still counted as an unbeatable and respectable figure in the Profound Connection Divine Palace. Unfortunately, the terrible defeat was a humiliation to the Third Elder and he just disgraced the Profound Connection Divine Palace’s name.
Meanwhile, Xue Liang was completely constrained by the Third City Lord. Even with the Heavenly Frost Sword, he could hardly resist the attack of the Third City Lord directly. It sounded incredible that Xue Liang could use the Heavenly Frost Sword at such a level, but he had to reach the Late Hierarch Realm or even Half-step Divine Emperor Realm if he would like to make good use of the sword. If that happened, the Heavenly Frost Sword would exert its full power.
“Son of a b*tch, you are still too young to fight me. Humph.”
The Third City Lord said with some disdain, and his face turned cold and gloomy. Apparently, there was a great difference between the Third City Lord and Xue Liang. Without the Heavenly Frost Sword, Xue Liang would have been defeated.
“Let’s see.”
Xue Liang snorted indignantly. He was taking each of his moves carefully but he could hardly escape the oppression of the Third City Lord.
Xue Liang was backed into the corner. Confronted with the attack of the Third CIty Lord, it was undoubtedly an irresistible burden for Xue Liang even with the Heavenly Frost Sword in his hand. He had overestimated his strength and he had finally realized the importance of real strength in this battle. Jiang Chen gained the upper hand by bringing endless tricks, but Xue Liang had to defeat his opponent by his raw strength. Although the Heavenly Frost Sword was extraordinarily strong, he had fallen into a passive position when he was relying on it entirely.
“Origin Qi Split Up Into Three!”
The Third City Lord’s eyes were filled with terrible killing intent. His spirit was soaring in the sky while the Divine Origin Qi emerged rapidly. It looked unbeatable and irresistible.
The Third City Lord turned away and struck out aggressively. The Origin Qi split up into three and swept through the vast sky. Everything surrounding them was turned into an awful mess. Xue Liang was no match for the Third City Lord. He was thrown off once again, with a pale face. Even though he was holding a good sword, he failed to make good use of it.
“You’re just an Early Hierarch, how dare you fight me? Hahaha. You're way over your head.”
The Third Elder smiled coldly. A shade of coldness touched the corners of his lips. His killing intent was shown. He was going to kill all of them here, including Jiang Chen.
“Brother Bai, be careful!”
Bing Yun exclaimed. The Third City Lord rushed at Xue Liang ferociously with an irresistible evil force.
“The Sword of Solitude, Each Side of the Heavens!”
Jiang Chen exerted the Sixth Sword. This attack had exhausted all of his strength. Sword Qi spread all over the sky. Even the Third City Lord was frightened by Jiang Chen. The edge of the sword was turning constantly, blocking the way of the Third City Lord in the blink of an eye with an overbearing spirit. The Third City Lord was forced to step backward. The Sword of Solitude had reached such a profound realm that even Jiang Chen was startled as the sword’s spirit was increased once again at the moment.
Even though the Sword of Solitude used to look superficial and empty, at the moment the sword looked overwhelming and frightening. The Sword Qi could overturn the entire world and the spirit of solitude filled the air. The Sword Qi was awe-inspiring and calm. Jiang Chen realized that the whole world was withering and the rivers were dried up. The Sword of Solitude had made the world sink into despair.
The Sword Qi was stunning and unparalleled in the world! Suddenly, the Third City Lord’s long hair hung down loosely in the sky, his back looked like a black lotus and his body gave off a kind of terrible spirit.
The Third City Lord was knocked down but Jiang Chen was exhausted. Xue Liang got up and took a quick glance at Jiang Chen. The sword was incredibly overbearing and arrogant. At that moment, Xue Liang finally realized the difference between him and Jiang Chen.
The long hair hung freely over his shoulders, the shadow looked gloomy. Jiang Chen found a terrifying spirit that escaped from the Third Elder. He got to the bottom of what went wrong.
“You’re not the Third City Lord!”
Jiang Chen said in a low voice. Even the Third Elder was startled, he wondered why Jiang said that. How was it possible?
