Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After Jiang Chen separated with his senior sister, he suffered the Blood Shadow Dynastyâs assassination, and if he didnât have the Celestial Phoenixâs genuine blood, then he would have already died while oblivious to everything, including even that forestâs name.
Nan Xuan movement technique was extremely similar to the one used by the Shadow Clan, which once tried to assassinate him in the past.
âDidnât you notice that you already lost?â Nan Xuan chuckled mysteriously, while he spoke in a complacent tone.
When his words just echoed, a ripping sound transmitted from Jiang Chenâs clothes, as a Sword Scar had streaked across him downward.
âCould even such matter be considered a defeat?â Jiang Chen sneered coldly.
This Nan Xuan was really cunning, tearing his cloths was already the upper limit of what his Sword Scar could achieve, yet he spoke as if he spared him on purpose, and stopped just there.
âDo you want to see blood?â Nan Xuan spoke proudly.
âSince itâs the case, then why donât you sheath your sword, and just concede?â
After Jiang Chen spoke, Nan Xuanâs sleeves fluttered away in the wind suddenly, and it was especially the case for his right handâs sleeves, as his Nine Golden Battle Rings were already shattered.
âHow is this possible?â
Nan Xuan didnât notice at which time it occurred, as he assumed that he got the upper hand in their short confrontation a moment ago.
âDo you sill want to continue wasting your breath?â Jiang Chen asked coldly.
âItâs still just a draw.â
Nan Xuan raised his sword once again, as his Blood Shadowâs golden light shone brightly.
âBlood Shadow Sword, Absolute Lightless Darkness.â
With the Blood Shadow Holy Skill âs assistance, even an ordinary sword move would become extremely powerful, and it could be said that it was capable of making something miraculous even out of the most useless moves.
As he used such sword move, he disappeared thoroughly, and he didnât leave even a simple trail behind.
It seemed like Nan Xuan, and his sword, already broke free of speedâs limit, and the whole sky turned into their playground, where they could do as they pleased.
However, this was still not its most powerful point, as it seemed like the Blood Shadowâs scarlet rays around him turned into an armor, which could both attack, and defend.
âKsana Sword Method, first move.â
âKsana Sword Method, second move.â
Jiang Chen didnât panic when he faced his incoming attack, and he used Ksana Sword Method first and second moves with each of his hands.
He first sheathed the Redcloud Sword, and black knife, and took a step forward with his right foot, and bent his knee slightly
At this moment, the world before him became slower in his eyes, and Nan Xuanâs track, which he couldnât even catch a glimpse of, because traceable, as the latter whole body flickered with light became he used the Blood Shadow Holy Skill.
In the end, several dozens of afterimages of Nan Xuanâs appeared before Jiang Chenâs eyes, and they were all in the hundred meters radius around him, and there were rays of light flickering between them, which linked them together.
Jiang Chen let out a breath, as he instantly unsheathed his knife, and sword.
The crowd wondered how could Jiang Chen face Nan Xuan, who used his Blood Shadow Holy Skill, and none of them expected that he possessed such swift sword move.
Even other Martial Venerables couldnât have a clear look of Jiang Chenâs movement, and only Spiritual Venerables, and Celestial Venerables could clearly see some fine details about it.
The expression of Nan Xuan, who assumed that he could easily deal with him, changed drastically.
He depended upon the Blood Shadow Holy Skill to break free of the speed limit, and he never expected that Jiang Chen would possess a skill, which could slow time.
Now, not only was he restrained by Jiang Chen, but he was also incapable of blocking the formerâs sword strike.
âBlood Shadow Sword.â
Nan Xuan clenched his teeth, and turned the Blood Shadowâs scarlet light around him into a sword.
When Jiang Chenâs sword, and knife attacked, his Blood Shadow Swords, which were numbered in thousand, helped him to ward them off, and the sound of metal collision rang unceasingly.
âIf time and speed fought against each other, do you still think that you can win?â
An ice-cold sound rang near Nan Xuanâs ears before all of his Blood Shadowâs light dissipated in the next second.
In the past second, Jiang Chen thrust more than a hundred strike with his sword and knife, and his Immortal Sword Doctrineâs power erupted thoroughly.
Nan Xuan didnât even manage to respond back, while his body was being attacked by Jiang Chenâs Sword Doctrine power, and he was injured heavily
âI really donât know where you got enough confidence to stand before me.â
Those were the same words spoken to him before they started their fight, and it was only now did he realize that it was impossible for his Blood Shadow Holy Skill to deal with Jiang Chen, and that he couldnât withstand even a strike from Jiang Chen like Song Ji.
When Jiang Chen last sword strike struck him, Nan Xuanâs body fell down.
The Milky Realmâs people were stunned, and they even forgot to go forward to catch Nan Xuan, and it was only because the first platformâs experts intervened in did Nan Xuan avert falling to his death.
âIt ended just like this?â
Many people were disappointed when they witnessed that the outcome of the battle was already determined.
They assumed that the Half Spirit, Nan Xuan, who cultivated the Blood Shadow Holy Skill would have a shocking performance, and didnât expect that he amounted to just this much.
âIt isnât Nan Xuan, who is weak, itâs Jiang Chen, who is too strong.â
They were also people, who saw through the truth, and they were the Celestial Venerables in the first platform.
âNan Xuan just broke free of speedâs limit, while Jiang Chen was capable of controlling time. The two of them werenât on the same level.â
âWhat is crucial is age, age. His accomplishments arenât any worse than our True Force Realmâs geniuses.â
The Celestial Venerables looked at Jiang Chen, who was in mid-air, with a complex gaze.
âIf it was you, how would it be?â
At the Dragon Rebel Kingdomâs people side, the long-legged princess averted her gaze from Jiang Chen, as she asked.
It was only after a long while did Ning Haotian, who was beside her, realize that she was talking to him.
âThe Blood Shadow Holy Skillâs speed would catch all people off guard, but Jiang Chen could face it by using a sword move, which transcended timeâs limit, as for me, I could use the spear in my hand to sweep through all enemies,â Ning Haotian spoke confidently.
âThen what are you waiting for?â The princess wore a smile as she looked at him.
Ning Haotian was startled, and he took a deep breath, as he took a step forward, and looked at Jiang Chen. He wanted to challenge him now.
âNan Xuan, are you willing to join our Fushan Sect.â
âNan Xuan, our Shangguan Family is willing to give you a helping hand.â
âOur Golden Dragon Dynasty need a genius like you.â
Before Ning Haotian even managed to speak, the Celestial Venerables of all factions started fighting over Nan Xuan, and tried to rope him in.â
Nan Xuanâs injuries werenât light, and he was now supported by the Milky Realmâs people.
It was quite amazing for a loser like him to manage to catch this many factionsâ attention, and it also showed how outstanding was Jiang Chen, who managed to defeat him.
As the Flying Dragon Dynastyâs champion, Jiang Chen didnât really need to wait for any factionsâ recruitment, and he went directly into the first platform.
âI choose the Shangguan Family.â
Nan Xuan wasnât willing to accept such a defeat, and his choice was quite thought-provoking, as it was impossible for him to be unaware of how much the Shangguan Family hated Jiang Chen.
His choice demonstrated that he still wanted to make a comeback.
âJiang Chen, do you dare to have a fight with me?â Ning Haotian waited for Nan Xuan to take care of his affair, before he stood up impatiently.
âHehe, did you really assume that tonightâs evening party was set up just for lower planeâs trash like you to put a show?â
Before Jiang Chen managed to reply, an arrogant sound transmitted from among the True Force Realmâs disciples in the first platform.
Many gazes looked at a white-clothed youth, who was sitting there lazily. He disregarded all people, as he stretched himself leisurely.
âIf people didnât inform me that it was Nine Heavens Realmâs top-notch genius, which just defeated the Milky Realmâs top-notch genius, then I would have assumed that they were just clowns invited here to brighten our mood.â
As he uttered such words, he looked at Jiang Chen with a provocative gaze.
Jiang Chen, and Nan Wuâs fight was top-notch even in Celestial Venerablesâ eyes, yet when it came up to the youth, he described it this harshly.
When the True Force Realmâs people saw it was that youth, which was speaking, they werenât at all baffled by it.
âWe will have a good show to watch now.â
