Chapter 736 - The Seventh Move
The Nine Clouds Divine Lightning Formula couldn’t just be used to promote his Lightning Core’s power, it still had knowledge related to using lightning power.
This was a true Holy Skill, and it was a Holy Pulse possessor’s strongest weapon.
In the past, Jiang Chen depended just on his sword to fight over supremacy, and overlooked this matter. It continued on until he felt oppressed by a Celestial Venerable now.
He realized that sometimes one’s martial techniques level, which surpassed one’s true realm greatly, could become a chasm, which one could never cross.
It was at this moment could a Holy Skill be put to good use.
Fifth Lightning Heaven Will Palm was one of the Holy Skill’s powerful offensive moves, and the Nine Clouds Divine Lightning Formula still had many techniques related to how one could use divine lightning.
Jiang Chen had a look at all techniques in it, which could increase his defensive or offensive power, and the teleportation technique, which he used a moment ago, was one of them.
Mu Qitian extended out his hand, and was just about to receive it, but a crisp echoed, as Jiang Chen forestalled him, struck the sword with his fist, and sent it flying away.
“You are already in such a state, yet you still want to call your sword over?”
Mu Qitian was left speechless. His sword, which was sent flying, had lightning flickering on it, and it wouldn’t detect his summoning anymore.
“Trifling Spiritual Venerable, you are just a trifling Spiritual Venerable…”
Mu Qitian wasn’t willing to admit defeat, and he pulled apart the distance between them. He said, “You can’t break through even my defense.”
“You are really impossibly stupid.” Jiang Chen shook his head, raised his hand, and said, “Let’s see how thick is your tortoiseshell.”
Mu Qitian, who mocked Jiang Chen a while ago and called him a tortoiseshell, felt humiliated by those words, but he still couldn’t keep his calm like Jiang Chen, and it was especially the case since he felt a great sense of crisis.
His intuition was informing that Jiang Chen’s next attack would be more powerful than all previous ones.
“Fifth Lightning Heaven Will Palm!”
This technique could be called the Holy Skill’s ultimate technique, and was the first one practiced by him. Even after he learned other techniques of the Holy Skill, this palm strike was still his strongest move.
It was especially the case after the previous day crazy cultivation.
The might, which his Lightning Core erupted with on this day, was already at Heavenly Lightning’s level, and not Angry Lightning.
This wasn’t because his Lightning Core already became this powerful, and it was just because he used the Lightning Sword’s special power along with the Holy Skill.
Since this was its inherent power, it couldn’t be reproduced again, but it still couldn’t be considered external power.
When he used this move, all lightning power on Jiang Chen’s body disappeared, but Mu Qitian still couldn’t rejoice, as it was wholly condensed in Jiang Chen’s palm.
When Jiang Chen thrust his palm, it erupted out with a powerful and vigorous might, yet it was still not slow like how such a type of palm techniques should be, and it was quicker than any swords.
Mu Qitian could only look on helplessly, as the palm struck his chest. His protective big dipper energy barrier was shattered, and a deep dent was left on his chest, while he spouted a large mouthful of blood.
If they counted the number of moves strictly, this one could be considered just the seventh move. The battle outcome, and the survivor, was determined in the seventh move like what Feng Wentian hoped.
However, Feng Wentian placed a bet on the wrong person.
“I… I, no, it shouldn’t be like this,” Mu Qitian said.
“You don’t need to be this resentful and unwilling, I will shortly send down Fang Wentian to accompany you,” Jiang Chen said coldly.
He didn’t speak in a low voice, thus, all people in Treasure City, who observed this fight, clearly heard him, and it was also the case for Fang Wentian.
The crowd didn’t know why he mentioned Fang Wentian’s now, and it was just Fang Wentian alone, who understood why he mentioned him.
“Wentian, do you want me to attack him to relieve you from future troubles?” The Great Venerable spoke in a low voice.
