Chapter 194 – Firethorn Combat Armor
Hearing what Qing Styx said, although Huo Yuner wasn’t happy with the decision, he couldn’t deny Qing Styx’s order. He simply let out a cold snort, then he returned to Qing Styx’s side.
“Sect Chief, why did you concede? Why don’t you let me kill that Yun Can first, then after that kill Jiang Chen? If Jiang Chen is killed by him, doesn’t that mean we also won’t be able to retrieve Firethorn Savage’s demon soul?”
Huo Yuner said in an arrogant manner.
“Don’t worry, I’ll step in before Jiang Chen dies, then I’ll get back the demon soul. It is better to let the core disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect kill Jiang Chen, he can save us the hassle. Besides, Huo Yuner, do you really have the confidence you can kill this Yun Can?”
Daoist Styx looked at Huo Yuner.
Hmph!
Huo Yuner let out a snort, then he turned his head away. Obviously, although he didn’t fear Yun Can, it was also impossible for him to kill Yun Can right now. A core disciple from a big sect was no easy target.
Qing Styx’s expression changed. With his experience, he could easily tell how powerful the Doomsday Palm was. Initially, he had thought that even if Jiang Chen was able to withstand the attack, it would take him some effort. However, he had never expected that Jiang Chen would shatter the attack with just a punch. The mighty Doomsday Palm couldn’t pose a single threat to him, and this really shocked Qing Styx.
“His muscles strength is extremely high! I can sense he has a massive amount of qi and blood, and his raw strength is like that of a dragon. He is just like a beast in human form!”
Liu Hong widened his eyes in awe. Two days ago, he was still able to suppress Jiang Chen, but now he felt that if he were to fight Jiang Chen again, he would most likely die.
Even Huo Yuner’s expression changed. He couldn’t help but reduce his arrogance a bit.
Above the skies in the Black Sect, Daoist Black had witnessed what just happened. He was in shocked as well, but at the same time, he had a bright smile on his face.
Yun Can was the most terrified person actually, his eyes had turned red, and he forced himself to reevaluate Jiang Chen. Yun Can had ultimate confidence in his Doomsday Palm, he thought he could smash Jiang Chen into meat paste with this attack alone, but to his shock, not only was Jiang Chen not turned into a meat paste, he had even shattered his attack.
“You are just a mere Heavenly Core warrior, it’s really surprising that you could have such incredible combat strength. It looks like I really underestimated you.”
Yun Can was really surprised.
“Yun Can, don’t say I didn’t give you a chance. Hurry up and unleash whatever powerful skills you have. Since I decided to strike just now, this day will be your doomsday. Before I kill you, I’ll give you the opportunity to attack with whatever you got.”
Jiang Chen portrayed an image of grandeur. His body was glowing in a bright, golden light which made him look like a war god.
“What a shameless boaster.”
Yun Can’s killing intent was extremely high. In an instant, he retrieved a bright longsword. It was a rare high-ranked combat weapon. The sword was covered with mystical patterns which made it look amazing.
After the first attack, Yun Can had stopped looking down upon Jiang Chen. He was getting ready to unleash his ultimate attack and kill Jiang Chen on the spot.
“Jiang Chen, take this, Soaring Heavens Sword!”
Yun Can once again adjusted his energy to its highest level. The sword in his hand began producing a swooshing sound, and the 2 meter longsword transformed into a 30 meter long sword.
The longsword looked like a rainbow slicing the skies, the mystical patterns on it was glowing and emitting shining colors. In an instant, it forcefully slashed towards Jiang Chen.
“Nice.”
Jiang Chen praised the attack. The skill was considered, ‘not bad’. He was about to counter with his Six Solar Fingers. Right now, Jiang Chen was able to unleash the fifth finger, and with its powerful strength, it would certainly defeat Yun Can.
However, Jiang Chen’s eyes lit up, and he suddenly decided not to use the Six Solar Finger.
“I could use this opportunity to test Firethorn Savage’s innate ability, let me see how powerful its defensive strength is.”
When the sudden idea popped up in his mind, a golden colored light barrier suddenly appeared around Jiang Chen’s body. The barrier made some cracking sounds, and in that instant, gigantic thorns appeared on the barrier. All these gigantic thorns were connected to each other, and they soon weaved into an armor with a razor sharp surface.
This was a full armor which even covered Jiang Chen’s head, and it emitted a glorious golden light. Jiang Chen had inherited this innate ability after he absorbed the golden egg, but since there was no information about this ability, Jiang Chen simply gave it a name, Firethorn Combat Armor.
“What skill is that? Why does it look so familiar?”
Far from the fighting scene, Qing Styx’s expression changed. Jiang Chen’s skill gave him a feeling of familiarity, but he couldn’t recall where he had seen it before. Actually, this was Firethorn Savage’s innate ability, so of course Qing Styx was familiar with it. However, no matter how hard he tried to think about it, he just couldn’t relate it to Firethorn Savage, as he did not expect a human to actually use the innate ability of a demon beast.
“Come on!”
Jiang Chen shouted out with extreme vigor. He stood firmly, and he didn’t try dodging or blocking the attack. By channel all of his energy into the Firethorn Combat Armor, Jiang Chen clashed directly with Yun Can’s attack.
Clang!
The mighty high-ranked combat weak collided with Jiang Chen’s Firethorn Combat Armor, and the sparks from the collision instantly turned the place into an ocean of flames.
Jiang Chen’s Firethorn Combat Armor, not only did it have incredible defensive strength, it also carried a massive attack ability. By clashing into the Soaring Heaven Sword, the massive attack force of the Firethorn Combat Armor countered most of the Soaring Heaven Sword’s force. As for the rest of the force, it could only leave a faded mark on the armor, it was completely unable to harm the armor.
