Chapter 1466 - The Frozen Yi Water
Jiang Chen went into the Sword House after noon. It had been almost the dusk, which meant he had been there for nearly two hours.
The “Eighteen” on the stone wall finally became “Twenty” under numerous expectant gazes.
However, it did not stop there. The number soon changed to twenty-one, twenty-two…
It finally stopped at twenty-five.
The place was so quiet that even if a needle fell on the ground, it would be heard. People’s chests were heaving up and down. It was an exciting scene.
The sky-reaching energy pillar scattered and disappeared after reaching the peak. It was taken back into the Sword House.
The Sword House was giving off a weaker light at the moment. The stone door was being pushed.
However, they did not think Jiang Chen could defeat Duanmu Rong.
They were only wondering whether the ultimate-level sword method Jiang Chen had mastered could affect Duanmu Rong.
“As long as she wants, Miss First Chair can just crack his ultimate-level sword method with brutal force.”
“If she does that, it means she can’t handle the ultimate-level sword method. It’s unethical for a swordsman.”
“Miss First Chair almost won the Sword King title. Her swordsmanship is brilliant. And she is a Martial Arts Saint, too. The odds are against the vice leader.”
“That being said, we’ll see how great an ultimate-level sword method is more clearly.”
Jiang Chen and Duanmu Rong flew to a high altitude while people were expecting the fight.
Tactical formations protected all of the nine peaks, so they would not be affected easily.
However, tactical formations would consume energies to offset the influences. They would like to inflict as few damages or energy consumptions as possible.
“Mr. Vice Leader, please start your show.”
Duanmu Rong said with a smile. She looked very relaxed.
She could be so confident because there was a considerable gap between their states. If they were both Martial Arts Saints, Jiang Chen’s performance in the Stone House might have made her more serious.
However, Jiang Chen was only a Martial Emperor in the late stage.
No matter how much he had improved in the Sword House, it did not concern his state.
“Elder Duanmu, watch out.”
Jiang Chen said. He certainly knew this woman was not taking the fight with him seriously.
There was no need to talk anymore. Holding the sword in front of his chest and accumulating forces rapidly, he emitted tremendous sword energy.
“This sword energy?”
Duanmu Rong, as well as the others at the Hundred Swords Peak, sensed that gloomy and freezing sword energy.
The air seemed to be moister.
Hanging loose, Jiang Chen’s long hair was fluttering. He looked serious. The Heavenly Fault Sword kept chiming.
The sword energy around him was like a fog. A great number of ice crystals appeared.
“What?!”
Duanmu Rong lost her cool when she saw this.
So did the other swordsmen there.
The sword energy’s crystallization meant the swordsman had achieved an unparalleled level.
Zhang Tian’s sword energy was once crystallized as well.
“If he becomes Martial Arts Saint, he will be qualified to compete for Sword King! No! Even Sword Emperor!”
Duanmu Rong thought.
Before the appearance of Sovereign Souls, the highest state-level people could achieve was Martial Arts Saint.
For those who had achieved this highest level, they were classified by strength using a system of martial doctrine.
Most of them were swordsmen. They were classified into Sword King and Sword Emperor.
Zhang Tian was called the Sword King of Breeze. It was an amazing achievement for his age.
However, Duanmu Rong, who had been following Zhang Tian’s development closely during these years, had a complicated feeling gazing at the young man in front of her.
“The Frozen Yi Water!”
Jiang Chen threw his sword over decisively as soon as the sword energy achieved the critical point.
The sword momentum was unpredictable and infinitely mysterious. The aqua blue sword soul flew out at high speed.
Duanmu Rong was shocked. In a trance, she had no idea whether she should retreat or dodge.
It was like when average people were facing a tsunami. The only possible reaction is a fright out of instinct. They simply froze there and could not take any actions.
This sword attack was powerful and mysterious.
The disciples of the celestial palace were so petrified that they even forgot to shut their open mouths.
“Across All Directions!”
At the last minute, Duanmu Rong reacted in the most awkward way ever.
She could see through this attack of Jiang Chen’s, but she did not care. Relying on the state force of Martial Arts Saint, she launched a unique attack, intending to crack the mystery by brutal force. She truly believed this would work.
Indeed, as soon as Duanmu Rong launched this attack, even the color of the sky changed. Jiang Chen’s sword momentum was greatly affected.
“Water Retrogrades!”
To her surprise, Jiang Chen had anticipated that. His blade suddenly transformed, and the law of the universe transformed as well.
Duanmu Rong’s sword attack was reversed by his sword momentum. It turned around to attack herself!
“How is it possible?!”
Opening her eyes widely, Duanmu Rong switched on her protecting jar involuntarily.
This was the moment to decide the result of this blow exchange
