Chapter 667 Arrivals (1/2)
“Two grade 6 Sacred artefacts? How enviable!” Ren Tianxing said.
Brother Chen have more than just those two magic treasures, though, Wen Shaoxiu thought.
“Someone is coming!”
“They are our fellow sect disciples. My jade talisman is reacting.”
Sou! Sou! Sou!
Three clumps of sword light flew over from afar to quickly appear before them.
“Junior Brother Xiaotian! And you two!” Wen Shaoxiu was surprised. Of the three new arrivals, one of them was Jian Xiaotian.
The other two were Jian Shaolong and Jian Zhikong.
Jian Shaolong and Jian Zhikong. In terms of combat prowess, these two were stronger than Wen Shaoxiu. They were both contenders for the next Sect Master position. Be it status or authority, both were on a higher level compared to Wen Shaoxiu.
“Wen Shaoxiu, looks like you managed to gain quite a lot. Your cultivation base has actually increased again. Looks like it will be hard for me to beat you now,” Jian Zhikong said with a chuckle.
“Cut the bullshit! Who here doesn’t know how strong you are? However, now that you two are here, your strength will rise quickly. Rising up to the Human Immortal stage will not be an impossibility,” Wen Shaoxiu said with a laugh.
“This, this is an Immortal artefact!” Jian Shaolong cast a shocked look at the distant broken sword.
“Yes, it is an Immortal artefact. I’ll tell you what I know.” Wen Shaoxiu briefed them about the matter.
“Humph! Our sect was the first to discover this space. It stands to reason that all the treasures here belong to our sect. However, due to the pressure, our sect had to let cultivators from other sects inside. This is already a humiliating matter! Those cultivators better wish they don’t end up bumping into me, otherwise they will all die!” Jian Shaolong said, killing intent roiling out from him.
“Heh! I am hoping I can break through to the Human Immortal stage now. One year. That is enough time to kill off some cultivators from Heartless Heaven Sect,” Jian Zhikong said with a chuckle.
“Guys, don’t be careless. The ones who came this time around are all peerless experts. It is possible that some others would break through to the Human Immortal stage first,” Wen Shaoxiu said.
“True. If someone can break through to the Human Immortal stage here, that person would likely be capable of sweeping everything here. Eh, who is that up ahead? He is so strong!” Jian Zhikong said with a shocked voice, looking at Chen Feng, who was still within the tempest of sword beams.
Shua!
All of them saw a blur as Chen Feng suddenly appeared before them. The incredible speed behind his move shocked them all.
“Brother Jian, your cultivation level has increased again. Congratulations!” Chen Feng said with a smile, looking at Jian Xiaotian.
Previously, Jian Xiaotian was only at level 6 of the Sky Human stage. At that moment, however, he was already at level 7 of the Sky Human stage. Additionally, the sword intent coming off him had a highly abundant quality. He was like a sky-vaulting sword, seemingly on the verge of levelling up yet again.
“I was just lucky. After entering, I got into a battle. Then, I was fortunate enough to meld with a strand of sword intent left by an ancient Immortal Human. That was how I ended up undergoing my Lightning Tribulation again. However, the Lightning Tribulation here is just too violent. It is at least several times stronger compared to the Lightning Tribulation in the outside world. If it weren’t for the protection of my two senior brothers, I would have been killed by others due to the wounds inflicted by the Lightning Tribulation,” Jian Xiaotian said smilingly.
Sword intent left by an ancient Immortal Human, Chen Feng thought.
“There are also surging streams of sword intent here. Looks like everyone will be breaking through,” Chen Feng then said, laughing.
“You are just at level 5 of the Sky Human stage? How is this possible?” Jian Zhikong, who was looking at Chen Feng, suddenly said.
The power that Chen Feng had displayed while fighting within the tempest of sword beams earlier had secretly shocked them all. Thus, they had assumed that Chen Feng was someone infinitely close to reaching the Human Immortal stage. Unexpectedly, he was only at level 5 of the Sky Human stage.
“Ha ha, I am just using some techniques to suppress my cultivation level,” Chen Feng said with a smile, unwilling to say too much more about it.
“What a formidable sword intent. Looks like I will be trying to assail the Human Immortal stage next,” said Jian Shaolong, who suddenly became like a sharp sword. He pierced through one obstruction after another, making his way into the tempest of sword beams.
An incomparably sharp sword beam suddenly slashed forward to instantly cleave apart several of the incoming sword beams.
“Ha ha ha! The sword energy here is truly strong!” Jian Shaolong laughed loudly and sword energy kept radiating out from him. Every time he swung his sword to break one of the incoming sword beams, he would take a large step forward.
“Oh, the Five Elemental Constitution!” Chen Feng looked at Jian Shaolong, who was inside the tempest of sword beams.
“Jian Shaolong is born with a Minor Five Elemental Constitution. His cultivation talent far surpasses that of the average cultivator. Additionally, he is cultivating the highly formidable Five Elemental Sword Technique and Five Elemental Cycle. However, he will need to accumulate a great deal of power in order to break through to the Human Immortal stage,” Wen Shaoxiu said.
“Yes. This kind of special constitution gives its bearer a fast rate of cultivation. However, when its bearer faces a bottleneck, it becomes very hard to break through. That is particularly so for levelling up to the Human Immortal stage,” Jian Zhikong said, charging into the tempest of sword beams as well.
Jian Zhikong was seemingly floating, his feet moving nimbly as the sword in his hand kept swinging out. Every one of his sword moves contained an immeasurably profound power of concept.
This Jian Zhikong is extraordinary. His understanding of the sword has surpassed both Wen Shaoxiu and Jian Shaolong, Chen Feng thought.
