Chapter 1567 - : Nine-Leaf Sword Grass
Chapter 1567: Nine-Leaf Sword Grass
Jiang Chen smiled bitterly. It’d been a desperate fight indeed.
The monster’s force was brutal and primitive, but it was also extremely lethal.
It was nerve-wracking for Jiang Chen to challenge someone whose state was higher than his.
However, the advantage of being in a desperate fight with someone in a higher state was that Jiang Chen would be able to improve his state after gaining a victory.
It might be possible to achieve even more than the breakthrough to a Martial Arts Saint.
Jiang Chen found with pleasant surprise that his Sword Spirit of Wind and Cloud had transformed to the Will of Sword Doctrine after his fight just now.
He’d also mastered the Wind Cloud Will of Sword Doctrine.
His Immortal Will had achieved level four, while his Wind Cloud Will was level one.
The change brought about by this fight was even better than the Wind Thunder Blade.
Jiang Chen recalled Xiao Nuo’s unique theurgy called A Strike of Fast Thunders and Arc Lights.
He should be able to master this in his current state and achieve the harmonious combination of the law of thunder and Sword Doctrine.
So, once the fight was over, Jiang Chen found a quiet place where he could be alone. He appeared in Xiao Nuo’s palace by using projection.
The Red Cloud Venerable spent most of her time practicing in seclusion. So this was what she was doing at the moment.
“What’s up?”
Sensing Jiang Chen’s arrival, Xiao Nuo opened her eyes slowly and smiled.
Jiang Chen of course wouldn’t be so dumb as to tell her he had come for the unique theurgy as soon as he arrived.
He told her he had become a Martial Arts Saint and had come here specifically to share the good news with her. Then he beat about the bush a bit, asking about the unique theurgy.
“Great. It turns out you came for that, huh?”
Xiao Nuo was such a clever person that she saw through Jiang Chen right away. She pouted.
Seeing Xiao Nuo’s expression, Jiang Chen realized that he was in trouble.
It was exactly because of her sensitivity that he didn’t dare tell her what he wanted directly.
However, since he’d been seen through, Jiang Chen said some sweet things to her, smiling fatuously.
“Stop it. Here it is! Don’t disturb my practicing.”
Xiao Nuo waved her arm, and Jiang Chen’s projection disappeared.
Jiang Chen’s consciousness went back to the Monster Palace with one new unique theurgy in mind.
It was exactly what he’d wanted: A Strike of Fast Thunders and Arc Lights.
It matched Jiang Chen’s Sword Doctrine and laws perfectly.
He could master it while he was waiting for Whitey, who was working on his transformation.
…..
During this time, the news that Jiang Chen was staying at the Monster Palace spread all over the Realm of Monsters.
Since Whitey’s working on his transformation was a secret that few monsters knew, most monsters were curious about the reason Jiang Chen was staying in the Monster Palace.
After the fight with Wind Mark, rumors spread that Jiang Chen wanted to challenge the younger generation of monsters.
As a result, during the next few days, talented monsters came from time to time to challenge him.
Since Jiang Chen wanted to adapt himself to the strength of a Martial Arts Saint, he rejected none of them.
Over time, the air became quite lively around the Monster Palace. Monsters came every day in anticipation of what was happening, expecting the start of another big fight.
“He won, again.”
On this day, a high-level monster who’d come to challenge Jiang Chen had been defeated by him.
“He has gained ten victories in a row. Can no one take the edge off his spirit?”
“This man’s too strong. Both his attacks and his defenses are first class.”
“His vitality is even stronger than ours.”
The onlookers spent a lot of time talking about him. Fortunately, Jiang Chen hadn’t been challenging monsters. Instead, he’d only been accepting the challenges from monsters. Otherwise, the monsters would’ve been pissed.
“It’s lonely to be invincible.”
Seeing one of his rivals leaving in anger, Jiang Chen exclaimed deliberately in an exaggerated manner.
Since he’d become a Martial Arts Saint, none of the high-level monsters who had come to challenge him had been great enough for him to use his two practicing bodies.
“Monsters are more than this.”
Seeing Jiang Chen so confident, Bai walked toward him head on.
“I thought you were on my side.”
Jiang Chen spoke to her with a smile. They’d been friends for quite some time.
Bai hadn’t been as depressed as she had been before since she had joined the Monster Palace. She was now quite energetic.
“I just can’t allow you to look down on the monsters,” Bai said with a smile.
“I don’t dare, especially before you.”
Jiang Chen was half joking, but he looked as if he was expecting something.
Bai had had a seal on her when she was taking part in the Sovereign Path, so that she couldn’t show all that she had.
Not until Jiang Chen had arrived in the Realm of Monsters did he realize how strong Bai actually was. He couldn’t even see the limits of her strength.
Unfortunately, Bai refused to fight him.
Because she thought it would be unfair for Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen wasn’t convinced about this at all, but he couldn’t force her to fight him when she didn’t want to.
Another two weeks passed, and Jiang Chen finally had a strong challenger.
It was a monster from Nature, a minority in the Realm of Monsters.
According to Bai, the members of Nature who could transform to human figures completely were all very strong.
Gazing at the youngster in simple clothes, Jiang Chen found him so lean that even a wind could blow him off his feet.
However, looking into the youngster’s eyes, he knew this rival was quite dreadful.
“Look out. He’s a Nine-Leaf Sword Grass.”
Bai, who had just arrived, looked serious.
Jiang Chen was struck dumb. He did not expect his rival to be a grass monster.
“I heard you are a sword user?”
Nine-Leaf Sword Grass began by quizzing Jiang Chen.
“Yes.”
“Show me how good you are.”
As he spoke, an average-looking iron sword showed up in Nine-Leaf Sword Grass’s hand.
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but burst out laughing. He asked, “You want to compete with me using a sword?”
He had learned a lot about monsters’ strengths during these last weeks when he’d been fighting with them.
Most monsters were stronger when they didn’t use any weapons than when they used weapons.
“Check out my sword.”
Nine-Leaf Sword Grass realized that Jiang Chen was looking down on him. A coldness emerged on his young face, which still looked like a kid.
“What?”
After seeing the sword attack, Jiang Chen didn’t dare look down on this rival anymore.
Nine-Leaf Sword Grass wasn’t using his weapon with brute force, as most monsters usually did.
On the contrary, his sword method was a sword formula.
His sword strike could cleave time and space in two and cut the universe open.
Jiang Chen took a deep breath. He went all out to throw his sword. Only by doing this did he manage to resist Nine-Leaf Sword Grass’s sword momentum.
“Okay!”
Jiang Chen’s face turned red, because he was excited.
A well-matched rival, who was also a swordsman, wasn’t something he could find very often.
“Oh?”
Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was very surprised to see Jiang Chen parry his sword move.
“My sword formula has nine movements in all. Show me how you’ll resist them.”
“I’m afraid you won’t be able to exert all of the nine.”
“Bring it on.”
The man and the monster fought together. Their sword methods looked so mysterious. Their sword radiances were so shining. The onlookers could hardly take their eyes off them.
After 34,340 blow exchanges, their swords had become extremely hot.
“Wind Cloud Will, A Strike of Fast Thunders and Arc Lights!”
Jiang Chen was enjoying this fight a lot. And he had managed to master this unique theurgy.
After this sword attack, the result was evident.
Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was gasping for air. His facial expression had become pretty interesting after he’d realized that he had lost.
Jiang Chen suddenly saw something incredible. Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was crying!
His eyes welled up with tears.
Not until then did Jiang Chen realize he didn’t just look like a teenager about 13 or 14 years of age, but he WAS a teenager of this age.
“Don’t cry. Don’t cry. You’re already very great. If you really had had the chance to exert the nine movements of your sword formula completely, I wouldn’t have been able to resist them,” Jiang Chen soothed him.
“Really?” Not until then did Nine-Leaf Sword Grass stop crying. He left with more assurance after getting an affirmative answer from Jiang Chen.
“I’ll defeat you next time.”
Nine-Leaf Sword Grass was serious and challenged Jiang Chen as he was leaving.
“I needed to soothe him after defeating him. That’s really the first time in my life I’ve ever done that.”
Jiang Chen whispered to himself. Then he returned to the square.
“You defeated Nine-Leaf Sword Grass in swordsmanship. That’s awesome.”
