For Martial Cultivators, the Divine Soul can be used as eyes. In the urgent moments of a battle, capturing the opponent’s moves with the physical eye is difficult, but it is simple using a powerful Divine Soul.
The Divine Soul, when too strong, can sometimes bring terrifying Soul Techniques, and also greatly enhance one’s performance in Mysterious Technique and Body Technique combat.
While Ye Cheng was still trembling with terror, Su Chen’s gaze sharpened again, and his Heavy Divine Sword suddenly moved.
Not returning a blow is discourtesy.
It was just one sword strike, an ancient, unadorned one, using no swordsmanship at all!
This sword strike contained only one purity, a purity that locked onto Ye Cheng. As for the direction of the sword strike, the attack point, and so on, everything was completely exposed without any concealment.
Upon release, the sword locked onto its target like Mount Tai’s Overwhelming Pressure, smashing down silently.
"Scram!" Being too close, Ye Cheng had no chance to dodge this sword strike, and even if he could, he wouldn’t choose to dodge. Dodging meant defeat. His own previous strike had been easily broken by Su Chen, so he had to regain the upper hand. How could he retreat?
Suddenly, Ye Cheng’s wrist flicked to its limit, incessantly, with an intensifying layer of Sword Intent and a tremendous buildup. The longsword he was holding then radiated an increasingly blinding light until, at the peak of this momentum, Ye Cheng himself seemed to merge with the longsword in his hand. All his essence, Qi, and spirit, along with all the Mysterious Qi and strength, were unrestrainedly poured into the longsword.
With this sword, he aimed to redeem his earlier humiliation!
The longsword moved, clashing directly against the Heavy Divine Sword, creating in the air a very subtle yet strangely unnerving sound of Sword Light.
The swords collided!!!
Initially, it felt utterly silent, like an illusion.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Cheng’s longsword... the longsword actually... actually... actually snapped in half, breaking from the middle like a snapped chopstick!
It was horrifying enough to petrify all the Martial Cultivators inside the Spiritual Affairs Pavilion.
In this clashing of swords, had Ye Cheng lost again?
And it seemed, he lost even more than the first move.
Moreover, the most terrifying thing was that Ye Cheng’s longsword was a Mid Quality Dao Tier sword!
For a while, there were sounds of swallowing.
And this was just the beginning. Fresh chapters posted on novｅlfire.net
In everyone’s eyes, after easily breaking Ye Cheng’s longsword, the Heavy Divine Sword continued to advance, still as ancient, dark, and full of mystery.
The Heavy Divine Sword directly landed on Ye Cheng’s shoulder.
In the instant it landed.
Ye Cheng’s Sword Light began to dissolve into nothingness!!! It shattered into dust!
Blood misted, spreading wildly.
In just the blink of an eye, Ye Cheng’s Physical Body had vanished from everyone’s sight.
The Heavy Divine Sword, too cruel.
With just one strike, it had slain Ye Cheng’s Physical Body.
Inside the Spiritual Affairs Pavilion, all the Outer Sect Disciples and newcomers were scared silly, as if they had lost their souls.
The strength displayed by Su Chen was supremely powerful!
"As for the Divine Soul, I won’t annihilate it this time. Next time, make sure you pick the right person before you provoke them," Su Chen glanced at Ye Cheng’s Divine Soul and said lightly.
Su Chen was about to leave.
But just at that moment,
"Wait a moment." The Fourth Elder, who had been standing by silently, suddenly spoke.
As soon as the Fourth Elder opened his mouth, the air inside the Spiritual Affairs Pavilion’s hall visibly solidified.
Many Martial Cultivators were so startled that they almost fainted.
The Fourth Elder spoke up—could it be... could it be... could it be that he was going to intervene? Could it be that the Fourth Elder would seek revenge for Wang He and Ye Cheng?
In the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect, Elders are almost at the absolute apex, and it’s rare to see them act.
But, being an Elder, one definitely possesses unimaginable, terrifying strength.
Su Chen stopped, turned his head, and looked at the Fourth Elder.
"What is your name?" the Fourth Elder stared intensely at Su Chen and asked.
"Su Chen," Su Chen replied without hiding anything, speaking indifferently.
"Su Chen?" The Fourth Elder’s eyes paused, he naturally had heard the name, wasn’t it the young man Heyue Nishang brought back from the Four Great Ancient Nations? According to Heyue Nishang, he was an Epoch Level genius.
The Fourth Elder took a deep breath, staring deeply at Su Chen and said, "Then, Su Chen, from today onwards, you are my disciple, Lin Xu, are you willing?"
The Fourth Elder, Lin Xu, was no fool, nor was he blind. From the few moves Su Chen had made against Wang He and Ye Cheng just now, he could see Su Chen’s terror.
Fifth Layer of Firmament Extreme Realm, possessing at least the strength of the Fifth Layer of Ancestral King Realm, if he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would not have believed it.
Heyue Nishang indeed had not exaggerated. Su Chen truly was an Epoch Level Super Genius!
How could he let this opportunity slip by?
They, twelve Elders, had all made a mistake in judgment by not wanting to accept Su Chen as a disciple, which was a huge mistake. Luckily, he had coincidentally encountered Su Chen.
Otherwise, wouldn’t that have been a missed opportunity?
Lin Xi felt somewhat fortunate.
And with the Fourth Elder speaking, the hall of the Spiritual Affairs Pavilion suddenly plunged into a chilling silence!!!
Even Wang He, who was severely injured and paralyzed at the entrance of the Pavilion, forgot the pain worse than death.
What... what did they hear? The Fourth Elder wanted Su Chen to be his disciple?
An Elder’s actions are never without purpose, meaning that as long as Su Chen nods, from this moment, he would be a disciple of the Fourth Elder, shifting from an Outer Sect Disciple to a True Disciple, and soaring to the heavens!
Inside and outside the Spiritual Affairs Pavilion, almost everyone stood still, their minds foggy, their hearts shattered by fear and shock.
What does it mean to ascend to the heavens in one step? Today, they witnessed it.
It seems, in the entire history of the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect, there hasn’t been a single instance where someone went from an Outer Sect Disciple to a True Disciple in one move, right?
Is this the creation of a historic miracle?
Compared to the trembling, terrified, and trembling spirits of others, Su Chen remained quiet, strangely quiet, eerily calm.
Su Chen looked at Lin Xi, and after a breath, spoke, "Fourth Elder’s kindness is appreciated, young one understands, but I refuse."
Su Chen’s voice was very calm, and very determined, without any hesitation.
Not for any other reason, but for a simple principle.
A second ago, you looked down on me, Su Chen, so the next moment, I, Su Chen, make myself unreachable for you.
From the moment all twelve Elders refused to accept him as a disciple, he had decided that from then on, he would not become a disciple of any of the twelve Elders.
As a person, one lives for pride.
In martial arts cultivation, one defies the heavens, and most importantly, achieves clarity of thought, doesn’t one?
