Chapter 640
Kill! A Deadly Kill - A Connecting Line
"No! You're not a Martial Saint! Your primordial spirit hasn't manifested—!"
"Yanluo" Shan Tu looked Chen Jie up and down, and quickly denied his earlier judgment.
Although Chen Jie's combat strength is no weaker than that of a Martial Saint, his Spirit Refining Realm is only at the "Late Stage of Concentration and Observation," and he has not broken through to the "Sitting in Oblivion" stage.
The primordial spirit is not manifest!
In other words, Chen Jie's current state does not indicate that he has broken through to the level of a Martial Saint's primordial spirit manifestation.
'Yanluo' Shan Tu's father was the Bitter Saint of the Kunlun Sword Sect, so he naturally had a great understanding of the state of a Martial Saint.
He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said:
"How can your Dharma power be so strong? How did you do it?"
"So, the person Yang Wenbo ran to for support in the Kunlun Mountains was you?"
"Kid, who exactly are you?"
He turned to look at Yang Wenbo, his gaze becoming deep.
No matter how much he planned, he never expected that Yang Wenbo's backer would be so powerful.
If it were just a martial artist at the Great Perfection of the Meridian Opening Qi realm, perhaps he would have some means to deal with it.
Even a martial artist at the early stage of 'Unbreakable Godhood' could negotiate with the other party by relying on his father's prestige.
but,
When he learned that the opponent's strength was no weaker than that of a Martial Saint, he had a bad feeling.
Yang Wenbo's mind went blank.
Even now, he still doesn't understand what's going on.
He couldn't even understand why 'Yanluo' Shan Tu would suddenly be so wary of Chen Jie, this scholar.
Even now, he couldn't sense any martial arts aura from Chen Jie.
"Kid, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."
'Yanluo' Shan Tu took a deep breath, took two steps back, and regained his composure.
His aura began to erupt at full power, and a strange glint flashed in his eyes.
at the same time,
At this moment, the sword in his hand actually condensed into a Dharma form.
Borrow a sword!
That's right, just like when Chen Jie fought Situ Wushang, he forcibly activated the [Martial Saint Sect] to borrow the power of the Martial Saint.
At this moment, Yama Dan Tu, using some unknown means, actually borrowed the power of his father, the Bitter Saint, through a secret technique.
"Without condensing your primordial spirit, you're just like me, using the power of a Martial Saint to take shortcuts!"
"Under my Bitter Sea Sword, your body will be cleaved like wood."
"Haha—kid, I can't wait to see you kneel on the ground and beg for mercy."
Dan Tu licked his lips and burst into loud laughter.
He was like a psychopath; after using his secret technique, he became extremely insane.
Chen Jie calmly looked up at the other person, still maintaining the demeanor of a scholar.
"What if I insist on meddling in this?"
His eyes were indifferent as he spoke calmly.
"Yama" Shan Tu laughed wildly, his face contorted in a terrifying grimace, and said in a vicious voice:
"Then I'll kill you, cut off your head, skin you, and turn you into—a human skin lantern!"
boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, a strange, deep blue light shone in his eyes.
In an instant,
A huge phantom appeared behind 'Yanluo' Shan Tu.
Sword Saint Technique - Ten Thousand Swords Return to One!
The sword-wielding phantom instantly transformed into hundreds of flying swords.
The killing intent was several times more intense and powerful than before, enveloping the spot where Chen Jie stood.
Waaah—!
At that moment, the air itself seemed to be completely torn apart.
From the side, at this moment, 'Yanluo' Shan Tu looked like a giant spider floating in the air, manipulating hundreds of swords to launch a deadly attack.
Hundreds of sword shadows, formed from primordial qi, instantly blocked all of Chen Jie's escape routes.
this moment,
A savage smile appeared on the face of 'Yanluo' Shan Tu.
He seemed to be able to foresee what would happen next.
The scholar before him would be torn to shreds by his "Ten Thousand Swords Return to One" technique, instantly slashed into hundreds of pieces, leaving no trace of his body.
He borrowed the sword intent of his father, the "Bitter Saint," through a secret technique, and was full of confidence in his sword saint technique.
In the Guanzhong region, he used this move to kill a super strong person who had reached the Divine Indestructible Realm.
but,
The next second, the expression on his face froze instantly.
Faced with the aerial attacks of hundreds of sword phantoms, Chen Jie remained calm, simply making a very simple gesture.
He calmly extended his palm.
hum!
next moment,
His hands clenched slightly, and it was as if a tsunami had been triggered around him.
A vortex appeared in his palm.
Waaaaah—waaaah—!
The vortex grew larger and larger, engulfing everything around it.
The area within dozens of meters around him was enveloped by the vortex in his palm, which seemed to contain endless attraction.
The hundreds of sword phantoms that 'Yanluo' Shan Tu unleashed with his Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin technique all fell into the vortex in his palm and quickly disappeared.
He didn't block, retreat, or fight head-on; instead, he easily broke through Yama's Sword Saint Technique, Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin, with just one palm.
What kind of strength is this?
not far away,
Bai He, who witnessed this scene, stared wide-eyed, and her whole body began to tremble involuntarily.
She was trembling uncontrollably, as if she had witnessed a miracle. Her legs, shoulders, and even her lips were shaking.
"Sword Saint! This is—the Sword Saint's Dharma Body Control!"
What is the control of Dharma appearance?
With every gesture, everything in the world is under control!
When Bai He was in her sect, her master once told her about the Sword Saint's methods.
She originally thought that all of this was just a legend.
but,
Upon witnessing the vortex in Chen Jie's palm, memories from the past suddenly flooded her mind.
It was as if a legend that I could only dream of before had suddenly appeared before my eyes.
this moment,
How could Bai He not be so excited that she trembled all over?
It was as if a mortal suddenly witnessed a deity descending to earth.
The emotional impact of this is unimaginable.
Not far away, 'Yanluo' Shan Tu was completely stunned, and his voice became hoarse.
"Damn it—what on earth is going on?"
He stared at it all in disbelief, his head buzzing.
By using a secret technique to borrow the power of the Sword Saint, although one's combat strength cannot truly reach the level of the Sword Saint, it is still terrifying, at least close to that of a Quasi-Saint.
It's as if he possesses the projected combat power of his father, the "Bitter Saint".
The Dharma Image Control that Chen Jie just displayed overturned his understanding.
He couldn't believe that someone could break his "Myriad Swords Return to Origin" technique instantly with just one hand.
Effortless!
Yang Wenbo, Gu Xingsheng, the old chieftain of Xueshan Ancient Village, and the beautiful Gu Xue were all completely dumbfounded.
As martial artists, they felt as insignificant as ants at this moment.
Hundreds of sword phantoms were controlled by the Dharma image in Chen Jie's palm, held in his hand.
The innate sword energy was grasped as if one hand were holding a bundle of rope.
'Yanluo' Shan Tu frantically activated his innate sword energy, but he felt as if there was a mountain in front of him, which remained unmoved.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't activate his sword illusory image.
These are all the sword saint's powers activated by secret techniques.
Once he loses this power, his father, the Bitter Saint, is likely to suffer a backlash from it.
"Impossible! Who are you? How can you control the power of a Sword Saint!"
Even when 'Yama' was alone, he would bite his teeth until they bled, and his eyes would turn bloodshot.
He became extremely insane, his whole being seemed neurotic, and his eyes, which already radiated a deep blue light, became even more eerie.
Anyone nearby could see that 'Yanluo' Shan Tu's current state was somewhat off.
"Humph! It's too much!"
Chen Jie's hands slowly clenched, and his gaze turned extremely cold.
As he began to retract the power of his Dharma body, the innate sword energy unleashed by 'Yanluo' Dan Tu actually began to shatter.
"Ah—!" 'Yanluo' Shan Tu let out a cry of surprise, and like a dead dog, he involuntarily moved closer to Chen Jie's palm.
The vortex finally enveloped him, rendering him unable to move.
this moment,
'Yam' Shan Tu was utterly terrified, struggling wildly, trying to break free from the control of Chen Jie's Dharma power.
Swish!
Suddenly, he stopped, and his aura became extremely violent.
"I don't care who you are, if we're going to die, we'll die together!"
Everything will perish!
Unexpectedly, 'Yanluo' Shan Tu actually planned to perish together with Chen Jie.
As soon as he finished speaking, the violent aura emanating from him far surpassed his previous state.
boom--!
The air seemed to explode, and a shockwave spread outwards.
Everyone around felt a terrifying pressure that made it hard to breathe.
Everyone could clearly feel their hearts pounding violently, as if they were about to explode, which was extremely uncomfortable.
Upon seeing this, Gu Xingsheng's expression completely changed.
He shouted to everyone in the ancient village:
"Back off! Everyone back off! He's going to self-destruct!"
finished,
He endured his injuries and rushed towards Ya Ya, wanting to be the first to take her away.
The others turned pale when they saw this.
Although no one knew what the 'self-destruction' meant, judging from the chieftain's expression at that moment, they knew that the power of the self-destruction must be extremely terrifying.
Bai He pulled Lan Feng back, but unexpectedly Lan Feng said in a trembling voice, "I won't leave, I want to stand with Chen Jie."
In a short while,
Under Gu Xingsheng's leadership, everyone retreated more than ten meters away in the shortest amount of time.
Only Chen Jie stood calmly in place, motionless.
He looked up at 'Yama' Shan Tu, who had gone completely mad and whose face was distorted, and shook his head slightly.
"Your willpower is very strong, and your martial arts level is also very good!"
"But I have to say, your strength is simply—as weak as an ant."
"If your father, 'Bitter Saint,' were here, he might still be able to fight me."
"And you are not qualified!"
Chen Jie spoke calmly.
next moment,
The mad state that 'Yanluo' Dan Tu had been in was instantly frozen.
Before him lay the entire valley of the ancient village in the snowy mountains.
Awooo—!
A giant dragon phantom rose slowly from behind Chen Jie.
Although it was already dusk and the sky was darkening.
but,
The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the rocks in the valley and falls on the rooftops of the ancient village in the snow-capped mountains.
in addition,
The setting sun reflected on the snow-capped mountains, falling perfectly into the valley.
At this moment, in everyone's eyes, the giant dragon image that appeared behind Chen Jie almost overshadowed the setting sun.
A radiant light rises from the ground!
That powerful and invincible aura sent chills down one's spine.
in fact,
It was all just an illusion; Chen Jie remained unchanged.
He stood still, without moving an inch.
but,
The colossal dragon image behind him, however, condensed the power of heaven and earth together, becoming incomparably dazzling, enormous, and majestic like a mountain.
It was as if he had transformed into a real dragon at that moment.
A crimson-golden light was released from the dragon phantom on his body.
This invincible aura is not just visual, but strikes straight to the soul.
The moment the dragon's form rose up, 'Yama' Shan Tu's body, which was about to self-destruct, was like a balloon whose valve had been squeezed.
His violent aura was like ice and snow in a raging fire at this moment.
In the blink of an eye,
The ice and snow melted, turning into water droplets that disappeared without a trace.
Behind Chen Jie was a giant dragon, burning with raging flames, fierce, domineering, and supreme!
His originally handsome appearance and tall figure now exuded an aura of unparalleled nobility.
From a distance,
He imagined himself as a dragon deity from mythology, capable of annihilating all demons and monsters on earth.
Chen Jie slowly loosened his grip!
next moment,
His hand, which had absorbed the power of the Sword Saint, exploded instantly!
boom!
This innate sword energy, which was unleashed by the sword saint power of the 'Bitter Saint', was actually condensed into a single force by an invisible power.
A gigantic sword shadow stood suspended in mid-air.
At this moment, Chen Jie's mind became clear, and he seemed to see a sword light under the starry sky!
Then, the sword light shot out with a whoosh!
Sword Saint Technique - A Thousand Miles of Deadly Strike Through a Single Line!
The starlight was dazzling, and the power of heaven and earth merged with the sword saint power of 'Bitter Saint', instantly piercing through the heart of 'Yanluo' Dan Tu!
Use their own methods against them!
This is the sword power of his father, the Bitter Saint, a talisman that his father specially left for him!
but,
Unexpectedly, this 'protective charm' became his death warrant.
Puff-!
'Yanluo' Shan Tu lay on the ground, his eyes fixed on Chen Jie.
His pupils began to dilate, and until the moment of his death, his face retained an expression of shock and disbelief.
"I want to know—who exactly are you?"
Blood gushed from the mouth of 'Yama' Shan Tu.
He lay on the ground, his body convulsing and spasming.
A sword pierced his heart, tearing through his defenses and taking his life.
All he wants to know now is who killed him.
unfortunately,
Chen Jie was in a terrible mood and had no desire to answer 'Yanluo' Shan Tu's question.
He originally thought he had perfectly created this Sword Saint skill—Thousand-Mile Annihilation!
but,
Even when he unleashed his full power just now, he felt that he hadn't even managed to unleash one-tenth of the profound power he had imagined.
"Sitting in Oblivion! It seems that to truly unleash the power of 'A Thousand Miles of Deadly Strike Connected by a Single Thread,' I must break through to the state of Sitting in Oblivion and condense my primordial spirit!"
next moment,
He saw the remaining two guards fleeing desperately out of the valley.
"Trying to run? Too late!"
Chen Jie vented his frustration on the two escaped guards.
Clang!
A single sword's chilling light pierces nineteen provinces!
A sword light flashed past, hurtling towards the two guards who had already run several hundred meters away.
Puff-!
In the blink of an eye, the two guards fell to the ground, their eyes wide open.
A sword swept across their throats, their heads flying off instantly, leaving them decapitated.
After their lower bodies had run more than ten meters, they collapsed to the ground.
Their heads were more than ten meters apart from their bodies.
at this time,
Ya Ya had already lowered her hands, which had been covering her eyes.
She seemed stunned by the sight of blood, her face turning deathly pale.
Chen Jie stepped forward and patted Ya Ya with his hand, using his powerful mental strength to calm her down.
this moment,
Everyone in the entire Snow Mountain Ancient Village was so shocked by the scene before them that they were speechless.
The surroundings were so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
All that could be heard was the sound of the waterfall not far from the ancient village in the snow-capped mountains, as well as the calls of chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs within the village.
Whether it was Gu Xingsheng, Yang Wenbo, or even Lan Feng and Bai He, their minds went completely blank. (End of Chapter)
