Sovereign of the Heaven - C196
All the money that Di Chen had earned in this period of time had been spent on Zi Yan and he had finally helped her condense five Blood-Drinking Sword. With his current strength, he estimated that there were not many within the Lifestealer Realm that could deal with her.
“Oh yeah,” Di Chen changed the subject, “Zi Yan, there’s something I haven’t told you. A while ago, I met Xiang Qing, and in place of you, I made an appointment to fight him. If he wins, I will give him the five sets of Blood-Drinking Sword.
Zi Yan was startled, then realized why Di Chen wanted his to condense all five Blood-Drinking Sword s into martial soul. She became slightly angry: “That sword was mine to begin with, why would he use that sword to bet with me?”
Di Chen laughed: “Previously, he had a powerful expert by his side to help him, I did not have a choice, but luckily, with your current strength, he shouldn’t be able to beat you.”
After Zi Yan finished condensing the five Sword Martial Spirit s, he also gained some confidence. He thought for a while and asked, “When will we fight?”
Di Chen calculated the time and said: “It will be tomorrow.
Zi Yan nodded, following that he started to recover his spirit force, after a few hours his spirit force had finally recovered.
The next day.
Both Xiang Qing and Zi Yan were not powerful people in Famous Sword Academy, but Xiang Qing had a bit of a reputation. It had not been long since he broke through to the ninth stage of Life Seizing Stage, but he was exceptionally strong, and had already surpassed Xiang Xue, who was previously the strongest in the Lifestealer Realm. Today, Xiang Qing wanted to fight with someone in the martial arts arena, and this battle had attracted a lot of people.
Xiang Qing had already stood on stage, calmly waiting for Zi Yan, and beneath the stage was Xiang Zuo, but Zi Yan had not come.
After a few minutes, Zi Yan finally appeared in everyone’s line of sight, beside his were Di Chen and Bai Qian.
“That should be Di Chen, a literati, previously the number one person in Lifestealer Realm, but I’m afraid that he has already broken through to King Wen.”
No one was interested in Zi Yan at all, but they were all interested in him.
“This Zi Yan must have been destroyed by the Clear Water Academy previously, and her talent is average, his strength is not strong. This Xiang Qing came from the back, and now even Xiang Xue is not his opponent.
Zi Yan’s spirit energy did not fluctuate too much. He could not tell that he was a strong Ranker, so no one held any hope.
Di Chen looked at the stage and laughed: “Seems like he is very confident, Zi Yan, when I go up later on, I will use the martial soul.”
Zi Yan’s sword technique was too weak, so it was of no use.
“Alright,” Zi Yan nodded, then walked up the stage.
Xiang Qing did not look at Zi Yan, but looked at Di Chen from afar and sneered, how could Di Chen not understand his intentions, it was most likely that he wanted to kill Zi Yan in public.
“Zi Yan…” Xiao Qing’s gaze finally fell upon Zi Yan, and said: “I didn’t think that you would actually dare to come, do you know that this stage does not care about life and death, if you die, don’t blame me, after all, Di Chen was the one who asked you to come and compete with me.”
Zi Yan hatefully stared at Xiang Qing and did not speak. He tapped on the center of his eyebrows and a short, scarlet Spirit Sword flew out, shooting towards Xiang Qing.
“Hmm? You actually started training in the Sword Martial Spirit again? ”
Xiang Qing did not expect Zi Yan to actually be able to cultivate the Sword Martial Spirit anew, but it was not unexpected. There were many people who had to cultivate the martial soul anew, but in such a short period of time, they should not be able to display their true strength.
Ding!
The two swords clashed, and let out a clear sound. Huang Qing only felt a numbing sensation on his arm, and the Spirit Sword directly shattered into pieces, while Zi Yan’s Sword Martial Spirit directly pierced through his shoulder, and flew back with him.
“Is this Sword Martial Spirit that strong?” Seeing this, everyone was shocked, thinking that Zi Yan’s Sword Martial Spirit seemed to be even stronger than the previous Sword Martial Spirit.
Xiang Zuo’s face was also filled with disbelief, Di Chen was not surprised, this Blood-Drinking Sword was originally a treasure of the five families of Demon Generals, and this was only one of them, five of them would be even more powerful.
Zi Yan took this opportunity to give chase, and control the Sword Martial Spirit to shoot towards Qing.
“Dammit,” Xiang Qing finally realized that he had underestimated Zi Yan. His elemental energy gushed out crazily as he punched towards Sword Martial Spirit: “Everlasting Fist.”
A huge fist struck Sword Martial Spirit, directly pushing him back.
He threw out another punch, and another fist image flew towards Zi Yan. This Limitless Fist was mainly directed at with power, and was the most powerful attack he had ever performed against Qing, but it was difficult for him to defend against it with just his power alone.
Zi Yan tapped on the center of his brows again, and another Blood-Drinking Sword flew out. Two Sword Martial Spirit s soared into the sky, and then shot towards the fist shadows at the same time.
“Two Sword Martial Spirit s?” There were quite a few Famous Sword Academy s, but a talent like Zi Yan being able to train in two Sword Martial Spirit s was truly shocking.
Xiang Qing’s numerous punches were easily defeated by Zi Yan, making him look extremely miserable.
Below the stage, Xiang Zuo shouted anxiously: “What are you holding back, hurry up and use the martial soul.”
Xiang Qing had always looked down on Zi Yan, so he did not want to use his Sword Martial Spirit. However, this time, he was forced into a corner by Zi Yan, so he could not retreat at all.
Pointing the huge sword toward the green man, the huge sword directly faced off against the two Blood-Drinking Sword s. The three swords clashed in the air and produced clanging sounds, which showed that they clearly had the upper hand against the green man’s Sword Martial Spirit.
“Fortunately, I had strengthened the power of this Sword Martial Spirit.”
Seeing this, Xiang Qing heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Zi Yan and snorted: “To be able to force me to use my Sword Martial Spirit, I had underestimated your strength, but since I had already used my Sword Martial Spirit, you will definitely lose.”
Zi Yan also did not speak, and he tapped the center of his brows once again. The third Blood-Drinking Sword flew out and joined the battle, and the three Blood Drinking Pills attacked the green colored Sword Martial Spirit at the same time.
“Impossible,” Xiang Qing said incredulously. It was already surprising that he could cultivate two Sword Martial Spirit s, but with Zi Yan’s talent, he could actually cultivate three?
Xiang Qing immediately knew that something was wrong. He wanted to take over the Sword Martial Spirit, but he was already a step too late. Three Blood-Drinking Sword s slashed onto the huge sword, causing the huge sword to crumble.
Blood-Drinking Sword s were very demonic and were inherently strong. It was normal for them to be unable to resist the green-colored Sword Martial Spirit.
“My Sword Martial Spirit,” Xiang Qing’s face was full of shock. Sword Martial Spirit being destroyed meant that half of his strength had been crippled.
“I’ll kill you,” Xiang Qing was enraged, he immediately took out a sword and slashed at Zi Yan, the sword was the one he snatched from Zi Yan previously, but it seemed to be ordinary looking sword, and was not very strong.
Seeing that, Xiang Zuo’s face changed, and he immediately shouted: “Xiang Qing, come back, you are not her opponent.”
Even the Sword Martial Spirit had been destroyed, that was Qing Qing’s most powerful move, Qing Qing’s impulsive charge was simply suicide, but Xiang Qing could not care so much right now.
Zi Yan controlled three more Blood-Drinking Sword s to shoot towards Qing, and the three swords immediately pierced through Qing’s body, causing him to fly out and lie down motionlessly in the pool of blood. This time, he did not have the strength to fight, but Zi Yan did not kill him.
“Did you lose?” Everyone originally thought that Xiang Qing would definitely easily defeat Zi Yan, but they didn’t expect this result to be far beyond their expectations.
To be able to defeat Xiang Qing proved that Zi Yan was the strongest in the Lifestealer Realm.
Zi Yan did not expect himself to defeat Xiang Qing so easily, and was secretly happy in his heart, he then picked up the sword previously, and when the sword came into his hand, he could feel a powerful force, although the sword could not unleash any of its power, in Zi Yan’s hand.
“Why didn’t you kill me?” Mu Qing looked at Zi Yan hatefully. He was already half a cripple after being destroyed, and he did not have the luck of Zi Yan to cultivate a new powerful martial soul.
Zi Yan sneered: “I didn’t even use my strength just now, if I wanted to kill you, I could have at any time, so how would I waste my time.”
In the future, Xiang Qing would not be a threat to Zi Yan, so Zi Yan was too lazy to kill him.
“You …” Xiang Qing looked at Zi Yan with hatred, he really did not expect that one day, he would be looked down upon by Zi Yan.
Zi Yan did not care about him, walked to the bottom of the stage, and said excitedly: “Di Chen, Bai Qian, I’ve won.”
Di Chen laughed: “I’m afraid no one can compare to you in Famous Sword Academy now, what you need to do now is to break through the Martial King Realm as soon as possible.”
Zi Yan’s strength had already reached the limits of Lifestealer Realm, and he could already break through Martial King Realm.
Zi Yan nodded twice in affirmation.
Bai Qian laughed bitterly: “Now that Zi Yan’s strength has surpassed mine, I don’t know when I’ll be able to break through the Martial King Realm.”
After Di Chen entered the Famous Sword Academy, his strength did not improve at all. Now that even Zi Yan, who had always been under his protection, had surpassed him, he did feel some regret.
“There will always be a chance, let’s go,” Di Chen comforted his. In fact, it was thanks to the five Blood-Drinking Sword s that Zi Yan was able to raise his strength.
The few of them did not plan to stay. They turned around and left.
“Di Chen…” At this moment, Xiang Zuo’s angry voice came from behind him.
Di Chen stopped and looked at Xiang Zuo curiously: “What’s the matter?”
Xiang Zuo said in a low voice, “I will remember this grudge when Qi Qing was injured by you. One day, I will definitely seek revenge.”
Di Chen didn’t even bother to answer him, how could Xiang Zuo possibly threaten Di Chen if he didn’t know that Jing Shi had already been killed by Di Chen?
Xiang Zuo was still a direct disciple after all, but ever since he had met Di Chen, he had been defeated by him many times, and now, Di Chen did not even spare him a glance. This completely infuriated him, and in his heart, he already had to kill Di Chen no matter what, but it was naturally impossible for him to continue staying in the Famous Sword Academy.
