Chapter 299

Pfft!

Sharp wooden stakes, like arrows from a bow, shot toward Tie San's ribs.

Immediately after,

The air roared, as if a hurricane had whipped up all around.

A dull sound spread through the surroundings, heart-trembling fear.

The 'Wood Stake Crossbow' was fast as Lightning; the moment Chen Jie severed the mechanism, it vanished in a flash.

Fast, accurate, ruthless!

This crossbow trigger, its angle and timing of fire, were both incomparably precise.

Power merciless, impossible to guard against!

Next,

A heart-trembling fear scene appeared.

Only to see the Wood Stake Crossbow penetrate through Tie San's ribs, passing through to the other side.

Originally Tie San's ribs had suffered a fatal wound, killed by the bow and arrow.

And now,

The Wood Stake Crossbow instantly penetrated through the original wound, piercing through Tie San's body once again.

Swish—!

After Chen Jie triggered the prepared crossbow mechanism, his inner heart became extremely excited.

His feet surged forward, fully erupting Xingyi Damage Chong Step, pulling away the distance between him and Tie San.

However,

For some reason, upon seeing Tie San shot dead and fall by the Wood Stake Crossbow.

Chen Jie's heart surprisingly had not a shred of joy, instead a thread of sorrowful emotion emerged.

This emotion was very strange, actually able to suppress his originally excited mood.

Seemingly resentment toward himself, and also weariness toward this world.

In short, very hard to describe this feeling.

World-weariness emotion!

That's right, at this moment Chen Jie actually had a kind of world-weariness emotion.

Exhale—!

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, adjusting his mental state.

He didn't know why his heart would suddenly give rise to this kind of world-weariness emotion.

Just like a depression patient, his mind had serious problems.

Bang—!

Next.

Only to see Tie San crash down.

His body quickly turned into light points, rising from the ground, suspended in mid-air.

A moment later, the dense fog all around dispersed.

Memory light points condensed into a cluster, pouring into the crown of Chen Jie's head.

Swish!

Chen Jie sat cross-legged, slightly closed his eyes, beginning to absorb Tie San's Memory Inheritance.

Ambushing Tie San, although Chen Jie spent not little time, and prepared a lot.

Finally able to ambush successfully, luck accounted for a large reason.

Opportunistic trickery!

That's right, Chen Jie originally was a sneak attack, and used a crossbow mechanism.

But have to say,

In this battle with Tie San, Chen Jie fused his saber technique, leg technique, and footwork into thorough comprehension.

He erupted his 【Half-Step Grandmaster】 realm strength to the fullest.

The crossbow ambush needed to create timing, and seize Tie San's weakness.

Must limit Tie San's movement and dodging, heard conduct limit, only then at the last moment tear open Tie San's defense, erupt the most fierce crossbow arrow ambush.

Along with various martial arts and power realms stabilizing.

Chen Jie discovered his 【Grandmaster】 will prototype had already become very firm.

This moment,

Chen Jie felt his 【Half-Step Grandmaster】 realm, from breaking through to 【Grandmaster】 realm, only one step away.

His Three Major Martial Arts, during combat, fused thoroughly, movements unpredictable, untraceable.

Most importantly, Chen Jie's control over distance and killing move timing became increasingly proficient.

Boom

As Chen Jie began absorbing Tie San's memory.

In his brain sea, it was like a sky-covering huge wave surged up.

Saber technique broke through!

That's right, his "Qi Family Knife Technique" at this moment actually broke through!

Although his Martial Arts Power Realm has not yet broken through to 【Grandmaster】 realm.

But,

Yet his saber technique broke through the barrier first at this moment.

Grandmaster-level saber technique!

"Swift, fierce, blade intent condensed, hatred infinite, unstoppable!"

"Qi Family Saber Technique, truly unfathomable!"

"This is China's most top-level saber technique for resisting foreign enemies, it is a killing art——!"

Hum——!

At this time,

Chen Jie's brain roared.

Tie San's memory inheritance kept appearing in his brain.

This scene, the memory images were like short videos, just like Chen Jie's personal experience.

Memory fragments formed modular blocks.

Hu——!

Chen Jie couldn't help but exhale a breath.

Next,

He slightly closed his eyes, his inner heart beginning to recall Tie San's lifetime legend.

This is a Blade Path Grandmaster's lifetime memory.

Wu wu——!

In Chen Jie's brain, it was like huge waves continuously crashing.

The Blade Path Grandmaster's massive memory surged forth in his brain.

Fortunately Chen Jie's willpower was extremely firm.

Otherwise in such massive memory, he would very likely be overwhelmed by consciousness, causing his spirit to split.

This tearing memory scene is an extremely severe test for anyone.

——

【An orphan of ten-odd years, became a disciple at the residence of Imperial Guard Commanding General Lord Qi Wuhen!

In the Imperial Guard's great courtyard, on the training ground.

A middle-aged man, holding a saber in hand, was currently training his saber technique at this moment.

Wu wu——!

Saber technique fierce and swift, drawing the saber like lightning, fast beyond belief!

Sometimes like violent storm and sudden rain, sometimes gentle like wind.

Saber arrives intent arrives, intent arrives saber arrives!

Every saber strike was just right, incomparably precise.

Fast, accurate, ruthless!

The entire training ground seemed to be enveloped in blade light.

Qi Family Saber Technique Wu Lian Shi, fierce and vicious, bloodthirsty infinite!

Half a shichen later,

Only saw the middle-aged man stop the saber in hand, exhale a breath.

He raised his head looking at this orphan he personally saved, nodded.

Being able to accept the other, it showed the middle-aged man was very satisfied with his own vision.

Of course,

He was extremely amazed at this orphan's martial arts talent, perseverance, mindset.

Blade Path genius!

That's right,

This young orphan before him, in the middle-aged man's eyes, was the most top-level Blade Path genius.

"Heart has blade intent fierce as tiger! You are my third disciple, everything before has passed."

"Since you have already entered my Qi Wuhen's sect, from now on, you are called Tie San!"

——

【Bang, bang, bang——!

Crossing Fist, Slanting Slash, Piercing Blade——!

Blade momentum like dragon, hard and fierce invincible!

Young Tie San holding Qi Family Changdao in hand, stood at the training ground's edge.

He held his breath, gaze dead fixed on the training ground interior, feeling this blade intent's fierce tyranny!

That powerful blade momentum oppression gave him a suffocating feeling.

However,

At this time young Tie San legs standing, feet unmoving.

He was not suppressed by blade intent, not yielding in the slightest, gaze burning!

He kept staring at the middle-aged man's blade momentum changes inside the training ground.

Although that terrifying blade intent suppressed him until he could not breathe, making his face bloodless.

But,

Even though his forehead was covered in sweat, he did not wipe it once.

Stubborn!

Indeed, anyone seeing the young Tie San at this moment could see just how stubborn his willpower was.

Perhaps this is the arrogance of a Blade Path genius — never compromising, sharp-edged and fully revealed.

"Tie San, your inner heart is filled with hatred, very suitable for the tempering of Blade Intent!"

"If you can comprehend this hatred and transform it into your own Blade Intent, you can break through to the Grandmaster Realm!"

"Hatred! Is also a kind of artistic conception!"

The middle-aged man stopped practicing the saber, turned his head toward the young Tie San, and said indifferently.

Thud—!

The young Tie San finally could not endure that fierce and domineering Blade Intent, and collapsed onto the ground in a heap.

Only to see his back soaked with sweat, his whole body as if on the verge of collapse.

After resting for a moment.

He raised his head to look at the middle-aged man, and said with a face full of respect:

"Many thanks for Master's teaching! I understand — from now on, my saber technique shall be called Anger Blade!"

"With the hatred in my heart, temper the most vicious Blade Intent!"

"However deep the hatred, that fast the saber!"

"Master is the world's top Blade Path Grandmaster, the Imperial Guard's First Grandmaster, famous throughout the world!"

"I believe Master will surely temper a second Blade Intent, break the shackles in one stroke, and step into the Blade Path Great Grandmaster Realm!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man smiled indifferently and said:

"Enough, stop flattering me!"

"So young, you haven't learned anything else, but you've already learned to flatter first."

"Going on like this is no good for you; you should instead pour your entire mindset into your saber technique!"

Although he said this with his mouth.

However,

From the smile on the middle-aged man's face, it could be seen that he seemed to feel full of pride in his heart at Tie San's flattery.

Blade Path Grandmaster Qi Wuhen!

He indeed had the qualification to be proud.

At this time,

His whole body emitted a suffocatingly domineering aura, Blade Intent sharp-edged and fully revealed, giving a sense of infinite oppression.

"Tie San, your Blade Path foundation is already more or less complete!"

"For the next period, this master will teach you the true Qi Family Saber Technique!"

"With your talent, breaking through to the Grandmaster Realm is just around the corner—!"

—

【Wu Kui City, Imperial Guard, Commanding Platform!

Clang clang—!

Drawing the saber like wind, bloodthirsty and traceless!

One step one saber, one saber one step, every saber vicious, unstoppable!

One saber in hand, I am invincible!

This is the tempering of saber technique, the sublimation of will!

Saber in heart, I alone am supreme!

Clang!

One saber strikes, ghosts and gods tremble!

Only to see a long saber slash across, stabbing with extreme precision into the opponent's neck vital point!

One saber kills!

This saber was extremely domineering, vicious, cold-blooded!

The opponent simply had no time to make any reaction before being killed with one saber!

Whoo—!

The entire Commanding Platform whipped up a hurricane; many surrounding onlookers were enveloped by the Blade Intent, their hearts feeling incomparably terrified!

Too strong—!

Using hatred as medium, taking saber as supreme!

"Too strong! Tie San's saber technique has already deeply received General Qi's true transmission; this Commanding Platform, almost no one is Tie San's opponent!"

"Tie San's saber technique artistic conception is too fierce, too terrifying, as if there is a strand of hatred!"

"Heard this fellow is an orphan, taken in by General Qi since childhood, heart cruel hand spicy!"

"He once said, he doesn't want to be some Grandmaster, only wants to become the sharpest saber in General Qi's hand — and he did it!"

"Tie San truly lives up to being General Qi's True Disciple; only thirty-three years old, already broken through to the Grandmaster Realm!"

"Blade Path Grandmaster! The Imperial Guard already has five Blade Path Grandmasters, too terrifying!"

"General Qi's most capable disciple; looks like the Guard Commander President position, General Qi will have Tie San assume it!"

"As long as you give Tie San time, he will surely become a top Blade Path Grandmaster like General Qi, become the First Person under Great Grandmaster Zhan Wuji!"

"Hard to say; Tie San willingly serves the saber, uses hatred to temper his Blade Intent, his mindset has already become twisted, reveres offense, cuts off his own future, loses the qualification to become a Great Grandmaster!"

"Right, General Qi certainly won't easily pass on his mantle to Tie San!"

Below the Commanding Platform, all the spectators discussed animatedly.

After Tie San killed his opponent with one move.

He stood on the Commanding Platform, his face cold and indifferent.

At this time,

There was no pride on his face, only hatred!

Tempering Blade Intent with hatred!

This is Tie San's Grandmaster Path.

On the Commanding Platform, invincible, unstoppable—this is Tie San!

He is a Disciple of the Guard Commander President's Qi Family Army, and he did not disgrace his master.

At this time,

Tie San raised his head toward the Guard Commander President's direction, a silent cry in his Inner Heart.

He won!

He finally broke through to the Blade Path Grandmaster Realm, using hatred as the medium, successfully breaking through to become a true Blade Path Grandmaster.

On the Commanding Platform, who could defeat him?

Tie San took a Deep Breath, raising his head to look at the crowd discussing all around.

The hatred in his Inner Heart tempered his Blade Intent, reaching its Peak at this moment.

Cold and ruthless, hatred surging to the heavens!

Powerful Blade Intent enveloped the surroundings, suffocating.

Everyone around felt Tie San's Blade Intent and fell silent, no one stepping forward.

Next,

Only to see Tie San raise his head toward that tall and mighty middle-aged man in the Guard Commander President's direction.

Exhale—!

Tie San retracted his Hatred Blade Intent, shouting respectfully:

"Master! On the Commanding Platform, I did it, breaking through to the Blade Path Grandmaster Realm!"

The middle-aged man nodded, a trace of calmness on his face, saying:

"Using hatred as the medium, mind free of distractions, bloodthirsty and ruthless!"

"Indeed so, Blade Intent tempered, sword taking an unexpected path, breaking through to the Grandmaster Realm with hatred—the direction is correct!"

"Your martial path is now completely different!"

The middle-aged man looked at Tie San, who had already withdrawn his hatred, saying helplessly.

Next,

He shook his head, not knowing what was in his Inner Heart, turning to leave outside the Commanding Platform.

Waa—!

The next moment,

Above the Commanding Platform, fierce winds were Lingering.

Suddenly, a violent storm raged around, and in the sky actually appeared a condensed manifestation of a giant saber!

Sword Intent Traceless!

This is Qi Wuhen's Blade Intent, encompassing all things!

"Tie San! Your Blade Intent contains hatred, with infinite power, you will become one of my Guard Commander President's strongest Blade Path Grandmasters!"

"From today on, the position of Guard Commander President shall be held by you!"

"Go, our master-disciple fate is exhausted; it is time for you to leave your master. The future Guard Commander President shall be led by you!"

Tie San heard this and was stunned for a moment.

Thud!

Suddenly,

He knelt before the middle-aged man, kowtowing and saying:

"One day as master, a lifetime as father! Master, I do not want to leave you!"

"I said, I cultivate saber arts to become the sharpest blade in your hand!"

"My Blade Intent is hatred. I hate myself for coming to this World, I hate all under heaven, I will slaughter everything!"

"Master, you taught me that my Grandmaster Intent is hatred!"

"Why do you want to leave me? Master—why?"

—

"Charge—charge—!

The Imperial Court's hundred thousand great army, charging into Wu Kui City!

Military orders are like mountains; this time encircling Wu Kui City, the Guard Commander President's entire army is mobilized.

As the Cheng Men of Wu Kui City was blasted open, the great army shouted as they charged in.

The shouts of killing shook the heavens!

Tie San wore the Guard Commander President's uniform, full of spirit, cold and ruthless!

By his side followed several 'Great Blade Commanders' of the Guard Commander President, including Junior Brother Ning Wuque.

At this moment,

Tie San's gaze was deeply terrifying, his whole body radiating an astonishing hatred!

Whenever tempering Blade Intent, his Mindset would become twisted, filled with hatred.

Hate heaven, hate earth, hate everything in this World!

He could not describe this state of himself, only knowing that to perfectly erupt his Blade Intent, he must be filled with hatred.

He is Qi Wuhen's Disciple, currently holding the post of Guard Commander President.

He does not understand why Master Qi Wuhen said his master-disciple Fate with him was exhausted, telling him to leave his Master!

But,

Master did not let him leave Jingcheng, but instead stepped down, letting him serve as the Guard Commander President.

Why?

What exactly is Master's intention?

Just as Tie San led the Guard Commander President's men into Wu Kui City in a grand procession.

On the Street,

An ordinary Guard Commander President soldier rode hard on a fast Horse toward this direction.

"Report! Commander Tie, Commander Ning, at the Wu Kui City center Evaluation Plaza, Wu Kui City City Lord Xiang Tianxiao has made a move!"

"The Imperial Court Ten Grandmasters and the Wan Kui City Nine Great Sects are locked in a melee!"

"General Qi has ordered everyone to go encircle and suppress the Nine Great Schools first!"

Finished speaking,

Only to see the ordinary soldier's hand Take out the military tally, both hands Hand over to Tie San!

This is the Guard Commander President's military tally!

See the military tally, as if seeing Qi Wuhen!
