Chapter 152: Jian Chen's Opportunity

After Huang Ying agreed to submit to Di Shitian, Di Shitian did not break his word; he helped Huang Ying break through his Golden Blade Qi, allowing him to master "Platinum" Blade Qi.

Furthermore, Di Shitian imparted to Huang Ying a higher martial art than the Seven Blade Intents—the Seven Absolute Blade Arts.

Huang Ying's power was no longer what it once was.

Of course, the current Nie Feng did not only possess the Cold Pride Six Absolutes blade technique; he had the Wind Blade comprehended from the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin, and even more, the Ten Strong Martial Arts that had sent Di Shitian retreating step by step.

After a bout of competition, the two began to use higher-level martial arts.

Using the Seven Absolute Blade Arts, Huang Ying transformed his body directly into the likeness of seven Shocking Silence blades.

And Nie Feng, using Wind Blade, similarly transformed into the form of a tornado, only the tornado was composed of countless Xue Yin blade likenesses.

The seven Shocking Silence blades charged rapidly into the Snow Drink blade tornado.

Below the arena, one could only hear a series of clashing sounds, as the white figure of Huang Ying and the blue figure of Nie Feng constantly intersected.

At the moment the two weapons clashed, the advantage of Nie Feng, who possessed the Ten Strong Martial Arts, immediately became apparent.

The Wind God Leg, which had long since merged with the leg techniques of the Ten Strong Martial Arts, had been simplified to its essence; although Nie Feng only lightly kicked Huang Ying,

Huang Ying felt as if Mount Tai were pressing down on him, and his internal organs were on the verge of splitting.

Seeing Huang Ying defect to Di Shitian, Nie Feng considered him a person who clung to life and feared death, so Nie Feng did not hold back with this kick.

Distracted, Huang Ying was caught in a moment of vulnerability by Nie Feng, who struck him flying with a single blow.

Huang Ying fell to the ground, covered in blood, and before he could even speak, he fainted dead away.

Seeing this, Di Shitian used his True Qi to draw Huang Ying directly in front of him.

After lightly infusing True Qi into Huang Ying, Huang Ying stood up, full of vigor.

Witnessing this miracle, the crowd below was even more stirred.

They were all experts and could tell at a glance that Huang Ying's injuries were severe; he should not have been able to get out of bed for ten days or a fortnight.

To think that after Di Shitian lightly infused some True Qi, Huang Ying was actually full of vigor.

Could this Di Shitian truly be an omnipotent god?

The hearts of the crowd began to waver, for this Di Shitian was truly like a god, possessing god-like abilities.

Di Shitian glanced at Nie Feng and said to Pojun at his side:

"Pojun, go down there.

Let me see your progress during this time!"

"As you command, Master!"

After Pojun replied, he flew directly onto the arena.

Nie Feng's own consumption from the battle with Huang Ying had been extreme.

Shuang was about to speak up to have Nie Feng come down so he could go up himself, when Jianchi, who had been silent all along, spoke up.

"Brother Nie, could you yield Pojun to me!"

Knowing Jian Chen's strength, just as Qin Shuang was about to open his mouth to stop him, Duan Fengyun said:

"It's fine, Shuang, let Jian Chen go up.

I believe he can handle Pojun."

Jian Chen looked at Duan Fengyun in surprise; could it be that Duan Fengyun had discovered his change!

But he still opened his mouth to thank Duan Fengyun:

"Many thanks, Duan Fengyun."

Duan Fengyun nodded at Jian Chen and smiled:

"Go, show your strength to let Pojun and Senior Wuming see.

Let the heroes of the world know that you, this disciple of Wuming, are not a name without substance."

Jian Chen nodded and leaped onto the arena.

Nie Feng said:

"Jian Chen, then Pojun is left to you.

You must avenge Master for the past grievances!"

"Rest assured, Master's grievances and my own, I will retrieve them one by one from Pojun."

Jian Chen said firmly.

After the instructions were given, Nie Feng walked off the arena, leaving it to Pojun and Jian Chen.

Looking at Jian Chen, Pojun laughed arrogantly:

"Haha, Jian Chen, who gave you the courage?

Have you forgotten the pain once the wound has healed?

Since that is the case, today I will make you like a defeated dog once again, haha."

And Wuming, on the spectator stand, looked at Jian Chen and Pojun, feeling a moment of worry for Jian Chen.

He muttered to himself:

"Chen'er!"

Jian Chen looked up at Wuming, who was slumped in his wheelchair; he did not engage in verbal sparring with Pojun and drew the Hero Sword directly.

Jian Chen now began to recall his own opportunity.

In the process of searching for Wuming, he had encountered two groups of men in black engaged in a fierce battle.

Jian Chen could see that both sides were ruthless and vicious in their attacks; at a glance, he knew they were not of the Righteous Path.

Jian Chen was no longer the greenhorn he had been when he first stepped into the world; knowing to wait and see, he did not intervene but hid in the shadows to observe.

Both sides seemed to be fighting over something, scrambling and snatching at a black box.

The situation reached a fever pitch, with flesh and blood flying everywhere, leaving a scene of utter devastation.

In the end, the other side fought until only three people remained, having slaughtered everyone from the opposing side.

Seeing this situation where both sides had suffered heavy losses, Jian Chen finally revealed himself.

The remaining three men in black stared cautiously at Jian Chen and said:

"Who are you?"

Jian Chen replied:

"The successor of the Hero Sword—Jian Chen!"

Upon hearing Jian Chen's name, the three men turned pale with fright and fled in a panic.

With a few elegant sword strikes, Jian Chen slaughtered all three of them.

Jian Chen walked up to the men in black and took the black box that both sides had fought tooth and nail to possess.

There was an exquisite little lock on the black box, but when Jian Chen pulled on it with force, the lock did not budge at all.

Seeing this, Jian Chen used his Hero Sword to strike the lock with force, and only then was the lock destroyed.

Jian Chen carefully opened the black box; inside were a book and a medicine bottle.

Jian Chen first picked up the book, on which was written "Supreme Profound Sword Classic".

Jian Chen flipped open the Supreme Profound Sword Classic and discovered that this sword manual was incredibly profound and miraculous.

As it happened, the founder of the Supreme Profound Sword Classic and Jian Chen shared the same temperament—both were upright, yet both lacked great wisdom.

At a single glance, Jian Chen understood that this Supreme Profound Sword Classic was very suitable for him.

Jian Chen then turned his gaze toward the medicine bottle.

Three words were written on the medicine bottle: Essence Pill!

Jian Chen could not help but be greatly shocked, for he had once heard of this Essence Pill from Wuming.

Wuming had previously said that the Essence Pill was refined from over a hundred types of high-quality, precious medicinal herbs.

The Essence Pill could grant a person sixty years of cultivation directly, and it would not have the slightest side effects; it was a rare and precious sacred item for cultivation.

Its Spirit Pill Recipe had long been lost to the pugilistic world, so every appearance of an Essence Pill would stir up a bloody storm in the world.

Jian Chen opened the medicine bottle, and inside was indeed a pill with a ruddy luster and a pleasant medicinal fragrance.

"Essence Pill!"

Jian Chen swallowed the Essence Pill in one gulp, then flew to the nearby woods and sat down cross-legged.

Jian Chen felt a surge within his body, and his dantian was constantly expanding and filling up.

After spending one hour to completely digest the Essence Pill, Jian Chen took out the Supreme Profound Sword Classic and began to practice.

It did not take long for Jian Chen to comprehend the Supreme Profound Sword Classic, and after learning it, Jian Chen immediately destroyed the manual.

Having finished his training, Jian Chen had just appeared in the pugilistic world when he was sought out by Wuer; he almost thought that his act of killing to seize the treasure had been exposed.

Upon learning that Wuming had been captured and about the Hero Assembly at Heaven's Gate, Jian Chen knew that his chance to wash away his shame had arrived, which was why he agreed to Wuer's invitation.
