Chapter 215
The first thing Jiang Chen did was to break the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber, take out the Nine Yin Manual and the Wumu Legacy Book inside, and then, relying on his God-Level Forging Art, repair these two weapons.
Although Zhou Zhou Zhiruo and Abbess Miejue had not yet arrived at Snow Moon City,
Jiang Chen obviously would not wait for them to arrive before executing his plan.
Because letting the people of the Great Ming martial arts world believe that the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber were in Snow Moon City did not require Abbess Miejue to come at all; the other party only needed to tell those martial arts people when someone headed to the Mount Emei Sect.
And the reason Jiang Chen asked the two of them to come to Snow Moon City was mainly because he wanted them to challenge the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion to provide him with rewards.
Both were key figures in Heaven-Reliant,
and if there were no accidents, it should at least allow his strength to break through another realm.
If possible,
Jiang Chen was even prepared to have Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo and the others challenge the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion before taking everyone to visit the Great Song Dynasty.
Among the women around him,
although the strength of people like Brother Sikong Brother Sikong Qianluo and Ye Ye Ruoyi was not very high, without exception, they all had special identities.
If they all came to challenge the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion, he might be able to take the opportunity to break through to the Heavenly Immortal realm.
After all, just Yao Yao Yue, Dongfang Bubai, and Li Li Hanyi alone, if his luck was good, would be enough to let him break through several realms in a row.
Thinking of this,
Jiang Chen couldn't help but think of Sang Sang again.
Although Sang Sang currently had not a shred of strength, her identity was truly too special.
If Sang Sang came to challenge the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion, and the system provided him with rewards according to the identity of Haotian, then Jiang Chen even suspected whether Sang Sang alone would be enough to let him break through to the Heavenly Immortal realm.
However,
if that were really the case,
then Jiang Chen would inevitably have to re-evaluate her specific strength.
If it could let him break through directly from the second level of the Divine Immortal realm to the Heavenly Immortal realm, then just at the lowest level of the first level of the Heavenly Immortal realm, Haotian's strength would be at least above the Heavenly Immortal realm.
Looking at the complete version of the Nine Yin Manual in his hand, Jiang Chen compared it with the Nine Yin Manual he had copied from the stone wall of the Ancient Tomb and found that it was indeed exactly the same.
It was just that,
the Nine Yin Manual in the Heaven-Reliant Sword also contained numerous moves for breaking the martial arts of various sects.
Whether it was Shaolin, the Quanzhen Sect, or forces like Taohuadao and the White Camel Villa, even the martial arts of some third or fourth-rate forces were recorded in this Nine Yin Manual with corresponding methods to break them.
No wonder both the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Ming Dynasty were flocking to this Nine Yin Manual, trying every possible method to obtain it.
Jiang Chen felt that,
as long as the person cultivating the Nine Yin Manual reached the Great Free and Unfettered Realm, even if it was only the early stage of the Great Free and Unfettered Realm, then in the absence of the Divine Wandering Mysterious Realm, it was very likely they would be invincible in the world.
Of course,
this invincibility was only within the scope of the Great Song and Great Ming.
If the other party came to the Northern Li Dynasty, he estimated that any one of the Five Great Sword Immortals could teach them a lesson.
Following that,
Jiang Chen directly summoned several Snow Moon City disciples and had them pick a stone about the height of a person from the inner city and place it in front of the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion.
Then,
he directly inserted the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber he held into the stone.
And the commotion here,
naturally attracted the eyes of countless people in Ordinary City.
With Jiang Chen guarding the ninth floor of the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion, especially after his terrifying strength became known to everyone, the number of people coming to challenge the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion every day had gradually begun to decrease.
Even if someone challenged the pavilion, they chose the form of answering questions.
But even so,
as long as there was any movement at the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion, it would still attract everyone's attention.
"Isn't that Young Master Jiang? What is he doing?"
"Could it be that there's going to be a new way to challenge the pavilion?"
Looking at the blade and sword deeply inserted into the stone, someone's eyes lit up.
Although it had been many days since anyone had been able to join Snow Moon City, it had never dampened the enthusiasm of these people who wanted to join.
Now seeing Jiang Chen's actions,
many people were expectantly thinking about whether Snow Moon City had also discovered the awkward situation of not being able to recruit disciples because the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion was difficult to challenge.
Some even thought,
even if they couldn't become official disciples of Snow Moon City, becoming a handyman wouldn't be bad either.
After all, with the current strength of Snow Moon City,
if they could join, then at the very least, they would no longer have to worry about their safety.
Nowadays, the Northern Li martial arts world was becoming more and more chaotic; even powerhouses like the Hidden River's Patriarch Su Changhe and the Angry Sword Immortal could just pass away like that.
And,
Snow Moon City just opened a gambling house, and those forces in the martial arts world, regardless of whether they received an invitation or not, as long as they had no enmity with Snow Moon City, almost all came to show their support.
In these two days,
they had seen nearly twenty people of elder rank or higher from various martial arts forces in the gambling house alone.
Many people understood,
these forces were all here to hug a big thigh.
After all, with the current turmoil in the Northern Li martial arts world, if it were just because of ordinary matters, or even supreme martial arts, it would be fine; at least if one chose to stay out of it, no one would look for trouble.
But everyone knew,
the reason for all this was because Emperor Mingde was preparing to establish a crown prince!
In this situation,
no martial arts force could guarantee that they would not be dragged into it.
Just like if one of a certain prince's subordinates suddenly ran over and said to support so-and-so prince, then would you support them or not?
If you supported them,
unless you were a force like the Lei family of Snow Moon City,
otherwise,
even if you supported them, you would mostly just act as cannon fodder.
And if you didn't support them,
if you were lucky, the other party might not have time to deal with you for the moment, but that was only for the moment; once the crown prince was decided, there would be plenty of time to settle accounts later.
If you were unlucky,
maybe you wouldn't even have to wait until the next day,
and the news that your sect had been wiped out by people from the Demonic Cult would spread throughout the martial arts world.
If sect forces were like this, then it went without saying for those who were unaffiliated.
Unless you found a hidden place to hide, or even simply left the Northern Li Dynasty, and returned after everything calmed down.
Otherwise,
a sect at least had room to choose,
but those without a background would really be at the mercy of fate.
Whichever prince's people encountered you, they might kill you as an enemy, and when that happened, you would have died for nothing.
Watching the people gradually coming to watch,
Jiang Chen smiled slightly and didn't say anything, but took out a few sheets of paper and had the Snow Moon City disciples post them on the bulletin board and the city wall at the city gate respectively.
What he had to do now,
was to let the people from the Great Song and Great Ming in Snow Moon City know that whether it was the Nine Yin Manual, or the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber, they were right here in Snow Moon City.
And the way to obtain them was also very simple: challenge the ninth floor of the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion.
After finishing all this,
Jiang Chen turned and walked into the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion.
Just like that,
about half an hour later,
inside the Donggui Tavern,
End of Chapter
