Chapter 375

~8 min read 1,485 words

The first thing Jiang Chen did was to break the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber, take out the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra and the Wu Mu Legacy Book inside, and then use his God-Level Forging Technique to repair these two weapons.

Although Zhou Zhiruo and Abbess Miejue had not yet arrived in Xueyue City.

But Jiang Chen obviously would not wait for them to come before executing his plan.

Because making people in the Great Ming Jianghu believe that the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber were in Xueyue City did not require Abbess Miejue to come at all; the other party only needed to tell those Jianghu people when someone went to the Emei Sect.

And the reason Jiang Chen let the two of them come to Xueyue City was mainly to let them challenge the Ascension Pavilion to provide him with rewards.

Both were key figures in Heaven-Reliant,

and if there were no accidents, they could at least let his strength break through another realm.

If possible,

Jiang Chen even prepared to let Brother Sikong Qianluo and the others all challenge the Ascension Pavilion once before taking everyone to the Great Song Dynasty for a visit.

Among the women by his side,

although the strength of people like Brother Sikong Qianluo and Ye Ruoyi was not very high, without exception, they all had special identities.

If they all came to challenge the Ascension Pavilion, he might be able to take the opportunity to break through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

After all, just Yao Yue, Dongfang Bubai, and Li Hanyi alone, if luck were 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 Sangsang again.

Although Sangsang currently didn't have a shred of strength, the other party's identity was simply too special.

If Sangsang came to challenge the Ascension Pavilion, and the system provided him with rewards according to the identity of Haotian, then Jiang Chen even suspected whether Sangsang alone would be enough to let him break through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm.

However,

if this were really the case,

then Jiang Chen would inevitably have to re-evaluate the other party's specific strength.

If it could let him break through directly from the Divine Immortal Second Tier to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, then just the lowest Heavenly Immortal First Tier, then Haotian's strength was at least above the Heavenly Immortal.

Looking at the complete version of the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra in his hand, Jiang Chen compared it with the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra he had copied from the stone wall of the Ancient Tomb and found that it was indeed exactly the same.

It's just that,

the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra 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 White Camel Mountain Villa, even the martial arts of some third or fourth-rate forces were recorded in this Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra with corresponding breaking methods.

No wonder both the Great Song Dynasty and the Great Ming Dynasty were flocking to this Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra, trying every possible method to obtain it.

Jiang Chen felt that,

as long as the person cultivating the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra reached the Great Carefree Realm, even if it were only the early stage of the Great Carefree, then in the absence of the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm, it was very likely to 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, it was estimated that any one of the Five Great Sword Immortals could teach the other party how to behave again.

Following that,

Jiang Chen directly found a few Xueyue City disciples and asked them to pick a stone about the height of a person from the inner city and place it in front of the Ascension Pavilion.

Then,

he directly inserted the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber in his hand into the stone just like that.

And the movement here,

naturally also attracted the eyes of countless people in the Mortal City.

With Jiang Chen guarding the ninth floor of the Ascension Pavilion, especially after Jiang Chen's terrifying strength became known to everyone, the number of people coming to challenge the Ascension Pavilion every day had begun to gradually decrease.

Even if someone challenged the pavilion, they chose the form of answering questions.

But even so,

as long as there was any movement on the side of the Ascension Pavilion, it would still attract everyone's attention.

"Isn't that Young Master Jiang? What is he doing?"

"Could it be that there are more new ways to challenge the pavilion?"

Looking at the sword and saber deeply inserted into the stone, someone's eyes lit up.

Although it had been many days since anyone had been able to join Xueyue City, it had never blocked the enthusiasm of these people who wanted to join Xueyue City.

Now seeing Jiang Chen's actions,

many people were expecting and thinking whether Xueyue City had also discovered the awkward situation of not being able to recruit disciples because the Ascension Pavilion was difficult to challenge.

Some people even thought,

even if they couldn't become official disciples of Xueyue City, it wouldn't be bad to become a handyman.

After all, with the current strength of Xueyue City,

if one could join, then at least one would no longer have to worry about safety.

The Northern Li Jianghu was getting more and more chaotic now; even powerhouses like the Dark River's Head of the Family, Su Changhe, and the Wrath Sword Immortal had fallen just like that.

Moreover,

Xueyue City had only opened a gambling den, and those forces in the Jianghu, regardless of whether they had received an invitation or not, as long as they had no enmity with Xueyue City, almost all came to show their support.

In these two days,

they had seen nearly twenty people above the rank of elder from various Jianghu forces in the gambling den alone.

Many people understood,

these forces were all here to hug a big thigh.

After all, the Northern Li Jianghu was in turmoil now; if it were just because of ordinary matters, or even supreme martial arts, it would be easy to talk about; at least if one withdrew and stayed out of it, no one would look for trouble with oneself.

But everyone knew,

all of this was caused by Emperor Mingde preparing to establish a Crown Prince!

In this situation,

no Jianghu force could guarantee that they would not be dragged into it.

Just like a subordinate of a certain Imperial Prince suddenly running over and saying to support a certain Imperial Prince, then would you support or not support?

If you support,

unless you are a force like the Lei family of Xueyue City.

Otherwise,

even if you support, you would mostly just play the role of cannon fodder.

And if you don't support,

if you are lucky, the other party might not have time to deal with you for the time being, but that is only temporary; after the Crown Prince is decided, there will be plenty of time to settle accounts in the autumn.

If you are unlucky,

maybe you don't even have to wait until the next day,

and the news that your sect has been wiped out by the Mo Sect people will spread in the Jianghu.

If sect forces are like this, then idle people don't even have to be mentioned.

Unless you find a hidden place to hide, or even just leave the Northern Li Dynasty directly and come back after everything calms down.

Otherwise,

a sect at least has room for choice,

and people without a background are really left to fate.

Whoever's people encounter you, they might kill you as an enemy; by then, you would have died in vain.

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 asked the Xueyue City disciples to 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 of the Great Song and Great Ming in Xueyue City know that whether it was the Nine Yin Mysterious Sutra, or the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber, they were right here in Xueyue City.

And the way to obtain them was also very simple, which was to pass the ninth floor of the Ascension Pavilion.

After finishing all this,

Jiang Chen turned around and walked directly into the Ascension Pavilion.

Just like that,

about half an hour later,

inside the East Return Tavern,
