Free Web NovelChapter 1705: Chapter 1702: Star-picking Sword Technique!
Thinking of his own clever scheme, Zhai Xingzi’s gaze toward Li Chen becomes less filled with hatred.
"Li Chen, you are not my match. Considering your notable talent and hard-earned cultivation, I’m offering you a chance to live. Would you be willing to become my disciple?"
At this point, he emphasizes once again.
"Moreover, it would be as my sole disciple, and once I ascend to immortality, the vast Xingyun Hall shall be entrusted to your command. How does that sound?"
Upon hearing the generous offer proposed by Zhai Xingzi, all the spectators are taken aback.
Once they confirm they haven’t misheard, their gazes toward Li Chen become filled with various shades of envy, jealousy, and resentment.
One must know, Zhai Xingzi is the foremost individual in Wuyu.
The Xingyun Hall he presides over is the largest force in Wuyu.
If Li Chen can become his disciple, it’s tantamount to being the future helmsman of Xingyun Hall.
Such an opportunity would certainly make others envious.
Even Snow Princess’s gaze towards Li Chen carries a hint of complex emotions.
Faced with such tempting allure, how many people can resist?
However, to everyone’s astonishment, Li Chen does not accept but sternly refuses.
Li Chen is seen suspended in mid-air, his eyes full of disdain.
"Heh, Zhai Xingzi, not to mention you, even your master Star Cloud Ancestor doesn’t have the qualification to take me as a disciple!"
Zhai Xingzi originally thought that faced with his generous offer, Li Chen, even if not accepting immediately, would at least consider it.
But beyond all expectations, he didn’t even think about it, directly sternly refusing.
Moreover, it’s done in front of everyone’s eyes.
If he doesn’t kill Li Chen now, he might find it difficult to gain a foothold in the entire Wuyu in the future.
Even if he breaks through the Life and Death Shackles and ascends to immortality, a heart demon would remain.
Thinking of this, Zhai Xingzi makes up his mind.
Li Chen must die!
"Li Chen, you have sought your own death, can’t blame me!"
No sooner had the murderous words left Zhai Xingzi’s mouth, a rolling thunder surged forth, sweeping fiercely toward Li Chen.
Seeing this thunder, Li Chen is slightly shocked.
His eyes, bright like stars, also reveal a hint of gravity.
Immediately, he quickly presses his hands together, summoning the Chi Dragon Divine Spear.
The Chi Dragon Divine Spear flashes brilliantly, gathering all of Li Chen’s Spiritual Power, and violently thrusts forth.
"Boom boom boom!"
The condensed, matchless Chi Dragon Divine Spear collides with the rolling thunder, instantly producing an ear-cracking explosion.
Wind, lightning, dark clouds, Sword Light... various terrifying phenomena rise up one after another, giving a sense of an apocalyptic scene.
Witnessing this, in Zhai Xingzi’s sinister eyes, a Sword Light flashes.
The Sword Light pierces through the air, slashing directly onto the Chi Dragon Divine Spear.
"Clang!"
A burst of dazzling sparks ignites fiercely in the sky!
The Chi Dragon Divine Spear, unable to withstand the Star-Picking Sword Light, has its golden flame extinguished as if doused by a basin of cold water, instantly losing its momentum.
Seeing the Chi Dragon Divine Spear repelled by just one Sword Intent from Zhai Xingzi, Li Chen’s expression is slightly surprised.
It appears Zhai Xingzi has also comprehended the Sword Dao Profound Meaning!
Thinking of the Sword Dao Profound Meaning, Li Chen’s somewhat serious eyes instantly become bright again, filled with fervent fighting spirit.
If it were other Divine Weapons, Li Chen might not be a match for this Zhai Xingzi.
But when it comes to competing in Sword Dao, not just Zhai Xingzi, even if his master Star Cloud Ancestor were present, he would have to admit defeat.
With this in mind, Li Chen immediately puts away the Chi Dragon Divine Spear and grips the Seven-star Dragon Abyss with one hand.
Seeing Li Chen abandon the Chi Dragon Divine Spear for the Seven-star Dragon Abyss, Zhai Xingzi is somewhat puzzled.
In terms of quality, the Chi Dragon Divine Spear is far superior to the Seven-star Dragon Abyss.
Moreover, Zhai Xingzi’s Lifebound Divine Weapon is a sword.
Li Chen competing in Sword Dao against him seems like seeking his own demise, right?
"Li Chen, if you can withstand three of my swords, our grievances will be annulled today, how about that?"
Thinking this, Zhai Xingzi condescends, overlooking Li Chen, pretending to be magnanimous.
In his view, if he makes a full-force strike, Li Chen would struggle to withstand even one sword, let alone three.
Li Chen coldly chuckles, responding defiantly, "Forget three swords, I can just as easily take on three hundred!"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s boastful words, Zhai Xingzi is entirely infuriated.
"Arrogant child, you seek death!"
Before the murderous words fully exit, Zhai Xingzi waves his sleeve, scattering countless star lights.
These radiant star lights condense in mid-air into a three-foot-long sword.
Soon, the star lights gather rapidly at the sword tip.
Within just a few breaths, the sword tip already resembles a bright and dazzling star, hanging in the vast void of space.
"Star-picking Sword Technique!"
Accompanied by Zhai Xingzi’s shout, the Sword Intent formed by myriad star lights instantly tears through layers of void, extending towards Li Chen below, like a comet piercing the moon.
Seeing this sword strike, Li Chen realizes Zhai Xingzi has indeed moved to kill.
Yet even so, he feels no fear.
If he had the slightest fear, he wouldn’t have appeared here.
He wouldn’t be recklessly challenging Zhai Xingzi!
"Just in time!"
Li Chen steps forward, instantly channeling the True Yuan within his body through the Big and Small 36 Circuits, gathering it onto the Seven-star Dragon Abyss like rivers flowing to the sea.
With Li Chen’s True Yuan replenishment, the Seven-star Dragon Abyss immediately bursts with dazzling golden light, becoming brilliantly radiant.
Then, Li Chen rapidly forms seals, furiously creating layers of light screens around him.
These screens overlap densely, forming a bizarre void akin to a labyrinth.
The sword light as bright as stars from Zhai Xingzi, upon entering Li Chen’s strange void, disappears without a trace like a stone sinking into the sea.
Even Zhai Xingzi, the connection with this Sword Intent is entirely severed.
Without Zhai Xingzi directing the Sword Intent, though powerful, it is like water without a source or a tree without roots.
With a slight maneuver, Li Chen can exhaust its energy completely.
Seeing such an incredible scene, Zhai Xingzi is utterly shocked.
If his eyes did not deceive him just now, Li Chen should have utilized the power of "Yu".
Using Space Law to isolate space-time.
Though he can also manipulate Space Law, it’s nowhere near as skillful, nor does he leave not a single trace as Li Chen does.
The once assured spectators who thought Li Chen was doomed, upon witnessing this bizarre spectacle, feel astounded, filled with disbelief.
