Jiang Chen didnât know whether such a sword move would succeed. But, even if it failed, the Wind and Fire Rules, which could go out of control, would cause great destruction and were tantamount to an attack. If Shui Wuchen was now aware of Jiang Chenâs plan, he might end up losing control of himself once again.
When Jiang Chen used the sword move, an earnest expression appeared on his face, and he didnât care any longer about whether it would succeed or fail. As the Sword Spirit tried controlling the Wind and Fire Rules, it gave rise to an intense reaction. A solemn expression appeared on Shui Wuchenâs face. He didnât move back, and he used his whole Spiritual Power and Boundless Mysterious Water.
Bang!
Jiang Chenâs Heavenly Power Sword Move didnât succeed, and the wind and lightning had gone out of control when his opponentâs spear approached him, and they became more chaotic as Shui Wuchenâs attack mixed along with them. In the end, both people were sent flying by a powerful shock wave. They both flew quickly through the air, and a sharp sound echoed out. When they came to a stop, the air around them became scalding due to such intense friction in the air.
Jiang Chen extended his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth, and his fingers were stained by fresh blood. Even though he had a divine body, he still ended up losing blood due to an intense shock. It could be discerned from this how terrifying it was.
On the other side, Shui Wuchen tumbled to the ground, and he ended up smashing into many trees on the way and destroying them, before he created a big pothole on the ground.
When Jiang Chen rushed over there, he witnessed Shui Wuchen trying to prop himself up with his spear, and he managed to stand up only with great difficulty.
âYou have lost,â Jiang Chen said.
Shui Wuchen lowered his head. His long silver hair, which was covered with dirt, covered half of his cheek.
âYou should give up such ludicrous thoughts.â Jiang Chen didnât kill him. After all, according to what he had heard and seen, this guy had helped Ye Xue.
âAs a matter of fact, it doesnât matter whether I want it or not, as both Ye Xueâs heart and body have belonged to you for a long time,â Shui Wuchen said.
âItâs fine as long as you know it.â Jiang Chen chuckled complacently, as if he didnât notice the grief apparent in Shui Wuchenâs tone. Shui Wuchen let out a bitter laugh, and when he was about to continue speaking and utter something else, a miserable cry echoed from a distant place.
When Jiang Chen observed that place carefully, he realized that a group of people was attacking Bing Tian and the others. âItâs the Fire Spirit Clan and Metal Spirit Clan.â Bing Tian quickly came over. He had also suffered their attacks, and blood was flowing out of him. Jiang Chen quickly treated his injuries and looked in the distance. There were around 20 people there, and they all possessed two different types of spiritual power.
âThey have come here to thwart the trial.â Shui Wuchen moved his body forcefully and a bugle-horn appeared in his hand. He put it before his mouth and blew at it. A sonorous bugle horn sound reverberated in the sky, and it could be heard throughout the whole mountain. But, even after a long while had passed, Shui Wuchen didnât see any teams coming.
âWhat is going on?â Shui Wuchen panicked, and he rolled his eyes around and held Jiang Chenâs arm. He spoke excitedly, âThey want to wreck the Sacred Spiritâs master recognition ritual, and the sole way for achieving their aims is...â
âIs it killing all the people who take part in the trial?â Jiang Chen helped him finish his words.
âThat is right, and Ye Xue is among them.â Jiang Chen realized that he would shortly have to take part in another fight.
âThere is a great disparity between our power, and we will only die if we stay here,â Bing Tian, who was next to them, spoke anxiously, âTwelve Spirit Kings and Eight Spirit Emperors have come over.â
âWhat?â Jiang Chen didnât think much of it, while Shui Wuchenâs expression changed drastically once again. A Spirit King was tantamount to the Human Clanâs Martial Emperor, and a Spirit Emperor was tantamount to a Martial Saint. But, the Spirit Emperorâs title covered a great category, and the strongest Spirit Emperor had power on a par with a Martial Saint, while the power of the weakest Spirit Emperors was only on a par with an apex Martial Emperor.
âAre they mortal-grade Spirit Emperors?â Shui Wuchen asked.
âThat is right. At least, the one seen by me was at the mortal-grade.â Bing Tian nodded, and said anxiously, âLetâs quickly leave, and go ask for reinforcements.â
âWhere can you get reinforcements?â Shui Wuchen laughed in mockery, and he left Bing Tian at a loss for words.
âI will go ask people for help, while you help me and hold them up, okay?â Shui Wuchen looked in expectation at the only useful person here.
âWhat do you think I will do?â Jiang Chen asked back with his gaze full of mockery. Did this guy take him for a fool?
Shui Wuchen also realized that it wasnât appropriate to ask Jiang Chen to take such a great risk, and after he pondered it, he took a decision, and put his hand on Jiang Chenâs shoulder. When Jiang Chen was about to fight back, cyan energy flowed into his body. âWhat are you doing? Is it the Boundless Mysterious Water?â Shui Wuchen had unexpectedly poured one of the Four Great Chaos Spirits into Jiang Chenâs body. This wasnât any different than how a possessor of an Alien Flameâs main source could give a part of it to other people, so that they could fight with it. The Boundless Mysterious Waterâs main source was obviously its cultivation method. Shui Wuchen didnât mention this matter and just said, âI need only 15 minutes, and I will manage to come back with people by then.â
âThe Boundless Mysterious Water is useless to me,â Jiang Chen spoke helplessly.
âThis is all I have. Fine, I will leave, and if you donât care that Ye Xue will face danger, you can just leave.â Shui Wuchen, whose body was injured, proceeded in a different direction.
âYou should also leave. This time, donât watch the battle from a distant place,â Jiang Chen said.
âBe careful!â Bing Tian didnât have the right to ask anything of Jiang Chen, and he just followed Shui Wuchen and left.
Jiang Chen consumed an Immortal Elixir, and flew into the sky along with his magical clone. The Fire and Metal Spirit Clans team had already come over, and they were all brimming with killing intent. They were surely anything but kind people!
âGet lost!â
When they witnessed two people with the same appearance, they didnât take them seriously.
âA formation is set here, and if you want to get inside, I can help you.â Jiang Chen tried his best to stall for time.
âDo we need your help? Donât waste our breath. Letâs kill him.â The Fire and Metal Spirit Clansâ leaders spoke before they flew over while emanating an overwhelming aura.
I will give it a try. Jiang Chen got a daring idea, and he released through his fist the Boundless Mysterious Water gotten by him from Shui Wuchen.
âItâs too laughable!â
Jiang Chen wasnât good at such a field, and as he used the Boundless Mysterious Water in such a way that he didnât manage to release even a third of its might. However, Jiang Chen wasnât someone who would make a foolish decision, and the magical clone next to him started using Heavenly God Lightning and imbued it into the Boundless Mysterious Water. The Boundless Mysterious Water was still stimulated by him, and it turned into torrential rain, which fell upon the two Spirit Clanâs teams. A cracking sound could be heard from the water!
âYou should quickly dodge it!â The Fire Spirit Leader shouted loudly and soared high in the sky. The people behind him reacted more slowly than him, and they all ended up hit by the rain. This group of people couldnât disregard Heavenly God Lightning like Shui Wuchen, and they all suffered a grave blow. The 20 Spirit Kings all cut a sorry figure and twisted around in the air like demented people.
âItâs really useful!â After Jiang Chen succeeded, he planned to use the whole Boundless Mysterious Water along with the Heavenly God Lightning.
âWait for a moment!â The Metal Spirit Leader called Jiang Chen.
Since Jiang Chen just wanted to stall for time, he was obviously willing to stop.
âYou are a human, and you donât need to take part in the fights between the Five Great Clans. It will only bring great trouble to you.â
âThat is right, as long as you are willing to make way for us, our Fire Spirit Clan will be grateful to you,â the Fire Spirit Leader said.
Jiang Chen revealed a pensive look, and when those two people looked impatient, he said, âBut, Iâm entrusted with this by some people.â
âDid the people who entrusted such a task to you inform you that you would have to face such a powerful team? The other people donât care about you. So, why do you need to take such a foolish decision?â
The Metal and Fire Spirit Leaders were a man and a woman, and they both coordinated well and spoke one after the other. They wanted to persuade Jiang Chen!
