Chapter 96

Roaring

Amidst the flames that surged and the scorching heat, it was evident that Jiang Chen had reversed the sword, the Red麟 (Lín) slashing through, enveloped in endless flames, surging forward with the roar of the qilin beast, directly heading towards Nameless. The glorious sword intent was vast and majestic like a mountain, surging like a river flowing eastward into the sea, unstoppable.

Clang

A mighty and righteous aura soared to the heavens. Nameless, holding the Hero Sword, wielded an unfathomable and profound sword technique, reaching a realm that ordinary people could hardly fathom. The sword intent was stern and spread layer by layer, forming a curtain of swords, easily blocking Jiang Chen's raging sword flow.

Jiang Chen knew that his opponent's cultivation was unfathomable, but his expression remained calm. With a flip of his hand, the Red麟 (Lín) sword's edge advanced rapidly, each strike reaching the extreme, each one targeting the gaps in Nameless's defense. The sword qi was even more scorching and sharp, surpassing his previous battle with the Southern麟 (Lín) Sword Chief, Duan Shuai.

Nameless remained soft and uncontentious, but as Jiang Chen continued to advance, he had to gradually increase his mental effort. The sword intent and sword qi slowly intensified, reaching a new height. The Hero Sword in his hand emitted boundless true qi, continuously clashing with the Red麟 (Lín).

The young man in white stood quietly to the side, observing this rare sword duel. However, being young and lacking cultivation, he was captivated but also filled with confusion and doubt. After a while, he felt dizzy and could no longer watch.

"Indeed, Senior Nameless lives up to the title of a martial arts legend. This mysterious sword technique is truly unfathomable, and I, Jiang Chen, am in awe." Despite his pride, Jiang Chen could not help but admire Nameless's sword skills, which had reached an extraordinary realm.

Heavenly Sword Nameless, truly deserving of the name.

"Your sword skills are also extraordinary, Young Hero Jiang." In the midst of the intense battle, Nameless had suppressed his initial agitation and responded, his words filled with genuine praise. "With time, once you integrate and master them, you will surely reach even greater heights."

"Is that so? Then I must thank Senior Nameless for your encouragement in advance." As Jiang Chen spoke, the Red麟 (Lín) in his hand became even more fierce and swift. The crimson sword qi scorched the air, spreading in all directions, forming a massive torrent, its power breaking through limits.

Nameless did not dare to be careless, flipping the Hero Sword in his hand, the supreme sword path was activated. Instantly, a fierce sword intent pierced the clouds, a mighty and righteous aura enhanced the sword light, the sword qi surged like a great river, carrying boundless momentum, angrily clashing with the torrent of sword qi unleashed by the Red麟 (Lín).

The greater the pressure, the more potential was unleashed. Facing the unshakable Heavenly Sword Nameless, Jiang Chen was increasingly astonished but also increasingly inspired. His eyes glowed with divine light, his clothes fluttered without wind, and his body rapidly spun, instantly creating ten figures.

In mid-air, ten figures, ten sword pillars, each in different postures and angles, simultaneously slashed from ten directions, the intersecting sword beams enveloping the entire sky.

"Heavenly Destiny Sword Path, dominating the world." With a loud shout, Jiang Chen's body was instantly enveloped in flames, the fierce and powerful force like a sword storm, surrounding and attacking Nameless from all sides.

The overwhelming power of the ten sword techniques, though Jiang Chen was only at the initial stage of cultivation and could not unleash its full power, was still enough to shock. Even Heavenly Sword Nameless did not dare to take it lightly, his mind sinking into the supreme Heavenly Sword realm.

"Mysterious Sword Technique, renowned throughout the world." The supreme sword path fully activated, the strongest move of the Mysterious Sword Technique, a boundless sword momentum surged from Nameless, disrupting the clouds and winds, a perfect portrayal of his sweeping the world and becoming famous in the martial arts world, the pinnacle of his life.

Person to person, sword to sword, the strongest clash, the chaotic sword flow formed a massive wind column, rising from the ground. In the midst of the wind, the clashing of metal was deafening, sparks flew, and the air was swept away. In an instant, the surrounding ten zhang area became a wasteland of ruins.

Suddenly, the rapidly spinning wind column came to an abrupt stop. Following a loud "Clang," the massive wind column exploded, and two figures, each trailing a differently colored sword light, retreated backward.

Nameless, still in his black clothes, the Hero Sword in his hand glowing, continuously emitting a high-pitched, dragon-like roar, appeared extremely excited.

Roaring

The Red麟 (Lín) sword responded with the most intense roar, the crimson blade flickering with flames, a fierce and dominant fire qilin faintly appearing, extremely ferocious.

The sword did not lose, but unfortunately, the person did.

At this moment, Jiang Chen looked slightly disheveled, his black clothes torn in over a dozen places. Although his immortal magic body was not breached, the outcome of the sword duel was clear.

"In recent days, I have sensed that a supreme divine weapon has appeared in Lingyun Cave, without discerning good or evil. I brought my young disciple to investigate. Now it seems that this supreme divine weapon is the one in your hands, Young Hero Jiang. Indeed, it is a fine sword, even though it is newly formed, it is already on par with the Hero Sword." Nameless smiled and said, "This battle can be considered a draw. After all, I did not break through your external cultivation protective divine skill."

"Defeat is defeat, no need to force a draw. I am not someone who cannot accept defeat." Jiang Chen sheathed his sword and coldly said, "However, don't be too happy. The next time we meet, I will challenge you again. Then, I will use my Red麟 (Lín) to reclaim today's defeat."

Nameless smiled and said, "I look forward to that day." As he spoke, he threw the Hero Sword back into the sword sheath held by the young man in white.

Although his master had won the duel, the young man in white was not in good condition. Due to his insufficient cultivation, he had been affected by the sword qi and sword intent during the battle, sustaining considerable mental damage.

"Give this to him to consume." Jiang Chen threw a thumb-sized blood-red fruit through the air, directly toward Nameless.

Catching the fruit, Nameless's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "This is the legendary Blood Bodhi, which can heal injuries and enhance power."

"Indeed, it is the Blood Bodhi." Jiang Chen calmly said, "Given your disciple's cultivation foundation, he can勉强 (mǎng qiáng) benefit from it. This one is enough to heal his injuries and increase his power by ten years."

"Thank you, Young Hero Jiang, for your kindness. I will have my disciple Jian Chen thank you." Concerned about his disciple's well-being, Nameless immediately had Jian Chen consume the Blood Bodhi and helped him refine it to heal his injuries.

Jiang Chen stood quietly to the side, silently cultivating and regulating his breath. In the previous battle, he had been thoroughly defeated. Nameless's sword cultivation had reached another level, far beyond what he could currently match.

After a while, Nameless had helped Jian Chen refine the Blood Bodhi. Jiang Chen opened his eyes and looked at them, saying, "Nameless, I am not a man who breaks his word. Since I have lost this battle, I will tell you that the one who killed your wife was none other than your fellow disciple, Polaris."

"What?" Although he had learned the identity of the murderer of his wife, Nameless was instantly filled with shock and anger upon hearing the name.

Not giving him a chance to question, Jiang Chen immediately laughed and said, "During the battle for the Supreme Sword, he lost to you, his hair turned white, and in his frustration, he killed your wife to vent his anger. Now, he has taken Nie Renwang's wife, Yan Ying, to Japan, reportedly to find your old rival, Absolute God, to exchange Yan Ying for Absolute God's martial arts to use against you. So, you must be careful. Don't die at the hands of Polaris before I can defeat you. Ha ha..."

As he finished speaking, laughter rose, and he leaped into the air, disappearing into the distance on the mountain path, leaving Nameless and Jian Chen standing there in a daze...
