Chapter 925

The battle situation changed in an instant without any warning. There were no rules to follow.

Zi Chen used Extreme Speed to dodge the two strikes before retreating. After retreating to a certain extent, his minor injuries recovered.

At this moment, the Perfect Body's recovery speed was displayed vividly.

The scene became a two-on-two. Zi Chen and the Perfect Body's expressions were extremely calm, but the expressions of Sword Sect's Sword Heart and Overlord Body were extremely gloomy.

At that moment, the duo's expressions were gloomy. They felt a deep sense of fear towards Zi Chen. Clearly, the killer's death wasn't a coincidence.

Despite knowing that the killer was hiding in the dark, Zi Chen still clashed with the injured Jin family spirit body. After the collision, Zi Chen lost his center of gravity and retreated. Then, the killer seized the opportunity to unleash a sure-kill strike.

All of this looked extremely normal, but on careful thought, there were many loopholes. When the killer struck, the Dragon Soul Spear in Zi Chen's hand also moved. However, it was an instant later than the killer. The two of them guessed that Zi Chen had deliberately been late.

He had long sensed the killer's location and deliberately lured him in. After the killer attacked, Zi Chen had already thought of his thoughts and choices.

The situation in front of him was extremely disadvantageous for Zi Chen. If he wanted to quickly turn the situation around, he had to kill one person first. Zi Chen chose the fastest and most effective way to trade his life for his life. Of course, this was also a gamble. If the killer was ruthless and traded his life for Zi Chen's, then Zi Chen would definitely die.

However, the truth was that the killer wouldn't sacrifice his life for two outsiders. He wouldn't sacrifice his own interests to help them.

"Two-on-two. Which one do you choose?" Zi Chen asked as he looked coldly at the two people in front of him.

"I'm a Perfect Body. I'm from the Body Cultivation lineage. It's better to fight the Overlord Body," the Perfect Body said.

"Alright, I'll fight the one with the Heart of the Sword."

The two of them quickly found their target. Sword Heart sneered when he heard that. "Even if it's a one-on-one, you have the confidence to kill me."

Zi Chen shook his head and said, "No, but you will definitely die."

Jianxin laughed heartily. "What a good 'certain death'. Your will is strong enough. If you join my Sword Sect, you will definitely be able to cultivate a Sword Heart."

Zi Chen looked at Kenshin and said coldly, "Your Kenshin disgusts me."

Since they were not on the same page, a fierce battle ensued.

For the Heavenly Tomes, no one would back down. Hence, this battle was destined to be a battle of life and death.

The Perfect Body collided with the Overlord Body, triggering a tremendous force that caused space to constantly distort. Explosions sounded like thunder in the sky as the two of them fought in midair. As they fought, they retreated into the distance to fight to the death.

With a clanging sound, the longsword on Jianxin's back was unsheathed. The longsword was exceptionally sharp and emitted a cold light. The tip of the sword was pointed directly at Zi Chen.

Zi Chen held the Dragon Soul Spear tightly in his hands. The originally silver body of the spear was now emitting a golden light. However, within this golden light, there was also a silver light flashing. This silver light was not the light of the Dragon Soul Spear, but the power of the Extreme Yin Thunder Yuan.

"As the Sword Sect's Jianxin, I'm at the Human Origin realm and can mobilize the sword intent of heaven and earth. If I can't even kill a mere Origin Core realm cultivator like you, I'm really not worthy of being the future leader of the Sword Sect!"

Jianxin said coldly. As his voice fell, the sword in his hand seemed to sense Jianxin's emotions and shone even more brightly.

A crisp sword hum sounded from the sword. This sword actually had a spirit.

The surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth also surged crazily at this moment. Vaguely, Zi Chen seemed to hear a sword hum coming from all directions. There were swords everywhere. The swirling spiritual energy of heaven and earth caused Zi Chen's black robe to flutter. The cold sword intent scraped Zi Chen's cheeks painfully.

Zi Chen's expression was unprecedentedly solemn.

Jianxin was like a spirit body, extremely difficult to kill. Although Zi Chen had successfully killed two of them, there was more calculation involved than actual strength. At this moment, he was facing Jianxin head-on, relying on strength and combat power. Calculation was useless.

The pressure on Zi Chen grew. It seemed that at this moment, swords appeared from all directions and were all aimed at him. In the next moment, ten thousand swords would pierce through his heart.

Zi Chen held the Dragon Soul Spear tighter in his hand. His pupils shrank slightly, and the aura around him gradually rose.

Perfect Yuan Energy began to surge. Zi Chen resisted Jianxin's pressure. His eyes were unyielding, unwilling, and filled with killing intent. At this moment, the Dragon Soul Spear in Zi Chen's hand seemed to sense Zi Chen's emotional fluctuations. A loud dragon hum sounded from it.

After the dragon hum sounded, the Dragon Soul Spear in Zi Chen's hand glowed with a silver light. The golden light could not suppress the silver light. The Dragon Soul Spear's silver light was dazzling, and an extremely terrifying aura surged on it. This aura faced off against Jianxin's sword.

The Dragon Soul Spear in Zi Chen's hand also had a spirit and soul.

Looking at the spear in Zi Chen's hand, a hint of surprise flashed across Jianxin's eyes. However, this change in his expression disappeared in a flash. In the next moment, he raised his sword high.

On the sword, light surged. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth frantically surged and gathered towards the sword. The sword was like a general. With a command, it was summoning its subordinates. It was also like a huge whirlpool that was swallowing the spiritual energy.

In the blink of an eye, the aura surging on the sword reached a peak. Then, Jianxin swung his sword down.

With this slash, a sword hum resounded through the sky.

With this slash, heaven and earth lost their color, and the wind and clouds moved.

This slash carried with it the absolute sword will of the Sword Sect.

The violent aura caused Zi Chen's expression to change. When the sword light fell, it reflected Zi Chen's pale face. However, in the face of this terrifying attack, his fighting spirit was still high. He activated the perfect origin energy in Abdomen and poured it into the Dragon Soul Spear. Then, from the inside of the Dragon Soul Spear, a terrifying aura emerged.

"Sky Breaking Spear Art."

Amidst the explosive roar, the dazzling spear light streaked across the sky. With a loud dragon hum, it was like a silver divine dragon that went straight for the sword light.

The sword light and the dragon-shaped spear light collided in the air. The sound was like thousands of thunderbolts exploding at the same time. Just as the two energies collided, Zi Chen and Jianxin also rushed towards each other with the weapons in their hands that contained souls.

Both of their eyes were surging with killing intent.

"Clang."

A sonorous sound rang out. The two weapons collided, and sparks flew everywhere.

"Clang."

Another blow. The terrifying energy surged, and the distorted space showed signs of being torn apart.

"Clang." "Clang."

More blows were exchanged. The energy around the two of them had turned into a storm. At this moment, the two of them were in the eye of the storm. The storm around them was formed because of the two of them.

During this exchange, blood gradually flowed from the corner of Zi Chen's mouth, and the expression on his face gradually became crazed. Jianxin, on the other hand, had a sneer on his face, and his attacks became fiercer.

"Boom."

Finally, after countless exchanges, there was an explosion at the place where the two of them were fiercely fighting. The destructive storm had reached its limit and was truly destroyed.

A figure flew out of the destructive storm in a sorry state. As he flew out, golden blood spurted from his mouth.

After that, another figure floated out. It was Jianxin of the Sword Sect.

Jianxin thought that his posture when he appeared was very elegant. Little did he know that there were many small holes on his robe, and many of them were stained with blood. Three inches away from his heart, there was an even larger bloody hole, and fresh blood was flowing out.

Jianxin ignored his own injuries and swept his eyes over Zi Chen in the distance. He said coldly, "The gap between our realms cannot be made up. Today, you must die."

Zi Chen slowly stood up. His eyes were as bright as Xing Chen's. There were more sword wounds on his body, and he looked even more miserable than Jianxin.

He looked at Jianxin, pausing between each word, and said in an extremely serious tone, "The. Dead. Is. You."

After saying this, Zi Chen swallowed several drops of high-grade liquefied yuan to recover his energy.

Jianxin, however, laughed and said disdainfully, "It's useless to be so eloquent."

As he laughed, the surrounding spiritual qi of heaven and earth once again gathered towards Jianxin. Jianxin's consumption was quickly recovered, even faster than Zi Chen.

As soon as he recovered, Jianxin rushed towards Zi Chen. The sword hummed again, and Zi Chen blocked with his spear. The dragon's roar also resounded in the sky.

This was destined to be a fierce battle. It was also the most difficult life and death battle Zi Chen had faced since his debut. It was even more difficult than when he fought Huo Yan. After all, Huo Yan was at the same realm as Zi Chen, but Jianxin was now one realm higher than Zi Chen.

This was a huge realm, and there was an insurmountable gap.

The only thing Zi Chen could rely on was his perfect elemental energy and perfect strength, as well as his half-baked perfect spiritual sense. As for other aspects, such as battle techniques and comprehension of techniques, Zi Chen was inferior to Jianxin, and not just by a little bit.

The two fought fiercely, using powerful techniques to attack, but Zi Chen was defeated time and time again. He coughed up blood and was sent flying.

Zi Chen was perfectly suppressed.

Jianxin's face was filled with pride, and his confidence in winning grew. His attacks were stronger, and his sword will was more frightening.

Puff! Puff!

Sword light flashed, and two bloody holes appeared on Zi Chen's body. During this time, Zi Chen's attack had not been launched.

This huge difference made Zi Chen's expression change, but Jianxin laughed proudly. "Haha, Zi Chen, I have to thank you. You actually allowed my swordsmanship to improve."

Zi Chen was relieved. So he had broken through. No wonder his speed was so fast.

"In order to thank you, I want to repay you."

As soon as Jianxin finished speaking, he displayed a set of sword techniques. Zi Chen only felt a pain in his chest. When he looked down, he saw that the clothes on his chest had been cut to pieces, and there was a bloody "thank you" character on his chest.

Jianxin laughed proudly. "How is it? My 'thank you' character is not bad, right?"

Zi Chen nodded. "It is not bad."

After that, Zi Chen made his move. He displayed all kinds of techniques, but he lacked comprehension and time. Zi Chen's attacks could no longer keep up with Jianxin's. The wounds on his body increased, and his injuries became more and more serious.

Techniques were completely useless. Once Zi Chen used a technique, it would only make him die faster.

Thus, Zi Chen decided to give up on techniques.

Puff! Puff!

Two more bloody holes appeared on his body, but he did not dodge or use any techniques. He did not even frown as he sent a spear towards Jianxin's chest.

Jianxin used his long sword to block. Sparks flew, and Jianxin's robe was cut open, leaving a shallow wound on his skin.

Jianxin's eyes flashed with surprise after being injured by Zi Chen, but it quickly turned cold. After blocking Zi Chen's attack, he did not wait for the sword to retract and attacked again. Two more bloody holes appeared on Zi Chen's body, but Zi Chen did not dodge. He stabbed his spear towards Jianxin's chest again.
