Martial Cultivator Chapter 377: Is a Sword Cultivator Amazing?

Chapter 377: Is a Sword Cultivator Amazing?

As those flying stones sped through the air, they resembled one flying sword after another.

Meanwhile, the young martial artist who was currently ragged and disheveled, resembled a ruthless sword cultivator.

Ironically, at this moment, no matter how resolute Lu Chu’s mind was, he felt somewhat dazed when looking at this scene.

The sheer number of flying stones was overwhelming, each one aimed at him, while he only had one flying sword. How could he possibly deal with them all?

Without time for him to think too much, in the next instant, he had already directed his flying sword toward the nearest flying stone. The stone was swiftly cleaved in half, with the two pieces falling to either side, some even crashing onto the nearby decorative columns of the plaza, breaking a few of them directly.

There were continuous rumbling sounds echoing here, leaving the court officials on the square speechless with shock. Especially the civil officials who had never cultivated before, as they gazed at the young martial artist, the look in their eyes was complex.

While the court officials were all focused on the scene, the Premier subtly turned his head to glance at the Emperor in front of the great hall.

As the top civil official with immense power in court, the Premier was naturally no fool. Today’s commotion, no matter how significant, was merely a matter of face and would not touch the foundation of the Great Liang Dynasty. Therefore, in their view, the outcome of this duel was completely unimportant. What they truly wanted to know was actually the Emperor’s attitude towards Chen Chao.

However, when he looked towards the Emperor, all he could see was a face that seemed to have never changed expression from beginning to end.

The heart of an emperor was indeed inscrutable!

The flying stones kept assaulting Lu Chu incessantly, causing beads of sweat to break out on the young sword cultivator’s forehead. Though each stone was not some powerful technique and was not particularly difficult to deal with individually, their sheer number made it challenging for Lu Chu, even as a sword cultivator.

Chen Chao laughed coldly. This guy had been bullying him with his flying sword before, it was now time to let him have a taste of his own medicine.

After the initial panic, Lu Chu quickly controlled his flying sword to constantly sweep in front of him. Every flying stone that came his way was instantly cleaved by his flying sword, landing on both sides. At this moment, the walls on both sides of the palace were already somewhat damaged, with some large pits appearing on the vermilion walls.

The imperial city was protected by a grand array, but with the Emperor present at today’s grand court session, the grand array was not activated at all.

However, even if one or two palaces were destroyed today, the impact would not be significant. In such a vast Great Liang Dynasty, could they not even find two palaces?

As Lu Chu’s flying sword swept through one after another, the number of flying stones was also rapidly decreasing. Looking as the last piece of jade stone that was the height of a person flew towards Lu Chu, he held his breath, concentrated his energy, mustering up his sword qi to slash over there in the end!

As the flying sword swept past that huge flying stone, it cut it in half. However, the next moment, Lu Chu saw a scene he absolutely did not want to see right in front of him.

A figure was swiftly approaching him behind that flying stone.

It was Chen Chao!

Lu Chu’s expression changed slightly, turning somewhat pale in that instant. The continuous use of his flying sword had greatly depleted his sword qi. At this moment, while there was still enough sword qi in his body to support his sword attacks, it was no longer as swift as before.

Chen Chao instantly arrived in front of Lu Chu. At this moment, even if Lu Chu was still thinking of recalling his flying sword, it was actually too late.

Chen Chao’s heavy fist smashed towards his head. Lu Chu hurriedly dodged, but in the next moment, he was still hit on the forehead by the heavy punch.

In the second bout of close combat, Chen Chao did not give Lu Chu any more chances. As Lu Chu’s figure was knocked back by the punch, he took a big stride forward, directly using his toughest body to collide with this sword cultivator who seemed almost fragile in his eyes!

The sword qi within Lu Chu’s body was directly dispersed by this collision. At this moment, his flying sword was swaying in the distance as if drunk. It probably would not be able to return in a short time.

This time, as Lu Chu was once again knocked back hundreds of feet, he spat out a turbid breath. With no other choice, he put his fingers together to imitate a sword, and a burst of sword qi suddenly bloomed between his fingers. With his fingers curved like a sword, Lu Chu slashed towards Chen Chao. The sharp sword qi drew a white line in the air, just nice brushing past Chen Chao’s cheek.

A wound suddenly appeared.

Chen Chao paid no attention to it. At this moment, he completely dominated the bout. Chen Chao narrowed his eyes to look at Lu Chu and said with a smirk, “Is a sword cultivator impressive?”

As he spoke, he delivered another heavy punch to Lu Chu’s shoulder!

With a crack, he directly shattered the young sword cultivator’s shoulder bone.

Lu Chu let out a muffled groan, enduring the intense pain as he attempted to deliver a sword strike at Chen Chao. However, before his hand that formed a finger-sword could rise up, Chen Chao smacked a palm towards Lu Chu’s head.

When the two maintained a distance, it might have been considered a battle between the same cultivation realm. However, once the distance was completely gone, for Chen Chao, a martial artist who continuously tempered his body, the frail sword cultivator Lu Chu posed no threat whatsoever.

Lu Chu was struck by a palm on the top of his head, instantly feeling a tremendous force rushing in. His face immediately turned an unusual shade of purple-red.

But in the next moment, he stubbornly extended a hand and thrust a sword towards Chen Chao’s abdomen.

Chen Chao made no attempt to dodge. To him, Lu Chu who was now an arrow at the end of its flight posed no threat at all.

His next punch smashed towards this young sword cultivator’s chest!

A trickle of blood instantly spilled from the corner of Lu Chu’s mouth as he was struck by this punch. At this moment, his internal organs were almost on the verge of rupturing.

Daoist Redsky watched the young sword cultivator from his sect face a dangerous situation. At this moment, he was completely disregarding any concerns for propriety or rules, ready to make a move. However, at this moment, he suddenly noticed the Lord Warden Commander standing on the square, he was currently staring at him coldly.

A powerful aura already surrounded him at this moment.

The faint killing intent was also warning him that if he were to act now, what awaited him would likely be a fight to the death with this Lord Warden Commander.

If a powerful martial artist who had reached the pinnacle of Nepenthe were to truly engage him in a life-and-death struggle, Daoist Redsky feared he might not have the ability to defeat the other party.

In his desperation, Daoist Redsky looked to the side at the old cultivator who remained silent the entire time.

The old cultivator knew his own predicament. The reason he had remained silent since appearing was because a powerful aura had emerged beside him, an aura so powerful that he dared not act rashly or even speak. Although he did not know whose aura it was, he could vaguely guess it. Right now, that Great Liang Emperor was likely staring at him.

Thinking about how that individual was a powerful martial artist who could contend with the Demon Emperor from the North without falling in defeat, and even survived under the Temple Master’s hands, the old man dared not provoke him at all.

To make a move now would be to admit guilt, and if he truly angered that Emperor of the Great Liang Dynasty, he feared he would meet his demise. Furthermore, the foreign cultivation world had no reason to come and seek justice for them.

However, looking at the situation, if no one intervened, Lu Chu would be beaten to death by that young martial artist. The old man sighed, lamenting the waste of such a promising sword immortal sapling.

At this moment, the civil officials were mere bystanders, enjoying the show. But the military officials were boiling with excitement. When had the martial artists of our Great Liang Dynasty ever had such a glorious day?

As Chen Chao continued to throw punches, Lu Chu was almost entirely on the defensive. The sword qi within the young sword cultivator had long been dispersed. If he had not been holding on to his last breath, he might have been beaten to death by Chen Chao long ago.

Chen Chao was expressionless. However, just as he was about to throw another punch, he suddenly felt a chill behind him. His hair stood on end, and in an instant, he made a decision. He retracted the punch he was about to throw and instead reached out to one side. Sure enough, a red silk ribbon appeared.

Fairy Red had been keeping an eye on the battlefield. Lu Chu had saved her life before, and now seeing him on the brink of death, she did not hesitate. Without much thought, she immediately moved to intervene.

Chen Chao grabbed the red silk ribbon and shouted angrily, “Get down for Your Father!”

In an instant, Chen Chao’s qi surged throughout his body, then flowed to his arm. With a sudden pull, Fairy Red’s figure became unstable, directly pulled by Chen Chao from a distance to not far in front of him. Having nearly killed Fairy Red before, now that he saw her attempting a sneak attack from behind, Chen Chao was burning with rage. He could not contain himself and directly smashed a punch onto the chest of this Fairy red, who was rather admired by the foreign cultivators.

Struck by Chen Chao’s furious punch to her chest, Fairy Red instantly spat out blood, flying out like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto a shattered pillar in the distance, her life or death uncertain.

Meanwhile, Lu Chu took advantage of Chen Chao’s distraction and attempted to retreat backward. However, before he could retreat far, Chen Chao took a few steps and arrived in front of him, delivering another heavy punch to his chest.

“Want to leave?” “Ask me if I agree!”

Lu Chu was struck solidly by this punch, directly spewing out a large mouthful of blood, falling to the ground and convulsing uncontrollably.

Chen Chao narrowed his eyes, immediately preparing to deliver another punch, intending to send this young sword cultivator to meet King Yama.

Daoist Redsky’s expression changed drastically, no longer caring about anything else, and shouted loudly, “We concede!” Visitt nov𝒆lbin(.)c𝒐/m for the l𝒂test updates

But Chen Chao turned a deaf ear, determined to land this punch!

This punch that accumulated all the strength within his body suddenly smashed toward Lu Chu’s head. However, at that moment, a golden-colored small sword suddenly emerged from Lu Chu’s forehead, swiftly flying towards Chen Chao!

This golden small sword was extremely sharp, instantly piercing through Chen Chao’s fist.

A wave of intense pain struck as the flying sword pierced through Chen Chao’s shoulder, passing through his body.

Chen Chao gritted his teeth as he still aimed this punch towards Lu Chu’s forehead!

However, compared to before, the force behind it had diminished considerably.

With a loud boom, Chen Chao’s punch forcefully drove Lu Chu’s head into the ground, firmly embedding it there.

Only at this moment, did Daoist Redsky swoop down to the square, with the Lord Warden Commander arriving behind Chen Chao too.

Daoist Redsky first glanced at Chen Chao before lifting Lu Chu up and sending a golden pill into the mouth of the young sword cultivator.

Then his powerful qi flowed into Lu Chu’s body. Only after several minutes, did he lift his head to look at Chen Chao.

Chen Chao shook his head with some regret. He knew that Lu Chu had not died yet and had now been rescued by this daoist.

However, Daoist Redsky was still full of anger. Lu Chu’s glabella hid a very precious sword technique from the Purple Cloud Grotto, but now it had been completely destroyed by Chen Chao. This meant that although Lu Chu had not died, his future achievements might never reach the expectations of the Purple Cloud Grotto.

This was as painful as killing Lu Chu.
