People were shocked.
The speed of that flying sword was already extremely fast; far beyond what an ordinary Divine Trove cultivator could match up to. But that was just a flying sword after all. If unleashed at full power, such a speed was reasonable too. However, now it was Chen Chao, a human being.
Immortal cultivators and martial artists were both human beings.
How could a martial artist at the Divine Trove Realm be faster than a flying sword fully activated by a Divine Trove Realm immortal cultivator?
This was impossible.
In the understanding of cultivators, this was an absolute impossibility.
Yet such a thing was happening right now.
Chen Chao exerted all his strength to run at full speed, so fast that the flying sword actually could not catch up with him for a moment. His distance from He Yi was never too far. At this moment, He Yi watched Chen Chao running towards him, but he did not have any reaction. All his attention was on that flying sword at this moment and he could not move at all.
If it were before, he could immediately abandon the flying sword and move his body. However, at this moment, he had already put all his attention on that flying sword. Disregarding whether or not he could withdraw his attention at this moment, with the current situation, he would probably suffer with a single misstep.
He was currently in a dilemma.
He Yi stood still and watched the youth in black running towards him. His complexion was pale, and he watched as the distance between them got closer and closer, while the flying sword still could not catch up to Chen Chao.
Li Heng frowned. The young eunuch was already prepared to take action. If He Yi could not stop the flying sword, the result would likely be that he would be pierced by his own flying sword. Such a death, forget about the Great Liang Dynasty, even his own sect probably did not want to see it too.
That was really the most unacceptable result.
100 feet!
50 feet!
30 feet!
Closing in on the final ten feet.
Chen Chao was already prepared to swing his broken saber. As for that flying sword, it was still a few feet away from him.
He Yi’s expression changed slightly and he opened his mouth slightly. A mouthful of blood instantly sprayed from his lips, bursting into a brilliant flower of blood in midair. It just happened to form a barrier between him and Chen Chao. Chen Chao was emotionless as he swung his sword, instantly slashing through the barrier and illuminating the entire square with a clear and bright saber light.
He Yi had already shot backwards.
The flying sword behind Chen Chao instantly lost its power and fell to the ground, its sharpness completely dissipated.
However, before Chen Chao could recover, the remaining flying swords had already arrived behind him.
Chen Chao smiled. The current situation was also within his calculation. If he did not force He Yi to get injured, it would likely have taken him a long time before he could find the trajectory of these flying swords. Now that he had forcibly stopped that one flying sword, he naturally paid a great price too, his mind and spirit getting injured. As a result, his other flying swords would not be as swift as before.
The trajectory would be easier to determine too. Re𝒂𝒂d the latest stories 𝒐n nov𝒆lbin(.)com
Chen Chao turned around and slashed towards a certain spot in the air. A flying sword was struck by him and immediately fell powerlessly to the ground.
Immediately after, the same fate awaited the second flying sword. It was knocked down by a slash and inserted into the stone bricks.
Along with a series of metallic noises, several flying swords afterwards all met with the same fate.
With his broken sword in hand, Chen Chao knocked down the flying swords one by one without any hesitation. Then, he sprinted towards He Yi once again without any hesitation.
The sparring match could be said to have developed extremely fast and had also been very complex up until now. Chen Chao’s countermeasures caught everyone off guard many times. They did not expect him to be able to respond in such a manner, let alone to this extent. It was truly a frightening thing to consider.
Especially the fact that Chen Chao could run faster than the flying swords, it made them feel even more incredulous. How could this be accomplished by human strength?
What kind of a freak was he?!
The biggest difference between an immortal cultivator and a martial artist in the early stages was that immortal cultivators could fly. So in a fight, they could rely on this skill to widen the distance from their opponent as much as possible and use daoist magics to attack. Even if the martial artist had an impressive physique, they would eventually tire themselves out and be defeated by the cultivator’s attacks until they died.
At present, Chen Chao had such incredible speed; even faster than the flying swords. It meant that he had a better chance of winning in combat against immortal cultivators. Although immortal cultivators could fly in the sky, it expended a lot of qi too. If Chen Chao could find the right timing, he might stand a chance.
Just like now.
Before, He Yi did not fly in the air because he had his dao sword to rely on, which had the same effect as flying. However, now that the dao sword technique had been neutralized and he was injured too, even if he wanted to fly in the air, he could no longer do something like that too. To him, he had really fallen into a disadvantage in the present circumstances. If he did not have any other means, he would likely lose to Chen Chao like this.
Looking at the youth in black who stood before him in tattered clothes, a hint of regret appeared on He Yi’s pale face. Although he had the idea of taking the fight seriously from the start, he still hesitated in many areas during the battle, leaving many opportunities for his opponent. On the other hand, Chen Chao seized all of his flaws, making correct choices time after time, then gradually cornered him into such a situation.
He Yi looked at Chen Chao, looking at the boorish martial artist whom he had previously thought nothing of.
“I’ve been cultivating since young, reading countless books on daoist techniques and books. I felt that my mind was also meticulous enough. I shouldn’t have lost to you.”
Although the battle was not yet over, in reality, it was already almost decided. If he wanted to concede, it was justifiable.
Chen Chao said softly, “I haven’t read any books and I also don’t know anything about those daoist techniques and books. I’ve only been killing demons these past few years.”
Yes, in these few years, Chen Chao had been doing the same thing deep in the mountains of Tianqing County for the sake of his martial path future, which was killing demons.
While the daoist magics written in books on daoist techniques were precious and could make one stronger after cultivating them, it was not easy to apply them in practice. In a battle between cultivators, apart from their respective cultivation realms and mastery of daoist magics, experience and their state of mind during combat were actually the most crucial factors.
Years of experience killing demons and countless life-and-death situations had already made Chen Chao’s spirit tough enough. His mental state was sufficiently strong to be able to choose the best solution in the ever-changing battle situation. Even if something unexpected happened, he would not have too much emotional fluctuations.
Among the young cultivators in the foreign lands, there were naturally many characters who could be called geniuses. But when it came to life and death situations, no one could do better than Chen Chao.
Perhaps only the best out of the young generation of the army in the northern frontier could compete with Chen Chao in this regard.
He Yi looked at Chen Chao and remained silent for a long time before saying, “You may be the most talented figure among the young people of the Great Liang Dynasty.”
Chen Chao shook his head and pointed to Xie Nandu who was watching the battle from the side, saying, “I think it’s her!”
He Yi looked at that young girl who had previously met him squarely in an argument at the banquet and was silent for a while before saying, “As the final disciple of the dean, she naturally has extraordinary aspects. But compared to her, I still think you are more remarkable.”
Chen Chao had no famous teachers or anyone backing him up. He had always been considered a barbaric growth. So his current achievements were truly remarkable.
He Yi sighed with admiration as he said, “I have never submitted to anyone in my life, but you are the first.”
Why have foreign cultivators always been so haughty towards the Great Liang Dynasty? Could they be born that way? Actually, it was not. Their indifference and disdain towards the Great Liang Dynasty actually came from this dynasty’s weakness. To the common people, the Great Liang Dynasty was a behemoth. But to these immortal cultivators, it was not. If we were really talking about true powerhouses, there were many in the foreign lands. When talking about young geniuses, the young geniuses of the Great Liang Dynasty were not true geniuses in their eyes either.
They were weak, so they were being insulted.
They were weak, so they were being held in contempt.
In this world, being weak was a crime.
