Chapter 1466: 1466
Jiang Chen went into the Sword House after noon . It had been almost the dusk, which meant he had been there for nearly two hours .

The “Eighteen” on the stone wall finally became “Twenty” under numerous expectant gazes .
However, it did not stop there . The number soon changed to twenty-one, twenty-two…
It finally stopped at twenty-five .
The place was so quiet that even if a needle fell on the ground, it would be heard . People’s chests were heaving up and down . It was an exciting scene .
The sky-reaching energy pillar scattered and disappeared after reaching the peak . It was taken back into the Sword House .
The Sword House was giving off a weaker light at the moment . The stone door was being pushed .
When people had realized this was over, the stone door was open slowly with an extremely loud noise .
Jiang Chen appeared in everyone’s sight again .
The consecutive big battles made him look a little bit messy and tired, but his energy still made people hold their breaths involuntarily .
Compared to when he had gone into the Stone House, Jiang Chen had experienced a qualitative change .
“His swordsmanship must have improved a lot!”
Duanmu Rong, First Chair of the Hundred Swords Peak, was very sure about that .
At this moment, the emotion she had had the previous day was gone entirely .
She suddenly felt the potential of Ling Long Celestial Palace was great, only because it had Jiang Chen as its vice leader .
“So many people . ”
Jiang Chen walked out of the Sword House . He did not expect to see so many people there .
Jiang Chen smiled at those awestruck and admiring gazes .
Especially when he saw that Liu Neng was looking at him with genuine admiration, he knew he did not have to say anything .
“Vice leader, could you show us the ultimate-level martial arts technique?”
At this moment, Meng Kong roared, coming forward .

Jiang Chen was struck dumb . He could see this man was different from the other disciples .
His energy alone made him stand out from the crowd . Let alone his appearance .
“Are you one of the current ten elite disciples?” asked Jiang Chen .
“Exactly . My name is Meng Kong . ”
Meng Kong had a complicated feeling . He was reluctant to accept the fact, and he could not believe what had happened .
How Jiang Chen spoke to him made him feel awkward, because they were actually about the same age .
Others had no idea how Meng Kong was feeling, but they were also curious about the ultimate-level sword method and were looking forward to appreciating it .
“All right . ”
Jiang Chen did not let these people down . He said, “But ultimate-level sword methods are not for show-off . ”
People vaguely read something from his words, but they were not sure .
“Elder Duanmu, can we exchange a blow?”
Jiang Chen suddenly threw Duanmu Rong, standing next to him, a sharp look .
Duanmu Rong was the First Chair of the Hundred Swords Peak as well as the elder of Ling Long Celestial Palace . The way Jiang Chen called her was totally okay .
“Me?”
Duanmu Rong was shocked . She had imagined Jiang Chen would have asked Meng Kong or other elite disciples to exchange blows with him .
“It looks…I’m looked down . ”
Duanmu Rong shook her head . She was a Martial Arts Saint . Although she did not have the Sword King title, she was one of the best .
Jiang Chen just would not win in a fight with her .
However, to show people an ultimate-level sword method, it was better indeed to exchange blows with a Martial Arts Saint .
“If the vice leader asks, of course, I have to say yes . ”

Duanmu Rong did not decline . She took a step forward . Her sword created a breeze . And she had been in the air instantly .
“Her sword steps are fantastic . ”
Jiang Chen thought .
Sword step was a physical movement uniquely owned by swordsmen . It kept swordsmen in the lead in battles .
Jiang Chen jumped into the air as well .
“It’s starting for real!”
The disciples of the celestial palace were surprised that Jiang Chen had challenged Duanmu Rong .
They were also surprised that Duanmu Rong had agreed .
However, they did not think Jiang Chen could defeat Duanmu Rong .
They were only wondering whether the ultimate-level sword method Jiang Chen had mastered could affect Duanmu Rong .
“As long as she wants, Miss First Chair can just crack his ultimate-level sword method with brutal force . ”
“If she does that, it means she can’t handle the ultimate-level sword method . It’s unethical for a swordsman . ”
“Miss First Chair almost won the Sword King title . Her swordsmanship is brilliant . And she is a Martial Arts Saint, too . The odds are against the vice leader . ”
“That being said, we’ll see how great an ultimate-level sword method is more clearly . ”
Jiang Chen and Duanmu Rong flew to a high altitude while people were expecting the fight .
Tactical formations protected all of the nine peaks, so they would not be affected easily .
However, tactical formations would consume energies to offset the influences . They would like to inflict as few damages or energy consumptions as possible .
“Mr . Vice Leader, please start your show . ”
Duanmu Rong said with a smile . She looked very relaxed .
She could be so confident because there was a considerable gap between their states . If they were both Martial Arts Saints, Jiang Chen’s performance in the Stone House might have made her more serious .

However, Jiang Chen was only a Martial Emperor in the late stage .
No matter how much he had improved in the Sword House, it did not concern his state .
“Elder Duanmu, watch out . ”
Jiang Chen said . He certainly knew this woman was not taking the fight with him seriously .
There was no need to talk anymore . Holding the sword in front of his chest and accumulating forces rapidly, he emitted tremendous sword energy .
“This sword energy?”
Duanmu Rong, as well as the others at the Hundred Swords Peak, sensed that gloomy and freezing sword energy .
The air seemed to be moister .
Hanging loose, Jiang Chen’s long hair was fluttering . He looked serious . The Heavenly Fault Sword kept chiming .
The sword energy around him was like a fog . A great number of ice crystals appeared .
“What?!”
Duanmu Rong lost her cool when she saw this .
So did the other swordsmen there .
The sword energy’s crystallization meant the swordsman had achieved an unparalleled level .
Zhang Tian’s sword energy was once crystallized as well .
“If he becomes Martial Arts Saint, he will be qualified to compete for Sword King! No! Even Sword Emperor!”
Duanmu Rong thought .
Before the appearance of Sovereign Souls, the highest state-level people could achieve was Martial Arts Saint .
For those who had achieved this highest level, they were classified by strength using a system of martial doctrine .
Most of them were swordsmen . They were classified into Sword King and Sword Emperor .
Zhang Tian was called the Sword King of Breeze . It was an amazing achievement for his age .
However, Duanmu Rong, who had been following Zhang Tian’s development closely during these years, had a complicated feeling gazing at the young man in front of her .
“The Frozen Yi Water!”
Jiang Chen threw his sword over decisively as soon as the sword energy achieved the critical point .
The sword momentum was unpredictable and infinitely mysterious . The aqua blue sword soul flew out at high speed .
Duanmu Rong was shocked . In a trance, she had no idea whether she should retreat or dodge .
It was like when average people were facing a tsunami . The only possible reaction is a fright out of instinct . They simply froze there and could not take any actions .
This sword attack was powerful and mysterious .
The disciples of the celestial palace were so petrified that they even forgot to shut their open mouths .
“Across All Directions!”
At the last minute, Duanmu Rong reacted in the most awkward way ever .
She could see through this attack of Jiang Chen’s, but she did not care . Relying on the state force of Martial Arts Saint, she launched a unique attack, intending to crack the mystery by brutal force . She truly believed this would work .
Indeed, as soon as Duanmu Rong launched this attack, even the color of the sky changed . Jiang Chen’s sword momentum was greatly affected .
“Water Retrogrades!”
To her surprise, Jiang Chen had anticipated that . His blade suddenly transformed, and the law of the universe transformed as well .
Duanmu Rong’s sword attack was reversed by his sword momentum . It turned around to attack herself!
“How is it possible?!”
Opening her eyes widely, Duanmu Rong switched on her protecting jar involuntarily .
This was the moment to decide the result of this blow exchange
