Supreme Sword God

Chapter 232: Chapter 231: Blood of the Fiendish Dragon

”Luo Jiutian’s chosen successor is quite remarkable.”

The Celestial Demon’s remnant soul spoke in the language of the human race, its eyes fixed on Ye Chen, flickering with an icy glow.

Ye Chen had destroyed many Celestial Demon remnants within the Sword Tomb, but this was the first time one had spoken to him.

It seemed.

As the strength of the Celestial Demon’s remnant soul grew, its consciousness became increasingly clear.

The previous Celestial Demon remnants that emerged from the Sword Tomb were like madmen, but this one was entirely different.

Ye Chen also stared at the corporeal form of this Celestial Demon remnant, but he said nothing.

The Celestial Demon’s remnant continued, ”Back then, Luo Jiutian sacrificed his own life, yet he could only seal my soul in fragments. He couldn’t kill me; do you think you can?

Even if you destroy all these scattered fragments of my soul, so what?

My physical body still remains, and therefore, I am eternally indestructible.

If one day you appear within ten thousand miles of my body, my body will sense you. Then, with just the battle awareness preserved within my body, I could effortlessly crush countless ants like you!

So.

Continuing this path is a road to your own destruction!

If you open the Sword Tomb and let my soul depart, I will remember this favor. Once my soul and body are unified and I become invincible in the world, I can appoint you as the Master of the Human Race, allowing you to command billions of humans.”

Ye Chen grinned and said, ”I’m afraid I’m not interested in being the Master of the Human Race; I’m only interested in the power I wield myself.”

”No matter, I can grant you endless power, allowing you to become second only to me in this world!”

Ye Chen slowly lifted the Celestial Mark Sword in his hand and smiled faintly, ”I will strive to obtain the power I desire for myself. As for power granted by others, it will never truly be mine. More importantly, you are no ordinary being, you are a demon, a Celestial Demon!”

”Foolish!” the Celestial Demon’s remnant soul cursed angrily, ”No wonder Luo Jiutian’s legacy, in a mysterious turn, has fallen into your hands. You’re just as foolish as he was!

Opposing me brings you no benefits.

If he had not opposed me back then but instead joined forces with me, this world would already have been ours. Even if he didn’t covet such things, with his talent, he could have long already broken through this world and pursued greater Sword Dao in the Divine Realm.

Because of his foolishness, for the sake of so-called righteousness, he ended up killing himself.

If you don’t want to follow in his footsteps, stop while you can, the opportunity is before you!”

”Foolish?” Ye Chen’s face showed a trace of a smile, ”I don’t know about foolishness, nor can I fully comprehend his sense of righteousness now, but I do understand one thing: some things just have to be done by someone.”

With that.

Gold light flashed beneath Ye Chen’s feet as he charged once more toward the Celestial Demon’s remnant soul.

”Stubborn fool, what can you do to this fragment of my soul!” the Celestial Demon’s remnant soul roared, Demonic Qi rolling. It suddenly reached back with both hands to grab a pair of black demon wings, tearing them off forcefully.

The black demon wings in its hand suddenly transformed into a pair of unique weapons, resembling two black moons.

”Moon Demon Wheel!”

Clutching weapons like two black moons, the Celestial Demon’s remnant soul violently swept them toward Ye Chen.

”Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect!”

Ye Chen shouted loudly, unleashing the Spirit and Martial Unity Sword Technique!

Previously, it was to gain battle experience.

Now, it seemed unnecessary to waste any more time.

Terrifying Sword Qi gathered instantly at the edge of Ye Chen’s sword, transforming into a grand sword over a hundred meters long, and slashed down fiercely.

The Moon Demon Wheels in the grasp of the Celestial Demon’s remnant soul shattered into pieces.

The Celestial Demon’s remnant soul also broke into fragments.

Through the previous battle, Ye Chen had seen through this fragment of the Celestial Demon’s soul with his Martial Arts True Eye, detecting its weaknesses. At this moment, he unleashed his most powerful strike, completing the kill, naturally with no problem.

”This fragment of the Celestial Demon’s soul, though stronger than most Half-Step Transcendents, is still weaker compared to a true First Layer of Transcendence.”

Ye Chen murmured, then added, ”Of course, I’m comparing it to that old woman of the Qin Family. She’s reached the First Layer of Transcendence at a ripe old age, so her talent might not be much. But considering the Qin Family’s heritage, her combat strength is stronger than many Transcendence Realm Martial Artists. Taking everything into account, within the First Layer of Transcendence, she should be considered mid-tier!

That is to say, my current strength should handle the weakest in the Transcendence Realm with no problem.

Facing the mid-tier of the First Layer of Transcendence still poses a slight challenge, but it’s only a matter of time.

As for the genius-level First Layer of Transcendence...”

Ye Chen did not finish the thought.

The variables with talents are too many.

Even Ye Chen now doesn’t dare claim he’s invincible below the Transcendence Realm because with talents, nothing is certain.

Within the Great Zhou Dynasty, Elemental Wheel Realm or Tier Three Spirit Masters with battle strength like his certainly don’t exist, but many genius-level Primordial Embryo Realm Martial Artists and Tier Five Spirit Masters might not be weaker in combat strength.

Take that Qin Zhen for example, with his Peak of Primordial Embryo Realm Cultivation, his combat strength is equivalent to some weak Half-Step Transcendent.

And Qin Zhen ranked only fourth among the top ten talents at the Feiyang Martial Arts Academy.

The Feiyang Martial Arts Academy ranks second in the Great Zhou Dynasty’s academy rankings.

The top position belongs to the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy, whose talents are surely stronger!

Besides the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy, the Great Zhou Dynasty has many families with deep foundations...

Moreover, the Sect Alliance is a formidable power not to be underestimated.

Furthermore, the royal family rules the Great Zhou territories with absolute mastery over top-tier talents!

And looking at it from another angle, the Great Zhou Dynasty is just a small region within the Eastern Domain Cang Province!

So, Ye Chen is well aware of where the fundamental issue lies.

His cultivation realm is what truly matters!

My talent is unrivaled, my aptitude extraordinary, my prosperity abundant, but no matter what, a higher cultivation realm allows these advantages to fully manifest!

With a low cultivation realm.

Talking about invincibility at the same level is just a joke.

Even if you can kill a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand at the Elemental Wheel Realm level, what’s the point?

This world belongs to the top-tier powerhouses!

Soon, Ye Chen suppressed these thoughts, took out a large number of elemental stones from his Storage Ring, placed them around him, then began cultivating using his cultivation technique.

He still awaited news from Luo Qingyi, making it inconvenient to leave the Sword Tomb for now.

Otherwise, going directly to the Pure Origin Secret Realm of the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy or the Spirit Tower for cultivation would yield better results!

......

The tenth floor of the Sword Tomb.

A member of the Dragon Race, appearing as a middle-aged man in a blue shirt, flicked a finger, shattering a strand of vital blood in his hand!

”Uncle Long, what do you think?” Luo Qingyi immediately asked upon seeing this.

The Dragon Race man displayed anger and said, ”Blood of an Abomination Dragon!”

”Uncle Long, are you saying that the substance used to refine the Dragon Blood Pill is the Blood of an Abomination Dragon? Or that Ye Chen’s senior brother Yuan Polu has the bloodline of an Abomination Dragon?”

”The blood used to refine the Dragon Blood Pill is from an Abomination Dragon,” the Dragon Race man said with twinkling eyes, then added, ”Qingyi, tell Ye Chen that if he eradicates the Abomination Dragon, I will reward him richly on behalf of the Dragon Race, and as for his senior brother Yuan Polu, I will bestow upon him a chance!”
