Martial Arts are Too Involuted, and If You are Not Careful, You Can Quickly Pass the High Martial Arts

245: Gu Chunqiu was captured, ninth level of the world realm!At the Sword Fiend Space passage.

Gu Chunqiu sat quietly here, with extremely terrifying Sword Qi swirling around him.

As the Master of Sword Refining Valley,

Gu Chunqiu’s Sword Dao attainments might not compare to Li Chengfeng’s or Gao Wuming’s, but his Sword Intent Domain had also reached the terrifying Peak of the Sixth-Order.

Furthermore, Gu Chunqiu’s cultivation had reached the terrifying seventh level of the World Realm.

He could even fight to a draw against an Eighth-Level World Realm Expert.

Under these circumstances, even if the Beast King in the Sword Fiend Space already had Late Stage World Realm cultivation, Gu Chunqiu could still suppress him.

In fact, for so many years, the Sword Fiend Space had never experienced a single disturbance.

This was Gu Chunqiu’s strength.

However, at this moment, Gu Chunqiu suddenly opened his eyes, and a look of horror appeared in them.

“This power... a Beast Emperor Expert!!!”

Gu Chunqiu exclaimed.

Immediately after, an extremely scorching energy suddenly descended from the deepest part of the Sword Fiend Space, directly to the Sword Fiend Space passage, with lightning speed.

The speed was so fast that even Gu Chunqiu, who was at the seventh level of the World Realm, didn’t react in time.

The scorching energy transformed into streaks of red ropes, instantly coiling around Gu Chunqiu’s body, rendering him utterly powerless to resist.

He was bound by these red energy ropes and then dragged into the Sword Fiend Space.

The Magma Beast Emperor’s gaze fell upon Gu Chunqiu, his eyes filled with cruelty.

“Beast Emperor!”

Gu Chunqiu looked at the Magma Beast Emperor before him, his expression involuntarily trembling slightly.

One must know that only Experts below the Beast Emperor level could enter the Ninth-Level Alien Space.

Otherwise, if one’s cultivation exceeded the Ninth-Order, or was still in the World Realm, it would easily cause spatial turbulence. If a spatial rift were to form, even existences as powerful as the Great Xia Pillar of the Nation and Beast Emperors could perish within it.

But now... the Magma Beast Emperor, a Beast Emperor Expert, had appeared in the Sword Fiend Space.

How could Gu Chunqiu not be shocked?

However... in just a few breaths, Gu Chunqiu understood why the Magma Beast Emperor had appeared in the Sword Fiend Space.

A smile spread across Gu Chunqiu’s face as he looked at the Magma Beast Emperor.

“It seems... your Ferocious Beast Faction really got the wrong target!”

“Only your Ferocious Beast Faction could think of ambushing Ye Chen in the Sword Fiend Space. Do you really take our Great Xia Martial Artists for fools?”

Even though he was bound by the Magma Beast Emperor, Gu Chunqiu’s face still held a strong look of derision.

It was this look of derision that made the already irritable Magma Beast Emperor even more displeased at this moment.

“Hmph!”

The Magma Beast Emperor let out a cold snort, and terrifying energy fluctuations surged from his body, carrying an extremely formidable energy that caused the temperature in this area to suddenly rise, unleashing waves of scorching heat.

“I refuse to believe... that you Great Xia people can just watch a seventh-level World Realm Martial Artist like you die in the Sword Fiend Space!”

The Magma Beast Emperor’s voice was incredibly deep, tinged with a sinister quality, as it reached Gu Chunqiu’s ears.

Upon hearing the Magma Beast Emperor’s words, Gu Chunqiu’s expression suddenly changed, clearly understanding the Magma Beast Emperor’s intentions.

“You dare?!”

Gu Chunqiu roared, attempting to activate the cultivation within his body, but facing an existence at the Beast Emperor level, even with his cultivation capable of contending with an Eighth-Level World Realm, he was powerless.

He could only glare at the Magma Beast Emperor, but could do nothing.

“Since Ye Chen won’t come to the Sword Fiend Space, then I will... force him to!”

“Don’t you Great Xia Human Race value what you call ’bonds’ the most? As Kong Xian’s Junior Brother, and Li Chengfeng’s Junior Martial Uncle, I imagine... Ye Chen wouldn’t just stand by and watch you die in the Sword Fiend Space, would he?!”

A smirk played on the Magma Beast Emperor’s lips as he looked at Gu Chunqiu, especially as Gu Chunqiu’s expression grew increasingly ferocious. The Magma Beast Emperor felt that the gloom in his heart was also dispelled considerably with Gu Chunqiu’s struggle.

With a wave of his hand, Gu Chunqiu was already suppressed by the Magma Beast Emperor in the deepest part of the Sword Fiend Space.

Subsequently, the Magma Beast Emperor looked at the Sword Dragon Beast King beside him and said indifferently.

“Notify the Scarlet Church people and have them spread the news from here!”

“Make sure Ye Chen... personally enters the Sword Fiend Space!”

After speaking, without even glancing at the respectful Sword Dragon Beast King, the Magma Beast Emperor flew towards the deepest part of the Sword Fiend Space without looking back... In the Star River Academy, within the small courtyard.

Ye Chen lay on a rattan chair, his gaze fixed on the Void Realm.

In the Void Realm, a System panel, visible only to Ye Chen himself, appeared.

[name: Ye Chen]

[cultivation: World Martial Artist (86/100)]

[White Tiger Destruction Method: Minor Achievement (15/100)]

[Star Shift: Minor Achievement (15/100)]

[Imperial Authority Sword Art: Minor Achievement (15/100)]

[Great Freedom Sword Art: Entry (88/100)]

[Sword Intent Domain: Ninth-Order (97/100)]

“I’m at the Ninth-Level World Realm now!”

“My Sword Intent Domain is also almost at the Peak of the Ninth-Order. After that... it will be the Martial Dao Realm mastered by the Pillar of the Nation!”

“Once I reach that step, even if I face a Beast Emperor Expert, I won’t have any reservations.”

“Even if I can’t kill a Beast Emperor Expert, it won’t be easy for him to kill me!”

“Soon!”

Ye Chen looked at the System panel, his eyes narrowing slightly as he spoke softly.

Currently, Ye Chen was already incredibly close to Kong Xian in his Peak period.

In his Peak period, Kong Xian had not only cultivated his Ninth-Order Sword Intent Domain to its limit, but his cultivation had also reached the Peak of the World Realm.

It could be said that at that time, Kong Xian was truly only one step away from becoming the Great Xia Sword Dao Pillar of the Nation.

In addition, Kong Xian had cultivated the Great Freedom Sword Art to at least the Minor Achievement Realm; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to exchange his Ninth-Order cultivation for a Beast Emperor Expert back then.

He even killed many Beast Kings and severely injured several Beast Emperor Experts.

Now, Ye Chen was very close to the Kong Xian of that time.

“According to this situation, I only need to devour one more space stone shard from a Ninth-Level Alien Space to raise my cultivation to the Peak of the World Realm, and even... raise my Sword Intent Domain to its limit!”

“To reach the level of Senior Kong Xian, but... there must be methods of the Ferocious Beast Faction within the Sword Fiend Space now, so I can’t enter rashly!”

Ye Chen said, feeling a bit helpless.

“Without the power of space stone shards, if I want to improve, relying solely on resources and automatic cultivation, it would still take at least half a year to reach Senior Kong Xian’s level!”

In fact, being able to reach Kong Xian’s level in half a year was already an astonishing achievement in the entire Great Xia.

After all, cultivation becomes incredibly difficult after reaching the Ninth-Order. Among the many Ninth-Order Experts in Great Xia, almost none could compare to Kong Xian.

Many Ninth-Order Experts, after breaking through to the Ninth-Order, found it even more difficult to improve.

Take Yang Tianxing, for example.

As the Vice Alliance Leader, Yang Tianxing’s talent and strength were also terrifying; in fact, Yang Tianxing was from the same era as Kong Xian.

However, it took Yang Tianxing nearly several decades to go from newly entering the Ninth-Order to his current Peak Ninth-Order cultivation.

And this speed was already considered among the best of Great Xia’s Ninth-Order Experts.

And Ye Chen only needed to wait half a year to reach Kong Xian’s level, which was something everyone in Great Xia dreamed of.

It was just that, currently, Ye Chen didn’t have much time left.

The Ferocious Beast Faction’s final invasion was already being prepared, and no one knew when the Ferocious Beast Faction would launch its final invasion.

It could be ten days to half a month, it could be half a year, it could be a year.

It could even... be the very next second.

Once the Ferocious Beast Faction initiated its final invasion mode, what awaited Great Xia would be a fierce war.

With Great Xia’s current foundation, it would be absolutely impossible to last half a year against the Ferocious Beast Faction’s final invasion.

When the battle erupted, let alone Ye Chen’s Ninth-Order cultivation, even the Great Xia Pillar of the Nation couldn’t influence the war’s direction much.

Unless Ye Chen could become a Sword Dao Pillar of the Nation, supplementing Great Xia’s top combat power, perhaps Great Xia could last longer.

And to truly have decisive capabilities in this war, one would need to possess combat power that was considered outstanding among all Pillars of the Nation and even Beast Emperors.

And Ye Chen was still very far from that step.

“Time waits for no one!”

Ye Chen fiddled with the Xuan Ring in his hand. Although Great Xia and Star River Academy had provided many resources for Ye Chen to Cultivate, for Ye Chen’s current Realm, it was merely a drop in the bucket.

Just as Ye Chen was sighing, Li Chengfeng’s figure hurriedly walked in.

Seeing the hurried Li Chengfeng, Ye Chen’s brow involuntarily raised slightly.

“It’s Old Li, what’s wrong?”

Ye Chen still maintained his usual carefree demeanor, showing no particular reverence for his Senior.

However, Li Chengfeng had long been accustomed to Ye Chen’s attitude and didn’t say anything, only his expression was incredibly solemn as he spoke to Ye Chen in a deep voice.

“Something happened.”

“Junior Martial Uncle Gu... he was captured by a Beast Emperor!”
