Even though Lin Chen was extrely cautious, he still didn't expect to fall into an ambush!
Though he knew this person's strength wasn't weak, and he might not even be a match, Lin Chen was not soone to shy away from battle. He let out a cold snort, and with a thought, the Tianyan Ancient Sword appeared in his hand. A strand and a half of Sword Intent quietly erged, and he slashed down with a single strike, enveloped in dark golden Sword Qi, swiftly cutting towards that person!
Lin Chen's reaction was impressively swift. From detecting the enemy's ambush to striking instantly, it all happened in a blink of an eye. Lin Chen's golden Sword Qi collided with the opponent's pale white Sword Qi.
"Clang!"
The collision instantly erupted with a crisp sound of tal clashing, and even sparks burst out!
Lin Chen felt a powerful force transmitting through his wrist, forcing him to stagger back uncontrollably until he hit the stone wall of the cave and finally stopped.
Despite being a little disheveled, Lin Chen wasn't injured, and he gauged the opponent's strength accurately.
Moreover, during the lightning-fast exchange, Lin Chen caught a glimpse of that person's bandaged face in the light of the Sword Qi explosion. It seed familiar, prompting him to compare this mysterious person with all those he had t before, one by one.
"Oh!"
The mysterious person let out a soft exclamation, seemingly surprised that Lin Chen could withstand her strike without even a scratch.
Lin Chen halted his thoughts, his expression becoming serious.
From the previous exchange, Lin Chen already understood that the person before him had reached the pinnacle of the first Divine Realm level, and was also a master of sword techniques. She had vaguely touched the threshold of Sword Intent, but hadn't comprehended it like Lin Chen. However, she seed to sense Lin Chen's Sword Intent.
Lin Chen's Sword Intent was one of the reasons he didn't lose outright. With an incredibly solid foundation, pure Divine Origin, and the refined Heavenly Proliferation Swordsmanship combined with a strand and a half of Rapid Sword Intent boosting his Sword Qi, he managed not to fall far behind in this clash against a bona fide Divine Realm expert.
Evidently, the mysterious person hadn't expected Lin Chen to achieve this level with his eighth Divine Scholar rank. But it was only surprising—she wouldn't let Lin Chen discover her secret and leave unscathed just because of his talent!
At this mont, as the glow from the Sword Qi explosion faded, the cave plunged back into darkness, but Lin Chen could clearly feel the mysterious person beginning to mobilize Divine Origin again. Streams of Divine Origin surged forth, appearing on her longsword. From the aura on the longsword, Lin Chen knew that the mysterious person intended to kill!
Lin Chen squinted slightly, not showing panic or fear, but instead revealing a trace of a faint smile.
At this mont, Lin Chen's fighting spirit surged!
It should be understood that as Lin Chen's strength increased, it beca increasingly difficult to find a match in the Divine Scholar realm. There was quite a gap between him and Divine Realm experts, and opportunities to battle such experts were scarce. Recently, Lin Chen felt sowhat bored, lacking worthy opponents.
Previously, when he was still at the seventh Divine Scholar level, he used his near-strongest strength in a thunderous assault to barely defeat Xiao Jie, who had broken through using a pill.
In that battle, Lin Chen felt the long-lost pressure, the kind where failure would an demise!
On that occasion, Lin Chen successfully killed Xiao Jie and felt an imdiate boost in both strength and mindset. Now, that feeling welled up in Lin Chen once again!
The burning fighting spirit in Lin Chen's eyes shone brightly even in the darkness!
Facing the mysterious person gathering Divine Origin not far away, Lin Chen smiled slightly, then abruptly unleashed his aura. Streams of Divine Origin instantly swirled out, transforming into Sword Qi and Divine Origin surrounding the Tianyan Ancient Sword, imposing a terrifying presence!
The mysterious person was also sowhat intimidated by Lin Chen's overwhelming fighting spirit, causing her aura to montarily falter. She quickly regained her composure, however, exerting a dominating aura to suppress Lin Chen.
Imdiately, the mysterious person, unwilling to wait any longer, let out a low shout, and the longsword in her hand emanated a faint blue Sword Qi glow, like a line of water, charging straight towards Lin Chen!
"Hmm?"
As soon as the mysterious person made her move, Lin Chen noticed that her Divine Origin carried a gentle and smooth aura, resembling water, completely different from what Xiao Jie had felt like before.
But now was clearly not the ti to analyze the opponent's Divine Origin attributes. Lin Chen's expression turned solemn, and the Tianyan Ancient Sword in his hand erupted with a thick, dark golden Sword Qi. Under the enhancent of a strand and a half of Sword Intent, it carried a hint of Rapid Sword Intent. Without hesitation, Lin Chen stepped forward and slashed down heavily!
"Heavenly Proliferation: Sword Break!"
Lin Chen's entire body surged with Divine Origin, fully unleashing physical strength. Holding the Tianyan Ancient Sword, he fearlessly faced the overwhelmingly powerful attack, slashing out fiercely!
Then, Lin Chen's longsword struck the faint blue Sword Qi, and he imdiately felt as if he had plunged into a quagmire. Though his body was filled with power, he was afflicted by a suffocating sense of having no way to use it.
The faint blue Sword Qi swiftly withstood Lin Chen's attack, and Lin Chen saw his Sword Qi start to slowly disintegrate!
"Break for !"
Lin Chen roared, and the dark golden Sword Qi on the Tianyan Ancient Sword erupted once more. The dark golden Sword Qi shattered into countless tiny golden Sword Qi, scattering that faint blue Sword Qi completely!
However, Lin Chen was still hit by the explosive shockwave, uncontrollably staggering back a few steps. He looked up to see the mysterious person's eyes filled with shock.
The mysterious person probably couldn't have imagined that an eighth Divine Scholar kid from who knows where could continuously withstand her attacks.
But the mysterious person quickly cald down, looking at Lin Chen indifferently. Imdiately, her aura erupted once more!
"Getting ready to use her ultimate technique!"
Lin Chen saw this and composed his slightly tumultuous Divine Origin, watching her with full vigilance. Instantly, all the Divine Origin in his ridians surged to boiling!
