Liu Qingcheng never imagined that the spoiled Young Sect Leader she once ignored would possess such extraordinary talent and potential.
It had only been about a year since she went to Lingyun Sect to break off the engagent.
When they t again, the boy of old had now beco truly renowned throughout the world.
Now, he even incited such a celestial phenonon within Kunlun, becoming the center of attention.
Ji Chen’s current stature was already making Liu Qingcheng feel sowhat suffocated!
In rely a year, their situations seed to have reversed. The once spoiled one could now be compared to the Saint Heirs of the world, becoming one of the few young kings within the Northern Nether Realm.
Compared to Ji Chen’s growth, Liu Qingcheng realized just how insignificant she had beco in his eyes.
"Buzz......"
As ti passed, by now, the entire Star Sword Peak was already overcrowded, almost leaving no place to stand.
The tremors in the earth also gradually subsided over ti.
The majestic Sword Montum converged, as if extinguished into the void of the four directions.
anwhile, Ji Chen, who was ditating at the front of the Stone Sword, finally awoke.
He slowly exhaled, his eyes flashing with two beams of light, akin to sword rays about to burst out, sharp and intimidating.
At this mont, Ji Chen’s entire deanor seed to undergo a drastic transformation.
Illusory and ethereal, endowed with Law, as if rged with the Great Dao.
"Congratulations, Brother Ji!"
Mo Cheng was the first to respond, stepping forward to offer congratulations with a cupped fist.
Only then did Ji Chen realize that while comprehending the Sword Law, he had unknowingly attracted so many people’s attention.
"Ugh!"
He was about to speak to Mo Cheng, but suddenly felt a dull sensation in his chest, then, right in front of everyone, Ji Chen couldn’t help but cough up a mouthful of blood.
Mo Cheng was startled at the sight, worriedly asking, "Brother Ji, are you alright?"
"It’s nothing."
Ji Chen waved it off, frowning slightly, "The Great Dao injury in my Spiritual Sea seems to have worsened again."
While comprehending the Sword Law was indeed gratifying, the aggravation of the Great Dao injury also brought Ji Chen back to his senses.
Without finding the Dao Heart Fruit, all his improvents seem to be of little significance.
All around, many spectators couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
Today, Ji Chen incited a celestial phenonon and comprehended the Sword Law, a truly astonishing feat.
After all, in today’s Northern Nether Realm, those who truly mastered the Power of Law are very few and far between, a rarity among millions.
"Not only does he possess Nine Spirit Veins, but now he has also comprehended the Sword Law... his talent is simply unparalleled!"
"It’s a pity, the Great Dao injury is irreversible. Even the Night Emperor of old could not survive it. No matter how peerless and matchless you are, in the end, you’re just a speck of dust in the sands of ti."
Many sighed, feeling both awe at Ji Chen’s talent and sympathy for his predicant.
Such an extraordinary prodigy, if not beset by the Great Dao injury, in the future, how many in the world would dare contend with him?
Even a Dao Body that has astonished the ages might pale in comparison to him.
"Buzz..."
A beam of light streaked across the sky, and then a young woman descended upon Star Sword Peak.
Dressed in a blue long dress, her elegance was otherworldly, breathtakingly beautiful, it was none other than Kunlun Saintess Si Ruyan.
"Young Master Ji."
Si Ruyan slightly bowed to greet Ji Chen, as she was well aware of Ji Chen’s experiences in Bicheng.
At this mont, his comprehension of the Sword Law here also left Si Ruyan deeply astonished.
Because even as the Kunlun Saintess, despite countless attempts over the years, she had yet to successfully master this Sword Law.
She clearly knew how challenging it truly was.
"Long ti no see, Fairy, your grace remains the sa." Ji Chen cupped his hands at her.
After a few casual exchanges, Si Ruyan invited him, "The inheritance ceremony is still so ti away. How about the Young Master join for a few drinks on the Holy Peak? The Dao Body and others are already on the Holy Peak."
Ji Chen did not refuse and soon followed her lead, leaving with Mo Cheng.
Kunlun Holy Peak, reputed as the Pillar of Heaven, stands atop the clouds, the highest point of Kunlun, offering a panoramic view of the entire sect.
This is Kunlun’s absolute Sacred Land, typically accessible only to the Saintess and select elite disciples.
Even today, the Holy Peak remained closed to outsiders; without an invitation, ordinary people could not possibly ascend to the Holy Peak.
Soon, led by Si Ruyan, Ji Chen and Mo Cheng arrived on the Holy Peak.
In a beautiful bamboo grove, the three arrived here.
Looking around, they saw many young figures seated in the grove, each with an extraordinary bearing, all true prodigies, none of them were simple characters.
Ji Chen recognized many familiar faces, such as Ye Yunge, Dao Inference Saint Heir, Gu Hao, and Mo Wanqing, all now present here.
"Brother Ji!"
The arrival of the three naturally caught the attention of everyone present.
Gu Hao, Ye Yunge, and several others stood up to greet him, cupping their fists in salute.
Soon, under Si Ruyan’s arrangent, Ji Chen and Mo Cheng each took a seat in an empty spot.
"So this is Ji Chen? I’ve heard your na for a long ti; seeing you today, you truly are extraordinary!"
Those present had notable backgrounds, whether elite scions from great families or top geniuses from Sacred Lands, numbering nearly twenty, gathered here.
Aside from a few people like the Dao Inference Saint Heir, it was evidently the first ti for others to see Ji Chen, casting curious glances at him.
After all, possessing Nine Spirit Veins, such talent, such a prodigy, was enough to ensure that no one present dared to underestimate him.
"Among the Nine Veins, how many throughout history have held them? Brother Ji is truly matchless in the world; it is a great honor to et a figure like you today."
Many raised their glasses, toasting Ji Chen. They were the true young kings within the Northern Nether Realm, different from ordinary scions of noble families, lacking the aloof pride, instead sowhat amiable.
Ji Chen reciprocated, drinking one cup after another.
Mo Cheng could not help but say, "Brother Ji’s Great Dao injury just worsened again, it’s better to drink less."
Hearing this, Ye Yunge and others couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.
Mo Cheng briefly recounted the incident where Ji Chen coughed up blood earlier.
Upon learning of this, soone couldn’t help but comnt, "Even the Night Emperor couldn’t overco this injury. Brother Ji, with such monstrous talent yet afflicted by the Great Dao injury, it’s truly lantable."
Ji Chen sighed, not wanting to dwell on this topic further. He looked at Si Ruyan and then asked, "Do you know where Luoning is now? Will she be here?"
Si Ruyan was silent; she knew that the relationship between Ji Chen and Qu Luoning was unusual. After a mont of silence, she said, "The Junior Sister should co, but..."
