"You mean it was the blessings or Dao resonance of these immortal herbs that allowed your Sword God Pearls to evolve or ascend, giving you second-stage advanced techniques." Chen Cong had grasped the reasoning behind his explanation. A trace of excitement crept into his voice, and he clearly found the explanation convincing.
"Yes. Otherwise, there's no explaining such a terrifying increase in power. It's already beyond all common sense." Chen Xiaojun nodded firmly.
"That's a very reasonable deduction, but it still needs further verification." Chen Cong nodded in approval of Chen Xiaojun's reasoning, though practical testing was still needed to confirm it.
"That's exactly what I'd like you to test for yourself, Second Granduncle." The corners of Chen Xiaojun's mouth lifted as he formed a sword gesture with his right hand.
"What?" Chen Cong looked a little surprised.
"First Soul Skill-Fleeting Light, Passing Shadow!"
Chen Xiaojun's Chengying Sword suddenly appeared before Chen Cong in an ambush, as though it had emerged from another dimension.
Who was Chen Cong? A sword-wielding Titled Douluo! In that flash of lightning, he caught the Chengying Sword between two fingers.
"Little Xiaojun, your Chengying Sword has become much more unpredictable. If you hadn't warned me just now, I really wouldn't have noticed it. A Space Attribute?"
"Yes, uh, my Chengying Sword already had a Space Attribute. Now it feels as though that attribute has reached completion. But you're incredible, Second Granduncle. I can't land a hit on you at all."
"Haha, your First Soul Skill is already quite stunning. Perhaps you'll manage it once your cultivation is higher." Chen Cong smiled encouragingly.
"Is that so?" Chen Xiaojun chuckled.
There was a soft click, and the sword's hilt split into two sections. Chen Cong sensed Sword Qi stabbing straight toward him, but it was too late.
