The people below were also dumbfounded.
Xiao Lan's eyes widened. "He... he... is he really that outrageous? Just one word, and that sword vanished? Holy crap! What level of skill does that take?"
Gu Xun'er stared at Su Chen, a complex emotion flickering in her eyes, and murmured softly, "It seems there really is no hope..."
Jiang Xin's head was spinning, and she looked utterly incredulous. "How could he be so strong?"
Lin Fan clenched his fists, his eyes filled with fighting spirit, "I will definitely become someone like my master!"
As he spoke, he gripped his hand even tighter.
Jianxin stood there dumbfounded, still in a daze. After the initial shock, he was even more bewildered, staring at Su Chen with disbelief in his eyes.
He asked in a trembling voice, "How... how did you do that?"
Su Chen smiled slightly and said softly, "You're too weak, it's that simple."
Upon hearing this, Jianxin fell silent.
He's too weak?
This was the first time in eighteen years that someone had said this to him. However, what they said was true; after all, with just one word, they had dissipated his strongest attack.
He even wondered if Su Chen would utter the word "death," and if he did, would he die instantly?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but swallow hard, because Su Chen might really be able to kill him with a single word!
At this moment, his gaze towards Su Chen held a hint of awe.
Su Chen suddenly asked, "Do we still want to fight?"
Jianxin gave a bitter smile.
beat?
What are you talking about?!
Are you looking for a masochistic experience?
He shook his head. "I'm not fighting anymore. I can't win."
Su Chen nodded and said, "Mm."
Jianxin took a deep breath, then slowly knelt down before Su Chen, and respectfully called out, "Master!"
As he spoke, he bent over, his head touching the ground. Just then, an invisible force lifted him up.
Su Chen looked at Jianxin and smiled, "From this moment on, you are my second disciple."
Upon hearing this, Jianxin frowned slightly. "A second disciple?"
Su Chen nodded and looked down at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan vanished from his spot and reappeared beside Su Chen, bowing and calling out, "Master!"
As he spoke, he turned to look at Jianxin and smiled, "Junior Brother!"
Looking at Lin Fan, Jianxin nodded without saying a word.
Lin Fan smiled and didn't say anything more.
Su Chen extended his right hand, then opened it, revealing a long sword in his palm. The sword was pure white, with no carvings on its blade, making it appear exceptionally ordinary.
Jianxin looked at the sword, his eyes lighting up; clearly, he was tempted.
Su Chen looked at Jianxin and smiled, "This sword is called Light Scar. Its strength is equal to yours."
Upon hearing this, Jianxin's eyes widened in disbelief. "How strong is this sword as I am?"
Su Chen nodded and said, "Yes."
Jianxin was in turmoil.
How strong is the sword as well as the strength of the user?
What grade of sword would be needed to do that?
Immortal artifact?
Magical artifact?
But can celestial artifacts and divine artifacts really do that?
Could it be a sword without a rank?
Jianxin was deeply troubled and unable to calm down for a long time.
If it's really as Su Chen said, then that's too outrageous. You have to understand, he's never heard of a sword without a rank in this world before.
At this moment, Su Chen handed the Light Scar Sword to Jianxin, saying, "This is a gift from your master to you as we first meet."
Looking at the Light Scar Sword before him, Jianxin was tempted. He was about to reach for it, but then stopped in mid-air. He looked down at the sword in his hand, his eyes filled with complex emotions. After a moment, he shook his head and said to Su Chen, "I can't take this sword."
Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in Lin Fan's eyes.
He couldn't understand why Jianxin would reject such a fine sword!
Are you crazy?
Su Chen looked at Jianxin and smiled, "Why?"
Jianxin looked at the longsword in his hand and said, "This is enough for me."
Buzz!
As soon as he finished speaking, the longsword in his hand suddenly emitted a sword cry, as if it were both excited and responding.
Jianxin smiled and gently stroked the sword with his left hand.
Su Chen said, "This sword of mine is a rankless sword, it's quite good, are you sure you don't want it?"
After listening, Jianxin glanced at the Light Scar Sword.
He guessed correctly; it was indeed a sword without any rank. To be honest, he was quite shocked.
There really are swords without rank in this world!
However, even knowing it was a sword without any rank, he remained unmoved. "No need, my sword is fine."
Su Chen smiled and asked, "Why?"
Jianxin glanced at the sword in his hand and slowly said, "This has been my companion for the past eighteen years. How could I abandon it just because I could have a better sword?"
Su Chen said, "But when you become stronger, this sword won't be suitable for you anymore."
After listening, Jianxin fell silent.
Su Chen was right. If Jianxin were stronger and still used this sword, it wouldn't be able to unleash Jianxin's true power, and might even explode because it couldn't withstand Jianxin's power.
After a long while, Jianxin suddenly looked at Su Chen and said, "What if the sword is powerful? As long as it's in my hands, even if it's of low rank, I can still make it the most powerful sword! I will use this sword to become the strongest swordsman in the world!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying Sword Intent suddenly erupted from Jianxin's body. This Sword Intent shot straight up to the heavens, which was extremely frightening. At the same time, Jianxin's aura also surged wildly.
boom!
False Immortal Realm Second Stage!
boom!
False Immortal Realm Third Stage!
boom!
The False Immortal Realm Fourth Stage!
In the blink of an eye, his cultivation level reached the False Immortal Realm Fourth Stage Peak!
Seeing this, Su Chen smiled. "Not bad."
The people below looked completely bewildered.
Xiao Lan exclaimed, "How... how did he break through? And he broke through two levels at once!"
Gu Xun'er said, "Is this what a genius or prodigy is? I feel so useless right now."
Jiang Xin smiled wryly, "Don't even mention you, I feel like I'm no different from a piece of trash right now."
Lin Fan stared at Jianxin, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
Previously, his opponents were mostly from the older generation, because he was practically invincible among the younger generation. Because of this, he hadn't encountered an opponent of the same level who could put pressure on him for a long time. But now, Jianxin was putting pressure on him, so he couldn't wait to fight Jianxin!
I want to settle things with Jianxin!
Jianxin seemed to sense Lin Fan's fighting spirit, and suddenly looked at Lin Fan, his eyes also filled with overwhelming fighting spirit.
"War!"
Lin Fan and Jianxin roared simultaneously, then vanished from their spots.
Buzz!
Buzz!
Bang!
Two sword cries rang out, and at that moment, the sky suddenly exploded, with countless Sword Intent crisscrossing within a million miles!
The terrifying sword aura shook the heavens!
At this moment, Lin Fan and Jianxin retreated simultaneously. Just then, Jianxin charged towards Lin Fan like a thunderbolt, gripping his longsword tightly in his right hand, and thrust out with a single strike!
This sword strike contained an extremely terrifying Sword Dao power, instantly tearing the entire space-time into countless fragments.
