Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Chapter 244 The Battle of Sword Cultivator (Part 1)

Wang Chen beheaded a Fifth Peaks Mountain cultivator at the ninth tier of Qi Cultivation with a single stroke of his sword, and another cultivator from the same mountain at the seventh tier of Qi Cultivation immediately felt terrified and, without thinking, retreated backward.

At the same time, he slapped numerous talismans onto himself in quick succession.

Bursts of spiritual light bloomed, layering him with protective spells that displayed a rainbow of colors under the sunlight.

As it turned out, this Fifth Peaks Mountain cultivator's reaction was absolutely correct.

The next moment, a huge Fire Crow spread its wings and in a breath, drew a long line of fire in the air.

It struck him hard.

Bang!

Accompanied by the bursting flame, the Fifth Peaks Mountain cultivator was immediately blasted away.

However, shielded by the multiple spells, he was only dazed by the shockwave of the explosion; his body did not suffer any real harm, and he still had the strength to shake out a Flying Flame Talisman!

Seeing the distress flares explode in the air, Wang Chen immediately abandoned the idea of further pursuit.

He controlled the Fire Crow sword to cut the storage bag from the waist of the cultivator in front and wrapped it with sword light to fly it back to him.

Then he made his escape to the southwest, riding the Silver Spirit Flying Shuttle!

These two Fifth Peaks Mountain cultivators were clearly on perimeter patrol duty around Wind-Thunder Valley; inside the valley, there must be other fellow sect members, and perhaps even Purple Mansion cultivators.

Although Wang Chen's current strength was enough to sweep across his tier, he could kill a ninth-tier Qi Cultivation cultivator in an instant.

But this did not mean he was invincible in Qi Cultivation.

The Fifth Peaks Mountain cultivator he had just repelled, although only possessing the cultivation level of the seventh tier of Qi Cultivation, managed to withstand the Great Perfection level Fire Crow Technique, and even with the aid of talismans and magical artifacts, he should not be underestimated.

If he encountered a group attack from the other side, Wang Chen did not have a 100% certainty of escaping.

So, he chose to retreat decisively.

His strong mana flowed continuously into the Silver Spirit Flying Shuttle, and Wang Chen pushed the speed of this flying artifact to its limits.

In one breath, he flew out twenty or thirty miles, but then he suddenly felt a prickling sensation on his back!

Wang Chen instinctively looked back and was shocked to discover a streak of sword light chasing after him like lightning.

The distance was only a thousand steps away!

Sword Cultivator?

Wang Chen had not expected to provoke a sword cultivator capable of Sword Flight.

That sword cultivator's speed was incredibly fast, and he pursued Wang Chen relentlessly, closing the distance between them.

This won't do!

Wang Chen realized it was only a matter of time before the Fifth Peaks Mountain sword cultivator caught up to him.

And not much time at that.

He made a split decision and immediately dove downward, vanishing into the dense forest below in an instant.

Wang Chen was also half a sword cultivator and knew that the more open the surroundings, the more powerful the Flying Sword would be.

Even though his Sword Control Technique had reached Great Perfection, he still did not possess the ability for Sword Flight.

The pursuer's strength was evident!

"Where do you think you're going!"

Just as Wang Chen landed in the forest, he heard a sharp reprimand from above.

A ferocious sword light suddenly descended from the sky, tearing through the canopy of the large trees and crashing down!

It was too fast!

Wang Chen disappeared from the spot in an instant.

He successively used Shrinking Ground into Inches, moving through the forest like a specter.

He also added a Great Perfection level Stealth Breath Technique to himself.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Accompanied by horrifying sounds of snapping, towering trees behind Wang Chen kept collapsing.

No matter how he dodged and hid, the sword light containing destructive power was still relentlessly pursuing him, like a maggot to the bone.

Wang Chen felt that something was off and immediately took out the storage bag he had just obtained and threw it forward.

He suspected that the storage bag had some kind of marker from Fifth Peaks Mountain, which was why the other party could lock onto his position so firmly.

Bang!

The Storage Bag was shredded by the Sword Light, instantly exploding into a pile of powder, everything inside turned to ashes and smoke.

At this moment, Wang Chen also clearly saw the appearance of his pursuer.

The female Sword Cultivator from Five Peaks Mountain was a young woman dressed in a white robe, with a beautifully painted face and outstanding poise. However, her expression was cold as ice, her eyes chillingly frosty, with hints of thunder flashing within.

After shattering the Storage Bag, she landed on the ground, her state of Sword Flight terminated. Sweat beaded her forehead, and her breath was slightly erratic.

Clearly, she had expended a considerable amount of mana.

Wang Chen was only a hundred steps away from his opponent, creating a face-off between them.

The woman in white glanced at Wang Chen coldly, suddenly flinging her Cloud-stream Long Sleeves, and a Sword Light attacked Wang Chen with the speed of lightning.

A sword hidden within the sleeve!

Coincidentally, Wang Chen almost simultaneously unleashed the Fire Crow Sword.

The Flying Sword, imbued with the Fire Crow Technique, carrying scorching flames, clashed fiercely with the woman's Flying Sword.

Clang!

Accompanied by an earth-shattering clang, countless sparks flew in all directions.

The Fire Crow Sword let out a tragic cry as its Sword Qi shattered and it flew back dimmed, its spiritual nature obviously damaged.

Wang Chen's head buzzed as if he had been fiercely stabbed.

Excruciating pain!

Ever since he acquired the Fire Crow Sword, Wang Chen had spent day and night in companionship with the sword, refining it over the years.

With his Divine Soul linked, his Spiritual Sense residing within, it was a relationship where one prospered the other followed, and if one suffered, the other did too.

But the Fire Crow Sword was not his life-bound Magic Artifact, so even if it were seriously damaged or destroyed, the impact on Wang Chen wouldn't be fatal.

His consciousness became even clearer, consecutively using the Shrinking Ground into Inches technique and instantly closing in on the woman in white.

The fight between the two shifted abruptly from mid- to close-range combat.

The woman in white hadn't expected Wang Chen would actually close in on her.

But she stood undaunted, her reaction swift!

In the absence of enough time to recall her Flying Sword, the woman raised her right hand, her index and middle fingers together like a sword, and thrust at Wang Chen.

At the tip of her fingers, a beam of invisible Sword Qi shot out, aiming straight for the vital point between Wang Chen's eyebrows!

In her eyes, there appeared a hint of mocking disdain.

As if she were ridiculing Wang Chen's overestimation of his own strength.

At the same time, a layer of silver-white light suddenly emerged around the woman's body, providing her with a solid defense.

Just then, Wang Chen's fist arrived.

Wang Chen's punch seemed simple and straightforward, with no variation or hidden tricks, as it hammered directly forward.

But the moment the punch was thrown, the Heavenly Dragon Roaring Dharma Aspect suddenly appeared behind him!

As the punch was launched, the space around seemed to collapse.

The woman in white's expression changed!

Her invisible Sword Qi failed to hit the target.

Because, in the nick of time, Wang Chen had tilted his head just enough to evade the fatal strike. Explore more adventures at m,v l'-NovelBin.net

And the strength of Wang Chen's punch sealed off all of her retreats.

She felt as though she was being overwhelmed by mountains!

With no way to dodge, the woman in white had no choice but to take Wang Chen's punch head-on.

Boom!

Wang Chen's fist, fueled with the full force of his Vajra Fist technique, collided with the woman's Body Protection Magical Shield.

She was involuntarily sent flying backward, the Spiritual Light that covered her entire body disintegrating in an instant.
