LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 145 Asking The Sword
The aura of that figure was incredibly powerful, and the oppressive feeling in the surroundings instantly intensified.
An old man with white hair appeared.
Su Chen's expression slightly changed.
The strength of this old man has already reached the Soul Formation stage.
As a Soul Formation stage expert, Su Chen's current strength is still not enough!
The old man's figure trembled slightly, and a huge sword spirit appeared behind him.
"Kid, what sect are you from? What gives you the right to act so arrogantly here?"
The old man angrily questioned, the fluctuations of his spiritual power on his body were extremely strong, and the aura of the sword spirit became even more real.
It can be seen that this old man is somewhat angry about Su Chen injuring those disciples of the Sword Sect.
Su Chen calmly raised his gaze and said, "Su Chen of the Veiled Spirit Sect, I have come specifically to the Sword Sect to inquire about swordsmanship."
The old man snorted.
"Your current sword aura is not worthy! Moreover, do you think you can look down on my Sword Sect by using this method to inquire about swordsmanship?"
Su Chen solemnly said, "I have no intention of looking down on the Sword Sect. On the contrary, I have great respect for it. Since the elder has come, why not test my swordsmanship and see how it fares?"
Su Chen flew up, and the Longquan Sword suddenly unsheathed, releasing a powerful sword aura.
Facing the elder of the Sword Sect, this time, Su Chen held nothing back. The pure sword aura condensed on the Longquan Sword and directly attacked the elder's vital point.
Blue light radiated from Su Chen's eyes as his Limitless Spirit Eye activated, clearly seeing the elder's weaknesses.
But in the next moment, the sword aura from the sword spirit behind the old man directly attacked the Longquan Sword.
Clang!
The sound of swords clashing!
A powerful force directly transmitted to Su Chen's arm.
Su Chen's hand holding the Longquan Sword trembled, and his grip on the sword hilt weakened. The strength of a Soul Formation stage expert was still too strong.
Above the Primordial Yang stage, each realm had a considerable gap. Su Chen was only at the sixth stage of the Primordial Yang stage, while this old man had at least reached the second stage of the Soul Formation stage, a difference of five stages, which was too huge.
Sweat gradually appeared on Su Chen's forehead.
The old man shouted loudly, and then his spiritual power surged. The sword aura of the sword spirit on his body intensified, directly sending Su Chen flying.
Su Chen's figure flew back a hundred meters, and two traces of blood appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Su Chen's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect this old man to be so strong.
Seeing the old man take action, several disciples laughed heartily.
"This sword cultivator thinks he's invincible. It's best to teach him a lesson!"
The old man landed on the ground, and the sword spirit on his body suddenly disappeared. His steps were steady as he walked towards Su Chen step by step.
Su Chen activated his spiritual power, dispelling the soreness in his arm, and tightened his grip on the Longquan Sword, standing firm once again.
At this moment, a voice came from the sky, "Third Elder, hold on!"
Another old man appeared not far away.
This elder had white hair, but his body was strong and vigorous. The sharpness in his eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.
"What's going on?"
"The Grand Elder has arrived!"
Several disciples exclaimed.
The person who had just fought against Su Chen was the third elder of the Sword Sect.
And the person who had arrived now was the Grand Elder of the Sword Sect.
"Third Elder, why did you attack a junior?"
The third elder snorted.
"This kid injured five disciples of the Sword Sect."
"And, this kid is extremely arrogant. If we don't teach him a lesson, he won't know the heights of heaven and earth."
The Grand Elder glanced at the five disciples, and they immediately lowered their heads, filled with shame.
This was a big embarrassment.
The Grand Elder's expression slightly changed.
These disciples were all at the third stage of the Primordial Yang stage. Could this young man, who was only in his twenties, really defeat five experts at the third stage of the Primordial Yang stage by himself?
The Grand Elder looked at Su Chen and asked, "What is your name?"
Su Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "I am Su Chen."
"Why did you come to the Sword Sect?"
"I came to inquire about swordsmanship. I want to pass the Sword Sect's assessment and obtain the qualification to enter Kunlun Mountain."
Su Chen was neither humble nor arrogant, speaking naturally.
In front of the strong cultivators at the Soul Formation stage, Su Chen's attitude was enough to show his extraordinary nature.
Su Xiaoyu, who was behind, looked at Su Chen with worry in her eyes.
If something happened to Su Chen, Su Xiaoyu would definitely risk her life to help him. After all, she was already Su Chen's wife.
The elder walked up to Su Chen and asked, "Are you here to take the assessment of the Sword Sect?"
Su Chen nodded.
The elder nodded.
"Good, then follow me."
The third elder still had some unwillingness. Su Chen's attitude just now was too arrogant.
The elder walked up to the third elder and said, "Young man, a little arrogance is nothing."
Su Chen followed the elder to a square.
On that square, there were many disciples of the Sword Sect.
The Sword Sect had more people than the Medicine Sect, after all, many talented individuals chose to cultivate sword techniques, Dao methods, and martial arts. Only such cultivators had strong self-defense abilities.
Although alchemists were rare, their own strength was not formidable and they still needed others to protect them.
The elder asked, "What is your current strength?"
"Sixth level of the Primordial Yang stage."
The elder pondered for a moment.
"It's still acceptable, but not strong enough. It will be difficult to pass the assessment."
In the past, most of those who passed the Sword Sect's trial were experts close to the Soul Formation stage, mostly at the eighth level of the Primordial Yang stage.
Although it was only a difference of two levels.
But at the Primordial Yang stage, the difference in strength between these two levels was huge.
Each level of the Primordial Yang stage was difficult to break through, and even with just a one-level difference in cultivation, the difference in strength was like heaven and earth.
Su Chen nodded.
"Elder, I want to participate in the assessment now."
"You only have the sixth level of the Primordial Yang stage. Are you sure?"
Su Chen nodded.
"I'm sure."
Since Su Chen made this choice, the elder had nothing more to say.
The elder advised earnestly, "Young man, being too arrogant is not good."
Su Chen smiled.
"It's okay, I'm ready."
The elder walked to the side and called a disciple not far away.
The disciple was in his thirties, a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man walked over and asked, "Elder, what can I do for you?"
"This young man is called Su Chen and wants to take the Sword Sect's trial. You can spar with him."
The disciple chosen by the elder was named Su Zhen.
He was an eighth level Primordial Yang stage sword cultivator.
The elder quite admired Su Chen and didn't make things too difficult for him.
If Su Chen could defeat someone at the eighth level of the Primordial Yang stage, it would be considered a pass.
Su Zhen nodded, then walked up to Su Chen and bowed.
"Brother Su Chen, please make your move."
Su Chen nodded and stepped aside, taking out the Longquan Sword.
The elder was slightly shocked.
That sword was filled with spiritual energy, definitely not an ordinary sword. However, he didn't know if it had a spirit.
But the elder didn't hold much hope for it having a spirit.
Because swords with spirits were extremely rare.
Hardly ever seen.
Su Chen stood still, then released his own spiritual energy.
Su Zhen's expression changed.
This kid's spiritual energy was indeed at the sixth level of the Primordial Yang stage, but this sword energy didn't seem like the sword energy of the sixth level of the Primordial Yang stage!
