LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 146: Sword Qi Far Exceeding Strength
The Grand Elder was also slightly shocked. How could this young man in front of him emit sword qi that far exceeded his own strength?
Although Su Chen was only at the sixth level of the Primordial Yang Realm, the sword qi he emitted now was at least at the ninth level of the Primordial Yang Realm.
Su Zhen couldn't determine the exact strength of Su Chen's sword qi, but he knew that the sword qi Su Chen emitted was definitely not just at the sixth level of the Primordial Yang Realm.
This kind of sword qi was at least much stronger than the sixth level of the Primordial Yang Realm.
Su Zhen didn't underestimate the situation and released all of his own strength.
Facing an opponent like Su Chen, Su Zhen had to face him with all his might.
Otherwise, he might very well lose.
Su Zhen made the first move, and a sword qi shot up into the sky.
While the sword qi flickered, Su Zhen's figure suddenly disappeared from its original position.
The next moment, a sharp sword qi came towards Su Chen.
Su Chen smiled, picked up the Longquan Sword, and raised it to block, deflecting Su Zhen's sword qi.
The sound of metal colliding.
Su Zhen felt a tingling sensation in his hand, and he took a few steps back before launching another attack.
This time, Su Zhen did not use sword qi.
Instead, he directly held the long sword, preparing to engage in close combat with Su Chen.
In a situation where there was a disparity in sword qi, engaging in a sword qi contest was a disadvantage.
Engaging in close combat could greatly alleviate this disadvantage.
This was based on experience. Su Zhen was indeed experienced, and his combat experience was abundant.
Su Zhen quickly approached Su Chen.
Su Zhen's speed was fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Su Chen.
Su Chen also gave up on using sword qi and directly engaged in close combat with Su Zhen.
He had already mastered the Longhu Mountain Body Tempering technique.
Su Chen's own physical fitness was also very strong.
Previously, Su Chen had never specifically developed the Body Tempering technique.
In past battles, Su Chen had always relied on sword qi and Dao techniques to directly crush his opponents.
He had not focused on forging his body.
And what Su Chen was most worried about was the test of martial arts. Martial arts tested the physical fitness, but Su Chen had never undergone physical training.
This time, he could shape his own body.
Su Chen raised his sword and directly blocked Su Zhen's attack.
Then, he sidestepped and swept his Longquan Sword.
This sword was purely powered by physical strength, and Su Zhen grunted and took a few steps back.
This kid's physical body is also so strong?
Su Chen activated the Longhu Mountain Body Tempering technique.
The system's voice came.
[Congratulations to the host for unlocking Body Tempering.]
[Current Body Tempering level: High Yellow Grade.]
[Body Tempering points needed for the next stage of Body Refining: 0/5000.]
Su Zhen's expression changed. At this moment, Su Chen's physical toughness far exceeded his imagination.
Su Zhen took a few steps back.
It seemed that relying solely on physical fitness wouldn't give Su Zhen any advantage.
Su Zhen released his own sword qi. This time, he released all of his sword qi, hoping to directly overwhelm Su Chen with this attack.
This was the strongest attack Su Zhen could release.
If this didn't work, Su Zhen would have no way out.
Su Chen smiled faintly, and a burst of dragon breath suddenly emanated from the Longquan Sword.
The expression of the Grand Elder suddenly changed.
That sword indeed had a spirit!
The next moment, all the sword qi emitted by Su Chen's Longquan Sword completely blocked Su Zhen's sword qi.
After executing this move, Su Chen retracted the Longquan Sword.
He knew that Su Zhen had no way to launch another attack.
As the sword qi dissipated, Su Zhen looked somewhat dejected.
"I lost!"
The elder walked up to Su Chen and said, "You have no reason to blame yourself. Su Chen's strength is very strong, and your current cultivation level cannot surpass him."
The elder then turned to Su Chen and asked, "Can you tell me who you learned your swordsmanship from?"
Su Chen hesitated for a moment. He couldn't possibly say that he learned it from the system.
If he had to talk about this swordsmanship, it seemed like he first encountered it when playing chess with an old man.
He comprehended the sword moves based on his understanding of chess moves.
But that was all a long time ago.
Su Chen bowed and said, "I am self-taught."
The elder signaled for Su Zhen to leave.
Su Zhen nodded and turned to leave.
No one else saw this battle, but Su Zhen and the elder knew very well that another super strong cultivator would emerge on this continent.
To achieve such a level at this age, Su Chen's talent could no longer be described as just genius.
Su Chen took a step forward and asked, "Elder, can I consider myself as having passed the trial of the Sword Sect now?"
The elder nodded.
"Of course."
"I hope you have a smooth journey to Kunlun Mountain."
The elder did not try to keep Su Chen. He knew that the Sword Sect was definitely not the end for someone like Su Chen.
And he did not have the qualifications to be his master.
It probably wouldn't be long before Su Chen's strength surpassed his own.
Su Chen nodded in thanks.
Then, he left the Sword Sect.
Outside the Sword Sect, Su Xiaoyu was waiting. When she saw Su Chen approaching, she immediately greeted him.
"How did it go? Are you okay?"
"Of course, I have successfully passed."
Su Xiaoyu was taken aback.
Although she knew that Su Chen was very strong, she did not expect him to pass the Sword Sect's certification trial so easily, especially considering that Su Chen had arrived here less than an hour ago.
Su Chen said, "Let's go. The next sect we're going to is the Dao Sect."
Just as Su Chen was about to turn and leave, he heard the voice of the elder behind him.
"Su Chen, don't leave just yet."
Su Chen turned around in confusion. "What's wrong, Elder?"
The elder took a step forward and then took out a manual.
"This is a manual from our Sword Sect. For thousands of years, no one has been able to see its contents because it only seeks those with fate. Today, I'm giving this manual to you."
The third elder's expression changed drastically.
"Elder, that's our sect's heirloom!"
The elder ignored the third elder and handed the manual to Su Chen.
"Open it and take a look."
Su Chen opened the manual, and it was densely filled with many techniques.
"The Return of Ten Thousand Swords Technique, a very good name."
Su Chen's voice was soft, but the expressions of the elder and the third elder suddenly changed.
They looked at Su Chen in shock.
The third elder's rough voice came out.
"You can see the contents of this manual?"
Su Chen was puzzled.
"What's wrong? Doesn't it clearly say 'The Return of Ten Thousand Swords Technique' on the book?"
The third elder looked incredulous.
The elder breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that they had found the right person today.
This manual was the technique left behind by the person who entered Kunlun Mountain and ascended to the Great Thousand World.
