Chapter 356 – Destroying the Formation with Brute Force
The entire sky above the mountain range was filled with glints and flashes of cold steel. All those sword created by the Heavenly Saint Sword turned into shooting stars as they flew across the area. Each and every single one of them looked like a deadly sword, causing those who looked at them to feel a shiver running down their spine.
Clang, clang, clang…
Bang! …
These sword clashed with the sea of swords unleashed by Xuan Yuzi. After that, they continued on and collided with Shangguan Yiqing’s sound waves, causing the entire scene to become extremely violent. First, there were clanging sounds and sparks flying off in all directions, and then, the other half of the mountain underneath them was destroyed, followed by a loud explosive sound.
Swoosh!
The Heavenly Saint Sword once again cried out. Since it was a sentient weapon, it just turned around and fell back into Jiang Chen’s hand.
On the other side, Xuan Yuzi was knocked back a few steps once again. His expression had become even uglier. He wasn’t the only one to suffer, one of the strings on Shangguan Yiqing’s zither was broken. This was his beloved weapon, and there were few who could resist its power. However, he had never expected it to crack after just one exchange with Jiang Chen.
It was such an intense battle, but the ending was completely unimaginable. Those warriors who stood outside Mount Tian yuan were very terrified, especially the warrior who had brought Jiang Chen here. He couldn’t help but continuously wipe sweat off his forehead.
“Oh Heavens, just how strong is he? He’s fighting those two at the same time, but he still has the upper hand! If I wasn’t here to witness this myself, I wouldn’t believe any of it at all!”
“Extremely fierce and brutal! I don’t think he’s a Combat Soul warrior, but in term of talent and potential, Jiang Chen is definitely number one in the Eastern Continent’s younger generation!”
“Let’s just continue watching, the battle has just begun; it’s far from finished! The Skynet Formation set up by Shangguan Yiqing has yet to be used! I’ve heard that this formation has an incredible effect, it can actually double someone’s combat strength!”
…………
None of the people in the crowd felt like they had wasted their time by coming here, because they were witnessing such a magnificent show. Watching how formidable Jiang Chen was with their own eyes, the shock they received was much different from hearing it from someone else.
As for those warriors who were stationed in their respective positions within the Skynet Formation, when they saw how formidable Jiang Chen was, their expressions immediately turned ugly. None of them had expected this, they thought that with the combined force of Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi, Jiang Chen would definitely be torn into a thousand pieces. However, what happened was actually the opposite of what they had expected. The combined force of the two number one geniuses from the Jian Province was actually being supressed by this guy alone!
“This guy’s combat strength is more or less equal to ours, but more importantly, the sword in his hand is too powerful!”
Xuan Yuzi said.
“It’s such a waste for him to have that sword.”
A greedy look could be found in Shangguan Yiqing’s eyes. The mighty strength of the Heavenly Saint Sword was more than enough to compare it to an ordinary King Weapon. No one could resist its temptation.
“Listen to my command! No paths in the Heavens; no doors on the ground; the Skynet!”
Shangguan Yiqing shouted out loudly as he connected his aura to the Skynet Formation. At the same time, bright beams shout out from all those warriors and fell into Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi’s bodies.
Buzz…
The void surrounding the two men shook, and their bodies were covered with boiling energies. By utilizing the Skynet Formation, Shangguan Yiqing had temporarily merged everyone’s combat strength into his and Xuan Yuzi’s body. With this, their combat strength was double.”
“The Union of Strings; the Luan and Phoenix’s Cry!”
Embracing the red zither, Shangguan Yiqing played different tunes this time. It was a pleasant tune that filled the entire sky with colorful lights, as if it was pleasant spring day. However, these bright and colorful lights were extremely devastating! Furthermore, this pleasant tune was like a true demon’s tune, and once it entered a person’s mind, it would immediately distract the person, causing him to be absent minded for a short moment of time. During a fight between true warriors, any split second lost was deadly!
“Hmph!”
Jiang Chen coldly harrumphed, then he unleashed a bright sword energy with the Heavenly Saint Sword which collided with the colorful bright lights and the tunes. At the same time, he circulated the Great Soul Derivation Skill, completely protecting his sea of consciousness and soul, not allowing the tune any chance to get close to him.
“Ruthless Slash!”
Xuan Yuzi, whose combat strength was doubled, attacked. In a ruthless manner, he swung the longsword in his hand, unleashed a vase sea of swords which flooded the entire battlefield.
“Haha, show me what you got!”
Jiang Chen was laughing heartily, filled with intense fighting intent. He really loved this kind of blood boiling battle. Each time he was in a battle like this, he would feel his warrior blood boiling. It was a sensation he often felt as he fought his way to the top in his previous life.
The Heavenly Saint Sword was Jiang Chen’s Natal Weapon, and it was connected to Jiang Chen’s life. At any time, he could unify his thoughts with its. Just like now, Jiang Chen had unified his thoughts with the Heavenly Saint Sword, and with just a thought in his mind, the Heavenly Saint Sword would immediately respond accordingly. This was the perfect match between a human and his combat weapon.
Bang!
The explosive sounds didn’t seem to stop sounding out, as the shockwaves of the battle swept across the place. It was an incredibly violent battle, and the tremendous forces had nearly destroyed the entire Mount Tianyuan. At the same time, the faces of those warriors who were watching from far away had turned pale, and they were constantly stepping backwards, scared they might get hit by the devastating shockwaves. Therefore, they could only stand in the middle of the air a dozen kilometers away.
It seemed like the battle was going to last for quite some time. A few minutes later, these three men had finally stopped attacking, and Jiang Chen stood a few steps behind where he originally stood. Nonetheless, with Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi’s combat strength double, as well as their good teamwork, they now had the ability to turn the tables.
Even with the Heavenly Saint Sword, Jiang Chen was not an undefeatable man. In the current situation where he had to fight two powerful men at the same time, it was actually pretty difficult for him. Therefore, he was at a disadvantageous position after exchanged a few rounds of attacks.
Even so, Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi were still tremendously shocked in their hearts. Jiang Chen’s mightiness had completely gone beyond their expectations. Both of them had merged with the formation, and they were fighting Jiang Chen together, but even with all this, they were only slightly advantageous. After exchanging so many attacks, they still hadn’t been able to hurt Jiang Chen at all.
“Let’s continue attacking, I have to kill him today!”
Xuan Yuzi said with a loud voice.
“Haha, Jiang Chen, I admit that your combat strength is incredible! But even so, you still can’t escape the Skynet Formation! I suggest you surrender now, no matter how you fight, you’re still going to die by our hands sooner or later!”
Shangguan Yiqing said with a laugh.
“Is that so?”
A sneer emerged onto Jiang Chen’s face. He took a step forward, and with incredible speed, he arrived in front of a warrior who was part of the formation.
Puchi!
The warrior was extremely terrified, and before he could do anything, Jiang Chen had chopped off his head, killing him, and thrown his dead body down from the sky. After that, with the same speed, Jiang Chen continued toward a second warrior.
He knew that if he wanted to kill Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi, he would need to break this Skynet Formation first. After he killed all these warriors who were part of the formation, Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi’s combat strength would be reduced to its original, and Jiang Chen would be able to kill them with full force.
Jiang Chen didn’t want to delay any longer. The more time he spent in this battle, the more unfavorable the situation would become.
Jiang Chen was too fast. Finally, when the crowd realized what was going on, three men had already died underneath his sword. The Skynet Formation was solely controlled by Shangguan Yiqing, and he could actually give these warriors a boost in their strength so that they could defend themselves from Jiang Chen. However, Shangguan Yiqing hadn’t expected Jiang Chen to do this, so he was too late to stop him.
“Bastard!”
Shangguan Yiqing was extremely furious. He and Xuan Yuzi immediately leapt forward and surrounded Jiang Chen by standing in front of him and behind him, stopping him from killing the men. If they didn’t stop him, the losses would be great.
“Nine Phantom Wolves!”
Jiang Chen gently shouted out. He unleashed nine identical figures of himself at the same time, instantly distracting both Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi. Taking this opportunity, the real Jiang Chen immediately flew away from them, and arrived in front of a Combat Soul warrior.
“Die!”
Jiang Chen never showed any mercy. He raised the Heavenly Saint Sword high up into the air and slashed down with a tremendous force. But, at the same time, this Combat Soul warrior received a boost to his strength. His combat strength was instantly raised to three times what it usually was.
Too bad, an Early Combat Soul genius, even if his combat strength was five times stronger than usual, he would never be Jiang Chen’s match.
Puchi!
One strike! One strike and the Combat Soul warrior was sliced in half! He died miserably on the spot.
Without giving Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi any chance to respond, Jiang Chen unleashed the Nine Phantom Wolves once again. At this moment, there were figures of Jiang Chen everywhere, dazzling all those who were watching the battle.
“Damn it, what kind of movement skill is this?!”
Xuan Yuzi cursed.
Arrhh!!
Another blood-curdling screech sounded out; another Early Combat Soul warrior was killed by Jiang Chen. Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi could clearly feel their combat strength being reduced.
What happened next was like a doomsday for the geniuses who stood within the Skynet Formation. Jiang Chen continuously avoided Shangguan Yiqing and Xuan Yuzi’s attacks, and appeared in front of the geniuses in the formation. Although they were prepared, whenever Jiang Chen struck, it meant death for them.
Soon, more than a dozen geniuses were killed by Jiang Chen. He was like a devil king that came straight from hell. Wherever he went, someone would be killed.
“I found the real him!”
Shangguan Yiqing suddenly shouted out. He had finally locked onto the real Jiang Chen. Without hesitating, he immediately attacked together with Xuan Yuzi.
“Haha, it’s all done!”
Jiang Chen burst into laughter. So what if Shangguan Yiqing finally found the real him? It was too late! The center of this Skynet Formation was Shangguan Yiqing, but after losing the support of so many people, cracks had already appeared on it, and it no longer posed any threat to Jiang Chen.
“I’ll destroy your formation with brute force; break for me!”
Jiang Chen shouted out in a fierce manner. He was like a mighty lion on a rampage! He raised the Heavenly Saint Sword high up into the air, and slashed down toward the light barrier in the sky!
Slash!
Nothing could stand in front of the Heavenly Saint Sword unhurt, especially together with the support of 4,500 Dragon Marks. The light barrier simply couldn’t resist any more, and a huge crack was produced, as a cause of Jiang Chen’s attack.
Ha!
Jiang Chen once again shouted out in a fierce manner. Numerous Dragon Marks started hovering around the Heavenly Saint Sword, and a massive amount of energy shot out from Jiang Che’s body like a tsunami, shattering the light barrier in an instant.
