Chapter 122: I Am Qin Chuan!
🕑 Added 2024-09-24 07:30:14 +0000 UTCAs soon as the elder finished speaking, he made his move.
With a wave of his right hand, various laws converged, forming a colossal law sword, a thousand feet long, that slashed down.
Screech!
The air emitted a piercing friction sound, as though a massive mountain was being cleaved in half, the blade grinding against countless rocks.
This strike was terrifying.
But Qin Chuan gripped the Qinglian Sword and raised it high. Immediately, endless green light burst from the sword, transforming into an enormous green lotus.
Boom—
The elder's law sword struck the green lotus, causing the sky to tremble. Green lightning scattered in all directions, and with a sharp crack, the law sword broke apart and shattered into countless fragments.
"Go!"
Within the lotus, Qin Chuan swung his sword, and the gigantic lotus instantly expanded. Each petal transformed into a sharp sword light, cutting through the sky and rushing toward the elder.
"Heh, such a small trick."
The elder sneered disdainfully at the incoming sword light. Calmly, he extended his right hand in front of him.
Buzz!
A five-colored, resplendent barrier radiated from his palm, forming what seemed to be the most impenetrable defense in the world.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One after another, the Qinglian sword lights crashed into the colorful barrier, sparking brilliantly, creating ripples upon impact, like meteors hitting the atmosphere, only to burn up and disappear.
However, just as the last few sword lights hit the barrier and sparked even brighter, a cold blade pierced through!
Clang!!
This sword strike was incredibly sharp. No matter what defenses or cycles of elements were in place, it tore right through!
Pfft!
Blood sprayed from the elder's chest, and the condescending smile on his face froze, his entire body stiffening for a moment.
He was utterly shocked.
Then, he was completely enraged.
"Blood Dragon Soars!"
In the blink of an eye, the elder retreated rapidly, slamming his right hand into his left chest.
Swoosh!
A flood of blood infused with sword qi gushed out. With a swift motion, the elder waved his right hand, like a painter using blood to create a masterpiece in mid-air. In an instant, he drew a massive blood-red dragon!
From a distance, it looked as though the elder had pulled a dragon straight from his chest—an astonishing and visceral display.
Boom!
As the blood dragon took shape, it expanded wildly, its enormous body coiling in the sky before slamming into Qin Chuan.
Crack!
A translucent shield appeared around Qin Chuan, instantly forming cracks as his body was sent flying back a thousand meters.
"Huh?"
After stabilizing himself, Qin Chuan's face showed a hint of surprise. This old guy had an impressive battle sense.
In the moment when the sword pierced him, the elder had not only immediately expelled the sword qi from his body but had also turned his blood, tainted by the sword qi, into a powerful attack, launching a counterstrike!
Fortunately, Qin Chuan was currently in his "invincible when faced with stronger opponents" state. Though the blood dragon had hit him, his protective energy field had barely withstood the blow.
"Blood Dragon Devours the Sky!"
The elder roared, waving his arms. The blood dragon soared into the sky, opening its massive maw as it dived toward Qin Chuan.
"Break!"
Qin Chuan swung his sword, slicing the blood dragon in half. However, the dragon's body dissolved into a sea of blood, cascading down like a waterfall.
Qin Chuan raised a protective barrier to shield himself from the blood, but the blood transformed into a fiery inferno, enveloping the shield.
"With blood as fuel, may the flames incinerate the gods!"
The elder's cold voice echoed. Qin Chuan suddenly felt the intense heat from the flames, even as his barrier rapidly melted. A strange agitation and heat crept into his mind, making him momentarily distracted as absurd images flashed through his head—like attending a frustrating online class.
"Die!"
At this moment, the elder raised his right hand high, forming a hand blade. He slashed down, and a vast blade of light descended from the heavens like the Milky Way falling to the earth!
"Father!"
Qin Zi shouted in panic, realizing that his father was in a strange state, as if cursed by some evil magic.
Ding!
But in the next instant, the massive blade of light was caught between two fingers, and the flames from the blood evaporated as the blade sliced through them.
"How is this possible?!"
The elder's face twisted in disbelief. He exclaimed, "How could you break free from the Burning God’s Flames?!"
"With no distractions in the heart, drawing a sword becomes divine."
Qin Chuan said calmly. Before the elder could react, Qin Chuan stepped forward into the void, his figure disappearing.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
In an instant, he moved like a bolt of lightning, zigzagging across the sky, and in a flash, he appeared before the elder, thrusting his sword!
"Defend!"
The elder roared, his body glowing brightly. The nine law orbs around him gathered in front of his chest, forming an impenetrable defense.
Crack!
Qin Chuan's indomitable sword struck the defense with a crisp sound. A glass-like crack appeared on the law barrier, and the sword tip pierced through but couldn't go any further.
"Heh, though you have immense brute strength, you’ll never break my defense!" the elder declared with gritted teeth.
"Is that so?"
Qin Chuan smirked coldly. Suddenly, his shoulder twitched, and three dazzling lotus flowers rose from above his head.
"Break—"
Pfft!!
With a low growl, an overwhelming sharp force penetrated the law barrier, and the Qinglian Sword stabbed straight through the elder's body. This time, it pierced him entirely.
"No!!!"
The elder screamed, for this devastating strike not only impaled him but also destroyed his foundation at that very moment.
In other words, he was finished.
"Let’s die together!!"
He took a deep breath, absorbing the nine law orbs into his body. A terrifying force of destruction began to surge from within him.
Boom—
A deafening explosion lit up the sky, and the resulting shockwave blew everyone backward, causing many to cough up blood!
When the light finally dissipated, everyone was shocked to see that the white-robed figure still stood tall in the sky.
His robes fluttered in the wind, unstained. The terrifying explosion hadn’t caused him the slightest harm.
This man seemed to grow stronger with every challenge, his strength unfathomable and limitless.
"You… you…"
The golden-crowned middle-aged man turned pale, staring at Qin Chuan in disbelief, unable to form words.
What could he even say now?
This person was too powerful. Not only had he killed a Ninth Heaven elder, but he had also emerged unscathed from the elder’s self-destruction.
It was as if the earlier battle had been a game to him, a mere diversion.
"Well, how many more Ninth Heaven elders does your Lu family have? Call them all out at once—let’s see… if I can slay them all!"
Qin Chuan smiled, but it was the smile of a devil.
"This…"
The hundreds of Lu family experts trembled, even the two remaining Ninth Heaven elders among them quaking in fear.
After all, a fellow Ninth Heaven elder had just been slain before their eyes. The sight alone was enough to send chills down their spines.
"Let’s… leave." One of the Ninth Heaven elders finally spoke, preparing to lead the group away.
"Hold it."
Qin Chuan's voice rang out, calm but commanding. "If you don’t give me a satisfactory explanation for today’s events, none of you will be leaving. In fact, I might pay a visit to the Lu family myself, to see just how many more experts you have."
Swoosh!
The Lu family members froze in place.
The golden-crowned man’s face twitched, turning back to Qin Chuan with clenched teeth. "In life, you should leave a path open for future encounters! Do you really have to press us this hard?"
"Spare me your nonsense. If I don’t get a proper explanation today, your Lu family won’t have a future!"
Qin Chuan's tone was ironclad.
"You!!"
The golden-crowned man’s eyes bulged in rage, but he didn’t dare act out, knowing he was only a Seventh Heaven Saint.
If even a Ninth Heaven Saint could be easily killed, what chance did he have of surviving?
"Sigh… the Lu family concedes."
One of the remaining Ninth Heaven elders finally stepped forward, addressing the crowd. "The truth is, these young talents were indeed killed by our Lu family… We only learned the full story later."
"Lu Chong, in a moment of disgrace during the Divine Radiance Gathering, was blinded by his humiliation and did something utterly foolish. Now, he has been punished, his death being a fitting end."
Swoosh!
The crowd erupted in fury.
Their eyes burned with anger and hatred. So, it had truly been the Lu family behind it all!
The most infuriating part was that they had all been kept in the dark, used as pawns by the Lu family!
"The Lu family has gone too far!"
"Monstrous!"
"Heartless!!"
“Please, Master, take action! Wipe out the Lu family! Avenge the young ones who perished and rid the Eastern Domain of this scourge!”
The crowd, filled with righteous indignation, cursed and accused. Some even began to plead with Qin Chuan, hoping he would uphold justice.
“Heh, weren’t you all calling me a demon earlier? Now you want me to be your savior?”
Qin Chuan chuckled mockingly and said indifferently, “I’ve already made it clear—I stayed here only to prove my innocence. As for the rest… what does it have to do with me?”
What!!!
Upon hearing this, the crowd fell silent, their faces flushing with shame.
Indeed, they had treated him so harshly before, and this man owed them nothing. Why would he bother to help them now?
But regardless of how things had unfolded, it was thanks to him that the truth had come to light.
Someone hesitantly asked, “May we know your esteemed name, Master?”
Swoosh!
All eyes turned to Qin Chuan.
“It’s finally time.”
Qin Chuan took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart. Slowly raising his head to look at the sky, he calmly said, “I am… Qin Chuan!!”
