Chapter 524: Chapter 523, Killing Lei Gang, Unexpected Change Arises_1
CRACK! CRACK...
Lei Gang looked at himself in disbelief, then turned his horrified gaze to Jiang Chen.
Impossible. How could he possibly control the Law of Power?
Lei Gang fell to the ground. Jiang Chen’s sword strike had not only shattered the Divine Domain but had also smashed Lei Gang’s Thunder Armor, splitting his body in two.
The scene fell silent.
How is this possible? Lei Gang actually lost the battle? He died?
What did that last sword strike mean? Such a terrifying sword! Could it be that he comprehended the Divine Domain during combat?
Such a powerful sword! That strike was breathtakingly brilliant!
This sword strike surpassed Er Xin, surpassed One Sword, and inherited Bai Yun’s legacy.
Lei Gang is dead! It’s hard to believe. He was the one most hopeful of comprehending Law.
The Wanderer leaders all looked at Jiang Chen. That was the Swordsman from the Continent of All-Gods. He had slain Lei Gang, a mighty Ninth-Stage Powerhouse.
Augustus looked shocked for a moment, then smiled. "That kid still had a trick up his sleeve."
"Lord Augustus, it seems Jiang Chen has received Bai Yun’s true legacy."
"That sword strike was stunningly brilliant, almost on par with Bai Yun himself."
"Indeed! Even Lei Gang is dead. That sword strike was truly fierce!"
Augustus shook his head. "He hasn’t just received Bai Yun’s legacy. He has grasped the Power of Laws and integrated it with the God Chopping Sword Drawing Technique to create a new Skill."
"Bai Yun’s was the Sword Principle, whereas his is the Law of Destruction."
"Though it was just a little, it was enough to take down Lei Gang."
"Unfortunately, he is a Swordsman of the Continent of All-Gods. It will be very difficult for him to ascend to Demigod or Divine in the future."
Augustus shook his head and sighed.
"Why?" someone asked.
Augustus remained silent.
How could ascending to a Divine be so easy? How many Demigods are there on the Continent of All-Gods? At least several million. But how many Divines? Just a few thousand. And Divines all pass down their legacy within Clans.
Li Mu was greatly surprised.
Jiang Chen has grown so much! Except for Divines, no one can be his opponent. It’s hard to believe that in just a few short months, he has become comparable to a Divine!
As the Heavenly Earth Association Leader, Li Mu couldn’t help but marvel at Jiang Chen’s strength.
Even if he were to face Jiang Chen, Li Mu wasn’t sure he could win. Especially that final sword strike; Li Mu knew he couldn’t have parried it.
At that moment, the Wanderers understood. That previous sword strike was not mere Skill, but the Power of Laws! That is Law which transcends all other power. To contend with it, only Law can prevail.
Er Xin approached, exclaiming, "Junior Brother, you are indeed formidable!"
Jiang Chen chuckled. "Hehe... A mere Lei Gang was no match for me."
At this very moment, Zhong Yuanju spoke loudly, "Everyone saw it, didn’t you? He is the Swordsman nurtured by the Continent of All-Gods, the greatest enemy of the Wanderers’ Alliance!"
"Haven’t you heard the legend? The Continent of All-Gods will raise a Swordsman who will drive out and annihilate all Wanderers!"
"This Swordsman is not yet fully developed. I suggest we all join forces to capture him and strangle him in the cradle!"
The others looked at Zhong Yuanju, then fell silent.
Why was the Life Alliance established? It was because they had heard the legend from the Continent of All-Gods. They formed the Life Alliance with the sole purpose of eliminating the Swordsman from the Continent of All-Gods. In their eyes, a Swordsman was a traitor to Wanderers, a class cultivated by the Continent of All-Gods specifically to counter Wanderers. As for that legend, no one had taken it seriously. But now, Lei Gang had died at the hands of the Swordsman. What did that imply? The legend was actually true!
At this moment, most of the Wanderers gripped their sword hilts.
It didn’t matter if Lei Gang died at the hands of a Wanderer, but he absolutely could not fall to one of the Continent of All-Gods’ Heroes, nor to a Swordsman!
Li Mu snorted coldly. "Zhong Yuanju, stop trying to sow discord! What legend? It’s merely your side of the story. If you’re capable, then step down and duel Jiang Chen one-on-one. Do you think we’re all fools?"
Li Mu had heard from his subordinates. It was Jiang Chen who had lifted the curse from their foreheads. It was Jiang Chen who had turned The Fallen into Wanderers, allowing them to live openly and honorably in the small worlds from then on, no longer needing to suffer hunger or torment. Li Mu was not the kind of person to forget such a debt.
Nangong Xin nodded. "Li Mu is right. Zhong Yuanju, stop your shouting. You have no right to speak here."
Zhong Yuanju demanded, "Li Mu of the Heavenly Earth Association, Nangong Xin of the Floating Association, it seems you’re determined to defend Jiang Chen! Have you forgotten your identities? Forgotten that you are Wanderers? Have you completely defected to the Continent of All-Gods?"
Li Mu snorted coldly. "Enough nonsense. If you want to fight, then fight. Why bother with all this useless talk?"
Li Mu turned and walked away. Nangong Xin did the same, turning to leave.
They couldn’t bring themselves to besiege Jiang Chen.
"Haha... Zhong Yuanju isn’t very strong, just spouts nonsense. Thinking he can rally Wanderers to attack Jiang Chen? What a complete moron."
"The legend? Just a petty trick by the Life Alliance."
"Li Mu and Nangong Xin are both Ninth-Stage Masters, powerhouses who have comprehended their Domains. If they joined forces, Jiang Chen might not be able to withstand them."
"Yes, besides Li Mu and Nangong Xin, there’s also the Chief of the Qianren Association, Qianren Xue. She’s also a Divine Domain expert."
"Would they dare? Don’t forget, Jiang Chen acquired the Heaven Cutting Swords Technique. He must be Bai Yun’s disciple. Aren’t they afraid Bai Yun would turn on them?"
Augustus smiled. "Actually, what the Life Alliance said is true."
The Divines under Augustus were greatly surprised.
What? The legend is true? Isn’t this just a petty trick of the Life Alliance? How is that possible?
Augustus continued, "This came from the mouth of a Divine Fortune Teller. The Fortune Teller might not seem to possess great abilities, but whatever he says becomes the future, as he commands the Prophecy Laws."
Augustus looked at Jiang Chen.
If Jiang Chen wishes to become a Divine, his mission is to slay the powerful among The Fallen. This has long been premeditated by the Continent of All-Gods; it is their grandest scheme. Why are Swordsmen so formidable? They too are part of the All Gods’ calculations. The Fallen must either submit to the All Gods or die. Those are the only two possibilities. And Jiang Chen is to become the Wanderers’ Sword God. The sole condition: the Sword God must submit to the All Gods... Once, the Continent of All-Gods tried to control Bai Yun, but the All Gods failed. In the end, Bai Yun comprehended the ultimate power, a force comparable to that of a Divine. And Jiang Chen? I fear he is also merely a pawn of the All Gods. As for his future choices, it all depends on how Jiang Chen himself chooses. Will he become a pawn of the All Gods, hunting down The Fallen? Or will he become an abandoned piece, like Bai Yun, renouncing the power of the Badge and realizing the strength of Wanderers’ True Qi?
As a True God, Augustus was quite familiar with the schemes of the Continent of All-Gods.
Zhong Yuanju drew his longsword. "For the Wanderers! For the Wanderers’ Alliance! Follow me and kill Jiang Chen! We absolutely cannot allow him to grow stronger!"
Zhong Yuanju slowly walked towards the city outskirts.
Jiang Chen was startled.
An Eighth-Stage Master? Is he here to seek death?
Then, the Elders of the Life Alliance also drew their longswords, fearless in the face of death...
Following them, a large group of Wanderers drew their longswords, fearless in the face of death...
