Old Enemies
“Haha! Jiang Chen, you think you can kill me with your own strength? Aren’t you being too naïve? If I were you, I would have hastened to get out of here, or else you would never have a chance to leave again. This is my territory. I can move as freely as a fish moving in water here. You are no match for me.”
Nanbei Chao laughed aloud. As arrogant as he was, he still didn’t put Jiang Chen in his eyes. Given his cultivation base, he was strong enough to fight Jiang Chen. Even if he couldn’t, it would be impossible for Jiang Chen to kill him in his home ground.
“Really? You won’t know it until we try it.”
Jiang Chen’s killing intent rose, his Heavenly Saint Sword turning into a jet of light, slas.h.i.+ng at Nanbei Chao’s direction. In the face of his mortal enemy, there was virtually nothing to talk about, and only offense was the best course of action.
Both of them had experienced too many clashes and each time, they wanted nothing more than to kill the enemy. Naturally this time wasn’t an exception.
“Humph! Jiang Chen, don’t you push too far. You’re not sure who will emerge victorious. As your Sun Divine Feather has already been taken away by Xiao w.a.n.gqing, you have lost your biggest reliance.”
Nanbei Chao harrumphed coldly and launched a fist violently at Jiang Chen’s sword. Although he had been in hiding to recuperate, he was crystal clear about what was going on outside, such as the things that happened in Ethereal Immortal Domain, and that Jiang Chen had lost the Sun Divine Feather. Therefore, he didn’t have the slightest bit of fear when he encountered Jiang Chen.
*Hong Long……*
The violent combat force had stirred the turbulent current in the s.p.a.ce, setting off violent waves everywhere. Layers of the void had been shattered. Fortunately, this spatial zone was created by a Great Sovereign, otherwise, such a battle would surely tear apart the pa.s.sageway that connected the spatial zone to the outside world.
*Deng! Deng! Deng!*
Nanbei Chao retreated three steps backwards, his face somewhat unpleasant. As his injuries hadn’t fully healed yet and Jiang Chen reaching the peak of early Immortal Emperor realm, he was no match for Jiang Chen even if he used his most powerful attack.
“Jiang Chen, I’m not going to waste my time with you now, but I can a.s.sure you that you will die in this place. You really shouldn’t have come here.”
Nanbei Chao’s tone was extremely arrogant. His desire to kill Jiang Chen had transcended anything, however he still chose not to be entangled in battle against Jiang Chen. Firstly, he might suffer some losses if such a battle continued. Secondly, he had come here for the treasures at the centre of the spatial zone, after being summoned by the remains of the Great Sovereign. The source that summoned him became clearer after he entered the remains. In his opinion, as long he found the things that belonged to him, he would be able to eliminate all things that inhibit his path. Jiang Chen would surely be the first to die.
After he finished speaking, he escaped into the depths of the turbulent s.p.a.ce in a flash.
“Humph! Want to escape?”
Jiang Chen harrumphed coldly, making another slash with the Heavenly Saint Sword. With the Great Soul Derivation Technique and Great Void Technique combined, it had become difficult for Nanbei Chao to outrun Jiang Chen.
*Hua La……*
Horrifying sword qi intertwined to form an enormous net, stopping Nanbei Chao completely.
Out of helplessness, Nanbei Chao could only put up a struggling resistance.
*Hong Long……*
The turbulent current was in total disorder, but the spatial zone still seemed as solid, not showing any signs of breaking.
“Dammit!”
Nanbei Chao swore angrily, but still, he chose to flee again. He could only nurse the indignation inside of him for now, he was being hunted by a figure who was once as weak as an insect to him. Putting aside the time when he was almost eradicated by Jiang Chen’s Sun Divine Feather, this was his second time being pursued by Jiang Chen. In his point of view, this would be the burning shame in his life.
However, there were no other way for him other than to flee. It would consume his time and he wouldn’t be able to gain any advantage if he confronted Jiang Chen, but judging from his current situation, it definitely wouldn’t be easy to get rid of Jiang Chen.
“Haha! Nanbei Chao, I’ll make you run like a homeless cur today!”
Jiang Chen laughed aloud as he continued to brandish out terrifying sword light from his sword, throwing Nanbei Chao into a disorderly state. Whether he could kill Nanbei Chao or not, such a way of pursuing his enemy was extremely addicting. What he wanted to see the most was to crush Nanbei Chao’s confidence. He must trample this arrogant enemy under his leg.
“Jiang Chen, sooner or later, I’m going to trample you violently under my feet, and make you eat sh*t!”
Nanbei Chao bellowed while fleeing frantically. It was humiliating that he, the brilliant and all-powerful expert, was being hunted by someone today.
There was no way that he wouldn’t hate Jiang Chen. Aside from the past grudges, no one would’ve noticed his presence in this expedition if it wasn’t for Jiang Chen, and he would’ve been able to find the things he needed easily. Even those peerless Venerables had less than 1% of familiarity of this place compared to him.
“Really? We’ll see who will eat sh*t.”
Jiang Chen’s combat strength was unparalleled. He cast out the Great Void Technique once more, doubling his speed, catching up with Nanbei Chao in a blink. His killing intent was surging rapidly. At this moment, he stowed away the Heavenly Saint Sword.
*Roar……*
The sound of a dragon’s roar rippled in the air, tearing apart the turbulent current in the void. There was an icy cold killing intent within the chaotic s.p.a.ce. All the killing intent seemed to be solidifying, forming into indestructible swords.
The Slaughter Dragon Seal was Jiang Chen greatest technique, and also his most powerful attack. It had integrated the heavenly might of Nine Tribulations of Slaughter. This bone-penetrating killing intent would surely make people’s soul shudder.
The ruthless eyes of the dragon locked on Nanbei Chao and charged madly at him.
“Son of a b*tch!”
Nanbei Chao’s facial expression changed dramatically. He had never thought that Jiang Chen would grow to such an extent. Back when he first met Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen couldn’t even stand a blow of his, and was almost killed by him. How long had it been? Jiang Chen had actually outgrown him, and this was without the use of the Sun Divine Feather. This was a huge blow to his pride and self-esteem.
