Chapter 1274: Golden Lightning

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Formation breaking could test a formation master’s skill, and Zhuge Fu admitted that he was inferior to Jiang Chen. Now, however, he was gambling with the Zhuge family’s honor, and so he set the great formation passed down for generations in the Zhuge family. Zhuge Fu was using his predecessors’ wisdom to compete against Jiang Chen and prove how amazing his Zhuge family was. It was uncertain whether such a formation scared Jiang Chen, but it certainly scared the spectators.

It seemed as if the formation had been formed by combining the spiritual power of all the Water Spirits, which possessed a boundless might. As a matter of fact, this was really the case. This enormous spiritual power turned the sky into a sea that engulfed Jiang Chen, as well as the several people fighting against him.

All four of those people were fighting intensely and were frightened by this sudden occurrence. However, delight quickly appeared on Yao Zhiyan’s face. He didn’t feel threatened at all in the water, and its boundless spiritual power was even surging into his body. Even though he was a half-monster, his fighting prowess still rose greatly due to its spiritual power. This was also the case for Tian Weiyi and Shui Wuchen, especially the latter who was a Water Spirit. He took to the formation like a fish to water.

In contrast to them, Jiang Chen was greatly restricted. He was experiencing what the Blood Emperor must have felt when he was restrained by Jiang Chen’s Buddhist Light. When the fight started once again, Jiang Chen felt like he was in imminent danger.

“It isn’t interesting now.”

“Nothing can be done about this. After all, this is the Water Spirit Clan’s major affair.”

The spectators couldn’t enjoy the fight any longer. If Jiang Chen ended up dead like this, it wouldn’t be spectacular at all. Instead, it would be frustrating. The Water Spirit Clan hadn’t stated that it would demonstrate to the crowd a great battle, and their actions were understandable.

“Quickly, look over there.”

When everyone assumed that Jiang Chen didn’t have any hope left, they discovered that another Jiang Chen had appeared at a lower altitude. As some people recalled the skill of Jiang Chen’s magical clones, expectation appeared in their eyes, and it wasn’t difficult for them to discern that Jiang Chen was trying to break the formation.

Zhuge Fu, who was in the town, had expected this. Last time, Jiang Chen had depended upon his magical clone to break the formation, while his main body faced Shui Wuchen.

“This is the fruit of my ancestors’ work, and it is ranked third among the ten great formations. You can look down on me. But you mustn’t look down on my Zhuge family,” Zhuge shouted. Zhuge Fu really wanted to see what Jiang Chen could do. This formation was completely different than the one in the mountain range, and it couldn’t be dealt with by just tearing open a little gap. He must destroy it thoroughly to deal with it.

“It is you who is insulting the Zhuge family,” Jiang Chen said, as he charged into the formation.

“Humph, let’s see how you will…” Zhuge Fu was quite confident and wanted to start a great confrontation between formation masters with Jiang Chen. But, before he finished his speech, his expression changed drastically. “Wait…wait for a moment!” As Zhuge Fu witnessed Jiang Chen’s actions, his mind was left reeling. It was as if he had just prepared a riddle game meticulously. And then it turned out that Jiang Chen knew long ago what his hidden cards were.

Jiang Chen acted as skillfully in the formation as if he was in his own home, and he was teleporting around in the formation. The boundless spiritual power started becoming unstable, and the ocean in the sky started falling down. As splashing sounds echoed all around, the small town was overwhelmed by a deluge, and all its houses were engulfed by water. As for the Water Dragon Black Guards, who were the formation’s energy source, they were all shaken and injured.

“Ksana Sword Method: the Fourth Move!”

Jiang Chen’s main body, which had been restrained by the formation, used a sword move and targeted Yao Zhiyan, who was the weakest among his opponents. “Awful!” Yao Zhiyan felt a grave sense of danger that he was quite powerless in the face of.

Jiang Chen’s sword move was launched in the blink of an eye, and since he had already become a Martial Emperor, his Ksana Sword Method didn’t leave something as simple as 100 sword scars on Yao Zhiyan’s body. Yao Zhiyan’s body was thoroughly erased and not even a single drop of blood was left of him.

Upon witnessing such a sight, Tian Weiyi, who was also fighting, sneered. If it had been him facing such a sword move, he would surely have been unable to block it. But he had a divine armor and could still defend against it.

“General Wuchen, please use your whole power so that this guy can’t continue committing more crimes.” Shui Zhener flew up into the sky and replaced Yao Zhiyan, as she spoke with her clansman. Even though she spoke in a calm tone, an odd expression had appeared on Shui Wuchen’s face. Shui Wuchen had been holding back some of his power. But he was doing it well, and it was difficult to discern. He didn’t expect that Shui Zhener would notice it! What a scary woman!

Shui Wuchen couldn’t help but recall his previous impressions of Shui Zhener, and, as he compared them with the current Shui Zhener, he felt like they were two completely different people. Shui Zhener still had a face like an angel. But this only made people fear her more.

“Jiang Chen, pay for your crimes with your life,” Shui Zhener shouted sharply and raised a long sword.

Upon witnessing that sword, Jiang Chen’s expression changed drastically. This was a Mysterious Ice Sword, and both its hilt and blade seemed naturally formed. It was so pretty that it didn’t seem like a weapon! This sword was Ye Xue’s sword, and Shui Zhener was trying to provoke him on purpose.

Jiang Chen pulled out the Red Cloud Sword and charged toward Shui Zhener. “Don’t look down on me.” Shui Zhener had great power, and she was stronger than even Shui Wuchen. Plus, she had become even stronger after she got Ye Xue’s Supreme Venerable Spirit Heart. Boundless spiritual power surged out of her, and the town’s temperature immediately descended into the freezing point.

“Sky-Burning Anger!” The Red Cloud Sword didn’t just have an Alien Flame and the Solar Golden Flame, it also had the Immortal Sword Spirit. After Jiang Chen had familiarized himself with his Martial Dais, he became able to achieve such a feat. Jiang Chen thrust his sword without using any sword moves. However, its might was still greater than any sword moves, and this ice-cold land was engulfed by torrid heat once again. The collision of flames and ice would obviously give rise to a great disturbance.

“Cut him!” When the energy was about to erupt, Shui Wuchen attacked suddenly with his full power. He didn’t treat Jiang Chen leniently any longer!

“Seven Stars Heavenly Sea!” Tian Weiyi also attacked, and his Seven Stars Sword’s divine power erupted and caused the world to descend into darkness. It seemed like the seven pearls on his sword became true stars.

The spectators, who were observing such a fight from a distance, were frightened by it and they all hugged themselves subconsciously. After the first collision, a sharp wind started whistling, and it seemed as if it rivaled charging ferocious beasts. It forced all the Martial Emperors present to retreat. This was the case even though the Martial Emperors already had kept a long distance away from the battlefield. It was really hard to believe that the shock waves possessed such great destructive power.

Both Jiang Chen’s back and belly suffered under his enemies’ attacks, and he should have ended up heavily injured. However, when Tian Weiyi and Shui Wuchen had just started attacking him, the magical clone came over to save him. Jiang Chen flew back to back with the magical clone, and they crossed the crisis together.

“You will be the next one.” The magical clone’s gaze locked into Tian Weiyi, and he held in his palm lightning, which could go out of control at any time. The magical clone used a Foot Apart World Technique and teleported in front of Tian Weiyi and thrust his palm at his heart. The lightning ball took a pointed shape, and it seemed like a sharp dagger.

“Ignorant!” Tian Weiyi laughed in mockery. He was now wearing the divine armor, and his instinct was informing him clearly that he didn’t need to worry about Jiang Chen’s attack. However, his instincts also shortly detected a grave danger, and when he lowered his head to take a look, he discovered that the lightning in Jiang Chen’s right hand was engulfed by a golden layer, and the flickering lightning arcs took a golden color.

“Golden Lightning!”

Tian Weiyi quickly waved the Seven Stars Sword to block such a strike. But Jiang Chen’s right hand avoided the sword agilely, and he still thrust his hand at Tian Weiyi’s chest. An ear-piercing sound echoed then, as Jiang Chen’s five fingers penetrated the divine armor, and he thrust them into Tian Weiyi’s body.

Fresh blood was flowing through the divine armor, as well as through Jiang Chen’s fingers. However, it still was limited to just this alone, because, even though Jiang Chen managed to penetrate Tian Weiyi’s breastbone, he didn’t manage to injure his heart. When Jiang Chen was about to release the golden lightning to destroy his opponent’s throbbing heart, Tian Weiyi used a divine technique to stave off Jiang Chen.
