After Defying the Villain's Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!-Chapter 287
Although he had no leisure to care about the discussions of Zhang Hu and others, Jiang Chen still heard them clearly.
Then he was speechless.
He knew very well that he was not any Human Sacred Body!
The reason he could merge the Blood Sword, Phoenix Fire, and the ancient Way of the Sword was simply because of the system’s blessing, allowing him to use and master the three without the need for cultivation level, and because of a moment of inspiration.
Well…
Jiang Chen let out a sly smile.
Blaming the madness of the many cultivators on a “natural disaster” was indeed a clever idea.
Not bothering to care about these matters, he stood still, his face calm, but inside he was somewhat panicked.
He hadn’t expected that this self-created Ancient Swordsmanship had nearly drained all his spiritual energy.
If he wasn’t forcibly stabilizing his stance at this moment, he would have no choice but to collapse!
But the power of this self-created sword technique also far exceeded his imagination. Compared to the “Ancient Swordsmanship, First Form: Skybreaker,” its power was definitely much stronger!
Although it lacked the direct destructive power compared to the first form, the key was that it could change direction on its own!
At this moment, Sword Two and the others knew they couldn’t withstand this attack head-on, so they were scurrying about in panic.
And the fire dragon, as if it had its own intelligence, was relentlessly pursuing them from behind, occasionally spewing out scorching flames, causing Sword Two and the others to jump in pain.
Taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, Jiang Chen quietly popped a pill into his mouth, thinking to himself: ‘This sword technique shall be named “Ancient Swordsmanship, Second Form: Dragon’s Chant and Phoenix’s Cry”!’
“Boom!!”
“Boom!!”
A series of explosive sounds suddenly erupted.
Jiang Chen followed the noise and saw that Sword Two and the other sword disciples, in a bid to save their lives, were self-destructing their ancient swords, hoping to escape the pursuing fire dragon.
It had some effect… but not much…
Sword Two was the first to self-destruct his ancient sword.
Using the shockwave, he not only wanted to escape the fire dragon behind him but also planned to circle back and counterattack Jiang Chen!
The idea was good, but he overestimated his own strength.
Before he could act, Sword Two was struck in the face by the huge dragon tail.
As his body spun in the air, he immediately spat out three liters of blood.
Then, as luck would have it, he ended up kneeling on one knee right in front of Jiang Chen.
Sword Two looked up.
Jiang Chen looked down.
Jiang Chen: “…”
Sword Two: “…”
The two men’s eyes met, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
“Jiang Chen…” Sword Two began to speak, wanting to beg for mercy.
“I poke!” Jiang Chen thrust his sword.
Sword Two had no chance to escape nor the strength to do so.
He only felt a sharp pain in his chest as his heart was pierced by the blood sword.
“Jiang Chen, you will not die a good death!” Sword Two cursed before his death.
“Perhaps,” Jiang Chen coldly smiled as he looked at Sword Two’s corpse.
“but you won’t find dying that easy!”
With those words, he flipped his right hand.
In an instant, ghostly qi spread, chilling the air around.
Within the ghostly qi, a miniature version of the Ghost Tower appeared in his hand.
Jiang Chen operated his ghostly techniques, refining Sword Two’s soul, which had not yet dissipated, into a ghost, and finally locked it inside the Ghost Tower.

After finishing everything, Jiang Chen cast his gaze into the distance.
Under the pursuit of the fire dragon and the encirclement of the phoenix fire, the other prodigies didn’t last long either.
In less than a moment, many prodigies were collectively buried in the phoenix fire, and several sword disciples were directly pierced by the dragon claws of the fire dragon, barely clinging to life.
Although these people were not from the upper four realms, they were still rare sustenance for Jiushuang.
Taking advantage of their souls not yet dispersing, Jiang Chen threw out the Ghost Tower.
The Ghost Tower grew as it spun and then heavily smashed into the ground.
Jiang Chen operated his ghostly techniques again, and the souls of several prodigies were sucked into the Ghost Tower.
“This is the Ghost Controlling Sect’s sect-defining divine artifact, the Ghost Tower!” A Buddhist disciple saw this and instantly turned pale.
The Buddha Temple and the Ghost Controlling Sect were at odds, naturally recognizing that this tower was used to control and nurture ghosts.
They were very clear that if they were taken into the Ghost Tower, what awaited them was to become ghostly puppets!
“Amitabha, Jiang Chen, even in death, I will not succumb to your wishes!”
With that statement, there were several “bang” sounds as the Buddhist disciples of the Buddha Temple self-destructed en masse, their bodies and souls both perishing.
The sword disciples also had the idea to self-destruct, but they were a step too late, instantly perishing in the phoenix fire produced by the fire dragon, and then they too were collected by the Ghost Tower.

Finally, the battle came to an end.
Although it was called a great battle, Jiang Chen had only made one move from beginning to end.
But it was this one move that had slain a group of prodigies.
The cultivators who had survived the chaos of the sword formation by chance couldn’t help but swallow their saliva upon seeing this scene.
They were shocked by Jiang Chen’s combat power and even more so by his audacity!
The other prodigies were one thing, but Jiang Chen had killed all the Buddhist disciples of the Buddha Temple and many sword disciples of the Seven Luminaries Sword Pavilion, an act tantamount to piercing the heavens!
Although Jiang Chen had the Jiang family as his backing, this was the Central Domain, not the Upper Domain.
With the Imperial Dynasty’s laws in place, how could the Jiang family dare to enter the Central Domain in force to protect Jiang Chen?

Even if the Jiang family was fearless and dared to defy the Imperial Dynasty’s laws, what the Imperial Dynasty would do next was another matter, but don’t forget that both the Seven Luminaries Sword Pavilion and the Buddha Temple had ties with the powers of the Upper Domain!
When the time comes, it’s still uncertain who will fall.
Worried that Jiang Chen would eliminate them to prevent future troubles, the surrounding cultivators dared not stay any longer and rushed towards the exit of the Mysterious Ice Realm.
They all secretly decided that once they left, they would report Jiang Chen’s actions, as well as the fact that he was a Human Sacred Body, to their sects.
These matters were of great importance, and if they could bring out the news, it would also count as a contribution.
Seeing what these people were thinking, Nangong Jiuxi went with her sword, intending to kill everyone.
However, Jiang Chen suddenly appeared and blocked her path.
“They must die, otherwise you will have a hard time in the Central Domain!” Nangong Jiuxi didn’t understand.
“This is unavoidable,” Jiang Chen shook his head.
“Some spectators have already left the secret realm, even if you kill them, it won’t make a difference.”
Nangong Jiuxi fell silent.
She suddenly realized that she might have dragged Jiang Chen down.
If it weren’t for her chasing after Su Shan and getting injured, Jiang Chen wouldn’t have helped her seek revenge, and naturally, he wouldn’t have ended up in this situation.
“…was I wrong?” Nangong Jiuxi asked.
“Jiuxi, right and wrong are not always so clear in this world,” Jiang Chen sighed.
“Perhaps your biggest mistake was meeting me.”
Nangong Jiuxi fell silent again.
She didn’t understand, but she could feel Jiang Chen’s helplessness.
For a moment, she stood there, stunned.
Jiang Chen didn’t know what else to say and went to where Su Shan was.
At this moment, Su Shan was still lying on the ground, his eyes vacant.
Although he didn’t move, he could sense the death of his Junior Brothers.
Seeing Jiang Chen approaching, he just softly said, “Kill me…”
Jiang Chen didn’t respond. He simply dropped a healing pill next to him and left.
In his previous nine lives, he had a decent relationship with Su Shan. Basically, whenever they met, they would fight, each with their own victories and defeats.
But in this life, Jiang Chen suddenly realized.
Although this Su Shan was also influenced by the heavens and extremely displeasing to him, he has always adhered to his true nature and is indeed a true gentleman of the righteous path.
