Who is Su Chen? What hardships and pain, what struggles between life and death, what desperate situations has he not experienced? What's this little difficulty?
He continued to persist. To try.
Time passed, breath by breath.
The entire Qing Jian Tomb grew more and more oppressive.
At this moment.
It had been about thirty breaths since Yuaan Suifeng started looking for Su Chen.
Yuaan Suifeng was like a towering giant demon, spanning the heavens and the earth, casting shadows across the sky. His eyes were like those of an eagle, filled with violence, murderous intent, pride, confidence, and fierceness.
Every time his gaze shifted, the air emitted a harsh hissing sound, and where his gaze passed, it was as if accompanied by thunder and lightning.
Inside Qing Jian Tomb, countless swordsmen didn't dare to breathe loudly, cowering their heads, terrified that Yuaan Suifeng might destroy them on a whim if he got upset.
Indeed, Yuaan Suifeng was not in a good mood.
After obtaining the legacy of the Heavy Sword Emperor!!!
His strength soared, his confidence soared too, believing that after his proclamation, Su Chen would be so frightened that he'd wet himself, then appear before him, begging him.
But the reality was, Su Chen seemed deaf, completely still, completely ignoring him!
Yuaan Suifeng felt like he had punched a cotton ball heavily.
Suffocating.
Utterly suffocating.
He wanted to find Su Chen as quickly as possible, then tear this damned, ungrateful little bastard to pieces.
Su Chen was immersed in the satisfaction and surprise of fusing the Sword Rhyme with the Chaotic Current, yet his steps didn't falter, as if taking a stroll, walking step by step in Qing Jian Tomb.
He didn't deliberately conceal or hide himself.
Therefore, soon, someone discovered his traces.
The swordsman who discovered him was extremely nervous, unable to speak, staring at Su Chen from afar, following him…
More and more swordsmen discovered Su Chen.
There was no choice, as Qing Jian Tomb wasn't that big, and Su Chen's calm and leisurely steps were like flaunting in the market, hard not to notice.
Soon enough.
Forty breaths.
Fifty breaths.
Sixty breaths.
Seventy breaths.
...
Time swiftly flowed by.
The entire Qing Jian Tomb's atmosphere became more solidified, more rigid.
Shen Yiyao grew more and more anxious. Su Chen, where exactly are you?!!!
Meanwhile, Yuaan Suifeng was circling in the sky, searching patiently, sweeping over each place, getting closer and closer to Su Chen's location.
Suddenly.
"Su Chen. Why aren't you hiding?" A crisp voice brought the immersed Su Chen back from the fusion with the Chaotic Current.
Su Chen first smiled.
Very satisfied.
The effect wasn't bad.
Just now, he managed to do it; it took about sixty to seventy breaths to barely allow the Chaotic Current to blend a little into the Sixth Stage Sword Rhyme, an astounding efficiency.
Later, when Yuaan Suifeng arrived, he would be able to enjoy the power of the fusion of Sixth Stage Sword Rhyme and Chaotic Current. Speaking of which, Su Chen was quite looking forward to it.
Then.
Su Chen lifted his head and looked toward the source of the voice.
A little girl~~~
Hmm.
She might look like a young girl, but actually, this woman was already two to three hundred years old, just a bit younger than Shen Yiyao.
This woman did indeed look enough like a young girl, especially with her jet-black pigtails and eyes big enough to seem like she was wearing colored contact lenses, embodying the young girl~~~ style to the extreme.
And along with that short skirt and silk stockings.
No matter how you looked, she seemed so pure.
The woman's appearance wasn't quite as striking as Shen Yiyao's, but still scored about 93 or 94 out of 100.
If not held to Shen Yiyao's standard, this woman was also exceptionally beautiful.
"Who are you?" Su Chen gave her a once-over, asking calmly.
"Do you still have time to worry about who I am? If I were you, I'd be thinking of a way to hide quickly; Yuaan Suifeng is coming." The woman continued, her voice seemingly tinged with a slight sense of urgency.
"You're worried about me?" Su Chen responded playfully. Interesting, a little girl he didn't even know showing concern for him? Could it be his charm had grown to such a level?
"Just don't want to see a genius fall prematurely, that's all." The woman snorted, "If you're not appreciative, then forget it."
In her large, black eyes, a trace of disappointment flashed.
She admitted that she did have a slight affection for Su Chen, or perhaps it was admiration.
Not even twenty-eight years old, at the realm of Fixed Character Eternal Domain, capable of instantly defeating Zheng Ci and Liu Kuo, Su Chen was dazzling, as if wearing a halo.
She couldn't help having a bit of a girl's crush.
It's like a school where a reasonably good-looking classmate, who spends his days playing basketball, gaming, not studying hard, and younger than most classmates, nonetheless gets first place in every exam, often finishing early.
Naturally, it attracts the attention of female classmates.
Human nature.
To Zhao Lingxi, Su Chen was like that; she admired and was curious about him, nothing too complicated.
Because of this, she didn't want Su Chen to die at Yuaan Suifeng's hands; she was quite curious about how terrifying Su Chen could become in the future? What miracles could he create?
Regrettably, Su Chen disappointed her; he didn't understand when to advance or retreat.
With such stunning, monstrous, incredible talent for martial cultivation, why not cherish it? Why not value his life?
Now, with Yuaan Suifeng having acquired the legacy of the Sword Emperor and currently riding high with rapidly increasing power... shouldn't he be lying low, avoiding confrontation? Even if he loses face, living on is what matters, right?
With Su Chen's talent, just surviving for a year might eclipse Yuaan Suifeng, at which point, could then strike back, wouldn't that be better?
A genius can only truly boast and be confident once grown and able to fulfill their potential.
Yet Su Chen, despite not even being fully developed, displays 'proud spirit' and a 'fearless' attitude, which is foolish.
Such foolishness could cost him his life.
Truly disappointing for her.
"Hmm, this girl seems very much like the Yuan'er from back then," Su Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, marveling to himself.
Back then, Xiao Yuan had the Heavenly Yin Body but hadn't fully activated it. Without full activation, a good Heavenly Yin Body became a Life-Claiming Physique.
If not for Su Chen's memories of his past life, plus some fortuitous encounters that eventually helped Xiao Yuan, perhaps Xiao Yuan would have died from his unactivated Heavenly Yin Body.
And the girl in front of him was similar, though not possessing a Heavenly Yin Body, she had another special physique, also not activated, thus facing life and death risks at any moment, like Xiao Yuan back then.
Moreover, this girl's background and backing must be immensely powerful, or else she would have already perished, with someone using overwhelmingly strong Mysterious Qi Force to dissipate the energy within her body at intervals forcibly.
Unfortunately, this is a temporary fix.
In the long run, this girl would still die.
