Chapter 651

?Chapter 651: Chapter 651: Chu Wujie_1 Chapter 651: Chapter 651: Chu Wujie_1 Shen Jianting controlled the four treasured swords, his voice deep as he bellowed, “With these four swords, I slay the azure sky!”

The four treasured swords immediately released their murderous aura autonomously, for they recognized Shen Jianting, resulting in a connection between his spirit and the swords, a shared understanding of intention.

Should he make a further breakthrough and comprehend the unity of sword and man, understanding the essence of the sword, his strength would surge by a great margin.

Under the influence of the stirring sword essence, Li Tianfan, who observed calmly from the treetop, was affected.

He caressed the Qing Shuang Sword in his arms that was wrapped in green cloth and trembling slightly, whispering comfortingly, “Xiao Qing, do you also want to join the fight?

Hehe, Shen Jianting, considering we are both sword Dao talents, I indeed find myself interested in a duel with you now.”

On the battlefield, both Luo Xiong and Shen Jianting had readied their ultimate moves; one was concentrating energy into two sword fingers from the thick thunderclouds, fiercely pressing towards the ground as if truly capable of shattering mountains and seas, while the other had four swords brimming with murderous aura and crisscrossed sword Qi.

Such might could only be exhibited by those proficient in superior martial arts techniques.

The onlookers were filled with anticipation.

However, a number of the elders’ faces turned pale in secret, recognizing they had been surpassed by the younger generation, the old waves dying on the beach.

Yet at this moment, an elder in a black and white Daoist robe suddenly appeared on the scene, his presence spry despite his age.

“Hold on.

Both of you are talents on the list of heroes, and even if you must fight, you shouldn’t choose such a time and place.

It would be regrettable to delay the opening of the ancient ruins.”

The Daoist robed elder made his move, landing in the spot where the energy sword fingers and the four treasured instruments were about to clash, speaking in a faint voice.

“It’s Chu Wujie!”

“It’s actually Chu Family’s Grand Elder Chu Wujie, an old Heavenly Venerable Realm powerhouse!”

“No wonder he dares to block these terrifying moves with his body, probably only he has the strength to halt this duel in such a manner.”

“…”

The combatants furrowed their eyebrows and hurriedly withdrew their moves, then cupped their fists towards Chu Wujie and gave each other a fierce glare.

In his youth, Chu Wujie was a legend, long occupying the top three spots on the list of heroes.

Now an elder, his strength had reached profoundly unfathomable levels, and his achievements in battle were staggering, having once defeated two Heavenly Venerables single-handedly.

Since Chu Wujie had stepped in to intervene, neither Shen Jianting nor Luo Xiong could afford to dismiss his presence.

The cancellation of the duel quickly restored the proper order to the scene.

This time, due to the opening of the Northern Territory Sovereign’s abode, all the young masters from the list of heroes had gathered, and it was inevitable that they would clash to distinguish the ranks among themselves.

Luo Xiong and Shen Jianting were merely the first to spring into action, with more such duels expected to follow.

The young masters of this generation in the Ancient Martial World were actually stronger than those of the previous generations, perhaps by a significant margin.

This was because they had encountered the opening of the Great Wilderness Immortal Realm, with each major power sparing no expense to cultivate their descendants.

The confrontation between Shen and Luo was but a peek into their level of strength.

?????.??

Luo Xiong returned to the side of his second uncle, Luo Yalu, his hands hidden in his sleeves, trembling slightly.

His second move was newly learned and he could barely execute it, resulting in a severe aftereffect of engorged blood in two of his fingers, which turned a frightful purple-black.

That was the consequence of showing off in front of the person he liked; however, from the start, he hadn’t anticipated that Shen Jianting’s strength would be on par with his, and he struggled to accept this at the moment.

In fact, during their engagement, both parties did not use their trump cards; otherwise, the spectacle of their exchange would have been even more terrifying and astonishing.

“Brother Chu, it’s been many years since we last met, and you still look remarkably spirited.”

“Brother Chu, it seems your strength has improved again?”

Chu Wujie’s appearance caught the attention of the elders from various major forces, all of whom came forward to greet him.

As the Grand Elder of the leading martial family in the Ancient Martial World, Chu Wujie’s strength was beyond question.

His arrival immediately made him the focal point, and he responded with a smile on his face.

“Everyone.”

Feeling that the time was almost upon them, Li Yunlei flew up into the mid-air, first saluting all around with clasped fists, then he declared loudly, “The Northern Border Ruins will open in fifteen minutes.

The entrance is quite narrow, so I ask everyone to enter in an orderly fashion when the time comes…”

However, more than half of the people present weren’t looking at him, engrossed in their own conversations and eagerly networking.

Most people were gathered around Chu Wujie.

If Shen Jianting’s master, Shi Jingshi, had been present, probably many would have surrounded him too.

However, Shi Jingshi had gone to Yundian Province to participate in the demon-slaying campaign, so it was his martial uncle, Shi Hongyun, who had recently been promoted to Heavenly Venerable and accompanied him.

Shi Hongyun’s strength and reputation were somewhat lesser in comparison.

The many Ancient Martial Artists who came to the Cangxue Mountain Range mostly aimed for the treasures within the ruins, with the heritage of the Northern Territory Sovereign as their primary objective.

Nevertheless, if they could take this opportunity to get acquainted with prominent figures and young supreme talents from various factions, that too was a very good thing, and so they were all busy making themselves known.

However, once they entered the ruins, the rules would change.

For the sake of treasure, it was common to turn on each other, and being familiar with one another would be useless.

Seeing that not many people were heeding his words, Li Yunlei’s expression became somewhat stiff.

The Flame Dragon Organization, as the organizer of this expedition, was responsible for maintaining order and should be the center of attention.

But Li Yunlei, as the highest-ranking representative of the Flame Dragon in this place, was incomparable to a figure like Chu Wujie, who surpassed him in power, fame, strength, and status.

Fortunately, this time Long Guhuang had invited a “true god” to assist.

Li Yunlei fell silent and, with a pleading look, turned his gaze toward Xu Fan.

The latter had intended to stay quiet, but since Li Yunlei needed his help and he was commissioned by Long Guhuang, Xu Fan thought it wouldn’t hurt to lend a hand.

After all, the Flame Dragon had always valued and treated him with friendship.

With this thought, Xu Fan, in silence, let an imposing aura unfold, sweeping across all directions.

“Silence!”

As soon as he spoke, it was as though thunder had struck, echoing through the mountains and fields.

The crowd was startled, and for some reason, a sense of dread arose without warning, their blood and qi roiling.

They couldn’t help but look up at the young figure standing next to Li Yunlei in the sky—Xu Fan.

Xu Fan’s voice was intentionally imbued with psychic power, amplifying the impact, making it difficult not to draw attention.

Chu Wujie’s brow furrowed slightly, and a flash of displeasure crossed his face.

With his hands behind his back, he let out a cold huff to show his dissatisfaction.

Yet, with his status, he did not take any further action.

Even though the Chu Family had high prestige and strong power, they still did not wish to clash directly with the Flame Dragon Organization.
