Chapter 1309 Purple Ying Sword, Divine Weapon Resurrected
Chi Chi Chi!
The sword light seemed to cleave the void, revealing an incredibly deep rift that appeared to connect to the underworld, making it too dangerous to look directly at, lest one's soul fall into it.
A wave of energy, seemingly capable of crushing the heavens and earth, emanated from the purple greatsword, filling a vast expanse of void and causing all living beings within a hundred miles to tremble, as if they were facing a Nascent Soul level expert.
"It's actually a divine weapon. No wonder it could sever my physical body," Chen Yang said calmly.
His words shocked everyone present, who could not believe that the sword in Jian Chen's hand was a divine weapon.
It should be noted that no divine weapons or artifacts have ever appeared in the secular world to this day.
Whether it's Chen Yang's Sun, Moon and Stars Greatsword, Shennong's Fire Cauldron, Odin's Eternal Spear, or Thor's Mjolnir, they are all sacred weapons and artifacts.
When Thor's hammer was intact, it gave birth to nine golden holy marks, which were closest to becoming a divine weapon. Once the nine golden holy marks were condensed into a single purple-gold divine mark, it could be transformed into a divine weapon.
It's easy to imagine how rare divine weapons are.
How extraordinary is the creation of a divine weapon?
At this moment, a divine weapon appeared in Jian Chen's hand, which truly broadened Chen Yang's horizons.
Normally, a great divine weapon should at least be the sword of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Even a Golden Core cultivator is only qualified to use a Great Dao Sacred Weapon.
The fact that Jian Chen, a mere late-stage Divine Realm cultivator, possesses a divine weapon indicates that the Shu Mountain Sword Sect dotes on him excessively, or rather, values him too highly. They feared he might encounter mishaps during his trials in the mortal world, so they gave him a divine weapon for protection.
However, his cultivation level was ultimately too low to unleash the full power of the divine weapon. Moreover, using the divine weapon was extremely taxing on him.
Even ordinary Golden Core cultivators would find it somewhat difficult to wield a divine weapon of the Great Dao.
Therefore, Jian Chen must finish this battle quickly; the longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for him.
This is the main reason why he chose to launch a sneak attack.
"Indeed, you can recognize divine weapons, which shows your knowledge far surpasses that of these ordinary cultivators. Originally, I didn't want to kill you, because it was unnecessary. It's truly remarkable that such a powerful being as you could be born in the mortal world; it must have exhausted the entire fortune of the mortal world. But you shouldn't have killed so many of my immortal sect's geniuses. I brought them out, but I didn't bring them back. I can't explain this to their sects. Unless, I bring your head back." Jian Chen said coldly, a murderous aura surging from his body, soaring straight into the sky.
His cultivation level had reached an astonishing late stage of the Divine Realm, and with the addition of a divine weapon, he could defeat even those at the Great Perfection of the Divine Realm, those half-step Golden Core stage. He could even put up a fight against those at the Golden Core stage.
"You possess a divine weapon, yet you still resort to sneak attacks, which shows that you are still afraid of me and lack confidence in your victory," Chen Yang sneered, as dazzling golden rays burst forth from his body, enveloping him entirely.
The wound on his shoulder was healing rapidly.
"Afraid of you? You're overthinking it. I just want to finish this in one fell swoop and don't want to waste too much time on you. Since I can't kill you in one move, I'll kill you fair and square." Jian Chen said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the other man followed the sword and slashed out with another sword.
His figure vanished from his spot in an instant, as if he had disappeared into the void, and reappeared a moment later, only a hundred meters away from Chen Yang.
"cut!"
A dazzling sword light tore through the sky, like an ancient lightning bolt, slicing through the heavens with unparalleled sharpness.
That sword strike was absolutely stunning!
If it were anyone else, they wouldn't have had the right to dodge.
Chen Yang took out the Sun, Moon and Stars Greatsword, met it with sword, and slashed out with all his might.
Three golden holy marks were also born within the Great Sword of Sun, Moon and Stars, which are third-grade holy items and are rare treasures in the mortal world.
However, for a third-grade holy weapon to transform into a divine weapon, it still needs at least six golden holy marks, which is far inferior to Jian Chen's Purple Ying Sword.
Clang!
The Greatsword of Sun, Moon and Stars also unleashed a sharp sword beam, accompanied by the strange phenomena of the sun, moon and stars. However, as soon as it collided with the sword beam of the Purple Ying Sword, it crumbled into pieces, as if an egg had hit a rock.
Chen Yang quickly dodged, and the purple sword light swept past him, cleaving a mountain beneath his feet in two, from the mountaintop all the way down to the foot of the mountain.
The sword mark was straight, and the cut surface was as smooth as a mirror.
Just then, Chen Yang clenched his right fist and charged towards Jian Chen, throwing a punch.
The opponent has powerful weapons and has an advantage in ranged attacks.
In terms of close combat, Chen Yang was confident that he could kill Jian Chen instantly.
Sure enough, as soon as he saw Chen Yang charging towards him with a fist clenched, Jian Chen immediately dodged and dashed away to a distance of several hundred meters.
Clang clang!
Next, Jian Chen repeated the same method, using the advantages of the divine weapon to make a strike and then move to a different spot.
In no time, Chen Yang was struck by several swords, and his body was slashed with several wounds.
Although his Xuanhuang Dao Body was at the half-stage of completion, making him nearly immortal—able to quickly regenerate even if his arms and legs were severed—the opponent's divine weapon, the Ziying Sword, was incredibly sharp, and his half-stage Xuanhuang Dao Body simply couldn't withstand it.
Unless his Xuanhuang Dao Body can truly reach its peak, he will be able to withstand the damage from the divine weapon.
However, no one noticed that a storm was brewing in Jian Chen's heart, and he was extremely shocked.
Chen Yang's physical strength far exceeded his expectations.
Those sword strikes he just unleashed would have killed an ordinary god-level expert long ago, their body torn to pieces.
However, Chen Yang only had a few wounds on his body, and the wounds were far from fatal and would heal quickly.
He was already finding it difficult to wield the Purple Ying Sword, as each strike was extremely taxing on his body.
"cut!"
Jian Chen gripped the Purple Ying Sword tightly with both hands and launched another attack, charging towards Chen Yang.
Holding the Sun, Moon and Stars Greatsword, Chen Yang instantly transformed into an unparalleled swordsman.
Bang bang bang!
Dang Dang Dang!
After a fierce exchange, Chen Yang was once again at a disadvantage, with bloody gashes appearing all over his body.
The reason for this is twofold: firstly, the opponent's divine weapon is far too sharp, far surpassing his own holy greatsword.
Secondly, his Yuan Dan was sealed, so the amount of true essence he could use was limited.
This is equivalent to him sealing away most of his power.
Fortunately, he noticed that Jian Chen's sword-wielding movements were getting slower and more labored, and he was even panting heavily.
Clearly, with his limited divine realm cultivation, he couldn't handle this divine weapon.
However, Chen Yang did not have this weakness when using the Sun, Moon and Stars Greatsword. He became more and more ferocious as the battle progressed, and every strike he made was powerful and heavy.
Boom!
Another clash of greatswords, and both men were forced back a hundred meters.
Although Chen Yang had bloodstains on his body, his steps were steady.
In contrast, Jian Chen's body trembled slightly, and even the hand holding the sword was shaking.
"It's useless, you can't defeat me. You're only at the late stage of the Divine Realm, it's too much for you to use this divine weapon. If you can't win quickly, the divine weapon will only become a burden, and may even exhaust your blood and true essence. My physical body is comparable to the Golden Core Body. In pure physical combat, I can kill you instantly. Even if you have a Great Dao Divine Weapon, you are not qualified to kill me." Chen Yang said coldly, not caring at all about the bloodstains on his body.
The Greatsword of Sun, Moon, and Stars seemed to sense its master's emotions, emitting a soft, melodious ringing. As its master's fighting spirit rose, it grew increasingly powerful. Unlike before, when it was filled with fear towards the Purple Ying Sword in Jian Chen's hand.
"Is that so? You're that confident in yourself? The power of a divine weapon is beyond your imagination. Even if I can't unleash its full power, it'll still kill you like a chicken!" Jian Chen said coldly to Chen Yang, his eyes indifferent, completely unaffected by Chen Yang's words.
Zhengzhengzheng!
Buzz!
The Purple Ying Divine Weapon suddenly emitted a deafening clang in his hand, and the blade vibrated violently, as if the inner spirit of the weapon was being awakened.
In an instant, an incomparably terrifying aura erupted from the Purple Ying Divine Weapon.
Sacred weapons are already capable of giving birth to weapon spirits. At the level of divine weapons, the weapon spirits that are born possess a certain degree of self-awareness and are able to autonomously attack enemies.
Through the communication device, one can control the divine weapon more flexibly and freely.
As a divine weapon, the Purple Ying Sword obviously has its own weapon spirit, but Jian Chen did not awaken the weapon spirit in the previous battle.
Because the price of awakening the spirit is extremely high, his full head of black hair instantly turned grayish-white, and the skin on his face was no longer smooth and delicate, but turned waxy yellow, greatly diminishing his appearance.
"Brother Jianchen, are you alright?" Bing Ling'er asked anxiously, almost in tears.
"What's there to cry about? It was clearly your Kunlun Immortal Sect that bullied us first, killing so many people from our mortal world. Even if my master killed your Brother Jian Chen, wasn't that justified? This is called good triumphing over evil!" Wu Yan'er retorted.
"You... humph!"
Bing Ling'er was so angry that her face turned pale.
If there hadn't been so many people on the other side, she would have rushed up and slapped Wu Yan'er across the face.
boom!
At this moment, a vast and powerful pressure enveloped the sky for hundreds of miles, causing the entire Cloud Mist Mountain range to tremble. It was as if a Nascent Soul cultivator had personally arrived.
thump! thump!
One by one, the martial arts experts who had been watching knelt on the ground. The oppressive aura was so overwhelming that they couldn't even lift their heads; it was truly terrifying.
"Has the divine weapon been fully revived? That's terrifying."
"It seems this prodigy from the Kunlun Immortal Sect is getting serious. Can Chen Tianren withstand it?"
……
Everyone present was utterly stunned.
When the Great Dao Divine Weapon is activated at full power, its strength rivals that of a Nascent Soul cultivator making a move.
And what kind of existence is a Nascent Soul cultivator?
Let alone a mountain, a continent, or a planet, even an entire star field could be trampled underfoot by a Nascent Soul cultivator. Those are truly capable of traversing the interstellar universe.
"Boy, you've made me unleash the full power of this divine weapon. Even if I die, I can be proud of it," Jian Chen said angrily.
As soon as he finished speaking, the dazzling sword light emanating from the Purple Ying Divine Weapon in his hand cascaded down towards Chen Yang like a waterfall.
The waterfall-like sword light instantly transformed into a sword domain—no, it should be called a sword realm, because the sword domain was full of vitality, with sun, moon, mountains, rivers, flowers, birds, insects, fish, and lakes, just like a miniature world.
Everything in this small world is formed from condensed sword energy, lifelike and vivid.
This is a Dao Fruit that can only be unleashed when one has mastered the Dao of the sword to an extremely high level.
At this moment, Jian Chen's sword cleaved open a sword realm, which was not entirely his own achievement, but also due to the Purple Ying Sword.
As he unleashed his sword strike, a phantom figure a hundred feet tall appeared, standing proudly behind him, clad in purple-gold armor, like a war god descending from the heavens to the mortal realm.
It was the sword spirit of the Purple Ying Sword.
This sword spirit was probably a Nascent Soul cultivator in life. After death, it sacrificed its soul to the Purple Ying Sword and became its sword spirit.
As Jian Chen swung his sword down, the great sword spirit also took control of the sword realm, pressing down on Chen Yang.
The explosion of the Sword Realm is comparable in power to a nuclear explosion, enough to destroy a city with a population of ten million; its power is by no means ordinary.
At that moment, everyone present stared wide-eyed, their hearts pounding in their throats.
Because of this one sword strike, Chen Yang might very well perish.
boom!
The purple sword light stirred up the chaos in the sky, and a huge rift in the void formed in the blink of an eye. Countless ghostly winds blew out from it, accompanied by extremely terrifying fragments of space, and swept towards Chen Yang without mercy.
Furthermore, the Sword Realm, controlled by the hundred-foot-tall Sword Spirit God, completely blocked all of Chen Yang's escape routes.
"The power of the Nascent Soul! Legend has it that when a divine weapon is fully awakened, it can briefly unleash the power of the Nascent Soul. And it's true!"
The old Dragon King, who had just arrived, murmured, his scalp tingling with shock.
If Chen Yang were in his shoes, he would surely die from such a sword strike; there was no way he could withstand it.
At that moment, he even had an urge to kneel down.
boom!
The Golden Armored Corpse King actually struck first, swinging his Vulcan War Hammer and smashing it fiercely at the Purple Ying Divine Weapon.
He's always been a man of few words and ruthless actions.
He threw a sledgehammer weighing several hundred kilograms at several times the speed of sound, like a cannonball being fired, accompanied by raging flames.
However, this incredibly powerful hammer was sent flying back to where it came from, just touching the edge of the Sword Realm. With a deafening roar, it sent the Golden Armored Corpse King flying thousands of meters away, its body nearly shattered.
Seeing this, no one else dared to make a move.
Instead, everyone fled in all directions, the farther away the better, so as not to be caught in the aftermath of the battle.
"So you finally gave it your all? Too bad you still couldn't fully revive the divine weapon!" Chen Yang sneered, not only not dodging but also mocking him.
He said this because the hundred-foot-tall artifact spirit behind Jian Chen was completely ethereal and had not yet solidified into a physical form.
"The first move of the Xuanhuang Sword Technique: Slice the Stars!"
Although his words were flippant, Chen Yang showed no mercy when it came to actually fighting.
boom!
As he unleashed this sword strike, a weapon spirit appeared behind him. Although its height of a hundred meters was far less than that of the weapon spirit of the Purple Ying Divine Weapon, its level of refinement far surpassed that of the Purple Ying Divine Weapon's weapon spirit. It had completely materialized, wearing golden armor, and its body was as large as a mountain, resembling an incomparable war god.
