Divine War Pill Emperor

Jiang Chen’s Primordial Qi Burst had left Zhang Xi injured and unconscious.

The crowd erupted in an uproar.

The face of He Ansheng, Deputy Captain of the Black Demon Mercenary Corps, turned livid.

’Damn it. That kid actually won.’

He was also more baffled than ever. Jiang Chen, a mere Sixth Level of Martial Master, had defeated Zhang Xi, a Martial Master of the Eighth Layer Heaven.

And even now, he still hadn’t managed to gauge Jiang Chen’s true strength.

It was a complete loss of face for him.

After all, the entire reason he’d stepped forward was to ascertain Jiang Chen’s actual capabilities.

Of course, even the strength Jiang Chen had displayed so far was enough to make the Black Demon Mercenary Corps take him seriously.

Their Black Demon Mercenary Corps had fewer than five experts of this caliber.

And that number included He Ansheng himself.

"Deputy Captain He, thank you for the ten million primordial crystals."

Jiang Chen stood on the stage and gave a faint smile.

It was an innocent-looking smile, but when He Ansheng saw it, he wanted nothing more than to slap it right off Jiang Chen’s face.

It was just rotten luck, losing like this.

Losing was one thing, but many mercenaries from the Black Demon Mercenary Corps had also lost their bets. Even He Ansheng himself had lost ten thousand primordial crystals.

A complete tragedy.

What made it even more humiliating was that their personal losses were nothing compared to the ten million they now had to hand over to Jiang Chen.

Ten million was no small sum, not even for the Black Demon Mercenary Corps.

He was furious, but with everyone watching him expectantly, he couldn’t possibly refuse to pay.

Finally, his heart aching with regret, he tossed the Qiankun Bag directly to Jiang Chen.

"You win."

Jiang Chen caught the Qiankun Bag and glanced inside. A full ten million, not a single crystal missing.

He suavely stored the ten million primordial crystals, then pocketed the Qiankun Bag as well without the slightest hesitation.

Handing over the primordial crystals had done nothing to quell He Ansheng’s dissatisfaction. He still hadn’t gauged Jiang Chen’s true strength.

He snorted coldly.

"Kid, you said it yourself. Anyone from the Black Demon Mercenary Corps can challenge you."

"You’re not going back on your word, are you?"

Staring at Jiang Chen, He Ansheng resolved to take matters into his own hands, teach the kid a lesson, and test his strength at the same time.

However, Jiang Chen just smiled faintly.

"That’s right, I did say that."

"So, are you next? Fine by me. I don’t see anyone else from your Black Demon Mercenary Corps worth fighting. You’ll have to do."

Jiang Chen was perfectly composed, completely at ease.

He showed absolutely no respect for the Black Demon Mercenary Corps.

"You..."

He Ansheng felt utterly humiliated. Jiang Chen was actually telling *him* to get on the stage.

Not that it didn’t suit his intentions perfectly.

SWISH!

He vaulted onto the fighting stage.

The crowd went wild.

The Deputy Captain of the Black Demon Mercenary Corps was personally taking the field.

Mercenaries from the other fighting stages all rushed over to watch.

"Look! Deputy Captain He is making a move himself!"

"Yeah, I hear Deputy Captain He hasn’t fought in years! Now that he’s personally challenging that kid, the kid’s definitely going to lose."

"Of course he is. Deputy Captain He is a Martial Master at the Peak of the Ninth Heaven! In the entire Black Demon Mercenary Corps, he’s second only to Captain Xiao Jun."

Most of the people here recognized He Ansheng, and they all began to sing his praises.

He Ansheng offered an arrogant smile in return.

"Kid, now it’s my turn to teach you a lesson personally."

In his hand, a Triangular Spear, a Magical Treasure, glinted coldly.

He aimed it at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen chuckled. "Then let’s see what you’re capable of."

"Enough talk. Let’s do this."

Not wanting to waste any more words, a silver light flashed in his hand.

SWISH!

The Cloud Mist Sword appeared in his hand.

He was confident, but facing an expert at the Martial Master Peak of Nine Heavens, he couldn’t afford to be careless.

So, he drew the Cloud Mist Sword.

As Jiang Chen drew the Cloud Mist Sword, it shimmered with the light of a precious treasure.

The crowd was stunned once more.

"My God, a Treasure Artifact! That kid actually has a Treasure Artifact!"

"A Treasure Artifact! Even a single one is a precious Magical Treasure worth tens of millions!"

"And he actually has one."

Even He Ansheng was surprised that Jiang Chen had produced a Treasure Artifact.

His own weapon, by comparison, was merely a Dharma Artifact.

It paled in comparison.

Seeing this, a cold glint flashed in He Ansheng’s eyes.

"Even with a Treasure Artifact, I can still defeat you with ease today."

"Die!"

His Triangular Spear glowed with a terrifying light, the result of years spent condensing his Cultivation Power into it.

He aimed it at Jiang Chen from a distance.

SWISH!

Spear in hand, he lunged like a furious dragon bursting from the sea, straight toward Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen held his Cloud Mist Sword and said calmly, "Fast Sword Has No Edge."

He immediately unleashed the first move of the Shadowless Sword Technique: Fast Sword Has No Edge.

The sword in his hand instantly dissolved into a series of brilliant flashes of light, striking toward the oncoming spear at an incredible speed.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

A series of deafening impacts rang out.

A look of pure shock spread across He Ansheng’s face.

Because he had only made a single thrust with his spear.

But in that short span of time, Jiang Chen’s sword had struck the tip of his spear dozens of times.

Each strike knocked his spear back slightly, weakening its momentum.

And he, in turn, bore the brunt of the deflected force.

In an instant, dozens of impacts.

His spear’s thrust was almost entirely depleted of its power.

At the same time, the dozens of vibrations traveled up his arm like surging ocean waves, one after another.

In a matter of moments, his arm was completely numb from the shocks.

This bizarre method of attack caused He Ansheng’s expression to change drastically.

’Damn it, how is this kid so unorthodox?’

He had the sinking feeling that he was no match for Jiang Chen at all.

The essence of Jiang Chen’s Fast Sword Has No Edge could be summed up in one word: fast.

It was unbelievably fast. In the time it took He Ansheng to make a single thrust, Jiang Chen had attacked dozens of times.

He had now completely neutralized He Ansheng’s spear, leaving him unable to retaliate.

But Jiang Chen, sword in hand, surged forward again. His Cloud Mist Sword practically radiated Sword Intent.

He slashed down at He Ansheng.

Now that Jiang Chen had comprehended Sword Intent, he could infuse it into every single strike.

He could summon his Sword Intent with but a thought.

SWISH!

A flash of sword light streaked directly toward He Ansheng.

He Ansheng had just snapped out of his shock when he saw Jiang Chen’s sword descending upon him.

In his haste, he thrust his spear out horizontally to block.

SCHLICK!

The Sword Aura flashed, and Jiang Chen’s blade instantly sliced He Ansheng’s spear in two.

"Ugh..."

He Ansheng was dumbfounded.

He couldn’t believe his Magical Treasure had been destroyed so quickly.

SWOOSH...

In the time it took for him to register his shock, a flash of sword light descended, stopping just before him.

It was Jiang Chen, standing with his sword held steady.

The tip was pointed directly at He Ansheng.

Defeated in a single exchange.

"Defeated in a single exchange?"

"No way! Deputy Captain He couldn’t even last a single exchange against him?"

"What just happened?"

No one could process what had just happened.

They had all been expecting to see He Ansheng defeat Jiang Chen.

But instead, it was Jiang Chen who had defeated He Ansheng.

And so incredibly quickly.

The result was something no one could have possibly predicted.
