The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3115 - 3110: Too Weak!_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
Ultimately, Yang Chen found himself unable to articulate the reasons behind this peculiar sensation.
Nevertheless, after a period of deep contemplation, certain realizations began to take shape within his mind.
The resemblance between this location and the Mountain and River Destruction Map was surely no accident. Yet, the Mountain and River Destruction Map was merely an artifact...
In contrast, this Sword Servant World was a literal realm—a dimension carved out by a powerhouse of the Heavenly Extreme Realm.
"Wait a moment." Yang Chen’s pupils suddenly narrowed as a sharp thought struck him.
According to the legends circulating in the Spirit Realm, the Mountain and River Destruction Map was the creation of Hua Qingfeng, who had imbued it with his own Immortal Qi. It was said that Hua Qingfeng eventually ascended and departed from the Spirit Realm, leaving his destination a mystery.
However, these tales were likely just myths. From his current vantage point, the concept of ascension was nothing more than a rumor, and the so-called Flying Immortal Realm was a mere fabrication, unworthy of belief.
Furthermore, the crucial point remained that Hua Qingfeng was the one who fashioned the Mountain and River Destruction Map.
It was neither a Xuan Tian treasure nor a divine weapon belonging to any specific race. It did not fall under the categories of Supreme Divine Artifact, King Divine Artifact, or Emperor Divine Artifact either.
What, then, was its true nature?
Since this Sword Servant World and the Mountain and River Destruction Map evoked an identical feeling, could it be that...
Yang Chen reflected on the properties of the Mountain and River Destruction Map, which possessed the vast capacity to contain oceans and peaks, and even held the power to seal Peng Wanli within its bounds!
"It appears Hua Qingfeng’s true strength surpassed even my loftiest estimations. He was, after all, the man who forced the King of Hell back into the Netherworld. How terrifying must the King of Hell’s power be? Ultimately, I still understand far too little regarding the power levels of the Heaven-appointed Realm and the Heavenly Extreme Realm."
Now, as he surveyed his surroundings, Yang Chen scrutinized every detail, refusing to miss a single clue.
The Sword Servant World differed significantly from the Mountain and River Destruction Map, primarily in its governing laws. The Mountain and River Destruction Map lacked internal regulations, existing much like a blank sheet of paper.
This Sword Servant World, however, felt far more oppressive and structured, as the entire dimension was saturated with a law that even an ordinary person would recognize instantly.
That law was the Sword Law.
The entire world was constructed from this Sword Law, ensuring that with every step, one felt completely submerged in a vast ocean of blades.
Lu Fa Celestial Venerate led the way, but the group of four had only progressed a short distance before coming to a halt.
Standing boldly in their path were several figures. These beings possessed blue skin and were draped in simple, archaic garments. Though they resembled humans, their eyes were hollow and devoid of any spark of life.
Floating in mid-air, each held a blue blade that matched the hue of their bodies. Simply by standing there, they radiated the aura of unsheathed, razor-sharp swords.
"So, these are the Sword Servants?" Yang Chen observed them intently, searching for any hidden secrets.
He found no hidden depths; all he could perceive was the dense, intimidating presence of the Sword Law.
This law was formidable indeed.
"Indeed, these are the Sword Servants. The Small Sword Servants roam the outskirts, and their cultivation is roughly at the mid-stage of the Realmless level. Two of us working together can manage one without much trouble. Our primary concern must be the Large Sword Servants. They are significantly larger than the Small Sword Servants and patrol a much broader territory," Lu Fa Celestial Venerate explained.
Yang Chen noted that these Sword Servants were indeed patrolling back and forth with their sharp blades. However, their movements were restricted to small, repetitive loops.
As for the more formidable Large Sword Servants, they had yet to make an appearance.
"We will divide into pairs shortly to draw out the Small Sword Servants and eliminate them one by one. We must remain vigilant regarding the Large Sword Servants' patrol routes. If one draws near, we must retreat at once rather than engage. The power of a Large Sword Servant is immense; it requires the combined strength of all four of us to subdue one," Lu Fa Celestial Venerate warned solemnly.
While White Eagle Celestial Venerate and the others were already familiar with these tactics, the explanation was primarily intended for Yang Chen’s benefit.
Yang Chen remained composed, a faint smile touching his lips. "I understand."
"Very well, let us lose no more time. We shall proceed in pairs. I will partner with Junior Brother Hundredfold, while White Eagle Junior Brother, you will take Yang Chen. You two must avoid being overly aggressive and prioritize caution." Lu Fa Celestial Venerate’s gaze lingered on White Eagle Celestial Venerate, his underlying meaning obvious.
Since Yang Chen’s cultivation was only at the early Boundaryless Stage, their cooperation required extra care.
White Eagle Celestial Venerate understood the gravity of the task and immediately cupped his hands. "Senior Brother, do not worry. I will handle it."
Relieved, Lu Fa Celestial Venerate set off with Bai Sheng Celestial Venerate to begin luring the Small Sword Servants away.
Standing with Yang Chen, White Eagle Celestial Venerate spoke in a low tone, "Yang Chen, it is time. You have no experience fighting Sword Servants, so follow my lead once we engage. Though these Small Sword Servants lack intellect, it is their very lack of fear and emotion that makes them so difficult to predict."
"Understood," Yang Chen replied softly.
Upon hearing this, White Eagle Celestial Venerate stepped forward, carefully baiting a Small Sword Servant toward them.
The creatures were indeed dim-witted. Following White Eagle Celestial Venerate's careful movements, one was soon drawn away from its post.
As soon as it arrived, the Sword Servant lashed out with savage intent, its blade accompanied by the weight of the Sword Law!
With a swift flick of his sleeve, White Eagle Celestial Venerate manifested a shield of light. As the shield formed, it hummed with the power of various laws—it was clearly his Life-bound Divine Artifact.
The artifact clashed with the Sword Servant’s Sword Law, successfully parrying the strike.
However, the effort seemed to tax White Eagle Celestial Venerate, who was forced back several steps while maintaining his defense.
Seeing the opening, White Eagle Celestial Venerate shouted, "Yang Chen, I will keep it occupied! Stay on the periphery and search for a vulnerability!"
White Eagle Celestial Venerate did not expect Yang Chen to land a killing blow; he merely hoped the youth could create a distraction.
Yang Chen inwardly shook his head. In truth, these Sword Servants were a struggle for Lu Fa Celestial Venerate and the others. They treated every encounter as a battle against a peerless foe.
To him, however, the situation was entirely different.
Even though his strength had not yet returned to its zenith, these Sword Servants hardly warranted his full attention.
They were weak—hardly worth a single strike.
Nevertheless, Yang Chen had no desire to flaunt his power. He simply expanded his Domain of Earth a fraction.
Instantly, the Sword Servant, which had been relentlessly pressing White Eagle Celestial Venerate, suddenly grew rigid, its movements slowing to a crawl.
"Brother White Eagle, I possess a secret technique capable of binding foes. Strike now!" Yang Chen called out.
White Eagle Celestial Venerate stood momentarily stunned, unable to fathom how the Sword Servant had been neutralized so effortlessly.
