"Lu Chen is in for a rough time now!"
"Huh?"
"What?"
"..."
Everyone was shocked.
In that split second, Lu Chen casually took a step and disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already a zhang away, still with a faint smile on his lips and a relaxed expression.
The sword energy missed its target.
He actually dodged it easily in that instant.
Chi Feng was also taken aback for a moment.
"Um?"
Chi Feng was utterly shocked by the movement technique Lu Chen displayed.
"What kind of movement technique is that? I've never seen anything like it before!"
Just now, Lu Chen simply took a step without making any extra movements, but it was as if he had instantly teleported to another place.
The unpredictable nature of his movements was simply astounding.
"You're really good at dodging!"
Chi Feng only felt that he had been careless and did not take it to heart, and immediately made another move.
This time, the sword in his hand shone with dazzling light, transforming into extremely sharp sword energy that swept towards Lu Chen.
"Let's see how you hide!"
Chi Fengqing's expression was cold and indifferent.
He knew exactly what to do. A mere outer disciple at the second level of the True Essence Realm was not worth using his killing move on; this one sword strike was enough.
However, an unexpected event occurred once again.
Lu Chen glanced at him, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Draw your sword.
The sword intent surged and spread.
Suddenly, a torrential downpour began.
A rain of swords fell over the city.
Lu Chen had used this move before, but this time it was completely different, with an unprecedented scale and power.
The rain of swords clashed directly with Chi Feng's sword energy.
The rain of swords poured down, each drop containing terrifying sword intent, instantly enveloping Chi Feng.
"A trivial skill!"
Chi Feng was extremely dismissive of this.
The Dripping Water Sword Technique?
It's just a Xuan-grade sword technique; only an outer disciple like Lu Chen would practice such an ordinary sword technique.
Chi Feng, as the most elite disciple of the Heavenly Sword Hall, cultivates the Heavenly Grade Sword Technique.
"break!"
A gust of wind, sharp as a knife, swept across the sky, unleashing a rain of sword-like energy.
In an instant, everything vanished.
A disdainful smile appeared on Chi Feng's face.
Then.
His smile froze instantly.
A sword, as if traversing the void, stopped at Chi Feng's brow, almost touching his skin.
All it takes is a burst of sword energy to pierce his forehead in an instant.
Everything vanished like smoke.
Chi Feng finally saw the person holding the sword in front of him clearly.
It was Lu Chen.
Quiet.
An eerie silence filled the room.
Everyone who witnessed this scene was speechless with shock, staring blankly at Lu Chen and Chi Feng in the arena, lost in thought for a long time.
Their minds were blank.
I'm no longer able to think.
I was still shaken.
What just happened?
"I don't think I saw anything, except that Lu Chen took out his sword and pressed it against Senior Brother Chi Feng's forehead!"
"My God, what kind of swordsmanship is this?"
"Lu Chen... he actually defeated Senior Brother Chi Feng? That's impossible!"
"..."
All eyes turned to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen remained calm, glancing at the motionless Chi Feng, and lazily said, "Is this all the geniuses the Heavenly Sword Hall has to offer?"
Chi Feng's mouth was slightly open, but he couldn't utter a single word.
He could feel the terrifying sword intent emanating from the sword above his head, and he had no doubt that this sword could pierce through his head.
The tip of the sword emitted an incredibly terrifying faint golden light, as if it could pierce through everything.
Even now, Chi Feng still hasn't seen how Lu Chen made his move. The fact that even he couldn't see it shows just how terrifyingly fast Lu Chen's speed was at the moment of his attack.
"What a waste of time!"
Lu Chen pursed his lips, sheathed his sword, and turned to leave.
The crowd parted automatically, making way for Lu Chen, and then everyone watched him leave.
Only after his figure disappeared from everyone's sight and entered the Sword Immortal Pavilion did everyone turn around and look at Chi Feng, who was still standing there in a daze, and their expressions gradually became strange.
"Senior Brother Chi Feng actually lost!"
"The Heavenly Sword Hall, is that all there is to it?"
"I thought this pool of wind was something special! Heh!"
"Useless! He actually lost! Lu Chen is only at the second level of the True Essence Realm!"
"Don't blame Senior Brother Chi Feng, I just want to ask, who could have blocked Lu Chen's sword strike just now?"
"..."
Everyone fell silent.
However, the way everyone looked at Chi Feng couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy.
Lu Chen's sword strike was enough to resound throughout the entire Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
And Chi Feng became Lu Chen's stepping stone to fame.
From then on, his reputation was ruined.
Many years from now, when people mention him, he will still be remembered as the genius of the Heavenly Sword Hall who was once defeated by Lu Chen with a single sword strike.
"I've lost!"
Chi Feng's eyes were glazed over as he muttered to himself, his hand gripping the sword, which was trembling slightly.
"I actually lost! I lost to a Seven Star Hall outer disciple who was only at the second level of the True Essence Realm!"
"Could it be... that the Innate Sword Body is truly invincible?"
...
Lu Chen returned to the Sword Immortal Pavilion, his expression calm, but his heart was secretly filled with excitement.
"This Golden Spirit Fruit is amazing!"
