This was the first time that the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Hall had witnessed a celestial phenomenon occurring during someone's breakthrough.
Moreover, it was not just an ordinary celestial phenomenon.
This is a real dragon.
A five-clawed golden dragon coiled around Lu Chen, rose into the sky from beneath his feet, and then burst forth with a golden light before disappearing.
"Will a breakthrough be accompanied by extraordinary phenomena?"
Everyone stared at the scene, stunned.
Lu Chen remained calm and drifted away.
No one knew that this was not a celestial phenomenon caused by a breakthrough at all, but simply an external manifestation caused by Lu Chen consuming the Dragon Essence Fruit and gaining the special ability of transforming into a true dragon.
Of course, Lu Chen wouldn't explain.
Let them think that way.
Lu Chen returned to the courtyard alone. Yi Yi was still in seclusion, cultivating diligently without daring to slack off in the slightest.
As night fell, Lu Chen felt no sleepiness whatsoever.
In the small courtyard, he lay there leisurely, gazing at the bright moon in the sky.
Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky and landed in front of Lu Chen.
The newcomer was not unfamiliar; she was one of the three senior sisters that Lu Chen had just met during the day.
Lu Chen was not surprised at all.
"May I ask how to address this senior sister?"
Lu Chen did not get up, as if he had known she would come.
“Ouyang Jiao”.
The woman's voice was cold and tinged with surprise, as if she hadn't expected that her arrival would be exactly what Lu Chen had anticipated.
How did you know I would come?
Unable to hide her feelings, Ouyang Jiao couldn't help but ask directly.
Lu Chen finally stood up at this moment. Looking at Ouyang Jiao's beautiful face and her curious gaze, he smiled and said, "When we first met during the day, I felt that I was on the same wavelength as Senior Sister Ouyang. It was as if we had an inexplicable fate. So, I deliberately waited here for a long time. I didn't expect that Senior Sister would actually come. Is there something you want to say to me, Senior Sister Ouyang, but you were too shy before?"
This overly familiar confession left Ouyang Jiao stunned, as she had no idea what kind of person Lu Chen was before.
Now I've finally seen it for myself.
“Senior Brother Lu Chen, you have misunderstood. I came here only to ask you for guidance, but there are too many people during the day, which is inconvenient. I hope you will be kind enough to give me your guidance.”
Ouyang Jiao refused outright.
Although she had a good impression of Lu Chen, especially after witnessing his talent firsthand during the day, which was truly eye-opening, Ouyang Jiao had seen far too many geniuses, and very few of them were able to truly grow into great talents.
Although Lu Chen is very likely to soar to great heights and become a top genius in the future, Ouyang Jiao can only admire him; she has not yet fallen in love at first sight.
"It seems I did misunderstand."
Lu Chen sighed with emotion, but a smile appeared on his face as he said, "Of course I can. I've said it before, we're all from the same sect. I'll humbly accept any senior or junior sister who comes to ask me for guidance. And it can be anytime, day or night, because I have plenty of time."
Lu Chen's smile struck Ouyang Jiao as extremely strange.
But Ouyang Jiao didn't say anything. She just slowly drew the sword from her back, looked at Lu Chen, and said very seriously, "I have created my own sword technique. I would like to ask Senior Brother Lu Chen for some guidance."
After saying that, Ouyang Jiao began to demonstrate right in front of Lu Chen, and the entire courtyard was filled with the flashing light of swords.
The pure white moonlight spilled into the courtyard, enveloping Ouyang Jiao's exquisite figure, making her appear like a fairy dancing in the moonlight.
Lu Chen was completely mesmerized; what a stunningly beautiful and peerless female sword cultivator!
"good."
Lu Chen was naturally discerning; he could tell at a glance that Ouyang Jiao's swordsmanship was extremely skillful, and that it was her own creation, showing great talent.
Lu Chen wasn't confident he could create his own sword technique, nor did he need to.
After Ouyang Jiao finished her performance, she looked at Lu Chen with anticipation, eager to know how this legendary innate sword physique would evaluate her self-created sword technique.
Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Not bad, it should have reached the level of a Xuan-grade technique. However, the sword technique you used is very gorgeous, but it doesn't have much power."
"Your sword techniques are too complicated. In a real battle, a single move can often decide the outcome. What use are the later sword techniques, no matter how beautiful they are?"
Hearing this, Ouyang Jiao felt resentful, but she refrained from explaining.
Lu Chen saw that she seemed quite unconvinced, but he didn't take it to heart.
"If Senior Sister Ouyang doesn't believe me, let's have a fight and see."
Lu Chen took out an ordinary black iron longsword and quietly looked at Ouyang Jiao.
"Senior Brother Lu Chen, be careful."
Ouyang Jiao once again unleashed her incredibly complex and dazzling swordsmanship.
However, before she could finish her move, a flash of sword light appeared before her eyes.
Lu Chen's figure had disappeared.
When it reappeared, it was already right in front of her.
The black iron longsword in Lu Chen's hand was pointed at her brow.
The sudden turn of events left Ouyang Jiao no time to react, and the battle ended in an instant.
As expected, just as Lu Chen had said before, no matter how exquisite her subsequent moves were, she had no chance to use them again.
Lu Chen sheathed his sword and stood there.
Ouyang Jiao, however, was deathly pale.
Facts speak louder than words.
The sword technique he created with countless hours of effort was nothing but flashy nonsense.
