Jin Feng's body fell from the sky powerlessly, heavily smashing into a mountain below. A Saint Ruler had died just like that.
Jianchen stood there with his sword in his hand. The shocking presence he gave off slowly receded as well. In the blink of an eye, the sharp sword had become as simple as before. The unique characteristics of a Saint Ruler reappeared on him. Although he seemed to be standing there casually, he seemed to have completely fused with the space around him, fusing with the surroundings.
Jianchen withdrew the Chaotic Force he had channeled into the Dragonslaying Sword without holding back at all. The glossy, black light on the sword had already dispersed and the hazy glow that had been suppressed by the Chaotic Force reappeared, obscuring the original appearance of the sword.
Jianchen hovered in the air as he glanced at Jin Feng's corpse with mixed feelings. Two Saint Rulers from the Hongfu clan had died today, but only Jin Feng could be considered a Saint Ruler who had truly died to his hands. This was because he had personally destroyed Jin Feng's soul, unlike Jin Tian's soul, which had been destroyed by Huang Tianba.
Jianchen's emotions were slightly stirred after personally killing a Saint Ruler because experts like that were rare on the Tian Yuan Continent. Not only were they few in number, but every single one of them was a great figure. They were existences that truly stood at the apex of the continent.
"Brother Jianchen's performance has truly broadened my horizons. I never thought that brother Jianchen's mastery of the Way of the Sword would be so great. It's actually so terrifying when you use the sword. There probably won't be a second person on the Tian Yuan Continent who can match your unparalleled speed." Huang Tianba had arrived before Jianchen at some point in time as he praised in amazement. However, he was speaking from the bottom of his heart. He was not trying to curry favor with Jianchen.
Nubis flew over from afar as well. He stared at Jianchen with an extremely mixed expression and said, "The strike you used before was no weaker than a Fifth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler. I never thought that after breaking through to Saint Ruler and wielding a Ruler Armament, your strength would actually undergo such a drastic change."
Jianchen's expression did not change at all as he listened to the two people behind him. He remained as calm as before. He stared at the Dragonslaying Sword in front of him in a daze and said, "It's all because of this sword. If it weren't for this sword, I definitely wouldn't have been able to kill a Saint Ruler so easily. Even though he was heavily injured, as long as I had the sword in hand, my strength would be extraordinary."
"Looks like this Ruler Armament is a perfect match for you, brother Jianchen. Only in the hands of a sword expert like you can such a precious Ruler Armament not disgrace its status. In the past, the Ruler Armament in Jin Tian's hands truly drowned out its brilliance," Huang Tianba could not help but praise. Huang Tianba could not help but praise. Then, he looked down and waved his hand. A three-meter-long spear that was as thick as his wrist flew up from below. It was shining with a misty light.
Huang Tianba studied the spear for a while before handing it over to Jianchen. He smiled, "Brother Jianchen, this Ruler Armament was originally called the God-slaying Spear. It's a very bold name. Just like the Dragonslaying Sword, it's a treasure of the Hongfu clan, passed down from generation to generation. Now that Jin Feng and Jin Tian are dead, the God-slaying Spear in my hands should belong to you, brother Jianchen."
Jianchen looked away from the Dragonslaying Sword with some reluctance. He studied the God-slaying Spear. Although the name was bold, there was nothing special about the spear. It was no different from a regular spear. The only difference was that it possessed the presence of a Ruler Armament.
"Senior Huang, this sword is enough for me. You should keep this Ruler Armament. With two Ruler Armaments, your Huang clan's strength will increase by quite a bit." Jianchen refused in a roundabout manner. Huang Tianba laughed.
Huang Tianba chuckled and said, "My Huang family is not like those ancient clans that can possess multiple Ruler Armaments. To my Huang family, the more Ruler Armaments we have, the better. This thing is like a hot potato. With each additional Ruler Armament, we need more power to protect it. Although my Huang family has resolved our feud, having a single Ruler Armament is enough. Moreover, there is no one in my Huang family that uses a spear, so this God-slaying Spear is useless to my Huang family. Little brother Jian Chen, please accept it."
Jianchen hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he still accepted the God-slaying Spear and said, "If that's the case, then I'll accept this God-slaying Spear for now."
"Hahaha, there's no need for little brother Jianchen to be so polite. Without little brother Jianchen's help, the Old Man wouldn't have been able to kill Jintian and Jinfeng so effortlessly. This is what little brother Jianchen deserves." Huang Tianba paused and cupped his hands towards Jianchen, "Little brother Jianchen, the two Saint Rulers of the Hongfu clan are dead, but their remaining forces are still deeply rooted. The Old Man must immediately return to the Huang clan to make some arrangements. He must eliminate all future troubles. Farewell."
Huang Tianba immediately left for the Huang clan after bidding farewell to Jianchen, leaving behind Jianchen and Nubis hovering in the air by themselves.
Jianchen looked at the Ruler Armament in his hand before passing it to Nubis. He smiled, "Nubis, you've done well today. I have no use for this spear, so you should take it."
Nubis was deeply touched by Jianchen's generosity. He smiled faintly, "I'm not used to using this. At the same time, I'm a Golden-striped Silver Snake, a beast of antiquity. My battle prowess is extremely great, so I don't need any external items. As a result, you should take it back. Don't forget that you still have a large group of people under you. Giving it to them when the time is right is not a bad idea. It'll even increase the strength of your Flame Mercenaries."
"It looks like I won't be able to give away my Ruler Weapon, the Soul-slaying Spear," Jian Chen smiled bitterly as he put the spear away. He directly tossed it into his Space Ring.
"Nubis, let's go back as well."
"Yes, great Nubis!"
Jianchen took the Space Rings from the two of them before leaving. He returned to the Flame Mercenaries.
During this period of time, the Flame Mercenaries became more and more renowned. With three Saint Rulers present, the Flame Mercenaries had been pushed to the level of a peak organization without a doubt. They were the most powerful existence within a radius of two hundred thousand kilometers. Only the hermit clans that remained hidden in the mountains and forests could stand up to the Flame Mercenaries.
However, the captain of the Flame Mercenaries, Jianchen, had become a household name among the hermit clans. Last time, several hermit clans and the two ancient clans had fought over the tungsten alloy. In the end, Jianchen had managed to invite the grand elder of Mercenary City and heavily injure the Holy Emperor of the Aoyun clan with a single glance. The news had spread far and wide among the hermit clans, causing them to become afraid of provoking the Flame Mercenaries.
As a result, the Flame Mercenaries had been living rather peacefully during this time. The matter of mining the tungsten alloy was carried out with great fanfare. They did not hide it at all. Not only did they spend a large amount of money to hire a large number of people to mine the ore, they even recruited people from the surrounding kingdoms. As a result, the Flame Mercenaries could harvest a large amount of tungsten alloy every day.
Two days later, the upper echelon and a few important people of the Flame Mercenaries gathered in the discussion hall of the Flame Mercenaries. Jianchen held the sleeping White Tiger in his arms as he calmly sat at the very front. He seemed like a leader.
"Brother, this is a sketch drawn up by Sister You Yue and I along with the higher ups of the mercenary group. Now that we have an inexhaustible supply of tungsten alloy in our hands, we plan to use this batch of tungsten alloy to build a city. A city completely made of tungsten alloy, I wonder if you have any objections."
"Brother, your sister's suggestion is pretty good. Using tungsten alloy to build a city is unprecedented on the Tian Yuan Continent. If the city really is built, I can swear that it will definitely be the toughest, most powerful, and most valuable city on the Tian Yuan Continent. Even the seven capital cities of the Tian Yuan Continent will not be able to compare to it," Ming Dong excitedly said.
Jianchen roughly glanced at the plan on the paper and nodded with a smile, "Lian 'er, Yue' er, I'll leave this matter to you two. You've thought things through very thoroughly, and I'm at ease when you do things. If it's possible, we'll follow your suggestion and use tungsten alloy to build the toughest city on the Tian Yuan Continent."
"Alright, brother!" Bi Lian was overjoyed. She was the one who had thought of the suggestion in the first place. As soon as she thought about how the toughest city on the Tian Yuan Continent would be built under her plans, she felt extremely proud.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, there was a loud noise. The tightly shut door of the Great Hall was violently kicked open by someone. The sturdy door made of ironwood was directly turned into dust that flew everywhere, alarming everyone who was having a meeting in the Great Hall.
The expressions of Jian Chen, Nubis, and Jiede Tai suddenly changed as they stared outside in shock. This was because even with their strength, they had not sensed anything amiss at all, which was very unbelievable to them.
