Chapter 10

Zhan Chen ran for his life towards the entrance of the town. He didn't notice that he was laughing as he ran. Tonight was truly a hearty night. He had finally gotten his revenge! This was the first time he had killed someone. Furthermore, he had killed a sinful bastard!

After releasing his anger, he felt a sense of relief that he had never felt before. It was as if his future path had become smoother. There was nothing that could stop him from moving forward.

Gradually, he was about to escape from the town. He could even see the entrance of the town. He had already planned everything out. As soon as he reached home, he would tell his old father everything. Then, he would escape with him. The silver in his arms would be enough for them to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.

Right at this moment, Zhan Chen suddenly felt a swift and fierce aura approaching from behind. Turning his head, he saw Lin Meng quickly chasing after him from afar!

"Run!" At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind. If Lin Meng caught up to him, he would definitely die. The difference in strength between the two of them was too great. There was a fundamental difference between a Martial Master and a Martial Disciple. Even if there were ten Martial Disciples at the twelfth layer, they would not be able to defeat a single Martial Master.

However, the distance between them was rapidly shrinking. Zhan Chen gritted his teeth and ran towards the cliff at the edge of the town. He remembered that there was a deep pool at the bottom of the cliff. If he jumped down from there, he would definitely be able to escape from Lin Meng's pursuit.

At this moment, Lin Meng's voice came from behind, "Zhan Chen, is that you? I didn't think that your cultivation had already recovered. "

Zhan Chen didn't answer him. Instead, he focused all his energy on running. At this moment, if he spoke, his speed would slow down.

"You can't escape. If you obediently follow me back, I can still leave your corpse intact. Otherwise, if I catch you later, I will break your bones one by one. I will make you wish you were dead!"

As Lin Meng spoke, Zhan Chen felt that Lin Meng's speed had significantly slowed down. Furthermore, he had run a long distance. In his heart, he thought, "I need to make this guy think more and talk more. Only then will I have a chance to escape to the cliff!"

Thus, he raised his voice and asked, "Teacher, why do you want to harm me?"

Lin Meng answered, "Isn't it obvious? Wang Ba is the second young master of the Wang Family, and you're just a nobody. I'm not afraid to tell you that Wang Yuanqing has already promised me that he would make an exception and hire me as his family's disciple, and that I would have the opportunity to learn martial arts manuals that are above the Middle Grade of the Yellow Rank. But you've ruined everything! "Wang Yuanqing said coldly.

At this point, Lin Meng's teeth chattered in anger.

At this time, the two of them had unknowingly reached the top of the cliff. Zhan Chen seized the last opportunity to sprint towards the top of the cliff.

Finally, Lin Meng realized something and shouted, "You want to escape by jumping off the cliff? Finally, Lin Meng Ran. As he spoke, he suddenly sped up and charged towards Zhan Chen as if he was flying. He raised his sword and slashed towards Zhan Chen's back. However, Lin Meng clearly controlled his strength and didn't kill Zhan Chen. This was because he had always wanted to capture Zhan Chen alive.

Zhan Chen had no choice but to turn around and place his Heavy Iron Sword in front of his chest.

With a clang, the two swords collided. Zhan Chen felt his arms go numb and a sweet taste in his chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards. Using the recoil, he finally reached the top of the cliff.

Lin Meng saw that things were not going well. He suddenly stopped and activated the Zhen Qi in his body. A green light flowed on his sword.

He was going to use the sword art! Zhan Chen was shocked. Lin Meng had finally changed his plan. He wanted to kill him. Without thinking, he stopped and held the sword with both hands. He activated the Thunder-breaking Sword Art to the extreme.

"Killing Breeze!" Lin Meng's sword slashed at him. A crescent-shaped Sword Qi flew towards him. The speed was beyond the reaction of a Martial Disciple.

"Thunder-breaking Sword!" At the same time as Lin Meng attacked, Zhan Chen also attacked! He swung his Heavy Iron Sword in the direction of the Sword Qi. With a loud bang, he felt his body fly into the air. His vision went black and he did not know what happened next … …

At the top of Falling Brook Cliff, Lin Meng looked at the bottomless abyss. He couldn't help but sigh and murmured, "It's a pity that I didn't get the corpse of that evil creature. When I go back, I will have to explain to that old man Wang Yuanqing."

Plop! A bone-chilling cold woke Zhan Chen up. He felt that he had lost all feeling in his body. But he knew that he couldn't close his eyes. He gripped the sword in his hand and used the last of his strength to swim towards the edge of the pool.

When he reached the shore, he relaxed and fell into a deep sleep. He only woke up at noon the next day.

The first thing Zhan Chen did when he woke up was to check his injuries. He had fought with a Martial Master last night. He was worried that his muscles and bones would be injured. In the end, the results made him overjoyed. Other than his body being a little weak, he was in perfect condition! He knew clearly that it was the Thunder-breaking Sword that saved him and blocked Lin Meng's killing blow.

"A Martial Master is only so-so! Lin Meng, the next one to die will be you! "Zhan Chen's eyes lit up.

He stood up and tidied up his clothes. Then, he took out the banknotes from his chest. Although they were a little wet, they could still be used. Huo! There were more than ten thousand taels!

Zhan Chen couldn't help but smile. This time, he had money. It was more than enough to buy a Hundred Tempered Sword. The remaining money was enough for him and his father to spend.

When he thought of the sword, he quickly bent down and picked up the Heavy Iron Sword. He used his sleeves to carefully clean the sword. This was not only his first sword, but also a precious gift from his father.

Yesterday's battle was too intense. It had withstood two consecutive blows from a Martial Master. The sword, which was made of coarse material, was also full of cracks. Maybe it would be broken into pieces in the next battle.

Looking at the bruised appearance of the Heavy Iron Sword, Zhan Chen's eyes were filled with tears. He used his fingers to carefully rub the fine cracks on the sword. At this moment, a ray of sunlight shone on the Heavy Iron Sword. A silver light suddenly flashed on the sword. It was so bright that Zhan Chen squinted his eyes.

Was it an illusion? He was shocked. He raised the sword high above his head and shone it under the sunlight. Sure enough, the silver light appeared again!

"There's something in this sword!" Zhan Chen suddenly came to a realization, and his heartbeat sped up.

His strong curiosity drove him to act. He raised the Heavy Iron Sword and chopped at the mountain rock beside him with all his strength. Once, twice, thrice …

With a cracking sound, the Heavy Iron Sword was finally unable to bear the heavy burden and broke into pieces. The thing hidden inside was also revealed. It was actually a treasured sword shining with a cold light!

Zhan Chen was wild with joy. He quickly sped up the progress of his hands. Finally, the white gold weapon revealed its true appearance.

This sword was three feet and three inches long. The blade was so sharp that it could break a hair. The width of the sword was moderate, giving people a feeling of balance and harmony. The sword blade was in the shape of a golden dragon. The dragon's mouth was tightly holding the sword blade. The workmanship was incomparably exquisite and gorgeous. It seemed as if it was not something that should be in the mortal world.

"Wandering Dragon Frightening Sword!" Zhan Chen found these five small words on the sword hilt. Perhaps this was the name of the sword. Seeing this, he could not help but be confused. This sword was hidden so well. It was most likely an important treasure. Unfortunately, it was different from the standard of a treasured sword.

It turned out that in the world of martial artists, the standard to measure a good sword was its material and workmanship. From a Martial Disciple to a Martial Saint, one's strength was always in the process of rising. Therefore, the legendary Holy Weapons were all at least a hundred thousand catties heavy. Even Royal Weapons were at least a thousand catties heavy.

However, this Wandering Dragon Frightening Sword could be easily picked up by him as if it was nothing. Would it be powerful if it was used to chop people?

"This Heavy Iron Sword might have an explanation!" Zhan Chen suddenly remembered that when he was smashing the sword, a silk handkerchief seemed to have flown out. However, he had been so focused on looking at the item in the Heavy Iron Sword that he had forgotten about it.

Therefore, he hurriedly searched the ground. Finally, he found the silk handkerchief. When he unfolded it, it was actually a letter written in blood!

It was written on the top of the head, "For the descendants." The content was as follows: This Wandering Dragon Frightening Sword is of great importance. It is the Life Dao Weapon of the founder of the Lihen Sect, Daoist You Long. Daoist You Long's cultivation is exquisite and he has already entered the realm of Immortal Essence.

I, Yu Zhuge Zhi, have a cultivation of the Martial Saint Great Circle. In order to steal a valuable treasure with eleven friends, we snuck into the inner parts of the sect. After a few twists and turns, the treasure was finally obtained by me. Since then, I have concealed my identity and fled to this desolate land of the North Sea. I have tried my best to comprehend the profundities of this sword. However, it contains an Immortal Formation which I am unable to break with my current strength. I hope that my descendants will be able to work hard and break it. From then on, I will bring glory to my ancestors and reach the heavens in a single step.

Reading this, Zhan Chen was shocked. Although he did not know anything about Daoist You Long or about entering the realm of Immortal Essence, he knew that this Zhuge Zhi was an expert of the Martial Saint Great Circle. Then, a treasure that could cause an expert of this level to risk his life, other than an Immortal Treasure, what else could it be?

At this moment, when he looked at this sword again, his expression was complicated. It was possible that what the old man who had sold him this sword had said was true. However, the descendants of this Senior Zhuge Zhi had declined, causing the treasure to fall into his hands.

"However, although this treasure is good, it is a pity that it will not be of much help to me now. For the time being, I will use it as a Hundred Tempered Sword," Zhan Chen murmured. If Zhuge Zhi heard this, he would definitely crawl out of his grave and kill him with a slap.

However, Zhan Chen thought about it again. Didn't the bloody letter say that as long as he could break the formation sealed in this sword, he might be able to pry into the secrets of the Immortals?! Thinking about the secrets of the Immortals, he felt his blood boil.

At this moment, he finally felt that he knew too little!

"Maybe one day, I should sneak into a sect and see if there is a way to break the seal on this sword," Zhan Chen thought to himself.

After that, he wrapped the Daoist You Long Sword in his clothes and carried it on his back. Then, he started on his way home.
