Supreme Sword God

Luo Jianren’s expression was somber, his gaze icy as he looked at the Seventh Elder and said, "Seventh Elder, I’m sorry for today’s trouble, the rest I will handle myself."

"The Second Elder has promoted me; this small matter is of little consequence. I’ll take my leave now." The Seventh Elder cupped his hands, then took his leave.

Luo Jianren looked at Luo Kuan, who was kneeling on the ground, and snorted coldly, "If I hadn’t asked the Seventh Elder to help, you’d be done for today. Shi Fengchun and Qiao the Sixth are in cahoots, and you couldn’t even endure this little matter, acting right in front of them!"

"Ancestor, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, but Ye Chen was truly arrogant..." Luo Kuan said anxiously.

Luo Jianren said, "He has already obtained some opportunities in the Celestial Essence Sacred Land, and now he’s gone to the Dao Rhythm Spirit Pool... If he’s given another chance to breakthrough, it’ll be hard to kill him at the Grand Assembly of Hundred Races.

Go and call out Yaozu from seclusion to stop Ye Chen from making further breakthroughs in the Dao Rhythm Spirit Pool!"

Luo Kuan hurriedly stood up, suddenly thought of something, and said, "Ancestor, Luo Wen..."

"He has already been crippled by Ye Chen; saving his life has no meaning."

"But... on the way back, Luo Wen regained consciousness for a moment and said that Ye Chen and Shi Fengchun are plotting against you..."

An icy glint flashed in Luo Jianren’s eyes, and he said, "You, go get Yaozu out of seclusion and head to the Dao Rhythm Spirit Pool. I’ll handle the matter regarding Luo Wen."

"Yes, Ancestor, I’ll go immediately." Luo Kuan quickly went to summon him.

Luo Jianren waved his hand, picked up the half-dead Luo Wen, and entered a secret chamber, channeling energy into Luo Wen’s body.

"Ancestor..."

Luo Wen woke up, weakly calling out.

"Ye Chen and Shi Fengchun intend to plot against me?"

"Yes, Ye Chen said it himself. They want to reopen the case of the Black Armor Army’s destruction from three thousand years ago, claiming that evidence can be found in those dusty archives!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Jianren sneered, waved out a surge of energy, and Luo Wen turned to dust in an instant.

"Dusty archives?" Luo Jianren muttered to himself, falling into deep thought.

......

Outside the Dao Rhythm Spirit Pool.

A young man’s figure swiftly approached.

"Greetings, Sixth Elder, greetings, Hall Master Shi of Cangzhou." The young man spoke calmly and respectfully, greeting Qiao the Sixth and Shi Fengchun.

"Luo Yaozu, must you involve yourself in this matter?" Qiao the Sixth frowned.

"After all, I am a member of the Luo Family." The young man said indifferently.

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yaozu’s figure flickered and entered the Dao Rhythm Spirit Pool.

Shi Fengchun said, "Master Uncle, this kid is quite different from those idiots of the Luo Family!"

Qiao the Sixth said, "He is the true prodigy of the Luo Family, quite famous in East Desolate City. He originally followed the path of alchemy, with an outstanding talent in it.

By a stroke of luck later on, he embarked on the path of a Spirit Master, and successfully condensed the Celestial Spirit Seal with seven groups of spirit patterns.

Not long after, he also pursued the Martial Dao, making rapid progress.

Now, he is a well-known Grandmaster of Alchemy, at the peak of an Eighth Rank Celestial Seal Spirit Master, and also a Martial Artist at the peak of Seven Holes to Heaven!"

Shi Fengchun’s expression turned serious.

He knew of Ye Chen’s capabilities, but this seemed a bit troublesome.

Unless Ye Chen used his trump cards, otherwise... it would be hard to handle this Luo Yaozu.

Soon, Shi Fengchun’s brows relaxed. Anyway, Ye Chen had plenty of trump cards to turn the tables, no need to worry.

Sixth Master Qiao looked at Shi Fengchun and said, "Are you so confident in Ye Chen?"

Shi Fengchun said, "He has never disappointed, though I am curious about one thing."

"What is it?" Sixth Master Qiao asked.

"Master Uncle, is this Luo Yaozu truly of the Luo Family lineage?"

Sixth Master Qiao: "..."

Inside the Dao Rhythm Spirit Pool, in the training area of the Tier Eight Spirit Masters.

Ye Chen ceased the circulation of energy absorption and stared at Luo Yaozu, saying, "Why did only one come this time?"

"I, Luo Yaozu alone, am more than enough to suppress you!"

Ye Chen said, "Your surname is Luo? Is it a coincidence, or are you also a descendant of that old turtle Luo Jianren?"

"Ye Chen, the name of my Luo Family Ancestor must not be tarnished by you!" Luo Yaozu shouted, and in the next instant, the power of seven Grotto Heavens roared, and a golden spirit seal’s light burst forth.

"Strange, Luo Zuo, Luo You, and that Luo Wen, including Luo Kuan, are all wimpy waste products. The Luo Family can’t possibly produce someone like you unless you go home and ask your mother, ask her who your father really is!"

Ye Chen muttered, his face full of sincerity.

Luo Yaozu’s previously calm demeanor turned livid, and he roared angrily, "Ye Chen, you’re courting death!"

"Swoosh!"

Ye Chen drew his sword from its sheath, immediately swinging it down!

No more talking, let’s fight.

The power of spirit and martial unity transformed into Sword Qi, accompanied by a dragon and phoenix, slashing towards Luo Yaozu.

Even though Ye Chen attacked suddenly, Luo Yaozu’s response was quick. The power of the seven Grotto Heavens united, and the power of the Celestial Spirit Seal burst forth. The two forces combined into a massive palm imprint.

Although it was just the addition of two forces without the perfect fusion of spirit and martial unity, the blow from the prodigious Luo Yaozu was already quite formidable.

"Boom!"

The palm imprint shattered Ye Chen’s dragon and phoenix Sword Qi, continuing to shoot towards Ye Chen.

A flash of light under Ye Chen’s feet, and he instantly dodged to the side.

Luo Yaozu snorted coldly, his figure rapidly charging towards Ye Chen.

"No time to play with you, here’s a nice gift for you!"

The next moment.

Ye Chen raised his hand with a wave.

A large and nine smaller black Thunder Orbs flew out from his Storage Ring.

They were none other than the Linked Mother-Child Thunder given by Grand Pavilion Master Lin Yan of the Celestial Soldier Pavilion.

Luo Yaozu sensed the danger and immediately summoned a massive Alchemy Furnace. The Alchemy Furnace inverted, pouring down raging flames, enveloping Luo Yaozu entirely.

"Boom boom boom!"

The Linked Mother-Child Thunder exploded violently, unleashing a terrifying storm.

Luo Yaozu, along with the Alchemy Furnace, flew backward.

But Luo Yaozu remained unscathed!

His Alchemy Furnace was equally a rare treasure, belonging to the top-tier Dao Artifacts, not just for alchemy but also with tremendous defensive capabilities.

Ye Chen: "..."

The Linked Mother-Child Thunder, capable of blasting Dharma Realm experts to death, was perfectly blocked by Luo Yaozu’s defense?

"Ye Chen, your strength is insubstantial to me. Even if you rely on these external items, you’re not a match for me. When you exhaust these resources, that will be the moment of your defeat." Luo Yaozu stood beneath the overturned Alchemy Furnace, exuding strong confidence.

Ye Chen chuckled, once again retrieving a set of Linked Mother-Child Thunder.

Realistically, I can beat him, but not without a fight. However... I can handle this.

"These things are not easy to make, even though Shi Fengchun values you, he can’t provide you with many such resources, and even if you use up all you have left, my defense won’t break, and then you’ll face a crushing defeat." Luo Yaozu stood under the inverted Alchemy Furnace, his tone full of confidence.

Ye Chen smiled. "I think I can easily take you on my own, but wasting time isn’t worth it. I’m giving you a special delivery!"

Without delay.

Ye Chen swiftly charged out and, as he approached Luo Yaozu, hurled the Linked Mother-Child Thunder fiercely.

Luo Yaozu didn’t dodge; his inverted Alchemy Furnace erupted with flickering golden spirit imprints, completely enveloping him.

"Boom boom boom!"

The Linked Mother-Child Thunder exploded once more, unleashing a terrifying storm.

"Such antiquated relics can’t touch me!"

Ye Chen’s cold smile deepened, and the power of the Soldier Character Secret suddenly spread out, landing on Luo Yaozu’s Alchemy Furnace.

At the same time, Ye Chen formed a hand seal with one hand, and the Taiyin Fire Control Technique’s power erupted.
