Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 80, Entering the City (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Collections)

Chapter 80: Chapter 80, Entering the City (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Collections)

Chu Ming’s current strength is three or four times stronger than before. He has a feeling that his current strength should be invincible on the Cyan Yang List, even Qi Yang couldn’t stop his pace.

At the moment when Chu Ming made his breakthrough, the man in black also launched an assassination attempt on him. A knife was swung out, with countless knife shadows, like surging tides, wave after wave, reaching Chu Ming’s front, the momentum reached its peak, he wanted to kill Chu Ming with one cut!

In Chu Ming’s eyes, the speed of the man in black now seemed really slow, terribly slow. This was due to Chu Ming’s enhanced power.

According to the records in the "Fire Burning True Skill", the front four layers correspond to the Transcendence Realm, and the latter three layers correspond to the True Dao Realm. Chu Ming had practiced to the Fifth Layer without reaching the True Dao Realm, the enhancement of spiritual power was greater than the sum of the first four layers.

Poof

Chu Ming swung his sword out, immediately sweeping away all the knife shadows in front of him, turning them into countless bubbles.

Ding

Countless sparks flew, a figure shot out, this time it was the man in black. As he retreated, the tiger’s mouth of his hand was directly smashed, blood flowed profusely.

"Impossible!!!"

The first reaction of the man in black was that he was hallucinating, the second reaction was that Chu Ming was hiding his strength. With Chu Ming’s current displayed strength, he was absolutely not his match, he immediately had the intent to retreat in his heart.

At the moment when Chu Ming knocked him flying, using the force of the recoil, his body flew towards the distance. Unfortunately, Chu Ming had already seen through his thoughts. At the moment of his escape, Chu Ming turned into a condensed gust of wind, sticking tightly behind him.

"Frenzied Dragon Swordsmanship!"

Chu Ming raised his sword, and with a swing, a frenzied dragon roared, several sword lights formed a dragon-shaped phantom in front of Chu Ming, howling towards the sky, swept towards the man in black like thunder.

Poof

The man in black raised his knife and slashed behind him, immediately the sword force flew, but as soon as the sword force spread, it was destroyed by the dragon-shaped phantom with an overwhelming force. At the same time, the dragon-shaped phantom directly pierced through his body under his horrified gaze, shredding his internal organs to pieces.

The battle between Chu Ming and the man in black naturally drew attention from others. Seeing Chu Ming forcefully kill the black-robed man, the remaining men in black who were fighting Red Moon immediately panicked and revealed flaws in their attacks.

"Three Emperors Fist: Yellow Python Kill!"

Taking advantage of the black-robed man’s panic, Red Moon seized the opportunity, with a punch, a desolate aura radiated from her fist to the surroundings, the pervasive desolate atmosphere spread.

Boom

The man in black was directly killed by a punch, his chest turned into a mist of blood.

Huff, huff

Red Moon panted slightly, fighting against a body refining martial artist consumed a lot of physical strength. Seeing the enemies killed by both of them, the three people standing in the distance breathed a sigh of relief and ran quickly over.

Hong Yun gently supported Red Moon and asked with concern, "How are you?"

"I just consumed a bit too much energy, I’ll be fine after resting for a while!" Red Moon waved her hand, indicating she was okay.

While the two were talking, Chu Ming had already searched all the black-robed men, no valuables were found, but he found a badge on each of them, identical to the one he had handed to the Task Elder before.

He secretly guessed in his heart that these people should belong to a demonic organization specifically targeting sect disciples. Since they were assassinated, other teams from the sect must have been ambushed as well, he just hoped they were safe and sound.

"We need to leave here immediately!"

Chu Ming said to the others. These people had failed, but if they had special ways of contacting each other, their whereabouts would be completely exposed. Although Chu Ming’s strength had just made a breakthrough, enough to handle ordinary newly advanced True Dao Martial Artists, he was not arrogant enough to think he was invincible.

Since these people dared to attack the sect disciples, it meant they were not afraid of the sect’s retaliation. The four understood this reasoning, immediately nodded.

Their horses had already run away during the fight, the five had no choice but to use lightweight skill to head towards Ironfire City. Fortunately, the dry forest was only two hundred miles away from Ironfire City, with their speed, they could reach there in two hours.

Not long after Chu Ming and the others left the dry forest, a shadow appeared beside the black-robed men, investigating on their bodies. When he saw the death appearance of the leader, the black shadow paused.

"Killed by a single sword strike, could it be a core disciple of the sect?"

A hoarse voice sounded, the black cloth on his head fell off, revealing a black-faced, dry-skinned man, with cracks in many places, his eyes eerie, flickering like ghost fire, and the most peculiar was the large red tattoo of the word "Blood" on his right cheek, bloody as if real blood was flowing.

"It’s getting more interesting..."

...

Two hours later, Chu Ming and his party reached Ironfire City, which had now entered First Level combat readiness status, countless martial artists stood on the city walls, with a bloody atmosphere filling the air.

As Chu Ming and his party wore the Cyan Yang Sect’s inner sect attire, it was easy for them to be led into the city by a martial artist inside.

"There are five sect teams within Ironfire City, including yours, there are six teams total. Besides you, Liao Wu from Cyan Yang Sect is also in Ironfire City!"

As he walked, the martial artist introduced.

"Is Cyan Yang Sect counted as two teams on our side?"

Hong Yun asked. They had known that while in Li Family Town, Li Lin had told them there were two Cyan Yang Sect teams in Ironfire City, excluding theirs.

"Yes!"

The martial artist was obviously stunned, not understanding why he was asked that. But knowing sect disciples were all proud and arrogant, their matters were clearly not something he could comprehend, so he wisely suppressed his curiosity.

With a clear answer, the five fell silent. Since one team didn’t come, there were only two possibilities: either they died in the beast tide like in Sunset Town, or they were ambushed en route and killed.

Thinking about their ambush on the road, the second possibility seemed more likely. That team must have met a grim fate. In fact, if not for Chu Ming’s unexpected breakthrough to the Fifth Layer of the "Fire Burning True Skill", they too would have faced a grim fate.

Entering the city, they found an inn to stay in. Chu Ming handed the martial artist two lower-grade spirit stones, who was overjoyed and left happily.

Knock, knock, knock

Just as Chu Ming closed the door, a knock was heard. Puzzled, Chu Ming opened the door, revealing a fair face, dressed in white, with intense calm, and a longsword on his back, adding a touch of killing aura.

Liao Wu!
