Chaotic Sword God

From then onwards, the Martial Soul Mountain gained a divine hall, the Neptunean Divine Palace.

Ever since the master of the Neptunean Divine Palace, Xiao Man, arrived on the Martial Soul Mountain, she rarely appeared. She spent most of her time cultivating.

After all the running and everything else she had experienced in the past few years, she deeply understood the importance of personal strength, which was why she worked extremely hard.

As for Zi Yun, she would walk around the Martial Soul Mountain frequently. Aside from visiting the seven other successors, she would spend most of her time strolling around where Jian Chen entered seclusion.

However, Jian Chen entered secluded cultivation right after the negotiation for the alliance ended. He completely ignored the matters happening around him.

Even though Zi Yun had visited where Jian Chen cultivated many times, she never disturbed him. She only stood in the distance, looking at Jian Chen’s figure quietly. After a while, she would leave with some disappointment.

In the blink of an eye, a decade had already passed since the Neptunean Divine Palace and the Martial Soul Mountain established an alliance. Everything had been peaceful on the Martial Soul Mountain. Even though many peak experts knew that the Neptunean Divine Palace was on the Martial Soul Mountain, none of them dared to set foot there.

Jian Chen did not spend these ten years practising the secret techniques involving Martial Soul Force. Instead, he chose to refine his fourth strand of Profound Sword Qi.

He sat on the empty ground as sword Qi swam around him. An invisible sword intent revolved around him; it was more powerful sometimes and weaker at other times. As a result, he would shine with a surging glow from time to time, illuminating the entire Martial Soul Mountain.

After ten years of refinement, he had reached an extremely crucial point in the creation of his fourth strand of Profound Sword Qi.

Ten kilometres away, Zi Yun stood on a rock in a white dress. She possessed beauty that outshone the moon. Even though she was not as pretty as Shangguan Mu’er, she was still utterly enchanting, enough for countless men to worship her.

She stood there quietly as she stared right at Jian Chen with her pitch-black pupils.

“It has been ten years. It has been ten years already. I haven’t struck up a single conversation with him since he left the Neptunean Divine Palace ten years ago. I wonder when he’ll finish cultivating.” Zi Yun sighed inside as she quietly stared at the figure in the distance.

She behaved the same today as any other day. After staring for two hours, she turned around to leave.

However, at this moment, a strand of extremely powerful sword Qi suddenly condensed in the distance. A finger-sized, silver-white sword Qi hovered above Jian Chen’s head, shining with blinding light. It was as dazzling as the sun.

The sword Qi seemed to contain a mysterious power, allowing it to bypass all bodily defences and directly affect the soul.

Zi Yun, who originally wanted to leave, stopped subconsciously. She could not help but look at the strand of sword Qi above Jian Chen’s head, and she immediately felt a piercing pain in her eyes. Even her soul felt like it was being ripped apart. It was as if it had been stabbed by countless sword Qi.

“W- what is this ability? My soul was almost injured from just a glance.” Zi Yun was utterly shocked. She immediately closed her eyes and hid behind a rock in a flash, no longer daring to look at it again.

“I’ve finally condensed my fourth strand of Profound Sword Qi.”

A while later, the devastating sword intent slowly disappeared, and Jian Chen opened his eyes. Now that he had refined his fourth strand of Profound Sword Qi, the strength of the other three strands had increased slightly as well.

“Now, my Profound Sword Qi can cause even greater harm to Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes. If I fought against the Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime from the Gloomwater sect again, it won’t be as difficult as before for me to kill him even if I don’t use Martial Soul Force,” thought Jian Chen. His fourth strand of Profound Sword Qi made his confidence swell.

“The Profound Sword Qi I used back then in the Gloomwater sect was discovered by many peak experts, but not a single one of them recognised its origins. It looks like there are extremely few Grand Primes in the Saints’ World who recognise the Profound Sword Qi.”

“But fair enough. After all, the Profound Sword Qi was invented by the old master of the sword spirits. With his cultivation as a Grand Exalt, only Grand Exalts of the Saints’ World can force him to use the Profound Sword Qi. Grand Primes obviously wouldn’t have the right to learn about it.”

“It looks like there’s no need for me to hide my Profound Sword Qi so much in the future. After all, the Profound Sword Qi isn’t like the twin swords. Not a lot of people know about them,” Jian Chen thought. Afterwards, with another thought, a thin tendril appeared from the Space Ring on his finger. The tendril constantly extended out, turning into an extremely colorful flower that was only three inches tall. It sat in his palm.

This was the Immortal Devouring Orchid.

“You’ve finally reached Godking. You haven’t wasted all my nurturing.” Jian Chen looked at the Immortal Devouring Orchid before waving his hand gently. The Immortal Devouring Orchid immediately dropped onto the ground and rapidly swelled.

In the end, it swelled to several hundred metres tall. Countless tendrils danced around beneath it, wanting to root into the ground. Unfortunately, the Martial Soul Mountain was too tough, and the mountain was protected by a mysterious power. As such, no matter how it tried, it was unable to root down.

“You should be able to devour Primordial realm corpses now. Here’s a First Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime.” Jian Chen waved his hand. Immediately, a Primordial realm corpse flew out and fell onto the ground.

As if the Immortal Devouring Orchid had just seen a source of great nourishment, it became extremely excited. Countless tendrils stretched over and wrapped around the corpse. Some of the roots directly stabbed into the corpse and started sucking away at it.

Afterwards, a thought appeared. After becoming a Godking, the Immortal Devouring Orchid had developed intelligence. Although it could not talk, it could communicate with thoughts.

“What? A corpse isn’t enough?” Jian Chen was stunned, but without any hesitation, he tossed out another corpse. It was also a First Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime.

Immediately, the second corpse was wrapped by the tendrils of the Immortal Devouring Orchid. Afterwards, its huge flower seemed to become a gaping mouth, devouring both corpses in one gulp.

“Jian Chen, w- what is this?” At this moment, Zi Yun arrived before Jian Chen as well. She stared right at the Immortal Devouring Orchid as she showed a look of interest.

“It’s… probably a wondrous plant that I’m raising,” said Jian Chen.

After devouring the two corpses, the Immortal Devouring Orchid seemed to reach its limit. It shook as it shrank, slowly climbing back onto Jian Chen’s right hand and entering the Space Ring again.

Two Primordial realm corpses were indeed its limit. It needed to digest them immediately.

“I feel like it’s very powerful. Even though it only has the presence of an early Godking, I feel like it’s a mid Godking,” said Zi Yun.

“It is indeed extraordinary, or I wouldn’t go to such great lengths to raise it,” said Jian Chen. The Immortal Devouring Orchid grew even faster than he had previously imagined. This filled him with anticipation.

If this continued, the Immortal Devouring Orchid would grow to a level where it could help him before long.

Of course, he had to provide the Immortal Devouring Orchid with enough food first.
