Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2605: Chapter 2608: See You in the Arena

To sever the thunder, one must first sow the seed!

The initiation into the Thunder Tribulation Sword requires the condensation of a Tribulation Thunder Seed. Typically, a cultivator can only encounter tribulation lightning during a breakthrough, otherwise they have to search for rare opportunities created by heaven and earth.

And this Old Locust Tree is such an opportunity.

Jiang Chen had inquired Jian Cangqiong about the formation of this Old Locust Tree, but regrettably, even Jian Cangqiong was unaware of how it came to be. It seemed to have existed since the academy’s founding.

Zi La La!

Suddenly, the sword shadow on Jiang Chen’s Thunder Path Great Dao Wheel flickered briefly. After a flash of lightning, the sword shadow gradually contracted into a small, solid sword at the center of the Great Dao Wheel.

Phew!

Finally, it was completely condensed. Next is the nurturing phase!

Jiang Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and shifted his thoughts.

Zi La La!

The thunder on the mountain peak converged entirely towards Jiang Chen’s surrounding Great Dao Wheel, especially from the Old Locust Tree below, bursting out with a magnificent beam of thunder that directly charged into Jiang Chen’s Great Dao Wheel.

Buzz Buzz Buzz!

The Great Dao Wheel shook violently, seeming as if it would collapse momentarily.

”Whoa!”

Jiang Chen was startled, and a halo flew out from his body, encompassing the surrounding Great Dao Wheel.

Buzz!

The tremors of the Great Dao Wheel gradually ceased.

Knowing even the Dao Rhythm-enhanced Great Dao Wheel had absorbed to its limit, Jiang Chen willed the Great Dao Wheel back into his body.

”Just wait for it to be properly nurtured next. To truly master this Thunder Tribulation Sword, I’ll likely need to find other rare thunder opportunities, like the Sea of Thunder in the Extraterritorial Battlefield. Can’t miss it when I venture there!”

Jiang Chen opened his eyes and smiled slightly.

Hmm?

Suddenly sensing something, Jiang Chen looked up to see several figures standing at the mountain path’s peak outside the formation he set up.

Swish!

With a swift movement, Jiang Chen leaped over.

”Greetings, Little Princess, greetings, Senior...”

He greeted them and looked questioningly at Jian Cangqiong.

”It’s the Little Princess who seeks you,”

Jian Cangqiong chuckled.

Jin Ang had just promised regarding student training issues, so there was no need to approach Jiang Chen again.

”You just... was forming the Thunder Path Great Dao Wheel?”

Cheng Huang’er looked at Jiang Chen with a complex expression.

”The Thunder Path Great Dao Wheel was formed back near the Abandoned Plains. Just now, I was perceiving and absorbing the Thunderous Force.”

Jiang Chen replied candidly. His identity as the Son of Heavenly Dao, though not known to all, was surely known to Cheng Huang’er, making it unnecessary to hide.

”How many Great Dao have you comprehended?”

Cheng Huang’er asked nervously. ”Is that all seven, the total you have comprehended?”

”Ten, and I ask that you all keep it confidential!”

Jiang Chen truthfully revealed.

”Ten?”

”Whoa, ten?!”

They looked at Jiang Chen in shock, faces full of disbelief.

”Mr Jiang, is it the Seven Fundamental Great Paths, Two Fundamental Extreme Paths, and the Origin Dao Spatial Path?”

Elder Zhu trembled and asked eagerly.

Jiang Chen glanced at Elder Zhu and nodded lightly: ”Yes, these are the ten.”

”Perfect comprehension! Perfect insight indeed!”

Elder Zhu’s eyes shone brightly, full of joyful exclamations.

Suddenly, Elder Zhu’s expression turned solemn as he earnestly advised: ”Mr Jiang, you may possibly continue to comprehend, but don’t pursue other Great Paths too much. Sometimes greed isn’t a virtue!”

”Thank you for the reminder, Senior. An elder already warned me—nine is the limit, ten is full. Had I not set aside the Path of Ice, I couldn’t have reached the full ten Great Dao to condense the Divine Ring.”

Jiang Chen chuckled and replied.

”Nine is the limit, ten is full! That’s an ancient saying. How do you know it? Who was the elder you mentioned?”

Elder Zhu looked at Jiang Chen with surprise.

Jiang Chen smiled without speaking.

”Brother Zhu, that’s enough.”

Jin Ang calmly reminded.

”Oh, my apologies for my indiscretion,”

Elder Zhu realized his mistake.

”Little Princess, is there something you need from me?”

Jiang Chen did not dwell on the matter and turned to Cheng Huang’er.

”To see if you were dead,”

Cheng Huang’er glared at Jiang Chen with some resentment.

”Huh?”

Confused, Jiang Chen looked at Cheng Huang’er.

Darn, how did I offend you?

”Haha!”

Elder Zhu chuckled: ”Mr Jiang, don’t take it to heart. This girl always thinks she comes from a better family than yours, of equal Heavenly Dao power. Naturally, she believes you’re no match. She anticipated your growth to challenge you but found she overestimated herself—it’s not you who’s inferior, rather she, and now she’s a bit upset!”

Jiang Chen heard this and smiled softly.

”Who’s upset with him?!”

Cheng Huang’er muttered softly, then exasperatedly said: ”Jiang Chen, listen closely. I’ll only say it once; miss it, it’s your loss!”

”Your master and others, after leaving the Abandoned Plains...”

”To assassinate me?”

Jiang Chen raised his brows and smiled lightly: ”Can they hire Saints to kill me?”

”That’s impossible! At best, they might manage an Integration Realm Peak,”

Cheng Huang’er spoke with disdain.

”How many ever come will remain there!”

Jiang Chen shrugged, casting a light smile toward Jin Ming and the others.

Jin Ming and the others also grinned, their eyes flashing coldly.

”However, it seems there will be no chance. The time for the Canglan Domain’s alchemy competition nears, requiring Elder Jin to tear through space for rapid travel, missing any encounter with them!”

Jiang Chen’s eyes flashed fiercely as he sneered: ”Nevertheless, since Meng Changde holds such hatred, he surely will track my whereabouts. My promise to assist Fire Phoenix and Elder Su isn’t a secret; Meng Changde likely knows. Missing a chance to intercept me en route, he’ll return to Canglan Domain!”

”You intend to kill him?”

Cheng Huang’er asked Jiang Chen with astonishment.

Jiang Chen stated matter-of-factly: ”Yes, if he aims to kill me, why keep him alive?”

”You’re not afraid of angering Meng Youyuan?”

Cheng Huang’er asked quietly.

”Not at all!”

Jin Ang suddenly chimed in: ”I’ve encountered Meng Youyuan before, although he’s entered the Saint Monarch realm, he’s no match for me. If he dares act against Mr Jiang, then he shall be cut down to eliminate future troubles!”

Jian Cangqiong was momentarily surprised, poised to speak but upon glancing at Jiang Chen, remained silent.

Although Meng Youyuan was a former vice-dean and now a Saint Elder at Changling Academy, if he sought to harm Jiang Chen, then killing him would be justified.

Cheng Huang’er glanced at Jin Ang, unable to discern his strength, but since Jin Ang mentioned Meng Youyuan’s capabilities, it indicated at least parity.

”Alright then, no need for further worry. I await you in Canglan City, and I won’t yield my position as Divine Infant Realm Peak’s foremost!”

Cheng Huang’er declared, full of battle spirit, looking at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly: ”I’ll see you in the arena.”
