Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2960: Chapter 2963: Shattered State of Mind

Splashes!

A loud splash sounded as Tang Jie emerged from the water, holding a leaf in his hand. The leaf bore several cuts, yet none fully severed it, leaving it barely connected.

”No, Jiang Chen, something’s off. Why is it harder not to cut through?”

Tang Jie gazed at Jiang Chen, utterly puzzled.

Jiang Chen was lying on the river, supported by a raft formed from droplets of water. Calling it a raft was an understatement; it was more like a large net made of water droplets, eighteen in total, that shaped into a human form to keep Jiang Chen’s body afloat on the water.

Elsewhere on the river, Si Huang’er and others were treading back and forth, each holding a leaf, all marked with barely connecting cuts!

”Tang Jie, is it easier to chop someone in half with one strike or to leave them with a layer of skin still connecting them?”

Jiang Chen opened his eyes, casting a casual glance at Tang Jie.

Since refining the Origin Power, Jiang Chen began training everyone in power control. This training was not about Spiritual Power or Power of the Great Dao. Feng Xuan’er and Yue Muchen were focusing on Domain Power control, while Si Huang’er and the other two were mastering the power fully unified within themselves.

They had reached the threshold of breaking through to the Saint Realm but held back their advancement to enter Void Nether Academy.

”Of course it’s... alright, I get it!”

Tang Jie pouted, floating back to the surface to continue battling the water and leaves.

”The quota competition will commence at Mount Shamen in a quarter of an hour. All students, gather at Mount Shamen!”

A detached voice echoed through the heavens and earth.

”Let’s go to Mount Shamen, using our training method!”

Jiang Chen softly beckoned, and the eighteen droplets lifted his body into the air, flying towards Mount Shamen at the forefront.

”Huh? Traveling like this?”

Tang Jie complained but nonetheless complied.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Everyone swapped for a new leaf, and the river beneath them gently rose, each standing on a square meter of water.

The water was thin, no more than half an inch at most, and it flowed like a river, with Tang Jie and the others standing on it, circling within the square meter. Thin forces appeared in their hands, slicing the leaves with barely connecting cuts.

Thus, six of them flew toward Mount Shamen in an unusual manner.

On Mount Shamen.

Hei Chong and a dozen others arrived quickly after hearing the call. When they saw Jiang Chen and the others arrive, their expressions changed slightly, eventually showing a hint of astonishment.

”What are they doing?”

”Is this training?”

”Isn’t this easy? How is it considered training?”

People started murmuring in confusion.

”What a brilliant training method!”

A voice distinct from the others rang out.

The crowd turned to see that the speaker was Ren Cangsheng of the Origin Continent’s Star Pavilion.

”Brother Ren, what makes this brilliant?”

A Saint Realm expert curiously inquired.

”I couldn’t sense Jiang Chen and the others’ training method, but I did discover something about those three Integration Realm cultivators.”

Ren Cangsheng first explained, then continued, ”It seems their actions on the water surface contain various forces, with powers unified, mingling with Spiritual Power, mental strength, and various Power of the Great Dao.

So many different forces intertwining without merging, instead colliding with each other. While the forces clash, they control the wave fluctuations, keeping the water surface stable without letting a single droplet shoot out—this power control is indeed rare.”

”And simultaneously, using the shockwaves from the force collisions to slice the leaves. It’s not their own power but the aftermath of the collision—meaning they are training for higher-level force control, managing the aftermath of power collisions!”

”This is unimaginable training. How did they come up with this?!”

Ren Cangsheng’s eyes filled with amazement, focusing on Jiang Chen. Before Jiang Chen’s arrival, Feng Xuan’er and the others had never trained this way. He had every reason to believe Jiang Chen taught them.

”This...”

”Training against the aftermath of power collisions?”

”If they master this, wouldn’t controlling their own power become seamless?!”

Numerous people exclaimed in awe, their gazes upon Tang Jie and the others filled with fervor. However, they didn’t dare focus on Jiang Chen like Ren Cangsheng did. Jiang Chen’s recent slaughter left everyone deeply afraid of this God of Slaughter!

Nevertheless, many felt a longing because mastery of power control is a direction that cultivators across all realms must pursue; it’s the best way to enhance combat power, given equivalent strength.

Buzz!

A concealed Divine Sense emitted from a Saint Expert’s body, probing toward Tang Jie and the three Integration Realm cultivators.

Ren Cangsheng furrowed his brows slightly, glancing at that person.

He had sensed the power fluctuations earlier because Tang Jie and the others hadn’t perfected their power control, allowing the fluctuations to spread, but now another was using Divine Sense to investigate—this was clearly an intrusion into another’s cultivation method!

Moreover, everyone’s training involved collisional power mixing. Using Divine Sense to probe would expose the paths they controlled!

Buzz!

A grand aura exploded suddenly, pressing intimidatingly upon the Saint Expert attempting the Divine Sense probe.

Buzzing!

With relentless killing intent enveloping him, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes, seated on the net of water droplets, coldly gazing at the man.

Bone-chilling cold permeated his being, causing the man to tremble violently in fear, his eyes filled with panic as he cried, ”No, no! Jiang Chen, I mean no harm, I truly mean no harm!”

”Do you know what kind of enmity it is to pry into someone else’s training?”

Jiang Chen spoke indifferently.

Thud!

The man’s legs gave out, kneeling on the ground in panic, ”Brother Jiang, I was wrong! I was wrong! Spare me! Please spare me!”

All around, the crowd watched him kneel, eyes revealing complex emotions.

He’s finished!

Ren Cangsheng inwardly sighed.

A Saint Realm expert crumbling before the battle, even as Jiang Chen had not fully exerted his Domain pressure, yet he bowed first to apologize.

In that moment, his Dao Heart shattered. Jiang Chen would become his Heart Demon, one he could never overcome, unless he could kill Jiang Chen himself; otherwise, he would never break through his realm.

For once he breaks through, the Heart Demon Tribulation will surely come, and his tribulation is Jiang Chen!
