Chapter 155: Perfect Sword Intention, Overcoming the Inner Demon Tribulation

“Congratulations, Host, for acquiring Perfection-level Slaughter Sword Intent!”

Boom!

Terrifying killing intent shot straight into the sky!

The Sword Intent within Zhou Chen’s body began to undergo earth-shattering changes, as his Slaughter Sword Intent instantly reached the Perfection Realm.

Not only that, but nourished by the Primordial Sword Embryo, his Grand River Sword Intent also rapidly reached Perfection.

The two Perfection-level Sword Intents intertwined within his body, forming an unprecedentedly terrifying aura.

After Zhou Chen finished absorbing, a thumb-sized wisp of gray-white Luck from the broken sword actively flew into Zhou Chen’s Emperor Seal, which instantly changed from bronze to silver.

Zhou Chen slowly opened his eyes, and a vast Sword Intent surged out from within him.

Just by slightly circulating his Sword Intent, the broken sword in front of him was instantly riddled with holes.

“Is this the power of Perfection Slaughter Sword Intent?”

He stretched out his palm, and with a thought.

A pure to the extreme Slaughter Sword Intent condensed in his palm, as if it could annihilate everything in the world.

This Sword Intent was so dense it almost materialized, forming an illusory sword shadow.

Perfection Slaughter Sword Intent!

It was countless times stronger than the Sword Intent he had comprehended at the Heavenly Secret Holy Land before.

“Slaughter Sword Intent Major Achievement, this trip was not in vain.”

Zhou Chen’s lips curved into a slight smile.

Originally, his Sword Intent was only Major Achievement Grand River Sword Intent, and its power was already astonishing. Now, not only did his Grand River Sword Intent leap to the Perfection Realm, but he also acquired complete Slaughter Sword Intent. How could his strength not have increased by more than one level?

“Someone’s coming.”

Zhou Chen’s heart stirred, and his Divine Sense perceived three auras rapidly approaching from afar.

It was Ji Wuming, Bai Yuting, and Ye Xuan.

Although the Starry Sky Emperor Road involved random teleportation, the three of them quickly converged. The Imperial Clan had countless treasures, so they naturally possessed special positioning methods.

Zhou Chen quickly restrained his aura, activating the Divine Concealment Art, preparing to leave.

However, just then, a strong urge to Breakthrough suddenly surged within him.

The two Perfection Sword Intents, coupled with the energy from the Primordial Sword Embryo, were actually forcing him to Breakthrough to the first layer of the Saint Realm!

“No, a Breakthrough now would expose me. This is really not the time.”

Zhou Chen forcibly suppressed the urge to Breakthrough, and his figure flickered, disappearing into the ruins.

Almost at the same time he left, three figures landed at the edge of Broken Sword Peak.

“This is the place.”

A hint of excitement flashed in Ji Wuming’s eyes.

According to the ancient records of the Ji Family, a Sword Emperor once perished here, and his Legacy was hidden within this Broken Sword Peak.

Furthermore, with the intelligence provided by a certain Holy Land to the Sword Clan during the last Central Continent Resource War, Ji Wuming was certain that there was an Opportunity here.

“Wuming, be careful.”

Ye Xuan reminded him, “The Sword Intent here is too dense. A slight carelessness could lead to the Sword Intent entering your body.”

Ji Wuming nodded, slowly walking towards a stone platform at the foot of Broken Sword Peak.

On the stone platform lay a rusty broken sword.

Ji Wuming frowned deeply; he clearly felt the terrifying Slaughter Sword Intent.

“Someone was here just now, and their Sword Intent cultivation is extremely high.”

Ji Wuming walked to the broken sword and reached out to touch it.

However, the inside of the broken sword was already empty.

“Impossible!”

Ji Wuming’s expression changed drastically. He came here for this Primordial Sword Embryo, and now it had been snatched by someone else.

No one dared to deceive the Sword Clan, and with the lingering Sword Intent, the answer was already obvious.

“Who is it? Who exactly is it?!”

Ji Wuming roared, and terrifying Sword Intent swept across the entire Broken Sword Peak.

Bai Yuting and Ye Xuan exchanged glances; it was the first time they had seen Ji Wuming so agitated.

“Wuming, what happened?”

Bai Yuting asked in confusion.

“Someone stole my Opportunity in advance. There’s still residual Sword Intent here, so they must have left recently.”

Ji Wuming gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with dense killing intent.

He could sense that the owner of that Slaughter Sword Intent just now was definitely no weaker than him in cultivation.

In fact, in terms of the purity of Sword Intent, he even surpassed him, which he, being concerned about his Face, naturally wouldn’t admit.

“Not many people can get ahead of us in the Dead Emperor Cave.”

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “Could it be a Prodigy from another Imperial Clan? Is it Lei Ming?”

“Hmph, no matter who it is, anyone who dares to touch my things should be prepared to die.”

Ji Wuming snorted coldly, and his figure flashed, leaving Broken Sword Peak.

On the other side, Zhou Chen had already arrived in a secluded valley.

Zhou Chen tried to enter the Guiyi Secret Realm several times, only to find that due to the rule suppression of the Starry Sky Emperor Road, he could not enter the Guiyi Secret Realm, and could only put in or take out items.

Although the Spiritual Qi in the Starry Sky Emperor Road was very dense, Zhou Chen’s Divine Sense was also very keen, and he could feel a faint trace of Death Qi within it.

Fortunately, Zhou Chen had the “Tai Chu Creation Sutra”, which could continuously purify Spiritual Qi, so this level of Death Qi would not have any effect on him.

After confirming that no one was around, he sat cross-legged and began to regulate the surging energy within his body.

Old Man Dao Xuan had told Zhou Chen that breaking through from Quasi-Saint to Saint Realm was extremely perilous.

Not only would he have to experience the Heart Demon Tribulation, Primordial Spirit Tribulation, Spirit Tribulation, but also the Lightning Tribulation.

The intensity of the Lightning Tribulation was related to the Cultivator’s Foundation; the better the Foundation, the higher the intensity of the Lightning Tribulation.

The other few were fine, as they tested the Cultivator's Foundation, and Zhou Chen was not worried at all.

But the Lightning Tribulation was different. The terrifying scene of Zhou Chen condensing his chaos dao infant was still vivid in his mind, and even though Zhou Chen's strength had greatly increased, he did not dare to be careless.

Breaking through from the Quasi-Saint Realm to the Saint Realm usually required overcoming these three hurdles to truly enter the Saint Realm.

Each hurdle was extremely dangerous; a slight mistake could lead to death and the dissipation of the Dao.

Earlier, taking advantage of the Opportunity of the two great Sword Intents reaching Perfection, Zhou Chen vaguely sensed the Opportunity.

“Since the Opportunity has been stolen, why not try to Breakthrough here?” Thinking this, Zhou Chen instantly made a decision.

He took a deep breath, activated the “Tai Chu Creation Sutra”, and the spiritual power within his body began to circulate wildly.

Boom!

A terrifying aura erupted from Zhou Chen, and the entire valley seemed to begin to tremble.

The next moment.

Bursts of rumbling suddenly came from the Void Realm.

Invisible tribulation clouds gathered above the valley.

The Heart Demon Tribulation had arrived!

Zhou Chen’s consciousness was instantly dragged into a bizarre illusion.

The scenes before his eyes constantly shifted.

He saw the various unwillingnesses of his former self.

He saw the bitter struggles after coming to this world.

“Hahaha, trash, how does it feel to be trampled under my feet?!”

“You’re just trash, always trash!”

The scene of Ye Chen slapping his Face swollen reappeared.

“Zhou Chen, do you think you can become stronger by stealing my Opportunity? Ridiculous! Die.”

Even Xue Wuhen appeared, roaring at Zhou Chen with all his might.

Zhou Chen’s expression was as calm as still water, as if he was watching TV with great interest.

“Heart Demon Tribulation? Is that all?”

He smiled faintly.

“Heart Demon? Mere ants. Have you ever heard of 996 and 007? Have you ever seen version T0?”

“Have you ever heard of the suppression from a leader?”
