Chapter 162: Seizing the Cultivation Technique, My Name is Ji Wuming

The Divine Concealment Art activated!

Zhou Chen chuckled as his figure rapidly changed, transforming into the appearance of Ji Wuming.

It was time to let Blood Wuhen experience what it felt like to be set up by the master of the game.

…

The Fentian Region, located in the south of the Imperial Road, was a vast and boundless group of volcanoes.

The ground was cracked, and countless streams of magma erupted forth.

The occasional appearance of terrifying Yao Beasts, combined with high temperatures capable of burning through protective Spiritual Qi, was enough to deter most Cultivators.

But for Zhou Chen, who possessed the Samadhi True Fire, he was like a fish in water in such a harsh environment.

Following the precise description on the opportunity panel, Zhou Chen quickly locked onto Blood Wuhen's location.

At this moment, Blood Wuhen was standing on the edge of a violently erupting crater, tightly clutching a Dao-patterned Jade Slip in his hand, his eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement.

"Hahaha, Heaven blesses me, Blood Wuhen! It is actually a Saint Rank Top-Grade sword technique!"

However, just as Blood Wuhen was feeling ecstatic, a voice suddenly rang out behind him: "A mere ant like you is also worthy of touching such an Opportunity?"

Blood Wuhen's body shook violently as he spun around!

He saw a handsome young man in white standing with his hands behind his back, looking at him with contempt.

"Who are you?!"

Blood Wuhen shouted sharply, his muscles tensing instantly as his Saint Realm third-level cultivation base surged, his powerful blood-red Qi faintly emanating from his body.

"Ji Wuming."

Zhou Chen mimicked Ji Wuming's arrogant tone and said to Blood Wuhen, "Hand over the Jade Slip and I'll grant you a whole corpse; otherwise, I'll slaughter your entire clan!"

"Ji Wuming of the Sword Clan?!"

Blood Wuhen's face instantly turned pale.

He knew all too well what that name represented.

A peerless Prodigy of the Sword Clan, one of the Twelve Imperial Clans; he never expected to run into this bringer of calamity here.

But how could he give up the Saint Rank Top-Grade sword technique he had worked so hard to obtain just because of a few words?

Blood Wuhen also had his pride.

Thinking of this, Blood Wuhen steeled his heart; he had to take a chance.

"You want it? Come and take it with your own skill!"

Blood Wuhen gritted his teeth, and his blood-colored longsword suddenly unsheathed!

His Major Achievement Blood Prison Sword Intent erupted without reservation, turning into a sea of blood that blotted out the sky.

However, Zhou Chen only revealed a cold sneer.

"A mere grain of rice, how dare you compete with the bright moon?"

Before his voice could fade, a Sword Intent far more terrifying, pure, and suffocating than the Major Achievement Blood Prison Sword Intent erupted from Zhou Chen's body.

Perfection-level Slaughter Sword Intent!

In the next moment, the sky-blotting sea of blood was instantly dispersed.

"What?! How is this possible? Per… Perfection Slaughter Sword Intent?!"

Blood Wuhen's pupils dilated suddenly, a look of horror appearing on his face.

His proud Major Achievement Blood Prison Sword Intent was actually suppressed in an instant.

Were the geniuses of the Imperial Clans truly this terrifying?!

"Die!"

Zhou Chen struck, unleashing a sword strike. A sword light dozens of feet high, carrying the power to destroy everything, cleaved toward Blood Wuhen.

In an instant, Blood Wuhen felt the Spiritual Qi in the air suddenly freeze as countless killing intents surged toward him from all directions.

Escape!

Blood Wuhen's first reaction was to flee, but his years of combat intuition told him that if he chose to run now, he would be heavily injured if not killed.

I'll risk it!

"Boundless Blood Sea!"

Blood Wuhen roared, waving the longsword in his hand.

Streaks of blood-colored Sword Qi condensed around him, forming a sea of blood that swept toward Zhou Chen.

This Cultivation Technique was the companion sword technique of the Blood Spirit Scripture; its power was immense, and it was one of Blood Wuhen's few trump cards.

However, in the face of Zhou Chen's Perfection Slaughter Sword Intent, his resistance seemed utterly weak.

Clang—

With a loud bang, Blood Wuhen was sent flying hundreds of meters, and the longsword in his hand was snapped directly into two pieces.

"Impossible!"

Defeated in a single move, Blood Wuhen spat out blood, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

"Weakness is the original sin."

Zhou Chen walked slowly toward him. "To kill trash like you, three breaths are more than enough."

Blood Wuhen's face was pale. He knew he couldn't keep the Opportunity before him; as long as the green mountains remained, one wouldn't lack for firewood.

"Since you want it so much, take it! Ji Wuming, I will remember you!"

He decisively threw the Jade Slip far away, then quickly performed the Black Abyss Holy Land's secret technique, the Black Abyss Blood Escape, turning into a streak of blood light and fleeing frantically in the opposite direction!

But how could Zhou Chen let him leave so easily?

"Ant, die for me!"

Boom!

An incredibly condensed Slaughter Sword Qi struck first, accurately hitting the center of Blood Wuhen's back!

Puff—

Blood Wuhen spat out another mouthful of blood and burned his essence blood again. Using the force of the impact, his escape speed increased by another thirty percent, turning into an almost invisible thread of blood that vanished into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Zhou Chen did not choose to continue the pursuit. His goal was Blood Wuhen's Opportunity; since he couldn't kill Blood Wuhen for the time being, he wasn't in a hurry.

With a flash of his figure, Zhou Chen easily sucked the Jade Slip into his hand.

The moment Zhou Chen obtained the Jade Slip, the System's notification sounded simultaneously.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully intercepting the Child of Destiny Blood Wuhen's Opportunity: Killing Sword Technique. Triggering Ten-Thousand-Fold Return!]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the Imperial Rank Top-Grade sword technique — Azure Lotus Sword Scripture!]

"Holy crap?! Imperial Rank Top-Grade?"

Even though Zhou Chen was mentally prepared, an excited expression couldn't help but appear in his eyes.

He thought he might get something good, but he didn't expect his luck to explode, giving him the ultimate prize in one go.

An Imperial Rank Top-Grade sword technique!

It could be said to be the highest-level Legacy Cultivation Technique in the Tianxuan Continent!

After a brief look, Zhou Chen found that this Azure Lotus Sword Scripture was infinitely mysterious, and the threshold for cultivation was also extremely high; the primary condition was to have mastered at least one Sword Intent at the Perfection level just to begin.

But for Zhou Chen, who had mastered the Slaughter Sword Intent and the Great River Sword Intent, there was no threshold at all. The Azure Lotus Sword Scripture seemed to be tailor-made for him.

As for the Saint Rank Top-Grade Killing Sword Technique, even a dog wouldn't practice it!

Zhou Chen decided to find a place to study it properly. With a flicker of his figure, he disappeared without a trace.

Dozens of miles away, Blood Wuhen only dared to slow down slightly after sensing that Zhou Chen's aura had finally disappeared, yet he coughed up another mouthful of clotted blood.

He looked back in the direction where Zhou Chen was, his eyes filled with venomous hatred.

"Ji! Wu! Ming!"

Taking someone's Opportunity was like killing their parents, let alone a Saint Rank Top-Grade sword technique.

When Blood Wuhen shouted these words, he almost crushed his molars. He could feel that this sword technique was likely the best Opportunity of his life, yet it was snatched by "Ji Wuming" just like that.

How could he not hate him!

This humiliation was like a bucket of cold water, completely extinguishing the pride Blood Wuhen had always held.

Become stronger!

He must become stronger at any cost!

…

On the other side, Zhou Chen had already found a secret Immortal Cave and happily began to comprehend the Azure Lotus Sword Scripture.

The Azure Lotus Sword Scripture was divided into six layers. Even the first layer's power was terrifying, and it could even condense protective Azure Lotus Sword Qi, integrating offense and defense with profound mystery.

As expected of an Imperial Rank Top-Grade Cultivation Technique, Zhou Chen couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

Combining the Azure Lotus Sword Scripture with his Perfection Sword Intent, even facing the Saint Realm eighth level would likely not be much of a problem.
