Chapter 211: Snow Drifting in the World, Chen Shisan’s “Divine Bridge”
“Tsk tsk!”
“Dual-hand sword techniques, ever-changing steps.”
“Meng Yu, you really are infatuated with this pretty boy. You’ve even taught him Kongming Tian’s ultimate techniques.”
“You didn’t, by any chance, give him your body as well?”
Cheng Gong pushed Chen Shisan back, and Cang Hong began to taunt Meng Yu with his words, but at that moment, Meng Yu remained silent with her eyes closed.
Seeing this, the corners of Cang Hong’s mouth curled up slightly.
“No need to speak, once I k*ll this pretty boy, let’s see if you’ll still be quiet.”
“Chirp!”
A bird’s cry sounded from behind Cang Hong.
The blazing three-legged golden crow made the surrounding space dry up within a hundred feet.
“Whoosh!”
Golden flames engulfed Chen Shisan.
Faced with this terrifying fire, Chen Shisan could only release wave after wave of sword qi to block it.
Unfortunately, such defense could not withstand the flames of the three-legged golden crow at all.
“Zii~”
The True Martial Sword and the three-foot green peak were turned red from the burning, and the flesh of Chen Shisan’s palm sizzled.
“Chirp! Chirp!”
The Treasure Mouse, hiding in Chen Shisan’s hair, squeaked in distress from the heat, desperately trying to spit out a “spiritual essence.”
Sadly, after the last battle, it was all out.
The True Martial Sword was too severely injured; after the battle in the Ancient Forbidden Ground, it was a miracle that it survived.
It was precisely because of this that the True Martial Sword had yet to acknowledge Chen Changsheng; it was on the verge of “dying.”
During the battle in Gold Mountain City, the True Martial Sword recognized this stubborn young man and used its last strength to help the boy achieve his first miracle.
In the fight against Cang Hong, the Treasure Mouse used spiritual essence to extend the True Martial Sword’s life, which was Chen Shisan’s sixth miracle.
But now, Chen Shisan had no help.
The Treasure Mouse was powerless, the True Martial Sword was barely surviving, and Meng Yu’s cultivation was sealed.
At this moment, Chen Shisan was at his wits’ end.
“Hahaha!”
“So arrogant! Why aren’t you being arrogant anymore?”
“I can’t wait to see who will come to save you this time.”
Watching Chen Shisan surrounded by flames, Cang Hong laughed loudly.
He was finally able to k*ll this stubborn young man.
From the moment he first saw Chen Shisan, Cang Hong despised him from the bottom of his heart.
Because Cang Hong saw an unyielding backbone in this young man’s eyes.
What right did he have?
A tiny ant, refusing to bow down.
He possessed the Fiery Sun Physique, a prodigy that Huayang Cave Heaven hadn’t seen in a thousand years.
Consolidating all brilliance within himself, he still gave up dignity and lowered his head to gain all of Kongming Tian.
He was far inferior to Cang Hong; what right did he have to not bow down!
The fierce fire licked at his body, and Chen Shisan quietly watched Cang Hong.
d*ath had never frightened Chen Shisan or, rather, when he fought, he only considered how to defeat his opponent.
Now, he had stepped into the Divine Bridge Realm, but the construction of the “Divine Bridge” was just beginning.
With his utterly broken talent, he would likely be trapped in the Divine Bridge Realm for the rest of his life.
Faced with such despair, Chen Shisan recalled what his teacher said a month ago.
“If ‘spring’s origin’ is the beginning of cultivation, then ‘Divine Bridge’ is the key to widening the gap between people.”
“Some build the Divine Bridge using their bloodlines, some with their talents, and others solely with pure spiritual power.”
“Among the many methods, these individuals have all chosen their strengths.”
“So, to cultivate the Divine Bridge to perfection, you must understand what you possess.”
Remembering this, Chen Shisan’s gaze became more resolute.
He didn’t have Meng Yu’s exceptional talent, nor Tianxuan’s miraculous bloodline, and his resources paled in comparison to the wealthy Qian Bao’er.
No resources, no talent, no bloodline, but he still had one heart.
With this understanding, the Divine Bridge he had just started building suddenly expanded rapidly.
Unlike other cultivators’ opaque Divine Bridges, Chen Shisan’s was transparent.
He built this bridge of nothingness with his brand new thoughts.
“Hum!”
The formless sword qi sliced through the raging flames.
Chen Shisan struck, and this time he used the three-foot green peak.
The ancient longsword thrust straight toward Cang Hong.
Ever since he had acquired this three-foot green peak, Chen Shisan could never sense the sword intent within it.
But now, he did.
He sensed a Sword Cultivator, similar to himself, who wielded the sword with intent.
This strikingly similar way of drawing the sword awakened the inherent abilities of the three-foot green peak, guiding Chen Shisan to strike.
“Swish!”
The sword light flashed, and Cang Hong bore a bl**d mark on his forehead.
The unmatched sword qi was mostly blocked by the battle armor Cang Hong wore.
This unknown set of armor saved Cang Hong’s life once again.
Having suffered such a terrifying attack, Cang Hong dared not be reckless now.
He hurriedly summoned all his strength, preparing to k*ll the exhausted Chen Shisan.
“Snow Drifting in the World!”
“Clang~”
Meng Yu struck. She acted at the tenth breath.
The ten breaths of time were a deliberate lie she told to mislead Cang Hong and Chen Shisan.
“Whoosh~”
Raindrops that fell from the sky turned into snowflakes, and the biting cold froze the three-legged golden crow completely.
On this matter, Meng Yu had not lied to Chen Shisan.
She truly was a Sword Cultivator, and a formidable one at that.
Had it not been for Chen Changsheng’s surprise attack, Meng Yu would have had a fighting chance.
“Crack!”
A crack appeared on Cang Hong’s battle armor.
The first crack was left by Chen Shisan with the True Martial Sword, and this time it was left by Meng Yu.
“Pfft~”
bl**d bubbled from the sword wound at his neck, and Cang Hong, covering the injury with his right hand, fled without looking back.
Having suffered two serious blows in quick succession, Cang Hong was utterly unable to continue fighting.
“Smack!”
Chen Shisan fell straight down.
Seeing this, Meng Yu, who had once been so grand, also collapsed to the ground.
In just one month, Meng Yu had barely lifted the seal a little; relying on this weak power to cast “Snow Drifting in the World” was truly too much.
“Little thief, are you dead?”
Meng Yu called out to Chen Shisan, who was not far away.
After a breath, Chen Shisan weakly responded, “Almost dying.”
“I say, your life really is tough. You can’t d*e even from this.”
Cursing with a laugh, Meng Yu regained a little strength and stood up, preparing to take Chen Shisan away from this place.
“Swish!”
Two shadows suddenly leaped from the bushes.
“Chirp!”
The Treasure Mouse swiftly intercepted one of them, but the other bit down firmly on Chen Shisan’s neck.
“Chirp!”
As Chen Shisan was bitten, the Treasure Mouse let out a furious cry and bit down hard on the shadow in its possession.
Then, it shredded the body of the shadow that ambushed Chen Shisan to pieces. Seeing this scene, Meng Yu’s pupils instantly contracted.
“No!”
A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the forest.
The shadow that ambushed Chen Shisan was two snakes, both with flesh lumps on their heads.
The Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Snake, one of the top ten venomous creatures; the poisoned would d*e without exception.
