Chapter 3267 – Swords Have Spirits, Weapons Have Souls
“Let’s see whose weapon soul is stronger.”
Jiang Chen glanced at Tantai Jingzang, gripped the Heavenly Dragon Sword and advanced with it. At this moment, the two great weapon souls retreated quickly as if they had seen a devil, but Jiang Chen chased them closely. To be precise, the sword soul of the Heavenly Dragon Sword was suppressing them so much they could not raise their heads at all. That terrifying dragon might was matchless in the world. The two weapon souls could not resist it at all and were directly enveloped by the Heavenly Dragon Sword.
“Spare us…”
A hoarse voice echoed in the great hall, but to Tantai Jingzang it sounded so clear and pleasant. Those two great weapon souls were actually so listless and cowed under Jiang Chen’s sword soul.
“Didn’t you want to kill me before? Now you’re all going to die!”
Jiang Chen said icily.
Jiang Chen’s eyes were full of excitement. These weapon souls were something the others could not avoid fast enough, but for Jiang Chen, for Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword, they were a great tonic. The sword soul of the Heavenly Dragon Sword could definitely devour them completely.
Swords have spirits and weapons have souls, especially Primal Origin Treasures. Every Primal Origin Treasure has a soul of its own. Some have just not awakened yet, and some have weapon souls that are already dead. Primal Origin Treasures like that are quite weak. They may be called Primal Origin Treasures, but they are not much stronger than Peak Origin Divine Tools. At most the difference is in quality.
Only one with its own weapon soul was a true Primal Origin Treasure. The moment the sword soul of Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword had awakened, it had been full of endless sword qi. Jiang Chen did not know just how powerful the Heavenly Dragon Sword was, but these two great weapon souls had given him the answer. These two divine treasures of the Five Directions Great Emperor did not dare to linger in front of the Heavenly Dragon Sword’s sword soul at all. That was enough to show just how powerful and terrifying the Heavenly Dragon Sword’s sword soul was.
“Something yummy! Baby’s going to grow bigger again! Yiwa! Yiwa!”
Even Jiang Chen found the sword soul’s childish voice hard to warm to. Its might left the two weapon souls with no room to resist at all, and yet at a time like this it was still so cute. Jiang Chen knew his sword soul was still in its growth stage, which meant the Heavenly Dragon Sword still had plenty of room to grow. At least for now, among Primal Origin Treasures, there probably was no divine weapon that could match Jiang Chen’s Heavenly Dragon Sword.
In the blink of an eye, the Heavenly Dragon Sword swept across the void, and the two weapon souls were completely devoured. The Heavenly Dragon Sword shone even more brilliantly, and its terrifying sword qi became even more astonishing, overawing all directions.
“That’s simply appalling.”
Tantai Jingzang murmured. Even now she could hardly believe everything in front of her, but it had happened, and that was how it was. This guy was just too frightening. Tantai Jingzang knew nothing about where he really came from, but his loyalty and devotion to his friends was worth admiring.
The sword soul of the Heavenly Dragon Sword had devoured the two weapon souls in an instant. The bodies of Baili Shengyang and Jiahe Dongliu finally fell to the ground, as dead as they could be, because their essence, energy, spirit and souls had all been sucked away by the weapon souls. They were nothing but empty skins.
Tantai Jingzang looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief. This guy was just too handsome, gripping the Heavenly Dragon Sword, looking down on all directions, his momentum like a dragon. That was a true supreme genius.
At this moment, the two of them had finally turned danger into safety. To them, the two great weapon souls had seemed unstoppable, but in Jiang Chen’s hands they were like nothing at all. The difference was simply that between heaven and earth. Tantai Jingzang could not help thinking, how many more methods did this guy have that she did not know about?
Sun Xiaolong bringing Jiang Chen into the Five Directions Great Emperor’s traveling palace would surely have been a rare stroke of luck for the Fossil Sect, but Baichi Huayu had ruined it. That guy could not stand to see others do well, and most likely it was because of her that he held a grudge against Jiang Chen. But Tantai Jingzang had never paid any mind to petty, narrow-minded people like that.
Jiang Chen’s true strength had not yet reached the Half-step Divine Emperor Realm, but his ability left even Divine Emperors far behind. On that point alone, Tantai Jingzang knew that following Jiang Chen, she would definitely not be in danger.
“How about it? I told you I could handle it alone, but you just wouldn’t believe me. Are you scared now by my handsome, dashing side? Hahaha.”
Jiang Chen looked at Tantai Jingzang with a smile. At this moment, a smile finally appeared at the corner of her mouth. It was full of disdain, but Jiang Chen realized it was the first time Tantai Jingzang had smiled.
“You look beautiful when you smile. Why don’t you smile more? We only live once. Isn’t the point of living to be happy? If you’re not happy, what are you living for?”
Jiang Chen said meaningfully.
Tantai Jingzang withdrew her smile again. Even that light smile had been sweet and charming, enough to tug at the heartstrings.
“Everyone’s fate is different. I have no right to laugh at you for being mad, and you have no right to laugh at me for being obsessed. Life has many meanings. Living isn’t necessarily for the sake of being happy.”
Tantai Jingzang said coldly. There seemed to be more behind her words. It really was as she said. That was the way things were.
“Fine, don’t smile then. Where do you get such big insights about life? Forget it, forget it. We should go in and take a look too. By the way, the place those guys went into, is it called the Shichahai Sea?”
Jiang Chen asked with a frown. This one really had an argument for everything. He could not be bothered to argue with her any further.
Tantai Jingzang shook her head.
“No. The Shichahai Sea is an incredibly vast ocean. Legend has it that the Five Directions Great Emperor could connect to the Shichahai Sea, but that doesn’t mean he could hold the Shichahai Sea in his hands. The Shichahai Sea is mysterious and unfathomable, and there are endless legends about it that no one could ever really know. And every time the Shichahai Sea appears, it is accompanied by terrible catastrophes. Some people have wanted to find the Shichahai Sea, but none of them could find any trace of it. And the Five Directions Great Emperor was the last Great Emperor of the Divine World to enter the Shichahai Sea. His strength wasn’t necessarily the greatest in the history of the Divine World, but the secrets he held are what everyone wants to know. Where is the Shichahai Sea? How did he break through the barrier of the Great Emperor Realm? People flock to these questions.”
Tantai Jingzang’s words made Jiang Chen even more curious about this Five Directions Great Emperor. What was this man’s background, to have such a glorious history? Was the Five Directions Great Emperor really so fascinating?
But for now, the first thing the two of them had to do was hurry to catch up with those guys, enter this deep-sea hall and find out what was inside. Whether this was the Shichahai Sea was still hard to say, but if they did not go in, they would never know the secrets inside.
Tantai Jingzang nodded slightly, and Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes. Those guys had better not die too early, or he would not get to cut every one of them into ten thousand pieces himself!
