"Clone incarnation!"
From behind, a sharp sword separated the yin and yang of heaven and earth. The black figure that was flying towards him suddenly stopped. At the critical moment, he formed an incarnation. With his palms carrying unparalleled majesty, he powerfully blocked it.
"boom!"
In a life-and-death confrontation, He saw the direction of the divine sword. He cut through the boundless wind and clouds with one sword, directly splitting the incarnation into two halves. Blood flew into the air, but evaporated in an instant.
"Want to run!"
Jiang Chen snorted coldly, stepped forward, and moved his disillusioned figure in the void. Wanting to intercept the black figure, Sanheng Zhaoshi took action, his sharp edge becoming more and more sharp.
The black shadow in front wanted to escape, and it was difficult to use many magical powers. There was no way to stop the sharpness of the magic weapon. Not long after, he was struck by Jiang Chen several times with swords. In a flash, he used the blood escape method and disappeared into the dark night.
"hateful!"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but curse secretly, but there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't be too presumptuous in the important place of the imperial city. He couldn't use some powerful divine powers. Otherwise, how could he let the other party escape under his nose
Even so, the scope of this battle has been wide enough, and it has already shocked countless residents in the city, not to mention the trialists. Many people looked here and waited, and some rushed over, wanting to To lend a helping hand, the most important thing is to kill the mysterious assassin.
"kill!"
The city guards naturally arrived, but unfortunately, although they responded within the shortest possible time, they were still a step too late.
Jiang Chen was the only one left standing in the field holding a sword, and at his feet lay a corpse that had been split into two halves.
"what happened?"
A bronze soldier asked in a deep voice.
There were shadows under the starry sky, and hundreds of testers came and surrounded the place.
"Someone assassinated me just now, but I blocked it."
Jiang Chen spoke calmly, but there was a power in his words that made the scene fall into silence. It was like a layer of haze floating in the city, making people feel depressed.
Recently, the mysterious assassin has taken action twice in a row, killing two people silently. They are both peerless geniuses, and one of them has a tyrannical cultivation that has reached the Taoist realm. This makes all the trialists feel guilty. Danger, for fear of being assassinated and capsized in the gutter.
In a single line, Jiang Chen encountered a mysterious assassin, but was able to repel him unharmed. This in itself is a symbol of strength. The eyes of many people looking at Jiang Chen have changed several times. After all, being able to become the target of a mysterious assassin has proven his worth, and the assassin considers him a threat.
"Is this the mysterious assassin?"
Looking at the body split in half on the ground, someone couldn't help but said with a bit of surprise: "You actually killed him?"
"No."
Jiang Chen responded calmly: "This is just an incarnation of him. Although I don't know what secret method he used, it is really weird and terrifying. If I hadn't been prepared in advance, I might have been attacked by him. "
"this... ... .."
After hearing this, all the strong men were shocked and confused. They wanted to ask more questions, but they saw that Jiang Chen had already left after handing over the body that was split in two to the city guards.
When he returned to the inn, it happened that Fang Han successfully broke through the Taoist realm and broke out. He learned that Jiang Chen had been assassinated and quickly came to care. The two talked about the mysterious assassin. Jiang Chen spoke highly of the assassin's strength and repeatedly warned Fang Han that the assassin was not an easy enemy to deal with.
During the meeting with Jiang Chen's master and apprentice, Fang Han had a fairly good understanding of Jiang Chen's character. Seeing Jiang Chen's high regard for the mysterious assassin, he suddenly became wary.
"You don't have to worry too much. He was beheaded by me and took a few more blows from me. Although he is not dead, he is definitely not going to be in trouble. At least, he won't be able to go out and kill people randomly in a short time."
Jiang Chen frowned and said, "Now, I'm only worried that if he comes just to assassinate me, that's all. But if he uses this to highlight my specialness, attract others' attention, create competitors for me in all directions, and become an obvious target. , then this matter smacks of conspiracy."
The next few days were peaceful, and no more bloodshed occurred. All the trialists had regained their energy and were waiting for the trial ground to open. However, the Lord of the City never showed up and did not say anything. .
Maybe they were getting impatient with waiting. Many trialists no longer retreated, but chose to take to the streets. They were looking for news and wanted to know some secrets about the trial ground.
This is not a simple matter. In the First Imperial City, this is the biggest taboo. Even the residents in the city dare not mention it easily for fear of causing big trouble.
But even so, he still couldn't bear the curiosity of the trialists.
Master Jiang Chen and Fang Han were no exception. They separated, one went to the east of the city and the other to the west, hoping to find some useful information.
On the streets in the east of the city, Jiang Chen met a human who looked like a scribe. He was the one who kindly reminded him and Fang Han, master and disciple, when they first encountered the Eighteen Forbidden Spirit Riders.
Although they came to the First Imperial City, Jiang Chen and Fang Han didn't know much about many things. The master and apprentice walked on a deserted ancient road and met no other travelers. However, those prosperous roads in other directions, But there are many fellow travelers who have a lot of information thanks to their predecessors.
"Why are so many people coming this time?"
Jiang Chen has heard that in the past, although there were many testers who came to try the eternal ancient road, they were only a few thousand at most. Tens of thousands was already the peak, but this time, more than 30,000 people came.
"The rainbow rain is coming, which means that another great catastrophe of the era is coming. In the extreme universe, all the major forces are trying their best to cultivate their descendants. The Eternal Ancient Road is the perfect place."
The scribe spoke with a hint of sadness in his words: "Furthermore, I heard that this time's Great Tribulation of the Era is different from the past. Many powerful forces have discovered that there are a large number of reincarnators active in all the heavens and worlds. There are even traces of it, and it is even very possible that reincarnators have entered the extreme universe, which will cause great turmoil!"
"Reincarnation..."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but change his face slightly, because the body of gods and demons that he lost in the immortal world was a reincarnation. In essence, he can actually be regarded as a reincarnation.
"That's right."
The scribe said: "A long time ago, in the Holy City of Origin, there was a high-ranking Emperor of the Samsara Universe, who was in charge of all the heavens and worlds, and the cycle of life and death. Legend has it that he wanted to transcend the Universe, so he secretly built countless reincarnation institutions to gather them together. He killed a large number of reincarnations, but in the end, he lost control and started a war."
"That was the most massive battle in the history of Jizhou. All the practitioners in the entire Jizhou world were involved, with countless casualties. Even the Emperor of Zhou died a lot. At that time, Jizhou floated down. The rain of blood lasted for three full years, polluting all the heavens and worlds, causing many worlds to be broken, to perish, and to undergo changes."
"That battle will be called the Battle of Reincarnation by later generations!"
"The battle of reincarnation..."
This is not the first time Jiang Chen heard it, but this time it seems to be different from what he heard in the past. But for him, it is still rewarding. He believes that one day, he will be able to restore the original reincarnation war. the truth.
However, what is important right now is the trial of the Eternal Ancient Road. Because he has refined the Holy Body of King Yu, there is no obstacle to his cultivation before that. His cultivation level has already been promoted to the realm of Taoist Master on the way to the First Imperial City. , However, this is not enough, he must fully master the Yuwang Holy Body as soon as possible.
In the trial field, the competition among the powerful forces inevitably resulted in continuous battles. He could just take this opportunity to achieve his goal in one fell swoop. If he could seize the inheritance opportunity left by the ancient Emperor Zhou, it would be the icing on the cake.
"You have to be careful!"
The scribe reminded: "As a human race, I don't want to hide it from you, because your previous performance was too outstanding. Many strong people have already regarded you as a competitor that must be eradicated. In the trial field, they are likely to join forces to fight against you. If you take action, you will face huge dangers."
None of the cultivators who came here were simple, and every one of them could be regarded as a qualified opponent. What's more, being besieged by a group of people, Jiang Chen could foresee that the road ahead for him would be difficult!
"I'm not afraid."
But Jiang Chen didn't feel afraid at all. On the contrary, it aroused the fighting spirit in his heart: "A joint attack means that they are afraid of me. I have confidence in my own strength, no matter who my opponent is. If you really offend me then, I will kill them all!"
"Awesome!"
The scribe gave him a thumbs up: "What I, Liang Feiyu, admire the most are brave men like you. It seems that there is never fear in people like you, only the courage to move forward. Then I will I wish you success in passing the trial and embarking on the road to becoming an emperor."
"Thanks to you, I got a lot of information from you. I'll treat you to a drink!"
Unable to refuse, Jiang Chen took the scribe Liang Feiyu and went straight to the largest restaurant in the city.
"Zui Xian Tower!"
The largest restaurant in the First Imperial City was built under the supervision of the city lord himself. It is an official restaurant and its quality is so high that it cannot be compared with ordinary private restaurants.
This Drunken Immortal Tower is suspended in the center of a street in the east of the city. From a distance, it appears to be a luxurious palace. It contains all kinds of wonders and fine wines from all over the world, attracting countless people.
Jiang Chen's treat could not be shabby, so he took Liang Feiyu and went straight to the highest floor of the pavilion.
This floor of the pavilion is not accessible to ordinary people, not only because of the high price, but also because it is already occupied by the most powerful trialists.
When Jiang Chen came, there were already many people sitting at the tables in the pavilion. There were some arrogant and powerful trialists sitting at a table alone, and some were allied with the La faction.
"Who is the assassin? I think many people should be aware of it. Who else could it be besides Jiang Chen? He said that he repelled the assassin and killed the assassin's incarnation. It was obviously a show!"
When Fang Fu came in, Jiang Chen heard someone mentioning himself. He followed the sound and saw that the person speaking was none other than the knight who killed the Sirius.
The knight saw Jiang Chen at a glance, and the cold light in his eyes disappeared. His mount, Sirius, was shot to death by Jiang Chen in public. This was undoubtedly a great shame and humiliation for him.
At this moment, there are seven or eight people at the table with him, all of them are extraordinary figures. This is not something surprising. After all, almost every weak person who can come here, even the Taoist master, must have it in his hands. He possesses great killing weapons and great supernatural powers, and must not be underestimated.
"Brother Yanyang is right!"
There are still many people who are willing to believe the knight's remarks. At this moment, a young man with a cold face shook the wine glass in his hand and said calmly: "Some people are like this. To achieve their goals, they will do whatever it takes."
"This is the despicability of human nature!"
The person who spoke next was a woman with stunning beauty and a red dress that looked like fire. She should have been a charming flower, but instead she had a strong killing aura and the look on her face was extremely cold: "Of the Emperor." The truth is, among the great powers competing for supremacy, if you have the strength, you should defeat all competitors and ascend to the sky, instead of being a hidden assassin and using such despicable and shameless means to eliminate competitors."
"That's right, that's right, what Miss Hongfeng said is very true..."
The seven or eight people at the table heard the words of the woman in red and quickly spoke in agreement. Knight Yan Yang looked at Jiang Chen with great pride.
"Brother Jiang, why don't we leave and change places?"
Standing next to Jiang Chen, Liang Feiyu saw this scene in his eyes. He couldn't help but frown at it. He was not an idiot, so he could naturally see that these people were deliberately targeting Jiang Chen.
"Need not."
Jiang Chen took Liang Feiyu and sat at the table next to him. He had an indifferent expression on his face, and he didn't take Yan Yang and the others seriously at all: "Some clowns are not worth paying attention to."
Because he has been in the limelight in the city recently, he has attracted a lot of attention. At this moment, after hearing what he said, the surrounding area suddenly became quiet. Many people noticed that the expressions of Yan Yang and others changed.
"I've done something secret and I don't dare to admit it. How dare a young man be so arrogant here!"
Hongfeng had a hot temper, and immediately let out a cold snort. As he spoke, his eyebrows stood up, and his eyes shone with a cold light, like a divine sword unsheathed, with an intimidating energy.
Yan Yang said with a smile: "Miss Hongfeng, why should you be angry? Anyway, the training ground will be opened soon. By then, no matter how big the conspiracy is, those young people will not be able to stir up trouble in front of us." Come."
"Brother Yanyang is absolutely right."
The cold man also chuckled and said: "Miss Hongfeng, why should you spoil your interest for a shameless youngster? Ice King Han Yingxuan is coming soon. Let's not talk about a shameless villain anymore."
"Bing King Han Yingxuan!"
Upon hearing this, many of the testers in the pavilion couldn't help but change their faces. Even Liang Feiyu couldn't help but frown slightly. When Jiang Chen saw this, he couldn't help being surprised: "It seems, This person is by no means a simple character..."
