If it was a direct confrontation, spirit qi would have flown in all directions on the scene if Chu Xinghan's punch were to be instantly undone. Any life within a range of several hundred meters would be affected, and most likely no one else would be alive.
However, for this battle of strength to easily swallow Chu Xinghan's punch without causing a single ripple, it was truly too frightening. It was like throwing a huge rock and disappearing into the air.
Even if a large stone was thrown into the water, it still caused a slight splash and caused some ripples.
However, this blow did not even cause a spark.
What the hell does this mean? This meant that this person who had suddenly interfered was at least ten times stronger than Chu Xinghan!
Chu Xinghan had started training since he was eight years old and had met many rivals and killed many experts. In his training path, he had met many strong opponents.
However, Chu Xinghan had never experienced the overwhelming might even of his esteemed teacher, Shuiyue. He even guessed that power did not come from one of the sects that existed in the sixteen kingdom alliance.
Jiang Chen's shock was not inferior to Chu Xinghan's shock.
He had just prepared to fight, but who would have thought this sudden development would cause the fight to head back in a different direction?
“Murids from Purple Sun Sect right? You can all go back now. Jiang Chen is under my protection.”
A majestic voice sounded in the air. It seemed to be rather old and old, and carried an undeniable sense of oppression, leaving the listener with no choice but to obey what he said.
“Senior... Who are you?” Chu Xinghan was not the type of person to be in a hurry, as he cupped his hands together, gave a greeting from junior to senior, and asked respectfully.
“You don't need to ask about my name.”
The majestic voice looked a little displeased, “Go back and tell Immortal Zixu and Shuiyue of the Purple Sun Sect that the grudge between Jiang Chen and Long Juxue will be settled by the two of them alone. If someone from the Purple Sun Sect takes action against Jiang Chen, I don't mind taking a walk to the Purple Sun Sect someday.”
Chu Xinghan was someone who knew when to advance and when to retreat. He knew that this great power was not someone he could fight against at all. He nodded, “Thank you very much to our senior for not bothering us, junior. I will definitely convey the senior's words word for word when I return.”
Giving up obediently and honestly in the face of absolute power is the only way. Chu Xinghan was not stupid, he knew that senior experts let him go because seniors were unwilling to bother to dirty his hands.
If he didn't know when to stop and retaliate harshly, his senior would probably crush him with a single finger.
Moreover, to be honest, Chu Xinghan did not feel regret settling the matter this way, nor did he feel humiliated. Giving up in the presence of a stronger person means adjusting his actions to time.
Moreover, his own intentions were also not too eager to kill Jiang Chen.
After all, the dispute between Jiang Chen and Long Juxue had nothing to do with him. If he had not been here on the orders of his master, he would not even have been willing to get involved.
Chu Xinghan's thoughts were different from Yu Jie's.
Yu Jie wanted to curry favor with Long Juxue and lay the foundation for cursing the genius Long Juxue.
Chu Xinghan was a genius and had objections and pride towards him. He felt that licking Long Juxue was a degrading thing to him. Even if he rose to a higher level with future achievements, Chu Xinghan's personality was not one that would spur him to curry favor with others.
“Sister Long, your foolish sister has tried her best in today's affairs.” Chu Xinghan said to Long Juxue as he returned to the ground.
Although Long Juxue felt pity, she also knew that Chu Xinghan had really tried his best, given this situation. Who would have thought that a peerless expert had suddenly appeared out of nowhere?
He was an intelligent person and knew that the only reason they could leave this place alive was because the mysterious expert valued his status and did not want to oppress the weak.
Otherwise, he could kill all three of them as easily as blowing dust.
Although Yu Jie somewhat disagreed with this conclusion, she did not dare to say anything more. He knew more than Long Juxue how frightening someone who could easily dispel one of the blows of senior brother Chu Xinghan's full strength.
"Let's go!" Chu Xinghan said lowly as he did not dare to linger. He took Long Juxue with him and pushed her with his feet. Blue ice clouds rippled like blue lotuses as they flew into the sky and disappeared into thin air.
Jiang Chen watched Chu Xinghan and the others leave. Although he did not comply with this conclusion, he did not say anything.
All sorts of strange happenings have colored the happenings of today. This battle was also not one of Jiang Chen's achievements. He naturally knew that he did not have the ability to make Chu Xinghan leave Long Juxue.
Moreover, Jiang Chen was someone with moral integrity. He would invite contempt if he wanted Long Juxue to stay at this moment. He was going to kill Long Juxue, but not by using the influence of a loan.
Sighing lightly, he cupped his hands and exclaimed. “Can I know senior's honorable name? Jiang Chen would never forget the help given today. Will the senior leave your name? I'm looking forward to compensating you if there's a chance in the future.
However, Jiang Chen also knew that in the eyes of this kind of expert, the kind of compensation he could offer as an ordinary practitioner might not have any appeal.
But Jiang Chen's words came from his heart and he felt that he had the potential and the foundation to do so.
"Compensation?" The sound in the air chuckled. “Alright Jiang Chen, this old man will remember your words from today. I hope there will be a day where you can offer me a certain amount of compensation.”
After these words were spoken, the voice began to bluster far away like thunder, disappearing in the distance.
“Honored Senior, please hold your step!” Jiang Chen wanted to say a few more words.
Silence welcomed him. No more responses.
Jiang Chen had not even seen his savior face amidst all of this. He laughed wryly as he looked at the broken scene with bodies strewn everywhere, sighing lightly in his heart.
Under the Second Crossing, millions of strong soldiers were still crouching on the ground. No one dared to move a single finger until now. Even when the impact of the great battle had spread to them, it still caused many people to die. So, no one dared to shout or groan in pain.
Jiang Chen was tired. He also felt very sorry that this crime chief, Long Juxue, had not been killed. He saw the big army again. They all went on the journey.
Although Long Juxue was not dead yet, the Soaring Dragon family had basically been annihilated. The task of cleaning up the rest of this mess could be returned to the Eastern clan to be their concern.
Back at the Second Intersection, everyone surrounded Jiang Chen and showered him with questions.
Jiang Chen suffered torment throughout his battle, as did those who stood at the top of the mountain pass.
Jiang Chen spread his hand. “People from the Purple Sun Sect are most likely afraid of making more trouble. The only unfortunate thing is that Long Juxue escaped and will be the source of problems in the future.”
He waved at Princess Gouyu. “Klan Timurmu should be able to handle yourself the task of cleaning up the aftermath?”
Jiang Chen had absolutely no interest in the power struggle between the royal family and the Long family. He was not against the Duke of Soaring Dragon because he supported the royal family, but rather because the Long family had gone too far in oppressing others and wanted to end his Jiang family many times.
The Second Crossing Battle had ended with the destruction of the Long family and the fame of the Jiang family.
However, the chaos in the Eastern Kingdom would not end that quickly. It was fortunate that there was still Princess Gouyu and Eastern Lin as the Crown Prince, so the royal family's bloodline was not over yet.
Princess Gouyu used various methods afterwards to gather the duke's forces loyal to the royal family and exterminate the remains of the Long family with swift and ruthless measures.
Executing heads, killing accomplices.
All dukes forced by Long Zhaofeng would not be prosecuted.
This was the rule set by Princess Gouyu.
He also knew clearly that if the impact was too wide, the chaos within the kingdom would not end. Killing some leaders, wiping out the Soaring Dragon palace, and revitalizing the authority of the royal family was enough.
The current Eastern Kingdom was unable to bear any more losses.
But of course this process cannot be completed in a few days.
The Jiang family remained neutral during all of this and did not participate.
The royal family actually placed the Duke of Jinshan and Duke of Hubing, people who had always been friendly with the Jiang family, at an important position at this time, as well, making them the two most reliable forces by the royal family in the rise of royal power again.
As for the Jiang family, whether it was Jiang Feng, Duke Jiang Han or Jiang Chen, who had displayed incredible talent in the battle of the Second Crossing, they were all not too self-effacing. They remained inside River Wave City, not going out of the house and staying at home all day.
At the battle of the Second Crossing, Jiang Chen managed to retreat relatively unscathed after some development, yet he felt extremely embarrassed inwardly.
Although he did not give up or compromise in front of Chu Xinghan, the feeling of not being able to control his own destiny and his life and death being determined by others made Jiang Chen feel extremely angry.
Back in the Jiang Han territory, the first thing Jiang Chen did was personally train the Golden Wing Sword Bird and impart to them the mystery of “Eight Trigrams Assimilation Formation.”
He also knew very well that suddenly increasing his strength by leaps and bounds in a short period of time was unrealistic.
But hope could be held back for the dao of the formation. If several hundred Goldwing Sword Birds could comprehend seventy to eighty percent of the “Eight Trigram” Assimilation Formation, then they would be a great force to be reckoned with.
In addition, the variation of “Eight Trigram” Assimilation Formation is very much. It could also be broken into countless small formations, reassembled into medium-sized formations, and reformed once again into large formations.
The change between large, medium, and small is one's will and desire. After seventy to eighty percent of the formation essence had been comprehended, the power of the formation would open its eyes.
At the very least, he would not be confused when meeting someone of Chu Xinghan's level again.
Other than Jiang Chen, all the others made valiant efforts after experiencing disgrace. Eight personal bodyguards Jiang Chen had felt a sense of shame how a subject should die for the sake of his subordinates when his subordinates were subjected to humiliation.
Everyone exerts their greatest efforts as they train without thinking about themselves.
Two months passed without a sound. Jiang Chen's training level saw greater progress as he took one step forward and managed to reach eleven meridians of true qi.
As it was commonly known, entering the realm of eleven meridians true qi masters had almost reached the boundary of the true qi realm.
In the martial dao arena of the sixteen kingdom alliance, eleven meridians true qi masters would successfully enter the spirit realm as he advanced, or explore the true qi realm for the rest of his life.
As for ascending to the twelve meridians true qi level, no one had ever heard of someone breaking through to this level, at least not in this common kingdom.
Since the beginning of time, there had been no shortage of geniuses in the martial dao world. They had all explored the paths of twelve meridians of true qi, yet in the end all lost the best time to transform into the spirit realm, without exception. They were gloomy to the end of their lives like a sparkling star slowly sinking to the earth.
Logically, Jiang Chen should have prepared for the transformation into a spirit qi.
However, Jiang Chen had no intention of attacking the spirit realm. He had fully assimilated into this world and built his martial dao foundation.
The next step was to absorb the memories of his past life and start digging deeper into his exploration.
The so-called twelve meridians of true qi realm were just a small way to practice.
There were many primary training means in Jiang Chen's memories, even divine training means.
His basic skills were very well prepared at the moment, and it was time to get out of the cocoon and become a butterfly!
