Chapter 215: Chapter 213: I Am a Peace-Loving Person

He actually saw Jiang Jichen begin to dance with his sword amidst the countless specks of light from the poison needles!

It wasn’t some earth-shattering Sword Skill, nor was it some peerless Secret Skill.

Instead... he moved freely, his body as ethereal as a white cloud, yet as swift as a bolt of lightning, or like a swirling storm.

Thrusting, slicing, tapping, blocking, flicking, cleaving... Each move was incomparably precise and executed with ultimate speed!

In the end, he actually flicked away every single one of the thousands of poison needles, which scattered at his feet, emitting a faint blue glow.

’This...!’

Everyone watched this scene in silence, a mixture of amazement, shock, and fear...

A myriad of emotions swirled in their hearts, indescribably complex.

’How can such a Realm of Sword Skill exist in this world?’

’To be able to strike thousands of times in a single instant, precisely tapping, sweeping, and flicking every single poison needle to the ground.’

’And even with such speed, how could he possibly lock onto so many tiny, fast-moving needles with such flawless accuracy?’

’It would be one thing if he were a genius Sword Master at the Foundation Establishment Realm, but he... he’s only at the Innate Ninth Realm!’

Therefore, faced with such a Jiang Jichen, a sense of fear arose in their hearts.

After flicking away all the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needles, Jiang Jichen acted as if he had just done something trivial. He continued to walk calmly toward the two dumbfounded Cultivators from the Five Poison Sect.

"This... How is this possible?"

The two Five Poison Sect Cultivators muttered to themselves, their minds already enthralled by the Sword Dao Realm Jiang Jichen had just displayed.

A cruel sneer appeared on Jiang Jichen’s face. He raised his Red Copper Sword and mercilessly slashed down.

"One Sword Life and Death Technique!"

He lunged forward. A flash of Sword Light streaked past, and one of the Five Poison Sect Cultivators was annihilated!

The skinny Foundation Establishment Cultivator finally reacted. Though his face was filled with terror, he still launched a deadly attack from behind Jiang Jichen.

BOOM!

However, Jiang Jichen didn’t dodge or evade. Instead, his body suddenly shot backward, meeting the opponent’s attack head-on.

The attack landed on Jiang Jichen. The Nine-layered Golden Spirit Pattern Space and the Guardian Sword Curtain shattered instantly, and the remaining force of the attack struck his physical body.

SPURT!

Jiang Jichen spat out a mouthful of blood, but he paid it no mind. His backward momentum only grew fiercer, and in an instant, he appeared before the skinny Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

"Seven Stars Gathering, Starlight Blazes!"

"My body as a weapon, annihilating all things!"

Jiang Jichen roared. His body and fist slammed into the skinny Late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator at almost the same time.

BANG!

The skinny Late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Five Poison Sect didn’t even have time to scream before his body exploded into a bloody mist, which was completely absorbed by the One Corner of the Sky Killing Array that Jiang Jichen carried.

To date, this One Corner of the Sky Killing Array had absorbed the blood mist of many Foundation Establishment Realm experts. It had begun to shed its worn-out appearance, gradually starting to circulate with a dark, blood-red luster. The wisp of aura it emitted was as ethereal as the void, faint and empty, as if it could assimilate a person into nothingness.

Moreover, the Array Patterns of this One Corner of the Sky Killing Array were now one-third repaired. Even though Jiang Jichen hadn’t used it for a while, he could tell it had grown even more terrifying.

If he were to use this Azure Heaven Killing Array now, he could probably wipe out a group of Foundation Establishment Middle Realm Cultivators with ease. But the cost... was clearly just as staggering.

However, Jiang Jichen didn’t have the mind to dwell on the One Corner of the Sky Killing Array, because he was currently very weak and could barely remain standing.

In the battle just now, he had already exhausted his body’s Spiritual Power when he cut down one of them with the Red Copper Sword. In the end, he had no choice but to use the Dao of Flesh Body to kill the final enemy.

Today’s battle seemed overwhelmingly dominant; he had crushed and annihilated the Celestial Bandit Gang, swept through the Five Poison Sect, and forced their leader to abandon his companions and flee in disgrace.

That was how it appeared on the surface, but in reality, it was perilous to the extreme. The Celestial Bandit Gang was one thing, but the Five Poison Sect... If he didn’t happen to possess the Poison-Devouring Pearl Fragment and a constitution that feared no poison, who knows how many times he would have died by now?

However, although the victory was perilous and lucky, it served as a powerful deterrent to everyone present.

So, at this moment, even though he was extremely weak, he had to pretend that nothing was wrong and maintain a calm and indifferent appearance.

In fact, even if he didn’t put on an act, there was no one left here who wasn’t utterly wary of him.

Had it been anyone else, even genius Foundation Establishment Cultivators like Cang Lengshan or Blood Hand, they would not have been able to achieve such a battle record.

Because they couldn’t be like Jiang Jichen, fearless of all Poison Skills!

On the contrary, the poisons of the Five Poison Sect would have a great effect on them. If they were trapped alone in the Five Poison Appearance Formation, they would likely have perished.

Jiang Jichen’s gaze swept across the crowd as he spoke faintly, "Actually, I’m a peace-loving person. If others don’t bother me, I won’t bother them. Wouldn’t it be great if we could all be civil, live in peace, get along, and create a harmonious cultivation environment together? It’s just... *Sigh*, never mind. As long as you don’t force my hand, I’m actually very easy to talk to. I hate all this fighting and killing the most!"

His words nearly made everyone in the crowd choke.

’What? A warmonger like Jiang Jichen loves peace and dislikes fighting and killing!’

’Then what was he doing just now?’

’And he claims to be an easy person to talk to?’

’Easy to talk to, my ass! He started fighting the moment he arrived. Did he even say a few words? Did he ever give anyone else a chance to talk?’

’And what was that talk about? Since it was a life-or-death grudge, of course there was no talk of surrender. It was either you die or I die!’

’Damn, could this guy be any more shameless?’

Receiving the contemptuous gazes of the entire crowd, Jiang Jichen remained indifferent and said, "I will cultivate for a while. Please go about your business. Do not disturb me again."

After speaking, Jiang Jichen ignored everyone, sat down cross-legged in the middle of the square, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.

In contrast to the hateful and contemptuous gazes of the crowd, the girls from the Red Beauty Adventurers were ecstatic to see Jiang Jichen so powerful and now unharmed.

But they had to suppress their excitement and dared not show it too openly.

In their hearts, their admiration for Jiang Jichen had reached an unparalleled level.

They had witnessed Jiang Jichen’s power and fearlessness before, but never had it been so thorough and intense.

’That was the Celestial Bandit Gang and the Five Poison Sect!’

’Especially the Five Poison Sect, an existence that all of them feared immensely. And yet, Jiang Jichen had swept through them, leaving only their leader to flee for his life.’

At this moment, Jiang Jichen’s image in their hearts was as towering as that of a Celestial God.

Among these women, only Tang Ni remained relatively calm, but her heart was still pounding, unable to settle for a long time.

Even if Jiang Jichen didn’t say it, she knew he had acted so ruthlessly and decisively entirely for their sake. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

’Otherwise, if he were alone, with no ties, who could possibly stop him?’

’Little Chen, thank you, truly!’

Tang Ni spoke the words deep in her heart.

As for Xia Qing, her feelings were more direct compared to Tang Ni’s.

Her previous dislike for Jiang Jichen had now transformed into infatuation.

A young girl’s heart is always full of romance. Her beautiful large eyes stared at Jiang Jichen in a daze, her heart pounding like a frightened deer.
