Chapter 1062: Chapter 1060: Come Closer to Me (1 more)

"Thank you, but no need." Su Chen naturally declined. He was from the Divine Martial Continent, and his stay on the Ningtian Continent was temporary. Why would he join the Cloud Sword Sect? It wasn’t suitable.

Su Chen still felt some surprise and curiosity about the Ningtian Continent.

Overall, the Spiritual Energy density of the Ningtian Continent was even more terrifying than that of the Divine Martial Continent, which had undergone thirteen cycles of the Purple Spirit Sun Rising.

In other words, although the Ningtian Continent, like the Divine Martial Continent, was a Middle Martial Plane, it was far stronger.

Among the younger generation of the Ningtian Continent, most were at the Heaven Earth Sovereign Realm level, and a small number of disciples directly reached the Eternal Sovereign Realm. For example, Ji Yu and Chen Xingwen, True Disciples of the Cloud Sword Sect, one of the ten great powers of the Ningtian Continent.

"Su Chen, you don’t need to worry about being bullied at the Cloud Sword Sect. I..." Ji Yu seemed a bit surprised and taken aback when Su Chen outright refused. She wanted to persuade him.

After all, the Cloud Sword Sect had an incredibly high status—one of the top ten sects on the entire Ningtian Continent. Countless Martial Cultivators would practically kill to get in.

Now Su Chen had the chance, yet he refused and gave it up without hesitation, which was truly baffling.

She assumed Su Chen was worried that the Cloud Sword Sect was too ruthless and dangerous inside.

"Really, there’s no need." Su Chen smiled bitterly. Ji Yu was a good girl—simple and kind. Yet in the world of martial cultivation, such a personality was extremely rare. It left him somewhat helpless.

"At least you have some self-awareness." Chen Xingwen also spoke, her tone still laced with ridicule.

Su Chen’s complete disregard for her made her increasingly irritable. To this day, no man had ever dared ignore her.

Chen Xingwen saw herself as a peerless beauty, unmatched in charm. Shouldn’t a mere Heaven Earth Sovereign Realm Eighth Level nobody either be obsessed with her or show her reverence? Yet Su Chen completely ignored her—utterly unforgivable.

She might look down on the Heaven Earth Sovereign Realm Eighth Layer, but in truth, she didn’t know that Su Chen had previously only been at the Ancestral Saint Realm Eighth Layer.

It was only after burning his flesh during battle and regrowing his body that Su Chen’s realm had been forcibly elevated.

The key reason for this transformation was the Moon Spirit Stone. When regenerating his body, a vast number of treasures were needed as nourishment, and the Moon Spirit Stone had merged completely into Su Chen’s reborn body under such circumstances, triggering a violent surge in his Mysterious Cultivation Realm.

Finally, Su Chen glanced at Chen Xingwen. Her incessant mockery and sneering, like a buzzing fly, had thoroughly worn out his patience.

"What are you looking at? Are you upset? Even if you are, suck it up. A weakling has no right to show their emotions." Chen Xingwen met Su Chen’s gaze and shot back mercilessly, enunciating every word with venom.

Ji Yu quickly stepped between Su Chen and Chen Xingwen, preventing a conflict—or more precisely, preventing Sister Xingwen from making a move on Su Chen.

"Sister Xingwen, let’s pick up the pace! Du Chi is already here!" Ji Yu diverted the topic.

Chen Xingwen gave Su Chen a long, deep look but ultimately said nothing further.

The three of them continued darting toward the Cloud Sword Sect’s towering main peak, which pierced the heavens like a massive bamboo shoot.

After a while.

The three came to a halt.

In front of them was a massive boulder, perfectly rounded, on which elegant sword scars flowed seamlessly. The scars formed the words "Cloud Sword," emanating an aura of grandeur and power, as if the sword cries carried the spirit of a dragon.

Su Chen found himself even more intrigued by the Cloud Sword Sect. It seemed this sect was anything but ordinary!

Passing through the gates of the Cloud Sword Sect, the first thing that unfolded before them was a peculiar pathway, made entirely of swords. The ground was paved with innumerable blades, each boasting a high rank—Dao Artifacts at the very least. There were even several Desolate Artifacts among them. What’s more, each blade exuded a unique Sword Rhyme, and countless strands of these rhymes intertwined to form a mist-like airflow that shrouded the path.

"Su Chen, stay close to me," Ji Yu whispered. "Don’t wander off."

Speaking, she extended a Mysterious Qi Protective Shield, enveloping Su Chen as well.

"This road is called Sword Forest Road. Every sword laid here once belonged to a now-deceased disciple of the Cloud Sword Sect," Ji Yu explained further. "Sword Forest Road is rather dangerous. Normally, someone at the Heaven Earth Sovereign Realm Eighth Layer can attempt to cross it, but it will take some time. So, it’s best to stick with me."

Su Chen didn’t refuse, nor did he reveal his true strength. He nodded and followed Ji Yu ahead.

After about a hundred breaths.

They had passed through Sword Forest Road.

In front of them was a cluster of endless dwellings, highly distinctive in their stark simplicity—one could only describe them as crude. Wood and thatch made up the primary materials of these buildings.

Noticing Su Chen’s puzzled expression, Ji Yu elaborated, "The Cloud Sword Sect emphasizes ascetic cultivation and meditation."

Su Chen simply nodded. He neither approved nor disdained such a cultivation method.

"Let’s head straight to the Martial Training Field. Since Du Chi has come to challenge, all the sect disciples should have gathered there," Ji Yu said, glancing toward Chen Xingwen.

Chen Xingwen nodded.

The three made their way toward the Martial Training Field.

Soon enough.

They arrived.

The Martial Training Field was smaller than Su Chen had anticipated—about the size of ten football fields. It was ancient, worn, and dilapidated. If one judged solely based on this training field, one might laugh at Cloud Sword Sect’s claim as one of the top ten sects. But upon sensing the sea of Martial Cultivators gathered there, one would feel nothing but awe.

Almost no one present was below the Sovereign Realm.

There were even around a hundred Eternal Sovereign Realm cultivators, though fewer in number.

With the arrival of Chen Xingwen, Ji Yu, and Su Chen, the crowd of Cloud Sword Sect disciples couldn’t help but take notice.

It was unavoidable—Chen Xingwen and Ji Yu were the focus of the sect.

The two women were not only astonishingly talented in martial cultivation, having become True Disciples at their young age, but they were also extraordinarily beautiful—acknowledged as the Cloud Sword Sect’s unrivaled double jewels.

Over the years, countless cultivators had pursued Chen Xingwen, but none had succeeded. Her standards were impossibly high.

Meanwhile, Ji Yu seemed wholly uninterested in taking a male cultivator companion.

Thus, no man had stood by their sides—until now.

What was going on today?

As a result, Su Chen became the center of attention as well.

Twenty-four years old, Heaven Earth Sovereign Realm Eighth Layer...

In an instant, many Cloud Sword Sect cultivators couldn’t help but feel disdain!!!

At that level, within the Cloud Sword Sect, you’d at best qualify as a Servant Disciple. How could someone so unworthy have any contact with Ji Yu or Chen Xingwen?!

Both Chen Xingwen and Ji Yu, accustomed to being the focus of countless gazes wherever they went, maintained indifferent expressions and quickened their pace toward the area reserved for True Disciples.

At the Martial Training Field, while all disciples were allowed to spectate, seating arrangements clearly reflected one’s rank and status.

True Disciples had their own designated area, as did Core Disciples, Inner Sect, Outer Sect, and Servant Disciples.
