Chapter 882: Chapter 877: No Way Out (2nd Update)

"Indeed terrifying." Su Chen’s eyes shone brightly, filled with great surprise.

"Next, it’s time to head to the Sword Enlightenment Forest." After a while, Su Chen calmed his emotions and murmured softly to himself. He didn’t change his direction; instead, he continued forward in the same direction.

Step by step.

Walking along.

Su Chen discovered.

The surroundings had become strange again.

Where did they come from? Terrifying Sword Lights appeared unnoticed, entwining around him.

More and more.

But these Sword Lights, they did not attack him. Instead, like bodyguards, they protected him, leading him forward.

Su Chen followed these thousands and thousands of Sword Lights, walking in the direction they were leading.

Very soon.

A mountain appeared before Su Chen’s eyes!!!

Exactly.

A mountain.

However, this mountain was somewhat special; it seemed ethereal and winding, without any aura rippling around it, giving Su Chen the impression of an utterly ordinary, common mountain.

But upon closer inspection, one would find that this massive mountain seemed to be made of countless Fire Swords.

The mountain had a writhing sense.

Su Chen stood in front of this mirage-like mountain, quietly watching. As he watched, the Flaming Sword Mountain before him gradually became blurry, changing shape, as if it turned into a Great Demon, a Giant Demon, or like morphing into a marsh, a dark cloud.

Shapeless and shadowless.

Extremely strange.

At the same time, those countless Sword Lights that surrounded Su Chen, like bodyguards and guides, suddenly moved, converging toward the mountain of Sword Radiance above.

Like birds returning to their nests.

In the blink of an eye, Su Chen was stunned.

In his eyes, those countless Sword Lights that had been swirling around him, after converging on the Flaming Sword Mountain, seemed to come alive. Using Sword Light as a brush, they began to write on the Flaming Sword Mountain.

Very quickly.

"What is Sword Bright?"

These few words were branded on the Flaming Sword Mountain!!!

Su Chen’s whole body shook, his eyes burst forth with brilliance, and he held his breath.

"Jiuyou, is this asking me a question?" Su Chen asked Jiuyou, shocked by this earth-shattering, supernatural spectacle.

"It is."

"As long as I answer the question, and if the answer is correct, then have I passed the Second Level of the Sword Enlightenment Forest?" Su Chen calmed down once again, murmuring to himself as his eyebrows furrowed.

What is Sword Bright?

Sword Bright means understanding the Sword, comprehending the Sword, knowing the Sword...

And this question, in fact, is different for every Martial Cultivator.

For a Sword Cultivator who vows to seek revenge and redress grievances, his Sword Bright is ’vengeance.’ For a Sword Cultivator who vows to protect family, loved ones, and friends, his Sword Bright is ’protection’...

"What is my Sword Bright? What is the purpose of me holding a Sword?" Su Chen asked himself, over and over again. Each time he questioned himself, it was like a Heavy Hammer striking his heart, torturing his soul.

Time passed.

Su Chen stood like a man who had an epiphany, motionless beneath the Flaming Sword Mountain, as if frozen in time.

His eyebrows sometimes relaxed, sometimes furrowed; his gaze sometimes fierce, sometimes ancient.

One Shichen later.

Suddenly, Su Chen moved!!!

Whoosh!

He sprang from the ground and leapt into the air.

He held the Heavy Divine Sword, his wrist rapidly twirling, accompanied by Sword Light, sweeping across the Flaming Sword Mountain.

After a blink of an eye.

A "Breakthrough" character decisively appeared, floating above the Flaming Sword Mountain, with the body of the character sharp and its shadow like a blade, its momentum soaring upwards, forging ahead.

"My Sword Radiance represents breaking through, breaking all obstacles to ascend to the prestigious position of Nine Heavens, breaking through all foggy barriers to find peace within the world and heart, breaking through all restraints to surpass oneself, to reach the eternal mystery of heaven." Su Chen stared at the "Breakthrough" character, his Unyielding Sword Intent instantly erupting wildly! Revolving and shaking vigorously! Transforming breath into essence! Vibrant and potent!

It was in that second.

The Flaming Sword Mountain before his eyes dissipated, rapidly vanishing.

And Su Chen himself, as if he had received a baptism of the soul, experienced an uplift in his state of mind, his Unyielding Sword Intent becoming even more pure and robust.

The gain was immense.

At this time, if he were to use the Chaotic Soul Sword, his Unyielding Sword Intent could enhance its power by at least eighty percent.

"Ha ha ha..." Suddenly, Su Chen burst into roaring laughter.

It was also in that second.

Outside the Forest of Thousands Swords.

Above that Divine Stone.

A black point of light directly surged past the Second Level.

In an instant.

The guarding elder lost his composure, he shook his head violently, his aged eyes almost bulging out!!!

The guarding elder stood there, staring intently at the Divine Stone, frowning tightly, utterly motionless.

Completely unexpected.

In his opinion, Su Chen entering the Forest of Thousands Swords would mean death, not even passing the First Level was possible, yet Su Chen passed the First Level effortlessly, with a record-breaking time.

And that wasn’t all.

The Second Level...

Su Chen passed it as well.

Moreover, from start to finish, Su Chen only spent two or four Hours to pass the Second Level!

This was simply impossible, impossible, impossible!

The record time for the Second Level of the Forest of Thousands Swords was thirty-three hours.

Did Su Chen refresh the record by twenty or thirty times?

It’s not something humans could achieve at all!

The Second Level represents Sword Brightness, recognizing oneself, the sword, what one desires, what the sword desires... and moreover, it requires absolute determination, without any doubt, to succeed.

This is extremely difficult.

Even for a martial cultivator with the heart of a scarlet youth, it might take several Shichen to fully recognize, right?

Su Chen only took two or four Hours.

It was ludicrously exaggerated.

The guarding elder was already so flummoxed, not to mention the disciples surrounding the area like a sea of people, even more so.

Some disciples could hardly breathe, nearly suffocating to the point of passing out.

Everyone who enters the Supreme Heavenly Fire Sect is a Super Genius, so full of pride. But now, facing the record Su Chen created within the Forest of Thousands Swords, they had only one thought, which was death!!!

Compared to Su Chen, other than death, there were no other thoughts.

Are they even at the same level? In the same world?

Not leaving any way out for others at all!

Especially those disciples who had entered the Forest of Thousands Swords before, their teeth almost shattered with frustration... as if hallucinating.

Above the Forest of Thousands Swords.

"Good!" The Sect Leader uttered this word, his face creased with a smile, those familiar with the Sect Leader knew that he did not often smile, sometimes not even once in ten thousand years; to see him laugh so heartily, cheerfully, satisfied, and proud was indeed a rare sight every hundred thousand years.

Imaginably, the Sect Leader was extremely pleased and proud of Su Chen.

The twelve elders were also shuddering, utterly silent, looking at each other, the look in their eyes expressing ’are we living in a dog’s world?’
