Chapter 1402 - 1401: Breaking the Record

Chapter 1402: Chapter 1401: Breaking the Record

Ling Chen, has broken the records of the youth generation, furthermore redefining their understanding.

It turns out, the youth generation’s swordsmanship can be powerful to such an extent.

Once this news spreads throughout Yingzhou, it will undoubtedly cause a sensation!

The fifteenth layer, only three layers away from the final eighteenth layer!

This was Ling Chen’s first time venturing into the Sword Prison.

This guy is too monstrous.

Hong Ye was equally shocked in her heart. Although she was mentally prepared that Ling Chen might set a new record and shock the world, she didn’t expect Ling Chen to reach the height of the fifteenth layer. This height has surpassed the likes of Beichuan Xiongjie, a first-rate swordsman of the current era, and reached the same level as her father, LiuSheng Qianbingwei.

Others may not know who the Gatekeeper stationed on the fourteenth layer is, but she heard from LiuSheng Qianbingwei that the opponent is the famous "One-Blade Ghost", and Ling Chen passed the fourteenth level, which means Ling Chen defeated "One-Blade Ghost"!

Because even her father, the current Family Head of the Liu Sheng Family, only reached the fifteenth layer at best.

Although the layers conquered in the Sword Prison aren’t directly linked to strength, it has already proven that Ling Chen’s swordsmanship is comparable to figures like LiuSheng Qianbingwei!

This is almost unimaginable.

Gongben Yeliang grasped his palm tightly, his eyes flickering. He initially thought that venturing to the twelfth layer, tying with Beichuan Ye’s record, was an achievement that would shock the entire Yingzhou, only to find his limelight completely overshadowed by Ling Chen.

That was indeed the fifteenth Sword Prison layer. When Ling Chen emerges, this news will undoubtedly sweep across the Yingzhou Continent like a typhoon rapidly.

Inside the Sword Prison.

The fifteenth layer.

This is a space filled with thunder, where threads of lightning surge between the clouds, constantly striking down and leaving large pits on the ground.

In a space where lightning slashed through, suddenly a Wind Eye appeared, and from the Wind Eye stepped out a figure — it was none other than Ling Chen, who had come through from the fourteenth layer.

Even though he was defeated over twenty times by the "One-Blade Ghost", he ultimately succeeded in killing the "One-Blade Ghost".

Because although the "One-Blade Ghost" was fierce, and the power of its blade was terrifying, it was just one blade. After Ling Chen’s repeated studies, he finally found its flaw, broke through the blade, and subsequently defeated the "One-Blade Ghost".

Ling Chen walked step by step forward, looking at the thunderbolts descending from the sky, his expression serious. Maintaining a certain speed, within these bolts there is astonishing power. Once hit by them, it would be a massive burden on the body, losing much combat power before even encountering an opponent.

Suddenly, the Void ahead began to stir. Ling Chen raised his head abruptly, only to see a massive and majestic bolt of thunder striking down upon him!

"Not good!"

Ling Chen exclaimed in his mind and immediately moved to dodge, retreating by ten zhang. However, that massive bolt seemed to have eyes, appearing out of nowhere ten zhang away when he retreated, striking down upon him!

Hiss, hiss, hiss!

Ling Chen’s body was completely enveloped by the violent thunder, every inch of skin tingled as if the fierce power was crushing him alive. But even then, Ling Chen remained conscious, and vaguely he saw a blurry figure within the lightning, holding a sharp sword, slashing fiercely at his head!

The Gatekeeper of the fifteenth layer!

Ling Chen hurriedly raised his Thunder Sound Sword to block in front of him, yet this sword came crashing down like Mount Tai, along with monstrous might, slicing Ling Chen and his sword in half!

As his body was cleaved open, Ling Chen’s consciousness lingered in mid-air. At this moment, the Gatekeeper enveloped in thunder light landed on a nearby peak, and as the thunder light dissipated, a figure emerged.

As Ling Chen’s consciousness was about to dissipate, he saw the two large characters embroidered on the wide robe of that figure.

Thunder Hidden.

Moments after seeing the characters on that robe, Ling Chen’s consciousness suddenly faded away.

Outside, before the Thousand Zhang Giant Sword.

With a "buzz," a light gate appeared, and Ling Chen’s figure walked out from it.

"He emerged!"

The moment Ling Chen emerged, all eyes focused on him, carrying a trace of intense heat.

The creator of records for the youth generation.

The fifteenth layer height is enough for Ling Chen to stand proud among the youth!

As Ling Chen was transported from the Sword Prison, his Sword Intent level broke through from the Saint-class Initial Stage to the Saint-class Intermediate Stage.

"What a pity!"

Ling Chen shook his head. The strength of the fifteenth layer’s Gatekeeper was too overwhelming, slaying him in a single strike, and it came too suddenly to react, resulting in his defeat.

"Master."

Hong Ye slightly bowed to Ling Chen, her expression extremely respectful.

Throughout the journey, Ling Chen’s performance had completely won her over, gradually making her acknowledge Ling Chen as her master from the bottom of her heart.

"Do you know who Thunder Hidden is?"

Ling Chen couldn’t let go of the fifteenth layer’s Gatekeeper; he saw only the name Thunder Hidden and was instantly slain and transported out by the opponent.

"Thunder Hidden? Master, you encountered Thunder Hidden?"

A hint of surprise appeared on Hong Ye’s pretty face, then her expression became grave as she said, "Thunder Hidden was once a powerful ninja who dominated Yingzhou. Not only was he highly skilled in ninjutsu, but his swordsmanship was also very strong, making him a versatile powerhouse. His ninjutsu combined with swordsmanship could unleash dual power."

"A ninja?"

Ling Chen pondered, no wonder the opponent could hide within the lightning, using its power to lower his defenses and state to the minimum, then delivering an unstoppable strike to finish him off!

Ling Chen’s defeat was too fast, catching him off guard. However, even with precaution, Ling Chen estimated he wouldn’t be able to surpass the fifteenth layer and still wouldn’t be a match for Thunder Hidden.

"Although Thunder Hidden was powerful, it’s said that deeper in the Sword Prison, even stronger individuals exist, including Master Gongben and the Shinobi God. His ninjutsu and swordsmanship are several times more formidable than Thunder Hidden’s, making him the true God of Ninjas."

Hong Ye said gravely.

"Master Gongben, Shinobi God?"

Ling Chen’s eyes lit up instantly. The Gatekeepers of the remaining layers sparked Ling Chen’s interest immediately. But this time, it’s impossible to face them; he can only wait for the Sword Prison to reopen in half a year.
