Chapter 197 Senior Sister, This Is My Respect
No wonder the elder of Lingjian Peak protested. Chu Shen's approach completely disregards martial ethics.
JA.......
As Chu Shen said, equipment is also part of a cultivator's strength. From ordinary disciples to outstanding disciples, which peak neglects the role of magical tools, elixirs, talismans, and other external forces?
The magical tools of disciples from the Lingqi Peak have always been the best among all the peaks. The disciples of the Lingdan Peak never lack the supply of elixirs. The disciples of the Lingshu Peak even waste talismans as if they were just paper during battles. The disciples of the Lingji Peak have even created things similar to exoskeleton armor...
The reason for resisting Chu Shen is simply because his set of equipment disrupts the balance. Even the outstanding disciples supported by the Lingqi Peak have never had such exaggerated magical tools!
"This is indeed a problem."
The representative sent by the Lingqi Peak for this grand competition nodded in agreement with the elder of Lingjian Peak's indignant words, having been tricked by Chu Shen.
It's hard to say that his statement is not influenced by personal grievances.
"So, Elder Pan, do you think that the disciples of the Lingqi Peak should also abandon various magical tools and participate in the competition?" The elder of Lingjue Peak stood up and defended Chu Shen.
As a staunch supporter of the Langhuan Peak and a peak where Chu Shen has stayed for a long time, the impression of the disciples of Lingjue Peak towards the Chu family is still good. At least Chu Shen and his 24 concubines have never discriminated against the disciples of Lingjue Peak who have transformed into different beasts. They even get along well with the fox spirits led by Shen Yingzi.
I heard that Shen Yingzi even hired Chu as a physiology lecturer for the beast disciples. The elders of Lingjue Peak are very happy to hear that the probability of perfect transformation for the beast disciples who have attended the lectures has indeed increased.
Elder Pan didn't expect the fire to burn himself: "You can't say that. Nearly half of the strength of the disciples of the Lingqi Peak lies in the magical tools they refine themselves. These magical tools are the manifestation of their strength. How can they be abandoned?"
"Then why are you targeting Chu Shen? Don't you have anything better to do?" The elder of Lingjue Peak sneered in disdain.
Elder Pan had his own argument: "Hey, it's different. The magical artifact of the Lingqi Peak disciple was self-made, while Chu Shen's magical artifact was obviously bought at a high price. It can't be considered his effort on the path of cultivation!"
Unexpectedly, the elder of the Lingdan Peak contradicted him: "I can't understand Elder Pan's words. Chu Shen was able to spend enough money to buy a magical artifact. Doesn't this financial strength also reflect his strength? It's not that serious, not that serious!"
Elder Pan secretly cursed the elder of the Lingdan Peak for causing trouble. But then he realized that although the disciples of the Lingdan Peak were not lacking in elixirs, they had a considerable gap in cultivation compared to the Lingjian Peak and other immortal peaks that specialized in combat. They really didn't hesitate to purchase various external items as supplements to their combat power.
Speaking of which, many of the magical artifacts bought by the disciples of the Lingdan Peak were produced by the Lingqi Peak, and many of them were their own customers.
Now, by opposing Chu Shen's use of a magical artifact, wouldn't they be ruining their own business?
Thinking of this, he suddenly fell silent.
Seeing Elder Pan calm down, the elders of the Lingfu Peak and other immortal peaks that also relied on external forces spoke up for Chu Shen. The elder of the Lingjian Peak was so angry that he shouted, "You old scoundrels, always thinking about cheating and not willing to let disciples cultivate and improve their own strength. If there's really trouble, let's see how you handle it!"
But he also knew that his words didn't count in this matter, so he could only protest silently with his anger.
Seeing the elder of the Lingjian Peak truly angry, the other elders of the immortal peaks also felt a bit embarrassed. But this matter, it's really difficult to balance. Each has their own expertise, how can they cut off their own advantages and compete with others in their weak areas?
Anyway, there are so many disciples in the Heavenly Palace. Apart from Chu Shen, this exceptional case, they haven't seen a second one like him. Let's just muddle through this matter.
However, everyone also kept some thoughts, feeling that Chu Shen's extreme "pay-to-win" approach seemed like a good idea, if the peak's finances allowed...
Meanwhile, in the arena, the snowball-sized spiritual energy clusters could no longer be passed between Chu Shen and Su Ji continuously.
Chu Shen was ultimately on the defensive, and even the shield had its limits. The spiritual energy ball that was pushed back by Gong Liusu once again finally exceeded the shield's defensive limit. Under the strong impact, the shield was shattered into pieces, and Chu Shen was blown away by the explosion's airflow.
Fortunately, the armor on his body provided several layers of defense, so the destruction of the shield did not cause him decisive failure.
On the other hand, Gong Liusu was exhausted. Even though her cultivation level was one realm higher than Chu Shen's, breaking through the defense of the high-quality shield consumed a significant amount of energy. She couldn't even take advantage of the situation to pursue, and had to stop and rest.
Chu Shen knew that he couldn't let her complete her rest. The recovery speed of a Spirit Gathering stage cultivator was too fast. Once she finished resting, it would take a great deal of effort to exhaust her again.
[Shadow Moon] was activated, and the Mo Blade struck down!
Gong Liusu barely resisted this attack, but her rhythm of rest was interrupted. Immediately after, she faced Chu Shen's continuous attacks like flowing water.
At close range, she had to face Chu Shen's Mo Blade and occasionally unsheathed famous sword embryos.
At a distance, she had to face Chu Shen's arrows and various spells.
In short, not giving her a chance to recover meant exhausting her remaining strength!
This made Gong Liusu very frustrated. Under Chu Shen's correct tactics, her resistance became weaker and weaker.
However, it was not easy for Chu Shen to win this round. The cultivators of the Lingjian Peak were the most experienced in battle among all the immortal peaks, and their resilience in actual combat was unimaginable for disciples of other peaks. Moreover, their skills were extremely strong!
Gong Liusu was clearly oppressed to the extreme, but she still relied on her exquisite skills to guard the last line of defense, blocking Chu Shen's tide-like attacks outside the sword formation.
The more Chu Shen fought, the more he admired her. Clearly, the Spirit Gathering stage cultivators he had seen before preferred long-range combat, excelling in spells and flying sword techniques, but their close combat skills were mediocre. However, Gong Liusu's high-level close combat skills completely refreshed his inherent impression of cultivators.
"Sister, as a sign of respect, I am willing to show you my strongest move at the moment!"
His attitude towards Gong 940 Liusu became even more respectful and serious. He decided not to hold back anymore and take down this round.
Because of the mask, others couldn't see the expression on Gong Liusu's face, but from her tense body, it was clear that she valued Chu Shen.
And this level of importance was obviously not exaggerated.
Because Chu Shen activated the skill imprint of "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Ancestral Sect," countless sword shadows began to appear around him, creating a spectacular scene of swords covering the sky.
The spectators watching from the outside were dumbfounded. Could this be a move that a Foundation Building stage cultivator could perform? Perhaps even a Gold Core stage cultivator couldn't do this.
The elders of various peaks stood up one after another, shocked on the spot. They were not shocked by Chu Shen's combat power after activating the skill imprint, but by the Heaven Grade technique of "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Ancestral Sect." They were knowledgeable and understood the value of this technique.
Gong Liusu trembled all over, not out of fear, but out of joy. She truly loved everything related to swordsmanship. Witnessing such a magnificent scene of swords, her whole body was filled with excitement. "Junior Brother, come, let's fight!"
And behind her, the originally listless White Tiger Law Manifestation roared towards the sky, struggling to reveal a fierce posture once again. Countless flying swords were also manifested by her, confronting Chu Shen head-on.
Through observation, she actually imitated some of the charm of "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Ancestral Sect" in a short period of time!
Chu Shen was both appreciative and cautious. He couldn't delay any longer!
"Sister, I apologize!"
Ten thousand swords were unleashed, forming a dragon that descended from the sky!
