In one day, Long Chen had walked a very long way. He had only seen a few martial artists, but most of them didn't like him. There were also quite a few like Shi Bo who spoke ill of him. The only one who had the patience to talk to Long Chen was one person.
However, even that martial artist wasn't convinced by Long Chen. He still insisted on his point of view. He felt that Long Chen's killing heart was too heavy, and his foundation was too shallow. He wasn't suitable to be a Holy Martial Emperor.
This was a show of respect for Long Chen.
This method was obviously not very effective.
After returning, Wenren Jingtao smiled bitterly. "Alright, I made a fool of myself today."
"I'll try again tomorrow. If I can get a vote, then it's a vote. Maybe I'll lose by one point in the end." Long Chen felt this way. He only hoped that he wouldn't lose too badly in the first round of selection.
Wenren Jingtao admired Long Chen's perseverance and perseverance. He suddenly felt that there was a side to this young man. He had been so arrogant before, but now he was willing to put down his pride and plead for mercy. His strong heart and daring spirit had already given him the demeanor of a Holy Martial Emperor.
"I think they're still angry. I'll come find you tomorrow and try again." Wenren Jingtao finished speaking and left first.
Fu Ling'er followed Han Yunxing. After Fu Hai was killed, the entire Fu Manor had no backbone. There were also two Nirvana Realm warriors who had not returned. Fu Ling'er did not dare to go back at all.
Long Chen reported today's situation to his two uncles. They were also frowning. Generally speaking, old people were the most difficult to persuade in this world. Many of their views were deeply ingrained in their minds. Compared to the truth, they trusted intuition and experience more.
Kitten was not here, and there was no one to discuss.
Long Chen locked himself in his room. While Han Yunxing and Nangong Lie were worried about his mental state, Long Chen had actually begun to think of a new way to improve his strength.
Obviously, the Nirvana Golden Wheel still needed to be nurtured slowly before it would appear, and this could not be rushed. Because of the Nirvana Energy within Long Chen's body, the formation of the Nirvana Golden Wheel was much easier than ordinary people.
Long Chen then focused his attention on battle techniques. He was still unable to cultivate innate dao techniques, so he could only refer to them as battle techniques.
Regardless of whether it was the first level of Time Disorder or the second level of Time Stillness, Long Chen had only touched the threshold of the Extreme Universe Finger. In fact, Long Chen had already sensed that within the Dao of Time, Disorder, Stillness, Countercurrent, etc., were all attributes of time. It was just like how Laceration and Doppelganger were attributes of wind. Each attribute was a Dao. The Extreme Universe Finger had only allowed Long Chen to cross the threshold of these two Daos, Disorder and Stillness. However, there was still a long way to go before he could truly comprehend and cultivate this Dao to the Great Circle Realm.
As for the third level of the Extreme Universe Finger, it was still at an unknown stage.
Why was the Extreme Universe Finger so powerful? When Long Chen entered the Nirvana Tribulation Realm, he could rely on the Extreme Universe Finger to instantly grasp the door to the Dao of Time. He would be a thousand years faster than others. Of course, apart from him, no one else could cultivate the Dao of Time.
It was difficult for him to improve greatly in the Extreme Universe Finger.
As for the Nine Dragons Devouring Sky, it was a Dragon Warrior battle technique that he got from the Killing God, Ye Wushang. Long Chen had already used it to its limit. The Nine Dragons Devouring Sky was Long Chen's strongest attack apart from the Ancient Blood Hell Formation Diagram. Its power was even stronger than the half-baked God Slaying Art. However, he had already reached the peak and could not go any further.
Therefore, Long Chen focused all his energy on the God Slaying Sword.
Previously, when he entered a gray space, he only saw the trajectory of the first word and it was already so destructive. It was hard to imagine how strong the real God Slaying Art was. It would be many times stronger than Feng Zhilin's Heaven Splitter Blade and Slave Feng.
He held the God Slaying Sword in his hand and closed his eyes. The energy of the Nirvana Realm surged into the God Slaying Sword in an attempt to investigate the world inside.
Speaking of the energy of the Nirvana Realm, Long Chen's strange God Nation had to be mentioned. Until now, he could only control the spherical space with a diameter of ten miles. Natural disasters kept happening in other places, just like in the Chaotic God Nation. These places could not be explored by Long Chen at all.
In such a short period of time, Long Chen did not have the time to study this God Nation in detail.
Why did a magical world appear in a place that was supposed to be under his control?
What did this have to do with the mysterious dragon jade?
As he was thinking about these things, the God Slaying Sword in his hand suddenly vibrated. In a daze, Long Chen once again entered that strange space. The clouds in the sky rolled in front of his eyes and transformed into thirty-three thousand words.
This time, Long Chen was smarter. He looked at the second word directly. This was a word with very complicated strokes. Long Chen wanted to memorize the trajectory of the word and then memorize the third word. However, he realized that it was not that easy. When he saw the second word, his eyes and attention could not move. He could not understand that word at all. He could not understand it at all. Therefore, he could not escape and could only think about it.
Boom.
Before Long Chen could see more words, he was thrown out of that space. The only impression in his mind was the trajectory of the second word.
"Forget it. It's not bad to chew too much."
Long Chen held the God Slaying Sword and gently carved the second word on the ground. He even realized that if he did not completely understand the second word, he would never be able to communicate with the God Slaying Sword again.
All Long Chen knew was that even if the Connate Dao Techniques did not have strict levels, the God Slaying Art was countless times better than the ordinary Connate Dao Techniques.
"This seems to be the word 'Yan'."
Long Chen carved a few such words on the ground. They were crooked and not modern words. They came from ancient times. After a period of pondering and flipping through information, Long Chen finally figured out the meaning of the word.
After understanding it, he suddenly realized that it was much simpler.
This word had many more strokes than the word "Heaven" and it was also much more complicated. Long Chen closed his eyes and held the God Slaying Sword horizontally. He was pondering the trajectory of the word "Yan" in his heart. The God Slaying Sword slowly followed the trajectory.
Long Chen's movements were very slow. Only with this slow movement could he slowly understand the true meaning of the word. Haste makes waste.
Time passed quietly. Long Chen's movements became faster and faster.
Pfft.
He spat out a mouthful of blood. When Long Chen woke up, he realized that his entire body was surrounded by a gray aura.
"I really can't be too hasty …" Long Chen smiled bitterly. Because he was in a hurry to practice, his internal organs were slightly injured.
Of course, because he stopped in time, he could recover in a short period of time.
The blood on the ground followed the original trajectory and returned to Long Chen's body.
This situation made him even more respectful of the God Slaying Art. With his current strength, he had actually injured his internal organs when he tried to imitate the trajectory of the second word.
Long Chen took a closer look and realized that a third Dao pattern had appeared on the skull of the God Slaying Sword.
"When did this Dao pattern appear? Could it be that my improvement in cultivating the God Slaying Art has something to do with the formation of the Dao pattern?" Long Chen was shocked to discover this.
Of course, he also knew that it had something to do with his previous killing and slashing of dao treasures. He had originally estimated that the third Dao pattern was about to form.
Holding the God Slaying Sword with three Dao patterns in his hand, Long Chen immediately felt that the power flowing within it had doubled. The power of the God Slaying Sword was getting stronger and stronger.
With every additional Dao pattern, this power would increase tremendously.
If he allowed this peerless evil sword to grow to the level of the Golden Demon Imprisonment Column, or even the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda, it probably wouldn't be a problem.
When that time came, it would probably be a peerless evil sword.
The next day, when Wenren Jingtao came to look for him again, Long Chen had already recovered. The two of them once again embarked on the path of being scolded. They had visited most of the remaining potential warriors. There were more than 20 of them, but the only one who was convinced by Long Chen and decided to support Long Chen was only one person.
Long Chen realized that some things were harder than cultivation and killing.
But he was still very carefree.
Although most people didn't like him, Long Chen's attitude still calmed their anger. Each of them lectured Long Chen as a senior and told him not to do anything in the future.
Wenren Jingtao was very annoyed, but he couldn't change Long Chen's mind. There was no hope for the last few people, so he said, "Forget it. We might as well use this time to cultivate. When the time comes, we'll slap these old fellows' mouths."
Long Chen felt that he had to finish what he started and visit all the people he should visit.
When they came out of the next warrior's mansion, Long Chen met someone unexpected.
The young Martial God stood in the shadow of the corner and looked at them silently.
Long Chen was shocked to find that the young Martial God was no longer beastly. His gaze was clear and even sad.
Long Chen was alarmed. A person with such a gaze couldn't be a lowly person. Could it be that he was playing dumb? But why would he do that?
While thinking about this, Long Chen quickly flashed in front of the young Martial God.
"Let's talk," Long Chen said tentatively.
"Forget it."
The young Martial God Yang Chen waved his hand helplessly. He turned around and left, saying as he walked, "Don't waste your time. Ye Futu gave each of them a dao weapon with two Dao patterns. No matter how much you talk, they won't vote for you."
With that, he left in a few flashes.
Long Chen's mind was in a mess.
First, why did Yang Chen change into a different person?
Secondly … he was a little angry that those sanctimonious experts and seniors who claimed that they were doing this for the future of the True Martial Emperor Palace and that they despised Long Chen for being too murderous had been bribed by a mere dao artifact with two dao patterns.
This was truly ironic. Long Chen really thought that they were righteous and awe-inspiring people.
He asked Wenren Jingtao, "What's wrong with Yang Chen? Is he always stupid? Why is he acting normal today? Or maybe he's just occasionally normal."
