Chapter 360: Victory!

All doctrines of sword were composed of initial success, great achievement, completeness, master, and transcendent levels .

Jiang Qingyu's doctrine of sword had achieved master level .

Jiang Chen had tried to comprehend the essence of the Immortal Doctrine of Sword on his own, but what he had was only a part of it .

How to be immortal? What was the essence of immortality? How did one present it?

These questions were perplexing him . He especially couldn't differentiate the Immortal Doctrine of Sword from the Eternal Doctrine of Sword .

Not until then, when Jiang Qingyu threw his sword out . It was like a lamp in the dark, pointing out the way ahead .

Things that never wear out will be immortal .

This was what Jiang Chen had comprehended from Jiang Qingyu's momentum of the sword .

He felt like he had been suddenly enlightened . When he went back to review all of the puzzles he'd had regarding the Immortal Doctrine of Sword, everything became clear .

He had been emitting an aggressive energy of the sword during the process . He himself looked like a sharp sword .

Then he looked towards Su Xiuyi . Different from the sharp blade of sword, the power of his knife was destructive enough to destroy everything .

But the Ultimate Knife Method wasn't simply a representation of force . The secrets and changes hidden in it weren't any less than those present in swords .

Assisted by the creation of wind, the Ultimate Knife Method mainly relies on the creation of metal, but with changes, it could also be reversed .

Jiang Chen finally tumbled to the reason that the Ultimate Knife Method could be practiced by anyone who was at the entry level for all knife movements, but its power differed from person to person .

It was because of the combinations and changes between the creation of metal and wind .

Jiang Chen was startled, since if this was true, it meant the Ultimate Knife Method was limitless!

In other words, as long as one was good enough at martial arts of creation, one would be able to enhance the power of their knife method, even without any inheritance of doctrine of knife .

This knife method is powerful enough to be collected by the heaven-grade attic of the Over Cloud Palace .

At the Over Cloud Palace, martial arts bibles were stored in five attics by grade—human, spirit, earth, heaven, and deity-grade . Among them, the deity-grade attic had always been empty .

Jiang Chen couldn't stop admiring the Ultimate Knife Method when he understood what was so great about it .

Instruction from a good teacher is worth more than three years of hard practice . It's true .

Jiang Chen was pretty pumped up after being enlightened by Jiang Qingyu and Su Xiuyi . He merged what he had learned just before into his martial arts techniques right away .

"You two are pinning hopes on a Reaching Heaven State . How stupid is that!"

Under the protection of the royal armor, the emperor wasn't afraid of the pair's attacks at all . He put the Holy Dragon Imperial Seal into use again .

"Break!"

He sealed the sky, intending to conquer power with power . He was doing whatever he wanted to do with no fear .

Without the protection of the royal armor, although Jiang Qingyu and Su Xiuyi were more skilled at martial arts techniques, they were injured by the remaining power of the seal . They were both pushed back to where they had been when they launched their attacks .

In comparison, the emperor of the Xia Dynasty was totally fine . He became tougher and launched even fiercer attacks .

Jiang Chen hadn't completely absorbed what he had comprehended, but he had to come forward .

Before anything else, the Devastator was shot without any signal . The cannonball was aimed at the emperor .

No Venerable would be able to handle the power of the cannon, but all Reaching Heaven States were able to dodge it .

The emperor didn't need to see it with his eyes . He moved his body backward and dodged the cannonball easily .

"A Sword Attack without Permanence!"

Jiang Chen hadn't expected the Devastator to kill the emperor . He had only wanted to subdue the latter to prevent him from attacking .

After all, the gap in their states was too huge . If the emperor was prepared for his attack, its effect would be greatly weakened .

Jiang Chen used his knife and the sword together, as usual . He turned the two into one .

The elevation of the sword and thunder and lightning were swimming along the blade of the black knife .

The beginning movement was brief . It happened in a flash, then he was in front of the emperor .

"What's this?"

Jiang Qingyu and Su Xiuyi were perplexed . They couldn't see through this movement of Jiang Chen's . They couldn't differentiate the sword from the knife, because Jiang Chen had combined the two and merged the creation of metal and wind, the Immortal Doctrine of Sword, and the secret of the Sword Method of Ksana into it .

Although it was complicated and difficult to see through, they knew they shouldn't underestimate it .

The emperor's attainments in martial arts techniques were far from enough to help him see through it, so he could only fight back with brute force .

"Forbid!" he sealed once again . The attack was even fiercer than the previous one, which he had launched against Jiang Qingyu and Su Xiuyi .

It was obvious how seriously the imperial palace of the Xia Dynasty was taking Jiang Chen's ability to crack the armor .

The space between the emperor and Jiang Chen was distorted, as if a giant hand were pinching it .

Jiang Chen slowed down . Cracks appeared on the shell of the Dark Soldier Armor, but in a flash, the Dark Soldier Armor suddenly broke out and broke through the barriers . Jiang Chen dashed towards the emperor . He struck with the sword and the knife as if he were cutting fruits .

The emperor was in pretty much the same situation as Ning Haotian when the latter had been defeated . He had no way to fight back . Different parts of the royal armor on him were cut open .

"No . No way! Go to hell!"

The emperor was in pain, but he turned pale facing the crack of his royal armor . He gave the Black Soldier Armor a punch .

The Black Soldier Armor was dented immediately . Jiang Chen was also affected, but he didn't pay too much attention to it . He gnashed his teeth to continue exerting his movement .

In the end, he cut the royal armor more than 100 times, while the emperor only managed to give the Dark Soldier Armor three punches .

"The royal armor has been cracked!" Jiang Chen shouted .

This was the moment Jiang Qingyu and Su Xiuyi had been eagerly expecting . They attacked right away .

"What the hell!"

It seemed the emperor had lost his senses . He paid no attention to them, but kept his eyes on Jiang Chen .

The Dark Soldier Armor had become his punching bag . The Venerable's fists were falling like raindrops .

Jiang Chen's face was turning paler and paler .

Fortunately, Jiang Qingyu arrived in time . He brandished his sword and saved Jiang Chen .

"Tyrant, die!"

Su Xiuyi also came up . He finally struck the emperor with the knife after decades of waiting .

The emperor had never been a match for either of them . Besides, he had lost the royal armor and been wounded by Jiang Qingyu .

He was too weak to dodge Su Xiuyi's attack .

"How dare you kill…"

He failed to to face reality even at his death . He had never thought he would lose, but Su Xiuyi's knife fell on his chest . He immediately felt weak . Then the knife pierced into his chest .

The emperor of the Xia Dynasty was dead!

Su Xiuyi looked pleased . He took the Holy Dragon Imperial Seal and said in anger, "Your emperor is dead . Surrender!"

It was as striking as thunder . The battle on the ground stopped right away .

Those living in the imperial palace looked up and saw their emperor's dead body falling like a kite without a string .

After a few seconds' silence, the dynasty's troops put down their weapons . The three Venerables, who weren't weak at all, also returned to the ground .

The Jiang Mansion and the Natural Law School had won the battle . They had defeated the imperial power!

But Jiang Chen also paid a big price . The Dark Soldier Armor on him was totally damaged . He almost couldn't take it off .

It took him a great deal of effort to take the armor off . Not until then did he find out how severely wounded he was .

After all, he was a Venerable… Jiang Chen thought . Then everything before his eyes went black . He fell into Jiang Qingyu's arms .

At the same time, the Nine Transformations Elixir in his heart was melting rapidly and flowing all over his body .

Jiang Qingyu was very worried about his son, but then he noticed Jiang Chen had broken through to Cloud Three!
