Chapter 770: The Magnificent Palace
Jiang Chen put away the jade pendant and turned to leave.
…
Three days later, outside a magnificent palace.
Jiang Chen stood outside the door, looking up at the towering palace, his eyes flickering.
"You finally came."
Suddenly, a vigorous voice sounded.
Jiang Chen turned around and saw an old man walking out of the palace.
This is an old man with white hair, a chest-length beard and bright eyes.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Jiang Chen bowed.
"You don't know me, but I know you."
The old man smiled and said, "My name is Li Xuantong."
"Elder Li, I wonder what you want to talk to me about?"
Jiang Chen was alert. He didn't dare to believe that the Sword Sect sent someone to recruit him.
Although Jian Zong's attitude has been lukewarm during this period, who knows if he will suddenly change his mind.
A smile appeared on Li Xuantong's face.
"Don't worry about anything. I have no ill intentions. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to come in here."
Jiang Chen was secretly complaining in his heart, but he did not show any displeasure on the surface.
"I invited you here today, not only to recruit you, but also to exchange swordsmanship with you." Li Xuantong said with a smile.
Jiang Chen was stunned. He didn't expect it was because of this matter.
"OK."
He agreed readily.
The two entered the palace, and Li Xuantong led Jiang Chen to a martial arts training ground.
"This is the Sword Pond."
Li Xuantong pointed to a deep abyss nearby. It was pitch black inside and nothing could be seen, just like the underworld.
"Is this... a sword formation?"
Jiang Chen noticed that there were some swords placed around.
Li Xuantong nodded and said, "There are seven or eight swords here, all of which are the treasures of our Sword Sect."
As he spoke, he swept away a stone tablet with a wave of his sleeve.
Jiang Chen looked up and saw the words "Sword Formation" written on it.
"This is a set of Seven Star Sword Formation, with nine swords in total, and the power is terrifying."
"Each sword is the most precious thing of the Sword Sect. You can choose as much as you want."
"However, the sword formation has many limitations and requires too much energy to use. You must be mentally prepared." Li Xuan said.
"I see."
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he jumped into the sword pool.
The sword pool was several feet deep. As soon as Jiang Chen jumped in, he felt a tingling sensation all over his body, which made him frown.
He immediately activated his flying sword to protect his body and resist the attack of the sword energy.
Buzz~
Soon, a crisp chirping sound rang in Jiang Chen's ears.
I saw a sword floating in the air.
This sword has a unique shape. It is a sharp blade with a sharp edge and a cold light, like a peerless divine weapon.
"This is the Feishuang Sword."
Li Xuantong said: "It is the treasure of our Sword Sect. All the swords in the Sword Pool belong to it."
Jiang Chen looked at the Feishuang Sword floating in the sword pool and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The Feishuang Sword exuded an icy murderous aura that made people's hair stand on end and their hearts palpitate.
"The Feishuang Sword is indeed powerful." Jiang Chen thought to himself.
Then he reached out and grabbed the Feishuang Sword.
The Feishuang Sword trembled a few times, then calmed down and fell on his arm.
"What's going on?"
Jiang Chen was surprised. He felt that he had some connection with the Feishuang Sword.
"You have a mysterious power in your body that can affect the Feishuang Sword. This is your good fortune."
Sword Saint Monument explained.
This was something he had expected.
Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that he wouldn't be able to get the Feishuang Sword.
"You can choose any sword from the sword pool."
Li Xuantong said: "If there is anything you don't understand, you can come to me."
"Thank you, Elder Li."
Jiang Chen thanked him sincerely and walked outside.
After he walked away for a while, he came back.
"Is there anything else?" Li Xuantong asked puzzledly.
Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "Elder Li, I heard that your Sword Sect is the top force in Wanjian City."
"good."
"Do you have any way to let me join you?" Jiang Chen said.
Hearing this, Li Xuantong was stunned. He didn't expect that Jiang Chen came here for this.
"You should have heard of the Sword Tomb." Li Xuantong reminded.
"Know."
Jiang Chen nodded. This sword tomb is the name of a sword tomb, and it is said that many magic swords are stored there.
There are many swords hidden in the sword tomb, including a sword left by the Sword Emperor.
"The Sword Tomb has strict rules. One must become a core disciple before one can comprehend the Sword Tomb ."
"Moreover, the sword tomb is extremely dangerous. Even core disciples may perish."
Hearing Li Xuantong say that the sword tomb was in danger, Jiang Chen was shocked and thought that the sword tomb was more dangerous than he thought.
"Elder Li, your strength should be enough to be a core disciple, right?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
Li Xuantong smiled bitterly.
Jiang Chen immediately understood that Li Xuantong must have been rejected by the Sword Tomb.
He was silent for a few seconds, then asked again: "Elder Li, is there a sword left by the Sword Emperor in the sword tomb?"
"No."
Li Xuantong shook his head.
"That sword tomb has no appeal to me." Jiang Chen said.
Li Xuantong was surprised. He didn't expect Jiang Chen to say such a thing.
Then he smiled and said, "In that case, go look somewhere else, maybe you can encounter an opportunity."
"Um."
Jiang Chen nodded and said goodbye to Li Xuantong.
After Jiang Chen walked away, Li Xuantong's face became uncertain.
"It seems I have to change my thinking."
"Let's win him over first."
A look of determination flashed in Li Xuantong's eyes.
Jiang Chen did not leave directly, but came to another place.
There are many stone platforms here, piled with various materials.
"Alchemist."
Jiang Chen had an idea when he saw these stone platforms.
"It seems that I am lucky. The first task is to refine the fifth-level spiritual medicine."
Jiang Chen was secretly delighted. He had originally planned to try his luck at the Sword Tomb, but he didn't expect to end up at the Alchemy Peak.
In Alchemy Peak, alchemists are relatively rare, but there is no shortage of them.
Jiang Chen quickly searched among these alchemists.
"Are you an alchemist?"
Suddenly, a young man in blue clothes came over.
"Yes." Jiang Chen nodded, curious that the other party was an alchemist.
The young man didn't waste any words. He took out a spiritual medicine and threw it to Jiang Chen: "Refine it."
Jiang Chen held the elixir and was speechless for a moment.
"The elixir I refine is priceless. If you can't refine it, you will bear the consequences at your own risk!"
"You are clearly trying to make things difficult for me on purpose." Jiang Chen said coldly.
The young man said disdainfully: "You think I want to make things difficult for you, but you know that the pills you are refining now are not worthy of being called pills at all."
"Oh?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.
The young man snorted: "Do you know what kind of pill this is?"
"You might as well tell me."
The young man said contemptuously: "The elixir I refined is called blood coagulation elixir. After taking it, spiritual energy ."
"You know, if ordinary people take blood-clotting pills, they can increase their lifespan and be reborn."
"You actually said that this kind of medicine is not worthy of being called a medicine?"
Jiang Chen was stunned. He didn't expect the blood coagulation pill to be so powerful. No wonder the young man dared to say that the pill he refined was not even as good as garbage.
"If you think it's unworthy, you can just throw it away."
