Sovereign of the Three Realms - Chapter 1945

Chapter 1945: 1945

Opposite the browncloak, Jiang Chen could feel the tangible difference in his opponent . His powerful consciousness allowed him to detect that his opponent was charging up for his strongest move .

Doesn’t he have three moves left? Is he using his best one ahead of schedule? 

The young man didn’t dare underestimate his enemy . He was facing down a demigod, not an ordinary cultivator . He didn’t have the right to take someone this strong lightly .

Jiang Chen focused his mind a hundred and twenty percent . Tempered body, Bewitching Lotus, magnetic mountain, Earth Bodhisattva Orb, and the new golden bell – all available was brought to bear .

In fact, he also temporarily brought a few formation disks to life as well, reinforcing them with a few suspended runes . He was only a beginner at the last art . Having obtained its details from Old Pill Glyph, he had learnt it to a certain degree, though without major success .

In a fight like this though, he needed to use whatever he had . Each and every additional ward would be useful .

He didn’t slouch in the area of offense either . When necessary, a good offense could substitute for defense . The Holy Dragon Bow and Taiji Pisces Swords were potent weapons of murder . Complimenting them was the Heavenly Chalice Sword Formation, just as lethal in its own ways .

The browncloak noticed Jiang Chen’s changes . “I hope you really savor this next one, kid!” he cackled . He knew that Jiang Chen had prepared every way that he could for his final strike .

They had a mutual understanding . However, browncloak was already snickering to himself internally . If his opponent was focused on the physical side of things, he had pretty much already lost .

His strongest attack was potent both physically and mentally . Its essence lay in using the robust physical portion as a smokescreen to land a sneak attack on the consciousness . Of course, if that in itself was enough, then all the better .

But if it came down to the mental portion, he could instantly crush his opponent’s awareness once it was successful . As that was a cultivator’s most vital weakness, a victim had no chance of survival after being struck .

Browncloak made a series of hand seals . Within moments, tendrils of black mist gathered all around him . They spewed and gushed in constant mystery .

He swept the hem of his garment across the ground, placing down a small black flag there . He did so multiple times in succession, dropping them all about the surrounding terrain .

At a glance, the flags looked utterly chaotic and randomly placed . However, when the black mist spread over them, the area the flags covered took on a more sinister aura .

In the next moment, a bone-chilling wind from hell itself froze the air around them .

Jiang Chen found that the ground under him was visibly frosting over . It didn’t seem quite like an ice attribute ability though .

Not panicking for an instant, he used his God’s Eye to pierce the hazy curtain . It allowed its user to see through every veil, whether darkness, maze, or mist that hindered his vision .

Thus, the shape of the little black flags beneath the dark mist was brought sharply into view .

The flags drew the outline of a great demonic beast .

A lumbering hulk rose out of the ground, slowly getting to its feet . It was a pitch-black, demonic monster, colossal and ferocious . Its limbs rippled with powerful muscle .

“Prepare to die, kid!” A bigger black flag suddenly appeared in browncloak’s hands . He pointed it toward Jiang Chen, who felt his consciousness waver .

In the next moment, the muscled monster charged toward him .

The sheer momentum and savagery of the monster tipped Jiang Chen off to its toughness . Harrumphing, he uttered an incantation that directed the Bewitching Lotus of Ice and Fire’s myriad of tentacles to intercept it .

Within an instant, thousands upon thousands of vines entangled the monster in their coils .

The beast was particularly vicious and brutal . An ordinary monster would be unable to move a single inch once ensnared, but a single roaring flex of its extremities caused the vines right against its skin to rip and tear .

Thankfully, the lotus had strong regenerative abilities . Though it was continually damaged, its vines and tendrils nevertheless swarmed ceaselessly upon the monster .

Jiang Chen knew that it could not be allowed much more range of motion . Otherwise, the monster would break free of all the vines upon it . He activated his magnetic golden mountain, sending magnetic storms hurtling in the monster’s direction .

The storms weren’t especially damaging, but they would interrupt and hinder their target’s movements . An opponent that was enfeebled this way would be unable to gather their strength or find their combat rhythm .

He didn’t stop there either . The best counter to this monster was his golden bell . It had gained in strength with every fight he brought it to, and he’d continuously tapped into the ancient energies within . Its offensive and restrictive abilities had both been considerably increased .

The bell flew forth with glorious humming . Aureate light flared from every inch of its surface, seemingly weakening the demonic beast . In fact, the monster was already trembling a little .

Though it still struggled violently, it did so with much less frequency and strength .

A strange smile curled at the browncloak’s mouth .

He waved the flag in his hands, pointing it at Jiang Chen several times again .

Jiang Chen felt a series of disturbances in his consciousness again . Immediately after, the chain seal there agitated with resistance!
