Chapter 1495: Chapter 1494: Thunder Hidden

Clang!

The sound of two swords clashing echoed, deafening, as glittering sparks spread in the air, and violent ripples suddenly expanded!

At the moment of the collision, Ling Chen also felt a powerful thunder force pouring into his arm, causing his entire body to shake with energy.

If it weren’t for this being his second entry and already prepared, this sword would have been fatal!

Electric currents surged through his body, but Ling Chen showed no trace of fear on his face. Instead, a hint of battle intent emerged. "Thunder Hidden, let me see if your control over thunder is stronger, or if my Thunder Intent prevails."

With these words, the raging thunder suddenly spread, completely engulfing both figures!

At this moment, outside the Sword Prison.

"Damn, failed at the eleventh level, this was a major mistake!"

"Me too, my goal was the fourteenth level!"

Outside the Sword Prison, a group of middle-aged swordsmen looked displeased, complaining to each other, clearly not having achieved their expected results.

"That Ling Chen is still moving forward, already at the fifteenth level."

Someone noticed Ling Chen had already reached the fifteenth level.

"What of the fifteenth level, that kid reached the fifteenth level last time too, probably won’t move past this time either."

"Yes, haste leads to failure, this kid should learn this lesson."

A few middle-aged swordsmen murmured among themselves.

At this point, Beichuan Ye, Peerless Sword, and others were already transported out of the Sword Prison. Beichuan Ye reached the fourteenth level, just short of Ling Chen’s record, while Peerless Sword reached the twelfth level, a quite impressive achievement for someone entering the Sword Prison for the first time.

After all, reaching the second level, even among the youth of the whole Yingzhou, there are very few, including Beichuan Ye, who only got to the twelfth level the first time.

"Wonder which level that guy will reach."

Peerless Sword looked up at the Thousand Zhang Giant Sword before him, accustomed to such an overwhelming situation; no matter how high Ling Chen reached, he wouldn’t be the least bit surprised.

"Should reach at least the sixteenth level."

Beichuan Ye understood Ling Chen, and if the latter wasn’t confident in breaking his own record, he wouldn’t be here, since he came, it’s at least above the sixteenth level.

"Sixteenth level, truly an unattainable height."

Peerless Sword sighed; each level in the Sword Prison varies greatly in difficulty, the sixteenth level, for him, was undoubtedly an unreachable height.

"Reaching the sixteenth level, this guy should meet who he wants to see."

Beichuan Ye said.

Peerless Sword’s expression slightly tensed, "Who are you referring to?"

"Master Gongben."

Beichuan Ye directly replied, "The Guardian of the sixteenth level of the Sword Prison is the founder of the Two Sword Technique, Master Gongben. Ling Chen said one of his main purposes in coming to Yingzhou was Master Gongben."

"I see."

A look of realization appeared on Peerless Sword’s face. He had heard of Master Gongben’s name when he was in the Nine Provinces, heard that Master Gongben once crossed swords with the Taibai Sword Immortal in his youth, and the result was a draw; it’s clear how strong Master Gongben is.

Ling Chen wants to challenge such a monster?

Buzz!

At this moment, the Thousand Zhang Giant Sword ahead began to flicker violently, beyond it, Ling Chen’s name seemed poised to break through the fifteenth-level region, continuing upward to the sixteenth level!

"About to push through?"

Beichuan Ye and Peerless Sword’s eyes almost simultaneously flashed with brilliance, attention reaching its peak.

Inside the Sword Prison.

Sizzle!

Bolts of thunder fell from the air, leaving incredibly striking marks in mid-air, as if it had completely turned into a space of thunder.

At the center of the space filled with thunder, two figures maneuvered, every clash creating dazzling electric sparks, blooming in mid-air.

At this moment, Ling Chen’s body was covered in charred marks, left by thunder strikes, similarly, Thunder Hidden showed numerous scars, not much better than Ling Chen.

Though both were scarred, Ling Chen wasn’t fatigued, rather intrigued as fighting Thunder Hidden surprisingly honed his Thunder Intent, learning much from Thunder Hidden.

The battle was evenly matched, but Ling Chen’s ultimate goal wasn’t here, so he wouldn’t waste much time.

In battle, Ling Chen had grasped Thunder Hidden’s attack patterns, mainly using thunder ninjutsu with swordsmanship, very singular; historically, Thunder Hidden wasn’t limited to just this ninjutsu, but here as Gatekeeper, he was clearly weakened.

Defeating such a Thunder Hidden was no longer too difficult for Ling Chen.

Last time, Thunder Hidden killed him instantly, largely due to unpreparedness, plus breaking through the first fourteen levels took quite a toll, otherwise Thunder Hidden wouldn’t have easily slain Ling Chen.

"Thunder Cut!"

Arms seemed to writhe with thick thunder snakes, as Ling Chen suddenly unleashed a sword, deploying Thunder Cut!

As Thunder Sword Aura sliced out, Thunder Hidden also attacked, his body erupting with thunder, transforming into a Thunder Dragon, advancing toward Ling Chen’s Sword Light.

Massive Thunder Dragon tore through the void, ferociously attacking Ling Chen, but when clashing with Ling Chen’s Sword Light, it was suddenly sliced apart, the entire Thunder Dragon was halved, remaining Sword Light, still in an extremely swift manner, cut through Thunder Hidden’s surface, creating a crack!

"Thunder Swallow!"

Another sword slashed out, at the tip of Ling Chen’s Thunder Sound Sword, a black thunderball condensed, flew directly, struck Thunder Hidden’s surface crack!

Bang!

The crack rapidly expanded under Thunder Sword Light’s tear, Thunder Hidden’s body suddenly burst open, and then vanished in the thunder!

The fifteenth level Gatekeeper Thunder Hidden, defeated!

As Thunder Hidden’s body exploded, a Wind Eye promptly appeared in vision, seemingly serving as an entrance to the next level.

Ling Chen didn’t hurriedly enter the sixteenth level, he sat down, adjusting his physical state back to prime before entering the Wind Eye, disappearing.
