Worldwide Class Change: An Invincible Swordsman

Chapter 571: Chapter 570, Sword Pavilion emerges, battling against Qianren Xue_1

Jiang Chen looked at the annotations on the Stele. Some were incorrect, while others were accurate. Of course, annotations differed from person to person. Not only were there annotations from Qi Sha, but also from other experts. For instance, there were annotations on the Six Pulse Divine Sword. The Six Pulse Divine Sword could unleash Sword Qi with great penetration power. But why couldn’t it surround the body with Sword Qi like the Wan Jian Gui Clan technique? Indeed, some had attempted just that.

The Six Pulse Divine Sword involved gathering powerful True Qi within the body and releasing it explosively. This created a penetration power that faded over time. The Six Pulse Divine Sword is Sword Qi, unlike Wan Jian Gui Clan. The Wan Jian Gui Clan technique is about controlling Sword Qi with Mind Control, using Qi to command the sword... The Six Pulse Divine Sword is about explosively releasing True Qi, not commanding the sword with Qi.

Cultivating here were not only disciples from the Tundra Continent but also individuals from other sects and Wanderers.

Jiang Chen examined the Cultivation Techniques inscribed on the Stele. The only one missing was the Heaven-Cutting Sword Extraction Secret Technique. It appeared Qi Sha hadn’t engraved Bai Yun’s Cultivation Techniques there.

Many people from the Sword Pavilion were gathered, all observing the Stele.

Just then, a figure flew in from a distance.

Jiang Chen turned to look at the newcomer. It was an old acquaintance, Qianren Xue, the Chief of the Qianren Association. What is this woman doing here?

SWOOSH, SWOOSH, SWOOSH...

Dozens of experts emerged from the Sword Pavilion. All were Seventh-stage Experts, and among them were even some Eighth-stage Wanderers. These were Jian Ge Elders.

Three years ago, the Sword Pavilion had emerged seemingly out of nowhere, collecting all known Cultivation Techniques. This act shocked the entire Tundra Continent and angered the Five Alliances, threatening their interests, so they united to annihilate the Sword Pavilion. But Qi Sha himself was stationed in the Sword Pavilion. Not only was Qi Sha present, but One Sword and Er Xin had also come down from the Upper Realm to lend their support, along with the rest of Bai Yun’s disciples. It was truly a gathering of experts. In addition, there were many powerful Wanderers. The Five Alliances had to retreat, not daring to confront the Sword Pavilion directly.

「Two years later...」

The Sword Pavilion had grown significantly. Most experts on the Tundra Continent were discussing its core principles and had subsequently joined. The Sword Pavilion became the strongest power on the Tundra Continent, attracting Wanderers from all corners to learn. No qualifications were needed to study at the Sword Pavilion. Learning was free, and members researched and discussed techniques collectively. They cultivated together.

After Qi Sha departed for the Upper Realm, he entrusted the Sword Pavilion to others, including Deputy Pavilion Chief Zhao Yuyan.

Zhao Yuyan looked at Qianren Xue, her brow furrowed. "Chief of the Qianren Association."

"Zhao Yuyan, you still remember I am the Chief of the Qianren Association. But do you remember your own identity?"

"Deputy Pavilion Chief of the Sword Pavilion."

Qianren Xue sneered. "Good. Deputy Pavilion Chief. It seems you no longer hold me in high regard?"

"I am now a member of the Sword Pavilion. What is your purpose in coming here?"

"To kill you and destroy the Stele."

CLANG, CLANG, CLANG...

Dozens of Jian Ge Elders drew their longswords, all cursing Qianren Xue for her despicable and shameless actions.

"Qianren Xue, you vile scoundrel! Taking advantage of the Pavilion Chief’s absence while he’s in the Upper Realm, you sneak down here to destroy the Stele!"

"The Moving flowers and trees technique has already been improved by our Pavilion Chief! It far surpasses the version used by your Qianren Association."

"The Stele has benefited millions of Wanderers and strengthened the Wanderers’ Alliance. Qianren Xue, you are making a grave mistake."

"Even many disciples from your own Qianren Association have benefited here. It’s not just members of the Sword Pavilion, but your people too!"

"From the day the Sword Pavilion was established, its purpose was never fame or profit, but to allow everyone to grow stronger. Qianren Xue, do you truly intend to obstruct this?"

Qi Sha and the others had indeed already gone to the Upper Realm. Only Deputy Pavilion Chief Zhao Yuyan remained. If it came to a real fight, how could she possibly be a match for Qianren Xue? Qianren Xue was the Chief of the Qianren Association and a Ninth-Stage Peak master. She had also cultivated the Moving flowers and trees technique to its absolute peak. She had even practiced other Cultivation Techniques. Among them was an improved version of the Divine Spirit Sword Technique.

Qianren Xue stated coldly, "Whoever stands in my way, I will kill."

Zhao Yuyan shook her head. "Chief Qianren Xue, don’t you understand yet? This is the irresistible tide of the era. Even if you destroy this Stele, new ones will appear."

"Countless people already know the inscriptions on the Stele."

"You might destroy the Stele, but you cannot destroy hope."

"Our Pavilion Chief once said this is the inevitable course of events."

"It is the Pavilion Chief’s Path of Redemption, and also the fruit of Jiang Chen’s painstaking efforts."

Jiang Chen mused. The Path of Redemption. That fellow...

Qianren Xue cursed furiously, "That little thief Jiang Chen! He’s been missing for three years; he’s probably dead by now! If he ever dares to show his face again, I will not let him off!"

It was Jiang Chen who had stolen the Moving flowers and trees technique. He had even stolen all the Martial Arts of the Five Alliances and engraved them on the Stele. This allowed all Wanderers to learn them. If it weren’t for Jiang Chen, there would be no Sword Pavilion. The rise of the Sword Pavilion was inextricably linked to Jiang Chen. Naturally, Qianren Xue hated Jiang Chen to the bone.

Jiang Chen was baffled. Is this woman’s temper still so explosive? I haven’t even done anything!

Just then, Qianren Xue made her move, instantly launching a Sword Qi strike at the Stele! The Sword Qi tore through the air towards it. Zhao Yuyan and the others hurriedly unleashed their own Sword Qi to defend.

CLANG, CLANG, CLANG...

Various Sword Qi attacks collided in the sky.

"Qianren Xue is so strong!" someone exclaimed.

"Of course she is! She’s the Chief of the Qianren Association, a Ninth-Stage Peak master. She has cultivated her True Qi to the utmost limit and even mastered the Moving flowers and trees technique to perfection!"

"Huh? This isn’t Moving flowers and trees."

"It’s not Moving flowers and trees. It’s a Martial Art that combines it with the Divine Spirit Sword Technique! How did she manage that?"

"No wonder she only reappeared after three years! She must have been researching how to integrate Cultivation Techniques."

"She clearly learned from the Sword Pavilion’s improved methods, yet now she comes to destroy the Sword Pavilion Stele!"

"She’s utterly shameless!" others declared.

"What can we do? She’s too powerful. No one here is her match," someone lamented.

Zhao Yuyan and dozens of others combined their strength, unleashing Sword Qi to defend.

Qianren Xue gave a cold laugh. "Just you lot? You think you can stop me? Unless Qi Sha himself appears, all of you will die today!"

Her objectives were clear: destroy the Sword Pavilion, shatter the Stele, and kill Zhao Yuyan. This was because Zhao Yuyan had once been a member of the Qianren Association.

Jiang Chen observed Qianren Xue. He extended his right hand and unleashed a beam of Sword Qi at her.

WHOOSH...

Jiang Chen’s Sword Qi shot across the sky like a laser beam towards Qianren Xue. She looked utterly shocked. There’s another Ninth-Stage Master present? Qianren Xue retreated rapidly, her eyes scanning the crowd.

Jiang Chen slowly ascended into the air, a smile playing on his lips. "Qianren Xue, long time no see."

"It’s you? Jiang Chen! You’re not dead?" Qianren Xue was visibly stunned. She had encountered Jiang Chen in the Upper Realm before. Back then, he was merely a Swordsman from the Continent of All-Gods. Now, he had become a top-tier expert among the Wanderers. Qianren Xue couldn’t fathom how someone could ascend to the ranks of the most powerful experts in just three short years.

The surrounding Wanderers began to exclaim in excitement.

"It’s him! He’s Jiang Chen, the founder of the Sword Pavilion!"

"It really is Jiang Chen! I can’t believe he’s returned!"

"But isn’t Qi Sha the founder of the Sword Pavilion?"

"No, it was Jiang Chen. He gave all the Martial Arts to Qi Sha and then went into seclusion to cultivate. Qi Sha established the Sword Pavilion as his Path of Redemption, but the true founder is actually Jiang Chen."

"So that’s how it is! He’s so strong! He forced back the renowned Qianren Xue with a single move!"

"Incredible!" many admired.

"With him here, the Sword Pavilion is safe!"

The Wanderers buzzed with excitement. Jiang Chen had appeared—the true founder had arrived.
