Chapter 617: Chapter 616, Li Chanji You Can’t Do It_1
Li Xiang shook his head. "I’m fine."
Jiang Chen advised, "You all should go back. This is the Battlefield of the Gods, and many Gods within have become possessed."
"Moreover, let’s not even talk about Gods; even if it were Demigods, you would not be their match."
"Demigods possess the Power of Laws, a unique strength within the universe that True Qi simply cannot withstand."
The group remained silent. Indeed, that was the case.
They were no match for a Demigod wielding Laws. However, to become Gods, they must possess the Power of Laws.
Li Xiang sighed. "Things are different for Wanderers now. Many have become Gods, but not for the sake of other Wanderers."
"Some have pledged allegiance to the Continent of All-Gods, some to the Difiled God Continent, and others to the Land of Sin."
"The Wanderers’ Alliance has already fallen apart. Jiang Chen, you are very strong. Can you take up this responsibility? To make the Wanderers a faction of their own, instead of having them pledge allegiance to other continents."
The Five Alliances of Wanderers originally aimed to become Gods, calling upon all Wanderers to join and become an Alliance that could rival the Difiled God Continent and the Continent of All-Gods.
However, once someone became a God, they either pledged allegiance to the Difiled God Continent or to the Continent of All-Gods.
In the end, not a single Wanderer God could shoulder the responsibility.
Jiang Chen said, "You think too highly of me. Those were their decisions; you can’t blame them. Besides, what are Gods to a Lord!"
"Only after they become Gods do they realize there’s another world out there."
"Wanderers cannot establish any power of their own until they have a Lord among them."
Jiang Chen saw this very clearly. Are Gods truly that powerful? Not necessarily.
Above Gods, there are Lords, and even beyond Lords, there are higher Realms.
Current Wanderers could only pledge allegiance to an existing power, seeking a chance to grow under the shelter of a mighty force.
Only when a Wanderer became a Lord could they have the opportunity to build their own faction.
Li Xiang looked at Li Chanji. "Chanji, we will return first. You follow Jiang Chen and venture through the Battlefield of the Gods; you may have an opportunity to become a God."
Li Chanji nodded. "Okay."
Jiang Chen was incredulous. Just like that, he’s pawning her off on me? Without even asking if I agree?
Li Xiang said, "Jiang Chen, for the sake of us all being Wanderers, please take care of Chanji. Li Mu is dead."
"How did he die?"
"He was killed by the leader of the Taiyi Association."
"Tang Ao, the leader of the Taiyi Association?"
Li Xiang nodded. "That’s right. After he became a God, he wanted to subjugate the Five Alliances. Our Heavenly Earth Association had no one become a God."
"Li Mu was killed, Qianren Xue pledged allegiance to Lord Lefir, Tang Ao joined the Difiled God Continent, and the Nangong Family also pledged allegiance to Lord Lefir."
"Li Chanji is the only hope of the Heavenly Earth Association."
Jiang Chen nodded. "Alright, I’ll take care of her."
"Thank you."
Several people helped Li Xiang leave. It was evident that Li Xiang was seriously injured and needed to return to the Land of Sin to recuperate for some time.
Jiang Chen said to Li Chanji, "First, integrate the Thunder and Lightning Laws. You only have one hundred thousand Thunder Rules; it’s far too soon for you to ascend to Godhood."
"I understand."
Li Chanji sat cross-legged and began to refine the Thunder and Lightning Laws.
Jiang Chen stood nearby, guarding her.
In three years, Li Chanji had advanced to the Ninth-Stage, cultivating her True Qi to its highest Realm, to the point where she could accommodate no more.
If she wished to advance further, the only way was to refine the Thunder and Lightning Laws and become a God.
「An hour later...」
Li Chanji stood up. "I have refined them."
"It’s not as simple as just refining them," Jiang Chen explained. "It’s about the Realization of the Laws. You need to comprehend the Power of Laws to fully unleash the strength of the Thunder and Lightning Laws."
"Just as with our Martial Arts, a deeper understanding is needed. Do you understand?"
Li Chanji appeared thoughtful.
"I understand."
"Indeed. I was once like you, thinking that refining the Laws was enough."
"Thank you for your guidance."
Jiang Chen smiled. "You guided me once, and now I am guiding you. By the way, where is your personal bodyguard, Granny Jinhua?"
"She died."
"How did she die?"
"Killed by a Demigod from the Difiled God Continent."
Jiang Chen was silent for a moment, then said, "Let’s go. As we walk, you can work on your Realization. If we encounter a Demigod with Thunder Rules, I will help you, though it won’t be easy to find one."
"There are many types of Laws on the Battlefield of the Gods. If you are lucky enough to come across a Thunder Rule, consider yourself fortunate."
Li Chanji said, "You are the Master of Sword Pavilion. If you were to make a call to arms, many Wanderers would surely follow your lead."
"I have already said this: until one becomes a Lord, even becoming a God is not enough. Only by becoming a Lord capable of contending with the Lords of the Continent of All-Gods and the Difiled God Continent can you establish your own faction."
"Once you establish your own faction, the Gods from these two continents will surely come to besiege it."
"Even Lords might take action."
"The Land of Sin has three cities in total, each with a Lord presiding over it."
Li Chanji asked, "So, when will you become a Lord?"
Become a Lord?
Jiang Chen himself didn’t know; he had no idea how to become a Lord and was still a long way from Godhood.
His current priority was to focus on becoming a God first.
The two of them continued onward, following the map to track a Demigod.
They were searching for a Demigod with the Law of Destruction—this was what Jiang Chen needed most.
The two flew swiftly and soon encountered a possessed Demigod.
Jiang Chen sensed that this Demigod was not very strong and said, "This Demigod has fifty thousand strands of the Law of Devouring within him, and you possess one hundred thousand strands of Thunder and Lightning Laws."
"Logically, you should be able to defeat him."
"Give it a try."
Li Chanji nodded. "Okay."
At that moment, Li Chanji drew her longsword and charged at the possessed Demigod, while Jiang Chen watched her movements intently. The Demigod, in turn, also noticed Li Chanji’s charge.
With a roar, the Demigod lunged at Li Chanji.
Just then, Li Chanji teleported, appearing behind the Demigod.
A wave of Sword Qi slashed towards the Demigod.
This was Jiang Chen’s Instant Step, which Li Chanji had also mastered, though her speed was a hundred times slower than Jiang Chen’s.
The Demigod whirled around and countered with a slash, instantly shattering Li Chanji’s Sword Qi.
The force of that slash then headed towards Li Chanji.
Jiang Chen furrowed his brows.
As expected, it’s still not enough. Wanderers excelled in close combat, but after reaching Godhood, that advantage diminished significantly.
At the Demigod Realm, battles were primarily clashes of the Power of Laws.
The deeper one’s Realization of the Power of Laws, the stronger their combat prowess.
Clearly, Li Chanji was not yet adept at utilizing Laws. Her Sword Qi contained no trace of the Thunder and Lightning Laws; it was like a three-year-old child flailing wildly with a sharp sword, completely unable to wield the Power of Laws.
However, fortunately, she possessed Instant Step, which boosted her speed considerably, allowing her to evade the Demigod’s attacks.
Jiang Chen had no intention of intervening but watched Li Chanji fight instead.
For her, this was a precious learning experience.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield...
