Worldwide Class Change: An Invincible Swordsman

Chapter 657: Chapter 656, Confrontation with the Son of Destiny_1

Yuan Ziyi said, "You are indeed the Master of Destiny—no, you are not the Master of Destiny; you are the Son of Destiny."

At that moment, Yuan Ziyi sensed information about the Destiny Law possessed by Zhuang Maobin. This was the Destiny Law, not the Destiny Seal. This meant the man before her was only a Son of Destiny, not the Master of Destiny. The true Master of Destiny controlled the entire Destiny Seal, which was also known as the God’s Seal.

Zhuang Maobin nodded. "You’re right. I’m just a Son of Destiny, not the Master of Destiny. There are many Sons of Destiny; I am merely one of them."

What the—?! Jiang Chen reeled. There are many Sons of Destiny? Are their cultivation levels all the same as Zhuang Maobin’s? If so, that’s a huge problem. This Zhuang Maobin is an expert. The others are probably experts too. If I can’t even deal with one, how could I possibly handle the others? That would be incredibly difficult!

Jiang Chen had originally intended to bring Yuan Ziyi here to see if this person was truly the Master of Destiny. If so, he would have had to act. Kill him before the Master of Destiny has time to fully develop—that would be the only chance. That had been his plan. But now! Zhuang Maobin is just a Son of Destiny. Killing him would still leave other Sons of Destiny.

Zhuang Maobin looked at Jiang Chen and sneered, "Jiang Chen, do you want to kill me?"

Jiang Chen nodded. "Yes. And you want to kill me too; you can’t fool me on that. The only reason you haven’t made your move is because you want to get useful information from me."

Zhuang Maobin nodded. "Yes, you are unique. Your God’s Seal is completely different from others. I want to know how you cultivated it."

"Do you think I’ll tell you?"

"If you tell me and submit to me, I will let you go," Zhuang Maobin said coldly.

Jiang Chen laughed heartily. "Zhuang Maobin, it’s not yet certain who will be letting whom go. You may be a Son of Destiny, but I have already escaped fate and am not controlled by it."

"No one can escape the control of destiny. Not Divine beings, not Lords, not even you."

"Is that so? Then I’d like to witness your strength for myself."

At this moment, Jiang Chen emanated a powerful fighting intent, a tension even greater than when he faced a Lord. What is so special about the Destiny Law? he wondered. Why can the Destiny Law supersede all other laws? My own is the Law of Destruction, but there’s no aura of destiny within me.

Zhuang Maobin said coldly, "No one can escape destiny, not even you. I originally planned to uncover your secrets before killing you. But since you’ve shown your hand, I have no reason to hold back."

At this, Zhuang Maobin also unleashed a powerful fighting intent.

This potent fighting intent unsettled Jiang Chen. It’s as if Zhuang Maobin is the strongest person in the world, an irresistible force. Like an ant facing a giant elephant—unable to resist, not daring to resist. Jiang Chen’s brow furrowed deeply.

Yuan Ziyi shook her head. "It’s useless. I’ve told you before that the Destiny Law is profoundly mystical. It is unique in all of heaven and earth; no one can resist it."

"I was wrong. I thought I could resist, but after witnessing the Destiny Law..." Yuan Ziyi fell silent.

Indeed. After seeing the Destiny Law, she could no longer harbor any thought of resistance. Submission. Only submission.

Yuan Ziyi lowered her head. I’m still just a Demigod, not yet a Divine being. But even Divine beings can’t resist...

Jiang Chen looked at Zhuang Maobin, feeling an unprecedented, crushing pressure. It was as if he could foresee the outcome: Those who defy fate meet only one end—death.

He was inwardly alarmed. So this is the Destiny Law? The one and only Destiny Law... it’s truly formidable. I must obtain this power! No one can control my destiny. Only I can control my own secrets. No one else. Not even the King of Heaven himself!

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, speaking from the depths of his heart, "As Heaven’s movement is ever vigorous, so must a gentleman ceaselessly strive for self-improvement..."

"As Earth’s nature is receptive and devoted, so must a gentleman carry the world with great virtue..."

With these words, Jiang Chen shattered his bonds. He shattered the shackles of fate.

Zhuang Maobin’s expression changed. What on earth is happening? Why can he still resist? Why can he resist me even after witnessing the Destiny Law? This is impossible! Why can he resist destiny? Why can he resist the oppression of fate? Is this an innate power he possesses?

Yuan Ziyi stared, dumbfounded. What? He’s still resisting? This is...

At that moment, Lin Yu shouted:

"When Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility upon a person,

It first visits his heart and mind with suffering...

It exhausts his sinews and bones...

It exposes his body to hunger...

It subjects him to abject poverty..."

The entire Continent of All-Gods heard this voice and felt their souls tremble. Through the sound, they perceived a figure—strong and unyielding.

"What’s happening? Why does this voice possess such shocking power? I feel as if I’m seeing a strong and unyielding person!"

"This voice actually penetrated deep into my soul, as if it planted a seed of resolve within me."

"Such a profound statement! Who said that?"

"That voice... it sounds like the Master of Sword Pavilion, Jiang Chen."

"Yes, it’s him! It must be him!"

「Meanwhile, at Bai Yun’s Divine Palace」

Bai Yun was startled by the voice. That’s Jiang Chen! I didn’t expect his soul to be so powerful. This is bad. Jiang Chen and Zhuang Maobin have clashed!

WHOOSH...

With a Teleport, Bai Yun vanished.

「Inside the Divine Sovereign’s Palace」

All thirteen Lords heard the voice and grasped the implication of the words: a proud individual was challenging fate, defying destiny.

Spatial God King Laines, Time God King Chris, Curse God King Coleman, and the other Divine Kings all heard the voice and opened their eyes, staring in the direction of the Sword Pavilion.

...

Zhuang Maobin said excitedly, "Excellent, excellent! I never expected you to be such an anomaly, capable of resisting me. I’m very interested in you."

Jiang Chen chuckled. "Sorry, I’m not interested in men. I’m only interested in women."

"KILL!"

Jiang Chen drew One Sword. Grand River Sword Intent!

With a fifty-fold amplification, countless streams of Sword Qi surged towards Zhuang Maobin. He waved his left hand, and a Barrier materialized around him, enveloping him completely.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

The Grand River Sword Intent slammed into the Barrier, sending sparks flying.

Jiang Chen’s brow furrowed. Damn it, no effect? Is the Destiny Law really that powerful?

Zhuang Maobin said, "You are strong, but you don’t understand what destiny truly is. The Destiny Law is renowned as the foremost of all laws in the heavens for a reason."
