Worldwide Class Change: An Invincible Swordsman

Chapter 675: Chapter 674, Meeting with the Clone_1

’Yuan Ziyi’ watched Jiang Chen burst in, puzzled. "What’s wrong?" she asked.

"Come with me."

’Yuan Ziyi’ sized up the clone Jiang Chen, her expression one of utter shock. She sensed that ’Jiang Chen’s’ body was brimming with the Destiny Law, a power as potent as that within her own original self.

’Yuan Ziyi’ exclaimed, "How... How can your body contain so much of the Destiny Law? Don’t tell me you’ve killed your original self?"

’Jiang Chen’ said, "Enough nonsense. Come with me. Zhuang Maobin isn’t here; now is our time to leave. If you miss this final chance, you’ll lose all hope of ever escaping."

’Yuan Ziyi’ smiled. "I understand now. You want to use me to absorb the Aura of Destiny from your original self, don’t you?"

At that moment, Yuan Ziyi understood.

’Jiang Chen’ had acquired the Destiny Law and wanted to absorb the remaining Destiny Laws, whether from Zhuang Maobin or Yuan Ziyi. Absorbing it via a clone was the most effective method.

’Jiang Chen’ nodded. "Yes."

"You won’t leave."

"That’s not for you to decide."

’Jiang Chen’ reached out with his large hand and seized ’Yuan Ziyi.’

’Yuan Ziyi’ fumed, "You... What do you think you’re doing?"

"There’s nothing I wouldn’t dare," ’Jiang Chen’ retorted. "Besides, it’s not like I can truly escape my situation."

With ’Yuan Ziyi’ in tow, ’Jiang Chen’ turned and departed.

「 」

At that moment, Zhuang Maobin sensed the disturbance.

He felt the change in ’Jiang Chen’ and, without hesitation, sped towards ’Jiang Chen’s’ location at extreme speed.

Meanwhile, ’Jiang Chen,’ having already taken Yuan Ziyi, had left and gone into hiding.

Zhuang Maobin frowned deeply.

What exactly is going on?

Why would a clone possess the Destiny Law?

Where did he get this Destiny Law?

Could his original self have died?

Zhuang Maobin was now questioning everything. He had originally planned to use the clone to absorb the Aura of Destiny from its original self to become stronger.

But he had never expected that the clone would obtain the complete Destiny Law.

This changed everything.

If it was the complete Destiny Law, then this clone was his equal. In a fight, it was uncertain who would win or lose.

Galina asked, "What’s going on?"

Su Maobin said, his brow furrowed with concern, "One of my clones has acquired the complete Destiny Law. This individual has now taken control of Destiny and has already escaped from here."

"How could this happen?"

Su Maobin replied, "There are only two possibilities. The first is that his original self has died, and the Destiny Law has transferred to the clone."

"The second is that his original self has forsaken the Destiny Law. But Destiny controls everything—who would willingly give up the Destiny Law?"

Su Maobin himself couldn’t understand what was happening.

The Aura of Destiny Su Maobin had left within his own clone had, in turn, been absorbed by ’Jiang Chen.’

Galina pondered, "Then it must be the second possibility: his original self has forsaken the Destiny Law."

"His original self would never forsake it, unless he’s gone mad."

"He isn’t mad. I think his original self forsook the Destiny Law because he obtained the Terminating Power."

Su Maobin was shocked. "So that’s it!"

"His original self wants the clone to control Destiny while he himself controls Termination. This way, he would possess both powers."

"But Termination is Termination, and Destiny is Destiny. Clearly, the power of Destiny is stronger than that of Termination."

Galina shook her head. "No, they are powers of equal standing. Destiny belongs to the Continent of Destiny, while Termination belongs to the Nine Abyssal Abyss."

Su Maobin paled.

What?

Galina explained, "It’s a tale from ancient times. The Terminating Power doesn’t belong to the Continent of Destiny; it belongs to us."

"In ages past, the Master of Destiny sought to devour the Terminating Power, bringing it to the Continent of Destiny."

"Since then, Termination has taken root in the Continent of Destiny."

"It is said that many of our kind, demons, ventured deep into the Continent of Destiny, launching attacks to gain the Terminating Power. However, the Master of Destiny was too formidable."

"Although they ultimately achieved a victory, they were also sealed within the Continent of Destiny’s Third Region."

"Destiny is undying; Termination is eternal."

"If Destiny were to die, Termination too would cease to exist."

Su Maobin didn’t understand, and neither did the other two demons present.

Galina continued her explanation, "You should know that when people from the Continent of Destiny die, they are reborn on the Nine Abyssal Continent."

"The same applies to Laws, although Laws themselves do not die."

"Ours are two opposing worlds, yet also two corresponding ones."

"The Continent of Destiny has its Destiny Tree, and the Nine Abyssal Abyss has its Tree of Termination. One might say Destiny is born for the sake of Termination, and Termination, in turn, dies for the sake of Destiny."

"Our only course now is to find him, kill the clone, and obtain the Destiny Law within his body. Here, in our domain, the power of his Destiny Law will be greatly diminished."

"This place does not belong to Destiny."

Su Maobin nodded. "Understood."

Upon Su Maobin’s command, all demons began to search for the clone Jiang Chen’s whereabouts.

「 」

The clone Jiang Chen, carrying ’Yuan Ziyi,’ flew towards the Barrier.

"You should have killed Su Maobin directly to seize the Destiny Law from him! That was a prime opportunity. Once you leave, you’ll have missed it for good," ’Yuan Ziyi’ said, frustrated.

’Jiang Chen’ smiled. "I know that, but I am not his match."

"You’ve already obtained the Destiny Law; how could you not be his match?" ’Yuan Ziyi’ couldn’t understand. They both possessed the Destiny Law; both were considered the foremost among gods. Wouldn’t killing Su Maobin be simple?

’Jiang Chen’ said, "Then let me tell you, this place doesn’t belong to Destiny. Here, my power is restrained. Otherwise, your original self would have come to kill you long ago."

"What do you think she’s waiting for?"

"It’s because the aura of the Nine Abyssal Abyss restrains the Destiny Law. Su Maobin, however, is a demon; his Destiny Law isn’t restricted here."

"That’s why I’m not his match."

"If anyone is to make a move against him here, it must be my original self. My original self wields the Power of Termination—a power belonging to the entire Nine Abyssal Abyss, capable of mobilizing the strength of the whole abyss."

’Yuan Ziyi’ suddenly realized.

So that was it. ’Jiang Chen’s’ plan was to rendezvous with his original self, enable him to enter this place, and then use his original self to kill Su Maobin. Afterward, the clone would absorb the Aura of Destiny. That way, the clone would fully mature and grow in power.

’Jiang Chen’ flew onward swiftly.

Soon, he spotted the Barrier, and there, standing in that very place, was his original self.

’Yuan Ziyi’ looked at Jiang Chen’s original self. So, he really came.

Jiang Chen looked at the clone and smiled. "You’ve arrived."

"Yes."

Jiang Chen asked, "Why did you bring Yuan Ziyi’s clone along?"

’Jiang Chen’ chuckled. "Well, I was thinking I could absorb the Aura of Destiny from Yuan Ziyi’s original self through her clone, wasn’t I?"

Jiang Chen shook his head. "It’s not that easy to absorb. Yuan Ziyi has ways to shield her Aura of Destiny. She is stronger and more formidable than Su Maobin."

"Besides, now that you’ve brought Yuan Ziyi’s clone here, her original self already knows your intentions. She also knows that I’ve devoured the Power of Termination."

"Finding her will be even more difficult now."

’Jiang Chen’ said, "Let’s team up and take her down."

"No."

"Why not?"
