The forest was silent, with only the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves.Chen Nian stood there with his glowing Golden Sword, ready to face the bandits blocking his path.“You fools are courting death!” he shouted angrily, frustrated by the time that continued to slip away.Golden Dragon Energy surged through his body, unleashing tremendous power into his sword.Chen Nian moved like lightning.In the blink of an eye, he appeared behind one of the bandits.“Where did he go?” the bandit asked in confusion.But before he could even turn around, Chen Nian's sword had already struck.Slash!The bandit's head separated from his body, blood spraying everywhere.His corpse collapsed onto the ground, creating a horrifying crimson rain.His companions were stunned, their eyes widening in shock at what had just happened.The remaining five bandits panicked and scattered in different directions.They looked around desperately, searching for somewhere safe to hide.However, Chen Nian's

The air trembled with the remnants of colliding energies. Dust swirled through the air after the massive force struck a towering wall, shaking the foundations of Sun City.The shadow-robed figure staggered backward, breathing heavily, yet his eyes still burned with defiance.“Hah! An insect dares block my path?”Elder Kun, an old man with a cruel gleam in his eyes, let out a thunderous laugh, his voice echoing throughout the courtyard.He was a figure of considerable authority, his presence radiating a domineering aura that had instilled fear in countless hearts.However, his laughter abruptly stopped.A blurred movement, a flash of crimson, and a familiar cold voice pierced through the air.“You underestimate your opponent, you decrepit old man.”A figure clad in red robes appeared behind Elder Kun.In his hand was a sword blazing with fire, dancing elegantly in a deeply unsettling manner.It was Chen Nian, the Crimson Sword, a name whispered throughout the land with equal measures o

The air trembled with raw power, a tangible force that pressed heavily against the chest of every witness present. The cultivators of the Gong Clan, once proud and fearless, now had faces carved with terror as they scattered backward. Their retreat became a chaotic symphony of panicked cries and desperate breaths.Their leader, the respected elder, Elder Gong Li, lay lifeless on the ground, his body split in two by an invisible force.Patriarch Wong Lanang, whose stern face had become a mask of disbelief, watched the scene unfold with a mixture of awe and fear. The man standing before him, wrapped in an ethereal radiance, was Chen Nian, an elusive master whose strength defied reason. Wong Lanang felt insignificant in the face of such wild and overwhelming power."So I am not as strong as him, even though he is still so young," Wong Lanang muttered."He... he killed Elder Gong Li!" a young Gong cultivator stammered, his voice trembling. "We have to run! He's unstoppable!"Those words e

The storm raged relentlessly, accompanied by constant flashes of lightning. Chen Nian quickly realized this was no ordinary tempest; every element carried spiritual power capable of destroying both body and soul.Chen Nian sat cross-legged in the heart of the storm, closing his eyes and focusing on the energy flowing through his body. He knew that resisting this storm with physical strength alone was impossible. He had to become one with nature's energy, allowing the storm itself to test the limits of his power.For hours, Chen Nian endured. Snow froze his skin, fierce winds tore at his clothes, and lightning struck dangerously close to him, yet he remained calm and unmoving. Gradually, the storm began to subside, and the sky returned to its clear state.The creature appeared once more."You have proven your endurance. Now comes the final trial: The Heart."The creature snapped its fingers, and suddenly Chen Nian found himself standing in a beautiful grassland. Before him appeared the

When the great doors of the Ancient Fire Temple fully opened, a wave of scorching heat burst outward, accompanied by a thunderous rumble that shook the ground. In the center of the flame-filled corridor stood a gigantic figure whose body was engulfed in blazing fire. Its eyes shone with golden light, radiating an overwhelming aura of power that pressed down upon anyone who approached.The Golden-Eyed Guardian.The creature did not speak, yet its gaze alone was enough to make the atmosphere grow even more tense. Without hesitation, Chen Nian stepped forward. In an instant, the golden sword in his hand shone brilliantly, reflecting the surrounding flames. With a swift leap, he passed Li Huai and charged directly toward the creature."Chen Nian, wait!" Li Huai shouted, but it was already too late.Chen Nian swung his sword toward the creature's neck. However, before the blade could touch its skin, the Golden-Eyed Guardian raised its arm. A shield of fire instantly formed before it, effor
