Chapter 788: Chapter 785 Nascent Soul is Born!

“This is your own doing, don’t blame me!”

Wuo Jie burst out while suspended in mid-air, the True Yuan inside his body churning as tumultuously as the roaring Yangtze River, climbing up level by level.

His Dantian was like an egg hatching a chick, beginning to show mottled cracks.

Under the brutal assault of the raging True Yuan, his Dantian completely split open, and a being the size of an adult’s fist, like a baby, began to slowly stretch its body.

Dantian breaking shell, Nascent Soul is born!

This is the sign of breaking through the bottleneck and advancing to Nascent Soul.

However, if one takes a closer look, compared to other Nascent Soul cultivators, Wuo Jie’s Nascent Soul is clearly smaller and weaker.

In fact, this is not difficult to understand.

The path of cultivation speaks of “fate and law,” as opportunities come naturally, things fall into place.

If condensing the Nascent Soul is likened to a woman’s pregnancy and childbirth, then for others, it is a normal ten-month pregnancy leading to a successful childbirth.

But for Wuo Jie, it clearly belongs to a case of premature birth.

Although this allows his combat power to suddenly increase several times. It also greatly limits his potential for future development. It can even be said that this is the peak of his life, maintaining this level is already quite good, and surpassing it is as hard as ascending to heaven.

Originally, Wuo Jie had planned to come to Great Thunder Swamp to seek opportunities and naturally condense the Nascent Soul. But he never expected to be forced into a premature “premature birth” by a junior at the Foundation Establishment stage and two beasts, which for him, is a profound humiliation.

Seeing Wuo Jie advancing to condense the Nascent Soul at this moment, Li Chen, Lian Hongshang, along with the Mystic Thunder Python and Jiao Long, all looked stunned.

Worry filled Lian Hongshang’s beautiful eyes, but seeing Li Chen’s composure, her uneasy heart also settled down.

The massive body of the Mystic Thunder Python trembled slightly out of fear. As a high-level Demon Beast with intelligence no less than humans, it naturally knows very well what it means for the opponent to advance at this critical moment?

Comparatively, Jiao Long showed little fear. This isn’t because it is brave, but because its mind is immature and it knows not what fear is.

Wuo Jie stretched his muscles and felt that his whole body was filled with terrifying power capable of destroying heaven and earth.

“So this is the power that a Nascent Soul Strong People can have, truly powerful indeed!”

However, when he thought that if given a little more time, he would naturally break through the bottleneck and condense the Nascent Soul, gaining even more powerful strength and walking further along this path, at least reaching the pinnacle of the entire cultivation world, or even becoming a Great Power like Emperor Yu, refining the spirit and returning to the void, becoming an immortal.

Thinking of all these achievements now being out of his reach, anger surged in Wuo Jie’s heart.

His face contorted with ferocity, and he roared with murderous intent: “You killed my disciples and ruined my great endeavor, today all of you must die!”

Li Chen, unwilling to show weakness, chuckled coldly, “Heh, you think I can’t kill a Nascent Soul?”

As his words fell, Li Chen’s palm swept over the edge of the Dragon Abyss Sword. Blood gushed out, emitting a dazzling radiance.

“Array, rise!”

“Shua, shua, shua!”

Following Li Chen’s loud shout, sword shadows shimmering with cold light sprung up from the ground like bamboo shoots after a rain.

In an instant, centered on the Dragon Abyss Sword in Li Chen’s hand, three thousand Magic Swords were arranged into an array based on the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams.

Wuo Jie had never imagined that Li Chen still had a trump card, he was also astounded for a moment.

“Young man, it seems I really underestimated you. But even so, today you cannot escape your fate of being buried here!”

With the murderous words hardly out of his mouth, Wuo Jie fiercely slapped down a palm print that transformed into the towering Mount Tai, pressing down on Li Chen.

Li Chen looked up at the massive handprint that blotted out the sun and performed the Seven-star Dragon Abyss Breaking Sky Slash.

“Slash!”

“Roar!”

An ancient Dragon Soul, winding its way out from the sword, let out a roar that made souls tremble.

Even Wuo Jie, who had advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, shuddered involuntarily when faced with the ancient Dragon Soul.

However, he quickly recovered his senses. This Dragon Soul was merely a residual soul, extremely weak. Apart from its innate deterrence, its current combat strength was probably not as formidable as that of the Mystic Thunder Python.

With this in mind, Wuo Jie did not hesitate, his Mountain Shifting Ruler suddenly surged in size by dozens of feet, like the Ruyi Jingu Bang wielded by Sunx Monkey, and he ferociously blasted it over.

Li Chen knew that neither the Dragon Soul nor the Sword Array could trap a Nascent Soul Expert like Wuo Jie, and it could only briefly block him.

Thus, he had to race against time to awaken the Meteorite Heart within his body, circulate the Nine Heavens Star Technique, and slay him powerfully.

Seeing the surge of True Yuan around Li Chen and the flickering myriad lights, Wuo Jie already understood that he must be operating some strange Cultivation Technique.

“What sort of person is this kid, to have such top-grade Magical Treasures on him?”

Wuo Jie’s thoughts spiraled, and he revisited all Heavenly Pride elites he knew from the Ten Great Heavenly Sects and the Four Great Super Families in his mind, yet none matched Li Chen.

“Regardless of who he is, he must die today!”

Wuo Jie firmed his resolve to kill, and his attacks on Li Chen grew increasingly fierce.

Although the Dragon Soul was initially very intimidating, it was after all just a residual soul, and it couldn’t withstand the strong assault of Wuo Jie, a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator. If not for the Sword Array as a support, even this residual soul might have been shattered by now.

Lian Hongshang saw the dire situation and summoned Jiao Long to block Wuo Jie, buying time for Li Chen to execute the Nine Heavens Star Technique.

“You’re courting death!”

Seeing Lian Hongshang and Jiao Long charging over, Wuo Jie disdainfully snorted and swung the Mountain Shifting Ruler, fiercely smashing it down.

Jiao Long had just been struck on the head by the Mountain Shifting Ruler and was slightly stunned.

Therefore, when it saw Wuo Jie swinging the Mountain Shifting Ruler, it subconsciously wanted to retreat.

However, when it turned to see Li Chen, it let out a whimpering sound, proudly raised its head high, and bravely met the attack.

“Clang!”

The Mountain Shifting Ruler, like a Ruyi Jingu Bang, smashed hard onto Jiao Long’s Scale Armor, sparking a burst of magnificent fireworks that dazzled the eyes.

Behind the brilliance of the fireworks, however, lay Jiao Long’s skin splitting and flesh bursting, causing it so much pain that it grimaced and nearly went mad.

“Purple Qi Comes from the East!”

Lian Hongshang wielded the Purple Shadow Immortal Sword, her aura as powerful as a rainbow, transformed into a purple phoenix that cried to the heavens.

“Hmph, overestimating your ability!”

Wuo Jie snorted indignantly and brutally smashed his dark Mountain Shifting Ruler down.

“Boom!”

The phoenix formed from the condensed purple Sword Shadow was instantly dispersed by the strike, letting out a despairing cry.

“Spurt!”

Lian Hongshang took a heavy hit, her throat suddenly sweetened, and she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, crashing heavily to the ground.
