Chapter 408: Evenly Matched

Under this dragon-shaped sword phantom, Zhang Xuan’s speed suddenly increased by several times. One could almost only see an afterimage flashing past Jian Chen in all directions.

Moreover, the dragon-shaped sword phantom’s speed was getting faster and faster. In the end, at the instant the dragon-shaped sword phantom flashed past, the dragon-shaped sword phantom had already come near Jian Chen.

Jian Chen looked at the dragon-shaped sword phantom, and his eyes couldn’t help but reveal a look of astonishment.

Jian Chen’s eyes flashed with a cold light. He suddenly raised the sixth-grade long sword in his hand and slashed at the incoming dragon-shaped sword phantom.

Immediately, the entire sky was enveloped by Jian Chen’s sword energy. Under the cover of this sword energy, ripples seemed to have formed in the void and rippled.

The sword energy was like a wave, sweeping towards the dragon-shaped sword phantom.

At this moment, the dragon-shaped sword phantom on Zhang Xuan’s body collided with the sword shadow.

Immediately, dazzling lights burst out.

The dragon-shaped sword phantom and the sword shadow collided with each other at this moment. Immediately, a loud sound was heard, and both of them exploded at the same time.

Under the explosion, the clothes on Zhang Xuan’s body were torn apart, and a few wounds appeared on his body.

“Not bad!” Zhang Xuan looked at the wounds on his body with a look of admiration. He was obviously very satisfied with the collision just now, and there was an excited smile on his face.

Jian Chen had always been on guard against Zhang Xuan who was in front of him. The other party was very strong, and he was definitely not on the same level as those cultivators just now.

This was the true opponent Jian Chen desired. Those people just now were just cannon fodder. At this moment, Zhang Xuan was the true opponent.

Zhang Xuan looked at Jian Chen’s indifferent expression and slightly narrowed his eyes. A fierce look appeared in his eyes.

He said to Jian Chen, “Although your attack is not bad, do you want to beat me? You’re still wishful thinking. Now, I’ll send you on your way!”

After finished his words, Zhang Xuan’s arms shook, and the sword shadow that was wrapped by the dragon-shaped sword phantom suddenly left his arms.

It fell off. The moment the sword shadow left Zhang Xuan’s arms, Zhang Xuan also disappeared from Jian Chen’s sight.

With a whoosh, Zhang Xuan appeared behind Jian Chen like a ghost.

His palms slapped toward Jian Chen’s back.

Sensing the danger coming from behind, Jian Chen turned to the right and dodged.

Sword energy bloomed from the long sword, forcing Zhang Xuan to retreat. However, Zhang Xuan had no intention of retreating. He faced the terrifying sword energy head-on.

The dragon-shaped sword phantom in his hand continued to attack Jian Chen. The speed under his feet also increased dozens of times. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of Jian Chen.

The dragon-shaped sword phantom in his hand stabbed straight at Jian Chen’s back. Sensing the situation, Jian Chen hurriedly turned around and raised his long sword to block.

“Clang!” A crisp sound rang out. Jian Chen’s long sword and Zhang Xuan’s long sword collided fiercely. Suddenly, there was a violent roar, and a majestic gust of wind blew out from where the two had clashed.

At this time, Jian Chen’s legs could not help but retreat.

“Not bad, not bad. I didn’t expect you to actually stand firm before my attack. I’ve underestimated you a little.”

Zhang Xuan looked at the dragon-shaped sword phantom in his hand, but it actually did not cause any harm to Jian Chen. The surprise in his heart grew bigger, and he could not help but praise Jian Chen.

When Jian Chen heard Zhang Xuan’s praise, the surprise in his heart was no less than his performance. He knew that Zhang Xuan’s strength was extremely strong, but he did not expect it to be so strong to such an extent.

Zhang Xuan looked at Jian Chen with an evil smile hanging on the corner of his mouth, but there was no fear at all in his eyes. There was only a provocation to Jian Chen, and only victory was found in his eyes.

The dragon-shaped sword phantom in his hand shook, and the dragon-shaped sword phantom attacked once again.

At this time, Zhang Xuan’s body moved to the side again, and the dragon-shaped sword phantom brushed past his body.

Zhang Xuan rushed up again, and the dragon-shaped sword phantom in his hand slashed down at Jian Chen again.

“As expected of the dragon spirit body. It’s indeed very powerful!” Jian Chen thought to himself. He leaned back to avoid Zang Xuan’s attack, and Zang Xuan pounced forward, too. Zhang Xuan waved the dragon-shaped sword shadow again and slashed down at Jian Chen.

This time, the dragon-shaped sword phantom was about twice as big as before. Moreover, its power was about twice as great as before.

“What a terrifying power.” Jian Chen looked at the dragon-shaped sword phantom that was slashing toward him and exclaimed in his heart.

At the same time, he also knew that if he didn’t use his full strength to deal with this move, the one who would die would be him.

The sixth-grade long sword in his hand swept out horizontally. Moreover, Jian Chen’s long sword carried sword energy this time.

With successive explosions, the dragon-shaped sword phantom collided with the sixth-grade long sword and instantly exploded.

As for Zhang Xuan, he was sent flying backward. Yet, Jian Chen stood on the spot with a calm expression.

And in his hand, the sixth-grade long sword emitted waves of dazzling silver light.

Waves of majestic sword energy shot out from the sixth-grade long sword, forming light pillars that shot high into the sky.

These light pillars shot toward Zhang Xuan who was in the sky one after another.

“10,000 Swords Return To The Origin!” Jian Chen let out a loud shout, and the long sword in his hand slashed toward the sky.

Seeing Jian Chen’s sudden attack, Zhang Xuan was startled, and then a cold smile appeared on his face.

The dragon-shaped sword phantom in Zhang Xuan’s hand flew up high again.

Jian Chen looked at Zhang Xuan, and the coldness in his eyes became even more intense. He rushed toward Zhang Xuan, and the sixth-grade long sword in his hand slashed toward Zhang Xuan one after another.

Zhang Xuan’s figure continued to jump in the air. After a while, he arrived at a high place.

The two of them glared at each other, and the majestic spiritual energy on their bodies kept rising into the sea of clouds. “Again!” The two of them fought again, and Zhang Xuan fought with Jian Chen with the dragon-shaped sword phantom in his hand.

Each and every move of the two of them was extremely threatening. Whether it was their strength or speed, they had reached an extremely terrifying level. Streaks of sharp sword light continuously burst out around the two of them.

“Rumble!” Sword light shot out in all directions around Jian Chen and Zhang Xuan, and sword energy filled the air. The spiritual energy on their bodies continuously exploded at this moment.

Both of their movement techniques were as fast as lightning. The sword energy on Jian Chen’s long sword kept slashing at Zhang Xuan while Zhang Xuan’s body kept moving around Jian Chen.

The two of them were fighting in the air.

The long sword in Jian Chen’s hand shot out sharp sword energy from the tip of Jian Chen’s sword toward Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Xuan didn’t want to be outdone either. Sword energies shot out from Zhang Xuan’s dragon-shaped sword phantom toward Jian Chen one after another.

The tip of the sword in Jian Chen’s hand kept rotating, forming sword movements that shot toward Zhang Xuan.
