170: C170 An Intense Battle

C170 An Intense Battle

Chen Ren used a tree branch to simulate sword intent, forcing Chen Ziheng to defend with his sword, forcing him into a very sorry state.

After that, Chen Ren did not wait for this move to be used again. He continued to swing the tree branch in his hand, drawing out a profound trajectory as he attacked Chen Ziheng.

Seeing Chen Ren's tree branch swing down, Chen Ziheng collected his thoughts and used the same sword move to block Chen Ren's attack.

Chen Ren's previous attack was mainly out of Chen Zichen's expectations, causing Chen Zichen to be unable to react in time.

However, after Chen Ziheng withdrew his attention, he immediately understood that Chen Ren's sword move was not very profound at all.

The surrounding people were all experts as well. Very quickly, they saw who was stronger and who was weaker between the two of them.

A trace of astonishment flashed in the eyes of the crowd. Their eyes were also filled with disappointment.

As expected, when the tree branch in Chen Ren's hand was about a foot away from Chen Zichen's body, Chen Zichen's long sword was already close to Chen Ren's chest.

Even the clothes on Chen Ren's chest cracked under the blade of Chen Zichen's sword.

At this critical moment, Chen Ren's body twisted and he barely moved half a foot to the left.

Although Chen Ren's body moved away, in the end, he was unable to completely dodge this attack. The sword qi on Chen Zichen's sword still left a three-inch-long wound on his chest.

Although this wound was not serious, it also showed that there was a huge gap between Chen Ren and Chen Zi Teng.

After Chen Zichen struck out with this sword, he did not show mercy and attacked Chen Ren again.

Chen Ren's body had just stabilized and he was not prepared at all. Seeing Chen Ziteng's sword attack coming at him, Chen Ren only had time to block Chen Ziteng's sword with the tree branch in his hand.

"Crack!" When Chen Ziteng's sword hit the tree branch in Chen Ren's hand, a clear cracking sound was heard.

The tree branch in Chen Ren's hand was cut three inches long by Chen Zichen's sword.

Although the flowers and trees here were like fine iron, the sword in Chen Zichen's hand was even more extraordinary.

Although the branch only blocked him for an instant, this instant was enough for Chen Ren to react.

Chen Ren borrowed the momentum and leaped. His body landed about five to six meters to the right, dodging Chen Zichen's attack.

By the time Chen Zichen used his old technique, Chen Ren had already completely stabilized his body. The tree branch in his hand slanted to the ground as he coldly looked at Chen Zichen.

"Let's see how many more times this broken tree branch of yours can withstand!" Chen Ziteng said with a face full of resentment.

After saying this, Chen Ziheng's body swayed, and his sword fiercely hacked down towards Chen Ren's head.

After the previous attack, Chen Ziying simply used the simplest method to force Chen Ren to fight head on.

Seeing Chen Ziteng's rude and unreasonable attack, Chen Ren's expression remained indifferent. His body flashed to the left and the tree branch in his hand fiercely swung toward Chen Ziteng.

Chen Zichen originally wanted to force Chen Ren to fight head on with him, but he didn't expect Chen Ren to fall for it.

Seeing that Chen Ren's attack seemed to be able to arrive before him, Chen Zichen's expression changed slightly and he hurriedly dodged.

After Chen Zichen dodged the attack, he steadied his body and immediately counterattacked Chen Ren.

Seeing Chen Zichen immediately counterattack, Chen Ren did not give in at all and directly counterattacked Chen Zichen.

However, this was Chen Ren's first time coming into contact with the Sword Dao. After all, the Sword Dao was very unfamiliar and was not as good as Chen Ziteng, who had been immersed in the Sword Dao for many years.

However, if someone took a closer look, they would be able to discover that Chen Ren's Sword Dao was constantly improving and becoming familiar.

At the very beginning, the battle between Chen Ren and Chen Zichen had been completely dominated.

In terms of offense and defense, Chen Zichen had practically occupied all of his attacks. Chen Ren could only barely resist.

In addition, Chen Ren had to try his best to avoid his tree branches from colliding with Chen Zichen's sword.

Otherwise, he might be sliced in half by Chen Zichen's sword.

This way, the situation became more difficult for Chen Ren.

Chen Ren's heart was also at peace now. He knew that this might be a chance for him, a chance to comprehend the Sword Dao.

Chen Ren released his perception as much as he could, firmly locking onto Chen Ziteng's every move.

Chen Zichen's breathing and trajectory when he struck out with his sword could even be sensed by the fluctuations of the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth when Chen Zichen struck out.

Chen Ren's perception was more sensitive than divine sense to begin with, so Chen Zichen did not notice anything when Chen Ren probed.

Gradually, Chen Ren became more and more familiar with Chen Zichen's sword moves, and he could think of more and more ways to deal with them.

Hence, Chen Ren could occasionally counterattack. Although he was still at a disadvantage, the situation was getting better and better.

Time passed bit by bit, and Chen Ren gradually regained 10% of his offensive power.

In the beginning, Chen Ren had been imitating Chen Zichen's Sword Dao, and his attacks were not much different from Chen Zichen's.

However, as time passed, everyone discovered that Chen Ren's sword aura seemed to have gained some liveliness.

Previously, Chen Ren was completely imitating Chen Zichen's sword moves, but now, Chen Ren seemed to have gained some insight into sword moves and added it to his sword moves.

Under everyone's astonished gazes, Chen Ren actually gradually reversed his disadvantage in the battle.

At some point, Chen Ren and Chen Zichen's offensive and defensive momentum actually became fifty-fifty...

Furthermore, because he had just come into contact with the Sword Dao, Chen Ren felt extremely novel and his interest was also increasing.

Compared to the two of them, Chen Ren was getting more and more excited the more they fought. He was becoming more and more energetic, but Chen Ziheng was gradually showing signs of fatigue.

Although during this period of time, Chen Ren's tree branch had still been touched by Chen Zichen's long sword a few times, and it had also been cut off a few times.

However, this way, Chen Ren's situation would become even more dangerous, forcing Chen Ren to use even more exquisite sword moves.

Chen Ren's tree branch became shorter and shorter, but the power of Chen Ren's sword became greater and greater.

Occasionally, Chen Ren would be able to use a sword move that was traceless like an antelope's horn. Usually, at this time, the surrounding people would cheer secretly.

At the beginning, Chen Zikun and the others had also heard the rumors about Chen Ren and the Sacred Heart Garden.

However, in their opinion, there were only two possibilities for Chen Ren's rumors.

One was that Chen Ren wanted to use this opportunity to gain fame in the Chen family.

The other possibility was that Chen Ren had offended someone and was rumored to be using someone else's hands to teach Chen Ren a lesson.

Later on, when they found out that Chen Ren could not cultivate, they were even more certain that Chen Ren wanted to make use of the public to broaden the horizons of the decision-making level of the family.

Among the Chen family's younger generation, other than Chen Ziying, most of the true experts had lost interest in Chen Ren.

But now, it seemed that Chen Ren was not as terrible as the rumors said.

From the performance of Chen Ren and Chen Ziying in this battle, Chen Ren's comprehension ability was very good. He was even an existence that was as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns in the entire Chen Family.2

Once such a person entered the core of the family, he would definitely be the target of nurturing.

If nothing unexpected happened, Chen Ren would soon become the core of the family's younger generation.

However, being unable to cultivate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was always a hard injury to Chen Ren. This bit of hindrance also determined that Chen Ren was far from being able to become a peerless expert.

After all, if one couldn't cultivate the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, then the realm of the professional realm would be limited, and it would be impossible to reach the peak.

Secondly, without energy in his body, he would not be able to use many moves.

Just like now, Chen Ziteng's situation was gradually stabilized by Chen Ren, and he even began to faintly gain the upper hand.

Hence, Chen Ziteng could only wave out sword qi from time to time, forcing Chen Ren to retreat.

When faced with those rapid sword qi attacks, Chen Ren also felt a great headache.

Usually, when experts fought, when they encountered sword qi, they would use sword qi to directly block it.

But Chen Ren did not have energy in his body, so he could not release sword qi no matter what.

Every time he encountered such a situation, Chen Ren could only dodge in a sorry state.

However, when dodging the sword qi released by Chen Zi Teng, Chen Ren could feel that his movement technique was also becoming more and more proficient.

The attacks between the two of them gradually fell into a stalemate. However, no one knew how long this stalemate would last.

This was because Chen Ren was still learning from Chen Zichen while he was fighting. Once Chen Ren was familiar with the influence of Chen Zichen's sword Qi, Chen Ren would be able to continuously increase his advantage and even turn the entire situation around.
