Chapter 879: Swordgrass, Guardian Spirit, Demons, and
An Unexpected Reward from the System
Editor: Henyee Translations
As soon as Jiang Chengxuan’s feet touched the vast expanse of the herb field, several streaks of sword light suddenly slashed through the void towards him. in that instant, Jiang Chengxuan could distinctly feel his brow, throat, and dantian being targeted by these sword lights.
“Hm? What’s this?”
His gaze sharpened in a flash.
The next moment, sword lights of green, red, yellow, white, and blue burst forth from his fingertips.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
The five-colored sword lights collided fiercely with the incoming sword lights.
Boom, boom, boom!
Explosions echoed through the air.
It was only then that Jiang Chengxuan could clearly see.
The assailant was not a cultivator but rows of verdant green spirit grass, growing side by side, resembling unsheathed sharp swords.
It seemed they sensed their attacks had been blocked by Jiang Chengxuan.
The green spirit grasses then condensed dozens more sword lights, this time even more powerful than before.
Each sword light tore tiny fissures in the void, indicating the power of the spirit grasses had reached Level 8.
“Interesting.”
Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
At this moment, he recognized these spirit grasses.
They were none other than the legendary Swordgrass, each strand containing a sliver of the essence of the sword path, a treasure coveted by all sword cultivators.
Unexpectedly, there were so many of them growing here.
Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan’s fingertips once again shimmered with green, red, yellow, white, and blue lights.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
In an instant, five differently colored sword lights shot out again, colliding with the incoming sword lights.
A thunderous sound filled the air.
The sword lights and the sword beams almost vanished simultaneously.
Swoosh!
At this moment, five-colored divine light shot out from behind Jiang Chengxuan and swept past the swordgrass in the blink of an eye.
In an instant, the once fiercely sharp Swordgrass drooped down, their formidable essence fading.
Jiang Chengxuan wasted no time as he collected all the Swordgrass.
At the same time.
Behind the Swordgrass, a plant with nine different colored petals, resembling a lotus, appeared.
It was the target of Jiang Chengxuan’s journey, the Nine-Colored Sky Lotus! Without hesitation, Jiang Chengxuan stepped forward, ready to collect the Nine-Colored Sky Lotus into his bag.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, a sense of imminent danger surfaced in his heart, causing his gaze to instantly sharpen.
His figure vanished from the spot in a flash.
A muffled bang sounded, and a miniature void black hole appeared where Jiang Chengxuan had just been standing.
“Huh?”
Jiang Chengxuan immediately turned around to see a shadow-like entity not far behind him, emitting a full malice towards him.
“A second guardian spirit?
Unexpectedly, this natural herb garden is not guarded by just one spirit. Fortunately, Xie Xiangyao and the others seemed not to have encountered any other guardians.
Otherwise, whether they could have secured the Nine-Colored Sky Lotus remains uncertain.”
With that thought, Jiang Chengxuan’s fingers once again burst with sharp sword lights.
There was a series of sizzling sounds.
The sword lights passed through the shadowy figure without causing any harm, which made Jiang Chengxuan’s pupils shrink slightly.
He blinked away again.
There was a loud bang.
The spot he had occupied before now bore another miniature black hole.
■’This guardian spirit seems vastly different from the previous one. It appears not to exist within this space but drifts in a different, similar void. Only when it attacks me does it momentarily overlap with this space.
So.
To deal with it, I must seize that one-in-a-million-second opportunity for a decisive strike.”
With these thoughts, Jiang Chengxuan’s figure flickered several times, each leaving behind a miniature black hole that was quickly repaired by the rules of this space.
BANG!
When he faced another attack from the guardian spirit, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes suddenly focused.
The five-colored divine light slowly emerged behind him, stabilizing the space. At the same moment, the heaven-connecting spiritual treasure, the Five Elements Diagram, transformed into the Golden Void Sword, instantly piercing into the core of the shadowy figure.
“Hiss!”
ROAR!
As if it did not belong to this void, a scream of anguish and rage echoed.
Jiang Chengxuan could clearly see, the moment his Golden Void Sword pierced into the shadow, it began to disappear at a rate visible to the naked eye.
In just a short moment, the shadow had completely vanished.
[Ding.]
However, it was at this moment that Jiang Chengxuan’s mind suddenly received a familiar system notification, causing a slight surprise in his heart. What’s this? Can defeating this guardian spirit also receive affirmation from the system?
But the next moment, his eyes narrowed slightly.
[Congratulations, Host, for achieving the First Kill of an Abyssal Demon, earning the Innate Ability. Demon Hunter.]
[Innate Ability: Demon Hunter – When facing demons, your attack power will leap across one realm.]
in simpler terms, although Jiang Chengxuan’s current cultivation is at Dao inception, when he faces Abyssal Demons and other demons, his attack will automatically be elevated to Dao Fusion.
Similarly.
If his attack power already exceeds Dao Inception, then with this talent, the generated power will reach the next realm, which is Dao Mastery.
Of course.
This talent is only effective against life forms such as Abyssal Demons.
Jiang Chengxuan had not expected to encounter an Abyssal Demon within this natural herb garden.
No, it should be said, within this new world, it was quite unexpected to find such entities.
Before this, he had mistaken it for a guardian spirit of this place.
If the creature he just killed was an Abyssal Demon, then was the first entity they encountered also an Abyssal Demon?
This was indeed very likely.
If the first creature they encountered was also an Abyssal Demon, then this new world might indeed be harboring many hidden dangers.
At the very least, Abyssal Demons have discovered this new world and, more gravely, might have already infiltrated it to some extent..
