A record-breaking rookie, the strongest in history!
During these days, while Jiang Xuan was with his Two Masters, they not only taught him various Artisan experiences but also revealed some information about Advanced powerhouses.
One of these pieces of information was about the advancement of a Martial Saint.
Jiang Xuan remembered clearly that, according to Elder Di, for every star a Martial Saint Advanced, their strength would experience an unimaginable, explosive growth.
In a sense, the gap between a Two-Star Martial Saint and a One-Star Martial Saint was even greater than the gap between a One-Star Martial Saint and a One-Star Martial Venerable!
Under such circumstances, it was self-evident how powerful the historical projection of the Martial Saint before him truly was.
After all, this Martial Saint, Zhuang Lingyuan, seemingly only crossed a small Realm to kill a powerful enemy, but in reality, it was equivalent to crossing a major Realm!
An existence that could cross a major Realm to kill an opponent was a top Prodigy in his youth, and after achieving success in his studies, he would be a top powerhouse!
"No wonder he was an Eight-Star Martial Master at ten years old... And at ten, his battle will and battle state of mind had already reached this level..."
Whoosh!
The next moment, the historical projection of Zhuang Lingyuan suddenly swung down the long blade in his hand.
Although the long blade was merely swung in the Void Realm, Jiang Xuan suddenly felt an incomparably strong life-or-death crisis, and instinctively opened his mouth to spray into the air.
Doo—!
A cyan pillar of light shot towards the Void Realm, then suddenly exploded, transforming into countless cyan light specks that dissipated.
At the same time, a hundred-meter-long phantom of a long blade in the air also dissipated.
"Ultimate Skill?"
Jiang Xuan's eyelids twitched; Zhuang Lingyuan had actually mastered an Ultimate Skill at ten years old?
Did this guy start Cultivating Ultimate Skills from infancy?
The ten-year-old historical projection of Zhuang Lingyuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he suddenly raised his long blade, rapidly approaching Jiang Xuan.
And just as he moved, hundreds of identical figures of Zhuang Lingyuan suddenly appeared around Jiang Xuan, and at the same time, above his head, a hundred-meter-long phantom of a long blade, carrying a strong wind, once again slashed down!
"Two Ultimate Skills?"
As Jiang Xuan was surprised, a light flashed in his hand, and the coiling dragon axe appeared.
Without hesitation, his internal true Qi rapidly poured into the coiling dragon axe, and he slammed it hard towards the ground beneath his feet.
Boom!!!
Black light rippled out, immediately scattering the hundreds of figures around him, and it was at this instant that Zhuang Lingyuan's main body approached Jiang Xuan, thrusting his long blade.
This thrust was extremely clever, even to the point of being incredibly tricky, aiming directly for Jiang Xuan's heart.
Jiang Xuan did not hesitate, and the giant axe in his hand also chopped towards Zhuang Lingyuan's head.
Although he was fighting a historical projection, if he was stabbed, he would truly die.
But Jiang Xuan still chose this injury-for-injury fighting style because he had confidence.
The next instant, Zhuang Lingyuan's long blade pierced towards Jiang Xuan's heart.
And the coiling dragon axe in Jiang Xuan's hand also chopped towards his head.
Clang!
A crisp sound rang out, followed by countless wispy cloud patterns emerging, blocking the tip of the long blade at Jiang Xuan's chest.
An Earth-Rank Magical Artifact, the bihuo yunlv armor!
This was precisely Jiang Xuan's confidence in daring to exchange injuries, because he simply could not be injured!
Seeing that his axe blade was about to chop into Zhuang Lingyuan's head, in an instant, Zhuang Lingyuan disappeared.
He vanished as if into thin air, without a trace visible to the naked eye.
Along with his disappearance, Zhuang Lingyuan's long blade also vanished.
But Jiang Xuan's gaze merely shifted, and the next moment, without hesitation, he swung his axe backwards.
As this axe was swung, a massive amount of black light erupted, almost submerging a hundred-meter radius behind him.
Within the black light, Zhuang Lingyuan's figure reappeared, his scalp still bleeding, yet he had already slashed his blade towards Jiang Xuan's neck!
Seeing that his previous attack was blocked by the armor Jiang Xuan wore, this historical projection of Zhuang Lingyuan immediately chose to launch a surprise attack from behind, aiming for the unprotected neck!
At this moment, Jiang Xuan's coiling dragon axe also chopped towards his chest, and Zhuang Lingyuan's historical projection flipped his other hand, taking out another long blade to block the coiling dragon axe.
"Such deep battle cunning..."
Jiang Xuan's brow twitched; this historical projection of Zhuang Lingyuan had tried to mislead him from the beginning, making him think he only had one blade.
Then, at such a critical moment of life-and-death struggle, he suddenly pulled out a second blade.
This was not merely the difference of an extra blade; his fighting style suddenly switched from single-blade to dual-blade, which would definitely disrupt the opponent's response at a critical moment!
Crack!
But the next second, Jiang Xuan's coiling dragon axe easily broke through the second blade that Zhuang Lingyuan's historical projection had taken out, then cut into his chest, splitting him into two.
The upper half of Zhuang Lingyuan's historical projection's body first trembled, his eyes showing an extremely surprised expression, as if he hadn't expected his long blade to be utterly unable to block this dark giant axe. Immediately after, both his upper and lower halves disintegrated.
Jiang Xuan retrieved the coiling dragon axe, his expression normal.
The coiling dragon axe, that was an Earth-Rank Magical Artifact. Although it seemed equivalent to a Grandmaster Craftsman artifact, its sharpness was actually far superior, as the Materials used to forge it were different; those from the Fantasy World were much more Advanced.
The two long blades in the historical projection of Zhuang Lingyuan's hands should also have been grandmaster-level artisan artifacts, which is why he used one long blade to block the coiling dragon axe while simultaneously using the other long blade to continue attacking Jiang Xuan.
But he hadn't expected the coiling dragon axe to be so sharp, directly cutting through a long blade that was also a grandmaster-level artisan artifact!
"This coiling dragon axe is really easy to use. If only it had the thunder pattern secret iron added..."
Jiang Xuan couldn't help but look forward to it. Just then, the dialogue box reappeared.
"Congratulations, you have successfully passed the final challenge of the Martial Master stage!"
"Total time used: 3 minutes and 26 seconds!"
"Your Rank has reached Level 10!"
"The natural spiritual object required for your seed of sequence upgrade will arrive tomorrow!"
"Your Old Days Project query permission upgrade request has been sent and is expected to be approved tomorrow!"
"The next stage of challenges will officially begin once you reach the Martial King Realm!"
These lines of text almost made Jiang Xuan dizzy. After sorting them out slightly, he nodded slightly.
"I can upgrade my seed of sequence tomorrow? And I can also get a glimpse of what that Old Days Project is..."
Immediately after, however, his gaze focused on one of the lines in the dialogue box.
"Why was my total time only 3 minutes and 26 seconds? Didn't it take more than half an hour to fight from Level 1 to Level 10 combined?"
After a brief thought, Jiang Xuan understood that this must only be counting the combat time, without including the generation time of the historical projections.
In fact, in every previous battle, the most time-consuming part was waiting for the historical projection to generate.
"The next challenge will have to wait until I Break through to the Martial King Realm, huh? I thought I could keep fighting indefinitely."
Jiang Xuan murmured a few words and chose to exit the martial extreme shadow holographic cabin... At the same time, at the Human Federation Headquarters, Old Days Project Laboratory.
"What? You said our Seed 102, from Level 1 to Level 10, only took a total of 3 minutes and 26 seconds?"
A middle-aged man with a square face looked at the data his subordinate had just submitted, utterly incredulous.
"Doesn't this mean... a new record has been set?!"
