Chapter 2064 - Four Dead, One Escaped
A bloody, finger-sized hole immediately appeared in the forehead of the late Godking. Her entire head had been pierced, causing red and white matter to spurt out from the back of her head. Her soul had been destroyed directly.
Her eyes bulged in disbelief. She refused to believe that a mere early Godking could be so terrifying. As a result, even though she was already dead, she could not rest.
At the same time, Jian Chen clashed with a male late Godking from the White Cloud sect. Chaotic Force filled his entire body as he became filled with explosive power. It was extremely terrifying. Moreover, the Laws of the Sword revolved around him, and with a single thought, a strand of sword Qi instantly condensed on his hand. It shone with dazzling light as he slashed out with Chaotic Force, directly clashing with the late Godking head on.
“Not only are you, a mere early Godking, not taking me seriously, but you even overestimate yourself and want to take me on in an open confrontation. You sure are bold, so let me show you the power of a late Godking so that you can personally understand just how great the effects of differing cultivation levels will cause,” sneered the man from the White Cloud sect. He looked at Jian Chen disdainfully as the sword in his hand pulsed with energy. He stabbed at Jian Chen with the power of laws from late Godking.
Jian Chen was only an early Godking right now, so in terms of laws, there was still a great difference compared to a late Godking. Even the fact that the Laws of the Sword possessed the greatest offensive power was unable to make up for this difference.
As a result, when they clashed, Jian Chen did not gain the upper hand in terms of laws. However, his Chaotic Force was extraordinary, possessing unimaginable power. The Chaotic Force in the sword Qi radiated with a violent, destructive presence as it cut through the laws of the late Godking like a hot knife through butter with the Laws of the Sword, directly dispersing it.
“Impossible. This is impossible. You’re clearly just an early Godking, so how did you block my attack?” The man’s eyes narrowed as disbelief filled his face. He was not just shocked about how Jian Chen had blocked his strike, but also due to the power in the strike.
The power of the strike left him completely astounded even though he was a late Godking. It actually numbed his entire right hand, causing him to lose all sensation in it. His hand that held the sword had ripped open, causing blood to pour out while the bones in his fingers had all shattered.
“Y- you were hiding your strength in the Divine Medicinal Garden? B- but you’re clearly just an early Godking, so how can you possess such great strength? A- are you a divine beast of great strength?” The man cried out as his face changed rapidly.
Jian Chen said nothing. His eyes also flickered with cold killing intent, and with a thought, a strand of Daluo Sword Qi instantly condensed. It shot through the man’s forehead with a flash of golden light.
Even though the man was a late Godking, he was not as powerful as Bai Qi or Bai He. Jian Chen could even kill the siblings when they worked together, so killing this person naturally did not take too much effort.
Their battle only lasted for a short moment. Kai Ya and Jian Chen both slaughtered their opponents despite possessing weaker cultivation. However, Chanlong and Xiao Zheng’s situation was not as great.
Chanlong was stuck receiving strikes from his late Godking opponent. He was a formations master, so he possessed great mastery over the Way of Formations. If he could use his formations, he could kill late Godkings effortlessly, but without them, even mid Godkings would cause great trouble for him with his personal battle prowess alone.
The late Godking who fought with Chanlong naturally knew that the latter was skilled with formations, so he launched a barrage of attacks right from the start, giving Chanlong no time to cast down formations. As a result, Chanlong vomited blood wildly as he was heavily injured. If it were not for the azure disc that protected him, he probably would have suffered even worse injuries.
Xiao Zheng completely lost the upper hand as well, forced into a retreat by the mid Godking. However, fortunately, Xiao Zheng was not a weaker early Godking even though his battle prowess could not be compared to those supreme prodigies. Coupled with how he had already reached the peak of early Godking and was only a step away from mid Godking, he was able to endure the swift attacks of the mid Godking for a while.
Elder Ying watched the battle in the distance with his arms crossed as he smiled faintly. He began to think about how to split all the heavenly resources after he obtained them all, but his face changed very soon. He stared at the two late Godkings slain by Jian Chen and Kai Ya as his heart churned.
“Oh no, we’re in trouble. They’re wolves in sheep’s clothing. Elder Xi, run away quickly. Go!” Elder Ying reacted extremely quickly and immediately called out to elder Xi. He did not waste any time himself either, turning around and fleeing into the distance without any concern for the other people on his side.
The two late Godkings Jian Chen and Kai Ya killed basically possessed the same strength as him. They had been killed off easily, so the other party could naturally kill off elder Ying effortlessly as well. Elder Ying understood this extremely well, so he chose to flee without any hesitation after seeing the two Godkings die.
“Linear Lightning Release!”
Jian Chen’s eyes locked onto elder Ying, and he pursued him as a bolt of lightning, stopping him from fleeing. Kai Ya, on the other hand, went to assist Chanlong, blocking the late Godking for him.
Elder Ying’s face became extraordinarily vicious when he faced Jian Chen who was clearly an early Godking but possessed frightening battle prowess. He yelled at elder Xi, who fled in the other direction, “Elder Xi, don’t forget to leak the fact that they have two hundred and sixty-six God Tier heavenly resources! We can’t let them have it easy, nor can we let them keep so many God Tier heavenly resources effortlessly!” As he said that, elder Ying did not fight with Jian Chen. He used a secret technique to continue fleeing, but a strand of sword Qi punched through his chest.
Elder Ying’s words were clearly an attempt to make Jian Chen realise that elder Xi was running away as well so that he could distract him and create an opportunity to escape. However, he failed in the end.
Elder Xi clearly understood elder Ying’s intentions. Her face immediately changed, and she cursed inside before activating a simple talisman in her Space Ring without any hesitation at all. It formed a barrier of energy around her as she used a secret technique to speed up by burning her essence blood.
Naturally, Jian Chen did not want to let elder Xi escape, as she would then leak the fact that they possessed so many God Tier heavenly resources. With a thought, he immediately shot a strand of Profound Sword Qi towards elder Xi.
Boom!
The Profound Sword Qi struck the protective barrier around elder Xi, causing it to rumble loudly. The barrier shook violently, but it did not shatter in the end. Elder Xi shot off with terrifying speed after burning her essence blood, instantly vanishing into the horizon.
“That talisman is impressive to be able to block a strand of my Profound Sword Qi. It should come from a Primordial realm expert,” Jian Chen was shocked as his face sank slightly. Then he killed off elder Ying with his full strength.
The battle ended very quickly. Aside from elder Xi, who managed to escape, all the other people from the White Cloud sect had been slain. Out of Jian Chen’s group, only Chanlong suffered some heavier injuries, while Xiao Zhen was only slightly wounded.
“We can’t keep the fact that we’ve obtained so many God Tier heavenly resources a secret anymore. It looks like it’ll be troublesome in the future,” said master Chanlong, but he showed no fear at all.
