Chapter 2077: Against a G.o.d Artifact (Two)

To many G.o.dkings, G.o.d artifacts were items that they could only wish for. It could even be considered as an item of legends, as it would be very difficult for them to see one. Now that mister Shu had revealed his G.o.d artifact, he immediately became the centre of attention, drawing the gazes of everyone. Many G.o.dkings who gathered in the surroundings looked at mister Shu with flickering gazes as burning desire that was hidden in their hearts sprang into existence. However, after comparing their strength, they could only suppress this desire helplessly.

In their eyes, Jian Chen was a very powerful and terrifying person. If supreme G.o.dkings from the G.o.dkings’ Throne were not present, it would be very difficult to find him an opponent. Yet at that moment, everyone believed that mister Shu was far more powerful than Jian Chen with the G.o.d artifact in his hand.

“Jian Chen is truly done for this time…”

“No G.o.dking can withstand the might of a G.o.d artifact. They’re dead for sure…”

“I just hope that person called mister Shu doesn’t go too far, that he leaves something behind that we can scavenge from…”

All the G.o.dkings present sighed secretly. None of them believed Jian Chen was mister Shu’s opponent. After all, a G.o.d artifact could not be underestimated. It had just appeared, yet the disturbance it had caused was breathtaking. Was there anyone who could put up a fight against it among G.o.dkings?

In a single instance, the terrifying black wind engulfed Jian Chen. It revolved around Jian Chen with a terrifying force that was enough to rip earth from the ground as it cut at him like blades. Not only did it prevent Jian Chen from leaving, but the light around Jian Chen immediately darkened from the black whirlwind as well. His clothes were reduced to tatters in a split second, leaving behind countless cut-like marks.

The wind was just too frightening. Even Jian Chen’s Chaotic Body struggled to endure it. Countless cuts appeared on him as his skin was split open. Chaotic blood oozed out, reducing him to a b.l.o.o.d.y figure in a single instance.

Yun Xin beside the fifth prince became worried when she saw Jian Chen suffer so much right from the start. She pleaded, “Fifth prince, Jian Chen saved my life after all. Please let Jian Chen go for me. As long as you let Jian Chen go, I will never forget your kindness for the rest of my life.”

The fifth prince’s eyes became even colder when he heard that. Not only did Yun Xin’s pleadings fail to lessen the fifth prince’s killing intent towards Jian Chen, but it had even made it more intense instead.

“I’ve already given Jian Chen a chance, but he’s not clever enough. Death would be a light punishment,” the fifth prince said icily.

Despair flickered through Yun Xin’s eyes immediately. She looked at the people beside the fifth prince deeply and thought, “Jian Chen, I am not someone who is devoid of grat.i.tude. I will remember your kindness. If you die here today, I swear I will take revenge for you in the future.”

Behind, Yun Lianqing sighed inside. Out of all the G.o.dkings of the Yun family, he was on the best terms with Jian Chen, yet there was nothing he could do in the current situation.

“It looks like G.o.d artifacts are only so-so!”

At this moment, Jian Chen, who was trapped in the black whirlwind and that many people believed would not last much longer, suddenly called out coldly. The sword in his hand suddenly shone brightly and turned into a huge stream of light that he swung out with.

The sword Qi was as intense as torrential rain as it spanned across the sky. It also contained devastating Chaotic Force.

Boom!

The sword Qi collided with the black whirlwind. As the two powerful forces clashed, they created deafening sounds. Jian Chen used this opportunity to break free from the whirlwind, stepping out from it.

Even though Jian Chen was covered in blood right now and was in quite a miserable shape, only Jian Chen knew that his wounds were only scratches. They had not reached his tendons or bones.

After all, he had already reached the twelfth layer of the Chaotic Body. The toughness of his body alone was no less than a defensive high quality saint artifact.

When he emerged from the whirlwind, his wounds healed at a visible rate.

“What terrifying regeneration…” The surrounding G.o.dkings naturally saw this. They all gasped as they looked at Jian Chen like they were looking at a monster.

Mister Shu’s eyes narrowed, and he became slightly sterner.

However, at this moment, an intense golden light condensed around Jian Chen, forming a strand of Daluo Sword Qi in a single instance. It shot towards mister Shu. At the same time, Jian Chen fused with his sword and charged towards mister Shu behind the sword Qi.

Mister Shu remained calm and composed. He was extremely confident as if no one could triumph over him. He gently swung his fan, and it created an extremely brutal gust of wind that blew towards the sword Qi.

As the sword Qi dispersed, Jian Chen had already shot over with his sword. His presence churned as he gave off shocking battle intent. He stabbed out with all his strength.

Mister Shu’s expression did not change at all. Faced with Jian Chen’s lightning fast strike that contained shocking power, he only placed his fan in front of him and blocked the attack.

Jian Chen and mister Shu’s battle was extremely fierce. The two of them struck out, clashed, and collided time and time again. The energy ripples were so terrifyingly powerful that many observing G.o.dkings shook in surprise.

This was because both mister Shu who used a G.o.d artifact and had reached the peak of G.o.dking long ago and Jian Chen who used a supreme quality saint artifact and was only an early G.o.dking displayed extremely shocking battle prowess. It made many late G.o.dkings s.h.i.+ver in fear.

The G.o.dkings in the surroundings backed up time and time again. Many early and mid G.o.dkings were completely unable to endure the terrifying shockwaves from the battle.

In particular, mister Shu’s Cataclysmic Onyxwind Fan would create a terrifying gust of wind each time he swung it. The wind was so powerful that even a few late G.o.dkings did not dare to come in contact with it.

Boom! Boom! Boom…

Booms constantly rang out in the sky. Jian Chen did not hold back at all, unleas.h.i.+ng his full strength against mister Shu. They fought their way up into the sky, and then back to the ground, crossing several tens of thousand kilometers. Sharp sword Qi mingled with the whistling dark wind, splaying out in the air like beautiful fireworks. Terrifying ripples of energy shook up the surroundings, where people a million kilometers away could sense it clearly.

Jian Chen was battered and bruised now. Chaotic blood dripped from the sky, as he had become completely bloodied as he fought mister Shu. He had completely lost the upper hand.

Even though Jian Chen seemed to be very heavily injured, he did not show any weakness at all. Instead, he became bolder the more he fought. Not only did the Chaotic Body grant him a superior physique and regeneration, but it had also given him a terrifying amount of endurance as well.

Before him, mister Shu had gone from indifferent at the very start to sternness. His snow-white clothes had also become splashed with blood. This was his own blood.

Jian Chen’s strength had completely exceeded his expectations, so he discovered that even with a G.o.d artifact, he struggled to kill Jian Chen immediately.

In the distance, Mo Cheng watched the battle sternly. After becoming a G.o.dking, the strength that Jian Chen displayed had completely exceeded his expectation as well.

Cang Ying stared at their battle as well from beside Mo Cheng. He said slowly, “The person with the G.o.d artifact is not weak. With his strength, it’s enough for him to make it onto the G.o.dkings’ Throne. However, the rankings on the G.o.dkings’ Throne only has one thousand places, where it only records one thousand of the strongest G.o.dkings, so making it onto the G.o.dkings’ Throne is not necessarily enough to leave behind your name. He probably failed to leave his name on the G.o.dkings’ Throne. As for that person called Jian Chen, he’s able to fight an expert like that to such an intensity despite only having just become a G.o.dking while being injured. He’s a complete deviant.”

“Regardless of the outcome, Jian Chen’s name will be learnt by many after this battle…”

Below, Kai Ya also watched silently as Jian Chen fought mister Shu. She did not interfere as she murmured, “Jian Chen is suffering from the G.o.d artifact. If that person called mister Shu did not have a G.o.d artifact, Jian Chen’s strength would be more than enough to defeat him, and if Jian Chen uses all of his trump cards, he should be able to kill him. That power Jian Chen uses is very powerful, but I feel that it’s somewhat familiar for some reason, but I can’t remember why.”

To another side, the fifth prince of the Sky Empire revealed an extremely ugly expression. He watched Jian Chen fight mister Shu with great intensity as he felt disbelief. He struggled to accept this.

He understood mister Shu’s strength, and with a G.o.d artifact in hand, he was someone who could do whatever he wished in the Neptunean Divine Palace even though he was unable to unleash the full might of the G.o.d artifact. However, he was now locked in combat with someone who had just become a G.o.dking for quite a short time.

“G.o.d dammit,” the fifth prince cursed inside. Only now did he realise just how terrifying of a person he had offended.
