Chapter 2500: Returning the Favour Hundredfold
Jian Chen paused after hearing Shangguan Mu’er’s words. He did not chase them down. Instead, he glared at the two Infinite Primes and asked sternly, “Mu’er, did they cause your wounds?”
This time, Shangguan Mu’er did not try to cover for them. She nodded gently and said, “It’s only some small injuries. It’s no big deal.”
Jian Chen glanced at the pale-faced Dao Gongming, who had an injured soul. He had encountered many matters like this in the past, so he could naturally tell why Shangguan Mu’er had started fighting the Primordial realm experts. He immediately sneered and said, “Hmph, if they were only G.o.dkings, I would consider letting this matter go. However, they’re two Primordial realm experts, yet they stooped low enough to lay their hands on you over a junior’s matter. I can never just let this matter be. Since they’ve injured you, I’ll return the favor a hundredfold.”
Killing intent erupted from Jian Chen’s body. He charged right towards Ge Tong who stood before Dao Gongming and directly threw a punch.
The punch shone with dazzling light. Powerful sword Qi condensed around the fist, causing s.p.a.ce to tremble and distort. The air produced terrifying sonic booms.
Not only did Jian Chen use the Laws of the Sword in the punch, but his strike even contained the Laws of Strength. As a result, the attack was extremely terrifying, enough to strike fear into people with a single glance.
Ge Tong’s expression changed drastically. He felt chills from the bottom of his heart as he faced Jian Chen’s punch. He felt his life being threatened. Moreover, the punch had locked onto his presence, preventing him from dodging at all. All he could do was forcefully receive it.
Ge Tong bellowed out, and his energy as a Second Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime surged out like a tidal wave. He did not hold back at all. He channeled half of his power into his armor as he held a huge sword as wide as a hand.
As an archean clan, all the Primordial realm experts who came from the Dao clan possessed plenty of low quality G.o.d artifacts. Ge Tong’s two-handed sword happened to be a low quality G.o.d artifact.
At that critical moment, he used the huge sword as a s.h.i.+eld, placing the wide blade in front of himself.
Boom!
Jian Chen’s punch struck the sword with devastating power, immediately causing the weapon to flicker with light. It trembled without any signs of stopping as it thrummed. It was like the artifact spirit was wailing out.
Ge Tong paled. When Jian Chen’s fist struck his sword, an unstoppable force pa.s.sed into his arms. The force was so great that even with his low quality G.o.d artifact armor, he struggled to protect himself.
With a series of cracks, his two arms drooped down powerlessly. They had been shattered by the terrifying force, and the sword in his hand had been knocked far away as well, creating a huge crater in a nearby mountain.
Jian Chen’s fist continued onwards without slowing down. After knocking the sword away, it continued to advance with the same, terrifying force. It shattered the protective energy around Ge Tong and struck his chest heavily with a deep thud.
Spurt!
Blood and pieces of organs sprayed from Ge Tong’s.
The armor on him rapidly dimmed. The G.o.d artifact was undamaged, but the terrifying force from Jian Chen’s punch still managed to pierce through the defences and land on Ge Tong.
The defences of the G.o.d artifact were very powerful, but Ge Tong was only a Second Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime after all. The difference between them was just too great, so great that it could not be made up for with the G.o.d artifact armor.
Ge Tong was knocked far away by Jian Chen’s punch, and Dao Gongming also cried out painfully after colliding with Ge Tong. He basically became stuck to Ge Tong, and they were launched far away together.
“Why did Jian Chen suddenly become so powerful…”
“The strength he just displayed is completely different from the rumours…”
“That strike was already on the level of Sixth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes. T- that’s unbelievable…”
The three observing ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Divine Sound all sighed in surprise. If it were not for the fact that it had occurred right before them, they would have never believed that Jian Chen had become a Primordial realm expert in just a few dozen years and a great expert among Infinite Primes at that.
They were all old monsters who had lived for millions of years. A few decades was only a blink of an eye to them. In such a short time, even if they managed to make any improvements, it would be almost insignificant. It would never be as impressive as what Jian Chen accomplished.
After all, the stronger they became, the more difficult it was to increase their strength. It would normally take millennia, several dozen millennia, or even hundreds of millenia before a breakthrough was achieved, especially after reaching the Primordial realm.
To them, going from just a G.o.dking to possessing the battle prowess of a Sixth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime in just a few dozen years was basically a miracle, a legend.
Of course, they still did not know about how Jian Chen had already killed a Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime in the Gloomwater sect. Who knows what they would be thinking once they found out about that.
Ba Bu bellowed out to another side, “Stop! We’re from the Dao…”
However, before he could finish speaking, Jian Chen arrived in from of him as a streak of light. Using the Laws of Strength and the Laws of the Sword together, he knocked Ba Bu away with a single punch.
Despite being a Fourth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime with the support of a G.o.d artifact, Ba Bu was still unable to block Jian Chen’s attack. Blood directly sprayed from his mouth as he rammed into and destroyed a string of mountains.
Jian Chen pursued. His eyes were cold, s.h.i.+ning sharply like swords. Invisible sword intent permeated his surroundings.
He extended a finger and gently waved it towards Ba Bu in the distance.
Immediately, a streak of light appeared. It was extremely small like a strand of hair. It shone with bright light, appearing several kilometres away with a single flash. It struck Ba Bu’s body with supreme sword intent.
Even though the strand of light seemed nothing special, it was much more powerful than Jian Chen’s previous two attack.
This was because he had used the power from the Ultimate Way of the Sword.
With the Ultimate Way of the Sword, even regular sword Qi would become much more powerful in his hands.
Boom!
With that, Ba Bu was blown away once again despite having only just regained his footing. This time, the injuries he received were even heavier. Blood constantly spurted out from his mouth. He had already become sheet-white.
As a matter of fact, a crack appeared on his armor near his waist.
The low quality G.o.d artifact had been damaged by the attack from the Ultimate Way of the Sword.
