Chapter 2600: A Complete Victory
“With our powers combined, w- we can probably rival senior Chu Jian and senior Yue Chao.” Jian Chen was in shock as he sensed their combined power.
Among the five of them, Yun Ziting was a Fifth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime, Su Qi was a Third Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime, Bai Rufeng was a Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, and Qing Shan had only reached Infinite Prime recently.
If it were other cultivators, even if they combined their powers through a formation, they definitely could not reach the level of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime.
The energy within a Fifth Heavenly Layer and a Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime did not vary by just quant.i.ty. There was also a difference in quality.
However, the Martial Soul lineage could easily achieve this feat through the Martial Soul Array.
“Eighth junior brother, who should we kill?” Qing Shan’s voice rang out in Jian Chen’s head.
As they stood in the Martial Soul Array, the five of them could communicate without words. They only needed to use their minds. They only needed to think of something, and the four other people could sense it at the same time. It was extremely profound.
“Let’s pick the weakest first. It’ll be much easier if we start with the weaker ones. We might not be able to kill the stronger ones with a single strike,” said Jian Chen. It was better to kill one than to injure them all. Moreover, the corpses of Grand Primes were too great of a temptation for him to miss out on.
Just a single corpse from an expert at such a level could provide immeasurable a.s.sistance to the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s growth.
The Immortal Devouring Orchid’s demand for corpses would only increase in the future. Its demand for their cultivation level would increase as well, so he needed to collect as many as he could.
“Even if we’re in the Martial Soul Array, we can injure Grand Primes at most just with the five of us. Killing them will be rather difficult. Use your Martial Soul Force to keep one of my opponents busy. Leave the killing to your senior brother,” Chu Jian said secretly. He fought against Zheng Hu and Changfeng Yun of the Four Symbols Alliance alone. He used his advantage of Martial Soul Force to temporarily match Zheng Hu and Changfeng Yun.
Jian Chen glanced down. He understood the peak experts of the Four Symbols Alliance a little and said, “The two of them are Changfeng Yun and Zheng Hu. Changfeng Yun became a Grand Prime many years ago, but it’s said that Zheng Hu only broke through recently. Kill him first.” Jian Chen’s eyes were cold. There was no pity at all.
Now, he had completely fallen out with the Four Symbols Alliance. They were enemies. Coupled with the factor of the young star lord, their relations.h.i.+p had reached a point where only one side could emerge alive.
“Let’s keep Changfeng Yun busy and make time for second senior brother,” Yun Ziting immediately said.
The next moment, the Martial Soul Array shone brightly. A power that could rival Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Primes erupted, suddenly shooting out as a pillar of dazzling energy. It headed right towards Changfeng Yun.
Changfeng Yun frowned. He was extremely stern. As a Grand Prime, an attack from a mere Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime was nothing in his eyes, but he dared not underestimate the Martial Soul lineage.
He equipped a set of G.o.d artifact armor. Energy surged around him, and the power of laws wrapped around him. He directly extended a finger.
That gesture contained the terrifying power of Grand Primes. That gesture abided with the world, possessing the profound truths of the world.
This was why a Grand Prime was terrifying. Their comprehension of the ways of the world had reached an extremely profound level. A casual strike from them possessed the might of the world.
Boom!
With that, the attack from the Martial Soul Array was dispersed by Changfeng Yun. Even though the attack had reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime when they worked together, which was equivalent to Chu Jian and Yue Chao, it still paled slightly if it was really compared to the two of them.
However, Changfeng Yun had only managed to disperse the power. There was nothing he could do about the Martial Soul Force within the attack.
The lingering Martial Soul Force seemed to have fused with s.p.a.ce. It was invisible to the eye and the senses of the soul. It shot into Changfeng Yun’s head like it was unstoppable.
Even though Changfeng Yun was protected by a G.o.d artifact, he was unable to stop the Martial Soul Force.
Changfeng Yun’s expression immediately changed slightly. At that moment, his attack became slightly sluggish as well.
“Soul-destroying technique!” On the mountain soul, all of their power gathered on Yun Ziting’s body. With a thought, the four others immediately felt their Martial Soul Force decrease drastically. The Soul-destroying technique had been used, forming an invisible sword that stabbed into Changfeng Yun’s soul in an instant.
The attack this time was several times more powerful than the last. Changfeng Yun immediately grunted. He felt like his soul was being stabbed by needles. He experienced a splitting headache.
Changfeng Yun sensed that the situation was bad. If Chu Jian attacked him at a moment like this, he would face life-threatening danger. Without any hesitation, he immediately retreated, pulling away from Chu Jian. He was ready to keep fighting after his soul had recovered.
With Changfeng Yun’s departure, only Zheng Hu was left fighting Chu Jian.
“Without the other person, you won’t be able to fight back against me at all. Killing you is a piece of cake,” Chu Jian said coldly. His eyes suddenly became pitch-black like two black holes in outer s.p.a.ce. It hid terrifying energy.
Zheng Hu’s face changed drastically when he saw Chu Jian’s eyes. He clearly knew what it was like when Martial Soul Force was used. This was no regular attack.
However, even though Zheng Hu had become vigilant, it was too late. Martial Soul Force was unblockable, and Chu Jian was able to use his Martial Soul Force with a single thought. When Zheng Hu noticed his eyes, Chu Jian’s Martial Soul Force had already shot out. It would arrive in a split second.
Immediately, Zheng Hu produced a grunt. He began to sway as he struggled to endure the pain from his soul. He temporarily lost sense of the world around him.
Swis.h.!.+
At the same time, there was a flash, and Chu Jian’s sword stabbed out light a bolt of lightning, piercing Zheng Hu’s head.
Zheng Hu had died.
Chu Jian flickered his sword, directly tossing Zheng Hu’s corpse onto the Martial Soul Mountain. After that, he continued towards Changfeng Yun.
“Zheng Hu is actually dead…” Changfeng Yun had gradually recovered. He stared at Zheng Hu’s corpse blankly as his forehead became laced with cold sweat.
“G.o.d dammit…” Gong Ji, Wu Lu, and the others all cursed inside. With Zheng Hu’s death, they had lost another peak expert. Victory gradually grew further away from them.
Luo Mantian and He Yidao were extremely stern. They stared at Zheng Hu’s corpse silently.
“Let’s retreat.” The Gentle Breeze Ancestor sighed gently. At that moment, he was extremely gloomy. He stared at Zhou Zhidao, Tong Wuming, and Lieyan Wuji, who had not taken part, before turning around and leaving.
Gong Ji, Wu Lu, and Changfeng Yun knew that the situation right now was disadvantageous to them. They stopped fighting and retreated without any hesitation at all.
Luo Mantian and He Yidao glanced at each other. They gritted their teeth and could only retreat with everyone else.
However, they did not return to the G.o.dsfallen clan and the Daoist Sect of Emergence. Instead, they directly went to the headquarters of the Four Symbols Alliance.
At the same time, all the formations around the headquarters of the Four Symbols Alliance were activated, unleas.h.i.+ng their most powerful defence. The entire Four Symbols Alliance entered a state of high vigilance.
