Chapter 387: The Mantis Stalks The Cicada, Unaware Of The Oriole Behind; Pawns Of Someone Else

How did they find this place? Jiang Luoshen was obviously perturbed. With the tremendous number of crossroads along this path, she thought it would take a huge deal of effort and luck for others to find the real tomb, yet so many various Sect Masters had suddenly showed up.

They must have split up and covered every crossroads before making it in here. How lucky of them to have found this place by coincidence, and the fact I helped remove the restrictions and arrays of this region gave them the upperhand. The golden-haired old woman beside Jiang Luoshen dully stated.

Simultaneously, she stood out and displayed her greatest strength as the might of the Sacred King Realm burst out, leaving those Sect Masters stunned. As Jiang Luoshens protector and pillar of strength, she naturally possessed unrivalled might.

Hold them off while I retrieve the Divinity Crystal. Shooting the Sect Masters a cold glance, Jiang Luoshen began to leg it as she cast a golden beam and charged straight towards the platform.

In the meantime, the members of the Godly Illusion Clan kept their guards up against their surroundings in fear that other parties might suddenly intervene.

That is the Divinity Crystal of the Prime Ancestor of the Godly Illusion Clan. Once we get our hands on it, we shall distribute it equally among us. How does that sound?

The Sect Masters who barged in enthusiastically leered at the purple crystal, sensing the vast aura and energy it was emitting. If they could absorb the purple crystal, they would undoubtedly receive an enormous boost to their cultivation and they might even break through the bottleneck and reach the Sacred King Realm, which had been frustrating them for years.

Upon those words, the other Sect Masters expressed their consent. Essentially the Divinity Crystal was as big as a fist, but it would still remain as an excellent treasure even if they were to divide one tiny chunk among themselves, which would still make their journey here more than worth it. To them, although the golden-haired woman was in the Sacred King Realm, there was no way she could take all of them on at the same time.

Princess, I can only hold them off for a while. Please retrieve the Divinity Crystal of the Prime Ancestor at once, and Ill be with you as soon as I find an opportunity to flee, the golden-haired old woman said to Jiang Luoshen as a gigantic golden tower appeared in her hand.

Filled with golden light, the gigantic golden tower harboured nine floors, resembling a golden blinding sun that shed its glaring rays upon the lands of the world. Upon the eruption of the might of the Sacred King Realm, thundering sounds reverberated, as though all disastrous calamities of the world happened in one instant.

There is no way you can fend us off, so be wise and surrender the Divinity Crystal. Do not be rash, or blame us not if it means the annihilation of you lot, The four Sect Masters before them stated with an apathetic expression and immediately drew their hands.

At once, intertwining, terrifying Order Divine Chains were summoned, as if the starry skies exploded upon the frightening burst of overloading energy. Failing to contain the shockwave, the air seemed to be tearing apart as the Sect Masters immediately cast peerless divine abilities. If it werent for the special arrays in this region, the site where the Prime Ancestor of Godly Illusion Clan had died, everything would have crumbled into a pile of ruins.

In that instant, a terrorizing battle broke out. Be it the golden-haired old woman or the four Sect Masters, they displayed their most powerful abilities, and the martial exchange of such a level instantaneously brought their surroundings to destruction.

Seeing that, Jiang Chen could feel his legs weakening as suffocating dread engulfed him. Compared to the formidable cultivators before him, he, given his strength, was nothing but an ant.

[If things go down bad, Ill have to run away.] As he was communicating with the Artifact Spirit of the Celestial Boat of Creation, he anxiously glanced at Jiang Luoshen, who was currently his greatest insurance. If she were to fall at this moment, there was no way the Sect Masters would allow him to live.

Kind Sir Jiang, perhaps we should take the opportunity At that moment, the face of Monk Pu Du also blanched. He assumed the Godly Illusion was sufficient, but the sudden siege of the four Sect Masters would clearly overwhelm them very soon. Although the rest of the Clan members were by no means weak, there was no way they could take on four powerful Sect Masters.

Why is the platform where the Prime Ancestor died preventing me from proceeding? What is wrong with this array? All of a sudden, Jiang Luoshen spoke, seemingly perturbed.

When she speedily approached the platform, a waft of golden mist followed by the emergence of a massive strange fluctuation stopped her from advancing any closer as the array within was awakened upon her touch. Nonetheless, the aura supposedly belonged to the Prime Ancestor of her Clan. Yet, it was stopping her from passing through.

Jiang Chen, what is going on? Jiang Luoshen turned to Jiang Chen and coldly asked as she noticed his intention to flee.

That should be an array left behind to prohibit anyone from acquiring the Divinity Crystal after the Prime Ancestors death. Itll take some time to dispel. Jiang Chen felt numbness in his head as his soul shivered when he was glared at by Jiang Luoshen. If she intended to kill him now, there was no way he could escape given his capabilities.

If you fail to remove the array, you wont be walking out of here alive today, Jiang Luoshen menacingly threatened.

Cursing in his heart, Jiang Chen was left with no choice but to endure and bear through the terrifying disturbance. Given his capabilities, he would unquestionably be unable to dispel the array, but if the Artifact Spirit of the Celestial Boat of Creation were to be given some time, it should be able to pull it off.

Right at that moment, the golden-haired old woman, who was battling the four Sect Masters, spewed a mouthful of blood as she fell from the air. Her hair was messily swaying as she was miserably covered in blood.

Although she was in the Sacred King Realm, she didnt attain her cultivation level by decent means, so she was unable to overcome a true Master in the Sacred King Realm, let alone the fact that there were four Sect Masters before her. Each possessed absolute strength, and were unparalleled young prodigies who conquered the world during their youth.

Initially, she was able to resist them, but as time went by, her strength gradually diminished.

Aunt Jin! Jiang Luoshens face drastically changed as she gritted her white porcelain teeth.

Hearing that, the golden-haired old woman shook her head and consumed a pill before getting back up and rushed back at her enemies. Her entire body was glowing, covered in golden gleams as she conjured a weapon during her charge.

With that, Jiang Luoshen grew even more restless. If the Grand Elder hadnt been murdered by Gu Changge, she wouldnt have to be so desperate, needing the golden-haired old woman to buy time for her.

How much longer will you be able to resist? Youll only burden yourself trying to resist. Be good and surrender the Divinity Crystal. That way, youll still make it through the day, the four Sect Masters coldly stated as they drew a gigantic palm that landed on the golden-haired old woman, inflicting severe injuries on her and causing her to cough up more blood. They were simply too powerful to deal with. Although they had yet to reach the Sacred King Realm, their battle power was not too far apart, and given that they were working hand-in-hand, they proved to be peerless.

Go! Help delay them! As Jiang Luoshen furiously gazed at the four Sect Masters, she commanded her followers to hold their enemies off. Jiang Chen, you better act fast!

Upon receiving their orders, the formidable cultivators of the Godly Illusion Clan, too, charged forward without any hesitation as they conjured artifacts of their own and exhibited their ultimate abilities. Alas, their effort proved to be futile as they were instantly driven back, spewing blood, and some of them even disintegrating from the devastating explosion.

Upon that sight, Jiang Luoshens face grew even more hideous as she clenched her delicate fists. Although she still held other methods in her hand, those were only for contingency purposes to save her own life. She admitted that she had been rash. If only she had brought more men, she wouldnt have been put in such an egregious situation.

Good, the array has been removed! Jiang Chens voice sounded out of nowhere. Heaving a sigh, he wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead as the weight on his shoulders was relieved.

Following the flash of light in his hand, the array before him began to crack open before turning into fragments. Due to this, the Artifact Spirit of the Celestial Boat of Creation spent a great deal of energy and almost fell back into deep slumber.

Sensing the terrifying, obstructive force fading away, Jiang Luoshen let out a sigh of relief as she intended to get on the platform to retrieve the Divinity Crystal.

*Boom!* All of a sudden, a blaring noise came from the corridor, leaving those in battle shocked. Even the four Sect Masters, who were attacking the golden-haired old woman, stopped what they were doing at that moment and turned away with a frown.

As the air trembled, an immensely piercing force suddenly approached. Powerful fluctuations swirled apart, as though they were petals drifting in the winds, as mighty Principles formed a sword that penetrated the air and slashing towards those in the battle.

Such an overpowered force instantly made the four Sect Masters drop their jaws in fear before hastily retreating, evading the blow. Nevertheless, the aftershock of the blow still injured them, making their blood gush out.

Whos there! They were obviously furious, feeling like the phrase the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

At the same time, coldness surged on Jiang Luoshens face, after which, she quickly withdrew an item from her storage ring and was on standby to activate it. The fact that someone else appeared right after the array on the platform was removed caused her to think that someone was hiding in the dark, watching how things play out the entire time.

Why is there another party? Jiang Chen tensed his brows tightly as he turned to the corridor.

Whats wrong? Did I come at a bad time? Why are you staring at me this way? The next moment, upon a soft chuckle, the figures of a man and a woman appeared at the entrance of the corridor. There was a sword energy flashing on the mans hand, instilling fear in all as though it was the end of the world.

Gu Changge Jiang Luoshen exasperatedly glared at the approaching young man with her golden eyes that were filled with unconcealable abhorrence and shock.
