Chapter 2355: Martial Soul Mountain Descends
“Do you think you can change something with your arrival? This isn’t your Martial Soul Mountain. You can’t act as you wish,” the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall growled.
“Even if I can’t change anything, I can keep your Radiant Saint Hall busy at the very least, so I can stop you from harming the eighth brother of our Martial Soul lineage,” Hun Zang chuckled. Then he glanced past all the peak experts present while remaining at ease and fearless. He clasped his fist and said, “Everyone, Jian Chen is the eighth brother of our Martial Soul lineage. I hope you can do it for the sake of our Martial Soul lineage and not harm Jian Chen.”
“We only want the Anatta Tower. Get him to hand it over, and we won’t make things difficult for him at all…”
“Hun Zang, your Martial Soul lineage can take your person, but you can’t take away the Anatta Tower…”
“That’s right. We can let Jian Chen go unscathed for the sake of your Martial Soul lineage. We can let you take him away. However, you must leave behind the Anatta Tower…”
…
The peak experts gathered there all called out. They were determined.
Even though Hun Zang’s cultivation was nothing special in their eyes, none of them dared to underestimate him. Instead, a number of the peak experts even revealed some fear.
Surrounded, Jian Chen remained composed. He watched this scene coldly, and the light in his eyes flickered.
From how these people treated Hun Zang, he could already tell that even though the Martial Soul lineage could not give birth to Grand Primes, they were not as weak as he had imagined them to be.
In particular, he discovered with his enhanced senses that although Hun Zang’s cultivation was the lowest out of the experts present, his threat level seemed to be even greater than the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall.
“Jian Chen, are you willing to give up the Anatta Tower and return with me to the Martial Soul Mountain? That’s the true home of our Martial Soul lineage,” said Hun Zang. He looked at Jian Chen cautiously, seeking his opinion.
“Leave behind what you obtained from the Tower of Radiance, or don’t even think about leaving the Desolate Plane,” said the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall firmly. He left no room for negotiation.
The Grand Exalt’s cultivation method was the greatest legacy within the Radiant Saint Hall. He could not afford to lose it. He would take it back no regardless of the cost.
“Yu Chen, you’re getting bolder and bolder. If I want to take Jian Chen away, do you think you can stop me? Let alone stop me, who knows who’ll emerge as the victor if we really start fighting.” Hun Zan mocked the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall.
“Try it!” The leader of the Radiant Saint Hall’s eyes turned cold as a powerful presence radiated from him. He did not back down at all.
“Senior Hun Zang, you should go back. I obtained the Anatta Tower in a lower world, and then I brought it up to the Saints’ World. I will never just hand it over. Even if it’ll be returned to the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, I’ll return it personally,” Jian Chen replied at this moment. He spoke very indifferently and calmly.
The eyes of all the peak experts gathered there turned cold from that.
Even Hun Zang was surprised. He stared at Jian Chen deeply and only said after quite a pause, “Are you certain that you don’t want to relinquish the Anatta Tower?”
“I will not,” Jian Chen was determined.
“Very well. I respect your choice.” Hun Zang nodded. As he said that, his eyes suddenly became pitch-black; they were like two black holes that could devour all light.
Extremely powerful Martial Soul Force shot out from his eyes, piercing through space towards all the peak experts gathered there as invisible swords.
Martial Soul Force was a wondrous and unique power formed from the combination of a fighter and Radiant Saint Master. It was extremely powerful and specifically targeted the soul. It was invisible, making it extremely difficult to sense. It would catch people off guard.
The peak experts gathered there were vigilant of their surroundings at all times, remaining cautious of everyone there. However, no matter how cautious or vigilant they were, it was a waste of effort before the Martial Soul Force.
They were unable to defend against Martial Soul Force. Even if they discovered it, they could only dodge beforehand. If they could not dodge it, they could only endure it.
Martial Soul Force was invisible and could pierce all objects. Let alone the protective energy around them, but even god artifacts of lower qualities were unable to stop Hun Zang’s powerful Martial Soul Force.
Immediately, all the peak experts nearby were affected. Under the influence of Martial Soul Force, they became temporarily stunned.
They were all very powerful. Their souls were like balls of roaring flames. With Hun Zang’s Martial Soul Force scattered, it was very difficult for him to harm any one of them. However, stunning them for a split second was more than enough.
“Since you don’t want to give up on the Anatta Tower, we’ll take the Anatta Tower back to the Martial Soul Mountain with us. Jian Chen, you’re very right. You obtained the Anatta Tower in the lower world. Since it fell into your possession, it’s your fortune. Why must you give it to someone else?” Hun Zang laughed aloud. He had already arrived beside Jian Chen, wanting to leave with him while everyone was stunned.
When Hun Zang took action, a tremendous, imposing mountain that was seemingly capable of flattening the world appeared silently. It hovered in outer space strangely.
The mountain was not physical. Instead, it was an illusionary shadow. It seemed like a projection.
Six figures sat on the illusionary mountain. They were all expressionless and emotionless, like monks meditating. They gave off presences of varying strength.
Qing Shan happened to be among them.
The illusionary mountain happened to be the Martial Soul Mountain renowned throughout the Saints’ World.
However, it was only a projection of the Martial Soul Mountain.
“Jian Chen, for you, the entire Martial Soul lineage has come. Come with me to the Martial Soul Mountain. As long as we arrive on the Martial Soul Mountain, these people won’t be able to do anything to you,” Hun Zang chuckled. He was fearless, as if he was not worried about offending so many peak experts at all.
However, just when Hun Zang wanted to take Jian Chen away, space suddenly ripped open. and a skinny hand reached out. With the truths of the world, it pressed towards Hun Zang along a trajectory that obeyed the laws.
Hun Zang immediately became extremely stern. At that critical moment, his entire presence suddenly changed, as if it had established some sort of connection with the illusionary mountain in outer space. He also extended his hand, making it collide loudly with the skinny hand that reached out from the spatial crack.
The collision was not as intense as one would have imagined. It all seemed calm. The two of them had purposefully withdrew their powers, or the storm of energy from their clash this time would have been enough to demolish the entire city.
Hun Zang suddenly quivered and retreated uncontrollably.
At this moment, the illusionary mountain beyond the Desolate Plane quivered gently as well. The projection seemed to become even dimmer.
“Our Heaven-splitting clan will be taking Jian Chen. No one else is allowed to take him away!” As an old voice rang out, the spatial crack suddenly expanded, and an old man walked out.
