Chapter 3458: The First Battle in the Immortals’ World
The three Immortal Emperors came to a halt. They stared at Jian Chen who had emerged from the divine hall. Cold light flashed through their eyes.
Given the situation, it was as clear as day that he had obtained everything in the divine hall already.
“Sir, who are you? State your name!” the Immortal Emperor of White Clouds said coldly. He was emotionless. The tremendous pressure of an Immortal Emperor suddenly erupted, crushing down on Jian Chen mercilessly.
The Luofu Immortal Emperor and Yuqing Immortal Emperor said nothing, but they also unleashed their pressure as Immortal Emperors.
Immediately, the pressures of three Immortal Emperors overlapped, forming a terrifying force that could shake up the world. It even produced ripples in space as if it was about to collapse.
At that moment, the entire Starfall mountains shook. The walls inside the mausoleum began to crack like it was going to collapse.
Before such tremendous pressure, even Immortal Monarchs would struggle to withstand it, but Jian Chen was unfazed, seemingly completely unaffected.
“An Immortal Emperor!” The three Immortal Emperors noticed how Jian Chen had responded, which immediately made them frown.
They could not see through Jian Chen’s strength, but given how unfazed he was by their pressure, he was an Immortal Emperor at the very least.
“Did the three of you kill the owner of this place?” Jian Chen scanned past the three Immortal Emperors and said icily.
“That’s right, he was indeed slain by us, but he deserved all of this. He deserved death,” said the Luofu Immortal Emperor.
“He deserved death? What heinous crimes has the owner of this place committed? Or is he a vile being just too wicked to be pardoned?” Jian Chen gradually sneered.
“In the past, he snuck into the core region of our three sects, not only stealing the most important legacies, but also murdering many experts of our three organisations. We had a blood feud with him, which was why he deserved to die,” the Immortal Emperor of White Clouds said coldly.
“That’s right. That’s exactly what he did. And that’s only part of what he did. He stole all of our heavenly resources as well,” added the Luofu Immortal Emperor.
The Yuqing Immortal Emperor stared at Jian Chen with squinting eyes and said slowly, “Fellow, we know you’re also an Immortal Emperor. Since you’ve entered the divine hall, then you must have obtained the legacies and resources that we lost back then. Please return them to us, and we’ll forget that anything happened today. Otherwise…”
“Otherwise what?” Jian Chen glanced at the Yuqing Immortal Emperor.
“Otherwise, you might not be able to leave here alive.” The Yuqing Immortal Emperor’s tone immediately became frigid.
Jian Chen began to laugh out of anger. “I only found some legacies from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens inside the divine hall. There was nothing else apart from that. Looks like the legacies your organisations lost all belonged to the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Don’t tell me you’re all from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens?”
“The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens? I don’t know what you’re saying. Fellow, let me ask one last time. Are you going to hand them over or not?” The Yuqing Immortal Emperor’s eyes shone with killing intent.
“Hahahaha, if you want the legacies of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, it’ll depend on whether you have the capability or not.” Jian Chen laughed aloud. He wielded his finger like a sword and suddenly thrust it towards the heads of the three Immortal Emperors. The power of the Laws of the Sword immediately descended in the surroundings, condensing into three swords of laws that slashed down towards them.
“Since you’re asking to die, we can only give you what you want,” the Luofu Immortal Emperor yelled out. The barrier from a formation immediately appeared over their heads, blocking Jian Chen three attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The three strands of sword Qi struck the barrier with terrifying power, erupting with a startling rumble. The barrier shook violently from the attacks. The entire formation that enveloped the mausoleum, connected to the barrier, was drastically impacted as well, shaking violently.
But in the next moment, blinding light erupted above the Starfall mountains. Terrifying energy shockwaves shook the surroundings. All of the energy from the immortals in the surroundings poured into the formations, maintaining them.
The Luofu Immortal Emperor, the Yuqing Immortal Emperor, and the Immortal Emperor of White Clouds had already taken action in the formations. They were like the crucial points as they resided inside, allowing them to control the formations’ power freely.
At this moment, the three of them engaged Jian Chen in an intense battle using the power of the formations.
“Sir, if you don’t have them over, you won’t be able to escape death today even if you’re a late Immortal Emperor,” the Luofu Immortal Emperor roared furiously. He was stern, erupting with the tremendous power of a Fifth Heavenly layer Immortal Emperor, swinging a god artifact sword at Jian Chen.
When he slashed out, the attack merged with the power of the formation, mobilising the entire formation to envelop Jian Chen.
“You’ve killed a great elder of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, yet you still act with such arrogance. There is no need for the Immortal Sect of Luofu, the Immortal Sect of Yuqing, or the Immortal Sect of White Clouds to exist any more.” Jian Chen swung his hand and a colossal strand of sword Qi immediately shot out, clashing with the Luofu Immortal Emperor’s sword. The shattered sword Qi danced through the air, peppering the ground with bottomless holes.
Shortly afterwards, Jian Chen appeared in front of the Luofu Immortal Emperor like he had teleported over. Forming a fist, he struck out like lightning, striking at the Luofu Immortal Emperor’s forehead.
The Luofu Immortal Emperor wore armour. He immediately controlled the power of the formation to create a protective barrier around him. Jian Chen’s fist slammed into the barrier, and the Laws of the Sword and the Laws of Space erupted at the same time, immediately cracking the shield.
“We’re protected by the formation. Even with your substantial strength, there’s nothing you can do to us.” The Luofu Immortal Emperor retreated rapidly and laughed aloud.
“Really?” Jian Chen stared at the Luofu Immortal Emperor like he was looking at a dead man. “Your formations are indeed quite impressive, but trying to ensure your safety with just them is nowhere near enough.” Jian Chen directly swept his finger through the air as he said that.
With that, half of his arm seemed to merge with the space, completely bypassing the formations.
The Shadowless Lifetaking Strike!
The Luofu Immortal Emperor immediately became wary, but before he could even understand what had happened, a heart-wrenching pain filled his body.
A strand of powerful sword Qi breached his protection from the formation, as well as his armour, directly appearing inside his body and dealing a lethal strike.
“Argh!” the Luofu Immortal Emperor howled out. The medium quality god artifact armour on him was split in half. The sharp sword intent remaining in his body immediately shattered his organs, leaving him heavily injured.
The Luofu Immortal Emperor’s lower half directly fell out of the air, while his remaining upper half also suffered extremely heavy injuries, spewing blood uncontrollably.
