Terrifying energy erupted in the plaza of the Bright Moon Divine Hall. The terrifying energy from all the Holy Emperor's experts interweaved together, immediately forming an extremely powerful shockwave that expanded in all directions. It knocked all the Saint Rulers and those below Saint Ruler far away. The Heaven Saint Masters and Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters in particular all spat out blood as they were blown away. They were already heavily injured, while the weaker Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters were even more heavily injured.
Jianchen, Black Fish, Honglian, Kalalo, Kaza Jianxiong, and the great elder from the Changyang Prefecture gathered together. They all knew about the relationship between You Yue and Jianchen, so they worked together to create a barrier of energy around You Yue and Kara Livi, preventing them from being injured at all.
"This should be something Fairy Haoyue left behind to deal with the Holy Emperor. Let's get them away from us first so we don't have to worry about them. Otherwise, if we encounter true danger, it'll be very difficult for us to take care of them," the great elder from the Changyang Prefecture said with a heavy voice.
"Brother Jianchen, what do you think?" Kalalo looked at Jianchen.
"That's fine too." Jianchen hesitated slightly before directly striking the barrier of energy around You Yue and Kara Livi, knocking them far away.
"The killing intent here is rapidly increasing. If this continues, even the Holy Emperor will struggle to stop it at Great Perfection …"
"There's something strange about this murderous aura. It's not just pure murderous aura. It seems to be mixed with something else. Once this murderous aura enters the body, it will destroy our bodies like maggots in the bones …"
"Let's move faster and pass through this region …"
Everyone called out. Afterward, they all radiated with Saint Force to resist the killing intent as they made their way into the depths of the divine hall. However, the deeper they went, the heavier the killing intent became. A few people at the First Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor began to show signs of being unable to stop it.
Jianchen did not release energy from his body like the others and create a barrier around him to block the killing intent. Instead, he expanded his Chaotic Force to his entire body, completely using the advantage of the Chaotic Body. It became even easier to block the killing intent. The strange killing intent in the divine hall was unable to penetrate his body at all.
Jianchen glanced past everyone as doubt filled his face. Even the Holy Emperor would struggle to resist the killing intent, let alone the Saint Rulers. If Saint Rulers set foot in this region, they would not be able to last for long before the killing intent would invade their bodies and kill them. They would not be able to pass through at all. He had no idea why Fairy Haoyue had left such a warning on the stone tablet.
"Does Fairy Haoyue not want the divine hall she has worked so hard on to fall into the hands of others, which is why she has cast down killing formations in the divine hall to stop the Holy Emperor and the Holy Emperor from entering? The people below the Holy Emperor can't enter the divine hall safely, but they're just far too weak, unable to catch Fairy Haoyue's attention, which is why she didn't mention it in detail on the stone tablet." Jianchen analyzed inside. He had already begun to suspect that everyone had misunderstood the stone tablet. Otherwise, if the people below the Holy Emperor were not restricted by the killing intent of the Holy Emperor, why would he be attacked by such powerful killing intent? After all, he was still a Seventh Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler. His battle prowess had only reached the level of the Holy Emperor.
At this moment, a barrier silently appeared. It was extremely large and was no longer white. Instead, it was the color of moonlight condensed from Moonlight Force. It filled the entire divine hall, enveloping Jianchen's group, including the Saint Rulers and Heaven Saint Masters behind them.
Afterward, Moonlight Force suddenly surged within the barrier. It condensed into dense strands of sword Qi in the air before raining down like rain. They shot toward everyone in the hall with unbelievable speed, including the Saint Rulers, Heaven Saint Masters, and Class 6 Radiant Saint Masters.
You Yue, Kara Livi, and all the other Heaven Saint Masters and Saint Rulers revealed different expressions when they saw this. Despair filled many of their eyes. This was an ability cast down by a Holy Emperor, so its power was obvious. It was not something they could block.
"Oh no!" Jianchen's face changed drastically. He used the Illusory Flash and charged toward You Yue as quickly as he could. At the same time, the saint artifact shot out from between his eyebrows, turning into a huge, golden tower in the blink of an eye. It shot toward You Yue as a golden streak of light. He wanted to get close to You Yue and suck her into the artifact space.
The saint artifact needed a certain distance to suck someone into the artifact space, but the sword Qi condensed from Moonlight Force was just too fast. It far surpassed the speed of Jianchen and the saint artifact. Before Jianchen and the saint artifact could even approach You Yue, countless strands of Moonlight Sword Qi struck You Yue.
"Yue 'er!" Jianchen cried out as his eyes became bloodshot. He was filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he would have sucked You Yue into the artifact space.
At the same time, Jianchen's body shook violently. He had been struck by over a dozen strands of Moonlight Sword Qi at the same time. However, they were only as powerful as the Holy Emperor's First Heavenly Layer, so they were unable to break through the defences of Jianchen's Chaotic Body. As soon as they collided with Jianchen, they shattered like eggs against a rock. They turned back into Moonlight Force and drifted through the barrier. They did not disperse.
Jianchen arrived beside You Yue as well. Just when he wanted to control the saint artifact to suck You Yue into the artifact space, he suddenly became stunned. He stared at You Yue in a daze as disbelief filled his eyes.
You Yue's beautiful eyes were filled with panic as she stood there. However, she was completely unscathed. She didn't suffer any injuries at all.
"Yue 'er, you're not injured?" Jianchen asked in surprise. He had personally experienced the power of the Moonlight Sword Qi. Each strand of Moonlight Sword Qi possessed the power of the Holy Emperor's First Heavenly Layer. Attacks like that were extremely fatal to someone of You Yue's strength.
Kara Livi also stood there in a fright. She could not help but giggle when she saw how Jianchen actually cared about You Yue so much. She patted her chest and said, "Yang Yutian, I never thought you would care about your fiancée so much. Don't worry, we're fine."
You Yue's heart immediately warmed up when she saw Jianchen's expression. She smiled sweetly and said, "Jianchen, don't worry. I'm fine. The sword Qi from before didn't seem to harm us. Have you forgotten the warning on the tablet? As long as it's someone below the Holy Emperor, they won't be attacked. "
Jianchen glanced around and discovered that all the people below the Holy Emperor were standing there unscathed. Aside from a few people who had been injured by the bursts of energy from the Holy Emperor earlier, no one else was injured.
Jianchen immediately understood when he saw this. The warning on the tablet was true. The formations of the divine hall would not attack anyone below the Holy Emperor. However, he was not a Saint Ruler, but his strength was on par with the Holy Emperor's, which was why he was listed as a Holy Emperor.
"Jianchen, be careful. The sword Qi is condensing again," You Yue warned.
Jianchen ignored the sword Qi condensing in the air. He turned into a thirty-meter-tall saint artifact and hovered above his head. Afterward, he said to You Yue and Kara Livi, "Do you two want to hide in the artifact space?"
"Jianchen, we won't be harmed here anyway, so why don't you just let us stay outside? I've never seen something so grand before," You Yue tactfully declined Jianchen's suggestion.
Jianchen hesitated slightly before agreeing to You Yue's suggestion in the end. He did not force You Yue into the artifact space, but he did hand the artifact to You Yue. He had already secretly told the Artifact Spirit that it would immediately send You Yue and Kara Livi into the artifact space as soon as there was any danger.
The sword Qi condensed from Moonlight Force once again and shot toward everyone. All the Holy Emperor experts used their various abilities to block the sword Qi.
Jianchen could block attacks from the Holy Emperor at the Third Heavenly Layer due to his Chaotic Body. Unless the attacks were as powerful as the Holy Emperor at the Fourth Heavenly Layer, they would not be able to break through his Chaotic Body at all. This was because he could block the attacks the easiest out of everyone.
However, Jian Chen could clearly sense that the attacks this time were much more powerful than before when he was struck by the dense cluster of Moonlight Sword Qi.
"Argh!" Suddenly, a miserable cry rang out. A Holy Emperor at the First Heavenly Layer had been struck by the Moonlight Sword Qi, causing him to wail out in pain. Afterwards, a tremendous amount of energy began to drift out of his body, dispersing into the divine hall in the end.
"Oh no, this damned Moonlight Force is devouring my power," the person cried out in fear as he became flustered.
