Jianchen rushed over from afar. His presence surged, causing the surroundings to shake. His eyes were cold and flickered with cold killing intent.
"It's senior Yang Yutian. Fantastic, senior Yang Yutian has finally returned." Zhou Chuyun and Liu Jun were overjoyed as they hid in the distance. They were like people who had grasped at straws in despair, seeing the light of hope.
The divine water of the world had completely become a battle between experts of the Holy Emperor. The two of them were unable to interfere at all. They did not even have the right to speak. They could only watch as so many Holy Emperor experts fought over the divine water as if it was already theirs. This made them feel extremely frustrated and vexed. Now that Yang Yutian had returned, the two of them were immediately filled with energy.
"Who is this person? What a powerful presence!"
"This person sure is arrogant. Even the tyrant of the western sea, Nicholas, has died. Is he stronger than Nicholas?"
Many people looked at Jianchen as he flew over from afar. A few Holy Emperor experts even sneered. They did not believe that Jianchen had the ability to fend off the four mysterious old men with metal swords. They believed that he was just throwing his life away.
The four old men maintained the same posture with their swords. They seemed to be standing casually, but they seemed to be hiding something. They could activate the sword formation at any time. At that moment, they all looked at Jianchen as they frowned and became stern.
"It's him. He's actually returned at a time like this," said one of the old men. The four of them knew extremely well just how powerful Jianchen was. He was bold enough to cross the Crouching Dragon Range all by himself and kill the strongest expert at the peak. An expert like that was not someone they could deal with.
Although the sword formation they used together was very powerful, it was impossible for them to defeat someone who was far more powerful than them.
"I can sense a strong threat from that person. He's definitely not someone we can defeat. Our goal here is not to find the divine water of the world. There's no need for us to offend such a powerful expert for something that's useless to us," an old man said telepathically. His eyes were filled with dread.
After killing Nicholas, the four old men had become the most powerful group present. Now that the divine water of the world had fallen into their hands, it obviously attracted the attention of many people in the surroundings. Many people sneered at Jianchen as if they were watching a good show. They seemed to have already seen Jianchen die to the four swords.
After all, even Nicholas, who could fight against a Fifth Heavenly Layer expert like the Holy Emperor, had died. They had no doubt that the four old men would be able to contend against a Sixth Heavenly Layer expert if they used their powerful sword formation again.
Jianchen rapidly approached from afar. He quickly glanced around before finally locking onto the four old men who held the divine water. He strode over and directly approached the four old men. His presence was oppressive, and with each step, his presence would rapidly strengthen.
"Senior Yang Yutian, you've finally returned. If you didn't come back soon, the divine water of the world would have been taken away by them." Zhou Chuyun and Liu Jun ran over from afar. They followed behind Jianchen like followers. They were in high spirits.
Jianchen coldly stared at the four old men and coldly said, "I spent so much effort to draw away the two beasts at the peak of the 16th Star so that the divine water would not end up in their hands. Look at you, you've actually reaped the benefits."
One of the Holy Emperor experts immediately sneered when he heard Jianchen's words. He joked, "Kid, you sure know how to joke around. You actually drew away two beasts at the peak of the 16th Star. Do you have the ability to do that?"
Jianchen's presence was powerful, but without the Emperor Armament, he was only at the Third Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor with his Chaotic Body. Without any concealment, many of the Holy Emperor experts obviously saw Jianchen clearly, so they obviously did not treat him with any importance. Only the four old men were exceptions. They were not misled by Jianchen's strength.
"He's still a step away from the peak of the 15th Star. He's not even as strong as me. Kid, let me see what you're capable of to draw away two beasts at the peak of the 16th Star." A young man who seemed to be in his thirties sneered. He was very burly, like a huge bear. He stood over four meters tall and his eyes were filled with disdain. A wide, double-edged axe appeared in his hand. He swung it through the air and the axe immediately elongated, becoming a hundred meters long in a single instance. He swung it toward Jianchen's head with an unstoppable force.
"You're only at the Fourth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor, yet you still dare to be so arrogant. You're asking for death, "Jianchen coldly said. The Emperor Armament immediately appeared in his hand and he swung it out, using the four-meter-long sword to receive the axe.
Two weapons of completely disproportionate size collide in midair
However, with a boom, the huge axe was actually knocked away by a single strike. It broke free from the young man's grasp and flew far away. The supreme force passed through the axe and actually caused the young man's arms to become numb. He staggered backwards.
Everyone in the surroundings was so shocked that they could not close their mouths when they saw this. It was as if they had seen something unbelievable. The burly young man was a peak 15th Star expert, yet he could not even withstand a single blow.
The young man had not held back in his attack earlier. Regular Holy Emperors at the Third Heavenly Layer would struggle to receive it, so Jianchen did not plan on letting him go. He coldly stared at the young man and took a step forward. He crossed a hundred meters in the air and appeared before the young man as if he had teleported. The Emperor Armament stabbed toward the young man's head.
The young man was shocked. Jianchen's attack was just too fast, making it impossible for him to dodge. He immediately bellowed out and a shield completely condensed from energy appeared in front of him.
The shield immediately shattered like tofu when it collided with the Emperor Armament. The Emperor Armament continued forward like a hot knife through butter. In the end, the Emperor Armament stabbed into the young man's head under his horrified gaze, wiping him out on the spot.
A peak Holy Emperor at the Fourth Heavenly Layer had actually been slain in a single clash. Without a doubt, the young man was the Holy Emperor who had died the quickest.
Jianchen pulled out the Emperor Armament like nothing had happened. Blood dripped from the tip of the sword as he coldly glanced around. He said emotionlessly, "Who else wants to challenge me? Feel free to do so."
The expressions of all the spectating Holy Emperor immediately changed when they heard that. They staggered back a few steps. At that moment, their gazes toward Jianchen had finally changed. They were filled with fear while the Saint Rulers were filled with deep fear. They did not dare to make eye contact with Jianchen.
The battle between the Hundred-footed clan and the Huangdao clan came to a halt because of what had happened. They all stared at Jianchen in fear as deep dread filled their eyes.
Zhou Chuyun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and pointed at the Holy Emperor as he complained. He described everything that had happened before without missing a single detail.
"No, no, no. That's definitely not the case. Senior, it was just a misunderstanding. We didn't touch your people either, so I hope you can understand," the skinny old man hurriedly explained. The skinny old man hurriedly explained. He refused to admit to what he had just said. The other Saint Kings hurriedly explained as well, absolving themselves of their crimes. After personally witnessing Jian Chen's strength, they no longer dared to act arrogantly.
"How did the two of you get your wounds?" Jianchen turned around and asked.
"I- from the shockwaves of the battle." Zhou Chuyun and Liu Jun's faces became rather red. They felt ashamed.
Jianchen ignored them. Instead, he looked at the four old men as killing intent flashed through his eyes.
"The four of us took this divine water of the world from the conqueror of the western sea, Nicholas. If it weren't for the four of us stopping him, it probably would have entered his stomach already," said the old man who held the divine water of the world. Afterwards, he tossed the jade bottle to Jianchen without any reluctance.
Jianchen caught the divine water of the world and glanced at the metal swords in the four old men's hands. An extremely well-hidden sliver of nostalgia appeared in his eyes, but it vanished very quickly. Afterwards, he opened the jade bottle and checked it. He discovered that the divine water of the world had not decreased at all.
Jianchen stowed the divine water of the world away before saying to Zhou Chuyun, "Call Zhou Lin and the others over. Let's leave this place."
Zhou Chuyun immediately went to find Zhou Lin and the others. They were very smart. Seeing that the situation was off, they had already fled twenty kilometers away, avoiding the shockwaves of the battle. They all returned with Zhou Chuyun unscathed.
During this time, Liu Jun used this opportunity to examine the corpses of the feral beasts. He really did find a few thunderstones. He even removed the Space Rings of the dead Holy Emperor experts before handing them to Jianchen politely.
The surrounding Holy Emperor experts watched as the Space Rings of the experts of the same level fell into Liu Jun's hands. Although they were tempted, none of them dared to do anything.
Jianchen and the people from the Blue Sky Adventurers left, leaving behind a large group of people who had failed to obtain the divine water of the world.
The four old men stared at Jianchen's back deeply. Only when Jianchen had completely vanished from their sight did they look at one another. As if they could read each other's minds, they all made their way in the direction that Jianchen had left in.
Afterward, the Holy Emperor experts gathered there all left. All of them were filled with pity as they watched the divine water of the world being taken away.
"Pay with your life for Gus!" Suddenly, the Holy Emperor of the Huangdao clan bellowed out. He quickly charged toward the heavily injured grand elder of the Hundred-footed clan who had lost an arm. However, he was stopped by another Holy Emperor of the Hundred-footed clan. The battle between the two sides began once again.
Lan Mo did not participate in the battle between the two clans. Instead, he had retreated far away long ago. His face was pale as his legs trembled.
"H- h- he's actually a 16th Star expert. I- I've actually provoked a 16th Star expert." Lan Mo felt a lingering fear inside as cold sweat covered his forehead. Only now did he understand just what kind of existence he had provoked.
A 16th Star expert was a supreme expert who could easily wipe out the entire Lanshan clan.
"Fortunately, that supreme expert didn't make a fuss over it with me." Lan Mo felt lucky inside when he thought up to there.
"Young master Lan Mo, I seem to have forgotten about you." At this moment, a cold voice rang out from afar. Lan Mo trembled violently when he heard the familiar voice that filled him with fear. He looked over in fear.
Jianchen, Zhou Chuyun, and the others had actually returned, walking straight toward him.
"S- senior …" At this moment, Lan Mo no longer dared to act tough. His arrogant personality in Divine City had completely vanished. He wanted to apologise, but he could not help but shiver inside when he saw Jianchen's sharp and cold gaze. He did not even dare to say anything.
