The space shattered by the path lord collapsed piece by piece, and the area affected grew wider and wider. From afar, it seemed like a huge black hole had appeared, preventing Ruijin, Honglian, and Black Fish from approaching it. They avoided it from afar.
The path lord of carnal desires had vanished from the collapsed space filled with darkness. The collapsed space had blocked their vision.
A while later, the collapsed space slowly began to recover. In the end, it returned to its original state, but the path lord of carnal desires had already vanished.
"I can't believe he managed to escape," Hong Lian said angrily with a furious look on her face.
"The Holy Emperor knows quite a few abilities. It's obviously nothing difficult for the three of us to fend off the Holy Emperor, but it'll still be difficult to kill an expert of that level. However, the Holy Emperor has already been struck by my sword. My sword pierced his chest, so he won't be able to recover in a short amount of time. Although I failed to kill him, I made him pay a certain price, "Ruijin said. His voice was filled with some pity.
"Let's go find Jianchen as soon as possible. He left with the people of the protector clans. Although we're from the same clan, all familial ties and friendships are useless before the Saints' Fruit. I'm worried that he'll be in danger. He's our only hope of returning to our clansmen, so we can't let anything happen to him. At the same time, Black Fish's poison is getting worse and worse. He needs the origin energy of Radiant Saint Force to heal," Honglian said sternly.
Ruijin nodded. He immediately left with Honglian and Black Fish. He constantly used secret techniques to find Jianchen's traces.
After Ruijin, Hei Yu, and Hei Yu's departure, the scattered Holy Emperor experts in the air all sighed and left as well. Many of them were jealous, regretful, and unwilling.
Many of them had been looking forward to the day when they could become an expert at the level of the Holy Emperor, standing at the apex of the pyramid and above the protector clans. Now that they had missed out on the Saints' Fruit, even they found it rather difficult to accept the great ups and downs.
This was because there was not a single Holy Emperor who was not tempted by the Holy Emperor's level of cultivation. Once they reached that level of cultivation, not only would they gain unprecedented strength, they would also gain a lifespan of several thousand years.
The area outside the Death Nest rapidly became much quieter. Most of the Holy Emperor experts had already left. Only a few of them remained, unwilling to leave.
When Jianchen and the great elders of Changyang Prefecture emerged from the Space Gate, they were no longer in the same space. Instead, they had entered an independent miniature world. The energy of the world was extremely abundant there, and the scenery was beautiful. It was an extremely beautiful miniature world.
Jianchen glanced around and a gleam of light flashed through his eyes. He had been here before, so he could tell with a single glance that this was where the protector clans of Changyang Prefecture resided. Changyang Qing Yun directly returned to the protector clan with Jianchen through the Space Gate.
The space where the protector clans resided was isolated from the outside world. Under normal circumstances, the World Gate would be tightly shut and completely cut off from the outside world. They could only leave through special methods. Jianchen did not feel any sense of security at all when he was in a place like this. Instead, he felt a great sense of danger. The sense of danger was even more intense than when he was surrounded by the vengeful spirits of the Holy Emperor.
Jianchen's heart sank, but he did not show it on the surface. He discreetly observed the great elders beside him and discovered that they were all filled with joy and excitement from the bottom of their hearts. Jianchen could even see passion and eagerness in Changyang Qing Yun's eyes. He was extremely excited.
At this moment, Changyang Qing Yun also looked at Jianchen. Just when he wanted to say something, Jianchen beat him to it, "Great elders, I'm very heavily injured. I need to find a place to heal immediately, or there might be repercussions." Jianchen was covered in blood right now. He seemed like a bloody person. His body was covered in vicious wounds, so deep that his bones could be seen. It was a horrible sight. If it were not for his tough Chaotic Body, he probably would have collapsed long ago.
"Xiangtian, your wounds are just too heavy. Come with us to the ancestral hall to heal first. There are medicines stored there that can help you recover quickly," Changyang Zu Yunkong said in concern.
"Thank you for your concern, great grandfather, but I have medicines on me, so I can deal with them myself." Jianchen's face changed when he reached there. He immediately vomited a mouthful of blood and weakly said, "My wounds are rapidly worsening. I can't delay any longer. I need to find a place to heal immediately." With that, Jianchen flew toward a mountain nearby while trembling. He used his Emperor Armament to carve out a hole and disappeared inside.
Changyang Qing Yun stared at Jianchen's back deeply. The light in his eyes flickered as he became uneasy. However, he recovered very soon and laughed aloud, "I never thought that the Saints' Fruit would end up in our Changyang Prefecture's hands. This is just far too significant to our Changyang Prefecture. Before long, a Holy Emperor will appear in our Changyang Prefecture."
"Yeah. Once Xiangtian consumes the Saints' Fruit, he'll definitely be able to successfully break through to the level of Holy Emperor with his talent," Changyang Zu Yunkong gently smiled. Changyang Zu Yunxiao faintly smiled. Indescribable pride filled his face as he glanced at Changyang Qing Yun from the corner of his eyes.
Changyang Qing Yun's face stiffened when he heard that, but it only lasted for a split second. He recovered in the blink of an eye and smiled, "That's right. Xiangtian's talent is unprecedented, reaching such accomplishments in less than a century. I believe Xiangtian will break through to the level of Holy Emperor very soon and become a supreme expert that can deter the world. Alright, let's stop here. We've all exhausted ourselves in the Death's Nest, so let's hurry up and recover. Right now, we need to maintain our peak condition and deal with any sudden attacks from other experts. After all, the temptation of the Saints' Fruit is just far too great. We need to be on guard at all times. "
The great elders of Changyang Prefecture all left at the same time. They all went to the ancestral hall in the center.
Jianchen stood in the cave with a rather sunken face. Under the envelopment of his soul, the conversations and expressions of the great elders of Changyang Prefecture could not escape his eyes. He could clearly see their reactions.
"This really isn't a safe place. Changyang Qing Yun's desire for the Saints' Fruit is just too great. As for the other great elders, they haven't shown it yet, but who knows what they're thinking," Jian Chen sighed. At that moment, he suddenly felt that the people of Changyang Prefecture could not be trusted, including Changyang Zu Xiao and Changyang Zu Yunxiao.
