The Profound Sword Qi was just too fast. It was so fast that even he was unable to react in time. All he could do was watch as the finger-sized Profound Sword Qi approached his forehead at an unbelievable speed.
Spurt!
The Profound Sword Qi pierced through Gong Zheng's layers of protective light like a hot knife through butter. It stabbed into his forehead and struck his soul.
Immediately, a tearing pain appeared in Gong Zheng's soul, causing him to cry out miserably uncontrollably. He even struggled to maintain the ability to hover in the air. He struggled as he fell straight down from the sky, smashing into the ground heavily.
Gong Zheng was the supreme Divine King below the Divine King. Not only was his strength great, but his soul was as well. He did not die after taking on Jianchen's Profound Sword Qi. He was still alive.
However, his soul was already heavily injured. It would be difficult for him to recover in a short amount of time, so he no longer had the ability to battle.
Jianchen originally wanted to pursue and kill Gong Zheng in a single stroke because Gong Zheng was unable to fight back at all in his current state. Let alone the Divine King, even an Overgod could kill him.
However, Jianchen was forced to give up on killing Gong Zheng when he saw the three powerful presences rapidly approaching him in the distance. Even though killing Gong Zheng would only take a split second, that split second was the difference between life and death to him.
Cang Ying had personally witnessed Gong Zheng's fate from nearby. His face paled slightly as well. His gaze towards Jian Chen was filled with extremely deep fear.
However, in the next moment, Cang Ying's eyes suddenly narrowed as fear filled his face. This was because he saw a second strand of Profound Sword Qi above Jianchen's head. By the time Jianchen looked over, the second strand of Profound Sword Qi had already been aimed at him.
Gong Zheng's fate was still fresh in Cang Ying's mind. His fear for the Profound Sword Qi had basically reached a level of fear or even terror. Seeing how Jianchen was about to shoot the second strand of Profound Sword Qi at him, he did not hesitate at all. He basically shot off into the distance instinctively. Azure light flickered on his body as he used his speed, arriving ten thousand kilometers away in a single instance. He stared at Jianchen from ten thousand kilometers away. He was filled with fear and caution, ready to flee at any time.
Jianchen originally wanted to directly shoot out the second strand of Profound Sword Qi to heavily injure Cang Ying, but when he saw that Cang Ying had already retreated and no longer obstructing him, he was naturally happy to see this. He immediately stowed the second strand of Profound Sword Qi away and left with Caia.
Originally, he did not want to use the Profound Sword Qi as much as possible. This was because every time he used a strand of Profound Sword Qi, it would deplete a large amount of the power of his soul, which would indirectly affect his battle prowess. Cang Ying and mister Shu were not the only Divine King that were their opponents. There were also the many people gathered here who were after the treasures.
As a result, he needed to preserve some strength to deal with the Divine King in the surroundings as he dealt with Cang Ying and mister Shu.
However, Jianchen felt a great sense of danger from the gathering of several Divine King. He had no choice but to use the Profound Sword Qi.
Even though he had only shot out a strand of Profound Sword Qi, it had depleted almost a third of the power of Jianchen's soul. He immediately began to feel faint.
However, the depletion of a single strand of Profound Sword Qi was not enough to affect Jianchen too much. Using this short amount of time, Jianchen and Caia quickly flew off into the distance.
At the same time, the three powerful experts had arrived. Their bodies were enveloped by a layer of dense light of laws, making their figures indistinctly discernible. It was impossible to see them clearly in the haze. It was only possible to tell from their blurry figures that they were two women and one man.
As soon as they arrived, a terrifying pressure permeated the surroundings, blanketing the surroundings. Many of the weaker Divine King felt like they were suffocating, as if a boulder was pressing down on their chests, making it difficult for them to breathe.
The three of them were no weaker than Cang Ying and Gong Zheng. They were also Divine Kings that were below the Divine King. They were extremely powerful.
As soon as the three supreme Godkings arrived, they all looked at Gong Zheng, who constantly struggled on the ground as he clutched his head and howled out in pain. Their faces all changed when they saw this.
"Gong Zheng's soul is heavily injured. I can sense that at least half of it has dispersed. It's impossible for him to recover in a short amount of time," said one of the three. Among the three people, a woman spoke. Her voice was as beautiful as the heavens, and it made people want to see her true appearance.
"Gong Zheng also came down from the tenth floor. Even if he got here before us, he wouldn't be much faster than us. Just who is this person that can heavily injure Gong Zheng in such a short amount of time?" The second woman said. Her voice was as pleasant as music, and it was stern.
"The person who injured Gong Zheng is called Jianchen." At this moment, Cang Ying returned from afar. His face was stern as he said, "Jianchen knows an extremely powerful secret technique. He can send out a strand of sword Qi that's only the size of a finger. The sword Qi is extremely powerful and extremely fast. It specializes in attacking the soul, making it impossible to defend against. Gong Zheng was injured by Jianchen's secret technique."
Afterwards, Cang Ying told the three of them some simple information, including the fact that Xiao Man, who was protected by the world, was by Jianchen's side. He did not hide anything at all.
After witnessing the power of the Profound Sword Qi, Cang Ying truly understood Jianchen's strength. He knew that he could not deal with Jianchen alone. He could only work with the other Divine Kings.
"That Jianchen's secret technique really is powerful to be able to injure Gong Zheng to such a state in a single exchange. However, the more powerful the secret technique, the greater the price to use it. As a result, I'm certain that he can only use this secret technique a few times. As long as we're careful, it's not like we can't avoid it, "said the man among the three Divine Kings. His voice was firm and forceful.
"No matter how powerful that Jianchen is, we need to stop him and take back the girl. However, Jianchen isn't that easy to deal with. Why don't we work together? " Suggested the woman who spoke first. She looked at the two people who had come with her and Cang Ying.
"Sure. Once we take back the girl, the four of us will share her secrets," said the man.
Very soon, the four of them came to an agreement. They worked together and pursued in the direction that Jianchen had fled in.
During this time, people constantly joined in. Not only were there many regular Godkings, but even three supreme Godkings from the Godkings' Throne had hurried over as well.
