"We've spent so much effort to set up the Heaven-stealing Formation and capture Jianchen after much difficulty. We only needed to bring the cauldron out of the Poseidon Palace, and the seniors waiting outside would naturally take care of him. In the end … in the end, something like this happened. What are you still standing around for? We can't let him get away. Chase after him … "
"What's the point of chasing after him? Although Jianchen is only an early Divine King, his battle prowess is at the level of a Divine King. Even if the three of us work together, we won't be able to defeat him. We might even lose our lives …"
"Cut the crap, you two. Run! The group of Divine King's are coming our way. Not only have we failed to capture Jianchen, but we've even become the culprits who helped Jianchen escape their encirclement. Those people will never let us go in their fury …"
The three old men's expressions were extremely ugly. They glanced at the group of Divine King's who were hundreds of thousands of kilometres away and fled in another direction with reluctance on their faces.
Up ahead, Jianchen's sword light surged into the sky. He was enveloped by a layer of sword qi as he turned into lightning and fled quickly.
Behind him, several hundred Divine King's pursued relentlessly. They all unleashed secret techniques and turned into shooting stars, traveling as quickly as they could. They travelled thousands of kilometres in an instant.
Although there were hundreds of thousands of kilometres between them, a distance that was unreachable for mortals, it only took the supreme Divine King's several dozen breaths to travel at full speed before them.
Among these people, Shui Yunlan, Olidona, and Rui Di and Zhi Ye from the Sect of Dragons and Phoenixes were also part of the pursuing group.
However, the four of them had clearly gathered together now.
Ming Dong led the five divine generals and was in the group as well.
At this moment, Ming Dong roared out furiously. A layer of red flames burned on him, causing his speed to skyrocket. He actually surpassed everyone and charged to the very front.
At the same time, Ming Dong's life force was withering away. His long black hair was turning silver-white at a visible rate.
It was obvious that he had paid a huge price for that instantaneous burst of terrifying speed.
"Jianchen, come into my divine palace. My divine palace is hidden in my primordial spirit. I'd like to see if these people dare to extract my primordial spirit." Ming Dong called out. A small, exquisite divine hall had already appeared in his hand. It was extremely exquisite.
"Quick, stop him! We can't let Jianchen enter the temple!" The Divine King shouted from behind.
If they didn't know Ming Dong's identity, they naturally wouldn't have cared that Ming Dong had taken Jianchen into the temple. They would have killed both of them.
However, all of them now knew that Jianchen was connected to the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng and had the protection of the five divine generals. His status was extraordinary. If Ming Dong really took Jianchen into his divine palace and hid it in his primordial spirit, they really wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
Up ahead, Jianchen also sensed Ming Dong's life force rapidly fading away. His heart sank slightly as well. The senses of his soul that belonged to the Divine King expanded, covering several hundred thousand kilometres in a single instance. It enveloped Ming Dong, Shui Yunlan, and Olidona. A voice that only the three of them could hear rang out silently.
Jianchen's voice surprised Ming Dong. He looked at Jianchen in doubt. The red flames on him vanished rapidly, and he slowed down as well.
At the same time, Shui Yunlan and Olidona's eyes narrowed as well. They became surprised and doubtful.
"Let's not follow them. Jianchen has his own plans." Olidona stopped Rui Di and Zhi Ye.
"He has a plan? That's several hundred supreme Divine Kings we're talking about. Even Zhu Wen, who ranks second, is among them. What kind of plan can he have? "Rui Di and Zhi Ye were confused.
"Hei Ya, do you see them? Remember them for me." Up ahead, Jianchen stopped temporarily as well. He called out Hei Ya and pointed in Ming Dong and Olidona's direction from afar.
"I remember, I remember. Heavens, they're all supreme Divine Kings …" As soon as Hei Ya appeared, his face paled in fright as his legs trembled.
Several hundred supreme Divine Kings were squeezed together. The impact of such a grand sight on his mind was just too great. It made him shiver in fright.
Jianchen stowed Hei Ya away in an ordinary divine hall again before charging to the sixth floor without even looking back.
Afterwards, Jianchen did not stop. He led the several hundred supreme Divine Kings behind him, climbing upwards in a straight line. He passed through the sixth floor, the seventh floor, and directly arrived in the world of volcanoes on the eighth floor.
Basically as soon as Jianchen set foot on the eighth floor, several supreme Divine Kings followed closely behind him. To no surprise, Zhu Wen, Sheng Man, and the expert who controlled the Laws of Death were among them.
Although the remaining people did not know each other's identities, they were extremely powerful as well. Although they were not as powerful as Zhu Wen and Sheng Man, who ranked in the top ten, they were not that weak.
They were the fastest group of people, basically following right behind Jianchen. The remaining Divine Kings were still behind, hurrying over.
"Jianchen, you have nowhere to run, and you can't protect the girl either. You better hand her over. I won't make things difficult for you for the sake of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng and the God clan," Zhu Wen said sternly.
"That's right. We don't want to offend either the God clan or the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. It's best if you hand over the girl. Don't make things difficult for me," said the old man with the Laws of Death.
The remaining Divine Kings all looked at Jianchen with mixed feelings. A mere early Divine King was actually connected to the God clan and the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng at the same time. This made them envious.
"There's only one person, but there are so many of you. I wonder who I should hand her over to?" Jianchen teased.
"That's none of your business. You just need to hand over the girl …"
"We'll naturally rely on our own abilities to see who gets the girl in the end. We just don't want to touch you. Of course, if you insist on not handing her over, we'll have to take action even if we have to risk offending the God clan and the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng … "
A few Divine Kings spoke out firmly, expressing that they would not give up on the girl.
As they spoke, more and more Divine Kings arrived on the floor. The people who had fallen behind constantly arrived as well.
Jianchen suddenly smiled strangely. He glanced past the Divine Kings and said, "I'm already undefeatable on this floor, so why should I hand her over to you?" With that, Jianchen suddenly fell towards the lava below.
At the same time, the space where he had been standing before pulsed. A rope that flickered with violet light suddenly appeared, binding the space there with the power of space.
If Jianchen had been a little slower, he probably would have been bound by the rope already.
Plop!
A strange sound rang out from the boiling lava below him. Under the surprised and confused gazes of all the Divine Kings, Jianchen dove into the lava without any preparations, disappearing from everyone's sight.
