The Divine King paled in fright. He had just escaped death, so he was in a relaxed state. Coupled with the fact that he had never thought that someone would be lying in ambush here, he was unable to dodge the sudden attack at all.
Spurt!
The sword shone with a starry light. With lightning speed, it stabbed into the Divine King's forehead, wiping out his soul on the spot.
Jianchen slowly drew the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways as he stared at the corpse coldly. He showed no pity at all as he casually took away the Space Ring.
"You've hunted me down for so long, so it's time for you to pay back some interest," Jian Chen murmured. As he said that, the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways shone brightly as well. Vaguely, four stars seemed to appear, directly slashing towards the exit before him.
Spurt!
When Jianchen slashed out, a Divine King just happened to descend from the eighth floor as if he was fleeing for his life. Before he could even react, Jianchen had beheaded him.
Immediately, blood spurted into the air.
"Jianchen …" The Divine King bellowed out furiously. He was both surprised and furious, but before he could even summon his soul, Jianchen's second attack had arrived. It cleaved his head in half, wiping out his soul.
Ignoring how heavily injured the Divine Kings were in the eighth floor and how much of their battle prowess they still had, every single one of them believed that they had escaped from the lizard when they successfully made it to the seventh floor. They could not help but rejoice from surviving a disaster, so they lowered their guard to the lowest possible level.
Jianchen, on the other hand, was always prepared, ready to unleash his most powerful attack at any time. Therefore, his action of waiting for the rabbit to show up naturally achieved a very significant effect.
After two breaths of time, another person descended from the 8th level. Jianchen executed the same move as before, and he didn't give the person any time to react or prepare before he stabbed out with his sword. It was swift like a bolt of lightning, and it directly pierced through the person's forehead and killed him on the spot.
However, there were a total of four people who came down this time. When Jianchen killed the first person, the other three also noticed his presence.
"Jian Chen, how bold of you to remain here," Ye Futian sneered. One of the burly men bellowed out. When he saw the person Jian Chen had killed, he immediately became furious. He bellowed out, "You actually killed the successor of the Solitary Sword lineage, Gong Zheng. The Solitary Sword lineage will not spare you."
Jianchen's expression froze. Because there was no one he was familiar with on the eighth floor, he had to stand guard here. As soon as he saw someone come down, he would immediately attack. There was no time to identify who it was.
Only now did he discover in surprise that the supreme Godking he had killed was actually one of the eight people who had attacked him before, the successor of the Solitary Sword lineage, Gong Zheng.
However, Gong Zheng's dazzling, golden robes were in tatters now. They had become pitch-black, having lost their golden luster. Even his entire body had almost been burnt to a crisp.
"Bai Yi, Legmont, do it!" The burly man who called out was Jia Na, who had protected Gong Zheng, Bai Yi, and Cang Ying before.
Jia Na bellowed out and attacked Jianchen with the other two at the same time.
Bai Yi's gaze was cold. Without any hesitation, he took out his metal rod and attacked Jianchen as hard as he could.
Jia Na took out his god artifact as well, launching an attack as soon as he could.
Aside from Legmont, all three of them possessed god artifacts. However, Legmont only used supreme quality saint artifacts.
It was three against one, so they possessed an absolute advantage in terms of numbers. Moreover, Jia Na ranked within the top hundred of the Divine King's seat, making him extremely powerful.
However, the three of them were like Gong Zheng. They had been heavily injured on the eighth floor, where some of their skin had been burnt to a crisp. Their true battle prowess was obviously nowhere near their peak condition.
On the other hand, Jianchen was at his peak condition. With the god artifact, the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways, his battle prowess had increased drastically.
As a result, Jianchen did not lose the upper hand against the three of them. Instead, he gained a slight advantage.
Spurt! After just a few exchanges, Jia Na vomited blood. His face was extremely pale.
He had not been injured by Jianchen. Instead, he had been swept by the lizard's tail on the eighth floor, directly taking away half of his life. Now that he was fighting against Jianchen, his injuries had worsened.
"Let's go!" Jia Na bellowed out and stopped fighting. He called out to the two of them and fled into the distance.
"You want to leave? It won't be that easy!" Jianchen snorted coldly. A strand of Profound Sword Qi shot out, catching up to Jia Na in a single moment and entering his soul.
Jia Na cried out miserably as he plummeted from the sky. His soul had almost dispersed. He was so heavily injured that he did not even have the strength to run anymore.
At the same time, four huge stars appeared from Jianchen's Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways. They collided with Bai Yi's metal rod.
Bai Yi grunted out. The web between his thumb and forefinger cracked, and his fingers broke. The metal rod flew out of his hands.
However, Jianchen's Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways did not lose all momentum after knocking away Bai Yi's god artifact. It stabbed into Bai Yi's head with its remaining might.
Just like that, Bai Yi died.
Without Jia Na and Bai Yi holding him back, Legmont naturally could not last for long when he was injured. He was slain by Jianchen very soon.
Afterwards, Jianchen arrived before Jia Na, who clutched his head and wailed out. He mercilessly ended Jia Na's life.
Jianchen removed Jia Na's Space Ring and picked up his god artifact. The god artifact was a huge sword that was as wide as a hand.
Aside from the sword, Jianchen also discovered a thumb-sized bead on Jia Na's corpse. The bead was also a god artifact.
"Two god artifacts. One for attack and one for defence. It looks like Jia Na is just too heavily injured, so he can only use one god artifact." Jianchen murmured before picking up Bai Yi's metal rod. He tossed it into the Anatta Tower as well.
After thinking about it, Jianchen suddenly took out the Space Rings he had obtained. After rummaging through them, he took out several dozen formation discs in one go. Afterwards, he carefully made his way to the eighth floor with the discs, setting them all up at the entrance with lightning speed.
After setting everything up, Jianchen did not even look at them. He turned around and left, returning to the seventh floor.
These formation discs were either for attack or defence. They were of quite high quality. Jianchen placed over a dozen formation discs together, forming a barrier at the entrance of the eighth floor, preventing people from coming down.
"God dammit, bastard. Who's so despicable as to block the way down …"
Jianchen could vaguely hear furious roars, which filled him with great joy.
Several Divine Kings on the eighth floor stared at the barrier created by the formation discs as their faces paled from anger.
"Let's work together and destroy these formations. These formations won't last much longer," said a Divine King in a hurry.
However, just when they were about to take action, the lizard glanced over as well. With a swipe of its tongue, it dragged a supreme Godking into its mouth.
The faces of the other supreme Godkings paled in fright as they fled in all directions.
"We can't go down to the seventh floor. Let's go to the ninth floor. Quick, quick, quick …"
Immediately, all the Divine Kings who had fled to the seventh floor charged towards the ninth floor.
