This was the origin energy of the sword spirits. It was not sword Qi. Instead, it was yin and yang Qi from the beginning of chaos.
Chaos was divided into yin and yang. The origin energy of the sword spirits was naturally extremely powerful. Every single one of them was on the same level as the Artifact Spirit of Primeval and the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance, or even greater than them.
This was because once the yin and yang Qi fused, they would return to their original state and turn into chaos, true Chaotic Force.
However, both Ziying and Qing Suo were still weak and had yet to recover. As a result, their current strength was nowhere close to their peak condition. The power they displayed did not give off too great of a pressure.
However, Jianchen could still sense a presence that seemed to split the world apart with his sharp senses. The appearance of the presence seemed to even disturb the laws of the world.
At the same time, the Artifact Spirit that had fused with all the power of the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance became dimmer and dimmer at a visible rate.
Its body rapidly vanished. It was fusing with the Tower of Radiance bit by bit according to the method imparted to it by the sword spirits. It had truly fused with the Tower of Radiance, turning the Tower of Radiance into a new shell that could hold its body.
This was the most crucial step, as well as the most important step. Whether they could successfully replace the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance would depend on this step.
At this moment, a tremendous heavenly might suddenly appeared. It descended upon the Tower of Radiance with a supreme power that seemed to be able to obliterate everything.
The heavenly might did not come from within the Tower of Radiance. Instead, it came from the outside world. However, it passed through the Tower of Radiance without any obstruction and directly descended upon the sacred pavilion.
This was the power of the heavens. It was powerful and terrifying, enough to make all living things shiver. It truly possessed the power to destroy worlds.
After all, the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance originated from the universe. It was a power on the same level as the sword spirits, the Artifact Spirit of Primeval, and the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance. It was protected by the laws of the world and was undying. However, when the Artifact Spirit attempted to devour the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance and replace it, it would naturally violate the laws of the world.
The rules of the Heavenly Path did not allow such a thing to happen. The power of the Heavenly Path descended in an attempt to destroy the Artifact Spirit.
However, as soon as the power of the Heavenly Ways appeared, all the heavenly secrets in the artifact space suddenly became hazy and blurry. A mysterious power suddenly appeared, throwing the laws into chaos and obscuring the heavenly secrets in an attempt to conceal the world.
At the crucial moment, the sword spirits took action. They were still unable to directly contend against the heavenly laws, but they could reverse yin and yang, preventing the heavenly laws from sensing them.
"Master, Chaotic Force!" The sword spirits called out.
Jianchen did not hesitate at all. The chaotic neidan in his dantian began to revolve rapidly. Strands of pure Chaotic Force surged out from the neidan before turning into a stream of energy, pouring into the sword spirits without holding back at all.
His Chaotic Force was like poison to other cultivators. Their bodies were unable to endure the terrifying power, but it was like the greatest tonic to the sword spirits.
With the assistance of Jianchen's Chaotic Force, the sword spirits immediately began to grow in strength. As their strength increased, their ability to reverse yin and yang and throw the laws of the world into chaos after working together became even greater as well. As a result, all the heavenly secrets in the surroundings were immediately obscured.
With the heavenly secrets obscured and the laws disrupted, the descending power of the Heavenly Path immediately lost its target like a blind man. It lingered around for a while before gradually dispersing.
However, the sword spirits did not stop. They continued to consume their origin energy, turning it into yin and yang, disrupting the laws of the world and obscuring the heavenly secrets so that the laws of the world could not sense them.
At this very moment, what they were doing was truly deceiving the heavens, deceiving the heavens to cross the sea.
Jianchen did not relax during this period of time. Clearly, the sword spirits' disruption of the laws would continue for quite some time. As long as the sword spirits did not stop, he needed to constantly provide them with Chaotic Force.
Jianchen immediately frowned when he sensed the rate at which his Chaotic Force was being depleted.
This was because his Chaotic Force was being consumed at a rate several hundred times faster than when he fought, or even a thousand times faster. He could basically feel his chaotic neidan shrink with every passing second.
"Who knows how many resources I'll have to use to replenish my Chaotic Force after this. However, as long as the Artifact Spirit succeeds, it'll be worth it no matter how much Chaotic Force I use, "thought Jian Chen. He sat on the ground like an inexhaustible source of energy, constantly supplying the sword spirits with energy.
The Artifact Spirit had completely vanished from the world. Even Jianchen was unable to sense it. It was as if it had completely fused with the space there.
However, as long as the sword spirits continued to disrupt the laws of yin and yang, it meant that the Artifact Spirit had not succeeded.
Time passed silently. After two whole days, the sword spirits finally stopped and turned back into the illusory figures of a man and a woman.
However, their figures were even dimmer than before. Exhaustion filled their faces as well. Clearly, they had expended a lot of energy.
"We've already successfully fooled everyone. This is as far as we can help him. He can only rely on himself for the final step of fusing with the Tower of Radiance. Now, all we can do is wait, wait for the final result," Zi Ying said weakly. With that, he and Qing Suo turned into two streaks of light, one violet and one azure, and disappeared into Jianchen's body. They fell into a deep slumber.
Jianchen sat on the ground as he stared at the desolate world where most of the mist had dispersed. He felt eager, "Artifact Spirit, you have to succeed. Don't let us down!"
Suddenly, Jianchen's eyes narrowed. They immediately pierced through the mist and reached several tens of thousand kilometres away.
Now that the mist in the Tower of Radiance had been drastically reduced, its influence on Jianchen had decreased as well. As a result, he could clearly see several tens of thousand kilometres away.
He could clearly see the eight protectors hurrying over with Donglin Yan Xue.
"I need to go somewhere else!" Jianchen stood up and erased all the traces he had left behind before leaving silently.
Soon after he had left, Donglin Yan Xue and the eight protectors appeared.
"The source of the disturbance should be here, but the strange thing is that everything is the same as before. There's nothing strange about it." The eight protectors patrolled the surroundings and searched carefully. They were all confused.
"Use the senses of your soul," said Donglin Yan Xue.
"Due to the mist here, the senses of our souls can only reach a few dozen kilometres away. However, I've already checked the surrounding few dozen kilometres. I've found nothing," said a protector.
"It's impossible for the mist here to decrease for no reason. Something must have happened in the sacred pavilion. We just came too late …" said another protector.
Afterwards, under Donglin Yan Xue's instructions, the protectors basically dug through the surrounding thousand kilometres and carefully searched every inch of the place.
The result was obvious. They found nothing.
A hundred thousand kilometres away, Jianchen sat on a hill quietly. Originally, he had entered the sacred pavilion to obtain the high level cultivation methods of Radiant Saint Masters, but he was in no mood to search for the ancient imprint now.
Right now, the success or failure of the Artifact Spirit was countless times more important than collecting the cultivation methods. Even if the legendary Grand Exalt's cultivation method was placed before him, it would not shake his concern for the Artifact Spirit.
Unfortunately, he had no idea about the current situation of the Artifact Spirit, nor was he able to do anything about it. All he could do was wait there quietly.
