Jianchen's face was cold. He knew that he could use the Anatta Tower to repel his opponent when he was caught off-guard and had no idea about its power.
However, he could not use the same method a second time.
It was extremely likely for the Anatta Tower to be taken away the second time.
Jianchen put away the Anatta Tower. Holding it in his hand, he flew backwards.
Up ahead, the ancestral emperor's hand condensed from terrifying energy reached over with supreme pressure. Wherever it passed by, space froze and laws froze. It rapidly extended towards Jianchen, making it difficult for Jianchen to condense his Laws of the Sword. All the laws he grasped were affected, preventing him from using them normally.
With a single strike, they could affect space and interfere with the operation of laws. This was the terrifying aspect of Grand Primes.
Even though they were nowhere close to Grand Exalts who had fused with the laws, Grand Primes also possessed an extremely deep comprehension of the laws. They could use a portion of the power of laws.
As a result, Jianchen felt like he was facing the world when the ancestral emperor struck out. It was as if the world he currently resided in had suppressed all the laws he grasped.
However, Jianchen did not become flustered at all. With a thought, he activated the power of the Anatta Tower. Immediately, the power of the Anatta Tower broke through Jianchen's seal and enveloped Jianchen.
Jianchen used the power of the Anatta Tower to protect himself, isolating himself from the laws of the world. He retreated several hundred meters in a flash, arriving at the central square of the bustling city.
At this moment, the central square had been reduced to a mess. Many structures had collapsed, reduced to ruins. They had basically been flattened by the shockwaves of the battle.
The protective formation of the Daohuang Empire did not protect the city. Instead, it gathered around the city, sealing it up to prevent the shockwaves from spreading out and causing even greater damage.
This was because just too many peak experts had gathered here. Even the protective formation struggled to stop them all. If the formation was damaged, it would not be worth it.
In the central square that had turned into ruins, there were still two places that were not affected at all.
The first place was a teleportation formation that could cross continents. It was one of the most precious treasures of the Daohuang Empire, and it wasn't easy to construct it. Thus, it received the best protection.
In another place, there was a flight of stairs formed by Sword Qi.
This was the Path of Swords established by the greatest expert on the Desolate Plane, the Celestial Sword Saint. The Path of Swords was similarly unscathed. As soon as the shockwaves approached the Path of Swords, they seemed to be sliced apart by an invisible sword, diverging in two directions.
As for Jianchen, he was already standing beside the Path of Swords.
He swept his gaze over the many peak experts gathered in the surroundings before raising his head to look at the sky. A wisp of determination appeared in his eyes as he brazenly stepped onto the Path of Swords.
In an instant, Jianchen's entire body was enveloped by an intense sword aura. He was already standing on the first step of the Path of Swords.
The expression of the ancestral emperor of the Daohuang Empire changed. He immediately stopped attacking and stared at Jianchen from a hundred meters away. He was emotionless.
The Path of Swords had been established by the Celestial Sword Saint so that he could choose his successor. It was rumored that once someone made it to the end of the Path of Swords, they would have the opportunity to become the Celestial Sword Saint's disciple.
Once someone made it onto the Path of Swords, they would officially undergo the Celestial Sword Saint's test. The ancestral emperor of the Daohuang Empire no longer dared to continue attacking.
"Jianchen has actually made it onto the Path of Swords …"
"Oh no, Jianchen primarily cultivates the Laws of the Sword, and his talent is rather impressive. If he passes the Celestial Sword Saint's test and becomes the Celestial Sword Saint's disciple, we won't stand a chance at all …"
The peak experts who kept Hun Zang busy also paid attention to Jianchen's situation at all. They all cried out as their expressions became ugly. There were even people who directly questioned the ancestral emperor of the Daohuang Empire.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to pass the Celestial Sword Saint's test. The Celestial Sword Saint has extremely high standards. How can a test personally set by him be passed so easily …" said a peak expert.
At this moment, there was a flash. The hall elder of the God clan, Tyne, and the old man from the Heaven-splitting clan, Tu San, returned as well.
Both of them cut a sorry figure. No one knew what the final outcome of their battle would be.
"He actually wants to attempt the Path of Swords!" The God Race Temple Elder Tina looked at the blurry figure enshrouded in sword intent on the Path of Swords, and her brows furrowed slightly as she muttered to herself, "However, this may be the best course of action for now."
However, Tu San's face sank. He glared at Tyne and said coldly, "Your God clan has delayed my master's plans, making him wait a little longer. It's best if your God clan considers the consequences of offending my master."
Tyne's eyes turned cold, and she replied coldly as well, "If your Heaven-splitting clan has the ability, come to the Godnigma Plane and settle your debts with our God clan."
"Hmph, my master is only a step away from that level of cultivation. Once my master breaks through, I'd like to see how your God clan can remain arrogant," Tu San snorted coldly as if he was worried.
At this moment, the battle between Hun Zang and the peak experts stopped as Jianchen stepped onto the Path of Swords. He glanced at Jianchen on the Path of Swords before looking at outer space. His gaze became extremely shocking.
"Heavenly King of Azure Brilliance!" Suddenly, Hun Zang bellowed out furiously, and he suddenly vanished. When he reappeared, he was already standing on the Martial Soul Mountain.
"Martial Soul Array!" Hun Zang called out and condensed the formation with the six other people from the Martial Soul Mountain again. Their powers fused together, completely fusing with the power of the Martial Soul Mountain. Powerful Martial Soul Force surged out like a tidal wave, attacking the Azure Peng King.
The Martial Soul Force came from the combined power of the seven of them. The power was no longer scattered, condensing into a single point. It was extremely terrifying.
A smear of fear appeared in the Azure Peng King's eyes as he constantly attacked the Martial Soul Mountain. With a flash, he retreated several hundred million kilometres away, escaping from the range of the Martial Soul Force.
The seven people on the Martial Soul Mountain were sunken. The Azure Peng King was just too fast. Even the attacks of Martial Soul Force could not catch up to him, so they were unable to do anything to him.
"Jianchen must die. No one can protect him. If your Martial Soul lineage dares to assist Jianchen again, I'll destroy your Martial Soul lineage as well. Unless your lineage hides on the Martial Soul Mountain forever, you won't be able to escape from my pursuit, "the Azure Peng King said coldly. He was filled with killing intent.
