"I can't be greedy. My priority right now is to find a way to leave the Desolate Plane …" Jianchen suppressed his impulse. He had just reached Sword Immortal, so he could collect a few more droplets of essence blood if he charged into the battlefield.
However, if he did that, it was extremely likely that his identity would be exposed.
He had managed to hide from the peak experts after so much difficulty, so he could not take the risk again.
As a result, Jianchen could only give up on Gusta's essence blood.
As Jianchen collected the five droplets of essence blood, he failed to notice that Caia's eyes had become extremely cold before he knew it.
It was a pair of cold eyes that did not contain any emotion at all. It was filled with disregard for life, as if it had surpassed everything.
The pair of cold eyes surpassed space and time, peered through laws and laws, and suddenly landed on the battlefield where the peak experts were fighting.
At this moment, all the peak experts were locked in a fierce battle over Gusta's essence blood. The energy of the world boiled and space shattered. Amidst this rain of blood, no one noticed that a dark golden ball the size of a thumb was mixed in.
The ball seemed extremely ordinary. Even when the senses of the soul scanned it, they would only discover that it was an ordinary object. There was nothing special about it.
It was exactly because of its ordinary appearance that no one noticed the thumb-sized, dark golden ball.
However, Caia's gaze directly landed on the ball.
In the next moment, the pill-sized, dark golden ball seemed to be summoned by some mysterious power. It changed its previous trajectory and flew towards Jianchen.
As it flew, a mysterious presence of ways seemed to revolve around it. As a result, the ball did not raise anyone's attention as it approached Jian Chen.
Swish!
The ball shot through the air, heading straight for the treacherous official.
Jianchen had just collected the five droplets of essence blood and was about to turn around when he suddenly discovered the golden ball flying towards him.
The moment he saw the golden ball, his heart shuddered violently. His soul that had changed after fusing with a sliver of Chaotic Force seemed to sense something, causing Jianchen's eyes to shine brightly. He extended his hand without any hesitation and grabbed the dark golden ball.
As soon as the pill-sized, dark golden ball entered Jianchen's hand, Jianchen's heart immediately began to burn.
At that moment, even with his mental fortitude, he struggled to remain calm. His heart began to thump uncontrollably.
Within the dark golden sphere, he could sense a terrifying energy that was indescribable with words. Even describing it as an ocean would not be enough to describe a tenth of the ball.
"T- t- is this Gusta's neidan? Is this the source of his energy? "
Jianchen sucked in a deep breath. With his current knowledge, he could roughly guess the origins of the ball. He suppressed his excitement and immediately collected the dark golden ball. He arrived before Caia in a flash.
"Let's go. Get as far away from here as possible …" Jianchen grabbed Caia's arm excitedly and shot off into the distance with lightning speed.
He could already predict that the peak experts would search for the dark golden ball madly. He needed to get as far away as possible.
Caia's eyes had already returned to normal. Her eyes were filled with doubt and confusion as she was pulled along by Jianchen.
She could vaguely sense that she had lost a small portion of her memories. She felt like her mind had gone blank during that short period of time, but no matter how hard she tried to recall, she could not come up with anything at all. In the end, she could only leave it as it was.
Jianchen and Caia flew off into the distance!
"Wait, where's the flesh pill? There should be a Fleshly Saint Pill in this Ancient Great Ape's corpse … "
"The flesh pill is gone. Who is it? Who obtained the flesh pill …"
"The flesh pill is the most precious item in the Ancient Great Apes' bodies. It's even more valuable than essence blood because the flesh pill is the source of the Ancient Great Apes' power …"
"This Ancient Great Ape must have been extremely powerful when it was alive. The value of the flesh pill in its body is immeasurable …"
Right at that moment, cries of surprise rang out. The peak experts gathered there were all looking around as they let out low cries of surprise.
Afterwards, the senses of their souls blanketed the surroundings as they searched for the presence of the flesh pill.
All of a sudden, the color of heaven and earth changed. The entire world was drowned in a blood-red hue. A supreme pressure suddenly descended.
At that moment, the world lost its color. The sun, moon, and stars vanished. The entire Desolate Plane seemed to have become a world of red. An endless sea of blood descended, enveloping the entire Desolate Plane.
The sea of blood was boundlessly terrifying. It stretched to several tens of thousand kilometres, possessing the power to destroy the world.
The appearance of the sea of blood caused the expressions of all the Primordial realm experts on the Desolate Plane to change drastically. They became filled with fear.
Even the peak experts who stood at the apex of the plane, Grand Primes, felt their souls tremble. Their faces were filled with shock.
This was because the moment the sea of blood appeared, the laws of the world had changed. The sea of blood seemed to replace the world. It represented the laws, creating laws that belonged to it on the Desolate Plane. It was as if the entire Desolate Plane had become its domain, causing all the Primordial realm experts on the Desolate Plane, including the peak experts, to lose control over the laws of the world.
Even the abundant origin energy on the Desolate Plane had left them, no longer under their control.
"T- the Bloodtear Grand Exalt …"
"It's the Bloodtear Grand Exalt. H- why has he emerged …"
All the peak experts were shocked. They all felt fearful and uneasy.
Grand Exalts were true sovereigns of the world, existences akin to the laws of the world. With a single thought, they could control the operations of the world and create the laws of the world. They were extremely terrifying.
With the Bloodtear Grand Exalt's personal arrival and the huge cavern deep underground, the peak experts immediately understood that the Bloodtear Grand Exalt probably had something to do with it.
Even Gusta's body that they were fighting over was probably related to the Bloodtear Grand Exalt.
As soon as they thought about how they had actually fought over the Bloodtear Grand Exalt's possession, all the peak experts gathered there paled. They became fearful and uneasy.
Several million kilometres away, Jianchen became immobilised the moment the sea of blood appeared. A terrifying power that he could not resist had sealed up the surroundings, trapping him there.
It wasn't just him. Even Caia, who was beside him, was affected.
As a result, the two of them remained frozen in the air, unable to move at all.
Jianchen was shocked. At that moment, he could clearly sense that he had been reduced from a great sword immortal to a mortal.
He was unable to use the Laws of the Sword. The Chaotic Force in his dantian had frozen as well, and his blood had stopped flowing. Even his heart had stopped beating.
Time in the entire world seemed to have come to an absolute standstill at that moment.
The only thing that remained unaffected was his thoughts.
Apart from his thoughts, he could not even move a finger.
A blood-red mist appeared before Jianchen silently. The sound of laws rumbled in the surroundings, and the three thousand laws changed as a result.
The blood-red mist seemed to have become the supreme embodiment of the laws of the world, ruling over everything.
At this moment, the blood-red mist changed and condensed into a blurry figure. His facial features were blurred, making it impossible to see his face.
Jianchen immediately felt like he was being watched, as if a pair of invisible eyes had landed on him.
The gaze was extremely terrifying. It seemed to be able to see through all mysteries, the past, the present, and the future. Jianchen immediately felt like all his secrets had been seen through. Even the mask Mo Tianyun had given him was completely useless.
Before the gaze, Jianchen seemed to have no secrets at all. Everything he possessed, including the Anatta Tower, his fleshly core, and the strands of Profound Sword Qi in his soul, seemed to be seen through by the gaze.
As a matter of fact, even the Azulet swords hidden within him were unable to hide from the gaze. They were clearly exposed.
"Grand Exalt …" Jianchen's throat became dry as his heart sank.
