The protective power from the protector swords could actually block their Martial Soul Force. This was not good news for them.
This was because if that happened …
Their Martial Soul Force would be completely useless before the wielders of the protector swords.
"How can this be? What are the origins of these protector swords? They can even block our Martial Soul Force," Chu Jian said sternly.
"In the history of our Martial Soul lineage, there has never been an existence or an artifact that can block our Martial Soul Force. There has never been anything like this in the ancient records." Su Qi frowned as well.
"Now that the Radiant Saint Hall has six protector swords, what will our Martial Soul lineage use to fend off the Radiant Saint Hall in the future?" Yun Ziting said sternly.
For a moment, the eight successors of the Martial Soul lineage fell silent. The protector swords were so powerful, yet the Radiant Saint Hall had six of them all at once. Coupled with the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, Yu Chen, the vice-leaders, and the various elders, they were several times more powerful than the Martial Soul Mountain.
Even if they formed an alliance with the Poseidon Palace, they would not be able to make up for this difference.
"Senior Yue Chao, may I ask who the wielders of the protector swords are?" Jianchen suddenly asked a while later.
"The identities of the six wielders of the protector swords have not been made public by the Radiant Saint Hall. I only know two of them. They're Donglin Yan Xue and Han Xin," said Yue Chao.
"What? The wielders of the two protector swords are Donglin Yanxue and Han Xin? "Jian Chen was surprised. Clearly, he was greatly surprised.
This was because the two of them were people he was familiar with.
Donglin Yan Xue was not a big deal. She was the Chosen Saint of the Radiant Saint Hall. Her talent was extraordinary, so it was normal for her to obtain a protector sword. However, both Han Xin's talent and potential were average in the Radiant Saint Hall. Jianchen was surprised that he could inherit a protector sword.
"Is this related to the artifact spirit of the saint artifact?" Jian Chen guessed inside as the light in his eyes flickered.
He hesitated for a while before standing up. He immediately bid farewell to Hun Zang and the others, stating that he wanted to visit the Desolate Plane.
"No. The Radiant Saint Hall is powerful on the Desolate Plane now. They might not be able to control everything, but they're close. Eighth junior, you're also the person the Radiant Saint Hall hates the most. It's too dangerous for you to go to the Desolate Plane," Hun Zang immediately said.
"That's right. Eighth junior, you've taken away the Grand Exalt's cultivation method of the Radiant Saint Hall. The Radiant Saint Hall is currently searching for you everywhere.
If you go to the Barren State, you'll be like a lamb walking into a tiger's den. "
"Eighth Junior Brother, you can't go to the Barren State. After all, you're not as powerful as Senior Brother Yue Chao …"
The other successors of the Martial Soul lineage all tried to persuade him.
"Senior Brothers and Sisters, don't worry. I have a way to hide myself so that none of them will be able to discover me. Don't forget that back on the Desolate Plane, so many peak experts failed to find me despite using everything they had. In terms of strength, I'm obviously not as powerful as senior Yue Chao, but probably none of you are as good as me when it comes to hiding myself, "Jian Chen said confidently. Not only did he have the mask from Mo Tianyun that could conceal all of his presence, but he also had the jade pendant from the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng that could protect him from innate abilities like the Elder of Mountains and Seas.
With these two layers of protection, he was confident that his concealment had truly reached a flawless level. Unless he encountered a supreme expert like the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, there were not many people in the entire Saints' World who could see through him.
Swish!
Jianchen immediately turned into a streak of light and shot off the Martial Soul Mountain with lightning speed. He crossed ten thousand kilometres in a single instance, vanishing into outer space in the blink of an eye. He had left by himself.
"Has Jianchen left?" After Jianchen's departure, the gloomy and dejected Ziyun arrived as well. She looked at the people of the Martial Soul lineage with rather empty eyes.
Su Qi sighed secretly when she saw Ziyun like this. She said gently, "Eighth junior has only left the Martial Soul Mountain temporarily. However, he'll return before long."
Ziyun said nothing. She turned around and left in a rather dejected manner, vanishing from the Poseidon Palace.
In the vast outer space, a streak of light shot through the sea of stars at an extremely fast speed like a meteor.
Jianchen held a star map in his hand as he travelled as quickly as he could within the streak of light.
"With my current speed, I only need three days to reach the nearest interplanar teleportation formation," thought Jian Chen. He did not use the power of the Martial Soul Mountain to directly move to the Desolate Plane this time. Instead, he planned on using interplanar teleportation formations.
This was because teleportation from the Martial Soul Mountain would consume a tremendous amount of power, and the target was just too large.
It was extremely easy for him to draw attention, making it difficult for him to hide. However, if he were to use a teleportation formation to travel across continents, then no one would be able to detect his presence.
Three days later, Jianchen arrived on the planet closest to him. After paying a few five-colored divine crystals, he successfully stepped onto the interplanar teleportation formation.
"Although I've lost the Anatta Tower, I'm still able to use it.
I can still hide my divine hall with the mask senior Mo Tianyun gave me, so the detection formations won't be able to detect any other living beings on me, "thought Jianchen. In the Saints' World, all interplanar teleportation formations forbade other living beings from being carried in their spatial containers. This was to prevent people from transporting large numbers of cultivators through spatial containers for profit.
After all, interplanar teleportation formations were tools for profit to any peak organisation. They would never allow others to harm their interests.
Of course, if you possessed great strength or a great background, you could completely ignore this rule.
In the southern region of the Barren State, in the imperial city of the Purple Wind Empire, dozens of Teleportation Formations were arranged in an orderly manner in the huge square in the center of the imperial city. The Teleportation Formations flickered continuously as cultivators traveled between two places through the Teleportation Formations. They were extremely busy.
Of course, these constantly flashing teleportation formations were all cross-region teleportation formations that could only be used within the Barren State. The larger cross-continent teleportation formations that were set up on the other side of the Barren State appeared to be very quiet. Usually, they would not light up once every half a month.
Several dozen soldiers stood guard around the teleportation formations. Most eye-catching of all was the fact that there was an extremely unkempt old man among the soldiers. He currently lay on a rattan chair lazily. He seemed to be extremely comfortable.
At this moment, one of the teleportation formations suddenly lit up. With a bright, white light, a white-robed, middle-aged man with a striking appearance appeared in the teleportation formation.
The middle-aged man was Jianchen, who had changed his appearance through the mask.
Jianchen saw the unkempt old man on the rattan chair nearby with a single glance. He remained calm on the surface, but he sighed emotionally inside, "I left here several decades ago. I never thought that I would actually return here several decades later."
Although the unkempt old man had shown him kindness in the past, Jianchen also understood that it was impossible for him to recognise the unkempt old man with his current identity. As a result, he did not glance at the unkempt old man. He walked out of the teleportation formation as usual and vanished into the sea of people very soon.
However, unbeknownst to him, just when he was about to vanish into the sea of people, the unkempt old man's eyes suddenly snapped open. He glanced at him doubtfully and wondered, "Why has this troublemaker come back?
