After muttering, the Darkstar Emperor ignored Jianchen who had been sent flying by his punch and continued to fly towards the herb garden. He knew that Jianchen's spatial laws were miraculous. Even if he pursued him, Jianchen could still use the spatial laws to escape.
The Nascent Dao Fruit was the key. He was very clear about the effects of this item. A Nascent Dao Fruit that had perfectly transformed into a high-grade divine fruit could not fall into the hands of this outsider no matter what.
On the other side, Jianchen's figure that had been sent flying suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, his injuries had mostly healed. He still rushed towards the Darkstar Emperor with sword qi that filled the sky. He wanted to delay the Darkstar Emperor and buy time for the Nascent Dao Fruit.
Because the Nascent Dao Fruit was still in the process of transforming, it had not fully matured. However, with the time acceleration of the thirty crystals, the transformation speed would be shortened countless times.
Therefore, he only needed to delay the Darkstar Emperor for a moment.
When the color reflected in the sky turned into an incomparably gorgeous multicolored light, it would be the moment the Nascent Dao Fruit truly matured.
"An ant trying to shake a tree. You're overestimating yourself!" The Darkstar Emperor growled and the Royal Seal floating above his head immediately flew out to meet Jianchen. However, just as the Royal Seal was about to hit Jianchen, Jianchen suddenly changed direction and appeared on the other side, forcing the Darkstar Emperor to retaliate with a punch.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the sword qi was shattered by the Darkstar Emperor's punch. However, this time, it was pure sword qi and Jianchen's figure was nowhere to be seen.
The next moment, in another direction, Jianchen's real body suddenly emerged from space and delivered a fatal blow like a venomous snake.
The Darkstar Emperor waved his fist again and again. While shattering Jianchen's attack, he also sent Jianchen flying far away.
Similar scenes repeated themselves. The Nascent Dao Fruit was about to ripen, so Jianchen could no longer care about the price he had to pay. He completely paid the price of being injured to keep the Darkstar Emperor busy.
He had no idea how many attacks he had endured. The Darkstar Emperor's attacks were just too violent. Every single strike would leave him heavily injured. If it were not for his Chaotic Body's extremely tough defences and shocking recovery, he probably would not have been able to last until now.
However, after paying such a price, the effect was very obvious. The Darkstar Emperor's advance was slowed down.
The Darkstar Emperor was secretly furious. He became more and more shocked by the strength of the Chaotic Body because at that moment, Jianchen was basically unkillable in his eyes. He could not kill him no matter what. No matter how heavily injured he was, he could recover rapidly. Whenever he thought he could not last any longer, he would appear before him with the Laws of Space again. Moreover, he did not seem to have lost much of his battle prowess. If he did not stop him, he would even pose a threat to the Darkstar Emperor.
During that time, the Darkstar Emperor even used his God Tier Battle Skill again. Originally, he thought that Jianchen would not be able to nullify his God Tier Battle Skill since he was heavily injured.
However, the Darkstar Emperor was disappointed. He used the God Tier Battle Skill again against the heavily injured Jianchen, but it was still useless. As soon as the God Tier Battle Skill appeared, it immediately deflated like a balloon, losing all of its power.
On the other hand, the Darkstar Emperor was greatly exhausted from using the God Tier Battle Skill again and again.
He had also tried to use the royal seal and the triangular shield to stop Jianchen, preventing him from stopping his advance. However, Jianchen's Laws of Space were just too elusive. The two god artifacts were unable to protect him completely, so there would always be openings. In the end, Jianchen used these openings to attack, forcing the Darkstar Emperor to block him.
Jianchen's wounds became heavier and heavier. Most of his flesh and blood had vanished. As a matter of fact, only his exposed bones could be seen from half of his body. Many of his bones had completely shattered.
He was just too heavily injured, to the point where it was impossible to look straight at him. The recovery of the Chaotic Body was nowhere near enough to keep up with his injuries, and the Darkstar Emperor was gradually approaching the garden.
In the end, he was unable to completely stop the Darkstar Emperor from approaching the medicinal garden. He could only slow him down temporarily.
Eight million kilometers …
Five million kilometers …
The Darkstar Emperor drew closer and closer to the medicinal garden. Very soon, he was only two million kilometers away.
However, with the Darkstar Emperor's battle prowess that was equivalent to a Chaotic Prime, he could destroy the medicinal garden from a distance of a million kilometers with his great power.
Jianchen's heart sank slightly when he saw the Darkstar Emperor gradually approach the medicinal garden in an unstoppable manner. If the Fruit of Ways had not broken through, then so be it. He could have just taken it and left. Although medium grade was not as good as high grade, it would still be extremely helpful to him.
However, the Fruit of Ways had already begun to break through when he discovered it. Once it began, there was no turning back. It would be destroyed if it did not succeed.
This was similar to an expert breaking through to a major realm of cultivation. Once they were disturbed by external forces, they would suffer a huge backlash. They would suffer unimaginable injuries or even die because of this.
At this moment, multicolored light suddenly surged into the distant medicinal garden. The entire sky was dyed into a resplendent world of multicolored light.
Within the light that filled the sky, there was an extremely pure energy of the Great Path circulating. It seemed to have resonated with the 3,000 Great Paths in the world, causing the Great Path to manifest. It was like numerous divine chains of order were interwoven together, and it emanated the sound of the Great Path that was like a great bell. It was magical and profound.
"The Fruit of Ways has ripened!" Jian Chen beamed when he saw the five-colored light in the horizon. This was finally the moment he had been waiting for. Without any hesitation, he immediately abandoned the Darkstar Emperor and flickered. Every time he flickered, he would teleport, crossing great distances with each flicker. He hurried over as quickly as he could with the Laws of Space.
However, he was still two million kilometers away from the medicinal garden. Even if Jianchen travelled at full speed with the Laws of Space, he would still need a few seconds to cover this distance.
"Oh no, the Fruit of Ways can't fall into his hands." The Darkstar Emperor's face changed drastically. Before an expert who was proficient in the Laws of Space, he knew that it would be very difficult for him to catch up and snatch the Fruit of Ways first. Helpless, he could only grit his teeth.
The next moment, he began to burn his essence blood. He finally made up his mind to burn his essence blood at the cost of self-harm to use a unique secret technique to summon the past glory of the Royal Seal. He formed a series of seals with both hands and at the same time, he spat out a beam of blood-red light from his mouth, dyeing the fist-sized Royal Seal red.
The Royal Seal was originally a medium quality god artifact. However, it had been severely damaged in the past. Not only was its power reduced to less than ten percent, even its Artifact Spirit had disappeared.
However, when the Darkstar Emperor spat out a mouthful of essence blood and the seals he formed vanished from the Royal Seal, the Royal Seal seemed to awaken from its slumber. Immediately, it shone brightly as powerful energy directly ripped through space, causing the surrounding space to sink into darkness.
After absorbing a mouthful of the emperor's essence blood, the royal seal seemed to return to its golden age. It shone with the unique light of a medium quality god artifact, illuminating the entire world.
A medium quality god artifact was a god artifact that belonged to Chaotic Primes. As a matter of fact, even some Grand Primes who were in rather dire straits still possessed medium quality god artifacts.
"I never thought that the Emperor would actually be forced into a corner like this," the Darkstar Emperor sighed gently. The Darkstar Emperor sighed softly. Losing his essence blood made him look a little tired. Then, he pointed with his finger and the dazzling seal instantly disappeared.
No, the Royal Seal did not vanish. Instead, it moved through space at a speed that surpassed Jianchen's, heading straight for the medicinal garden.
The Royal Seal's current speed was truly comparable to a living Chaotic Prime. It vanished with a single step, traversed a world with a single step. It was extremely fast.
Even if Jianchen used the Laws of Space to travel as quickly as he could, he would not be able to match the speed of a Chaotic Prime. He was immediately surpassed.
After all, the Primordial Chaos realm was a higher level of existence. This kind of existence would experience a qualitative leap in all aspects. In the vast cosmos, Primordial Chaos experts could even travel alone and catch up to void spaceships.
Although the Darkstar Emperor possessed the battle prowess of a Chaotic Prime, that was only battle prowess. He did not possess the various abilities and abilities that Chaotic Primes possessed.
For example, the Darkstar Emperor's comprehension of laws remained at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime. His cultivation also remained at the Ninth Heavenly Layer. His speed and level of existence were naturally the same as well.
As a result, he was slower than Jianchen in terms of speed.
However, it was different for Chaotic Primes.
In just a few seconds, the Royal Seal arrived above the medicinal garden first. It turned into a huge mountain in a single moment, crushing towards the ground with a destructive force. It shattered space.
On the other side, Jianchen used the Laws of Space to the limit as he hurried towards the medicinal garden with lightning speed. At the same time, he shot out strands of sword Qi, which shot towards the Royal Seal with great speed in an attempt to slow it down.
However, the royal seal possessed the might of a medium quality god artifact after all. The power of a medium quality god artifact was not something that Jian Chen could shake right now, so his sword Qi was useless.
The Royal Seal rapidly descended. It gave off a tremendous pressure, causing all the plants in the garden to prostrate themselves.
With this speed, Jianchen would not be able to reach the medicinal garden before the Royal Seal.
At this crucial moment, a third strand of Profound Sword Qi appeared between his eyebrows. Jianchen did not know if the Profound Sword Qi would work, but he could only try.
As soon as the Profound Sword Qi appeared, it immediately surged into the sky before turning into a streak of light that broke through the restraints of space and time. It ignored the distance between them and struck the Royal Seal in a single moment.
The Royal Seal immediately trembled violently as it flickered with light. It shook violently in the air. Two million kilometres away, the Darkstar Emperor only felt his head hum as if he had been struck by an invisible hammer. His connection with the Royal Seal actually became extremely fragile at that moment, as if it could be severed at any time.
Fortunately, this only lasted for a short moment before he recovered.
However, in that moment, Jianchen had successfully entered the medicinal garden. With a wave of his hand, the Fruit of Ways landed in his hand. In the next moment, it vanished, having been stowed away in his Space Ring.
