The light in Xie Wang's eyes flickered with uncertainty as he watched Jianchen engage in a bitter battle nearby. He was filled with hesitation.
"They're the emissaries and elders of the Serpent God Hall. Heavens, how have they offended the people of the Serpent God Hall? What should I do? What should I do? Should I take part in this matter? Should I help them?" Xie Wang thought. He found it rather difficult to make a decision.
After a while, Xie Wang finally clenched his teeth and thought, "Whatever. I only have around a hundred years to live anyway. For the divine water of the world, for the sake of successfully reaching the 15th Star, I'll do it."
Xie Wang finally made up his mind with that thought. He immediately charged toward the four emissaries, blocking two for Jianchen.
"Evil King, how dare you offend my Serpent God Hall? Are you tired of living?" An envoy of the divine hall called out sternly.
"I've gone too far this time. I've offended the people of the Serpent God Hall. They'll definitely hunt me down in the future, so I won't be able to set foot in the Serpent God Hall again. I've helped you so much, so you must give me the divine water of the world within fifty years. Otherwise, I swear that I won't rest until you're dead," Xie Wang said to Jianchen as he fended off the attacks of the two emissaries.
"Don't worry, I won't go back on my word. I'll definitely give you the divine water of the world within fifty years," Jian Chen replied. With Xie Wang blocking the attacks of the two emissaries for him, the pressure on Jianchen immediately decreased drastically. He immediately struck out as hard as he could. The Dragonslayer sword in his hand constantly stabbed at the two emissaries with a destructive presence.
Even though Jianchen was quite injured, dealing with the two emissaries who were at the Eighth Heavenly Layer was nothing difficult for him. The Dragonslayer sword turned into blurs that filled the sky and enveloped the two emissaries. The overlapping blurs completely obscured the surrounding space.
The two emissaries became extremely stern. They quickly swung their weapons to block Jianchen's attacks as hard as they could.
The dense sounds of weapons clashing constantly rang out. The Dragonslayer sword clashed with the weapons of the two emissaries in the air, producing a series of deafening clangs.
Jianchen's sword was just too fast, and his Ruler Armament was extremely powerful. Every strike possessed great power, so the two emissaries only lasted for a few seconds before they became covered in wounds. One of them had his heart pierced by Jianchen, while the other had his entire right arm chopped off by Jianchen. They produced chilling cries as they lost the ability to continue fighting.
After repelling the two emissaries, Jianchen immediately went to assist Xie Wang. They worked together to heavily injure the last two emissaries before pulling Xie Wang away and disappearing from sight very soon.
Nubis was already injured. He was covered in blood, but this did not weaken his battle prowess at all. Instead, it aroused the viciousness of his bloodline. He became more and more valiant as he fought, keeping the two Holy Emperor busy all by himself. At the same time, he used his own poison on the two Holy Emperor, forcing them to use a portion of their strength to suppress the poison. As a result, their strength was greatly reduced.
"What shitty elders? Is that all you're capable of? Once I break through in the future, killing you will be as easy as flipping my hand. I'm not playing with you anymore, "Nubis spat out a poisonous mist that enveloped the two Holy Emperor. He quickly left, disappearing into the horizon in the blink of an eye.
"We can't let them get away. Let's chase after them." Jensen ignored his injuries and chased after them.
"Stop chasing." Elder Ma Yan stopped Jensen with a wave of his hand. He stared in the direction Nubis and Xie Wang had fled in and said with a heavy voice, "Sidi and I are poisoned right now. The poison is extremely powerful, so we need to get rid of it as soon as possible. Otherwise, our lives will be in danger."
"The item is on them. We can't let them get away. The antidotes we have on us are unable to get rid of this poison. It's already too late for us to return to the divine hall. We need to find a place to suppress the spread of the poison and report this to the hall elders," Sidi said with a heavy voice. Si Di said in a deep voice. If they did not suppress the poison that was spreading in their bodies, they would soon die from the poison.
There were two types of elders in the Serpent God Hall. One was the ordinary elders, while the other was the hall elders.
Ordinary elders only needed to reach the 15th Star to take up the post, but hall elders needed to reach the peak of the 16th Star to take up the post. Among the three divine halls, hall elders were only second to the hall masters in status and authority. They were the most powerful people below the hall masters.
Elder Ma Yan and Sidi were only ordinary elders of the Serpent God Hall.
The two elders and the four emissaries were quite injured. In particular, elder Ma Yan and elder Sidi's injuries were extremely severe. They needed to heal as soon as possible, or their lives would be in danger. As a result, they did not continue to chase after Jianchen's group of three. Instead, they found a place nearby to heal and suppress the poison within them. At the same time, they reported this to the Serpent God Hall.
The Serpent God Hall learned of the situation very soon. The hall elder, Charlie, flew into a rage and immediately sent two more powerful elders with two antidotes to the location of the incident to save Sidi and Ma Yan. At the same time, they were tasked with the mission of retrieving the item.
Although the two of them were still at the 15th Star, they were equivalent to the Holy Emperor at the Third Heavenly Layer according to the standards of the Tian Yuan Continent.
Jian Chen and Xie Wang quickly fled into the distance. At this moment, he no longer cared about healing his wounds. He spent all his time traveling to prevent the experts of the Serpent God Hall from catching up to him again.
Before long, Nubis caught up from behind as well. He flew into the distance with Jianchen and Xie Wang. Nubis was currently pale-faced and in a horrible shape. He coughed up blood from time to time, having been heavily injured.
Jianchen took out a large number of Class 6 Radiant Spirit Pills from his Space Ring and gave them to Nubis. He said, "Swallow these. Although they won't be enough to heal you completely, they can at least alleviate some of your wounds and prevent them from worsening." Now that Xie Wang was present, Jianchen did not want to expose the secret of the saint artifact.
Nubis did not hold back at all. He directly grabbed all the Class 6 Radiant Spirit Pills from Jianchen's hands and swallowed them like candy.
"I really don't know if I made the wrong choice by following you. I never thought that I would offend the Serpent God Hall so quickly. The Serpent God Hall possesses absolute authority in their territory. They can command all the organisations of various sizes. We can't stay in the Serpent God Hall anymore. We need to leave, "Xie Wang grumbled.
Jianchen immediately took out a map and checked it. He said, "We're closest to the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall right now. Let's hurry to the Heaven's Spirit Hall immediately."
Jianchen, Xie Wang, and Xie Wang hurried to the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. After traveling for three whole days, they finally arrived at the edge of the territory of the Serpent God Hall. They were less than ten thousand kilometers away.
During those three days, Jianchen's wounds had completely healed from the powerful regenerative abilities of the Chaotic Body. Even Nubis had recovered from his wounds with the assistance of a large number of Class 6 Radiant Spirit Pills, returning to his peak condition.
During the three days of fleeing, Jianchen ignored the exhaustion of his soul. He constantly expanded the senses of his soul, enveloping a radius of several thousand kilometers. He paid close attention to the situation in the surroundings and avoided any possible dangers.
At this moment, Jianchen's face changed slightly. He growled, "Oh no, the experts of the Poseidon Hall have actually caught up. They're even stronger this time. We can't stop them at all. Let's go."
"What? They've actually caught up again? How did they find us?" Nubis's face changed slightly. Without any hesitation, he grabbed Jianchen's arm and charged forward as fast as he could. As long as they traveled another ten thousand kilometers, they would leave the territory of the Serpent God Hall.
Nubis fused with the surrounding space and used Spatial Force to travel. He moved three or four times faster than before, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.
Xie Wang's strength was similar to Nubis'. He was a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler, so he followed closely behind Nubis and Xie Wang.
However, the two Holy Emperor experts behind them moved even faster. When Jianchen's group was still three thousand kilometers away from the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall, they could vaguely sense their tremendous presences.
"God dammit, they're experts at the Third Heavenly Layer at the very least. If they catch up to us, we won't be able to escape anymore." Nubis's face changed drastically as he cried out. He immediately sped up, flying toward the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall with lightning-like speed.
The distance between the two sides rapidly narrowed as they pursued. At this moment, Jian Chen's group could clearly see the two experts chasing after them. They were less than fifty kilometers away now.
"You've injured a member of the Serpent God Hall, so we will hunt you down to the ends of the world. You won't be able to escape, so just surrender obediently." A thunderous voice rang out from behind them. The two elders of the Serpent God Hall who were chasing after them had called out.
"Surrender? Do you think we're idiots?" Nubis pouted and whispered in disdain. However, he did not slow down at all. Instead, he sped up.
Finally, Jianchen's group was only twenty-five kilometers away from the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. At this moment, the two elders behind them seemed to become worried. They struck out decisively, sending out a powerful blade Qi at Jianchen and Nubis with lightning speed.
The blade Qi had completely locked onto their presences, making it impossible to dodge.
"I'll block it." Jianchen bellowed out at the sky. Chaotic Force surged wildly within him as he pushed the defences of the Chaotic Body to their limits.
Boom!
The powerful blade Qi directly landed on Jianchen's chest. His clothes were immediately reduced to pieces, revealing the golden armor he wore underneath. His chest caved in as all the bones there had been shattered. If it were not for the armor, Jianchen probably would have been cleaved in half.
Spurt! Jianchen vomited blood. His organs had been pulverized after blocking the combined attack from the two Holy Emperor. His wounds were much more severe than before.
At the same time, Nubis left the territory of the Serpent God Hall with Jianchen and Xie Wang. They arrived in the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall and did not stop at all. They continued to fly into the depths of the territory, disappearing into the horizon in the end.
The two elders of the Serpent God Hall stopped at the border of the two regions. They stared at Jianchen's group with reluctance. They did not dare to take a single step beyond the border.
