Chapter 2541: The Heaven-linking Bridge

“Subject Jin!”

Tian Shang and the other subjects of the Cloudsurge Empire cried out. They became extremely pale as their faces became filled with fear.

Jin Yan was a Sixth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime, more powerful than any of them, yet he had been slain so quickly. This matter had quite an impact on them.

“Quick, run…”

“Enter the formation, quick…”

The subjects were all frantic. They cried out as they desperately scurried towards the imperial capital behind them.

Blade Demon did not continue fighting after killing Jin Yan. Demonic aura permeated his surroundings, only revealing a dark figure. His true appearance was concealed.

He hovered to the side of the divine hall like a demonic god as he stared at the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood up ahead coldly.

Xu Ran struck out once again. Brimming with killing intent, she directly targeted Tian Shang.

She had already received Jian Chen’s request to kill Tian Shang with everything that she had.

They needed Tian Shang’s blood to nullify Protector Xue’s venom, and the essence that Nubis had lost needed Tian Shang to make up for.

Tian Shang had become their greatest target.

“You’re dreaming if you want to kill me!” Tian Shang called out when he noticed Xu Ran charging towards him aggressively. Green, venomous mist immediately enveloped him.

Xu Ran’s hand struck the mist with terrifying might, causing the space there to collapse. However, Tian Shang had already vanished.

Tian Shang was extremely great at fleeing, not to mention that he was already ready to run. As a result, Xu Ran failed to even touch his clothes.

“Enter the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood if you want to kill me.” Tian Shang’s sneer rang out from the formation.

The formation had been personally cast down by the Rain Abbess. It was the Cloudsurge Empire’s final line of defence. All the experts of the Cloudsurge Empire held great confidence in the formation.

This was because the formation could not be destroyed as long as no one more powerful than the Rain Abbess appeared.

Xu Ran smiled mysterious as she looked at the formation before her. She murmured, “If you were outside, I really wouldn’t be able to kill you with your ability to escape, but now that you’ve entered the formation, your death has become set in stone.”

When Tian Shang fled, the four other subjects he had gathered scurried into the formation as well.

The Empyrean Demon Cult did not try to kill them off on the spot. After all, they were only attacking the Cloudsurge Empire this time for some items. They did not want to destroy the empire.

“Empyrean Demon Cult, our Cloudsurge Empire has always respected you and kept our distance, so why are you launching such a great attack against us?” A heavy voice rang out from within the formation.

This was the voice of the current emperor, Ye Yizhan. His voice was filled with uncontrollable fury.

No one answered Ye Yizhan. However, at this moment, a fist-sized bridge floated out from the divine hall. It was small but detailed, carved from some type of jade. It shone with rainbow light.

Ye Yizhan hovered above the imperial palace within the capital. Even though his expression was very ugly, he remained extremely composed inside. He was fearless.

With the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood, Ye Yizhan did not worry about the imperial capital falling to the Empyrean Demon Cult’s attack. The formation was extremely wondrous and possessed the power of the world. It was impenetrable.

However, when he saw the rainbow bridge that extended from the divine hall through the formation, he could no longer remain composed. His expression immediately changed drastically, and he cried out, “A Heaven-linking Bridge. It’s a Heaven-linking Bridge. The Empyrean Demon Cult has even forged a Heaven-linking Bridge…”

Many Primordial realm experts gathered around Ye Yizhan. When they heard that, their faces changed suddenly, becoming extremely ugly.

“A Heaven-linking Bridge. It’s actually a legendary Heaven-linking Bridge. It’s said that the Heaven-linking Bridge is the killer of all formations in the world. The bridge can bypass them all…”

“No, it can’t bypass all formations, only most of them. Heaven-linking Bridges are divided into various levels as well. The higher their level, the more powerful the formations that they can get through…”

“The Empyrean Demon Cult has drawn a Heaven-linking Bridge at this moment. C- can this Heaven-linking Bridge pass through the protective formation of our Cloudsurge Empire, the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood?”

“Impossible. The formation was personally cast down by the Rain Abbess, so it’s the best of the best. It’s impossible for the Empyrean Demon Cult’s Heaven-linking Bridge to be on a higher level than the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood.”

…

All the Primordial realm experts in the imperial palace were unsettled. Once they lost the protection of the formation, a bloody battle would unfold against the Empyrean Demon Cult.

At this moment, the bridge shone with a dazzling glow and became colossal in an instant. It was tens of thousand kilometres long, forming quite a shocking sight. It hung high in the sky like a bridge that was connected to heaven.

One side of the bridge hovered above the divine hall, while the other end directly pierced through the formation.

Immediately, the formation trembled. As if it was under the influence of some mysterious power, its operation became rather sluggish.

At the same time, all the people in the imperial capital saw the huge bridge worm its way through the formation like a huge dragon, landing on the ground heavily with a deep rumble. It caused the ground to shake.

All the experts in the imperial palace became extremely stern. The Heaven-linking Bridge actually managed to bypass the Formation of Cloudsurge and Rainflood. They all sensed an ill omen as a result.

“Everyone, prepare for battle! I’ve already contacted the ancestors, and they should return very soon. We only need to keep them busy until then,” called out the emperor of the Cloudsurge Empire, Ye Yizhan. The Heaven-linking Bridge was indestructible, so the entry of the Empyrean Demon Cult could not be stopped. They could only engage them in a bloody battle now.

Outside, the divine hall of the Empyrean Demon Cult had already flown onto the Heaven-linking Bridge, gradually approaching the formation.

Countless bolts of lightning appeared within the formation, shooting towards the divine hall as terrifying spears. At the same time, endless, torrential rain bombarded the divine hall destructively with the power of ways.

The formation launched brutal attacks. Every bolt of lightning and every droplet of rain was extremely terrifying. They possessed enough power to shake up the world, enough to easily kill some peak experts.

The attacks were endless, coming wave after wave to stop the divine hall’s advance.

The divine hall endured the attack of the storm as it slowly slid across the bridge. Its speed was limited.

If it were not for the fact that the divine hall was a high quality god artifact, it probably would have collapsed under the attacks of the formation already.

When the divine hall passed over Jin Yan’s corpse, a figure emerged from inside. He hid below it and landed on the ground silently, stowing Jin Yan’s severed corpse into his Space Ring.

The figure was Jian Chen.

“The corpse of a Sixth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime is great nourishment for the Immortal Devouring Orchid. It’s just a pity that his Space Ring is gone,” Jian Chen murmured. He carefully dodged the spatial cracks in the surroundings and charged back into the divine hall with a swish.
