Chapter 3547: Overwhelmed and Slain

However, elder Nong’s yell failed to stop Chen Shifang. Determination filled his eyes as the energy in his body surged furiously like the waves, rushing towards the old woman like a moth to a flame.

“Go, elder Nong! Don’t make me sacrifice myself for absolutely nothing!” Chen Shifang yelled out to elder Nong one last time. At that moment, he no longer cared about death. He would rather doom himself as long as it meant earning a chance at survival for elder Nong.

In the final moment of his life, Chen Shifang could not help but recall everything he had experienced in his life, but most of his memories paused on the time he spent in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.

The time he spent in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was only a very short period of his life, but that was the place that had changed his fate, as well as his warmest home.

“Over the years, I’ve considered going back and taking a look multiple times, but due to certain reasons, I never found the courage. Now that I’ve run into elder Nong and the danger from the Hefty Sword clan was resolved, I originally thought I could finally go back and take a look. Never did I think that I would be intercepted by Immortal Emperors. Looks like I’m fated to never set foot in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens again.” Chen Shifang was filled with regret.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Only a moment had passed before Chen Shifang approached the old woman with a violent and disorderly presence.

The old woman maintained a sneer, completely disregarding the fact that a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch was trying to detonate himself. However, the handkerchief in her hand turned into a shield several metres across in front of her, radiating with the presence of a high quality god artifact.

However, in the final moment before Chen Shifang was about to blow himself up, a hand silently extended out from the space there, pressing down on his shoulder gently.

Immediately, a terrifying power that Chen Shifang could not resist erupted from the hand. The power wormed into his body forcefully, suppressing him against his will.

Suppressed by the power, the violent presence from Chen Shifang quickly settled down. Even the chaotic energy in his body seemed to be sealed up.

In an instant, Chen Shifang’s attempt at self-destruction had been forcefully interrupted.

Chen Shifang was ashen. Self-destruction was the only thing he could think of to buy elder Nong some time now, yet in the end, he did not even possess the ability to blow himself up.

He looked backwards despairingly, only to see an armoured young man floating there. He was like a ghost, giving off no presence at all.

“There’s no need to detonate yourself. You can go and heal first. Leave the rest up to me,” the armoured young man said calmly.

Chen Shifang was stunned by that. He was puzzled.

Originally, he thought that the armoured young man was another expert who had come for their lives, but something sounded off from what he had said.

However, before Chen Shifang could think too much about it, the space around him changed. He had already been delivered to elder Nong’s side by the Laws of Space.

Elder Nong discovered Jian Chen as well. He stared at him blankly. His face was filled with disbelief.

“Why is it him? He’s actually an Immortal Emperor? H-how is this possible…” For a moment, elder Nong’s thoughts were a mess. His face changed again and again.

“Elder Nong, do you recognise this senior? Who is this senior?” Chen Shifang also realised that the expert who prevented him from blowing himself up was not an enemy. He asked elder Nong in complete surprise.

“H-he’s the young sect master of our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal.” Elder Nong’s expression was extremely mixed. The Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal young sect master had actually become an Immortal Emperor. Was this exactly good or bad?

“Young sect master? A Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal?” Chen Shifang was left in a daze. He looked at Jian Chen in the sky with a rather mixed expression.

A mighty Immortal Emperor had actually hidden his identity and disguised himself as a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal to become the young sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens? That truly set off a vast array of thoughts.

“Sir? Who are you? I’ll give you a word of advice. Don’t interfere with what’s happening here, just in case you create trouble for yourself.” The sewing old woman stared at Jian Chen sternly like she was facing a powerful opponent.

Jian Chen said nothing. Only sharp killing intent flashed through his eyes. With a wave of his hand, sword Qi enveloped the old woman as streams.

The old woman immediately became stern. She bellowed out and her tremendous cultivation as a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor immediately erupted. She channelled all of it into the handkerchief before her. Immediately, it erupted with light, blocking all of the sword Qi like a shield.

However, the sword Qi was anything but ordinary, far more powerful than elder Nong and Chen Shifang’s attacks. Under the waterfall-like barrage of sword Qi, her handkerchief immediately dimmed.

The old woman’s expression changed again and again. She realised she had encountered a powerful enemy, so she quickly formed a seal with her hand. The needle that pinned the stone golem to the ground turned into a glowing streak of white light, thrusting towards Jian Chen’s back with unbelievable speed.

Despite being extremely quick, the needle was still as slow as a snail before Jian Chen who had grasped the Laws of Space.

Jian Chen swung his hand and firmly caught the needle that was over a metre long. Afterwards, he gripped the eye of the needle and directly thrust it towards the old woman as a sword.

When he thrust out, the terrifying force in the needle even produced a pitch-black crack in the space there.

Down below, elder Nong and Chen Shifang backed up uncontrollably. Every single attack in a battle between Immortal Emperors was devastating. The shockwaves were so powerful that even Chen Shifang struggled to resist them.

The two of them looked at Jian Chen in a rather shaken manner. As Immortal Monarchs, they could not interfere with the battles between Immortal Emperors, but they could still tell that Jian Chen completely possessed the upper hand. As he struck out, his attacks were extremely sharp, basically completely overwhelming the Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor old woman as soon as they began fighting.

Boom!

At this moment, the destructive energy collapsed the space there with a deafening rumble, turning the sky into darkness.

The old woman’s handkerchief had been pierced by the needle in Jian Chen’s hand. Afterwards, the needle continued as a sword, penetrating her protective energy and directly plunging into her head.

Under Jian Chen’s attack, the old woman’s soul dispersed like a wisp of smoke. She was dead!

Elder Nong and Chen Shifang both narrowed their eyes at that sight. They were shocked.

A Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor had died just like this?

At this moment, there was another rumble. The Great Spatial Sword Formation had fallen, and the twenty small jade swords scattered in the surroundings dimly.

The two old women who played chess reappeared.

“And that’s all there is to the sword formation!” One of them laughed with contempt, but very soon, her laughter came to a halt. She stared blankly at the old woman who had been pierced through the head by her own god artifact.

“Big sis!”

In the next moment, the two old women let out grieving shrieks. Their eyes immediately became bloodshot, filled with killing intent.

“It’s your turn now!” Jian Chen looked at the two old women. He extended a finger. With that, a streak of light appeared over their heads instantly, slashing down swiftly.

The expressions of the two old women changed drastically. In a hurry, they drew their god artifacts to block, but with a rumble, they were swatted out of the sky with their god artifacts, producing two deep pits in the ground below. They were completely embedded in the ground, coughing up blood uncontrollably.

Jian Chen swept his finger through space, and the power of the laws of the world wove together. Shortly afterwards, two colossal strands of sword Qi appeared out of thin air, shooting into the pits below brilliantly.

Boom!

With a rumble, the ground shook; the mountains collapsed as if a megaquake had just occurred. The two Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors sank deeply into the ground and were heavily injured. They could no longer climb out of there.

“You may be Fifth and Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors, but your strength can only be considered inferior among those of the same level. You stand no chance at all.” Jian Chen shook his head gently. He suddenly reached into the space around him and forcefully dragged out two heads.

The heads belonged to the two Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor old women.
