Chaotic Sword God

“You’re actually asking who I am? And who are you?” The Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt replied with a question.

“I am Clear and Cloudy of the Divine Sect of Ancient Souls. People call me the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy!” The Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy’s gaze was still fixed on the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt.

“Since you’ve stated your origins, I should return the favour too. Listen up. I am Eternal Peace. You can refer to me as the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt!” The Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt chuckled.

“The Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt? That can’t be right. In the entire Immortals’ World, there are only so many late Immortal Exalts. Every single one of them has made a name for themselves. However, there is no such Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt among these people,” the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy said sternly.

“Hahahaha, who said I’m from the Immortals’ World. I’m from the Saints’ World, so it’s perfectly normal if you haven’t heard of me before.” The Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt sneered.

“An expert of the Saints’ World?” The Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy’s gaze immediately sharpened. He glared at Jian Chen and said coldly, “Junior, how dare you collude with the Saints’ World. Don’t you know that our Immortals’ World has always been mortal enemies with the Saints’ World?”

“Where are you seeing that I’m colluding with the Saints’ World? Can’t you tell that they’re already completely subservient to me?” Jian Chen stared at the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy’s soul. This was the first time they had communicated since the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy had been suppressed.

“Hmph, how can you make an expert like the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt yield to you with your ant-like strength?” The Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy responded subconsciously, but he regretted that as soon as he said it. After all, he could see how both the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt and Su Le treated Jian Chen like he was their master.

However, he was unable to believe how supreme experts like the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt and Su Le would actually lower their heads to an ant.

Even if this ant had tremendous fortune, obtaining three sovereign god artifacts, that was not enough for late Immortal Exalts to yield to him.

“Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy, I’ll give you a choice. Yield to me and your life will be spared.” Jian Chen offered an olive branch to the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy.

“You want me to submit? Hahahaha, why don’t you take a good look at yourself first? I might as well tell you this. Even if I perish here, I will never submit to you.” The Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy’s laughter was rather mad. Afterwards, he sank into complete silence and no longer said anything.

Jian Chen was powerless. The Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy was different from the seven experts of the Saints’ World. For the sake of survival, the seven experts were willing to accept humiliation and were willing to cast aside their dignity. As long as they could survive, they were willing to do anything.

On the other hand, the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy was someone who would rather die than yield.

By now, the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt had already begun refining the sliver of soul that he had forcefully stripped from the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy. Even though this sliver was very weak, only equivalent to the strength of a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal, it was still highly beneficial to the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt with how feeble he was right now.

Su Le ventured forward. Her eyes shone greedily, also wanting a piece of this, but she was sternly warned by the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt. “Don’t touch. This wisp of his soul has yet to leave his main body completely. In your state, you will only face great danger if you touch it recklessly.”

When she heard that, Su Le quickly retreated, but she did not forget to remind him. “I helped out too. Don’t forget about my share.”

“Don’t worry, your share will be here.” The Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt was stern. A grindstone appeared between his hands. This was produced by his innate ability. As the grindstone spun, it ground away at the wisp of the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy’s soul again and again.

Jian Chen watched closely. He could clearly feel that with each grinding, the wisp of soul stripped from the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy became slightly clearer as if some of the impurities inside, or something else, had been slowly crushed and eliminated.

“Sigh, if I were in my peak condition, it would be nowhere near this troublesome. I’d just swallow him in a single gulp, but now, I’m forced to be careful.” The Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt sighed gently.

Very soon, the wisp of soul had been completely cleansed. It turned into a wisp of power of the soul, something akin to a puresoul, but it was still slightly lacklustre compared to a true puresoul.

The Eternal Peace Daemon Sovereign split the power of the soul into three portions. He kept one of the portions for himself before giving the second to Su Le.

“Sect master, this is yours.” With a wide smile, the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt offered the third portion to Jian Chen.

Jian Chen hesitated for a moment before absorbing it decisively. He immediately felt his soul grow by a negligible amount.

After all, it was only equivalent to the soul of a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal, and it had been split into three portions. That was obviously insignificant to Jian Chen now.

Jian Chen shut his eyes and savoured it closely. He furrowed his brows very soon. He had already detected a small issue hidden inside. The wisp of power he had just absorbed struggled to fuse with his soul perfectly. A gap between them existed, which required further refinement before he could turn it completely into his own power.

“It still can’t match a puresoul after all.” Jian Chen sighed inside. Shortly afterwards, he looked at Su Le and the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt. They had just finished absorbing their wisp of power as well. As if they had just eaten something highly nutritious, their feeble souls immediately strengthened substantially.

“Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! This is just too wonderful! Once we absorb Clear and Cloudy’s soul completely, we’ll definitely recover substantially.” After tasting the benefits, the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt was unable to hide his excitement. Su Le was elated as well. She could see the hope of recovery.

“Since this works, then you can recover together,” said Jian Chen. He awakened the five other slumbering souls. Before he had awakened the generals in the Primeval Divine Hall, he could not let the seven experts recover too much of their strength, just in case they escaped his control.

Immediately, the souls of Bai Jinchi, the Origin Composition Daemon Exalt, the Might Venerable, the Red Phosphor Grand Prime, and the Unparalleled Emperor all gathered over.

Apart from Bai Chijin and the Origin Composition Daemon Exalt, the five other people had all been Eighth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes during their peak.

“Eternal Peace, why didn’t you wake us up earlier if there was something so good? You’ve gone too far…”

“Eternal Peace, we all have to serve the sect master now. We’re all in one boat. You can’t be as selfish as you were before anymore…”

“To think you wanted to keep it all to yourself. If the sect master didn’t tell us, we wouldn’t have even known…”

The five souls all interjected one after another. Their eyes shone brightly, unable to hide their excitement.

Compared to the high spirits of the five souls, the Eternal Peace Daemon Exalt instead had a frown. Even just splitting the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy’s soul into two and sharing it with Su Le was insufficient. Now that five other people had appeared, there was even less to go around.

At the same time, the blurry face appeared again on the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy’s suppressed soul. He gazed at the seven souls deeply. He was unable to hide the shock in the depths of his eyes.

This time, the Ancestor of the Clear and Cloudy did not say anything just like before. He was very prideful.
