Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2456: A Tremendous Amount of Resources

He had a total of three strands of Profound Sword Qi, so he was left with two after killing off the strongest elder. They were perfect for dealing with the remaining two elders.

Originally, he could have condensed a fourth strand of Profound Sword Qi after he became a Sword Immortal, but condensing it would take quite a lot of time. Years or even decades would pass for each strand. He had either been running around everywhere or trying to hide his identity ever since he emerged from the Neptunean Divine Palace, so he never had time to condense the fourth strand.

Even though there were only three strands of Profound Sword Qi, the power of each strand was not set in stone. As Jian Chen grew in strength, they would become more and more powerful as well.

As a result, after Jian Chen became a Sword Immortal, the might of the Profound Sword Qi had reached a whole new level. It could no longer be compared to the past.

The two remaining strands of Profound Sword Qi were ready to be used in Jian Chen’s soul.

However, an extremely astonishing pulse of power appeared in the distance at this moment. The space behind the two remaining elders shook as extremely powerful energy condensed into two inch-wide palms that directly crushed towards the elders.

These came from Xu Ran. Perhaps she had sensed the danger that Jian Chen was in, so she took the opportunity to attack the two elders as she controlled the Nine Tribulations Incineration Formation with her full strength.

The expressions of the two elders changed drastically when they faced this attack from a Chaotic Prime. They immediately poured all the energy within them into their defences as the power of laws revolved around them.

However, even if they did all that they could, it was futile before a Fifth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime’s attack. The difference in strength was just too great.

The two palm strikes condensed from energy tore through their defences in an unstoppable manner and landed on their bodies.

Spurt! Spurt!

Blood sprayed from the mouths of the Seventh and Eighth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes of the Gloomwater sect. They were sent flying like broken kites, heavily injured.

Xu Ran placed most of her focus on the Nine Tribulations Incineration Formation. The attack clearly did not possess her full strength, so they were only heavily injured and not killed off on the spot.

“Jian Chen, kill them quickly!” Xu Ran’s voice rang out. With that, the Nine Tribulations Incineration Formation that trapped the four great elders shook.

Jian Chen’s eyes became cold. He turned towards the elders who Xu Ran had knocked away, and with a thought, the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways in his left hand immediately flew out. As a streak of light, it shot towards the two elders with lightning speed under the control of his mind.

The two elders immediately resisted to the best of their ability, but they were heavily injured after taking on Xu Ran’s Fifth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime attack. Their strength had decreased drastically, as they were extremely frail. They could not even unleash half of their peak condition strength, so their arms were cut off after blocking a few attacks from Jian Chen.

At the last moment, Jian Chen’s eyes shone with powerful killing intent. The power of the Ultimate Way of the Sword combined with the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways. Under the control of his mind, the sword cut through their heads with resplendent starlight. With that, he had killed off the last two elders!

After a bitter battle spanning seven days and seven nights, the Infinite Prime elders of the Gloomwater sect, over forty in total, had either died or fled. Now, only the four Chaotic Prime great elders remained standing arduously.

Jian Chen did not lighten up at all after killing the Infinite Primes. This time, he had come to destroy the Gloomwater sect and avenge Kai Ya. As long as the Chaotic Primes remained alive, the Gloomwater sect would not have been destroyed.

The Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways hung over Jian Chen’s head with a dim glow. Jian Chen looked at the Nine Star Sword of Heavenly Ways in the distance. As he did that, he grabbed his severed right arm with his left arm and steadily brought it to his right shoulder. As his Chaotic Force circulated, he completely unleashed the regenerative powers of the Chaotic Body.

The stub remaining from his severed arm squirmed, and the crack between the limb and shoulder vanished at a visible rate. In just a few seconds, Jian Chen reconnected his right arm.

Of course, this reconnection was only a layer of skin at the very surface. He still needed some time before he could join the severed flesh and bone.

However, Jian Chen did not have enough time to heal his arm. He fell down from the sky. One by one, he removed the Space Rings from the Primordial realm experts he had killed.

Primordial realm experts, even if they were only Infinite Primes, possessed extremely astonishing wealth. There were over twenty Space Rings, and one of them even belonged to a Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime. It went without thinking just how astonishing the combined wealth in the Space Rings would be.

However, Jian Chen did not just collect the Space Ring. He stowed the corpses of the Primordial realm experts away as well. He did not miss a single one.

The corpses of Primordial realm experts were rare. They were the best nourishment for the Immortal Devouring Orchid.

“Hmm? Why is Jian Chen collecting their corpses? It makes sense for him to take their Space Rings, but it’s the first time I’ve seen someone take the corpses away as well…”

“Does Jian Chen plan on burying the dead elders for the Gloomwater sect? It looks like Jian Chen is a person with upstanding morals. Although he has grievances with the Gloomwater sect and has come to destroy them, he treats these dead elders with respect. He’s collecting the corpses for them so that they don’t have to tie a graveless death…”

…

Many people discussed Jian Chen’s actions. Many of the conversations indicated admiration towards Jian Chen.

Jian Chen ignored the conversations. After stowing away all the corpses of the Primordial realm experts, he looked in another direction in pity.

That was where the leader of the great elders, the Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime, had passed away.

He had been slain by the child from the Myriad Bone Guild. His body had exploded, and not even a corpse was left behind.

Jian Chen sighed gently inside. As he healed, he arrived beside the Nine Tribulations Incineration Formation.

Several Chaotic Primes were trapped in there.

“Senior Xu, let me help you out,” said Jian Chen.

“How are your wounds?” Xu Ran’s voice rang out from the Nine Tribulations Incineration Formation. She did not stay outside. Instead, she was in there dealing with the Chaotic Primes.

“It’s no big deal,” said Jian Chen. The Chaotic Body was simply too tough. Even if he were extremely heavily injured and could not use his right arm, his battle prowess was not affected much.

“Fantastic! I’ve already killed the early Chaotic Prime out of the four trapped in the formation. The three people remaining are at the Fourth, Fifth, and Eighth Heavenly Layer. Under the protection of the Eighth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime, it’s rather difficult for me to kill the other two.”

“Jian Chen, come control the Nine Tribulations Incineration Formation. I’ll use my full strength. Even if I have to get injured, I have to kill the Fourth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime. As long as one more of them dies, the effect from the formation will increase, and it’ll be even easier for me to deal with them,” Xu Ran said sternly.

“There’s no need to do that. Senior Xu, allow me to assist you in directly killing off the Eighth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime. Do it!” Jian Chen called out. His two remaining strands of Profound Sword Qi appeared together before shooting into the formation as a streak of light. They headed directly towards the Eighth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime.
