Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3244: The One Behind it All

Afterwards, he launched powerful attacks from a thousand kilometres away. Sword Qi criss-crossed outer space, combined with the Laws of Space. Terrifying pulses of energy filled the surroundings, collapsing large swathes of space.

Jian Chen unleashed attacks at full strength, assaulting the domain of ice from a thousand kilometres away. He erupted with all of his cultivation as a Chaotic Prime, leading to a colossal storm of energy.

However, without any exception, all of his attacks were frozen in space. Even his full-powered strike was unable to weaken the Laws of Ice around the Martial Soul Mountain even by a sliver.

The two energies were on completely different levels.

Jian Chen was helpless. He flew around Martial Soul Mountain a few times in an attempt to find an opening, but he found nothing in the end.

“First senior brother!”

“Second senior brother!”

……

…

“Fifth senior sister!”

Jian Chen shouted out from a distance. He was unable to enter the Martial Soul Mountain in any shape or form right now. He had no idea about the situation at the Martial Soul Mountain. He was completely uncertain about Hun Zang and everyone else’s fate either.

That gave him a great deal of anxiety.

“Eighth junior brother, eighth junior brother, is it you?”

“Eighth junior brother, are you outside?”

……

…

At this moment, a voice rang out through the thick ice from the depths of the Martial Soul Mountain.

Hun Zang, Chu Jian, Yue Chao, Yun Ziting, Su Qi, Bai Rufeng, and Qing Shan’s voices all rang out together.

However, apart from Hun Zang, Chu Jian, and Yue Chao who could project their voices clearly due to their powerful cultivations, the others’ voices became almost inaudible after emerging from the ice.

Their voices were like the most fantastic thing in the world in Jian Chen’s ears. His heart finally settled down.

At the very least, he knew his seniors from the Martial Soul lineage were all well.

Jian Chen and the people from the Martial Soul lineage communicated with one another from afar. The senses of their souls were unable to pass through the Laws of Ice, so they could only yell at each other from afar. It was an extremely arduous process.

Very soon, he learnt that everyone from the Martial Soul lineage was safe and sound. They had all hid in the depths of the Martial Soul Mountain and were unharmed. They were just trapped inside and unable to leave.

“First senior brother, how did this all happen? How did the Martial Soul Mountain become encased in ice? D-don’t tell me i-it was my sister who did it?” Jian Chen asked again. He felt very saddened and gloomy from this realisation.

“Hahaha, of course not. A small accident happened, that’s all. Don’t jump to conclusions, eighth junior brother.” Hun Zang’s voice rang out. He was completely unworried, talking freely.

As soon as Hun Zang finished what he was saying, the fifth senior sister Su Qi’s voice followed. “First senior brother, do you have to hide this? Right now, there are such powerful Laws of Ice gathered around our Martial Soul Mountain. Do you really think our junior brother won’t guess it?”

Su Qi was clearly slightly displeased. She felt extremely aggrieved. She yelled to Jian Chen outside, “Junior brother, you’ve guessed correctly. Our Martial Soul Mountain was indeed sealed in ice by the Snow Goddess, so your sister. She even declared that she would seal us for ten thousand years.”

“Hehe, the reason that the Snow Goddess gave for sealing us in ice was utterly hilarious too, just because our Martial Soul lineage interfered with her business.”

As soon as she mentioned that, Su Qi became extremely angry. She found this all to be utterly unfair.

“Fifth junior sister, don’t put it like that.” Hun Zang’s voice rang out inside the Martial Soul Mountain.

“Hmph, that’s the exact way I’m going to put it. We helped her. Not only is she ungrateful, but she even turned against us, trapping us in here. What’s that supposed to mean?”

An argument immediately began inside the Martial Soul Mountains.

Jian Chen hovered in outer space, moving with the Martial Soul Mountain while maintaining his distance. He was gloomy. His eyes were filled with undisguised sorrow.

The elder sister that he knew definitely was not someone like that. She would never do something like that either.

Only the Snow Goddess could do something so cold and heartless.

The elder sister he knew, the gentle figure who remained in his memories, was already long gone. She would probably never return again.

Jian Chen found that difficult to accept. It sliced away at his heart, causing him great pain.

In particular, when he gazed at the Martial Soul Mountain that was already sealed in thick ice, he was overcome with a sense of deep guilt.

Hun Zang and the others were safe and sound, but they were no longer able to move around freely.

Due to his own selfish reasons, all of his seniors from the Martial Soul Mountain were trapped in there, unable to leave. Jian Chen was racked with self-blame.

“I’ll go to the Ice Pole Plane and find her!” Jian Chen was frantic, ready to take immediate action.

“Don’t go, junior brother. You must never go to the Ice Pole Plane. The Snow Goddess right now is no longer the elder sister you remember. If you go, you might not necessarily be able to return. And, there’s something that I need your help with.” Hun Zang immediately stopped Jian Chen. His solemn voice was filled with a sense of urgency.

Jian Chen froze up. He was conflicted. A while later, he let out a gentle sigh and sat down powerlessly in outer space, gazing at the Martial Soul Mountain in a daze.

The Martial Soul Mountain was indeed sealed in ice, reduced to colossal ice mountain, but it continued along a special trajectory, floating aimlessly through outer space.

The Laws of Ice left here by the Snow Goddess accompanied the Martial Soul Mountain the entire time, so no matter where it drifted to, it could not avoid the fate of being sealed in ice.

Jian Chen sat in outer space as the Laws of Space rippled around him. He did not have to move himself. The Laws of Space would keep him close to the Martial Soul Mountain at all times.

At this moment, he could not help but recall the sight when the Martial Soul Mountain contended against the three thousand ways. His eyes immediately narrowed slightly.

He discovered that the Martial Soul Mountain before him possessed a very great difference to the Martial Soul Mountain he had seen from the artifact spirit of the Tower of Radiance.

The Martial Soul Mountain before him was visibly larger than the sacred mountain in the artifact spirit’s memories.

“It’s the rock. The Martial Soul Mountain right now clearly possesses an additional layer of thick rock compared to the sacred mountain of the past. Beneath the rock is the true Martial Soul Mountain, the sacred mountain of the past.”

“The Laws of Ice have only sealed the thick rock layer around the Martial Soul Mountain. However, even if it only seals the outer layer, it can still trap the people inside.”

“My senior brothers and sisters should be located in the true Martial Soul Mountain,” Jian Chen thought. However, he understood that that could not be regarded as the true centre of the Martial Soul Mountain.

Even with the Martial Soul Great Exalt’s strength, he could not enter the central grounds hidden even deeper freely. He required the combined efforts of all the successors each time.

When he made his way over this time, Jian Chen originally wanted to tell his senior brothers and sisters about everything he learnt about the Martial Soul lineage.

But given the current circumstances, the Martial Soul Mountain was sealed in ice and even basic communication was extremely difficult between them. He obviously could not tell them those secrets right now.

“Eighth junior brother, you don’t have to worry about us. We’re all very well. It’s nothing more than staying here and cultivating for a little longer, that’s all. However, there is something that I hope you can help me with. Could you visit the Delight Plane and check on the Rain Abbess for me?”

“Since the Snow Goddess has visited our Martial Soul Mountain, the Rain Abbess obviously won’t be spared either.” Hun Zang was filled with worry when he mentioned that.
