Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3307: Ancestral Imprint

Right now, under the suppression of the Laws of Space, he could not even escape anymore.

Even with the ancestral imprint, it was useless.

After all, the ancestral imprint was only a shred of power from the sovereign god artifact. It could not even be considered as power, only presence.

Through the ancestral imprint, he could dominate experts of the same level, but there were still differences he could not make up for against rulers that were even stronger than that.

Not to mention the fact that the person he faced right now was no regular Chaotic Prime.

But at this moment, Jian Chen’s expression changed as he shook violently too. The Laws of Space he used right now had already surpassed the limits that his soul could withstand.

A tiny region he had repaired in his soul became covered with cracks again. He had only repaired it after so much difficulty through the Lifesoul Flowers and other heavenly resources he had consumed over the past few days. Afterwards, with heart-wrenching pain, the small part of his repaired soul actually shattered again.

The unbearable pain from the worsening injuries in his soul left Jian Chen pale. His body swayed as his vision blurred. The world spun around him as if he would faint at any moment.

The wounds to his soul were nowhere close to recovery. Now that he used so much of the Laws of Space against the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King, he immediately suffered from a backlash.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King only felt the pressure on him weaken. The restraint from the space around him immediately became countless times lighter. Without any hesitation, he spat out a mouthful of essence blood and quickly formed seals with his hands to use a secret technique during this rare moment, fleeing as quickly as he could.

In the next moment, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King broke free from the space there and fled from Sword Emperor city, appearing ten million kilometres away.

He had managed to escape, but the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King did not loosen up at all. He knew this distance was no different from a few inches away to an expert with the Laws of Space like Jian Chen.

He did not dare to idle around for even a moment, immediately rushing off into the distance as quickly as he could, scampering away like a tramp.

Meanwhile, Jian Chen’s face turned pale. He had already begun bleeding from all of his facial openings.

However, his gaze was extremely sharp. He slowly raised his right hand and reached into the space in front of him. Googlᴇ search (ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

The space before him immediately rippled like it had been agitated like water. Half of his arm vanished into it.

Ten million kilometres away from Sword Emperor city, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King moved with lightning speed over a barren grassland.

Suddenly, the space before him split open. A huge hand reached out, completely condensed from the Laws of Space. It shone with blinding light as sword Qi swept through the surroundings.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s expression changed drastically. He came to a screeching halt and immediately began to flee in the opposite direction without a moment of hesitation.

He had already become fear-stricken by the pressure of the Laws of Space from back then inside Sword Emperor city, basically unable to offer up any resistance at all. Since he knew Jian Chen was a ruler now, why would he still possess any fighting spirit?

But at this moment, Jian Chen’s hand opened, and the five huge fingers turned into five strands of startling sword Qi.

The sword Qi slashed down as the space split apart. Five pitch-black cracks stretched through the surroundings with earth-shaking might.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s expression changed drastically. At that moment, he felt that Jian Chen was even more terrifying than back then in the courtyard. He immediately raised his god artifact frantically to defend.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The medium quality god artifact in his hand blocked three of the sword Qi. With a deafening rumble, the god artifact shook violently, clearly having received some heavy strikes. The shockwave alone turned the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s clothes to tatters.

Afterwards, the fourth strand of sword Qi shot over, piercing his chest and tearing apart his organs.

The fifth strand of sword Qi flashed past his neck, beheading him. The residual sword intent rushed straight to his soul as if it wanted to kill him for good.

But at this moment, the ancestral imprint in his soul suddenly began to shine, emitting a hazy screen of light that defended the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s soul.

While the ancestral imprint managed to protect the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s soul at that critical moment, the imprint itself had been set flying by the sword Qi, leaving the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King.

However, as soon as the ancestral imprint flew out, a hand extended out from thin-air and caught it before vanishing again.

“This time is only a lesson. If it ever happens again, I’ll be sure to make you perish.”

Jian Chen’s voice rang out from the space there, the indifference containing bone-chilling coldness.

With that, the wild energy and laws in the chaotic space gradually settled down.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King did not perish. He quickly reconnected his head with his body. After that, his wounds rapidly recovered under the powerful regeneration that all Wood Spirits were endowed with.

Of course, only the surface of the wounds healed. He would not be able to recover from the heavy internal injuries in just a day or two.

“My ancestral imprint! My ancestral imprint…”

With his ancestral imprint taken away, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King became panic stricken. He was both worried and disappointed. At the same time, he was filled with a sense of coldness from having just evaded death.

He had already forgotten exactly how long it had been since he last experienced the threat of death, but at this moment, he could clearly sense exactly how close he was to it.

For a moment, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King became despondent. Everything that happened had quite a large impact on him. He stood there for quite a while before eventually letting out a great sigh, leaving there.

Compared to his lost ancestral imprint, he was already fortunate enough to survive.

Within the courtyard, Jian Chen slowly withdrew his hand, and the spatial barrier around the entire place vanished. Jian Chen released all of the Laws of Space he had used.

His battle against the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King had not been easy. He had also paid a certain price. Not only was he pale-white and bleeding from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears, but even his clothes had been completely dyed red by his blood.

He was completely blood-soaked and haggard in appearance.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King had not touched a hair on him. His injuries were all from triggering old wounds when he fought.

After all, he had not recovered from them, and he was nowhere close to his peak condition. He would obviously suffer a certain level of backlash if he used the powers of a Chaotic Prime at a time like this.

“Your wounds, master?” Xia Jianming stood behind Jian Chen. He was filled with worry.

Jian Chen waved his hand gently, his voice slightly feeble as he said, “I’m fine. Remember to gather as many Lifesoul Flowers as possible.”

“Thank you for your assistance, senior!”

At this moment, Bai Yurou, Chu Tianxing, and Bai Yueye also arrived before Jian Chen. They all demonstrated great respect, bowing deeply towards him.

The emotions that Chu Tianxing and Bai Yueye experienced were the most mixed out of all of them. As a matter of fact, even now, they had yet to completely recover from the drastic fluctuations in their emotions.

They were the people who had the most contact with Jian Chen, but they never thought that the troubled person they had saved from the belly of an ancient forest beast would actually be on par with heavenly kings.

Bai Yurou’s emotions were mixed as well. When she killed the Earthen Winged Beast in Death Valley and when she was faced with ancestor Yan’s ambush afterwards, it had all been a mysterious expert that helped her through the Laws of Space.

In the beginning, she still thought this had something to do with the Mayhemless Heavenly King, but she had never thought that the person who secretly helped her out had always been in their group.

Jian Chen raised his head slowly and glanced past the three of them. He smiled slightly. “You helped me in the past, so it’s time for me to help you. You can bring all of your clansmen here. As long as you remain in the courtyard, I’ll ensure your absolute safety.”

“We are unable to repay your kindness for saving us, senior. However, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King probably won’t spare us. If we remain here and the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King comes again, we’ll only create trouble for you, senior.” Bai Yurou was also filled with worry as she stared at the bloodied Jian Chen who bled from his eyes, nose, ears, and mouth.

Anyone with some wit to them could tell that Jian Chen had managed to repel the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King. He possessed battle prowess on par with heavenly kings, but he had also paid a tremendous price.

Not only was Bai Yurou worried, but even Xia Jianming was unsettled.

The Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King had been repelled, but they did not see him suffer any injuries.

On the other hand, they could tell with a single glance that Jian Chen was extremely heavily injured.
