Chapter 2598: Claiming the Life of a Grand Prime Instantly
“Greetings to first senior brother, second senior brother, and third senior brother. I came across trouble this time, so I could only trouble you,” Jian Chen said with his fist clasped. His gaze paused on Yue Chao. He discovered that Yu Chao had basically recovered from his wounds from the protector swords, so he immediately stopped worrying.
“Haha, we’re one big family, so how can you talk like we’re not? Moreover, out of the eight of us, eighth junior brother is the most outstanding. Who knows, maybe we’ll have to rely on you in the future,” Chu Jian laughed. He truly treated Jian Chen as family without any selfish intentions, much less deception.
The Grand Primes from the Four Symbols Alliance were stern. They had never thought that Jian Chen would be a member of the Martial Soul lineage. Now that the Martial Soul Mountain had come, they felt troubled.
Even though the Martial Soul lineage had no Grand Primes, they were significant. Anyone who knew a little about the Martial Soul lineage would always hold some fear towards them unless they had reached a terrifying level of cultivation where they had no need to fear anything.
“The Martial Soul lineage is known to be invincible among the same level of cultivation. Their battle prowess is extremely incredible. However, they’re only Chaotic Primes, and the difference between Chaotic Prime and Grand Prime is basically insurmountable. I refuse to believe that they can challenge Grand Primes as Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Primes.”
However, Gu Li from the Heavenquaking sect was not particularly wary of the Martial Soul lineage. He comprehended the Laws of Strength, making him one of the stronger experts at his level of cultivation.
He took a step forward. His eyes were cold, and his killing intent was sharp. The Laws of Strength in the surroundings revolved around him, filling his every muscle with destructive power. He could collapse space with the slightest movement.
“I am Gu Li of the Heavenquaking sect, and I would like to witness the so-called Martial Soul Force of the Martial Soul lineage. However, let me put it out there first. If you aren’t as powerful as you are rumoured to be, you can’t blame me if I accidentally crush one of you with my fist.” Gu Li sneered provokingly. Afterwards, he directly struck out. A fist tore through space with terrifying strength. It made the space there shudder and the stars shake.
He did not hold back with the punch. It was filled with killing intent.
“You’re only a Grand Prime who has comprehended the Laws of Strength, and you’re only at the First Heavenly Layer as well. Yet, you still challenge our Martial Soul lineage?” Chu Jian sneered in disdain. He looked at Gu Li, and powerful Martial Soul Force suddenly shot out. It was invisible and broke free from the restraints of time and space. It could overcome all obstructions, and it entered Gu Li’s soul the moment it shot out.
Immediately, Gu Li grunted. He staggered as the terrifying power in his punch rapidly dispersed. His face immediately became utterly pale.
His soul had been heavily injured. He endured a splitting pain, and it was as if his head was about to explode. He was in agony. The world spun around him.
Chu Jian was one of the three most powerful people from the Martial Soul lineage. His Martial Soul Force was extremely powerful. Regular Grand Primes really could not endure his Martial Soul Force.
“You’re a mere First Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, yet you’re still so arrogant. Killing you is too easy.” Chu Jian snorted coldly. He arrived before Gu Li with a flash and directly cut off Gu Li’s head with his sword.
Spurt!
Blood gushed out as a head was tossed into the sky. Gu Li basically failed to put up any defences at all. He had been beheaded in a single stroke by Chu Jian.
“Gu Li! Luo Mantian and He Yidao cried out. They paled in fright and immediately shot over in an attempt to save him.
Everything had happened far too quickly. They all failed to react in that split second, and Gu Li’s head was cut off. It was just far too shocking, far too unbelievable.
However, as long as a Grand Prime’s soul remained intact, they would not be dead. Gu Li’s head had only been cut off. His soul remained.
However, his soul still had not recovered from Chu Jian’s Martial Soul Force attack.
Swish!
With a flash, Chu Jian struck out a second time. The sharp tip of his sword stabbed into Gu Li’s forehead, piercing through it completely.
“Argh!” This time, Gu Li finally could not help but let out a miserable wail. This was a wail from his soul. After being stabbed by Chu Jian’s sword, his soul slowly dispersed.
The ancestor of the Heavenquaking sect, Gu Li, was dead!
The expressions of the Grand Primes from the Four Symbols Alliance all changed when they witnessed Gu Li’s death. All of them stood with their eyes widened as they stared at the dead soul on Chu Jian’s sword. They experienced emotional turmoil.
The lord of the Heaven’s Link Peak, Tong Wuming, Zhou Zhidao, and Lieyan Wuji were completely dumbfounded. They had been petrified.
That was a Grand Prime, an existence that stood at the apex of a plane. He could make the entire Cloud Plame tremble with just a stamp of his feet, yet he had just died like that!
They struggled to believe it.
At this moment, another two grunts rang out. They came from Luo Mantian and He Yidao.
The two of them wanted to save Gu Li. However, not only did they fail, they even froze up halfway. Their faces became ugly.
Hun Zang and Yue Chao attacked. They used Martial Soul Force to injure their souls. Afterwards, Hun Zang and Yue Chao flashed towards Luo Mantian and He Yidao at the same time.
They had completely understood the situation of the Cloud Plane through their short conversation with Jian Chen. They knew who the enemies were.
“What’re you staring for? Hurry up and stop them!” Gong Ji called out and took the initiative to provide support.
They had already lost Gu Li. Luo Mantian and He Yidao definitely could not die, or the Four Symbols Alliance would completely lose the advantage they had gained after so much difficulty.
And now that the Martial Soul lineage had appeared, they needed experts like Luo Mantian and He Yidao even more if they wanted to match up to the Four Symbols Alliance.
Boom!
With a deafening rumble, powerful energy swept through the stars as a storm. Gong Ji had already arrived beside Luo Mantian. She clashed with Hun Zang, preventing him from killing Luo Mantian.
Basically at the same time, Wu Lu arrived before He Yidao in a flash and clashed with Yue Chao. He called out at the same time, “People of the Martial Soul lineage, Jian Chen has offended the young star lord. He is someone that the young star lord wants dead. If you protect Jian Chen, that will be opposing the Star Brilliance Plane and the Nine Brilliance Star Lord. You need to think about the consequences.”
“Hahahaha, even if we had to oppose Grand Exalts and the entire Saints’ World, so what? Let alone the Nine Brilliance Star Lord. Our Martial Soul lineage does not fear death,” Chu Jian laughed fearlessly.
“Young star lord, we need to retreat.” The two Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime great elders from the Four Symbols Alliance were stern. They stood in front of the young star lord, protecting him as he backed away.
Weaker Chaotic Primes could not endure the shockwaves from battles between experts of such a level. The young star lord would have died long ago as a Godking if he did not have the protection of the two Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Primes.
