Chapter 1923: Sheng Luo’s Identity
“Jian Chen, don’t get carried away . After the battle, I swear I will make the Earth Spirit sect give you an explanation for what they have done . The matter at hand, however, is to stop the Empyrean Demon Cult . ”
“With the enemies right before us, we are in no shape to deal with troubles among ourselves . It will only create confusion, which will only be detrimental . ”
Just when Jian Chen was hesitating over whether to vent his anger on the other people from the Earth Spirit sect or not, he heard the divine king’s voice .
Jian Chen looked back and stared at the divine king, who was playing chess against Huai An . He could clearly sense two devastating energies clashing on the chessboard .
Jian Chen sucked in a deep breath and slowly dismissed his killing intent . He tried his best to calm down his anger as he thought to himself, “Your majesty, since you’ve already promised me that you’ll make the Earth Spirit sect provide me with a satisfying explanation, I’d like to see how they do that . I’ll let that woman live a few days longer for now . ”
In the end, Jian Chen did not end up turning on his allies . However, he firmly remembered the grievance he experienced today .
On the battlefield below, the war was extremely intense . Many Overgods had died, so there were even more casualties among the ordinary soldiers .
The ground had become scarlet red as far as the eye could see while corpses were littered across the ground . Blood formed streams as the smell of iron filled the air . Severed limbs covered the land, which formed an extremely horrific sight .
The three armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult relied on their formations, constructing each one from ten thousand people .
Thirty of these huge formations faced off against the huge armies of soldiers from the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian in an intense battle .
With over a hundred million soldiers, the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian possessed an absolute numerical advantage when faced against just three hundred thousand troops .
However, when the battle actually happened, it was one-sided .
It was not the huge armies of the Divine Kingdom of Pingtian that possessed the advantage but the armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult that only numbered three hundred thousand .
The three armies rampaged through the soldiers of the divine kingdom, encountering little resistance . Bodies were blown to pieces wherever they went as miserable cries constantly rang out, leaving behind a ground full of corpses .
Even though the armies of the divine kingdom also fell into formations, the ten-thousand-man formations of the Empyrean Demon Cult were on a completely different level .
Not to mention that just the individual strengths of the soldiers were on a completely different level .
Countless soldiers poured large quantities of divine crystals into the formations on the walls of the fortress, activating them all . They shot out beams of white light that crisscrossed with each other, constantly attacking the armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult .
Even though quite a few people had died to the formations of the fortress, the three armies of the Empyrean Demon Cult were still able to maintain their tremendous formations without them . Even though they became weaker, they were still invincible like before .
Sacredfeather, Houston, Rui Jin, Hong Lian, Hei Yu, as well as the Gods who came from the powerful clans of the provincial city gathered together . They looked after each other as they worked with many other Gods to stop a single ten-thousand-man formation .
Gods died at every moment . Even two Gods from the Dong’an province had passed away, while a few more were injured .
Sacredfeather and Houston displayed extraordinary strength . As late Gods, the battle prowess they displayed was no less than regular Overgods .
They played a crucial and decisive role in stopping a ten-thousand-man formation .
Rui Jin, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu all wore armor as they wielded saint artifacts, attacking as hard as they could . They displayed their strength without holding back at all, transforming into their original forms . A dragon and a phoenix worked together with an alligator .
However, even with that being the case, the three of them were heavily injured and covered in blood . They were covered in vicious wounds .
Even though Sacredfeather and Houston possessed extraordinary strength, they were unable to remain unscathed during such a large battle . They had also become heavily injured .
Suddenly, all the people in the ten-thousand-man formation poured their power together, creating a huge black spear . It radiated with a terrifying might as it shot towards Sacredfeather, who stood out the most .
Originally, the attacks from the ten-thousand-men formations were rather scattered . They would attack many targets at the same time, so the people on the divine kingdom’s side were just enough to fend them off .
However, now that the formation had suddenly gathered all its strength in one location and attacked a single person, its might was extremely terrifying . It had reached the peak of Overgod .
The black spear was enough to kill Overgods easily . Even a prodigy like Luo Yunfei would try to avoid being hit directly .
“Be careful!” Houston called out . The strike was just too terrifying . Sacredfeather was basically doomed if it struck him .
Sacredfeather also became extremely stern . He experienced a great sense of danger .
The attack had already locked onto his presence, so he was unable to avoid it at all .
“Hmph!”
At this moment, a cold voice rang out . Jian Chen, still bloodied, descended from the sky and stood before Sacredfeather . He directly threw his Startling Rainbow sword at the attack .
Swish!
The Startling Rainbow sword collided viciously against the black spear with devastating Chaotic Force while being covered by the Laws of the Sword .
With a boom, the black spear was reduced to pieces by the Startling Rainbow sword .
With a hand gesture, the Startling Rainbow sword flew back to Jian Chen’s hand as a streak of light . He wielded the sword as he radiated with terrifying battle intent as he directly charged at the ten-thousand-man formation .
“I have to destroy their formations, or there’ll be countless casualties on our side,” thought Jian Chen . The ten-thousand-man formations were just too powerful . Even prodigies like Luo Yunfei needed to work together to destroy them .
However, right now, all the Overgods on both sides were busy engaging in an intense battle . There was no one who could break free from their battle on the divine kingdom’s side .
Even if they could break free, the Overgods from the Empyrean Demon Cult would stop them .
Seeing how there was an Overgod who wanted to destroy the formations, some of the Overgods from the Empyrean Demon Cult wanted to stop him . However, when they saw it was Jian Chen, they immediately became timid, and they did not dare to charge up .
Even a few late Overgods were unwilling to try to stop Jian Chen . They just watched him attack the formation .
Sheng Luo stood towards the back of the battlefield . Across the great crowd of people, he stared at Jian Chen as he felt uneasy .
“I never thought I’d actually meet such a great prodigy on the Cloud Plane . He endured an attack equivalent to a Godking’s strike, yet he’s actually still so powerful,” Sheng Luo was secretly surprised . He was a supreme Overgod who had made it onto the Overgods’ Plaque, with his name clearly engraved on it, yet he discovered there was actually still quite a large difference between him and Jian Chen .
“This Jian Chen is still hiding some strength . You are nowhere close to being his opponent right now . Let’s go . This is the end of your training on the Cloud Plane . Let’s go check out some other planes . The other branches of our cult also have wars on other planes . ”
“It’s said that a supreme Overgod has appeared on the He Plane as well, and he’s five rankings higher than you on the Overgods’ Plaque . Fighting him should produce even more evident results in your training . ”
Silently, a middle-aged man in black clothes appeared beside Sheng Luo . He seemed quite dignified, but his appearance was extremely ordinary . He said these words to Sheng Luo indifferently .
“Are you saying that Jian Chen is not using his full strength right now?” Sheng Luo asked in surprise .
The middle-aged man nodded, “I only sensed his strength when he fended off the talisman earlier . That’s right, Jian Chen is extremely powerful . At the very least, he’s someone who can claim to be invincible among Overgods . There’s probably no one who can beat him as long as Godkings don’t appear . There’s quite a great difference between you and him . ” The middle-aged man paused there before continuing, “However, don’t become depressed . You can’t forget that you’re the grand elder’s disciple . With his nurturing and the resources of the Empyrean Demon Cult, your future is limitless . ”
“Moreover, the cultivation method you practise directly comes from the great elder . If you can reach the ninth layer on that, you’ll be able to match the current Jian Chen . ”
With that, Sheng Luo stared at Jian Chen as his eyes became filled with powerful battle intent . He said, “Jian Chen, I will remember you . I will fight against you again in the future . ”
