Chapter 2612 - Before the Final Battle

Chapter 2612: Before the Final Battle

The spatial crack where Chu Jian and Luo Mantian fought had not closed up, so all the peak experts saw exactly what happened in there.

As a result, when the Grand Primes from both alliances saw Luo Mantian die, they were all shocked. They were thrown into emotional turmoil.

Although two Grand Primes had died in the battle before, they were only First Heavenly Layer Grand Primes. Zheng Hu, in particular, had only reached Grand Prime recently, making him one of the weakest existences present.

Luo Mantian was a reliable expert who had become a Grand Prime many years ago. He had reached the Second Heavenly Layer. His death naturally caused quite the impact to everyone.

“Luo Mantian is actually dead…” He Yidao, who had betrayed the Righteous Alliance with Luo Mantian, experienced strewn feelings. There was some sorrow.

“In just half a month after leaving the Righteous Alliance, Gu Li died first, and then Luo Mantian now. The Righteous Alliance, which should have been destroyed, already instead possesses the absolute advantage now. Was our choice back then really wrong?” He Yidao’s heart weighed heavily. This was the first time he had begun to regret their betrayal.

However, when he saw the young star lord below, he could not help but calm down. He thought, “So what if Jian Chen has the support of the Martial Soul lineage? Behind us is the young star lord who represents the Star Brilliance Plane. The young star lord still hasn’t done anything right now, so he’s probably preparing something. I believe it will be shocking the moment the young star lord takes action. He’ll be able to turn the situation around in a single stroke.”

Chu Jian had already emerged from the spatial crack with Luo Mantian’s corpse, returning to the battlefield. He knew Jian Chen required a large number of corpses, so he just tossed the corpse onto the mountain soul.

Jian Chen rejoiced on the mountain soul. He caught Luo Mantian’s corpse with surging emotions. He now possessed three Grand Prime corpses.

They came from Zheng Hu, Gu Li, and Luo Mantian.

Chu Jian did not take Luo Mantian’s Space Ring. The successors of the Martial Soul lineage all knew that it was very difficult for the wealth of these weaker Grand Primes to interest Hun Zang, Chu Jian, and Yue Chao. As a result, he left everything in the Space Ring to the five of them to share and divide.

However, it was not the time to check the contents of the Space Ring. Jian Chen stowed Luo Mantian’s corpse away before falling into formation again.

“This time, let’s kill He Yidao. None of those who had betrayed the Righteous Alliance can be spared,” said Jian Chen as he stared coldly at He Yidao as he fought against Zhou Zhidao.

He Yidao and Zhou Zhidao were both First Heavenly Layer Grand Primes, so they were equally matched. They could do nothing to each other.

However, when Jian Chen looked at He Yidao, He Yidao sensed it. He made eye contact with Jian Chen from afar. When he saw the coldness in Jian Chen’s eyes, his heart immediately shivered. He knew he had become the next target.

The deaths of Zheng Hu, Gu Li, and Luo Mantian had an extremely great impact on He Yidao such that his fear towards the Martial Soul lineage had reached an absolute maximum. As a result, when he sensed Jian Chen’s gaze, he did not hesitate at all. He immediately abandoned Zhou Zhidao, turning around to flee.

Grand Primes moved extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, He Yidao vanished from outer space, returning to the protective formations of the Four Symbols Alliance.

The protective formation could hide anything, whether it be presence or the scenery inside, from the outside. As a result, as soon as he entered the protective formation, it was impossible to find a target even if members of the Martial Soul lineage wanted to launch attacks with Martial Soul Force.

“Retreat!”

He Yidao’s flight was followed up with an order from the Gentle Breeze Ancestor. They were never the Martial Soul lineage’s opponent. Now that Luo Mantian had died and He Yidao had fled, their opponents had freed up two more people. If they kept on fighting, their defeat would only come faster.

At that moment, the Grand Primes of the Four Symbols Alliance all vanished from outer space. They returned to the protective formations.

“God dammit. Martial Soul Force is just too hard to guard against. The power of my soul drains at an exorbitant rate when I fight against a member of the Martial Soul lineage. My soul has to get shaken up from time to time as well,” Gong Ji said with a pale face as soon as she returned to the protective formations. Her face was extremely sunken and had a sliver of exhaustion. “It’s detestable. I’m a mighty Second Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, yet I’ve been reduced to such a sorry shape by a Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime kid. Something as strange as the Martial Soul lineage shouldn’t exist in the world.”

“Luo Mantian died so quickly. We really don’t have any chance at victory now.” The Gentle Breeze Ancestor sighed gently. He was solemn. The Martial Soul lineage was just too powerful. They only had three Ninth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Primes, yet they beat up the Grand Primes of the Four Symbols Alliance into such sorry shapes. It embittered the Gentle Breeze Ancestor.

“Where is Jian Chen? Why hasn’t Jian Chen come out? Didn’t I tell you to draw out Jian Chen? There’s so many of you, yet you can’t even complete such a small task,” the young star lord arrived with an ugly expression as he scolded them.

The young star lord was extremely impatient about killing Jian Chen. Now that he had finally obtained a trump card that could kill Jian Chen, he was unwilling to wait a second longer.

According to his belief, after he used the Heavenly King of Azure Brilliance’s feather to kill Jian Chen, there would still be some spare power that could slaughter the Martial Soul lineage. He believed that as soon as he used the feather, he would instantly turn the tables for the Four Symbols Alliance.

“This feather is my greatest trump card for killing Jian Chen, so I can’t reveal it beforehand. Otherwise, once Jian Chen becomes wary, success will be difficult.” The young star lord was extremely vexed.

Boom!

At this moment, a deafening rumble rang out. The earth shook and so did the protective formation around the Four Symbols Alliance. It exploded with dazzling light.

After that, booms constantly rang out. It became more powerful and terrifying with each coming boom. Just the sound itself was devastating.

“Oh no, the Righteous Alliance has begun attacking.” The expressions of the experts from the Four Symbols Alliance changed.

Energy surged and light filled the air outside the formation. The entire Cloud Plane was affected, alarming countless people.

All the elite experts of the Tong family, Cosmic sect, and Firegod clan had fallen into formations. Under the orders of their ancestors, they used up as much energy as they needed to launch forceful attacks at the protective barrier of the Four Symbols Alliance.

Even the ancestors had taken action. Tong Wuming, Zhou Zhidao, and Lieyan Wuji all wielded god artifacts, radiating with alarming power. They attacked the formation as well, where every single move and strike was devastating. They caused space to sink.

As Luo Mantian had died in the battle before, the Four Symbols Alliance’s power had decreased again. As a result, the difference between the two sides had widened once more, which was why the three Grand Primes no longer cared about wasting some energy.

With the assistance of the Martial Soul lineage, there was no chance for the Four Symbols Alliance to achieve victory even if the three of them did not fight.

The members of the Martial Soul lineage returned to the Martial Soul Mountain. They used the same method as before, drawing out the power of the mountain soul to waste away the energy of the formation in the least costly manner.

Immediately, the three Grand Primes and all the Chaotic Primes, Infinite Primes, and Godhood cultivators from the three organizations launched a relentless barrage of attacks. The power of the protective formations of the Four Symbols Alliance depleted at an unbelievable rate.
