Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 2703 - A Mysterious Person



Chapter 2703: A Mysterious Person

Chu Jie, Kong Feiying, Zhao Wenbin, and the other prodigies who had absorbed a large quantity of the mist all became excited. The gloom on their faces was completely swept away, and they howled out in utter joy as if they had been given a second life. They began to gulp down the rain greedily.

“W- what did I do just then?”

“I actually attacked my own people. H- how did I end up doing something like that?”

The sacrificial soldiers who had returned to their senses were at a loss. They looked at the blood on their hands and recalled everything that they had done earlier. Their faces immediately paled.

They were only sacrificial soldiers raised by the clans. They knew the rules of the clans extremely well, so they understood the severity of their earlier crimes. They knew how heavy the consequences would be.

Not only would they be destined for death, but even their family and clans would face destruction.

“Young master, spare me, spare me. I had lost my mind earlier. I had no idea what I was doing at all…”

“Have mercy, young master. I had no choice either. I had completely lost control of myself…”

The sacrificial soldiers all began to beg and plead. They were not afraid of death because they could only live for another century at most. It was mostly because of the people they were attached to.

Some of them had families, wives, or clans. They had only committed themselves to such a reluctant cause because of their circumstances, selling themselves to the peak clans. They trapped themselves in slavery and were raised by the clans as sacrificial soldiers with Hundred Tribulations Godking Pills.

Jin Hong glanced past these sacrificial soldiers and hesitated slightly before telling the prodigies, “Since they’ve all recovered, reorganise your groups quickly. We can’t stay here. We have to leave as soon as possible.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Even if there are major matters that we need to attend to, we should put them aside and leave here first. The disturbance earlier was so great that it must have alarmed Life-devouring Beasts in the distance. There might be a great swarm of them hurrying over here right now. We need to go as quickly as possible.”

Everyone’s hearts tightened when that was mentioned. The prodigies said nothing more and immediately reorganised their groups before hurrying off.

However, after the lesson this time, no one dared to save energy anymore. They all cloaked themselves in energy to avoid the mist.

A hundred kilometres away, Jian Chen stood up on the back of the eagle. He extended his hand towards the direction of the distant group.

With that, space immediately distorted and droplets of rain a hundred kilometres away were retrieved using the Laws of Space, condensing into a thumb-sized bead of water that hovered above his hand.

Jian Chen’s eyes shone as his eyes became piercing. It seemed like he wanted to see through the droplet of water and learn the secrets that it was hiding.

However, he found nothing out of the ordinary. It was just normal rainwater. Jian Chen would have never believed that this rainwater could help the sacrificial soldiers recover.

According to his understanding, ordinary rain could do nothing to the mist.

“No, it’s not because of the rain,” a thought flashed through Jian Chen’s head. He could clearly sense that the rainwater he had gathered just now was slightly different from the rain that had helped the sacrificial soldiers return to their senses. They seemed to be two different substances.

Jian Chen extended his hand again. In order to get to the bottom of this, he could not care too much. He planned on retrieving the rainwater directly from the sacrificial soldiers.

Jian Chen suddenly began to fade. He became transparent, and his figure grew fainter and fainter. In just five seconds, he had vanished completely.

When he vanished, the eagle beneath him glanced backwards. There was some confusion within its dull eyes because it could sense that Jian Chen was still standing on it, except it could no longer see him.

Jian Chen had used the Laws of Space to meld into the space there. Afterwards, he arrived before a sacrificial soldier a hundred kilometres away. He gently brushed the sacrificial soldier’s shoulders with his hidden hand, and the rainwater on him immediately vanished, ending up with Jian Chen.

However, the moment the rainwater entered Jian Chen’s hands, he frowned.

After his soul had fused with a strand of true Chaotic Force, it was no longer the same as before. His senses were exceptionally sharp, allowing him to sense things that even experts stronger than him could not discover. He could clearly tell that the rainwater had undergone a slight change right before it ended up in his hands.

It felt like something within the rainwater had suddenly vanished.

“Just as I had suspected. The thing that made these people recover isn’t the rain but something within the rain. The rain is probably just a cover,” Jian Chen thought. This discovery shocked him. He could not help but wonder whether the rain had fallen naturally or if someone was behind it all.

However, what he did not understand was that if the rain was natural, why would there be such a coincidence? Why did the wondrous substance in the rain suddenly vanish when he wanted to inspect the rain? Moreover, why did it have to use the rain as a cover?

However, if this were all man-made, just who would possess the ability to fool his sense in the World of the Fallen Beast that only allowed those below a thousand years of age to enter?

If it were someone from the Darkstar race, the strongest would only be the Darkstar Emperor. Although he might not be the Darkstar Emperor’s opponent if they began fighting, Jian Chen was confident that the Darkstar Emperor would not be able to hide anything from him.

At that moment, Jian Chen remained standing where he was, deep in thought. Ideas constantly flashed through his head, and his expression varied as well. Only when the group had long departed the area did he leave, returning to the eagle.

After Jian Chen left, an illusionary figure suddenly appeared in the nearby forest. The figure was condensed from the power of the soul. It was only possible to roughly make out the outline of a man. He was slender, but his face was all a blur.

The illusionary man hovered in the air and looked in Jian Chen’s direction. He seemed to be able to see the figure that had returned to the back of the eagle a hundred kilometres away.

“Jian Chen, this saint has heard about you many times from Heartless. Now that I’ve seen you, you really might have some exceptional areas. After all, you’re able to sense what’s up with the rain. However, so what if you can do that? How would a mere Infinite Prime like you see through my methods when I personally take action?” The illusionary man murmured to himself as he stared at Jian Chen. There was admiration in his tone but scorn as well.

He seemed to be scornful towards Infinite Primes, completely looking down on them.

As for Jian Chen, he failed to sense anything the entire time. Even when he constantly enveloped the surrounding region with the senses of his soul, even when the illusionary man stood in that range, Jian Chen failed to discover him at all.

Afterwards, the illusionary man gazed in the direction of Jin Hong’s group again and murmured, “You may be weak, unable to create a single wave in the Saints’ World, but you have enough strength to be treated with precaution by the Darkstar race. The formations composed of the sacrificial soldiers can even unleash the strength of First or Second Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes. It’s enough to create a storm among the Darkstar race.”

“The great ceremony of the Darkstar race is about to begin. The ceremony cannot succeed. If it were just Jian Chen, I would still be a little worried, but with you, there’ll be an even greater chance at disrupting the ceremony.”
