Chapter 3057 – Breaking Out of the Heavenly Dragon Prison
“You came at just the right time. Even if you hadn’t shown up, I’d have come looking for you.”
Dragon Shisan narrowed his eyes and stared fixedly at the Second Palace Lord standing at the entrance of the seventeenth-floor hell. Theirs was a mortal feud that could not exist under the same sky.
“A defeated foe. I was almost done. What a pity. It’s all because of that bastard Jiang Chen. Otherwise you’d have become my pet any moment now. Sigh.”
The Second Palace Lord glanced at Dragon Shisan and said with a sigh.
“Dream on, dog thief. Today I, Dragon Shisan, will definitely cut you down to avenge my blood feud.”
Dragon Shisan said in a deep voice. The moment he saw the Second Palace Lord again, the fury in his eyes had already shot up to the Nine Heavens.
“You overestimate yourself. Hmph. The Profound Connection Divine Palace gave you such a good opportunity, and you didn’t even spare the Third Elder. If I hadn’t already laid an inescapable net, you might really have gotten away.”
The Second Palace Lord snorted coldly.
“You killed the Third Elder? Then how did you find out about all this?”
Jiang Chen frowned deeply.
“Because I’m still alive.”
Shangguan Yanyun’s figure stepped out from behind the Second Palace Lord. Jiang Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. So it was this guy.
“Didn’t expect that, did you? In the Great Emperor’s Tomb, I didn’t die. I was sucked into an absolute space.”
Shangguan Yanyun said proudly.
“What about Sheng Kun?”
Jiang Chen said.
“A useless man like that had already fallen under your control, just like the Third Elder. What use was there in keeping him?”
The Second Palace Lord said indifferently, his eyes full of disdain and coldness. Jiang Chen was now a turtle in a jar. He had set up a great formation precisely to seal Jiang Chen and wait for him to walk into the trap. It seemed he had bet right.
“What a fine plan. But do you think that’s enough to make us brothers give in? You’re far too naive, Second Palace Lord.”
Jiang Chen said coldly.
“A mere Hierarch dares to oppose me? It seems you’ve really eaten a bear’s heart and a leopard’s gall. Crushing you is as easy as crushing an ant.”
The Second Palace Lord glanced at Bai Yun and continued:
“Little Bai Yun, are you going to oppose me too? Big Brother didn’t bring you back back then so that you could betray the Profound Connection Divine Palace.”
“I don’t care. Wherever Brother Thirteen is, that’s where I’ll be.”
Bai Yun snorted coldly, her face full of indignation.
“Fine, fine, fine. In that case, I’ll send all of you to hell together.”
The Second Palace Lord roared furiously, his face turning completely dark. To kill Jiang Chen, this unknown Outer Palace disciple, he, a Palace Lord, had gone to great lengths.
“Hunyuan Limitless Formation! Activate!”
The Second Palace Lord said coldly. At this moment, the seventeenth floor of the entire Heavenly Dragon Prison was completely sealed. Along with the endless flames of the Earthly Fire Hell, the Hunyuan Limitless Formation activated in an instant and trapped Jiang Chen, Dragon Shisan and the others inside.
“In forty-nine days, anyone inside the Hunyuan Limitless Formation will be completely refined by the flames of the Earthly Fire Hell. The fire of chaos is born from the limitless. You’ll die a miserable, ugly death. Hahaha.”
Seeing the furious eyes of Dragon Shisan and Jiang Chen, the smile at the corner of the Second Palace Lord’s mouth only grew more excited. This conceited Outer Palace disciple Jiang Chen had dared to provoke even his authority. He had never tolerated defiance, and he naturally would not let anyone who dared provoke him off. Moreover, these two guys were actually sworn brothers, which surprised him quite a bit. But if he was going to kill, he would kill them together. In his view, it was no loss. However, killing this Ling Ming Stone Monkey would be extremely difficult.
In forty-nine days, the formation would at most refine that human. It might not completely refine the Ling Ming Stone Monkey. By then, even if he was still alive, he would be at the end of his strength, just right for the Second Palace Lord to subdue him. At that moment, his own strength would rise yet again. The Ling Ming Stone Monkey, as one of the Four Dimitrios Monkeys, was even superior to the ancient divine beasts, the dragon, the phoenix and the Black Tortoise. It leapt out of the Three Realms and was not bound by the Five Elements. Such spirit beasts, beyond even divine beasts, had only appeared once or twice throughout history. Now that he had obtained one, even surpassing Big Brother in the future might not be difficult.
“What a terrifying formation!”
Dragon Shisan narrowed his eyes. He knew nothing at all about formations. Whether they could break it depended on Jiang Chen.
“Aren’t you a little too proud and confident? A mere fire formation, and you think it can trap us?”
Jiang Chen did not think much of it. Although the Hunyuan Limitless Formation looked extremely terrifying, and at least a Half-step Divine Emperor expert would be needed to have any hope of breaking it, for him it was a piece of cake.
Jiang Chen’s eyes moved. A corner of the No Beginning Formation in his mind began to deduce the Hunyuan Limitless Formation continuously. Invisible flames erupted inside the Hunyuan Limitless Formation. They were formed from the flames of the Earthly Fire Hell of the seventeenth floor and were quite terrifying.
“That depends on whether you have the ability. Arrogant, conceited, talking big.”
The Second Palace Lord did not believe Jiang Chen could really break the formation. Calling his formation worthless, was he trying to mock him? Not knowing he was on the verge of death, that was the saddest thing of all.
“How long will it take?”
Dragon Shisan glanced at Jiang Chen and asked. He believed Little Chen could definitely break the formation.
“About the time it takes an incense stick to burn.”
Jiang Chen said. Conservatively speaking, breaking this Hunyuan Limitless Formation within the time of one incense stick would be no problem.
Sure enough, after only about half an incense stick, the Hunyuan Limitless Formation began showing signs of disorder. At this moment, the Second Palace Lord’s face finally turned grave. The Hunyuan Limitless Formation had been left behind by his Big Brother and was extremely powerful. Even if he wanted to break it himself, it would take at least a hundred years, and he might not get out unscathed. Yet this guy had opened up gaps in the Hunyuan Limitless Formation in just half an incense stick. It was even tottering and could collapse at any moment!
“Damn it, he really broke the formation! This guy is truly bizarre.”
The Second Palace Lord knew that his Hunyuan Limitless Formation could no longer do anything to Jiang Chen and Dragon Shisan. Now it seemed he could only act himself.
“Break!”
Jiang Chen tapped lightly with his fingertip, as if it were nothing. The Hunyuan Limitless Formation that had been covering their heads faded away like ripples on water and turned to nothing. Jiang Chen had broken the Hunyuan Limitless Formation with ease, and the Second Palace Lord’s face looked quite ugly.
Jiang Chen, Dragon Shisan and Bai Yun turned into three streaks of light and quickly charged out of the Heavenly Dragon Prison.
“It seems I can’t suppress you unless I do it myself.”
Many of the people cultivating in the Heavenly Dragon Prison and the Heavenly Dragon Tower were shocked. At this moment, they were all watching this scene. Jiang Chen’s return shook them greatly.
“Jiang Chen! It’s Jiang Chen, he’s finally back.”
“Yes, the number one genius of the Outer Palace has actually broken through to the Hierarch Realm now. He really can’t be underestimated.”
