Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3813: Immortal Exalt Tan Yu in Danger



The terrifying pressure it gave off flooded the surroundings. Even some Immortal Exalts would feel overwhelmed.

“City lord, do you know this space beast?” Jian Chen said sternly. He could tell with a single glance that it was not some immortal or divine beast but a space beast that lived among the sea of stars.

There were many space beasts like this in both the Immortals’ World and the Saints’ World.

However, space beasts as powerful as the one right before them were rare.

“This Starflame Demon Lion appeared a million years ago. It wandered outer space and hunted Immortal Exalts everywhere, feeding off of them. It’s said that back then, there were over ten Immortal Exalts that died to it. The situation became so terrible that many Immortal Exalts lost the courage to venture into outer space, forced to travel using teleportation formations.”

“Afterwards, peak organisations from several heavens banded together. They assembled a total of five Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts. Under the lead of a Seventh Heavenly Layer expert, they hunted down the Starflame Demon Lion. After an intense battle, they slew the Starflame Demon Lion in outer space.”

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s eyes were filled with deep fear. “The Starflame Demon Lion back then was only a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, yet it required several times more experts than it to kill it successfully. This only indicated how powerful it was. I never imagined that it’s actually still alive.”

“Is it really the same one?” Jian Chen said sternly. With the current strength of the Divine Formation of the Heavens, even the formation would struggle to kill a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt Starflame Demon Lion.

“There’s a very slim chance that it isn’t. Finding a second Starflame Demon Lion that has reached such a cultivation is virtually impossible in outer space.” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu turned towards Jian Chen. He was unprecedentedly stern. “Not only is the Starflame Demon Lion extremely powerful, but it can even borrow power from the surrounding stars as it dwells in outer space, allowing it to move extremely quickly. Let alone the fact that we’re weaker than it, but even Immortal Exalts whose strength rivals it will struggle to escape unless they’re particularly fast. Fellow Yang Yutian, can the senior behind you deal with this Starflame Demon Lion?”

“That will be difficult.” Jian Chen also became stern. At this moment, he could already sense a great pressure from the surrounding space that made his bones creak.

The Starflame Demon Lion controlled the power in the surroundings to restrain him and Immortal Exalt Tan Yu.

At this moment, both Jian Chen and Immortal Exalt Tan Yu felt immobilised. Even lifting a finger seemed to take all of their strength.

“Looks like we’re done for today.” A hint of despair appeared in Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s eyes. He clearly gave up on fleeing before the Starflame Demon Lion.

Suddenly, a great power appeared. The colossal Starflame Demon Lion opened its mouth and sucked in.

A great restraining force appeared. Both Jian Chen and Immortal Exalt Tan Yu felt like the restraint over them had intensified by several fold. Jian Chen could still hold on due to the Chaotic Body, but Immortal Exalt Tan Yu began to ooze with blood from his pores, as his body was much more feeble. He became covered in blood in the blink of an eye.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu felt despair. “The Starflame Demon Lion only has its attention on me, as it only preys on Immortal Exalts. Fellow Yang Yutian, you haven’t reached Immortal Exalt, so you might still have a chance at survival.”

As soon as he said that, sharp sword Qi erupted from Immortal Exalt Tan Yu. At that moment, he glowed brightly, radiating with shining light.

Afterwards, all of the light contracted, turning into a glorious strand of sword Qi that suddenly slashed out.

Boom!

Under the slash, the space immediately let out a startling rumble. The Laws of the Sword of a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt surged forth like a volcano under pressure, blooming with the brilliance of a sun as it contended against the Starflame Demon Lion’s power.

The Starflame Demon Lion was extremely powerful, so powerful that it could already overwhelm Immortal Exalt Tan Yu. As a result, his attack stood no chance against the Starflame Demon Lion, but it could make the frozen space loosen slightly.

Using this opportunity, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu condensed great power in his hand before striking Jian Chen with it without hesitation.

Boom! With a bang, Jian Chen was knocked far away by Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, sending him out of this thickened region of space.

“Fellow Yang Yutian, if you manage to escape today, please pay a visit to the Immortal Rising City and let the eight clans know about my death-”

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu only managed to say that before the space he resided in suddenly vanished as if it had been swallowed. It turned into an eerie void.

Immortal Exalt Tan Yu and that entire region of space had been swallowed by the Starflame Demon Lion.

Despite his cultivation as a mighty Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, he could not put up any resistance against the Starflame Demon Lion.

In the distance, Jian Chen continued to fly away. The power behind Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s palm strike was far too great. It managed to injure him, but it also sent him away from the Starflame Demon Lion. As such, he escaped the fate of being swallowed.

At this moment, Jian Chen regained control over himself. He hovered in the distant space and stared at the region where Immortal Exalt Tan Yu vanished from. He was filled with extremely mixed feelings.

He had never imagined that Immortal Exalt Tan Yu would actually save him in a life-threatening situation.

Although being swallowed by the Starflame Demon Lion would not kill him, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s actions still touched Jian Chen deeply.

After all, he did not have any particularly deep ties with Immortal Exalt Tan Yu. Strictly speaking, the only reason why they were together was because their interests aligned.

After all, he needed the spot from the Skyscraping Sword Scripture that was in Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s possession to enter the Skyscraping World!

There was absolutely no need for Immortal Exalt Tan Yu to do this over such a flimsy relationship.

No wonder the eight clans of the Immortal Rising City are so loyal to you. Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, you truly are an exceptional person,” Jian Chen thought.

At this moment, a terrifying presence suddenly filled Jian Chen’s mind, which immediately made him tighten.

After swallowing Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, the Starflame Demon Lion turned its attention towards Jian Chen. There was gluttony in its eyes.

It was as if it still could not resist the temptation of eating Jian Chen even though he had yet to reach Immortal Exalt.

Jian Chen shivered inside. He used the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race to conceal all of his presence before activating the Divine Armour of Heavenflight. He disappeared from the space there, vanishing into nothingness.

The Starflame Demon Lion immediately lost track of Jian Chen. It constantly scanned the surrounding space with its huge eyes and sniffed around, wanting to capture his presence.

However, it found nothing even after searching for a good while.

After all, Jian Chen could even conceal himself from a few Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts when he used the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race combined with the Divine Armour of Heavenflight. Hiding from a space beast whose intelligence was limited was not an issue.

As a space beast, even if they possessed unparalleled strength, they would suffer from a problem that they could do nothing about—their limited intelligence. Most of them moved around based on instinct.

In the end, the Starflame Demon Lion shook its head and left the place.

After it had left, Jian Chen appeared silently in the distant sea of stars. He looked in the direction that the Starflame Demon Lion had disappeared in. His face was very ugly.

He had realised a severe issue. The Skyscraping Sword Scripture was on Immortal Exalt Tan Yu. Now that Immortal Exalt Tan Yu had been eaten, the Skyscraping Sword Scripture was lost as well.

He had lost his ticket to the Skyscraping World.

Thousand Soul Demon Exalt, Primeval artifact spirit, check if the current power of the Divine Formation of the Heavens can threaten Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts right now or not.” With a sunken face, Jian Chen immediately sent a wisp of the senses of his soul into the Primeval Divine Hall.
