Chapter 3272: Reversing Death

The talisman that flew out from the Primeval Divine Hall shielded the last wisp of Jian Chen's soul.

Because the soul possessed a hint of Chaotic Force, it was much tougher, which was why it had managed to last momentarily before the Anatta Grand Exalt's powers.

Meanwhile, the Wind Venerable sealed up the space and ways there, severing all connections with the Anatta Grand Exalt. Even if the Anatta Grand Exalt tried to find out about the situation here, she would find nothing at all unless she destroyed the fetal membrane of the world.

Under the combined efforts of the Saint of Grand Clarity's talisman and the Wind Venerable, they had finally preserved the last wisp of Jian Chen's soul successfully while obscuring all of the heavenly secrets, without letting anyone know.

Jian Chen's body had already collapsed. His chaotic neidan was lost too, along with all of his cultivation.

However, as long as his soul remained, he would not perish completely.

At this moment, the talisman from the Saint of Grand Clarity burned away. As it burned, it shone with dazzling light, forming a defensive power that moved even the Wind Venerable.

"A talisman left behind by a past Grand Exalt. Jian Chen has actually obtained a fortune like this. Looks like he's destined to not die here," the Wind Venerable's voice rang out within the fetal membrane of the world. His illusionary face appeared there.

At this moment, he focused on the remaining part of Jian Chen's soul and could clearly see the soul space in there, as well as the ancient pact in his soul.

Apart from that, he saw seven specks of extremely dim light. Each speck represented an expert's imprint.

However, the Wind Venerable subconsciously ignored the seven imprints. He was not even interested in paying any closer attention to them.

"If it weren't for this talisman, probably even I would not have been able to do anything today. However, a sliver of power from a curse is actually mixed into this talisman."

The Wind Venerable gradually became stern. "This curse also comes from a Grand Exalt. If the power of the curse was separated from the power of the talisman, I could stuff it out effortlessly, but they're actually merged together. As the talisman's power guards Jian Chen's soul, the curse also eats away at it. It can't be removed by force at all, or Jian Chen's soul will also face damage."

The Wind Venerable's expression sank slightly. The curse from the Dao Union Saint was being transferred into Jian Chen's soul through the talisman, which he found extremely troublesome.

"I might have merged with the fetal membrane of the world, stepping into this realm at the cost of becoming an artifact, but my powers are also limited by the fetal membrane of the world."

"Now, I can only be considered to possess defences beyond other sovereigns, but I'll probably never be able to obtain what the other sovereigns are capable of."

"After all, the fetal membrane of the world is just an object. I am also just an object."

"However, while I might not possess what other Grand Exalts are capable of, I am also capable of things that other Grand Exalts can't even begin to imagine." With that, the space within the world membrane suddenly blurred. Everything in the surroundings vanished at that instant and the three thousand laws had been completely severed.

At that moment, it was as if the space enveloped by the world membrane had completely left the Saints' World. It seemed to manifest as a completely independent space under the powers of the world membrane.

In this space, there were not the three thousand laws from the Saints' World. There was only the great power that seemed to create the universe from the world membrane.

In the next moment, Jian Chen's collapsed flesh actually reappeared from space. Meanwhile, his soul that had been reduced to just a feeble wisp rapidly strengthened at a visible rate.

The Wind Venerable used the wondrous powers of the world membrane to reassemble the flesh and soul Jian Chen had lost to outer space.

This bore great resemblance to reversing the flow of time, to reversing death.

However, Jian Chen had perished under the power of a sovereign. Even truly reversing the flow of time was useless, interfered by a sovereign's power.

However, the world membrane was capable of that!

"You even split off a part of your soul. If you truly perished, the other part of your soul would have dissipated as well. If you survive, the other part of the soul will be safe and sound, so I can't let anyone find out about your other half either," the Wind Venerable said sternly. In the next moment, the power of the world membrane pierced through space, immediately crossing an extremely vast distance, enveloping the other part of Jian Chen's soul that had separated from him.

At that instant, the other half of his soul that possessed a body and was occupied by wickedness vanished. Obscured by the world membrane, it had completely vanished from the world, where all traces were erased. Even sovereigns would not be able to find it.

Very soon, under the assistance of the world membrane, Jian Chen's body completely recovered, except his presence had become much weaker. His strength had already plummeted from the sixteenth layer of the Chaotic Body to the fifteenth.

As for his soul, it had also fallen from the previous Fifth Heavenly Layer of Chaotic Prime to the First Heavenly Layer.

He had recovered under the power of the world membrane, but his strength had fallen drastically.

However, Jian Chen was completely unaware of that. His eyes were firmly shut, having fallen unconscious a long time ago.

"Jian Chen, this is all that I can do. You can only nullify the curse on the talisman yourself." The Wind Venerable sighed gently. He was slightly weary. In order to save Jian Chen, he had also paid a price. Facing off against the three sovereigns took a very great toll on the world membrane's powers.

"Wind Venerable, stop wasting your efforts. Anatta personally killed Jian Chen. Even if you've already reached this step, it's beyond your power to change anything." Outside, the Bloodtear Grand Exalt's voice rang out with mixed emotions from the cloud of blood.

Even now, he could recall everything that happened earlier like it was unfolding right before his eyes. He immediately developed a fear towards the Wind Venerable.

When he turned into the sea of blood before, his intentions were to trap the Wind Venerable, yet in the end, he was trapped by the Wind Venerable instead. The strength and flexibility of the world membrane was so great that even when he used his full strength, he was unable to break out of it.

That left him with an extremely heavy heart.

However, the Wind Venerable ignored the Bloodtear Grand Exalt, directly leaving by bursting through space, vanishing completely.

With the Wind Venerable's departure, this space finally returned to peace again. The peak experts gathered there all gazed at the space there with mixed feelings.

There was quite a lot of pity in the mix too.

"Sigh, the twin swords have probably ended up in the Wind Venerable's hands."

"Do you think the reason why the Wind Venerable saved Jian Chen was because he had ties with him, or was it because of the twin swords he possessed?"

"Sigh, just how old is Jian Chen? How can he be acquainted with the Wind Venerable? In my opinion, the Wind Venerable's attempt to save him was a ruse. He was actually after the twin swords. After all, the twin swords are no regular sovereign god artifacts. Once they're fused together, they can even slay sovereigns."

"That might actually be true. Don't forget about how the Wind Venerable has turned into an artifact now. His defences are basically beyond belief. Sovereigns might not be able to endure the backlash of fusing the swords, but the Wind Venerable will definitely be capable of that."

They communicated with one another secretly. They gathered here because they were tempted by the twin swords. Unfortunately, the Wind Venerable had taken the twin swords with him while they could only watch.

If the Wind Venerable had not taken that step yet, they could still put up a fight, but now that the Wind Venerable had already become a sovereign, they did not have the courage at all.
