Chapter 3588: Thirty Seconds

Basically all of the Immortal Emperors present felt envious of how Immortal Emperor Li Shan had ended up with Jian Chen as an opponent. After all, in their eyes, a mere Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor independent cultivator posed no threat at all.

As a matter of fact, it was no exaggeration at all to say that some of these people viewed someone like that as an ant.

All of them came from powerful backgrounds. Their foundations were extremely sturdy, and their methods were almost divine, well beyond anything that an independent cultivator could rival.

They did not even take Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor independent cultivators seriously, let alone those at the Sixth Heavenly Layer.

“Sigh, what is his luck?” Daoist Master Shangqing who frequently had conflicts with Immortal Emperor Li Shan sighed and shook his head.

“So these rings really are composed of multiple miniature worlds.” Jian Chen looked around in one of the rings and could not help but sigh.

He was currently in an extremely bleak world. The ground was covered with ditches and marks left behind by battle. As a matter of fact, there were even many fragments of god artifacts scattered in the surroundings and some fluid that shone with scarlet light.

That was the blood of Immortal Emperors. Some of it was left behind by the two prior battles. Jian Chen could even tell who their owners were from the presence in the blood.

Some of the other blood was dim and ancient, clearly having existed there for many years already.

“Not only are these miniature worlds expansive, but they’re even reinforced by the power of the Observance Heaven City as well, such that the space here is extremely tough. Let alone Immortal Emperors, even some regular Immortal Exalts will probably struggle to destroy the space here,” Jian Chen murmured to himself. He gained a deeper understanding once again about the Observance Heaven City’s strength.

“Hahahaha, fellow Chang Yang, you can go on ahead. In order to express my gratitude, I’ll give you half a minute. During those thirty seconds, you can hit me with whatever you want. I won’t dodge, nor will I fight back.” Several kilometres away, Immortal Emperor Li Shang stood with his arms crossed and his back straight. He seemed extremely valiant as he stared at Jian Chen confidently.

“You’ll let me have thirty seconds? Is that true? Surely you’re not going to change your mind halfway through?” Jian Chen looked at Immortal Emperor Li Shang rather strangely.

Immortal Emperor Li Shan smiled confidently. “I might not be a significant figure who stands at the apex on the Taiji Heaven, but I still possess some renown, so you have nothing to worry about. I will always stand by my word!”

“Half a minute? That’s not short. Fellow Li Shan, you better be careful then.” Jian Chen smiled mysteriously. In the next moment, a sword appeared in his hand.

This was a medium quality god artifact. It did not come from the Saints’ World. Instead, it was one of the many god artifacts that Jian Chen had obtained in the Immortals’ World.

When he first arrived in the Immortals’ World, he first destroyed the Immortal Sect of Luofu, the Immortal Sect of Yuqing, and the Immortal Sect of White Clouds.

Afterwards, when he was saving Chen Shifang on the way back from the Observance Heaven City, he had killed the three Immortal Emperors recruited by Xiang Shi.

After that, he destroyed the four organisations around the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder, and a group of experts from the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

As a result, Jian Chen currently possessed many God Tier pills and god artifacts of various grades.

The medium quality god artifact sword he wielded right now was one of his many spoils of battle.

The scorn in Immortal Emperor Li Shan’s eyes deepened when he saw how Jian Chen only took out a medium quality god artifact. He said in an unconcerned manner, “Fellow Chang Yang, the god artifact in your hand truly is not impressive. It might not even be able to penetrate my Divine Force of the Heavenly Shield.” With that, Immortal Emperor Li Shan erupted with the energy of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor, immediately forming a thick energy barrier around himself. It was like a colossal shield, enveloping his entire body.

The Divine Force of the Heavenly Shield was a secret technique grasped by Immortal Emperor Li Shan. It was renowned for its great defences.

On top of the Divine Force of the Heavenly Shield, there was a medium quality god artifact armour that covered Immortal Emperor Li Shan.

Immortal Emperor Li Shan was not without a high quality god artifact, but his high quality god artifact was offensive. When it came to his defences, he only had the medium quality god artifact armour on him.

And, after the two battles earlier, the medium quality god artifact armour on him had already become slightly damaged.

In the next moment, Jian Chen appeared before Immortal Emperor Li Shan instantly. His Chaotic Force erupted as the sword in his hand blazed with light, directly thrusting towards Immortal Emperor Li Shan.

“The Laws of the Sword and the Laws of Space? What a pity, your comprehension is a little too low.” Immortal Emperor Li Shan stood with his arms crossed. He was calm and composed. He actually did not try to dodge.

Boom!

With a deafening rumble, Jian Chen’s sword landed on Immortal Emperor Li Shan’s Divine Force of the Heavenly Shield, which made the energy dim rapidly. Powerful energy swept off into the surroundings, kicking up the sand and rocks while filling the air with dust.

“Chaotic Force? You actually cultivate Chaotic Force?” Immortal Emperor Li Shan’s expression changed slightly. Some of his contempt vanished as he said sternly, “Fellow Chang Yang, now this isn’t particularly nice of you. You actually didn’t tell me beforehand that you cultivate Chaotic Force. The strength of Chaotic Force far surpasses its cultivation level. Were you just out to deplete my energy with your attacks by staying silent the entire time?”

“And, cultivating Chaotic Force is difficult. The resources required are tremendous. Even some regular peak organisations can’t afford it and struggle to truly nurture someone who practises Chaotic Force, yet you were able to reach such a high cultivation. Your Chaotic Body can be considered as major achievement. Chang Yang, I refuse to believe that you’re an independent cultivator.”

“Immortal Emperor Li Shan, why should I tell you that I cultivate the Chaotic Body? Though, you’re welcome to go back on your promise of giving me thirty seconds at any time,” said Jian Chen.

Immortal Emperor Li Shan’s face was rather sunken. He ground his teeth. “Don’t worry, I’m a man of my word. Since it’s a promise I’ve made, I definitely won’t be going back on it. I’ll let you have thirty seconds. There won’t be a single second missing.”

“Then I won’t hold back. If you end up defeated, you better not blame me.” Jian Chen smiled gently.

“Hmph, I might not necessarily make it to the very end of the competition this time, but I definitely won’t lose to you,” Immortal Emperor Li Shan said coldly.

Jian Chen said nothing more. He swung his sword again and again, erupting with his Chaotic Force of the seventeenth layer without holding back at all. He struck with his full strength every single time, sending streaks of light towards Immortal Emperor Li Shan’s Divine Force of the Heavenly Shield mercilessly.

As soon as an attack ended, a second stroke followed closely.

His Laws of Space and Laws of the Sword merged together, so he moved extremely quickly, stroke after stroke. His attacks overlapped, basically filling the entire space there.

The Chaotic Force he cultivated provided him with endless power, seemingly limitless. It allowed Jian Chen to unleash hundreds of attacks in an extremely short amount of time and still be full of power, without any signs of exhaustion.

It had to be mentioned that Immortal Emperor Li Shan was truly extremely powerful. His energy alone had been forged to the point where it was extremely pure, far greater than regular Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors. He relied on the shield formed from his energy to block all of Jian Chen’s attacks.

Even when Jian Chen’s Chaotic Force was combined with the Laws of the Sword, he struggled to penetrate Immortal Emperor Li Shan’s protective energy.
