Chapter 3003 - Seven Stone Dragons
Bing Yun was trying to keep calm. Her spirit was always purest and innocent as she was raised in the cold pond and had been practising spiritual cultivation her whole life. She had no desire and there was nothing she was seeking for during her lifetime. Since the strength of her soul was stronger than Xue Liang and she knew something about this Green Cloud Barrier before, she was able to stay focused and remain calm even at this moment. Perhaps even the Third Elder could not get rid of it immediately. Besides Jiang Chen,Bing Yun was probably the first person who could clear up the fog and come out of the Green Cloud Barrier within a short period of time.
“Brother Bai......”
Bing Yun exclaimed in shock. She was going to save Xue Liang but Jiang Chen reached out to stop her.
“If he can’t break through the hallucinatory formation, that means his Soul Realm is not steady enough. But if he could get rid of it, that would indicate that his soul was extraordinarily formidable and unbeatable. It will be a great chance for him to prove himself.”
Jiang Chen said with a serious face. Bing Yun was still skeptical and doubtful but she believed that Jiang Chen would not do Xue Lang any harm as Jiang Chen was his Brother Bai’s best friend.
“I will definitely save him at the critical moment.”
Jiang Chen went on. He was afraid that Bing Yun would waste such a golden opportunity.
Bing Yun was slightly startled. Even though Jiang Chen’s strength was not comparable to his Brother Bai, he was not affected by the Green Cloud Barrier. He was way stronger than what she had expected, and mysterious at the same time. Although Brother Bai was a Hierarch Realm expert, his strength was slightly inferior to Jiang Chen. It seemed like this guy was truly talented.
At the same time, the Third Elder, Dou Tianhuang and the others were trapped by the Green Cloud Barrier. It was due to their strong dedication and determination. Both of them had coveted the treasures and the Great Emperor’s tomb.
While Yang Xikuan, Chi Haifei and Qian Renji were able to remain calm and were not controlled by the Green Cloud Barrier. Although their Soul Realm was not outstanding, it was not an issue for them to stay calm and get rid of the Green Cloud Barrier.
Yue Zhangzhi and Huang Bo looked miserable and gloomy. At this moment, Huang Bo turned awful and terrible. Under the Green Cloud Barrier, his true character was completely revealed.
“Yue Zhangzhi, you’re going to die today.”
Jiang Chen said softly under his breath. He surged forward and pa.s.sed through the Green Cloud Barrier at lightning speed. Most of them lost their way in the vast endless sky, but everything was clear in Jiang Chen’s heart.
“I will take your life now!”
Jiang Chen’s sword swept through the sky instantly, the Third Elder rushed at him at the same time.
“Kid, I’ve waited for you for so long! You shouldn’t treat your seniors this way. You’re such a despicable mean guy. I will not let you off this time.”
Somehow, the Third Elder had broken through the constraint of the Green Cloud Barrier and surged toward Jiang Chen directly. He did not know the exact location of Jiang Chen so he had been feeling his way. And all of sudden, he could sense Jiang Chen’s strong killing intent so he was able to find him in the twinkling of an eye.
Jiang Chen was not able to kill Yue Zhangzhi with a single blow as he was forced to take a step back by the Third Elder"s mighty strong palm. There was truly a huge difference between their strength after all. It would be nearly impossible for him to defeat the Third Elder, unless he used the Little Ashura Sword Formation.
“Hey kid, where are you going!”
The Third Elder was trying hard to search for Jiang Chen once again. Apparently, he was looking for an opportunity to strike back.
“I am not going to play with you anymore.”
Jiang Chen said with disdain. He was moving quickly and swept through the sky by casting the Great Void Technique. Jiang Chen drew his sword immediately and cut Yue Zhangzhi’s throat at once. Yue Zhangzhi was killed by Jiang Chen, his blood sputtering over Huang Bo. While Huang Bo was trembling violently, he was able to escape from the Green Cloud Barrier immediately. He quivered and took a deep breath after seeing Yue Zhangzhi’s dreadful dead body.
“Brother Jiang, you......did you kill Yue Zhangzhi?”
Huang Bo was filled with astonishment.
“I will kill whoever tries to stop me.”
Jiang Chen said calmly. He just killed someone at lightning speed, without leaving a trace.
At the moment, Xue Liang was still trapped in the Green Cloud Barrier, being mad and acting uncontrollably. Jiang Chen believed that he would not give up easily. Even though Xue Liang’s sword skills were slightly inferior to Jiang Chen, he was still considered as a real master of sword. However, there was a demon in his mind which had tortured him all the time and it seemed impossible for him to get over it. If he could not break through the obstacle, he would encounter a great crisis in his spiritual cultivation journey in the future.
Bing Yun was distracted by anxiety but Jiang Chen held her back. It seemed like Xue Liang was suffering an unbearable torment and was experiencing a great trial. Those who were weak in strength and mental strength tended to be distracted by the hallucination of the Green Cloud Barrier.
Xue Liang was struggling hard and he could barely calm down. He roared ferociously, vomited blood before opening his eyes suddenly. At this moment, he had eventually conquered the Green Cloud Barrier and overcome the demon!
“Brother Bai!”
Bing Yun threw herself into Xue Liang’s arm. While Xue Liang looked calm and his heart was at peace. Jiang Chen knew well that Xue Liang had successfully overcome the obstacle in his heart. Otherwise, he would have suffered great torment in the Green Cloud Barrier.
“Congratulations!”
Jiang Chen said with a bright smile and Xue Liang answered with a nod. Although this was not a great breakthrough, he was still relieved that he had achieved peace of mind. His sword skills would be greatly enhanced because of this remarkable achievement.
The Green Cloud Barrier dispersed across the sky. Yue Zhangzhi’s death deepened the conflict between the Third Elder and Huang Bo. However, Jiang Chen was not able to find Shangguan Yanyun, he wondered where he was.
“The Green Cloud Barrier is fading away, how about the Crystal Sword? The Crystal Sword disappeared too.”
Chi Haifei exclaimed in shock. The Crystal Sword disappeared completely in a wink. Not only that, Shangguan Yanyuan, who used to be a silent and uncommunicative man, was nowhere to be found as well.
“d.a.m.n! did Shangguan Yanyun steal the Crystal Sword and escape all by himself?”
Yang Xikuan said in a low voice.
“It’s quite likely that he stole the Crystal Sword.”
Sheng Kun agreed by giving a nod. The Third Elder and the others remained calm and stayed still. Apparently, that was the best explanation.
“Look, the seven stone dragons are moving.”
Qian Renji was amazed. Jiang Chen and the others had left the place, however, the Third Elder did not look for Jiang Chen immediately. The Crystal Sword was missing, the disappearance of Shangguan Yanyu, The Third Elder was in a dilemma at the moment. Hence, he had to remain calm and get everything under control. Even though Yue Zhangzhi was not the most important disciple in this journey, losing a Hierarch Realm expert was still considered as a great loss to the Profound Connection Divine Palace. Someone was already sacrificed even before entering the core of the Great Emperor’s tomb, this would probably affect their morale and team spirit.
“That’s true, the Stone Dragons are moving.”
Bing Yun’s face turned ghastly pale at the moment.
The Seven Stone Dragons were moving and were approaching them slowly. They were drowned in darkness, looking gloomy and dreadful.
