Chapter 1227: The Sea Goddess’ News
The azure and violet light engulfed Jian Chen’s sea of consciousness, protecting it at the same time. As soon as the terrifying coldness came in contact with the lights, it came to a halt, no longer able to advance any further.
“What coldness. Master, where have you come? Why is there such great coldness where even your chaotic neidan has been frozen?” Zi Ying’s voice rang out in Jian Chen’s head in shock.
Not only did Jian Chen lose control over his body, he had also lost all of his senses. The moment the sword spirits began protecting his soul, his consciousness had entered his sea of consciousness without choice.
A five-colored crystal hovered within the sea of consciousness. It was the Multicolored Stone Jian Chen had come across by accident and purchased in Walaurent City back then. During these past years, the sword spirits had been absorbing the pure energy within it, and thus, the stone was smaller than before.
An azure and violet light rotated around the stone. The two lights seemed to be connected with one another but not, at the same time. It seemed as if a certain distance was always maintained.
They were the original forms of the sword spirits, but they were deeper in color than before. Jian Chen knew that they had become much more powerful after absorbing the stone and recovering.
Although the sword spirits were recovering in Jian Chen’s sea of consciousness, they clearly did not pay attention to everything, so they didn’t know that Jian Chen had come across the Ice Goddess Hall.
Jian Chen explained everything he had gone through at the Ice Goddess Hall in full detail, immediately causing the sword spirits to fall into a temporary silence. Only a while later did Zi Ying sternly say, “Qing Suo and I once felt someone secretly observing us through their presence, but we were far too weak back then so we could not find where that person was hiding. But now, it looks like that person is protector Shui. Master, this protector Shui is extremely powerful. She shouldn’t be a person of this world, and you’re completely helpless against her with your current strength. You mustn’t go out of your way to provoke her.”
“Are you saying that she’s the same as me, from another world?” Jian Chen questioned in surprise.
“Correct, that’s indeed the case. However, the only difference is that master came from the bottom while she came from the top. She’s extremely powerful, but her strength suffers the restrictions of the world, so she can’t act freely, much less break the balance here, or she’ll be punished by the world. As long as you don’t provoke her, you should be fine,” said Zi Ying.
Jian Chen’s heart sank. He had never thought that protector Shui would possess such great origins where she was an expert from a higher world. In other words, he was unable to save Rui Jin, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu any time soon. It would even be impossible for him to see his sister if the protector obstructed them intentionally.
Although the sword spirits had said that the protector could not act freely, it meant that she could not do things without reason. Rui Jin, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu’s origin energy treasures had been described by her as saint artifacts that should not have appeared in this world. This was more than enough of a reason for her to act against the three of them.
“Master, Zi Ying and I have not fully recovered yet, so we’re not protector Shui’s opponent at the moment. However, we can nullify the coldness in your body. You can break free in a while as long as you cooperate, and you must immediately leave the icy plains as quickly as possible. Otherwise, the coldness will be increased by several levels the next time protector Shui moves, and we’ll be helpless against it at that time,” Zi Ying sternly explained.
“I understand. Zi Ying, Qing Suo, let’s start,” said Jian Chen.
The two balls of light in Jian Chen’s sea of consciousness began to glow brighter and brighter. They shot out from his sea of consciousness like swords while the two balls of light revolved around each other. However, they avoided contact as they shot toward Jian Chen’s dantian with lightning-like speed.
The two balls of light were like a miniature sun. All of the coldness that they came in contact with along the way melted away.
The lights arrived at Jian Chen’s dantian and the frost around his chaotic neidan rapidly dispersed, allowing Jian Chen to regain control over his chaotic neidan.
Jian Chen immediately made his chaotic neidan to spit out strands of Chaotic Force without requiring a warning from the sword spirits. The Chaotic Force then worked with the power of the sword spirits as it swam through his body, rapidly cleansing the coldness.
A few seconds later, a great bang suddenly rang through the icy plains. Jian Chen broke free from the thin layer of frost on him, and without any hesitation, he immediately shot into the sky, flying away as a blur. He left the icy plains as quickly as he could.
“Master, we’ve used a lot of energy. We’ll have to sleep for some time. We’ll only awaken if master faces fatal danger or if heavenly resources that peak our interest appear.” Zi Ying’s voice was slightly weak, and he made no more sounds after that.
