Chapter 1550: Driven Back Two (2/2)

Ouyang Yangwen glanced over and coldly replied, “Do you have any other ideas aside from wasting their energy now that the situation is like this? If we don’t waste all the energy of the divine hall, we can’t do anything to them. Even if I break free from these restraints by using my full power, there’s nothing I can do to the divine hall.”

In the blink of an eye, a whole day passed while both sides remained locked in a stalemate. During that time, the foreign experts in the Origin realm did not use much energy, but the divine hall continuously maintained the azure streams of light. They restrained the foreign experts and prevented them from attacking the divine hall and, thus, damaging the Tian Yuan Continent from the shockwaves. As a result, their expenditure of energy was extremely severe. Many Sainthood experts had used up all their Saint Force and were currently meditating to recover. However, their rate of recovery was nowhere near the rate of expenditure.

As time passed, all the Sainthood experts would begin to use up their Saint Force. The divine hall’s power would weaken without their support.

The current situation would become worse for the Tian Yuan Continent the longer it lasted.

However, a figure suddenly charged out of the divine hall at this very moment. He was clad in a special light, which radiated with extremely sharp strands of sword Qi. Two swords, one azure and one violet, hovered above his head, shining with their respective color. They were much duller than before and were riddled with cracks.

As soon as Jian Chen appeared, he shot toward the Returnance expert closest to him in an aggressive manner. His presence soared, causing the wind and clouds to churn.

The Returnance expert was the elder Zhang, who had faced off againt Houston earlier. As he watched Jian Chen charge toward him, his face immediately changed. Without any hesitation, he erupted with all his strength at Returnance. He pushed the azure streams of light around him three meters away. At the same time, a sword appeared in his hand, and he stabbed out with it.

Elder Zhang knew Jian Chen’s power, so he used his full strength from the first attack. He held nothing back.

Jian Chen had fully recovered from his wounds, now back in peak condition. The Azulet swords were damaged, but he still could defeat mid Returnance experts with his full strength. The elder before him was only at early Returnance, so as soon as they began fighting, Jian Chen knocked elder Zhang’s sword out of his hand. At the same time, the Qing Suo Sword shot forward with a flash of azure light and chopped off the elder’s right hand.

Elder Zhang grunted and attempted to flee. However, since he had just used his full strength, the azure streams were no longer kept away from his body due to the origin energy used in the attack. They immediately rebounded and trapped him once again.

“Oh no!” Elder Zhang’s heart immediately sank. However, the moment he thought that, he saw an azure flash. Without any hesitation, elder Zhang abandoned his body and fled as quickly as he could in the form of a soul. He ran toward the tunnel in fright.

“Spurt!” The Zi Ying Sword pierced his head. Jian Chen slammed his hand into the hilt, causing elder Zhang’s head to rupture. The Zi Ying Sword turned into a violet streak of light, pursuing elder Zhang’s fleeing soul with lightning-like speed.

Elder Zhang’s soul couldn’t flee as quickly as the Zi Ying Sword. Seeing how he was unable to escape, he immediately cried out, “Elder Ouyang, save…” However, before he could finish what he was saying, the Zi Ying Sword caught up and wiped out his soul.

Jian Chen did not pause after killing elder Zhang. He immediately shot toward another Returnance expert.
