Chapter 2801: The Essence Blood Exposed (1/2)
The expressions of Chu Jie, Zhou Zhi, Kong Feiying, Zhao Wenbin, and Gong Ruize changed drastically. They had already witnessed the horrors of the vital energy before. That was a terrifying power that could make the entire world pale. They had already been frightened to their wit’s end.
And more importantly, they had already guessed that the vital energy was probably connected to a Grand Exalt’s legacy, or maybe it was the power that Grand Exalts possessed.
Before such high level power, even if they had the Primordial realm formations, they were helpless, let alone the fact that the Primordial realm formations were already in shambles. Their strength had reverted to its previous state, making them even more helpless before a power they believed to have reached the level of Grand Exalts already.
This was all because they were insufficiently powerful. Otherwise, if a Primordial realm expert was present, they would probably be able to see through the disguise of the five arrows of vital energy under Jian Chen’s control.
“Yang Yutian, I am a core disciple of the Yuqiong sect. I possess esteemed status within the Yuqiong sect. If you kill me, the Yuqiong sect will never spare you!” As the terrifying vital energy enveloped him, the life-threatening danger finally made Zhou Zhi’s spirit collapse. He barked out fearfully, clearly trying to bargain for his life.
“Yang Yutian, I’ll clean the slate with you right now, right now. I definitely won’t cause you anymore problems in the future. I just hope you can stop immediately.” Under the threat of death, Gong Ruize temporarily tossed his pride aside too, begging for mercy despite the humiliation and reluctance he felt. That was what he said, but resentment and intense killing intent was still hidden within the depths of his eyes.
Kong Feiying of the Cangqiong clan and Zhao Wenbin of the Zhou family communicated with him secretly too. They had all paled from fright, as they could sense the presence of death that made their very souls tremble from the powerful vital energy.
Even with the sacrificial Godkings they had brought with them, even with the protection of the supreme quality saint artifacts on them, they did even feel a hint of safety before this presence of death.
However, Jian Chen ignored their pleas. His gaze was cold and his killing intent was resolute. Controlling the tiny strands of sword Qi masked by the vital energy, he plunged it mercilessly into their heads.
Silently, the tiny strands of sword Qi vanished into their foreheads.
This was a terrifying power that could even kill Primordial realm experts. Before this power, the five of them were obviously unable to put up any resistance at all as mere Godkings.
Afterwards, the vital energy immediately entered their heads through the wound on their foreheads, leaving behind a slight trace to make it seem like they had died to the vital energy.
The vital energy that filled the surroundings gradually dispersed. When the surroundings cleared up once more, Chu Jie, Zhou Zhi, Kong Feiying, Gong Ruize, and Zhao Wenbin had already been reduced to corpses, laying as still as a log on the ground. The sacrificial Godkings they had brought with them became stunned with absolutely no idea about what to do.
As for Jian Chen, he seemed like all his energy had been drained away. Not only was his presence feeble, but his life force flickered, as if it had already run out. Afterwards, he shut his eyes and collapsed on the ground, falling unconscious.
As he fainted, the droplet of essence blood from the ancient Skywolf within his body seemed to break free from some kind of restraint. The pure vital energy erupted from the constraints of Jian Chen’s body, directly leaking out and revolving around him.
At the same time, the droplet of essence blood seemed to develop a mind of its own, moving slowly through Jian Chen’s body before arriving in his mouth at the very end. It was as if it wanted to break free from Jian Chen’s control and fly out.
However, Jian Chen clenched his teeth, using his mouth as a prison to block its only way out. The essence blood was trapped in there.
Right now, Jian Chen had completely lowered his guard. Stealing this droplet of Grand Exalt’s essence blood would not require much cultivation at all. One only had to pry open Jian Chen’s mouth gently, and the essence blood would be theirs.
Nearby, the Scion of Five Point stared at the unconscious Jian Chen. He could sense the item radiating with pure vital energy from Jian Chen’s mouth as he hesitated.
Even though he had failed to recognise this to be the essence blood of a Grand Exalt, he knew it was something impressive. Making up his mind, he appeared beside Jian Chen instantly.
