Chapter 2418: End of the Line (One)
Jian Chen stood within the teleportation formation and sensed the strengthening power. He finally became relieved.
He had taken a teleportation formation across planes before. Although the formation needed to gather power for a while, he could definitely leave the Star Brilliance Plane before the mysterious expert arrived.
As long as he made it onto the Hematophagis Plane, he would be able to take a second teleportation formation and directly travel to the Prosper Plane.
Provided he continued with his teleportations, the mysterious expert who pursued him definitely would not be able to catch up, even if they were a Grand Prime.
At this moment, the blinding teleportation formation suddenly dimmed. Even the power rapidly weakened.
Very soon, the teleportation formation that was charging up to send them to another plane came to a complete stop.
“What’s going on? Why has the teleportation formation stopped?” Jian Chen suddenly looked at the Infinite Prime responsible for the teleportation formation, and his face became sunken.
“I’ve just received orders to temporarily close down the interplanar teleportation formation. No one can leave through our Five Point sect’s teleportation formations,” the middle-aged man said helplessly. However, his gaze towards Jian Chen and Kai Ya contained a hint of suspicion. He wondered to himself, “Strange, why has the ancestor suddenly shut down the teleportation formation? That rarely ever happens. Is it because of the two of them?”
Jian Chen’s heart sank. He could already guess that it was related to the mysterious expert who was chasing them. He did not say anything. Instead, he immediately pulled Kai Ya towards the several dozen teleportation formations that were limited to taking people around the Star Brilliance Plane.
“There are several dozen teleportation formations that can take people to different places on the Star Brilliance Plane. Since the Five Point sect’s is unavailable, we’ll go elsewhere. I refuse to believe he can close all the interplanar teleportation formations on the Star Brilliance Plane,” Jian Chen said coldly before immediately stepping into a teleportation formation nearby and leaving the territory of the Five Point sect.
The ancestor of the Five Point sect, the Point Cloud Venerable, remained seated in the air. Although he did not take a single step out of the forbidden grounds, nothing on the Star Brilliance Plane could be hidden from him if he wanted to know.
This was because the senses of his soul were so powerful that he could envelope the entire Star Brilliance Plane.
“It looks like the Elder of Mountains and Seas has come for the two of them. Who are they? They’re only a mere Infinite Prime and Godking, yet they’re enough for the Elder of Mountains and Seas to pay such a hefty price to prevent them from leaving the Star Brilliance Plane,” thought the Point Cloud Venerable. He had become extremely curious about why the Elder of Mountains and Seas had used two droplets of hell water to stop two measly figures that did not raise his attention at all.
Hell water had extremely significant effects on even Grand Primes, so its value went without saying. Despite that being the case, the Elder of Mountains and Seas was actually using two droplets for the two of them. Such an act did not suit him at all.
“I heard the Elder of Mountains and Seas recently went to the Desolate Plane to get the Anatta Tower from Jian Chen. Is one of them Jian Chen in disguise?” The Point Cloud Venerable’s eyes lit up. He immediately stood up, and a terrifying presence radiated from him; it made mountains tremble and space twist.
The disturbance caused by the Anatta Tower had spread across the entire Saints’ World long ago. The Point Cloud Venerable naturally knew about it, but since there were just too many experts gathered on the Desolate Plane, the Point Cloud Venerable knew it was very unlikely for him to obtain the Anatta Tower. He might even end up offending all the organisations, so he did not take part back then.
But now that it was extremely likely for Jian Chen to be in the territory of his Five Point sect and that no one else apart from the Elder of Mountains and Seas knew, the Point Cloud Venerable immediately became interested. Even if he obtained the Anatta Tower, he would not need to worry about all the experts coming to fight him for it.
“Hahaha, what a heaven-sent blessing, what a heaven-sent blessing. All the other people want the Anatta Tower so that they can return it and benefit from the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. But with my methods, if I plan things properly, I can prevent anyone else from learning about this. I might even be able to take the Anatta Tower for myself.” The Point Cloud Venerable chuckled aloud. The Laws of Time and Space wrapped around him. He had already begun to use his exceptional techniques to obscure the heavenly secrets.
However, at this moment, his heart suddenly thumped. A sense of unease silently rose up in his heart.
The Point Cloud Venerable was surprised. After a moment of thought, he seemed to fuse with the world. Under the complementary Laws of Space and Time, a river of time appeared beneath his feet.
The light in his eyes flickered as he peered into something. He gave off a dense presence of ways as he looked along the flow of time, gazing into the future.
Gradually, the Point Cloud Venerable’s excitement vanished. He became stern.
Very soon, the river of time vanished, and the presence of ways around him disappeared as well. He hovered in the air as he stared into the distance. He was stern and surprised.
“I never thought the Anatta Tower would be such a huge piece of karma. It’s a disaster. I can’t possess it. Although I can’t see the source of this karma and I struggle to see the origins of the disaster, I did see the destruction of the Five Point sect and my death.”
“If I interfere and take the Anatta Tower for myself, it might end up with me, but my final fate would be death…” The Point Cloud Venerable struggled to remain composed. He became rather pale.
He possessed wondrous abilities with the combination of the Laws of Time and Space. He could see fate and the future. He had managed to avoid many calamities with this ability, which was why he firmly believed what he saw in the river of time.
The Point Cloud Venerable gradually calmed down. He sat back down and decided to no longer interfere.
To another side, Jian Chen had already left the territory of the Five Point sect through a teleportation formation. They had arrived in a second city with an interplanar teleportation formation. After paying the five-colored divine crystals, they tried to teleport away as soon as possible.
The sense of danger within him was becoming more and more powerful. He knew that there was not much time remaining.
However, at this moment, a powerful senses of the soul descended from outer space, directly enveloping the city where Jian Chen was located.
Jian Chen could clearly sense the suffocating senses of the soul from within the teleportation formation. It surged through the dense power of the formation and enveloped him.
The senses of the soul were so powerful that it actually interfered with the operation of the teleportation formation. Immediately, the power around the teleportation formation pulsed with instability. The teleportation formation could not charge up anymore.
“Oh, no!” Jian Chen’s face changed. The mysterious expert was even faster than he had imagined.
