Chapter 2604: Nurturing with Painstaking Effort
“This time, the Immortal Devouring Orchid will definitely reach the Primordial realm. Even if it doesn’t devour the corpses of the Godkings, Infinite Primes, and Chaotic Primes, just the corpses of Overgods and below should be enough for it to break through,” thought Jian Chen as he became eager.
The Godsfallen clan was a peak clan on the Cloud Plane. They had a history that spanned a million years. After such a long period of growth, the members of the Godsfallen clan had reached the hundred thousands, or even over a million in number.
Even though there were not a lot of people at Godking or above, there were many below Godking. There were even more at the Origin realm and Sainthood.
If all of these people were combined, they would even be equivalent to over a dozen Infinite Primes.
“For corpses of Infinite Primes, the Immortal Devouring Orchid would need some time to digest them. However, the Immortal Devouring Orchid can basically digest Sainthood, Origin realm, and Godhood cultivators almost instantly. Although the energy within these low level cultivators are nowhere close to Infinite Primes, there are a lot of them. For the Immortal Devouring Orchid, once the quantity reaches a certain level, there will be an increase in quality,” thought Jian Chen. He hovered in the sky, observing the battle in the Godsfallen clan as he paid close attention to the Immortal Devouring Flower just in case any accidents occurred.
After all, the Immortal Devouring Orchid was only a Godking. If it faced Primordial realm experts, it would be doomed.
“This plant actually dares to devour the clansmen of our Godsfallen clan. You deserve to die!” An Infinite Prime within the Godsfallen clan bellowed out furiously. He immediately used a God Tier Battle Skill, knocking away his opponent, an elder of the Tong family, before rushing over to the Immortal Devouring Orchid. He surged with killing intent.
However, as soon as he moved, an old man blocked him and struck him with terrifying energy.
He was a great elder of the Tong family.
In the end, before the Infinite Prime from the Godsfallen clan could approach the Immortal Devouring Orchid, he was killed off.
“Patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, here’s the corpse.” The great elder directly tossed the corpse to Jian Chen.
“Elder Luo Xi is dead as well. Basically all the mid and late Infinite Prime elders of our Godsfallen clan are dead. There’s only me and a few early Infinite Prime elders remaining.” In the battlefield elsewhere in the clan, a young man was covered in blood and vicious wounds as he battled against an elder of the Tong family who was clearly much more powerful than him.
He was an Infinite Prime elder of the Godsfallen clan, Luo Feiye.
Luo Feiye’s eyes were currently filled with despair. The Chaotic Primes of the Tong family went as far as to lower themselves and personally kill the Infinite Primes of the Godsfallen clan. As a result, they were completely powerless.
Now, all the stronger elders of the Godsfallen clan were dead. The great elders of the Tong family had directed their attention to cultivators at his level, killing them off one by one.
Luo Feiye knew he could not live for much longer because it would be his turn very soon.
The Tong family had sealed up the Godsfallen clan such that people could only come in and not leave. It was impossible for them to flee.
“Go deal with the Godkings of the Godsfallen clan. Leave this person to me.” A Chaotic Prime from the Tong family arrived before Luo Feiye. He stared at Luo Feiye coldly as he spoke to the elder who had been fighting him.
“Yes, great elder!” The Infinite Prime of the Tong family bowed politely before immediately flying off elsewhere.
“Hahaha, I, Luo Feiye, am actually worthy of dying to a great elder of the Tong family. Even if it’s death, it’s something for me to be proud about,” Luo Feiye said miserably. His face was covered with blood. As he laughed aloud, blood with traces of crushed organs oozed from his mouth.
“Hmph.” the great elder of the Tong family snorted coldly and stabbed his sword at Luo Feiye.
“Stop!” At this moment, a woman called out. The white-robed Tian Shuang flew over from the distance and headed right into the Godsfallen clan. She called out to the great elder who was about to kill Luo Feiye.
The great elder from the Tong family frowned. He suddenly looked at Tian Shuang, and his eyes were rather cold.
Tian Shuang’s heart tightened. She immediately reacted to the situation and said to Jian Chen, “Patriarch, can you spare Luo Feiye? Although Luo Feiye is a member of the Godsfallen clan, his nature isn’t bad.”
“Tian Shuang, is he your friend?” Jian Chen glanced at Luo Feiye. He was a Third Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, an expert who did not raise any attention from Jian Chen at all.
“Luo Feiye is my friend of many years. He also assisted me a lot in the past,” said Tian Shuang. She seemed a little like she was pleading.
The great elder who was about to kill Luo Feiye stopped after seeing Tian Shuang plead to Jian Chen. He looked at Jian Chen from afar, as if he was waiting for Jian Chen’s decision.
“Since he’s your friend, I’ll help you this time,” said Jian Chen. Since Tian Shuang had already pleaded to him, he naturally would not turn her down. He immediately explained to the great elder of the Tong family.
Luo Feiye’s talent was nothing spectacular. It was impossible for someone like that to pose any threat to Jian Chen or the Tong family.
“Since the patriarch has spoken, our Tong family will spare this person.” The great elder chuckled and agreed extremely straightforwardly. He treated Jian Chen in a manner that was completely different from Tian Shuang.
“Tian Shuang, w- why do you save me?” Luo Feiye coughed up blood as his eyes were completely gloomy. He was heavily affected by what the Godsfallen clan was going through.
At the same time, the roots of the Immortal Devouring Orchid that was hidden underground stopped absorbing blood. The huge flower outside became enveloped by a dense, red mist as it gave off powerful pulses.
In such a short amount of time, the Immortal Devouring Orchid had absorbed the blood and vital energies of hundreds of thousand clansmen of the Godsfallen clan. Even though the strongest were only Overgods, the energy it had accumulated was equivalent to several Infinite Primes after consuming such a great number of corpses. That was the Immortal Devouring Orchid’s limit.
The Immortal Devouring Orchid could not absorb a portion of the corpses. It could only let the corpse remained scattered across the ground, allowing the blood to trickle and form streams.
“It should be enough this time,” Jian Chen stared at the Immortal Devouring Orchid as he murmured to himself. Then he arrived before the Immortal Devouring Orchid in a flash and personally watched over it.
In just a few hours, the battle in the Godsfallen clan completely ended. The Godsfallen clan that once stood at the apex of the Cloud Plane had completely vanished now.
Jian Chen did not collect any spoils of the battle. Instead, he watched over the Immortal Devouring Orchid patiently. People of the Tong family had collected the scattered corpses of Godkings for him.
“Patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, all the corpses of the Godkings from the Godsfallen clan are in this Space Ring. There are more than four hundred of them.” Tong Xiao of the four great elders passed a Space Ring that specially carried the corpses of the Godsfallen clan Godkings to Jian Chen.
Jian Chen’s eyes lit up in joy with that.
Over four hundred Godkings, over twenty Infinite Primes, and five Chaotic Primes. It was an extremely great harvest from the Godsfallen clan.
“It’s all you who benefited from the events this time. Immortal Devouring Orchid, I’ve nurtured you with painstaking effort, so don’t disappoint me,” Jian Chen stared at the Immortal Devouring Orchid and said gently.
“Jian Chen, I’ve contacted the people handling the Daoist Sect of Emergence and the Heavenquaking sect. The corpses of the two sects will all go to you,” Tong Wuming arrived before Jian Chen and chuckled.
