Chapter 2980: The Ice Goddess Hall (One)
In the blink of an eye, the battle between Chaotic Primes in the Moon God Hall came to an end.
The battle was extremely brief, but in that transient time, the Moon God Hall’s fate had changed.
Now, among the six great elders of the Moon God Hall excluding Yun Wufeng, four had died, while the Fifth Heavenly Layer Luo Fei and Seventh Heavenly Layer Yue Wufeng had fled for their lives.
They should have been lofty great elders in the Moon God Hall, the mainstay of the Moon God Hall, but today, they all chose to abandon their foundations without the slightest hesitation.
Their flight also signified that the Moon God Hall had truly begun to decline.
Before long, the Infinite Prime elders of the Moon God Hall all gathered at the battleground. As soon as they arrived here, the corpse of Lin Zhongzheng was presented right before them.
Jian Chen did not have the time to collect this corpse, so a bloody sight was presented before all of the elders. “G- g- great elder…” Immediately, the elders there all changed in expression, and a heavy atmosphere of grief filled the place.
No one said anything more. All of their gazes gathered on Lin Zhongzheng’s corpse. The atmosphere became extremely oppressive and heavy.
Only quite a while later did an old voice break the silence in the hall with endless grief. “The hall master has died, and the great elders are either dead, injured, or gone. Is our Moon God Hall really just done for?”
No one said anything. They all fell silent. Only another while later did an elder say, “We might not have a hall master or any great elders now, but don’t you forget! Behind our Moon God Hall stands a supreme expert, the Flame Reverend!”
“The Flame Reverend? Hehehehe, with our cultivation as Infinite Primes, will the Flame Reverend even pay any attention to us?” An elder laughed in a self-deprecating manner.
Outside the Moon God Hall, Yue Wuguang desperately used up the last bit of power in him to flee madly through the boundless world of ice and snow.
Several hundred thousand kilometers behind him, Yun Wufeng and Jian Chen chased right after him.
Even though they had already unleashed their full speed, their distance from Yue Wuguang continued to grow.
Yue Wuguang had used a secret technique, cannibalising himself in exchange for great power that temporarily granted him his peak battle prowess at the Seventh Heavenly Layer, so he obviously moved extremely quickly. He gradually shook off Yun Wufeng.
However, it was exactly because he had cannibalised himself in exchange for great power that his condition had become absolutely terrible. He no longer had the spare strength to conceal his aura as he fled desperately, much less possess the ability to cover his tracks.
As a result, even when he pulled further and further away from Yun Wufeng, Yun Wufeng could still clearly sense his location.
Even when they were a million, several million kilometers apart, Yue Wuguang was still like a lantern in the night to Yun Wufeng and Jian Chen.
Jian Chen also pushed his speed to the limit as he chased after Yue Wuguang, but even when he used the Laws of Space, he could only barely keep up with Yun Wufeng.
After all, his actual cultivation realm was only at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime. He still had a step to take before he truly reached Chaotic Prime.
His comprehension of the Laws of Space was even lower than that, at the Eighth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime!
If he faced an early Chaotic Prime, then perhaps Jian Chen still possessed an advantage with the Laws of Space, but the person he currently faced was the Sixth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime Yun Wufeng and the Seventh Heavenly Layer Yue Wuguang.
Before these two experts, his Laws of Space obviously gave him no advantage at all.
Even just by keeping up with Yun Wufeng, Jian Chen had basically been outperforming himself.
Yun Wufeng saw how Jian Chen could actually keep up with him, and a smear of surprise appeared in his eyes, as he could clearly feel that Jian Chen’s compatibility with space had completely surpassed other experts of the same realm of cultivation.
Otherwise, it was absolutely impossible to keep pace with a Sixth Heavenly Layer Chaotic Prime travelling at full speed with the Laws of Space at the Eighth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Prime.
“Yue Wuguang can’t last much longer. He’ll run out of strength very soon. My friend, you better enter my divine hall. I’ll take you along with me,” Yun Wufeng communicated with Jian Chen.
“There’s no need. I can keep up!” Jian Chen replied. His body seemed to fuse with space completely, such that he moved silently as he travelled. He crossed several tens of thousand kilometers with each flash like he was teleporting.
He was not biting off more than he could chew. Instead, he needed to use the Profound Sword Qi to deter Yue Wuguang, to prevent him from unleashing some other ability and turning the tables on the brink of death, gaining a new lease on life.
“I still have two more strands of Profound Sword Qi. I’ll avoid using them if I can,” Jian Chen thought. During the pursuit, he consumed the God Tier pills that could recover the power of the soul he had obtained from the Heavenly Crane clan from time to time.
One fled and two pursued. With their extraordinary speed as Chaotic Primes, they crossed the entire Ice Pole Plane very soon. They even looped around the Ice Pole Plane a few times, alarming numerous organisations on the Ice Pole Plane. They became the centre of focus for many major organisations.
“Hmm? They seem to be from the Moon God Hall. Looks like the Moon God Hall is facing another upheaval.”
“The person fleeing at the front is the great elder of the Moon God Hall, Yue Wuguang, while the person pursuing at the back also seems to be a great elder of the Moon God Hall. But who’s the other person?”
“The Moon God Hall is involved with many things. No one should interfere with them. No one should ever interfere with them.”
“Just watching is enough for us. Whether it’s the Moon God Hall or the Hefeng clan that has lost their Grand Prime ancestors, there are traces of the Flame Reverend behind them both. No one should ever act recklessly, just in case it leads to disaster in the future.”
At this moment, the pulses of energy from Yue Wuguang began to gradually weaken. The great power he had obtained finally ran out. Even his speed as he fled became slower and slower.
“Will I be dying here today?” Yue Wuguang thought. He utterly refused to accept this. He raised his head and gazed at the boundless sky of stars overhead and felt so much despair for the first time in his life.
He was far too feeble right now, and his soul had suffered unimaginably severe injury, on the brink of collapse. Not only did it prevent him from controlling his powers properly, but he did not even have the ability to conceal himself. All he could do was use up his remaining strength helplessly and despairingly to put up a pointless struggle, just to earn another moment of life.
But soon afterwards, Yue Wuguang made up his mind viciously. He thought, “Yun Wufeng and that mysterious figure disguised as the sixth elder, even if I die today, I won’t let you have it easy.” With that, he changed directions and continued to burn his remaining power, rapidly flying towards the central region of the Ice Pole Plane.
Jian Chen and Yun Wufeng obviously changed directions with Yue Wuguang, chasing after him rapidly. As Yue Wuguang’s energy was about to run out and he gradually slowed down, the distance between them had already begun shortening.
The three of them flew through the air at high speed, traversing who knew how many glaciers and tundras and crossing who knew how vast of a distance. However, at this moment, Jian Chen suddenly shuddered inside.
That was because a huge, imposing divine hall had suddenly appeared before him, in the snow-ridden horizon.
