Chapter 3247: Encountering Zhi Ye Coincidentally
A beautiful woman in red clothes sat on the ground in the small spaceship. Her alluring face was completely pale. Her presence was weak, and her complexion was haggard, clearly heavily injured.
She was a Primordial realm expert, but she was only a First Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime. However, due to her heavy wounds, she probably could not even defeat an Overgod right now.
Faced with the blanketing swarm of star ants, all she could do was hide in the spaceship and hope for the best, relying on the spaceship itself to fend them off.
However, the spaceship did not have much energy remaining. At the same time, the formation’s energy was being rapidly depleted against the huge swarm of star ants. Even if she used everything she was capable of, she could not break out.
She was far too feeble. Before this, she had already paid an extremely hefty price, using a legacy secret technique to escape. She was already at the end of her rope. Now that she was faced with the huge swarm of star ants outside, she was no longer capable of anything.
“Don’t tell me I’m going to die here today? It’s fine if I die, b-but I’m their only hope right now.” The woman in red was filled with despair. At this moment, she felt so powerless. She was filled with sorrow. “If I die here, what’s going to happen to Rui Di? They can’t last for too long. If I can’t bring the news back to the sect in time, Rui Di and the others will die as well.”
Just as the woman despaired, the space outside the ship suddenly began to surge. A huge black hole appeared, sucking away all the star ants outside instantly.
Meanwhile, the space around her ship seemed to be frozen, such that she was completely unaffected.
The abrupt twist in the situation immediately stunned the woman, but she soon rejoiced.
“I wonder which passing senior has lent me a hand,” the woman thought. Her anxious heart finally settled down too.
“I didn’t expect to see you here. What a surprise. However, your situation doesn’t seem too good. You’ve actually been injured to the core. You must have used some kind of secret technique that comes with an extremely heavy toll.” At this moment, a voice that was both unfamiliar and slightly familiar suddenly rang out from behind her.
The woman was surprised, turning around instinctively. She was filled with caution.
All she saw was Jian Chen standing there, dressed in white. He had completely erased his presence, so she failed to sense his existence at all.
“Y-you’re Jian Chen?” The woman stared straight at him. It took a moment of careful recollection before she finally recognised me.
“It’s me.” Jian Chen nodded. He studied the woman and gradually became stern. “Your wounds are extremely heavy. If it weren’t for your physique as a Scorching Divine Phoenix and your tenacious life force, you probably wouldn’t have lasted until now. Zhi Ye, what exactly happened? Who injured you?”
The woman in red was the second Scorching Divine Phoenix that Jian Chen had encountered after Hong Lian. They had met in the Neptunean Divine Palace.
The Scorching Divine Phoenix clan was originally located on Dragon Island. Afterwards, they followed the Winged Tiger God, or Mo Tianyun in other words, to the Saints’ World.
Zhi Ye was the same as Hong Lian, also part of the Scorching Divine Phoenixes clan.
“Jian Chen, h-how are you able to tell my injuries in a single glance?” Zhi Ye stared at Jian Chen in complete surprise. Not only did Jian Chen notice all of her wounds in a single glance, but he even knew more about them than her in certain locations, so how could she not be surprised?
Her understanding of Jian Chen still remained at the level when they left the Neptunean Divine Palace a thousand years ago.
“Let’s not worry about that for now. Tell me about your wounds. What kind of trouble did you encounter?” Jian Chen asked. He was not stingy towards Zhi Ye at all, as she had once assisted him in the Neptunean Divine Palace. Without any hesitation, he took out a mid grade God Tier Twin-headed Lotus from the space in his soul, passing it over. “Your wounds are extremely heavy. Even if you take some God Tier pills, it’ll take a long time for you to recover. Injuries to the core are very difficult to treat too. Eat this Twin-headed Lotus immediately. It can allow you to recover in the shortest time possible.”
“T-this is a mid grade God Tier heavenly resource.” Zhi Ye was surprised once again when she saw the Twin-headed Lotus that Jian Chen had taken out. Normally, only Chaotic Primes would possess such a precious treasure. With her strength as a First Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime, she rarely ever came into contact with heavenly resources of such great quality.
It was far too valuable and expensive, so Infinite Primes could rarely afford them.
On top of that, she could sense that the Twin-headed Lotus seemed to be slightly different.
“It’s just a mid grade God Tier heavenly resource. I have plenty of them on me. Enough, you don’t have to hesitate any more. Eat it quickly.” Jian Chen smiled.
Zhi Ye listened to him and ate it immediately. Afterwards, she said, “This time, Rui Di and I brought some juniors from the sect with us to explore a dwelling left behind by a Chaotic Prime. In the end, we were trapped in a divine hall in the dwelling.”
“That was a medium quality God Tier divine hall. It was extremely powerful, filled with various killing formations. With our strength, it was completely impossible for us to break out. In the end, I paid an extremely great price to use my legacy secret technique before finally escaping after great difficulty. I wanted to return to the sect for help. Only by seeking help from the Chaotic Prime ancestors of the sect can we save the people inside.”
Reaching there, Zhi Ye suddenly began to panic. “Jian Chen, quick, take me back to the sect. I need to pass on the news to the sect as soon as possible, or it’ll be too late. Rui Di and the others can’t hold on for much longer.”
“Where is the dwelling? If it’s just a medium quality god artifact, then that’s not a problem,” Jian Chen said in thought.
“The dwelling is located on a meteor. Stop asking so many questions. We need to seek help from the sect immediately. Rui Di and the others are currently in great danger,” Zhi Ye said urgently. She was extremely anxious. “Oh right, Rui Jin, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu, the three people that you know, are also trapped in the divine hall. With their weaker strength, they probably can’t last as long. They’re probably done for already.”
“What did you say!?” Jian Chen’s face immediately sank, and his presence as a Chaotic Prime erupted uncontrollably. Zhi Ye’s spaceship could withstand the attacks of Third Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes at most, so it did not even last for a single moment, immediately shattering to pieces under his presence.
Zhi Ye was blown away like a fallen leaf in the wind, knocked away through outer space after coughing up blood.
But despite her injuries, she stared at Jian Chen in shock. Her heart surged.
At this moment, a hand pressed against Zhi Ye’s back gently, slowing her down easily. Jian Chen had appeared beside her before she knew it. His face was sunken, and he was extremely anxious as well. He said urgently, “Quick, tell me where the dwelling is.”
“This is the star chart. It’s marked with the location of the dwelling.” Zhi Ye immediately passed a star chart to Jian Chen.
Jian Chen accepted the star chart and found his bearings quickly. Then he set off towards the dwelling as quickly as he could with the Laws of Space.
He sped through outer space, pushing the Laws of Space to the limit. He travelled as quickly as he could, rushing along.
With his current speed, he basically crossed through galaxies with each step. The surrounding stars revolved. Who knew how many kilometres he travelled in an instant.
Zhi Ye stood beside Jian Chen. Gazing as the stars rapidly changed and receded, she became completely stunned a long time ago.
She did not know exactly how powerful Jian Chen was, but just his speed left her shocked enough. Her heart was in turmoil.
She had followed the Chaotic Prime ancestors of the sect out before, also travelling through outer space, yet the Chaotic Prime ancestors did not even come close to a fifth of Jian Chen’s speed.
His speed was no longer simply unbelievably fast, but unimaginably fast, having completely departed from Zhi Ye’s range of understanding.
