Chapter 3256: The Sovereigns Return (1)
Before the Saint Monarchs, Jian Chen was completely incapable of hiding anything. Whether it was the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race that had been ever-successful or the twin swords he had hidden away deeply, it was all useless before the great Saint Monarchs. All of it seemed transparent, as they saw through it with ease.
The twin swords hovered above Jian Chen’s head. Because they had fused together just earlier, they were currently extremely dim. At the same time, there were tiny cracks on the medium quality god artifacts.
But at this moment, the twin swords were immobilised. They were trapped mid-air by an invisible power.
It was not just the twin swords. Jian Chen was trapped as well. As if a freezing spell had been cast on him, he could not even budge a finger.
The Chaotic Force in his body did not circulate either. Even his blood stopped flowing. He could not even use his soul.
The person behind this was the Heaven Perceiving Saint Monarch of the Thousand Mechanisms clan.
Across the entire Saints’ World, there were only a handful of Saint Monarchs. Every single one of them was a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime that practised a Grand Exalt’s cultivation method, having obtained the majority or even the entirety of a Grand Exalt’s legacy. At the same time, they carried at least a sovereign god artifact on them.
As a result, every single Saint Monarch was an unbelievably powerful existence in the Saints’ World. They could destroy worlds with a twitch of a finger, supreme figures only second to sovereigns.
Now that such a great figure had personally taken action, let alone a Chaotic Prime like Jian Chen, even certain Grand Primes would be no different from ants before these lofty, powerful Saint Monarchs.
“You bastard, it’s actually the twin swords of the Immortals’ World.”
“They might just be medium quality god artifacts, but the presence can't be wrong. These are indeed the weakened twin swords.”
“What weakened twin swords? They’re clearly the same two swords from the past, just that the artifact spirits are weakened, nowhere close to recovering.”
“That old bastard Violet Heavens is completely devoid of a sovereign’s bearing. He’s shameless and underhanded, actually slaughtering so many of our experts despite being a sovereign.”
“The person who obtains the twin swords’ recognition is obviously the old bastard’s successor. We can’t let this person live.”
......
…
The twin swords were completely exposed before all of the experts, which immediately made their eyes narrow. In the next moment, the space there erupted with killing intent. Terrifying pressures spread out, shattering all the stars and meteors hovering in the nearby space. They were all reduced to dust, crushed to pieces by the pressure.
After all, this was not the pressure of a single peak expert or two, but an entire group of them. Every single one of them was extremely powerful, terrifying existences whose names rang through the Saints’ World.
Many of them had irresolvable grievances with the Violet Heavens Grand Exalt. They all had people who they held dear that had died at his hands.
“Not only will I tear the successor of that old bastard Violet Heavens to pieces today, but I’ll even dig out everyone connected to you. I won’t spare any of them whether they’re individuals or organisations. I’ll destroy them one by one with my own hands.” An old man spoke up. He wore a set of white robes, which made him seem sagely.
However, his eyes shone with killing intent as he ground his teeth.
He was not weak. He was a supreme expert who had vanished from the view of the public for a million years, a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime.
As he said that, the old man wanted to take action. Even with the seven Saint Monarchs present, he did not demonstrate any reservedness. He was completely composed.
“Hold on. You’re not the only one who bears a grudge against that old bastard Violet Heavens. Even if this person should be sliced into a thousand pieces, it shouldn’t be just you who does it.” However, someone stopped the old man. She was an old woman with peppered hair and a face full of wrinkles. She was also a Ninth Heavenly Layer who had concealed herself, vanishing from the Saints’ World many years ago.
“My husband perished under the two swords that the old bastard tossed out back then. I want this person’s head. You better not fight with me over it.” The speaker was a slender woman with delicate facial features. She was alluringly beautiful, except her face was frosty right now.
Peak experts after peak experts spoke up. Their eyes were filled with hatred and coldness, basically tempted to execute Jian Chen on the spot. Even if it brought disgrace to their status, they did not care at all.
Of course, a portion of the experts had their eyes fixed on the twin swords the entire time. Greed burned away in the depths of their eyes, hidden away well.
With the heights they stood at, there were very few items in the world that could still interest them. Even some high grade God Tier materials were useless to them.
However, the twin swords had been sovereign god artifacts in the past. They were supreme treasures that could easily entice any of them.
Even when they knew the backlash from fusing the swords was extremely intense, not necessarily something that they could endure, it did not affect the fact that they could use it as a trump card to deter their opponent.
With the twin swords, they did not have to consider fusing them at all. As long as they possessed this trump card, their opponents would have second thoughts when facing them.
“This person is Jian Chen. He founded a Tian Yuan clan in the southern region of the Cloud Plane. In the past, he also made a great contribution to the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng due to returning the Anatta Tower. Most importantly, the ninth majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng seems to be his sworn brother. Yi Xin, as the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, what’s your take on this?”
Among the seven suns that were the Saint Monarchs, a person spoke up. He spoke flatly, looking towards the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng.
He was the Dao Heaven Saint Monarch of the Dao clan!
With that, many experts present immediately shuddered. They were very surprised, overcome with a sense of disbelief.
The successor of the old bastard Violet Heavens had actually made a great contribution to the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng? And he was a sworn brother of the ninth majesty? What kind of joke was this?
After all, the master of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, the Anatta Grand Exalt, had been heavily injured by the Violet Heavens Grand Exalt’s twin words, leading to a disappearance of three million years. Many people even thought that the Anatta Grand Exalt had perished.
Now, the Anatta Grand Exalt’s newly-accepted disciple was actually a sworn brother of the successor of the Violet Heavens Grand Exalt. That left the feelings of all the experts present in disorder.
That was simply absurd.
If it were not for the fact that the speaker was the great Dao Heaven Saint Monarch, they would have never believed something like that had happened.
“Dao Heaven, I didn’t expect you to know this person so well.” Beside the Dao Heaven Saint Monarch, the Vengeful Heaven Saint Monarch of the Ancient Burial clan said in surprise.
“Yi Xin, is what Dao Heaven said true?” A person in one of the suns looked over. The Blood-clothed Saint Monarch of the Bai clan asked.
