Chapter 2278: The Storm Continues

“Through the powers of space, break free from the restraints of the world and stride over the flow of time to travel hundreds of million kilometres away,” Jian Chen’s eyes lit up from the description of the technique as he became interested.

He discovered that not only was Cosmos Shift an extremely powerful method of escape, but it was also an impressive method for travelling.

It could let him cross hundreds of million kilometres in an instance. That was basically across an entire great plane. Some great planes were not even hundreds of million kilometres across.

Clearly, this secret technique was more than suitable for travelling in outer space. It would even save him from using teleportation formations across planes, allowing him to save a great sum of five-colored divine crystals.

“I feel like this Cosmos Shift is far more difficult to use than the Spatial Devouring Technique. It’s just far too hard to use it with the comprehension of laws at the level of Godkings. I even doubt whether I can gain a rudimentary grasp over the technique with my level of Laws of Space.”

“But without a single doubt, it’ll take an extremely long time to master it,” Jian Chen thought. The eight experts were far too terrifying when they were still alive. Their level of cultivation had exceeded his imagination. Supreme secret techniques they created would naturally be of an impressive quality. The mysteries of the world that the secret techniques used were just too profound to him right now.

As a result, it was impossible for him to gain a rudimentary grasp over these secret techniques as easily as he did with the Radiant Artes.

“There’s still around a year before the competition between the candidates begins. I’ll take advantage of this time and comprehend a few more laws,” thought Jian Chen before continuing to comprehend a law.

Time passed silently. In the blink of an eye, another half a year went by. On this day, Jian Chen roused from his selfless state of cultivation, and Godking level laws revolved around him once again.

With this half a year of comprehension, his Laws of Strength had reached early Godking.

“Just as I had expected. The Laws of Strength can indeed amplify my Chaotic Force. If I fuse the Laws of Strength into my body, my Chaotic Body will become thirty percent stronger. This increase is not just in toughness but in brute strength as well,” Jian Chen secretly rejoiced when he sensed the changes that the Laws of Strength had brought him.

“And that’s only the Laws of Strength at early Godking. In the future, as my comprehension of the Laws of Strength rapidly deepen, and my cultivation rapidly increases, the amplifying effect will become greater and greater as well,” Jian Chen’s eyes shone brightly. The help that the Laws of Strength brought to him was just too great. It directly increased his battle prowess. At that moment, he was even tempted to use the golden core of laws to comprehend the Laws of Strength to peak Godking in a single breath.

He believed that once the Laws of Strength reached late Godking, his Chaotic Body would definitely be amplified by more than thirty percent.

However, he did not have that much time left now.

“Out of the seven laws, I’ve already comprehended the Laws of Destruction, Space, and Strength to Godking. All that remains is the Laws of Creation, Fire, Corrosion, and Curses. Kai Ya happens to have grasped the Laws of Creation and Fire, and they also happen to be at Godking.”

“I won’t worry about the Laws of Creation and Fire for now. Let’s comprehend the Laws of Corrosion and Curses first,” Jian Chen ended up choosing the Laws of Curses after a moment of thought.

Jian Chen concentrated on cultivation and paid no attention to other matters. As he was furiously raising his strength, the Desolate Plane had not been peaceful at all.

After several years of build-up, the upheaval caused by Jian Chen on the Desolate Plane did not decrease. It only grew stronger.

More and more peak experts and organisations arrived on the Desolate Plane, searching for Jian Chen’s whereabouts on the Desolate Plane under the excuse of sharing the burden with the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. Not only did they flip through the entire Desolate Plane, but even the bottom of the swamp where Jian Chen found the fortune jade was not spared. Even all the peak organisations that belonged on the Desolate Plane had been searched countless times.

Even the Radiant Saint Hall that stood above the clouds had been visited by outsiders several times. They even almost ended up entering the Tower of Radiance, causing the leader of the Radiant Saint Hall to fly into a furious rage. He almost ended up fighting with the outsiders.

Similar occurrences happened with the other peak organisations on the Desolate Plane. Many of their forbidden grounds that had been deemed as an absolute secret had almost been intruded on by the outsiders.

During this time, the reckless actions of the outsiders had created a mess across the entire plane. Many organisations of various sizes complained about it.

However, with the current situation, the native organisations were helpless. They felt wronged, but there was nothing they could do about it. This was because as the outsiders and foreign clans and organisations rapidly increased in number, their strength gradually reached a point where they could suppress all the native organisations on the Desolate Plane.

Moreover, they used the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng as an excuse, which made the native organisations powerless.

However, these outsiders gradually became flustered after failing to find Jian Chen even after so long. A rumour that Jian Chen had already fled the Desolate Plane gradually made its way around.

“The only place that hasn’t been searched on the Desolate Plane is where the Celestial Sword Saint cultivates,” the foreign peak experts would communicate with one another frequently and discuss their thoughts. At that moment, some people began suspecting the Celestial Sword Saint.

“Do you think Jian Chen is hiding where the Celestial Sword Saint cultivates?”

“Do we have to go disturb the Celestial Sword Saint?”

“The Celestial Sword Saint is not an existence you’d want to provoke.”

...

The expressions of all the foreign experts changed when the Celestial Sword Saint was mentioned. They frowned.

“The Celestial Sword Saint is indeed not someone you’d want to provoke, but we’re assisting the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, helping her find her master’s Anatta Tower sooner. I refuse to believe that this Celestial Sword Saint would be bold enough to offend the first majesty. We all know exactly how terrifying she is.”

“Alright. Let’s gather some people and go visit the Celestial Sword Saint...”

Immediately, the outsiders quickly gathered over a dozen peak experts and went to where the Celestial Sword Saint cultivated.

The Celestial Sword Saint was an extremely great existence on the Desolate Plane. He was extremely powerful, possessing the title of the greatest expert on the Desolate Plane for many years. Across the entire plane, there were no organisations that dared to stand up to the Celestial Sword Saint.

The Sword God Mountains was an ancient mountain range on the Desolate Plane. Many sword-like mountains stood there. The Celestial Sword Saint spent most of his time cultivating there, without paying any attention to the matters around him.

On this day, over a dozen foreign experts came together. They were extremely polite and had come under the guise of visiting the Celestial Sword Saint. They wanted to search the Sword God Mountains for Jian Chen.

“Piss off!”

In the next moment, a deafening roar boomed out from the depths of the mountain. It rang out in a magnificent manner, where the terrifying sounds waves even cracked space. The voice was so powerful that it rang across the entire Desolate Plane.

A terrifyingly powerful sword intent radiated out from the depths of the Sword God Mountains with the voice. At that moment, the entire world seemed to have become a domain of sword Qi.

The expressions of all the peak experts changed. They were immediately forced back in a stagger.

“Celestial Sword Saint, we’re only helping the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. Why do you get in our way?” A middle-aged man called out from among the foreign experts.

“The person you’re looking for isn’t here. If you dare to say something else, I’ll take your head,” the Celestial Sword Saint replied in an overbearing manner.

The faces of the experts darkened and paled, but in the end, none of them dared to say anything more. They left in low spirits.
