Chapter 3447: The Power of the Dominion’s Brush

Fang Jing sensed the killing intent from the Ice Goddess, which gave her pins and needles. She had never been so stern before.

She could tell with a single glance that the Ice Goddess’s killing intent towards Jian Chen was extremely great!

It had almost reached the level where she would never stop until she succeeded!

For a mighty sovereign of a world to develop such strong killing intent towards a measly Chaotic Prime was indeed extremely rare.

Suddenly, the temperature in the chaotic sea plummeted. As the Laws of Ice spread out, a bone-chilling presence immediately assaulted Fang Jing and Jian Chen.

An icicle only the size of a finger silently condensed before the Ice Goddess, radiating with the presence of the Laws of Ice.

She had only created it casually. With a single thought, she had used a wisp of the Laws of Ice to condense an attack.

After all, in her eyes, Jian Chen was far too weak, so weak that even describing him as an ant was no exaggeration at all. She did not even have to move a finger to kill such an existence. Just a thought was enough.

When the icicle appeared, Jian Chen felt bone-piercing coldness overwhelm him. An unprecedented threat of death loomed over his heart, such that he was unable to muster any strength to fight back.

Before the Ice Goddess, even if he used everything available to him, it was useless. Even if he brought out the sword spirits or even the Primeval Divine Hall, they definitely could not stop the Ice Goddess.

However, Fang Jing standing beside him clearly had no plans to simply stand by and watch. She responded extremely swiftly. As soon as the icicle had condensed, the power she had been secretly building up immediately erupted.

She was not arrogant enough to attack the Ice Goddess. Instead, she swung the Dominion’s Brush in her hand as hard as she could, immediately writing the word “flight” in the space there.

Jian Chen and Fang Jing directly vanished. Both their traces and presences were nowhere to be seen. Even the presence that had locked onto Jian Chen was forcefully severed. Afterwards, Fang Jing gripped the Dominion’s Brush firmly and rapidly fled with Jian Chen.

The Ice Goddess was slightly surprised and murmured, “No wonder Overarching Heavens struggled to find any trace of you despite watching the Saints’ World for several thousand years. With the brush in hand, even I can’t find you if you hide.”

“However, this is not the Saints’ World. In the chaotic sea, since you’ve already been exposed, you can’t escape anymore.”

As soon as the Ice Goddess said that, the tiny icicle condensed right before her exploded. Terrifying coldness swelled forth with a wisp of the Laws of Ice, spreading rapidly into the surroundings as a shockwave.

This was the handiwork of a Grand Exalt. Even the shockwave possessed unbelievable power. In an instant, it had reached billions of kilometres away in the chaotic sea.

Of course, the shockwave could not create any alarming disturbances or much damage here, but it exposed Jian Chen and Fang Jing again when it reached them.

In the next moment, the Ice Goddess appeared behind Fang Jing like she had teleported. Killing intent flashed through her eyes. She extended her finger and a sword of ice immediately appeared. The dense presence of ways circulated through it.

Swish!

The sword of ice radiated with a mighty power that could seal everything in ice, slashing towards Fang Jing mercilessly.

Fang Jing also erupted with a mighty presence. Her cultivation as a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime surged furiously. She swung the Dominion’s Brush and struck the sword of ice as hard as she could.

Boom!

The Dominion’s Brush and the sword of ice directly clashed. With a great rumble, the sword of ice was actually smashed to pieces by the Dominion’s Brush, but countless shards of ice shot towards Fang Jing, easily piercing the protective energy around her. With a series of spurts, the ice shards of various sizes plunged deeply into her body like arrows.

Fang Jing trembled. Over a dozen bloody holes appeared on her body with blood trickling out.

But shortly afterwards, a presence of extreme coldness erupted inside her, covering her rapidly in a layer of ice crystals. Before her blood could even emerge, it was already frozen.

Fang Jing retreated rapidly. Her face paled. She used her tremendous energy to contend against the coldness in her body, fleeing rapidly with Jian Chen.

......

…

Elsewhere in the chaotic sea, near the Saints’ World, there was a sudden rumble as the Anatta Grand Exalt used her fourth law. The four ways were all unleashed, turning into a terrifying force that could overwhelm all the sovereigns present. She sent the Samsaric Immortal Exalt flying with the wheel of samsara behind him dimming.

However, Anatta had first suffered a backlash from the ways, so she was already injured. Then she used the four ways to overwhelm Daowei Fatian earlier, so her condition was already much worse than before. As a result, when she used the four laws now, her injuries finally lost control and erupted completely.

Spurt! Blood sprayed out from the Anatta Grand Exalt’s mouth. Her face also turned pale. She used the four ways to repel the Samsaric Immortal Exalt, but she also ended up suffering even greater damage.

But at this moment, she completely disregarded her injuries. She disregarded the Samsaric Immortal Exalt as well, about to fly off into the depths of the chaotic sea.

Four sword intents swept over. The four divine swords shone with blinding light, weaving together and establishing a supreme sword formation that targeted the Anatta Grand Exalt.

“Piss off!” The Anatta Grand Exalt flew into a fury. The light of ways around her surged violently. She directly swung out with her hand, sending the four divine swords flying with the power of four laws.

Afterwards, blood sprayed from her mouth again. She tottered in the chaotic sea as if she struggled to keep her balance.

In the next moment, she vanished into the depths of the chaotic sea.

With her departure, the Samsaric Immortal Exalt immediately signalled at the four divine swords and went straight for the Wind Venerable’s world membrane.

This time, their target was not to destroy Ancient Paths’ artifact but to rescue Daowei Fatian.

“You can’t escape. However, the brush in your possession is quite exceptional. It actually managed to destroy my attack. Unfortunately, you’re just too weak.” The Ice Goddess appeared before Fang Jing on the other side of the chaotic sea, blocking her path.

Once she caught the attention of a Grand Exalt in the chaotic sea, she would struggle to escape even if she possessed the Dominion’s Brush.

The Dominion’s Brush could erase her presence, but Grand Exalts could immediately destroy the effect.

After all, this was not the Saints’ World. If this was the Saints’ World, she could instantly cross billions of kilometres with her strength. It was possible to say that once she erased her presence, she would immediately escape from the Grand Exalts’ range of control.

In the Saints’ World, there were many living people as well, so even Grand Exalts did not dare to fight as recklessly as they did in the chaotic sea.

Gazing at the Ice Goddess ahead, Fang Jing became extremely stern, but determination soon filled her face. She began to burn her essence blood.

Immediately, her presence rapidly rose. She even stopped fending off the coldness in her body, instead mobilising all of her energy, pouring it into the Dominion’s Brush at a furious rate.

A profound presence radiated from the Dominion’s Brush. Fang Jing sprayed a mouthful of essence blood onto it, making its presence rise a little more. In the end, she violently swung the brush at the Ice Goddess.

With that, the chaos shuddered as the space churned. A mysterious power radiated from the Dominion’s Brush, immediately forming a seal in this place with Fang Jing’s energy, enveloping the Ice Goddess.

After doing all that, Fang Jing lost all of her power as well, collapsing in the chaos immediately.

That was because at that instant, the Dominion’s Brush had already drained all the energy in a Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime.

Now, Fang Jing was completely devoid of energy. She had already staked everything on that attack.

Without the suppression of her energy, the coldness in her body erupted, rapidly spreading through Fang Jing.

Fang Jing’s gaze became dull. She was extremely feeble. On top of that, her body was becoming rapidly sealed in ice.

In the final moments, she used all of her strength to reach out, extracting a wisp of Jian Chen’s presence before handing the Dominion’s Brush to him. She said weakly, “I’ve… merged… your presence… into the Dominion’s Brush. You… can temporarily… control the Dominion’s Brush… Quick… take me… away from here… the Ice Goddess… won’t be trapped… for long…”

After saying that, Fang Jing directly fainted before becoming completely covered in ice. She was reduced to an ice statue.

Jian Chen clutched the Dominion’s Brush and a strange sensation immediately bloomed inside him. At that moment, he felt as if he grasped the supreme power in the world, allowing him to make the world answer his beckon.

He subconsciously turned towards the Ice Goddess and his eyes narrowed slightly. He discovered that the Ice Goddess was actually trapped in a prison.

This prison had clearly been constructed from the Dominion’s Brush’s power!

Jian Chen did not hesitate. With the Dominion’s Brush in one hand and Fang Jing in the other, he immediately left.

However, in the chaotic space, even when he used his full speed, he did not even come close to a tenth of Fang Jing’s speed.

It was not an exaggeration to say that he was as slow as a snail compared to Fang Jing.

The Ice Goddess did not even glance at Jian Chen as she was trapped in the prison. Her cold eyes shone with intrigue as she studied the prison that trapped her.

“This power… doesn’t come from any of the six worlds… It’s rather similar to the power of the book.” Reaching this conclusion, the Ice Goddess immediately became serious. She murmured to herself, “The two powers are different but there are similarities. Don’t tell me the brush and the book come as a pair?”

“This brush can’t be allowed to return to the Immortals’ World!” The Ice Goddess’s eyes turned cold as the Laws of Ice and Snow began to surge violently. The prison that trapped her immediately let out cracking sounds. The power of the prison rapidly diminished.

In just a few seconds, the prison shattered with a great rumble.

In such a short amount of time, Jian Chen had not fled far at all with Fang Jing who had been turned into an ice sculpture. He did not even leave the Ice Goddess’s range of vision.

The Ice Goddess turned her head, directly locking onto Jian Chen.

At that instant, all of Jian Chen’s hairs stood on end. A chill ran down his spine. He subconsciously looked backwards. A thumb-sized icicle rapidly expanded in his eyes, pressing closer with the aura of death.

Without any thought, Jian Chen directly thrust out with the Dominion’s Brush. His presence that had been left in the Dominion’s Brush by Fang Jing came into use at this moment, allowing him to use a wisp of its power.

With a thunk, the Dominion’s Brush shattered the icicle, but Jian Chen’s right hand that held the brush immediately erupted. The terrifying power moved through the brush and turned his arm into mush.

The power continued to spread through his arm to every inch of his body, which immediately heavily injured Jian Chen. His bones were destroyed and even his organs were pulverised.

That was merely the power behind a single icicle.

He had shattered the Ice Goddess’s attack with the Dominion’s Brush, but the great force was still beyond what he could endure.

Immediately, Jian Chen began to bleed all over. He was covered in blood, without an inch of skin intact. Organ fragments constantly sprayed out from his mouth as he coughed violently.

His blood had dyed the Dominion’s Brush red. Droplets of chaotic blood dripped onto it.

But at this moment, the chaotic blood that dripped onto the Dominion’s Brush rapidly vanished.

No, it did not vanish. Instead, it was absorbed. Even Jian Chen failed to notice that the Dominion’s Brush was absorbing his chaotic blood.

After absorbing the chaotic blood, the Dominion’s Brush seemed to unlock some kind of restraint. At the same time, it seemed as if it had been awakened from its slumber. An imposing and ancient presence spread out, growing stronger over time. In the end, as if the gate to a primordial universe had been opened, a startling pressure erupted.
