Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3233: A Terrifying Sight (1)

On the Desolate Plane, in the headquarters of the Radiant Saint Hall, a huge barrier of light draped down from the sky, forming a hemispherical, milky-white cover around the entire Radiant Saint Hall.

There were powerful formations upon powerful formations within this energy barrier. The power of the formations seeped out, giving off an alarming pressure.

Compared to the past, the defences of the Radiant Saint Hall had become visibly stronger.

However, the protective formations of the Radiant Saint Hall clearly were not completely active. Instead, they were half-inactive. Radiant Saint Masters dressed in long, white robes moved through the only passageway into the Radiant Saint Hall, gaining access by showing their identity tablets and passing through the barrier and the formations.

Jian Chen hid himself with the powers of space near the Radiant Saint Hall. He hovered there silently. None of the Radiant Saint Masters that moved around detected him.

He slowly put on the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race, and his presence immediately changed. He actually became identical to a Hallowed Saint Master that was just about to return to the Radiant Saint Hall.

When the tablet in the Hallow Saint Master’s hand passed through the barrier and formations around the Radiant Saint Hall, Jian Chen vanished as well.

His presence overlapped with the Hallowed Saint Master’s such that he was like a shadow. He followed right behind him when he passed through the formation, immediately flying through the barrier and formations and infiltrating the Radiant Saint Hall.

“Hmm?” The Hallowed Saint Master seemed to sense something, looking back in suspicion, but he found nothing. He immediately scratched his head in doubt.

The Soaring Clouds Peak was one of the main peaks of the Radiant Saint Hall, but despite being nothing special in the past, it had become extremely special in recent years.

This was all because the lord of the Soaring Clouds Peak, Han Xin, was now one of the protectors of the Radiant Saint Hall. Since he possessed a protector sword, he had already become a part of the Radiant Saint Hall’s strongest force.

It was not just Han Xin. Even Han Xin’s disciple, Bai Yu, had become one of the protectors.

The Soaring Cloud Peak that was originally nothing specially was actually now inhabited by two protectors, which obviously made it extremely special. It possessed an extremely great and respected status in the Radiant Saint Hall.

With Han Xin and Bai Yu’s identities as protectors, their status had completely surpassed all of the vice hall masters. Originally, there was no reason for them to remain on the Soaring Clouds Peak. Instead, they should have transferred over to the sacred hall that stood beyond the clouds.

However, under their insistence, the two of them remained on the Soaring Clouds Peak.

At this moment, on the top of the Soaring Clouds Peak, Han Xin sat by a cliff in his robes of a Hallowed Saint Master. The Laws of the Hallowed flew around him. Clearly, he was currently cultivating.

“Teacher!”

At this moment, a sudden voice rang out from behind Han Xin.

Han Xin opened his eyes slowly and smiled in delight. He turned around slowly and immediately noticed Jian Chen standing behind him.

Jian Chen had already removed the mask, revealing his original appearance.

However, his real identity and appearance had stopped being a secret a long time ago to the upper echelon of the Radiant Saint Hall.

“You’ve come! Take a seat!” Han Xin smiled especially amicably. His expression was kind. He took out a jade table and a tea set, preparing to make tea.

“We should drink my tea instead,” said Jian Chen. He immediately took out the Comprehension Tea and began brewing tea.

“Your tea should be nothing ordinary.” Han Xin noticed how special the Comprehension Tea was, but he failed to identify it.

“This is Comprehension Tea. It can assist people in comprehending the laws,” said Jian Chen.

Han Xin was surprised. He smiled faintly. “That would be quite wrong of you to not invite your junior sister to have a cup of something so rare.” Han Xin immediately passed on a message and called over Bai Yu who stayed halfway up the mountain.

“Ah! Senior brother, you’ve come!” As soon as she saw Jian Chen, Bai Yu was both surprised and overjoyed. She wore the robes of the Radiant Saint Hall and wore a pair of white boots. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail as she skipped over from the distance excitedly.

“Senior brother, when did you come? Why didn’t you let me know? Teacher Han Xin had to contact me instead.” Bai Yu sat down in front of the table and stared at Jian Chen with her large, bright eyes while frowning.

As soon as he saw Bai Yu, Jian Chen felt like he had returned to the past, to the days when he cultivated on the Soaring Clouds Peak with Bai Yu.

He could not help but reminisce. He smiled faintly. “I’ve only just arrived. I was about to call you, but our teacher beat me to it.”

“Hmph, liar!” Bai Yu pouted. She refused to believe him.

“Jian Chen, with your current strength and status, it really leaves me delighted that you’re still willing to recognise me as your teacher,” said Han Xin emotionally. He watched Jian Chen as he made tea seriously.

“A day as a teacher, a father for life!” Jian Chen said seriously.

The three of them chatted. Suddenly, Han Xin seemed to remember something. His expression became mixed. “Jian Chen, since you’ve come to the Radiant Saint Hall, you should pay a visit to the Tower of Radiance. The artifact spirit has already awakened completely. It knows some secrets regarding the Martial Soul lineage.”

Jian Chen’s eyes immediately shone when he heard the Martial Soul lineage. He had obtained a Grand Exalt’s cultivation method from the Tower of Radiance in the past, the Method of the Exalted Saint. However, he had always possessed doubts regarding the Method of the Exalted Saint.

“I will pay a visit to the Tower of Radiance, but I’ve actually come to the Radiant Saint Hall this time for something else. I want to enter the World of Moon and Star again!” Jian Chen said.

“You want to go to the World of Moon and Star?” Han Xin glanced at Jian Chen with some surprise. He said in thought, “That’s not too difficult. As protectors, we can get the elders to open the World of Moon and Star for you anytime we want.”

As they spoke, Jian Chen had already finished brewing the tea. He personally poured a cup for Bai Yu and Han Xin. “Drink it while it’s hot, or its effects will weaken.”

Han Xin smiled at him before drinking all of the tea.

Immediately, the dense power of ways filled his face. Han Xin crossed his legs subconsciously and immediately entered a state of cultivation. Around him, the Laws of the Hallowed pulsed, growing stronger and stronger, clearer and clearer.

“T-teacher is breaking through just like this?” Bai Yu was taken aback. She was astounded.

Jian Chen nodded and said, “Teacher has been stuck at Godking for a very long time. He’s already consolidated his cultivation enough. All he’s missing from reaching the Primordial realm is just that step.”

“If he didn’t have the Comprehension Tea, who knows how much longer the final step would obstruct master for. Now, master can finally reach the Primordial realm in one fell swoop under the assistance of Comprehension Tea.”

Bai Yu’s eyes shone brightly as she listened to Jian Chen’s explanation. She also drank all of the tea eagerly.

Immediately, the power of ways permeated the surroundings, and Bai Yu also entered a state of cultivation. However, she did not break through like Han Xin. Instead, she remained at her original cultivation.

“Bai Yu’s talent is just a little poor at the end of the day!” Jian Chen thought. His current horizons were much broader than before. In the Radiant Saint Hall, Bai Yu could be considered as a genius, but in Jian Chen’s eyes, her talent was rather ordinary.

With that cup of Comprehension Tea, Bai Yu did not break through. Instead, she remained at the same cultivation as before, late Deity!

Several days later, Han Xin finally reached the Primordial realm that he had been working towards for all this time. With the increase in his strength, he could control the protector sword in his possession with greater expertise.

On top of that, due to Jian Chen’s shielding, obscuring everything with the Laws of Space, Han Xin’s breakthrough did not attract any attention.

“This truly is Comprehension Tea. I never expected to make it through the bottleneck that’s kept me trapped for all these years just like that.” Han Xin was emotional. Then he stood up and said, “Jian Chen, why don’t I take you to the Tower of Radiance first? I’d advise you to pay a visit there first before you go to the World of Moon and Star.”

“Fair enough!” Jian Chen nodded in agreement. He had brought the artifact spirit of the Tower of Radiance up from the lower world. Now that so many years had passed, he also wanted to check on the artifact spirit’s current condition.
