Chapter 1624: One thousand sixty-two Underworld River Kill arrives_2
...
"The Star Lord truly lives up to the reputation of being one of the great sages with profound wisdom in the Prehistoric World; indeed, they do not take action lightly but when they do, it commands nothing but admiration."
"To reveal the restraining methods of the three supreme Open Heaven Treasures at this moment has made the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign and the Saint of Taiqing the target of all arrows. It seems in the following period, they will have to focus their main energy on guarding against the schemes of other powers."
"Therefore, the pressure facing the Star Lord has undoubtedly been greatly reduced."
"Even before the great calamity has begun, the camp of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign has started to fall into disarray. Their future is worrisome, and the odds of being defeated by the Star Lord are high."
Behind Jiang Chen, the congregation of Great Divine Transcendents from the Kunlun Mountains were sincerely convinced and had already decided to stand with him to contribute their strength towards reshaping the Chaos World of the Prehistoric Era.
Compared to Jiang Chen, the performance of Primordial Heavenly Sovereign is embarrassingly poor; following the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign seems hopeless, whereas following Jiang Chen, there is a possibility of achieving the way.
It is for this reason that people are flocking to Jiang Chen’s side.
In displaying his abilities to the world this time, Jiang Chen has done extremely well, convincing many indecisive Great Divine Transcendents to place their bets on him.
And some who had already decided to join Dongsheng Divine Continent but hadn’t taken action yet, are now internally wavering anew.
The one with a bigger fist makes the cogent argument. No matter how one argues, nothing is more persuasive than a convincing battle. This confrontation between Jiang Chen and the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign has once again proven his strength.
Even if a Saint holds a supreme Open Heaven Treasure, they still cannot hinder him.
...
"How malicious and toxic this child’s heart is!"
Outside of Chaos, within the Jade Void Holy Land, the true form of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign finally could not sit still any longer and stood up furiously from his seat, with a look of utter discomposure on his face.
If one were to ask who was the most anxious about this matter, it would definitely be the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign. Among the three teachings, most of his disciples belong to him.
If someone truly makes a move against the disciples of the three teachings, undoubtedly, the disciples of Chan Teaching, being the most numerous and largest target, will be the first to be attacked.
Thinking of this situation, how can the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign not be enraged? How can he not be anxious?
He did not expect that Jiang Chen could be so formidable, just by revealing a piece of news, he has plunged the three teachings into such an unfavorable predicament.
This is extremely disadvantageous. A moment of carelessness could mean heavy losses for the doctrine of the Saints, and at worst, they might even become history.
Having been in charge of Heaven and Earth for so many years, it’s impossible for the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign to not have enemies. There are undoubtedly many people in the world waiting to revel in his misfortune, and these people will certainly not spare their efforts to kick him when he’s down.
...
"Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, if you leave now, you may still preserve some dignity. If you don’t go, then you truly will lose even this last bit of face."
In front of the avatar of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, Jiang Chen spoke with a leisurely tone. At this point, the outcome is already set. No matter how the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign struggles, it’s impossible to turn the tide.
The Pangu Banner was his most powerful method, yet now it had been broken by Jiang Chen. Relying solely on this avatar, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign has no chance of being Jiang Chen’s opponent.
Unless his true body personally arrives, there might be a chance to alter the outcome, but this is obviously not possible.
"Jiang Chen, you!"
The avatar of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign was both shocked and furious, but he also knew that what Jiang Chen was saying is true.
Ever since the last battle with the avatar of the Saint of Taiqing, the strong powers across the world have confirmed that unless a real Saint intervenes, the avatars alone are not Jiang Chen’s match, no matter how many come at him.
This avatar of his, if it truly confronts Jiang Chen, may not even survive despite being protected by the Celestial Clouds.
An avatar is fundamentally different from the original form, which can merge with the Magic Treasures, but an avatar cannot, always separated by a barrier. Therefore, even though the Celestial Clouds are powerful, in the hands of an avatar, they cannot exert their full strength.
Had it not been for this fact, the Saint of Taiqing, who had been protected by the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Tower, would not have been slain by Jiang Chen. Being an avatar, the Saint of Taiqing could not receive the full protection of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Tower and therefore fell.
But to just leave like this would be tantamount to handing over Kunlun Mountain with both hands; the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign similarly cannot accept this result.
"Not necessarily. With the power of Kunlun’s origin blessing me, I may not lose!"
Ultimately unable to part with Kunlun Mountain, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign decided to fight Jiang Chen to the end.
As for dignity, heh, if Jiang Chen were to take Kunlun Mountain away, what dignity would he have left?
"Jiang Chen, if you dare to touch Kunlun Mountain, today I will fight you to the death."
With his mind made up, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign no longer hesitated, and his first move was a killing technique.
Boom!
Brilliant Dao light burst forth from the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign’s body, burning like a flame and radiating a rainbow of colors.
At the same time, the aura of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign began to surge uncontrollably, breaking through one realm after another, until finally stopping upon reaching the Primordial Chaos 5th Level.
That rainbow flame was the Origin Fire, the Martyrdom Flame. To repel Jiang Chen, the incarnation of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign chose to burn his own origin, using this method to forcibly boost his cultivation level.
After all, if defeated, this incarnation would not escape being slain by Jiang Chen. Death is certain either way, so why not risk everything in a final attempt.
"Not leaving?"
"That’s exactly what I want!"
The Primordial Heavenly Sovereign’s choice to fight to the death did not surprise Jiang Chen. Proud as the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign was, how could he choose to flee without a fight? Even in death, he must die with dignity – such is the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign.
"Underworld River friend, your opportunity has come. In a moment, I will find a way to hold off the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, creating an opening for your strike."
"Remember, you only have one chance. Make sure to kill with a single blow. Your ascension to sainthood depends on your performance now."
Jiang Chen did not strike first, instead, he cast a secret technique to transmit his message to the Underworld River Ancestor, who had just arrived.
Having already slain one saintly incarnation, Jiang Chen no longer needed to prove his strength in this manner.
Therefore, the incarnation of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign was prepared for the Underworld River Ancestor by Jiang Chen.
At that moment, the strength of the Underworld River Ancestor was at a critical point. He was just one slain saintly incarnation away from ascending to sainthood and stepping into the realm of the utmost saint.
But killing a saintly incarnation is not easy. The elements of opportunity, geographic advantage, and unity of people are indispensable. And now was the best opportunity.
With Jiang Chen holding off the incarnation of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, as long as the Underworld River Ancestor found the right moment, a successful single strike would settle everything.
Slaying the incarnation of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign to ascend was different from the original plan that Jiang Chen and the Underworld River Ancestor had set. Initially, although they had planned to kill the incarnation of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, their target was the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord, not the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign.
But isn’t this a golden opportunity?
Now that the Primordial Heavenly Demon Lord is nowhere to be found, and after searching everywhere in vain, it’s the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign who has delivered himself to the doorstep.
It’s a sin to not seize the gift of heaven. Since the opportunity has arisen, there’s no reason to hesitate. Achieve sainthood first, and worry about the consequences later!
Hence, with a spark of ingenuity, Jiang Chen called upon the recovering Underworld River Ancestor to seize the moment and strike at the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign.
The Underworld River Ancestor also knew opportunities like this were rare, and without any hesitation, he rushed over at full speed upon receiving the news from Jiang Chen.
His eagerness was primarily for two reasons. First was the rarity of the opportunity, and second, he realized that he had no room to refuse.
If he killed the incarnation of the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign, the Underworld River Ancestor would be unmistakably aligned against the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign. Having offended a saint, and wishing to stay alive, the only choice left for the Underworld River Ancestor would be to firmly tie his fate with the Human Race.
This was the main reason Jiang Chen helped the Underworld River Ancestor. By succeeding in this venture, we become our own people. Since we are our own people, of course, we must support each other to the fullest!
...
"Dao friend, rest assured, even though I could not cultivate while sealed all these years, I have not been idle, always delving into Divine Abilities, and I’ve had some modest success."
"If it were to slay a Saint, it might still be inadequate, but to deal with just a saintly incarnation, it is absolutely more than sufficient."
