After assembling the fifty thousand Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals, the strength of the Divine Formation of the Heavens had already increased substantially. It could not be stopped without the strength of the Seventh Heavenly Layer now.

If the Space-splitting Venerable only possessed strength at the Sixth Heavenly Layer and lacked his foundations at the Seventh Heavenly Layer, the injuries he would have suffered would have been far more than this.

However, after launching two attacks, the Divine Formation of the Heavens began to dim as well. Its power had virtually run out.

Of course, the primary reason for this was the fifty thousand Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals. Their energy was limited in the first place. Now that they were being used to power the incomplete Divine Formation of the Heavens, they could only launch two strikes.

Without them, they would probably struggle to even assemble the incomplete Divine Formation of the Heavens with just several dozen Immortal Monarchs and a few Immortal Emperors!

“Yang Yutian, I’ve finally found you. Looks like your formation can’t launch a third attack.” An excited voice rang out from the screen of light created by the Divine Formation of the Heavens. An old man appeared silently, extending his hand towards Jian Chen with lightning speed.

Jian Chen had seen this person before. He was one of the owners of the medicinal gardens in the Skyscraping World. He had assembled at the entrance of the Skyscraping World with the other owners.

Originally, this person had only come for the heavenly resources they had lost in the Skyscraping World. They wanted to retrieve them.

But after learning that Jian Chen possessed a sovereign god artifact, many of them changed their goals.

It was not just the sovereign god artifact. Even the Divine Formation of the Heavens in Jian Chen’s possession had also become their target.

Bang!

With a heavy sound, the old man’s hand was blocked by the screen of light formed by the Divine Formation of the Heavens. The screen of light shook violently and rapidly became covered in cracks like it would shatter at any time.

Although the Divine Formation of the Heavens was capable of both offence and defence, its defences came nowhere close to its offensive power. Coupled with the fact that it had already launched two attacks, the power of the formation had virtually run out. That was why blocking the attack from the Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt had almost pushed it to its limits.

Jian Chen furrowed his brows. Meanwhile, the hearts of the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt and the Immortal Emperors who assembled the formation sank inside. They could all sense that the Divine Formation of the Heavens was already nearing collapse. It could not launch any more attacks.

The old man also sensed that the Divine Formation of the Heavens was close to shattering. He immediately let out a sneer and struck out again, swinging out with his great power as a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.

“Sect master, let me block him!” The Thousand Soul Demon Exalt called out. He left his position in the formation. Powerful demon Qi spread out, turning into a powerful shield in front of them.

After the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt left the formation, the colossal Divine Formation of the Heavens also vanished, having been pulled back inside by the tremendous power of the Primeval Divine Hall.

Immediately, all of the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals, Immortal Monarchs, and Immortal Emperors vanished. Only the Immortal Devouring Orchid remained outside.

The Immortal Devouring Orchid took action at almost the same time as the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt. Many of its tendrils began to grow, each becoming extremely thick. They wove together and formed a thick barrier in front of them.

Boom!

At this exact moment, the attack from the old man arrived. With a heavy sound, his palm strike shattered the shield that the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt had condensed with his demon Qi in an unstoppable manner.

The Thousand Soul Demon Exalt sprayed with blood. He collided heavily against the Immortal Devouring Orchid behind him. The great force even knocked the huge Immortal Devouring Orchid backwards.

After repelling the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt, the old man’s palm strike still possessed some remaining strength. It struck into the wall that the Immortal Devouring Orchid had woven from its tendrils. The wall of green plant matter directly shattered. All of the vines, large or small, were shredded to pieces, spraying in all directions.

The Immortal Devouring Orchid shuddered violently. Cracks immediately appeared on its huge main trunk. Green liquid seeped out.

They were up against a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt after all. Even when the Immortal Devouring Orchid and the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt worked together, they struggled to stop his attack.

However, because the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt had received the attack first, the damage that the Immortal Devouring Orchid received was well below the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt’s. Coupled with its virtually indestructible ability, the crack on its main stalk quickly stopped spreading. Even its severed tendrils began to regrow at a visible rate.

Meanwhile, the old man’s palm strike had been completely nullified.

Jian Chen appeared. He used the Laws of Space to shoot past the Thousand Soul Demon Exalt and the Immortal Devouring Orchid, fleeing into the distance with them as quickly as he could. He did not hesitate or pause for even a split second.

That was because apart from the Divine Formation of the Heavens, he did not possess any other abilities to threaten Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts right now.

Even though he had made significant progress with the Hundred Superimposition Sword recently, he had only comprehended it to the eighth layer.

Eight layers was equivalent to multiplying his battle prowess by eight. However, with his foundations as a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor, even if it was eight times in strength, he could not threaten a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt at all.

The difference in cultivation was far too great!

“Yang Yutian, don’t even think about escaping this time!” The old man roared furiously from behind. He had already gained a good grasp over some of Jian Chen’s techniques and methods from the people who emerged from the Skyscraping World. He did not dare to waste any time, chasing after him as quickly as he could.

With just a single step, he appeared in front of Jian Chen, blocking his path perfectly.

This was not the Skyscraping World. Without the restraints of the special environment inside the Skyscraping World, he could cross the entire Reverent Observance Heaven with a few steps given his cultivation at the Sixth Heavenly Layer.

On top of that, with this short delay, more and more Immortal Exalts arrived. Even the weakest was at the Fourth Heavenly Layer.

As for early Immortal Exalts, perhaps they were aware of their capabilities, so they did not participate this time.

“This person massacred a million clansmen of my Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants. He’s brought my Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants to near extinction. This is unforgivable. Anyone who wants to contend against me for him will be making an enemy out of my Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants and me…” The Space-splitting Venerable who gradually recovered his strength chased over as well. His eyes were completely red, having fallen into rage and fury as he roared at the sky.

As the Space-splitting Venerable’s tremendous presence as a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt filled the surroundings, some of the Immortal Exalts who arrived nearby showed wariness in their eyes.

However, it was only wariness. Just the Space-splitting Venerable alone was not enough to make these people retreat.

This was a battle for opportunity and fortune after all, as well as a chance to change their fates. Before such temptations, even if there were heavenly emperors in the way, they would still try their luck.

On the other side, Jian Chen’s path had only just been blocked when he activated the Divine Armour of Heavenflight. He vanished entirely from the surroundings along with his presence.

The arriving Immortal Exalts were not surprised at all. In the next moment, a few of them struck out at the same time, shaking up the space with their powerful cultivations.

With their cultivations that had reached mid Immortal Exalt at the very least, coupled with so many people working together, the force that shook up the space was so great that it interfered with almost half of the Reverent Observance Heaven. It made the space in this region shake violently. Countless sects and cities were affected.
