3351: Another Usage of the Imprints

At this moment, the three illusionary figures composed of lingering wills arrived before Jian Chen again. Terrifying power condensed in their fists, which sailed through the air and shook up space, targeting Jian Chen’s head, heart, and dantian.

With a thought, Jian Chen immediately interfered with the attacks with the Laws of Space in an attempt to increase the distance between them.

But it failed this time. The power behind the three illusionary fists was far too great. They were like independent domains isolated from Jian Chen’s Laws of Space, allowing them to remain unaffected by his Laws of Space to a certain degree.

But shortly afterwards, three colossal spatial blades suddenly appeared with blinding light.

They were completely condensed from the power of laws, so they possessed startling power. They could easily slice through meteors.

The three spatial blades moved swiftly, immediately landing on the heads of the three illusionary figures.

Having endured the attack, the three illusionary figures immediately distorted.

Jian Chen’s attack had failed to directly destroy them, but it had clearly caused some damage. Their figures immediately became slightly fainter.

But despite that, it was still not enough to stop their punches. Jian Chen could only use the Laws of Space to evade two of their attacks by a hair’s breadth. In the end, he wielded his arm as a sword and launched a startling strand of sword Qi, slamming against the third punch.

Their clash was like the collision between two colossal meteorites. A tremendous explosion erupted and powerful energy surged out. Jian Chen was launched afar once again.

This time, the skin on his entire right arm became covered with cracks.

At this moment, the might of the world descended. The Jade Heaven Ruler on the other side used a God Tier Battle Skill. An illusionary sword landed on one of the figures.

Boom!

With a great rumble, the Jade Heaven Ruler’s God Tier Battle Skill blasted away one of the illusionary figures by several dozen metres. It became even fainter.

However, after using the God Tier Battle Skill, the Jade Heaven Ruler could no longer spare the strength to fend off the second illusionary figure, allowing it to land a punch on her shoulder.

Crack! The Jade Heaven Ruler’s left shoulder bone was immediately shattered. Despite being equipped with medium quality god artifact armour, she was still unable to avoid becoming injured. ????????????r????????????. ????????????

The figure that endured the Jade Heaven Ruler’s God Tier Battle Skill stabilised itself very quickly. Its hollow eyes filled with killing intent were fixed on the Jade Heaven Ruler. Right when it was about to launch another attack, Jian Chen appeared silently behind it. He unleashed the Laws of Space and the Laws of the Sword at the same time, which turned into sword that slashed against its body.

Having endured the Jade Heaven Ruler’s God Tier Battle Skill and now Jian Chen’s full-powered attack, the illusionary figure was immediately heavily injured. Its body became extremely feeble, while its figure had been reduced to a cloud of mist, making it seem like it could dissipate at any moment.

However, just when Jian Chen wanted to continue with his attacks and completely kill the figure, the illusionary figure shot back with lightning speed and immediately returned to the ancestral imprint. It inhaled and absorbed wisps of essence from the ancestral imprint immediately.

With this replenishment of energy, its illusionary figure rapidly began to recover. In a few seconds, it had made a complete recovery.

Jian Chen and the Jade Heaven Ruler who witnessed this together both had their hearts sink inside.

The Jade Heaven Ruler had weakened it after so much difficulty at the cost of sustaining injuries herself, yet it had recovered in the blink of an eye. How were they supposed to fight like this?

“We’ll retreat for now!” Jian Chen called out. With a flash, he arrived before the Jade Heaven Ruler and grabbed her by the shoulder, vanishing immediately and leaving this place.

The five illusionary figures did not go after them. They returned to the ancestral imprint and sat down before it. Then they shut their eyes and seemingly returned to cultivation as if nothing had happened at all.

A hundred kilometres away, Jian Chen and the Jade Heaven Ruler erased their presences and stood there silently. Their eyes were locked on the five illusionary figures with their eyebrows firmly locked together.

“They’re not Wood Spirits.” Suddenly, the Jade Heaven Ruler communicated to Jian Chen.

“They indeed are not,” Jian Chen replied.

The Jade Heaven Ruler suddenly turned towards Jian Chen. Her eyes flickered. “If I’ve guessed correctly, you come from the same place as them, right?”

Before Jian Chen could answer, the Jade Heaven Ruler continued, “Jian Chen, stop trying to fool us. For such a powerful ruler capable of such mysterious things to suddenly appear in our Wood Spirits World, that in itself is anything but normal.”

“Our Wood Spirits World is only so large. It’s impossible for a ruler to appear out of nowhere.”

“Moreover, you were heavily injured as soon as you appeared, which was even more illogical, as no one in the Wood Spirits World can threaten you given your strength, nor is there anyone capable of making you so heavily injured.”

“Don’t use cultivation as an excuse either. As one of the three rulers of the Wood Spirits World, I’m not as foolish as you think I am.”

“You’re from the same place as these people. Am I right?” The Jade Heaven Ruler stared at Jian Chen with great interest.

Jian Chen turned towards the Jade Heaven Ruler and said seriously, “You’re right. I am indeed not a Wood Spirit. I come from the Saints’ World, while the experts that are responsible for these lingering wills are also from the Saints’ World.”

“The Saints’ World? What kind of place is that?” The Jade Heaven Ruler narrowed her eyes.

“Right now is not the time to discuss this. If you want to know, I’ll tell you once we leave here. In short, you only need to understand that I have no ill intentions,” said Jian Chen.

The Jade Heaven Ruler glanced at Jian Chen deeply. After a moment of thought, she did not ask him any more. Instead, she turned towards the five figures before her.

“They’re very powerful. I wonder how powerful they were when they were still alive.” The Jade Heaven Ruler sighed in amazement.

“They’ve already been dead for countless years. Just their lingering wills following their deaths is so powerful, so it’s extremely likely for these people to be Grand Primes when they were still alive,” Jian Chen answered sternly. He stared ahead and said, “We’re not their opponent in direct confrontations. Through the ancestral imprint, they’re basically indestructible as well, so we can only obtain the ancestral imprint through a plan.”

“Back up a little. I’ll try and see if I can retrieve the ancestral imprint through the Laws of Space.”

The Jade Heaven Ruler immediately backed up, vanishing from his view very quickly. With her departure, Jian Chen immediately reached towards the ancestral imprint a hundred kilometres away.

The space around the ancestral imprint immediately twisted slightly.

But at this moment, the five figures around the ancestral imprint all opened their eyes. A tremendous pressure radiated from them, directly disrupting Jian Chen’s Laws of Space, such that the space around the ancestral imprint fell back into peace.

Afterwards, the five of them shut their eyes again.

In the distance, Jian Chen was intrigued as he thought, “They seem to be incapable of sight. They can only detect the disturbances within a certain range through their senses?”

After a moment of thought, Jian Chen took action once again. He suddenly vanished, directly appearing above the ancestral imprint through teleportation. He reached out and directly reached towards the ancestral imprint.

Boom!

However, with a great rumble, the five figures struck at the same time. Before Jian Chen’s hand even touched the ancestral imprint, their attacks all landed on him.

With a grunt, blood immediately sprayed out from Jian Chen’s mouth. He was launched away like a cannonball.

The five figures took advantage of this situation and directly pursued him.

However, when they reached thirty thousand metres away from the ancestral imprint, they all stopped without setting another foot forwards. Then all of them returned to the ancestral imprint at the same time.

A hundred kilometres away, Jian Chen sat in the air with a rather pale complexion. There were still traces of blood on the corner of his lips. Having taken on the attacks of the five figures, he was quite injured even with the Chaotic Body.

“Thirty thousand metres. They won’t travel more than thirty thousand metres away from the ancestral imprint?” Jian Chen stared at the five figures a hundred kilometres away and furrowed his brows.

Thirty thousand metres to an expert like them was far too short. They could cover that distance instantly.

Just earlier, he was thinking about leading the five figures away if he truly ran out of options, to lure them far away and then loop back to retrieve the ancestral imprint.

But now, that clearly would not work.

“So be it. We’ll just give up on this ancestral imprint. We’ll take another path.” Jian Chen shook his head powerlessly and reunited with the Jade Heaven Ruler very quickly.

The Jade Heaven Ruler was rather hesitant about that. “Jian Chen, if you want Lifesoul Flowers to grow as quickly as possible, it’s best if you collect some ancestral imprints.”

Jian Chen was surprised. “Don’t tell me ancestral imprints have effects on the growth of Lifesoul Flowers?”

The Jade Heaven Ruler nodded. “Ancestral imprints contain the powerful energy of life. They can nourish everything. As something to accelerate growth, there is obviously no better alternative than ancestral imprints.”

“There are no materials that can rival ancestral imprints when it comes to accelerating growth. However, no one ever chooses to be so wasteful.” New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.nᴇt

With a flip of his hand, an ancestral imprint immediately appeared in his hand. He looked towards the Jade Heaven Ruler. “So how do you use it?”

Looking at the ancestral imprint, the Jade Heaven Ruler shook her head. “This is the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s ancestral imprint. It has the presence of his soul. To ancestral imprints, gaining a master can also be described as a form of defilement. Once they’re defiled, they can’t be used to accelerate growth.”

“Furthermore, once an ancestral imprint has a master, it can’t ever be changed, so the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King’s ancestral imprint does not serve any practical uses in your hands.”

“What you require are ancestral imprints without masters, ones in their purest forms without having been defiled. Only those ancestral imprints can be used to accelerate growth.”

The Jade Heaven Ruler explained to Jian Chen patiently.

“So according to what you said, I still have to find a way to get my hands on the ancestral imprint guarded by the five lingering wills.” Jian Chen felt pained. He had witnessed the strength of the five figures. They were basically indestructible, so they were very difficult to deal with.
