Chapter 974: Resisting the Protector Clans (Four)

With a rumble, the Octoterra Divine Hall slowly rose up from the ground, taking to the air once again. Jian Chen’s voice rang out thunderously, booming through the surroundings.

“If you want to kill me, come! I’d like to see exactly who can kill me today.”

Jian Chen was unwilling to let up. With the divine hall protecting him, he had no reason to be cautious around the protector clans. He continued to use the divine hall to squash them into the earth like before.

All of them became utterly pale as they trembled in rage. They were so angry that they became silent. They were respected and worshipped by all the people on the continent. In all these years, they had never been bullied into such a horrible position.

Yi Yangzi struggled to remain calm as he roared out, “Jian Chen, don’t think you’re the only one with a Saint Emperor’s divine hall. Great elders, let’s bring out the divine hall,” as he spoke, Yi Yangzi swung his hand and a spatial crack immediately appeared. It formed a Space Gate to a part of the Yiyuan sect. Soon afterward, a suction force appeared from his hand and a palm-sized divine hall that sat on an altar immediately flew out.

It landed on Yi Yangzi’s hand and quickly expanded, reaching a length of three thousand meters in the blink of an eye. Yi Yangzi then flew into it and began piloting it furiously, smashing it toward Jian Chen’s divine hall.

The other great elders all cut open space and formed Space Gates as well, directly disappearing through them and returning to the protector clan. They were not as strong as Yi Yangzi, so they were unable to retrieve the divine hall like Yi Yangzi. As such, they could only go back personally.

Due to some rules in the protector clans, they could not become the masters of the divine halls like Jian Chen. Instead, the divine halls were enshrined in the protector clan and not carried with them. They could only be taken out during times of need, and were controlled using a secret technique.

Boom!

Yi Yangzi used his divine hall to collide violently with the Octoterra Divine Hall; it immediately produced a deafening boom. The terrifying energy ripples visibly expanded in all directions, causing the mountains below to collapse. Many rocks were reduced to dust.

Although divine halls did not possess much external offensive powers, they still contained the power of Saint Emperors. The collision of two divine halls in mid-air was akin to the clash of two Saint Emperors. Just the sound was enough to kill Heaven Saint Masters, ripping their souls to shreds.

Fortunately, the battleground had already moved several hundred kilometers. If it had occurred in the sky above Flame City, merely the sound waves from the collision would have been enough to kill off the entire city.

The two halls remained completely fine after colliding, but the powerful force knocked both of them backward.

Both sides were serious. As soon as the divine halls stabilized, they collided with one another viciously once again. It caused the earth to shake and countless mountains to collapse.

Very quickly, the other great elders returned from the Yiyuan sect with divine halls as well. They controlled one each, so there was a total of five including Yi Yangzi’s. They struck Jian Chen’s Octoterra Divine Hall threateningly to vent their anger.

“Argh!” Jian Chen produced a long wail. He was not afraid at all, controlling his divine hall to charge toward the other five halls with great force.

Currently, the conflict between Jian Chen and the Yiyuan sect had already been reduced to the collisions between divine halls. Although no one succeeded at injuring anyone, the battle was clearly still very intense.

The sound from the six divine halls grew even vaster. Terrifying sound waves wreaked havoc in the surroundings, to the point where even the space was ripped open. The mountains below collapsed one after another, while even the energy of the world was greatly affected. It began to churn violently.

The great disturbance from the constant collisions of the six divine halls had alerted all the peak-level experts on the continent.

Tian Jian sat with his eyes closed in mid-air within an unknown space. This space was part of a divine hall in Mercenary City. His eyebrows had become rather white.

Opposite of him sat the black-robed Ming Dong and the burly, bare-chested Tie Ta. They had always received the personal guidance of Tian Jian in the past few years, so they had powered up at a divine rate. A heavy aura currently filled their surroundings.

Suddenly, Tian Jian snapped open his eyes and a gleam of light flashed through them. He looked toward the void far away. His eyes seemed to be able to pierce through it, able to see far away.

“It’s actually a conflict between six divine halls. Five of them belong to the Yiyuan sect of the protector clans, so who’s controlling the other one? He actually dares to take the Yiyuan sect on as enemies,” murmured Tian Jian. He disappeared with a movement.
