Chapter 3002 – Green Cloud Barrier
“Did you say you want to get the Crystal Sword? Humph. Please don’t overestimate yourself, do you think you deserve it?”
Yue Changzhi was talking to Xue Liang with a cold smile. This guy was too confident with himself. It was impossible for them to seize anything from there.
“Without the permission from the Profound Connection Divine Palace, you can’t take anything from here.”
The Third Elder was looking at Jiang Chen, Xue Liang and Bing Yun with cold eyes.
“What makes you say that?”
Bing Yun said coldly. This elder was so arrogant and selfish, he did not have the right to stop them from doing anything.
“Third Elder, please don’t forget who is the one who broke the formation.”
Jiang Chen said coldly. This guy was totally shameless and despicable, even after he broke the formation and entered the Great Emperor’s Tomb.
“I said no, I meant it. If the three of you could survive this, you guys should follow me back to the Profound Connection Divine Palace and you will receive the punishment you deserved. But if you guys could find some treasure here, perhaps you could make amends for your mistakes. But anything here doesn’t belong to you, so you have no right to take it.”
The Third Elder said with a gloomy smile.
Even Qian Renji could not bear with this but she could not do anything about it. The Third Elder was the leader of the journey so most of them just remained silent.
The Third Elder was truly shameless. Without Jiang Chen, they would not be able to enter the core of the Great Emperor’s Tomb. But the Third Elder was trying to drive Jiang Chen and the others out of the place and stop them from taking anything. It seemed their kindness was repaid with ingratitude.
“Why should I listen to you? Let’s see if you could stop me.”
Jiang Chen said with a gloomy face.
“Hahaha. I think you should stop kidding yourself. Do you really think that you are capable of fighting all of us? It is a piece of cake if Third Elder wants to take your life and I can kill you easily. Third Elder doesn’t want to kill you because you’re still considered as a disciple of the Profound Connection Divine Palace. I think you should just repent of your wrongdoings now, otherwise, the entire Profound Connection Divine Palace will come after you later.”
Yue Changzhi fixed his eyes upon Jiang Chen with evil eyes.
“Brother Jiang, it is definitely not a good thing to rise against the Profound Connection Divine Palace. I think you should just follow Third Elder’s order and take this as an opportunity to just show your best skills. Perhaps you could make amends for what you did before.”
Huang Bo said with a faint smile.
“Wow. It seems like the Profound Connection Divine Palace is kind enough and you guys have done all you can. But what if I refuse to do that?”
Jiang Chen said arrogantly. None of them expected Jiang Chen to go against the Profound Connection Divine Palace. They thought he would submit to the Third Elder’s intimidation and then beg for forgiveness when he returned to the Profound Connection Divine Palace. However, what he did instead was beyond their expectation. How dare a Divine King expert challenge the Third Elder? A terrible breach between Jiang Chen and Profound Connection Divine Palace had taken place. Since Jiang Chen resisted, he had now broken with Profound Connection Divine Palace. Undoubtedly, the Third Elder would gain the upper hand in a confrontation.
“Jiang Chen, I think you should just listen to Third Elder. You’re a talented and extraordinarily strong expert, I am sure that you’re going to have a bright future. However, if you choose to go against the Third Elder, I don’t think someone will be able to save you.”
Sheng Kun said to Jiang Chen telepathically. Jiang Chen knew that he meant well but the Third Elder just tried his patience to its limits by trying to drive him away after he broke the formation. He was towering with rage at the moment but he did not show it. Winning or losing was not defined yet, he might have the last laugh. The Great Emperor’s Tomb was full of unexpected dangers and threats, the Nine Dragons Exorcism Formation was just the beginning.
“If you refuse to do so, you will be punished then!”
The Third Elder snorted, his face changed instantly. Qian Renji and Yang Xikuan did not expect the Third Elder, a Late Hierarch expert, to accept Jiang Chen’s challenge. Most of them were completely dumbfounded, except for Dou Tianhuang and Bing Yun.
“Jiang Chen!”
Qian Renji and Yang Xikuan could not bear to see Jiang Chen get killed by the Third Elder. However, they could only remain silent when confronted with the Third Elder’s aggressive attacks.
“Clear off!”
Bing Yun roared in a low voice. There was a series of terrible rain of swords striking out from both of his hands, dealing with the Third Elder’s palm directly. Bing Yun was forced to step backward, he managed to make a narrow escape from the horrible attack.
“I guess it is hard for a Middle Hierarch Realm strong expert to resist my attack.”
The Third Elder said with disdain. At the moment, there was strong killing intent in Jiang Chen’s eyes. Since the Third Elder was going to kill him, it was not necessary for him to pull his punches. He swore to kill him when he found a chance.
“Three arrogant guys, I will give you a quick ride to hell.”
The Third Elder howled ferociously like a loud crash of thunder. At the moment, the Great Emperor’s Tomb was undergoing great changes. There were seven azure dragons breathing from a distance. The entire tomb was blanketed by the azure dragon’s aura, and they could see nothing in the darkness.
“That is the Green Cloud Barrier! Be careful, the Green Cloud Barrier is a hallucinatory formation.”
Bing Yun exclaimed, three of them stepped back swiftly. While the Third Elder and the others were stunned and enveloped in a dense fog. The emergence of the Green Cloud Barrier had made them lose their target and forced them to stop the attack on Jiang Chen.
“This is a hallucinatory formation. Back off and stay calm. Or else, you will be bewitched by the hallucination.”
The Third Elder shouted in a deep voice. Everyone was astonished, retreated immediately and tried to stay away from the Green Cloud Barrier.
“The Greed Cloud Barrier is very terrifying. It will distract the mind and invade the soul.”
Jiang Chen was slightly startled with the formation. At the moment, he felt that the Greed Cloud Barrier was trying to wrap him completely. Jiang Chen was shocked by the rapid growth of the corrosion.
Fortunately, Jiang Chen’s state of mind had reached the Hierarch Realm so the hallucinations and distraction of the Green Cloud Barrier did not apply to him. Even though Jiang Chen could not see with his own eyes, his soul swept through the place instantly and managed to take a clear panoramic view of the Great Emperor’s tomb.
“My sword, that is my sword! No one can take it!”
Xue Liang roared furiously, trying to get rid of Jiang Chen and surging forward at full blast. He was acting like an insane beast, running forward wildly.
“He is totally controlled by the hallucination of the Green Cloud Barrier.”
Jiang Chen thought. He was determined to save Xue Liang from the dark.
