Chapter 2421 - Killing a Grand Prime
Chapter 2421: Killing a Grand Prime
“W- what kind of gaze was that? W- w- why was it so terrifying…” The Elder of Mountains and Seas gradually recovered as he stood where Kai Ya died. Still shaken, he remained in a daze. He had already become soaked in cold sweat.
He had completely forgotten about chasing down Jian Chen. The gaze had struck fear into his heart. He struggled to remain at ease from the dread he had just experienced.
He was a Grand Prime, an existence that stood at the apex. He struggled to imagine just how powerful and terrifying an existence had to be to influence him so much with a single gaze.
“Probably even someone second to Grand Exalts, such as the Nine Brilliance Star Lord, can’t strike fear into my heart with a single gaze. Since it’s not someone second to Grand Exalts, t- t- then…” The Elder of Mountains and Seas’ eyes narrowed. As soon as he considered that possibility, he felt his entire body turned cold.
It was also at this moment that many powerful senses of the soul emanated over from various places on the Star Brilliance Plane, circling around the Elder of Mountains and Seas.
The disturbance from a Grand Prime’s attack was just too great. The Point Cloud Venerable had destroyed the Elder of Mountains and Seas’ Heaven-obscuring Barrier of Flowing Water, so he had already raised the attention of all the peak experts on the Star Brilliance Plane. They all sent over the senses of their souls to check on the situation.
One of the senses was filled with intense anger. A furious message rang out, “Elder of Mountains and Seas, you’ve destroyed the teleportation formation of my Rakshasa sect. If you don’t give me an explanation, I can only pay a visit to your territory.”
The owner of the senses of the soul was clearly the ancestor of the Rakshasa sect. He was also a Grand Prime, no weaker than the Elder of Mountains and Seas.
However, at this moment, a great, mysterious power suddenly descended. With the arrival of the power, the nearby senses of the souls were like a mist before the scorching sun. They all dispersed.
In an instant, all the powerful senses of the souls in the surroundings vanished completely. A range of a hundred million kilometres around the Elder of Mountains and Seas became a region that senses of the souls could not enter.
The supreme power suppressed all the senses of the Grand Primes, whether it was their physical senses or the one from their souls. It isolated the entire region.
“Hmm? What’s happening?”
All the peak experts on the Star Brilliance Plane were startled by this. At that moment, everyone could not help but look towards the Elder of Mountains and Seas. Their gazes were extremely deep and seemed to hide a whole universe within them. They peered through space, gazing to billions of kilometres away.
However, all they saw was chaos. Not only did they fail to see anything, but they could not even peer into the heavenly secrets.
The Point Cloud Venerable who sat within the forbidden grounds of the Five Point sect suddenly stood up. He stared in the Elder of Mountains and Seas’ direction sternly as the light in his eyes flickered with uncertainty.
“I knew something would happen, but I never thought it would happen so quickly. The Elder of Mountains and Seas is probably…”
…
The Elder of Mountains and Seas obviously sensed what had happened in the surroundings. He showed some unease and was just about to leave.
However, at this moment, a hand, blurred from the power of ways, silently extended out from the space there.
It did not give off any energy ripples, nor did it have any astonishing might. The hand was like a ghost, emerging out of nowhere. It pressed towards the Elder of Mountains and Seas silently.
However, when the hand appeared, the laws on the entire Star Brilliance Plane seemed to be heavily inferred with. They became messy.
However, this mess seemed to possess a certain pattern at the same time. It was not complete chaos. It seemed like they were receding, giving way and yielding to the hand.
The hand that had appeared out of nowhere seemed to replace the heavens of the Star Brilliance Plane, becoming the supreme ruler of the plane. It was the unshakable king, where the three thousand ways revolved around it and transformed with it.
“No… no… Spare me, Grand Exalt… Spare me, Grand Exalt…” The Elder of Mountains and Seas became extremely frightened. He had taken part in the war over three million years ago, and he had personally witnessed the battle between Grand Exalts from extremely far away. The hand that possessed a completely pure bearing of ways was basically a Grand Exalt who had comprehended the laws to the limits.
The Elder of Mountains and Seas used everything he had. He used various secret techniques, doing all that he could to escape from here. However, the arrival of the hand had severed the laws of the world and threw the space there into disorder, rendering all of the Elder of Mountains and Seas’ comprehension useless. Moreover, with the suppression from the bearing of ways, the Elder of Mountains and Seas had been immobilised.
In the previous moment, he was a glorious Grand Prime, an existence that stood at the apex, but now, he had become as puny as an ant.
Bang!
The hazy hand gently pressed against the Elder of Mountains and Seas’ head with the power of ways.
Immediately, the Elder of Mountains and Seas disintegrated.
This was true disintegration. As if he had been vaporised, not even a speck of dust remained behind. Everything on him truly vanished from the world.
In a single moment, the Elder of Mountains and Seas had died. He did not even have the time to cry out.
Now that the Elder of Mountains and Seas was dead, the hand vanished as well. It was like it had never appeared. It did not leave behind any traces either. The affected laws of the world on the Star Brilliance Plane regained their order.
The mysterious power that suppressed the senses of the soul vanished. Immediately, powerful senses of the souls swept over again, circling the region there. Afterwards, there were a few flickers, and many of the Grand Primes who sensed the abnormality hurried over.
They hovered high in the air and looked down. The light in their eyes flickered as they felt both surprise and doubt.
“Where’s the Elder of Mountains and Seas? Why has he suddenly vanished?”
“If the Elder of Mountains and Seas had left, all of us would be able to sense him right now. But we’ve found nothing at all…”
“What happened here just now? Why were the senses of our souls blocked? Even the heavenly secrets had been obscured…”
…
The Point Cloud Venerable of the Five Point sect had also arrived. He looked at the ground below silently.
“Point Cloud Venerable, you’ve grasped both the Laws of Space and Time. In terms of understanding towards time-space, you surpass us all. Please turn back time so that we can find out what happened here,” said some of the experts with ties with the Point Cloud Venerable.
The Point Cloud Venerable shook his head, “All of the order in this region of space has been thrown into chaos. The power is too strong, so I can’t see anything, let alone turn back time. There is nothing that I can do.”
Suddenly, a powerful pressure appeared, and a man in azure robes silently appeared at an altitude of ten thousand metres.
His arrival made all the stars in the sky shine with great brilliance. All starlight seemed to fall on him.
The man who stood within the light from all the stars was the supreme expert that everyone knew on the Star Brilliance Plane, the Nine Brilliance Star Lord!
