Chapter 572 - 570: Youu, Breaking 1 Shackle

Chapter 572: Chapter 570: Youu, Breaking 1 Shackle

The top five Holy Envoys had already discovered Little Gray’s appearance.

They had wanted to act sooner, but they were constantly locked down by an ethereal and unfixed Divine Thought.

That was why they hadn’t made a move since they first appeared.

It was because of Youu. Although he hadn’t truly attacked, he stood atop the peak, his Divine Thought locking down the top five Holy Envoys.

The top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys wore ugly expressions, a storm of shock raging in their hearts.

They never imagined that someone by Jiang Jichen’s side could be so powerful.

’He has probably already stepped into the Nascent Soul Ancestor Realm.’

At the very least, the Divine Thought pinning them down gave them the feeling that he was invincibly powerful.

However, Youu only seemed to be locking them down with his Divine Thought and didn’t actually attack.

Even when Jiang Jichen was in grave danger, he just stood there, his gaze fixed dispassionately on the top five Holy Mountain Envoys.

This was also why the top five Holy Mountain Envoys had been so wary and hadn’t dared to make a move.

But now, the moment of life and death, of victory and defeat, had arrived. They could no longer hold back and finally charged forward with reckless abandon.

And Youu, just as silently, appeared to block the path of the top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys.

"Dammit! Only his Divine Thought is strong, his true Cultivation is suppressed! Let’s join forces and kill him!"

Which of the top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys hadn’t cultivated for ages?

So, the moment Youu moved, they saw through his bluff.

They realized they had just been bluffed from the very beginning.

’No wonder he only locked us down with his Divine Thought and never attacked.’

’It was all just an elaborate bluff.’

And yet, every single one of them had fallen for it.

In fact, Youu’s situation was exactly as they had guessed.

His Divine Thought was as strong as a Nascent Soul Ancestor’s, but because of the countless invisible shackles within his body, the power he could exert was limited. He had not yet reached the Nascent Soul Ancestor Realm.

The top five Holy Mountain Envoys attacked in unison, their combined might monstrous and terrifying.

Youu was instantly submerged!

But no matter what, Youu did not retreat a single step.

He blocked all of the attacks.

And not a single one of the top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys could get past him.

"This... his Body Technique, his application of power... they actually carry a sense of transcending the Celestial Dao."

"However, at his Realm, the power consumption must be immense. He definitely can’t hold on for much longer."

The top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys were extremely embarrassed to be held back by Youu.

And they could only watch helplessly as Jiang Jichen and Little Gray slaughtered three of the other four Holy Mountain Saint Envoys.

Of course, Little Gray’s skeleton was nearly shattered, and Jiang Jichen’s physical body was also battered and broken.

Both had paid an unimaginable price.

Doroh was also nearly beaten to scrap.

In the end, Doroh returned to the Mysterious Bone Staff, while Little Gray was taken into the Magical Artifact Space by Jiang Jichen.

"Youu, let’s go!"

At this point, Jiang Jichen knew that if they didn’t leave now, they would lose their chance.

He could see that Youu couldn’t hold on for much longer.

But just then, a Secret Light suddenly flared in Youu’s eyes, and a crack appeared on one of the invisible shackles inside his body.

Then, a powerful and terrifying force spread throughout his entire body.

Youu casually threw a palm strike toward the top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys.

BOOM!

An invisible Palm Power pushed forward.

This power was several times stronger than before.

The top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys didn’t even have time to react before they were all sent flying.

Their bodies felt as if they were about to shatter. It took all their effort to wear down the terrifying Power of Destruction that had invaded them.

PUFF!

The top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys all spat blood simultaneously. They were instantly and severely wounded, their combat strength dropping by more than half.

Youu’s body was now ramrod straight, on the verge of collapsing.

With a sweep of the Poison-Devouring Pearl Fragment in his hand, Jiang Jichen pulled him into the Magical Artifact Space.

Then, without a backward glance, Jiang Jichen charged down Six Paths Peak and fled.

Of course, his current condition was also terrible. He was a mangled wreck, with less than a tenth of his combat power remaining, and in an extremely perilous situation.

"After him! Jiang Jichen is severely injured and has no strength left to fight! If we can catch him, the Purple Jade Map is ours!"

Someone shouted.

Moreover, the remaining six Holy Mountain Envoys had already given chase.

They would never let Jiang Jichen go.

It was just that they had been severely wounded by Youu, so their combat strength was also limited.

Otherwise, Jiang Jichen likely wouldn’t have even had a chance to escape with his life.

Jiang Jichen naturally knew that Youu had shattered one of the invisible shackles in his body, disregarding all consequences, just to help him. He had unleashed world-shaking power, grievously injuring the top five Holy Mountain Saint Envoys to create an escape opportunity for him.

But because of this, Youu had now fallen into a temporary slumber.

Under the gaze of the Void projections, everyone could see Jiang Jichen fleeing for his life, carrying the Purple Jade Map while dragging his mangled body.

Their hearts were stirred by greed, and one after another, they set out to join the hunt for Jiang Jichen.

Atop the peak, two groups remained.

The mysterious masked woman’s four attendants and her handmaiden flickered and took off in the direction of Jiang Jichen’s escape.

Xuanyuan Qingyi and Ye Rou also sprang into motion, chasing after him.

"Little Ye Rou, once I snatch the Purple Jade Map back from Jiang Jichen, you’ll have lost our bet. When that happens, you’ll have to listen to everything I say and be a good little girl, okay?"

Xuanyuan Qingyi’s mood had inexplicably improved as she teased Ye Rou.

Ye Rou said anxiously, "Just save him first! As long as you save him, I’ll count it as your win."

She was incredibly worried about Jiang Jichen right now.

However, Xuanyuan Qingyi was very calm. She said charmingly, "Don’t worry. Jiang Jichen won’t die that easily. I’d say those people are the ones who don’t know what’s good for them, daring to hunt him down. Don’t they know that a dying tiger is the most terrifying?"

But Ye Rou urged her, "We still need to hurry! I won’t be at ease until I see him safe!"

Xuanyuan Qingyi sighed. "Little Ye Rou, it seems you’ve really fallen for him completely. You’re destined to be taken by Jiang Jichen. After all, you’re practically throwing yourself at him right now."

...

At this moment, all the Cultivators in the entire New Domain had sprung into action, hunting down Jiang Jichen.

The temptation of the Purple Jade Map was too great, and with Jiang Jichen being so grievously wounded, no one was willing to miss such an opportunity.

Now, wherever Jiang Jichen appeared, he would become the enemy of all.

Ahead of him, only enemies;

Behind him, countless pursuers.

Jiang Jichen had already pushed his Mountain River Shadow technique to its absolute limit. His figure flickered as he weaved through the mountain forests of the New Domain.

He continued to press deeper.

Suddenly, a profound sense of crisis welled up in Jiang Jichen’s heart, and he dodged sideways without hesitation.

BOOM!

A bottomless, massive hole appeared where he had just been standing, and everything within a radius of dozens of meters was turned to nothingness.

At the same time, a dozen or so Cultivators emerged from the Ancient Forest, surrounding him to kill him.

With pursuers not far behind and his path forward blocked, Jiang Jichen’s situation had become extremely perilous.

It was then that Jiang Jichen went all out, using a Secret Skill to unleash his latent potential.

The originally dim Seven-Colored Spiritual Light around his body instantly brightened a little.

He charged straight ahead without the slightest pause.

PFFT!

The person blocking his way was cleaved in two by his Holy Sword.

Then he slipped past and continued on his way.
