“Thank you for the reminder. It sure does seem like I should begin with my preparations too!”
Jiang Chen’s lips curled up slightly, and he revealed a mocking smile.
Boom!
In an instant, the divine soul, which was like a sharp sword, rushed towards Yan Lin!
A golden radiance, along with sword energy, fist intent, sword light, and all sorts of ancient divine patterns, burst out, forcing Yan Lin and the Yan Sect’s people into retreating.
The disciples of the True Martial Sect widened their eyes at this scene. They couldn’t help but exclaim in disbelief.
“What is this? Why does it feel so familiar?”
“Sect Leader, you are too domineering! I thought you would use the power of the sect’s protection array to protect the dao. I didn’t expect you to have other methods!”
…
Outside the training arena, when Yan Lin and the others saw the dazzling golden light, a trace of fear appeared in their eyes. They immediately retreated without any hesitation.
“You want to retreat now?”
“It’s too late!”
Jiang Chen focused his eyes. The True Qi in his body suddenly burst out and surged into the sky.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen’s feet left the ground. He disappeared from where he was just now.
In a flash, Jiang Chen arrived in front of Yan Lin and the others!
“Soul sealing mark!”
With an angry shout, Jiang Chen put his fingers together and launched a punch. His punch landed on Yan Lin’s chest, activating the soul sealing mark.
After the soul sealing mark was activated, Jiang Chen came back to the spot where he initially was.
“My cultivation base… My cultivation base…”
“Damn it! What have you done? Why can’t I feel my cultivation base?”
“Trash! You trash! Why didn’t you stop him when he attacked me?!”
Yan Lin was panicking. He looked at Jiang Chen in fear while cursing the elders beside him!
Jiang Chen had used the divine souls of the eight disciples to suppress the elders beside Yan Lin!
The moment he suppressed them, all Jiang Chen had to do was to put the soul sealing mark within Yan Lin’s body.
After Yan Lin was injected with the soul sealing mark, it was as if his cultivation was crippled.
“You are the young master of the Yan Sect, right? If the Yan Sect dares to show yourselves at our True Martial Sect in the next ten days, then that mark shall remain within you till your last breath!”
“However, since you don’t have any cultivation left now, it would be good for you to become a cripple!” Jiang Chen ridiculed him.
“Soul sealing mark?”
“Despicable b*stard. You’re so shameless!”
“How dare you seal my cultivation?” Yan Lin looked at Jiang Chen with hatred in his eyes, as if he wanted to swallow him whole.
However, after he knew that his cultivation wasn’t really crippled, Yan Lin quickly calmed down, and his arrogant laughter reverberated throughout the True Martial Sect!
In Yan Lin’s eyes, Jiang Chen was just a Spirit Realm cultivator.
Since he was a cultivator at the Spirit Realm, how powerful would the seal he had used be?
It seemed the elders at the Origin Realm around him could undo the seal easily.
“Don’t you think you’re overestimating yourself a little too much? Did you really think your seal would amount to much? What a joke!”
Then, Yan Lin winked at the elders beside him.
The elders went up to him and extended their hands, pressing them on Yan Lin’s chest where the seal was placed.
What the elders of the Yan sect wanted to do was to undo the seal on Yan Lin’s body with their magnificent True Qi of the Origin Realm.
But it was set by Jiang Chen. So how could the soul sealing mark be broken easily?
Jiang Chen must have thought of a way to preserve the seal from being broken by force, right?
In the next instant, when the elders of the Yan Sect injected their True Qi into the seal, Yan Lin’s expression became ghastly. His internal organs felt as though they had been pierced by thousands of arrows!
“Ah!”
Screams kept coming out of Yan Lin’s mouth.
“Stop!”
“I’m going to die if you keep injecting your qi! Stop!”
…
The elders of the Yan Sect were shocked when they heard Yan Lin’s screams. They stopped transmitting their True Qi right away.
“Haha. Didn’t you look down on my seal? Seems like even these Origin Realm elders can’t break it?”
Jiang Chen mocked him. He had expected such an outcome.
“The soul sealing mark. The only way you can undo this seal by yourselves is to find a willing Dao Realm cultivator to sacrifice his own blood essence!”
Jiang Chen focused his gaze. He said seriously, “That seal will only remain within you for ten days. After that, it will disappear on its own.”
“However, should the Yan Sect return here before then, your life will be the price they pay!”
Yan Lin wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and answered, “A ten-day time limit?”
“Huh! That is no threat to our sect. You don’t have the power to resist us after ten days.”
Yan Lin was right. The seal would be broken after ten days.
And in these short ten days, the True Martial Sect would still be the same. There wouldn’t be any major improvements in the sect, and the Yan Sect could easily break through!
What Yan Lin had to do was to wait!
He just had to wait quietly for ten days.
“Is that so? Now that I have injected the soul sealing mark within your body, your life and death will be decided with a single thought of mine!”
As he spoke, Jiang Chen spread out his five fingers. A golden hexagram star diagram appeared around them.
All of a sudden, the hexagram star diagram started revolving, and the Primordial Qi in Yan Lin’s body started to stir uncontrollably.
In a short moment, before Yan Lin could even scream, some of his meridians had already been destroyed.
Even some of his spiritual meridians had been destroyed under Jiang Chen’s control.
“How does it feel?” Jiang Chen asked in a cold voice.
“Ten days is enough. Get lost. Otherwise, you might lose some of your meridians!”
“Get lost!”
Jiang Chen put down his hand slowly. The hexagram star diagram disappeared.
“You… Huh!”
Yan Lin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
At that moment, he was really afraid. If his meridians were damaged, his life would be over. Maybe his father would find someone else for the position of the young master.
After all, it wasn’t impossible for him to find a new young master.
“Humph! The Yan Sect will wait for you for ten days!”
“Your True Martial Sect’s protection array is already broken. I’ll see how you can resist then!”
Yan Lin muttered. He was fuming with anger.
Then, he hurried to leave the territory of the True Martial Sect along with the elders of the Yan Sect.
Ye Qizheng, who was standing not far away, wanted to discuss with Jiang Chen how they would defend the sect after ten days.
However, before he could say anything, Jiang Chen had already left.
After Jiang Chen left the True Martial Sect’s training arena, he went straight to look for Tong Mu and his group of alchemists. He wanted to see how they were doing..
