Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1082: Chapter 1082: Jian Family

With doubts in his mind, he prepared to find a suitable place to diligently practice this technique.

After all, it concerned his very life.

Besides, he needed to visit the Jian Family to learn their Concealing Skill.

He calculated the time.

There were only six days left before the meeting at the Connecting Sky Black Pillar.

Excluding travel time, he wouldn’t have many days to stay with the Jian Family.

Thus, as he hurried toward the Jian Family, he also paid attention to places along the way suitable for cultivation.

One day later.

In the sky above a canyon, hours away from the Jian Family.

Jiang Fan stopped.

The canyon was filled with mists of Yin Qi, making it an excellent place to practice "Star Shifting".

Without hesitation, he plunged in.

Unknown how much time passed.

As Jiang Fan approached the end of his cultivation, several figures raced over from afar.

Exploding with astonishing battle aftershocks.

Upon closer look, it was a dozen people besieging one person!

The one being besieged had blood-red eyes, surrounded by boundless murderous aura, having already lost his mind.

Emitting the aura of a Nascent Soul Realm pinnacle!

Indeed.

This was a completely mad supreme expert!

Nine Aperture Nascent Soul!

All the besiegers bore shackles, clearly a group of Eight-Orifice Nascent Souls!

Despite having an overwhelming numerical advantage.

Their combat strength was entirely on a different level.

Each strike from the Nine Aperture Nascent Soul was like mountains crumbling and seas raging.

Besieging Eight-Orifice Nascent Souls were effortlessly swept away.

Various divine lights intertwined, Qi Force crisscrossed, accompanied by splashing blood, causing a rain of blood in the sky along the way.

Occasionally, an Eight-Orifice Nascent Soul would fall as their body shattered and perished.

One elder, with a beard dyed red by blood, shouted with bloodshot eyes:

"We cannot let him escape!"

"Our Jian Family cannot produce another demon!"

He took the lead, wielding a battle spear and charging forward.

The thirteen around him included all of Jian Family’s clear-headed Eight-Orifice Nascent Souls.

Their faces were filled with determination.

One of the family’s three major Nine Aperture Nascent Souls, for some unknown reason, broke through restraints, killed many from the Jian Family, and escaped.

Wherever he went, rivers of blood were left behind.

To stop him, all capable Eight-Orifice Nascent Souls of the Jian Family teamed up for the chase.

However, this Nine Aperture Nascent Soul, aside from being affected by the Nascent Soul realm’s madness, had already lost his mind due to practicing the Jian Family’s Slaughter Skill.

Under double influence, he was utterly insane.

Even combined, they were not a match.

Seeing more people perish, they shouted in grief and indignation.

Today, odds were high they wouldn’t make it back.

But even with heavily injured bodies, they were determined to slay him.

They must not let him bring calamity to the outside world!

Soon, they resumed the fierce battle.

The situation did not improve despite their resolve to die, remaining intensely grim.

In the blink of an eye, two more Eight-Orifice Nascent Souls perished.

The elder of the Jian Family showed a mournful expression:

"Heaven forsakes our Jian Family!"

In today’s battle, Jian Family’s Eight-Orifice Nascent Souls nearly perished, causing a gap in the family’s top strength!

It would be difficult to rival the Three Divine Sects and Seven Great Sects.

Plus, with the arrival of the Ancient Giant.

This time, the Jian Family was truly about to disappear from the river of history.

Boom!

At this moment.

From within the canyon ahead, a surge of Yin Qi shot straight into the heavens.

The grandeur of the Yin Qi stunned everyone.

Subconsciously thinking it was some powerful evil entity being born.

But when a displeased voice rang out, they realized it was someone cultivating there.

"Can you not fight somewhere else?"

The elder of the Jian Family felt a subtle dread.

In Taicang State, only the Great Yin Sect practiced Yin Qi, right?

The intensity of the Yin Qi earlier was not typical of a Great Yin Sect elder.

His eyes flashed sharply, he said: "My friend, I apologize for disturbing your cultivation."

"Could you lend a hand to help us slay this fiend?"

"I assure you of a generous reward."

Jiang Fan had just succeeded in practicing "Star Shifting" and was about to refine that six-zhang Ancient Giant into a Yin Corpse.

Suddenly, a group of people appeared, how could he refine it?

Frowning, he looked at the intense battle above.

It wouldn’t end anytime soon.

After pondering for a moment, he took out the beast horn and said:

"I’ll only strike once, make the most of it!"

With that, he activated the Soul Capturing Lock!

The power of the Five Apertures Nascent Soul, combined with the beast horn, reached the Nine Orifice Nascent Soul level.

The madly slaughtering Nine Aperture Nascent Soul expert suddenly froze in place, unable to move.

Everyone was stunned.

What was this?

It could immobilize the clan’s mad Nine Aperture Nascent Soul without movement?

The elder of the Jian Family quickly reacted, exclaiming joyfully:

"Quick! Seal his Nascent Soul Power, capture him alive!"

This was one of the Jian Family’s Nine Aperture Nascent Souls!

Hope to produce a Venerate.

Moments ago, killing was the only option from necessity.

Now, they could capture alive!

The crowd snapped back to reality, immediately taking out numerous tools, seizing the opportunity to act!

Shortly after.

This Nine Aperture Nascent Soul was pinned at the major meridians by nine large nails.

Even wrapped with several specially-made shackles.

When the Soul Capturing Lock lost effect.

This person could no longer move an inch.

The elder of the Jian Family wiped the blood off his face, showing a smile.

He had prepared to pay the price of everyone’s doom, but in the end, only three died, successfully capturing the clan’s Nine Aperture Nascent Soul.

And it was all thanks to the expert in the canyon.

Thinking of this, he felt both awe and gratitude.

Awe for the person’s fearsome means.

The Nine Aperture Nascent Soul was immobilized from a distance!

He waved to the clan members behind, signaling them to retreat, then leaped down to where Jiang Fan was.

At this moment.

Jiang Fan was frowning at the beast horn.

Unsure when a crack had appeared on it.

He was sure it was flawless when obtained.

"Looks like this item is similar to a talisman, can’t withstand endless use."

"Probably, it will shatter after seven or eight more uses."

Noticing someone approaching, he quickly put away the beast horn, looking at the newcomer.

Finding it was an old man covered in blood, he frowned and said: "There’s no need for thanks."

"Just take care of your Nine Aperture Nascent Soul, don’t let him cause harm again."

The elder of the Jian Family was surprised internally.

He thought it was a senior from the Great Yin Sect, who knew it was actually a young Nascent Soul youth!

However, he seemed to not want to be disturbed.

The elder of the Jian Family could only clasp his hands and say: "Many thanks, young hero, for your help."

"This favor is as great as a mountain."

"When your cultivation is finished, please do visit our Jian Family. I’ll offer a grand reward."

With that, he ascended into the sky and left.

Hearing this, Jiang Fan eagerly resumed refining the Yin Corpse.

Meanwhile.

In the Jian Family.

Jian Linyuan carried a body into the plaza.

In the square below were several corpses.

They were people killed by that escaped Nine Aperture Nascent Soul clan member.

In the square stood a few corpses.

There was Jian Linyuan’s sister.

She had been in Invisibility State, guarding all along.

Now she finally revealed her true form.

Looking at the bodies on the ground, she gave a light snort:

"Our Jiang Family, can’t let a new human demon emerge!"

"What a pity."

"I wanted to hang him up and kick his ass a hundred times!"
