Invincible Starting from Max Level Attributes

Chapter 1299: Chapter 1324: This feeling is really exhilarating! Chapter 1299: Chapter 1324: This feeling is really exhilarating! “Grand… Grandmother?”

The middle-aged man tentatively called out, his face filled with a worried look, ready to flee at any moment, not daring to raise his face.

Sure enough, upon hearing the middle-aged man’s voice, the grandmother frowned and revealed a hint of displeasure on her face.

Anyone could feel it; the grandmother was already angry.

She had made it clear she didn’t want to be disturbed by anyone. Now that she had only just sat down and hadn’t even settled in, someone was calling out to her–it would be strange if she weren’t mad.

Seeing the worried expression on the middle-aged man’s face and the grandmother’s frowning action, the empress waved her hand, signaling the middle-aged man to back away.

The middle-aged man immediately breathed a sigh of relief, looking much more relaxed.

“Grandmother!”

The empress called out softly, her face full of a curious expression.

The grandmother opened her eyes, looked up at the empress and said, “Haven’t I already said, unless it’s something special, do not disturb me. What would the empress have me do?”

Though still somewhat impatient, facing the empress, the grandmother hardly dared to get angry, but everyone could see that even though she had stopped meditating, she was not prepared to give up on breaking the seal.

The empress looked at the place where the barrier had been broken and said slowly, “The barrier has been broken.”

“What?”

The grandmother’s eyes suddenly widened to their limits, and she sprung up from the Sky-splitting Bull, staring in disbelief at the clear expanse of mountains and rivers before her, saying in a deep voice, “What happened?”

She had just closed her eyes and hadn’t prepared herself when the barrier was broken by someone?

Thinking of this, the grandmother’s face showed a serious look, staring at the sky and saying, “Chen Xiaotian, since you have come, why hide in secrecy? Won’t you come out and meet this old woman?”

Hearing the grandmother’s words, everyone on the Sky-splitting Bull nearly jumped in fright, looking around nervously, but where could they see any trace of a person?

Not even a whisper of breath.

After a moment, the grandmother apparently also didn’t feel anything, and with a frown, she asked, “The barrier wasn’t removed by Chen Xiaotian?”

The middle-aged man smiled wryly and said to the grandmother, “It doesn’t seem so.”

“What do you mean ‘it doesn’t seem so’?” The grandmother glared and demanded, “Tell me exactly what happened?”

Taking a deep breath, the middle-aged man with a strange look on his face said, “Grandmother, as soon as you closed your eyes…”

“Rubbish, this old woman isn’t going to die that easily!” The grandmother’s face almost turned iron blue.

The middle-aged man hurriedly stepped back, saying, “As soon as Grandmother settled down, the broken mountains and rivers disappeared, the Heaven Devouring Beast… the Heaven Devouring Beast is gone.”

“Do you mean that youngster broke the Mountain and River Seal?” The grandmother snorted with laughter and said, “Ridiculous, the Ksitigarbha Mountain and River Forbidden Skill would take countless efforts for even me to decipher, and in such a short period, that youngster could break it? Do you take me for a three-year-old child?”

At that moment, the empress suddenly spoke up, “Whether it was that youth who broke the seal or not, the Ksitigarbha Mountain and River Forbidden Skill has indeed been deciphered. Let’s continue on our way.”

The grandmother paused, narrowed her eyes, and commanded, “Catch up with that kid ahead of us!”

Moo–!

A thunderous roar sounded, and a burst of blue light erupted from the Sky-splitting Bull, chasing in the direction of the Heaven Devouring Beast.

Halfway there, Granny remained silent all the way until she suddenly asked the Empress, “Did the boy… truly break the Ksitigarbha Mountain and River Forbidden Skill?”

Seeing the hesitation on Granny’s face, the Empress shook her head and said, “I cannot be certain whether it was him who broke the seal. When the Ksitigarbha Mountain and River Forbidden Skill vanished without a trace, it wasn’t until the Heaven Devouring Beast revealed its form that we realized the forbiddance had suddenly disappeared.”

A smile flickered across Granny’s face as she nodded and said, “So, the young man was just lucky.”

“What do you mean?” the Empress asked with a hint of curiosity on her face.

Granny chuckled and said, “That Mountain and River Seal laid down by Chen Xiaotian was an effortless creation of his, but even though it was done casually, it’s not something ordinary people can break through, let alone the Heaven Devouring Beast taking the boy and the Nine Dragons directly into it.”

At this point, Granny’s expression turned solemn as she continued, “Once you enter the restriction of the Ksitigarbha Mountain and River Forbidden Skill, it’s not just about strength to come out. Inside there’s a scorpion made of condensed Demon Qi, formed by Chen Xiaotian’s own demon source. Though just a shadow, it could connect heaven and earth with unimaginable power, easily destroying the heavens and the earth, so…”

Granny scoffed and added, “To come out of the restriction, one would have to destroy that scorpion, and how could the scorpion be destroyed without any noise or sign?”

Finally, Granny said with astonishment and doubt, “What could possibly make the Ksitigarbha Mountain and River Forbidden Skill come to an end on its own? Could Chen Xiaotian have run into some troublesome issues?”

Upon hearing this, the Empress frowned slightly and said, “Is Granny suggesting that Chen Xiaotian was too preoccupied to care about this matter, and the Ksitigarbha Mountain and River Forbidden Skill simply unraveled on its own?”

“There’s only that possibility!” Granny exclaimed, “But… there might be another possibility. Never mind, that’s too absurd. Who could sever the Spirit Soul connection between the scorpion and Chen Xiaotian?”

The group fell silent. What a joke, a Spirit Soul link was like a Destined Spiritual Treasure; unless one was dead, how could anyone easily break it?

…

The Nine Dragons Saint looked at Yang Zhen with a dumbfounded face, or rather, at the small black scorpion in Yang Zhen’s hand.

The terrifying scorpion that blotted out the sky and shrank to the size of a palm didn’t strike the Nine Dragons Saint as odd since the scorpion was just a shadow, able to transform and manipulate based on the surrounding Demon Qi.

But right then, that little scorpion was climbing mischievously on Yang Zhen’s palm, displaying an unusual fondness for him, which was a bit too much.

“Did you conjure up this scorpion yourself?” the Nine Dragons Saint couldn’t help but ask.

Yang Zhen shook his head and said, “No.”

“Then… was it that scorpion from before?” the Nine Dragons Saint blurted out, then immediately shook his head and said, “Impossible. The shadow of the respected Chen Xiaotian must have a Spirit Soul chain, how could it be broken just like that?”

Yang Zhen grinned and said, “Who says it can’t be severed just like that.”

The Nine Dragons Saint looked at Yang Zhen with a stunned face, opening his mouth but unable to voice his thoughts.

The cheeky cat looked on in amazement and blurted out, “Kid, did you really sever the Spirit Soul chain?”

Yang Zhen nodded and said, “Leaving it exposed so brazenly, it would have been an excess not to sever it.”

For fuck’s sake, this feeling was like having an enemy you wished dead countless times suddenly cozy up to you with a huge ass in your face, not giving it a good kick would be almost offensive to the order of heaven.

And damn, it felt incredibly satisfying, even more so than putting on airs.

Yang Zhen fiddled with the scorpion in his hand, muttering to himself, “How should one eat a scorpion?”

“Just like eating a prawn, of course!” the shameless cat’s eyes lit up, forgetting everything he’d heard–as if it mattered whether it was Chen Xiaotian or Chen Sun Tian.

Meanwhile, the Nine Dragons Sacred Clan stood there utterly dumbfounded, staring at Yang Zhen in disbelief and muttering to themselves, “What the hell, what is the future of this conniving kid going to be like!”
