Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“As long as I can absorb a divine body’s blood, it will be impossible for even a Sacred Spirit to kill me. At that time, I will be able to start a massacre here.” The Blood Emperor didn’t dream about leaving the Blood Sea Realm. All he wanted was to start a massacre and kill all the Sacred Lords. He would then manage to inflict grave damage upon the whole world, so that when the Blood Clans invaded them, they wouldn’t have enough power to ward them off.
All of a sudden, Shui Zhener stood in front of Jiang Chen. She extended her hands and obstructed the Blood Emperor from walking forward.
“Well?” The Blood Emperor was confused by this. “Do you want to protect this guy? Don’t you know what you amount to?”
Shui Zhener didn’t speak, but her gaze became resolute.
“Foolish!” The Blood Emperor scurried forward, reaching Shui Zhener in the twinkling of an eye. His big hands were about to tear her apart.
It was at this moment that the Wind and Lightning Sword and the Wind and Fire Sword attacked the Blood Emperor’s left and right sides. The swords’ target was the Blood Emperor’s tongue, which was one of the weaknesses of Blood Clan members. If it were possible to cut off his tongue, he would feel intense pain.
It was a pity that the attacks failed. The Blood Emperor quickly pulled his tongue back into his mouth, while black smoke emanated from it.
The two magical clones had arrived, one on the Blood Emperor’s left side and the other on his right side. They were holding the Red Cloud Sword and the Heavenly Fault Sword. Jiang Chen’s main body had fallen into an empty state, where he had forgotten about himself. At the same time, his Buddhist Light engulfed the whole region. Jiang Chen was their sole hope, and once the Buddhist Light disappeared, the power displayed by the Blood Emperor would be magnified beyond belief.
“Lightning Disaster of Myriad Swords!”
“Sky Burning Might!”
The magical clones started attacking crazily.
At first, the Blood Emperor was flustered, and he quickly ended up sustaining injuries. However, he couldn’t be subdued so easily. He waved his hand in the air and held up Prince Ping Tian’s weapon in his hand. Just after this, the Blood Emperor started using the Water Spirit Clan’s spiritual techniques, and their level and might were vastly superior to the one used by the true Water Spirits present here.
“What a terrifying Blood Clan member!” Upon witnessing such a sight, despair welled up in the heart of the third princess.
The Blood Clan members could easily learn offensive techniques. If the Blood Clan army arrived, what could they use to resist them? They had all enjoyed killing the Blood Clan members in the Blood Sea Realm and assumed that they didn’t amount to much. They had ended up forgetting that the Blood Clan members in this realm were only captives provided for their practice.
As for the Blood Emperor in front of them, he only showed one aspect of the Blood Clan’s great power. And yet it was still enough to make them descend into despair. They had lost any ideas of hope for the future. It seemed as if the Sacred Spirit, who had awakened the Blood Emperor to carry out a Sacred Lord Recognition trial, had justifiable reasons behind such a decision.
Bang!
One of the magical clones was sent flying away because the Blood Emperor was too strong. It had made just a single mistake, yet it ended up sustaining heavy injuries and spouted a mouthful of blood. As for the previous attacks of the magical clones, they had only inflicted superficial wounds upon the Blood Emperor.
Foolish Water Spirits! Jiang Chen couldn’t help but curse them inwardly. If the Blood Emperor hadn’t been able to absorb Prince Ping Tian’s blood, his fighting prowess would have been much lower than this.
“If I end up being killed by trash like you, won’t I become just a joke?” The Blood Emperor sneered with his mouth and charged forward. A whistling sound echoed as the Blood Emperor flew through the air, and he instantly appeared in front of the magical clone, who fell on the ground.
“Awful!”
The Blood Emperor stamped the magical clone before it even started struggling, and his tongue twined around the clone’s neck. It was at this moment that the magical clone extinguished itself. However, the Blood Emperor’s movement was slightly quicker than the clone’s, and he managed to absorb a drop of blood. It was just a single drop and didn’t bring any great change to him. But he still wore an intoxicated expression and picked up the Red Cloud Sword from the ground.
“You have learned many peerless techniques. Yet, you still didn’t practice them to their peak and try to master them. Instead, you run here to risk your life. It’s really laughable!”
Raging flames appeared in the Red Cloud Sword in the hands of the Blood Emperor. Even though they weren’t the Sky-burning Evil Flames, they still contained the power of the Fire Rule possessed by Jiang Chen. The Blood Emperor had managed to learn all of Jiang Chen’s skills through a mere drop of blood.
“Oh, by the way, I have almost forgotten that your world doesn’t have any more time. Ha, ha, ha!” The Blood Emperor looked mighty and let out a peal of exaggerated laughter.
If a Blood Clan disaster wasn’t near at hand, a divine body possessor like Jiang Chen could just cultivate calmly until the Martial Saints Realm, and he could then run amok in the Nine Realms as he wanted.
“You have knowledge of many interesting matters. Well? You got reincarnated and reborn? Interesting, it’s really interesting.” The Blood Emperor was confident in himself, and he believed that everything was under his control. That was why he started reading Jiang Chen’s memory.
“Hateful! Hateful!” All of a sudden, the Blood Emperor’s expression changed drastically, and anger appeared on his face. “It turned out that it was, it was you!” The Blood Emperor glared at Jiang Chen as if he was looking at his father’s murderer. “It was only due to you that I was imprisoned and couldn’t get to even see daylight! I won’t let you have an easy death even if you ask for it.” The Blood Emperor’s anger was true and genuine, and the wave of pressure emanating from him made the Water Spirits shiver with fear.
“What are you talking about?” Upon witnessing the Blood Emperor’s reaction, the other magical clone was confused, and he couldn’t understand the reason behind this.
“Stop playing dumb! Worldly Four Swords: Wind and Lightning Sword!”
The Blood Emperor started using Jiang Chen’s martial techniques instead of spiritual techniques, and he even used one of Jiang Chen’s four sword moves. Even though he had a giant’s stature, when he used such a swift sword move, he had done it exactly the same as Jiang Chen did. However, when the sword aura had just started rising, the Blood Emperor was sent flying as if he had suffered a formless attack.
The crowd looked at each other in dismay because they didn’t know where such an attack came from.
“Ha, ha, ha, you don’t have divine lightning. So, how can you use the Wind and Lightning Sword Move?” Jiang Chen mocked him loudly.
The Blood Emperor had gotten Jiang Chen’s martial techniques and reached the highest level of mastery over the Worldly Wind and Lightning Four Sword Moves. However, the current issue was that he didn’t have the Heavenly God Lightning, and he didn’t have enough energy to use such a Great Lore Realm’s power. Which was why he ended up in such a state! The Heavenly God Lightning could only be possessed by someone with Holy Pulses, while divine lightning was energy, which could only be accumulated slowly.
The Blood Emperor crawled up from the ground. He had learned a lesson from this and didn’t say anything else. He just used a sword move once again. “Wind Power Sword!”
The magical clone’s chest was immediately penetrated. Such an attack occurred suddenly without any prior sign, but Jiang Chen’s magical clone’s body still managed to extinguish itself in time and didn’t allow the Blood Emperor to absorb even a single drop of blood.
“There isn’t any way to fight him.”
It was only Jiang Chen’s main body that was left now, and since the main body’s power was on the same level as the magical clones, the outcome seemed to be obvious.
“Become my Blood Servant,” the Blood Emperor walked swaggeringly toward the main body and gave him an order.
However, the main body was still unmoved and didn’t give any response. He was still reading the scripture!
“Fine, I will just have to suck you dry!” The Blood Emperor had limited patience, and he wanted to enjoy a scrumptious meal. The Blood Emperor extended his big hand toward Jiang Chen’s head. He wanted to hold Jiang Chen’s head and raise his body
Shui Zhener couldn’t bear to watch such a sight, and she turned her head around.
Ahhh! However, what no one had expected was that it was the Blood Emperor who screamed miserably. He seemed like a mortal who had been scalded by flames, and his whole arm started burning.
“What is going on?”
The Water Spirit Clan’s members looked over, and they witnessed that Jiang Chen, who had been sitting there motionless, had already stood up and wasn’t reading the scripture any longer. However, the Buddhist Light still existed, and it was more intense than before, while there was still another external power over his body’s surface.
“Tathagata Buddhist Robe! It’s Tathagata Buddhist Robe!”
The Blood Emperor moved back several times as if he had just witnessed a frightening sight.
Jiang Chen seemed like a Great Buddha, and the people got the impulse to kneel down and worship him.
