Jiang Chen entered completely into the Doctrine Heart and Buddhist Bones states by depending upon the progress he had made in the Supreme Enlightenment Buddhist Scripture. However, the main reason he was able to enter these states was because of what the Creation Divine Tree had stated. His boundless potential had been unearthed and his Buddhist Power had grown by leaps and bounds.
The Tathagata Buddhist Robe was vastly stronger than Divine Armor, and it possessed a special power able to restrain Blood Emperors. Moreover, it wasn’t limited to just this alone, since he had a Doctrine Heart and Buddhist Bones. The Du Tian Divine Lightning was grasped by Jiang Chen, and he turned it into a lightning spear. The martial and Buddhist paths dual cultivation was behind Jiang Chen’s current achievements.
Swoosh! Jiang Chen disappeared and the next moment reappeared in front of the Blood Emperor. He sent him flying with a strike from his lightning spear.The arrogant Blood Emperor became weak once again and didn’t seem able to withstand even a single blow. He realized that he was in a terrible situation and his gaze locked onto the Water Spirits.
“Awful! He wants to absorb our blood to recover his power,” the third princess shouted loudly and quickly ran away. However, the Blood Emperor continued to run toward her, depending upon his great speed to quickly overtake her.
“Great Void Hand Seal!” However, Jiang Chen thrust his palm at the Blood Emperor and thwarted his plan, knocking him to the ground. Jiang Chen seemed like a heavenly god, who would shortly take the Blood Emperor’s life.
The Blood Emperor’s desire for survival conquered his fright, and he started attacking crazily. However, whenever he came in contact with the Tathagata Buddhist Robe, his skin started burning. When the Blood Emperor was once again knocked down on the ground by Jiang Chen, he realized that he was surely not a match for him.
“Your memory has been sealed, and you can’t lift the seal by yourself. But I can read it easily. Do you want to know it? I even know the reason why your fiancee stabbed you to death.” The Blood Emperor’s way of seeking survival was quite brilliant, and he managed to poke Jiang Chen’s heart with several words, which caused the Tathagata Buddhist Robe’s flames to start flickering as if they would be shortly extinguished.
The Blood Emperor took advantage of such a chance and attacked with his whole power. He slammed his head against Jiang Chen’s body, and, even though he was still injured by the Tathagata Buddhist Robe, he managed to inflict heavy injuries upon Jiang Chen.
However, Jiang Chen quickly jumped up, stabilized his heart, and trampled the Blood Emperor, who had just crawled over to him. Then he started penetrating his chest with the lightning spear little by little.
“Speak!” Jiang Chen shouted loudly.
At this moment, the Blood Emperor realized that Jiang Chen wouldn’t let him off the hook. So why should he state what Jiang Chen wanted to know?
“Ha, ha, ha, ha!” The Blood Emperor laughed heartily and held the lightning spear with both hands, as intense power surged out of his body.
“He wants to blow himself up!”
Jiang Chen didn’t give him a chance to achieve this. His lightning spear immediately penetrated the Blood Emperor’s body. However, Jiang Chen still ended up shaken and had been sent flying, and he sustained heavy injuries once again. As for the Blood Emperor, he was taking his last gasp.
The Water Spirits didn’t care about their savior, and all strode forward because they hoped to deliver the last blow to the Blood Emperor.
Bang! Suddenly, a dagger was thrust at the Blood Emperor’s head, and it took his life before the Water Spirits could take any action.
“Shui, Shui Zhener?” The third princess looked in disbelief at the person holding the dagger.
After this, many crazy gazes filled with jealousy stared at Shui Zhener.
“You are really daring!”
The third princess was infuriated. Killing intent appeared in her eyes, and she strode forward to kill Shui Zhener.
Just as the Blood Emperor had wanted to kill Jiang Chen to get the Creation Divine Tree, if he died now, the Sacred Spirit would have to choose someone else as its master. At this moment, they still weren’t really sure whether Shui Zhener could become a Sacred Lord, but if they killed her, they could be absolutely sure that she couldn’t become a Sacred Lord. The third princess was confident about achieving it because, in her eyes, Shui Zhener was quite mediocre and ordinary. But, when the third princess had just approached Shui Zhener, her expression stiffened, as a dagger was thrust at her chest and became stained with blood.
“She’s so fast…how could she be so fast?” The third princess couldn’t believe this. She had never imagined that Shui Zhener possessed such power.
“If you weren’t always interrupting people when they speak, I could have probably answered you.” Shui Zhener wore a smile across her face. It was completely different than her previous bashful smile. Instead, it was an evil smile. Shui Zhener pulled the dagger out viciously and looked on as the third princess fell to the ground.
“Spirit, Spirit Emperor? Shui Zhener, you unexpectedly have a Spirit Emperor’s power. You really hid it well!” When the others witnessed this incident, they couldn’t manage to react and respond in time.
“I have managed to defy heaven and alter my fate, and I have to thank you all for helping me achieve it.” Shui Zhener walked toward them and stooped slightly to salute them. The people still didn’t quite realize what was going on, but their instincts detected a dangerous aura. Then, just as they feared, Shui Zhener turned into a gust of wind and started streaking among those people. They all fell down one after the other, and blood flowed across the land.
“Prin…princess?” Shui Hu, who had sworn loyalty to Shui Zhener, found it difficult to believe what was going on, even though fresh blood was already streaking across his cheeks.
“Who asked you to come here?” Shui Zhener shook her head sadly for a short moment, before she revealed a satisfied smile. After this, Shui Zhener walked softly toward Jiang Chen and examined the state of his injuries.
“You were really injured heavily,” Shui Zhener said in a worried tone. The lightning spear and Tathagata Buddhist Robe had already disappeared, while a hole had been torn in Jiang Chen’s chest, and blood was flowing out of it ceaselessly.
All of a sudden, Jiang Chen stood up and held Shui Zhener’s neck with his hand. He spouted a large amount of blood because he had moved so quickly.
“A divine body…as expected of a divine body. You are already in such a state. Yet you still can move around. How wonderful!” Shui Zhener shouted excitedly, as if her neck wasn’t being held by someone.
“My lingering power is still enough to break your neck.” Jiang Chen slightly exerted the power in his fingers, which caused Shui Zhener to groan softly. Then he immediately loosened his grip on her.
He asked, “What have you done to Ye Xue?”
“Isn’t it Prince Ping Tian who has done it? I’m innocent.” Shui Zhener opened her eyes wide and revealed an aggrieved look.
When Jiang Chen was about to exert his power once again, Shui Zhener laughed loudly. “You are the most clever man I have ever seen, and you should be proud.” Shui Zhener extended her hand slowly and streaked her fingers across Jiang Chen’s chest. “You have managed to guess my plan through the compass alone. You have really frightened me.”
“Answer my question!” Jiang Chen shouted angrily. Ye Xue couldn’t wake up regardless of what he did, and he was helpless in the face of such an issue.
“This is really enviable. I can’t help but wonder whether you can treat me like you treated her?” Shui Zhener asked.
Slap! Jiang Chen slapped her face with his other hand. “I can assure that I can surely take your life before I fall down.” Jiang Chen had used too much power, and a red mark was left on Shui Zhener’s cheek. But she still didn’t get angry, and it seemed like she had even enjoyed it. She held Jiang Chen’s waist with both hands and drew him closer to her. There was only a little distance left between their faces.
“Kiss me, and I will tell you.” Shui Zhener ignored Jiang Chen’s malevolent gaze and raised her face like a young girl, who has had her first awakening of love. She closed her eyes and waited for her lover’s kiss. When her wish was satisfied, she smiled brightly.
“So this is how it feels to kiss someone?” Shui Zhener touched her fingers to her lips, as her gaze became enthralled, and she said, “I will bear it in mind.”
