Chapter 1551 – (1/2)
Fierce Combat in the Valley
No one was surprised by the fact that Jiang Chen could eliminate the two intermediate Immortal King blood demons so easily. After all, they were quite clear about Jiang Chen’s capability. During the time in the outer prefecture, not even the Immortal Emperor Yang Ling was his opponent. And at that time, Jiang Chen was merely a half-step Immortal King.
Nevertheless, they were still astounded by how Jiang Chen absorbed the two blood demons. They hadn’t seen such a technique before. The bodies of the blood demons were 3 meters in height. Even if they were killed or smashed to pieces, their flesh wouldn’t just completely evaporate. Everyone on the scene had great eyesight. They could see that Jiang Chen was using some sort of technique to absorb the flesh of the blood demons. This was what terrified them.
“What a horrifying technique! It can actually absorb the blood and Qi essence of the two blood demons? Who would believe it without witnessing it with his own eyes?”
“I have no idea what kind of cultivation Jiang Chen is practicing. Blood demons are evil creatures. It won’t be good if one try to forcefully absorb them.”
Wang Ye and the others secretly speculated. After all, Jiang Chen’s performance was just very frightening. It was totally beyond their imagination and comprehension. The physique of humans and demons were essentially different. So it wasn’t a simple thing for a human to refine a demonic beast. Whether it was the demon soul or its essence, it could easily cause a backlash. It was totally unthinkable that Jiang Chen was able to absorb it so casually.
“Let’s go. Don’t delay any longer. We only have half an hour. In order to get the Blood Dragon Fruits, we must get rid of all the blood demons here, because any blood demon that is alive is going to defend the Blood Dragon Fruit against us.”
Big Yellow reminded, then turned into a ray of light and rushed into the depths of the valley.
*Roar…* *Roar…* *Roar…*
Meanwhile, roars reverberated in the valley like waves. Judging from the volume and frequency of the roars, they could already sense the massive number of blood demons and its terror. In this valley lived a group of blood demons that was at least hundreds in numbers. Under the circumstance of not knowing the blood demons’ cultivation base, it surely posed a huge threat to Yang Bufan and the others.
“Kill them!”
Yang Bufan clamoured, unleashing all of his Immortal Emperor Qi, and lunged forward. The others didn’t delay. They had already been mentally prepared before arriving in Golden Horizon. Battle was just a common thing because it would be totally impossible for them to live a month of peaceful life in this place.
“Sister Ning, go into the Ancestral Dragon Pagoda.”
Jiang Chen looked at Wu Ningzhu and spoke. “After getting the Blood Dragon Fruit, I will think of ways to help you improve your cultivation base. Until you reach the late Immortal King realm, only then can you participate in battles in Golden Horizon. Otherwise, you will absolutely die in the face of any evil creature.”
“En.”
Wu Ningzhu nodded and went into the Ancestral Dragon Pagoda without hesitation. She knew very well about what Jiang Chen had said and her own strength. Although she was gifted and had powerful means, her cultivation base was still too weak. Her techniques were too weak in front of the mighty blood demons.
After entering Golden Horizon, she had to listen to Jiang Chen’s wishes unconditionally. To her, it was best that she hid in the Ancestral Dragon Pagoda. At least, she wouldn’t be a burden for Jiang Chen and the others. There would still be intense fights against those demons after this. Not becoming a burden was the greatest help she could provide to Jiang Chen and King Fan.
*Hong……*
The moment Wu Ningzhu went into the Ancestral Dragon Pagoda, Jiang Chen unleashed his powerful Qi and cast out the dragon transformation. The Heavenly Saint Sword materialized in his hand. He shot forward into the valley like an arrow fired from a bow.
In the depths of the valley was a land, a green oasis. The extremely mystical-looking blood-red ancient tree grew at the centre of the oasis. The tree was a few dozen meters in height. Its trunk was so wide that one couldn’t even embrace a quarter of it with both arms. The branches of this ancient tree had no leaves. There were only nine separate leafless branches, each with a blood-red fruit the size of a fist hanging from it. Those fruits were as red as blood, and seemed incredibly divine. Those nine rays of blood-red light pillar came exactly from these fruits.
Blood Dragon Fruits. That was right. These were Blood Dragon Fruits. The entire valley had blood light lingering around it and was filled with exuberant blood Qi. Any ordinary cultivator that cultivated here would surely become an unparalleled expert someday, because the intensity of blood Qi in this place was just too high. It was exactly a treasured place for cultivation. This could be seen from the power of those blood demons.
The blood demons that were standing in front of the Blood Dragon Fruit Tree emerged in the air one after another. All of them were 3 meters tall, covered in full blood-red scale armor, seemingly incomparably frightening. Over one hundred blood demons had laid siege to the whole valley, trapping Jiang Chen and his comrades within.
The blood demons emanated frenzied killing intent. Each of them gritted their teeth and showed ferociousness in their eyes. These people were undoubtedly their enemies. The Blood Dragon Fruits were going to ripen soon. Anyone who had the intention of plucking the Blood Dragon Fruit would be regarded as mortal enemy by these blood demons. The only way to deal with them was to eradicate all of them.
“Dammit! These blood demons are too strong. The weakest among them is an intermediate Immortal King. They also have a dozen of half-step Immortal Emperors.”
Dong Fei couldn’t help but gulp. For someone who was only a late Immortal King, such a force was just too scary.
