"Keep going! The power of the bloodstain is not enough, we need to do this seven or eight more tis." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon stood before the Jade Basin, excitedly rubbing his hands, his eyes filled with excitent.
Zhang Chen turned his head, suspiciously glancing at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon. Why was he so happy about Zhang Chen’s secret plot against the carp?
The Great Freedom Celestial Demon noticed his own abnormality and imdiately restrained his expression, explaining slowly: "I was just thinking, we can’t miss this opportunity. If there’s a chance, we must devour its Dragon Soul; then our strength will take another huge leap forward."
Upon saying this, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon encouraged Zhang Chen: "I see the power of the bloodstain is sowhat lacking. Why not hide the Blood God Child in there too? Anyway, your Blood God Child is of no use at the mont; it would be better to use it to transform that carp. When Zhang Shicheng, the old man, transforms into a dragon and ascends to heaven, and the fish leaps the Dragon Gate, its True Spirit will return. By then, its soul will be tainted by the Sea of Blood Power, and that will be the perfect ti for us to harvest."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen glanced at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon. After a mont of thought, he felt the other party was also making sense. The Blood God Child was very secretive, not only capable of devouring flesh, Essence, Qi, and Spirit, but also capable of hiding secretly within the souls of living beings.
If Zhang Shicheng’s soul returns and devours the carp’s soul, it will surely also swallow the Blood God Child with it.
By then, if his Blood God Child devours Zhang Shicheng’s soul, to what unimaginable level would his Blood God Child grow?
But what does any of this have to do with the Great Freedom Celestial Demon? Why is this old thing so happy?
However, no matter what the Great Freedom Celestial Demon is so excited about, this matter is entirely beneficial to him, with not a single harm, so Zhang Chen naturally had no reason to refuse.
The skin on Zhang Chen’s body shifted, and within no ti, his flesh had re-differentiated, returning to its original state, with no trace of the flesh having been cut away.
Zhang Chen raised his hand, and another piece of flesh was cut away. The Blood God Child, attached to this, flowed out from the Sea of Blood within Zhang Chen’s Crystal Core, burrowing into the excised flesh.
Then Zhang Chen extended his palm, covering the flesh with True God Golden Light to conceal its aura. With a casual flick, it landed in the Jade Basin. Just as the flesh entered the basin, a purple bead had already impatiently rushed toward it, attempting to absorb the Light of the True God before the carp. But the carp gave a swish of its tail, sending the bead flying, and swallowed the flesh in one gulp.
"It’s done!" The Great Freedom Celestial Demon excitedly rubbed his hands: "That Zhang Shicheng is dood this ti."
Zhang Chen put away the fishing rod and carefully sensed the Blood God Child. He saw the Blood God Child, carrying the power of the bloodstain, directly seeping into the carp’s blood, tainting its entire Essence, Qi, and Spirit, transforming its bloodline.
Then he saw the entire carp glowing red, blood-red lotus flowers growing on its scales, each blossom reaching eleven grades, looking quite eerie.
A faint fragrance of lotus spread within the room, a scent both present and not, continuously surrounding Zhang Chen’s nostrils.
"What changes have occurred?" Zhang Chen looked at the lotus flower patterns on the carp and was puzzled.
anwhile, within Zhang Chen’s Crystal Core, the Sea of Blood roared up in a frenzy of wind and waves, and a fish appeared in the boundless Sea of Blood, swimming joyously among the lotuses.
The fish seed identical to the carp outside, sharing a mysterious sense of connection.
"How could such a change occur?" Zhang Chen was sowhat puzzled in his heart, turning to look at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, whose face was full of excitent, suspecting that this old thing seed to know sothing.
"Don’t ask ; I don’t know anything." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon preemptively deflected before Zhang Chen could speak: "Your own thods, if you don’t know them, how would I?"
Seeing the Great Freedom Celestial Demon skillfully evading the question, refusing to reveal the truth, Zhang Chen was filled with anger but chose not to argue with him, as he had a premonition that the birth of the first life form in the Sea of Blood was perhaps a good thing for him.
At this mont, after the fish had undergone its transformation, it actually turned to chase after the purple bead. This ti, with the enhancent of the Blood God Child, its speed was much more agile, making the bead’s attempt to evade seem cumberso, and the fish bit down on a piece of it.
With a bite of the bead, it seed that the fish’s spirituality increased, and its body began to flicker with a bit of inexplicable luster, seemingly undergoing so peculiar change.
"I say... won’t anything happen if the fish keeps munching on the bead?" Zhang Chen turned to the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, uncertainly asking.
"That fish is Zhang Shicheng’s substitute, and that bead represents the ancestral vein of Prince Pingbian’s Mansion. He wants to transform into a dragon, so he must devour the aura of the Northern Land and seize its Creation. By devouring his own family’s aura, even if sothing bad happens, it’s their family matter, what’s it got to do with you?" The Great Freedom Celestial Demon replied.
As they spoke, the fish caught up with the bead once again, taking another fierce bite, biting off a piece from the edge.
Zhang Chen always felt that things were not as simple as the Great Freedom Celestial Demon made it seem, but he was unable to stop it and could only let it be.
Just as Zhang Chen was still struggling in his heart, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon reminded him from the side: "If I were you, I’d quickly carry the corpse and flee, or find a place to hide the body. This is what you should be considering right now. Later, when Prince Pingbian’s troops catch up, it will be harder for you to escape. You can’t possibly flee with the Water Dragon following you all the way, can you?"
At this, Zhang Chen cleared his mind, turning to the body, patting the body’s Protective Golden Light, then decisively stepped out of the house. Ultrasonic waves spread out to sense the city’s situation, and the next mont his eyes widened: "Goulan County is in chaos!"
In the night, Goulan County was ablaze with fire as soone seized the opportunity to set fires, and now the entire compound made of wood structure was burning uncontrollably; it wasn’t long before the entire city blazed.
The most crucial thing was that the military gathered in the city with evil energy surging to the skies, leaving no opportunity to perform techniques to extinguish the fire.
Martial World outlaws were using the chance to act out, and soon, Goulan County resounded with killing shouts, embroiling both the Martial World mbers and Prince Pingbian’s troops in a fierce battle.
With nurous buildings in the city, the army’s advantage couldn’t be fully exercised, and with civilians present, powerful crossbow arrows couldn’t be used. Prince Pingbian’s Mansion was unexpectedly unable to quell the rebellion.
At this mont, thousands of troops surrounded the lake, searching for boats to cross over and suppress Zhang Chen.
But Zhang Chen commanded the water in the lake to transform into Weak Water, which couldn’t support even a feather, rendering boats as heavy as stones; as soon as they touched the water’s surface, they sank directly.
Zhang Chen chuckled with satisfaction, carrying his niece’s body, preparing for a breakthrough.
"For , my rebellious niece’s corpse is always a big headache. If I were alone, I could easily break out by using the Invisibility Technique, but carrying my niece’s body makes a clear target, impossible to escape. Even if I break out with the body of the Princess, outside the city, Yang God Level, and Yin Spirit Level experts will block my way, making it even harder to escape with the Princess’s body."
"I must first properly deal with my niece’s flesh to have a chance to break out. Then, seizing the opportunity to escape alone will be easier. Moreover, I absolutely mustn’t escape outside the city; if I escape outside, soone might see through my thods, and then revealing my cards would be troubleso. Only by using a Wonderful Technique within the city to escape can those people neither discover nor counter my thods."
At this mont, Zhang Chen’s mind was clear, continuously contemplating various strategies.
"Perhaps I should dig a pit and bury her?" Thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen’s mind: "Of course, the key issue is to solve the problem of the Princess’s Mysterious Power leaking. Otherwise, even if I bury her a thousand feet underground, it will still attract that group of people."
