The Brilliant Fighting Master

Jiang Chen didn’t bother speaking. He turned the long sword into a golden spear once again. Those two different shapes represented different traits. A sword was quick and sharp, while a spear was tyrannical and peerless.

After he finished forming the golden spear, Jiang Chen charged forward like a war chariot and thrust the spear. The spear strike could only be called thunderous!

The defensive magnetic field around Xiao Qin’s body was nearly torn apart. But as Jiang Chen approached Xiao Qin, he felt a greater obstruction. When there were just two yards left between them, his spear couldn’t go any further.

“It’s useless…” Xiao Qin was about to mock him.

But Jiang Chen didn’t give her a chance to mock him. His power erupted and extinguished the magnetic field. Xiao Qin was sent flying and ended up slamming against a wall heavily. Many cracks that looked like a giant cobweb appeared on the firm, hard wall.

Jiang Chen examined Xiao Nuo’s state. He didn’t need to bother with the harm brought upon her by Xiao Qin, as just the sole fact that the crystal box was open was deadly. If Xiao Nuo didn’t get the soul stones in time, the Three Lives Divine Art would fail, and she would become a dead person.

“Hand over the soul stones,” Jiang Chen shouted sharply. “If you don’t finish the Three Lives Doctrine Art, you won’t get what you want, and your outcome will be the same as your sisters. You will become a cripple.”

Xiao Qin slid down the wall, and her thin legs propped up her body. When she heard Jiang Chen’s words, a confused look appeared on her face. But her pupils’ blood-red color became more intense, and she wore a crazy smile at the corners of her mouth. “It seems like there is someone who knows the ropes. Do you think that I will let someone who will pose a great threat to my clan come back to life?”

As Xiao Qin opened her mouth once again, she spoke in two different voices—one belonged to a man, while the other belonged to a woman. It was a weird sight!

“You would rather die, is that the case?” Jiang Chen said. He wasn’t questioning the evil spirit, but Xiao Qin, whose consciousness hadn’t been erased completely yet.

“I’m obviously able to alter this matter, and, as long as the body is destroyed, you will become the sole Heavenly Woman. On the contrary, if you complete the Three Lives Divine Art, you won’t get any benefits, and you will end up exploited by them.” The evil spirit was trying to bewitch Xiao Qin.

“It’s only through completing the Three Lives Divine Art that you can get back your freedom,” Jiang Chen spoke in a deep voice.

The Three Lives Divine Art was a part of a complex plan, and no one was aware of what kind of accidents might occur in its execution, because it had to be carried out over a long time. This was how the Southern Sea Heavenly Monarch and Jiang Chen’s father had arranged everything. They had looked to the Xiao family and entrusted the soul to them. The benefits received by the Xiao family were that the seven women, who would get the soul, would get the same talents and aptitudes as Xiao Nuo. This was why the seven women had immortal-grade Martial Daises.

However, if they didn’t finish using the Three Lives Divine Art, the outcome for the seven women would be the same as for Xiao Xiao and all the other women who were outside. It was a pity that Xiao Qin didn’t listen to Jiang Chen’s words. The evil spirit had invaded her mind long ago and started brainwashing her secretly. It affected her intellect. It was probably also due to the evil spirit that Xiao Qin had managed to seek the help of Xiao Jiantian and others. She had exploited Xiao Jiantian’s desire to get a perfect Martial Dais to lure him here, and he ended up taking the bait.

Jiang Chen noticed that Xiao Qin’s pupils, which shone with a ferocious glint, were staring at the crystalline box.

“Don’t even dream about it!” Jiang Chen’s heart shuddered, and he folded his palms, sat down cross-legged, and started reading aloud from the scripture. As Jiang Chen started reading the scripture, Xiao Qin’s expression changed drastically. She became anxious and scared, while pain appeared on her face.

Xiao Qin quickly changed her goal and flew toward the great gate. Jiang Chen attacked her to obstruct her. But since he had stopped reading the scripture, Xiao Qin’s speed had recovered to normal, and she turned into a ray of light and ran away.

“Hateful!” Jiang Chen was angry. If he still had his magical clones, one of them could read the scripture, while the other was fighting.

Jiang Chen charged out of the hall, and he discovered that Xiao Qin was floating in the air, while a fiendish aura filled her whole body. An evil spirit’s possession wasn’t something as simple as an ordinary body possession that erased its owner’s consciousness. What an evil spirit wanted to do was taint the former owner’s consciousness and make him succumb into a darkness so that they could fuse together and form a new soul. The reason why they took such actions was quite appalling. It was because the evil spirits wanted to trick the Sacred Spirits and escape the Bloody Sea Realm. Once one or two of them managed to escape, the consequences would be too horrible to contemplate.

Jiang Chen swept the people outside the hall with his gaze. He wanted to read the scripture to restrain his opponent and ask other people to attack it. But after he observed them, he couldn’t find anyone with satisfactory fighting prowess. This was why Jiang Chen could only hold his spear and charge forward.

“Well?” Xiao Qin, who was quite afraid of Jiang Chen’s offensive techniques, furrowed her brow, while her blood-red eyes became filled with confusion.

“Are you only capable of reading the scripture?” Xiao Qin questioned him to sound him out, while she pulled out her sword to face him.

The evil spirit didn’t bring any protection to Xiao Qin’s fighting prowess, and all the martial techniques she was using had been possessed by her formerly. But she still managed to depend upon them to block the spear strike. The Water and Fire Conceptions formed a chaotic power, which was disintegrating the divine lightning ceaselessly.

“A World Destroying Sword Move!” Xiao Qin possessed a powerful and imposing aura, and, as she used a sword move, it seemed like no one would be able to avoid her Water and Fire Sword.

Jiang Chen waved his spear and obstructed her. When he suffered such an attack, he felt his palm becoming numb, while his shoulder was nearly dislocated.

“This is unreasonable!” Jiang Chen discovered that the power in his opponent’s sword didn’t come from the sword itself. “The fiendish energy, it’s the fiendish energy!” Jiang Chen quickly figured that out, and he put on the Tathagata Buddhist Robe. The opponent’s fiendish energy would promote his fighting prowess. But as the Buddhist Robe’s golden radiance shone upon the fiendish energy, it was whittled away.

Jiang Chen took advantage of such a chance to attack his opponent. But he discovered in surprise that the golden spear in his hands had transformed back into the Immeasurable Ruler. Such a transformation surprised and delighted both Xiao Qin and the evil spirit inside her body. “It turns out that it’s like this, these two states can’t be used at the same time.” Xiao Qin laughed in mockery, and it could be discerned from her voice that the evil spirit was quite pleased with itself.

Buddhist Will and Buddhist Power were both special forces and weren’t like martial techniques and magical techniques, which could be combined. It seemed as if Jiang Chen was in an awkward predicament. If he didn’t use the golden lightning, his fighting prowess would lower drastically. But, if he used the golden lightning, he wouldn’t manage to restrain the fiendish energy possessed by Xiao Qin.

“You are pleased with yourself too early,” Jiang Chen said. Such a situation had occurred just because Jiang Chen didn’t deal with everything in time, and he raised the Immeasurable Ruler once again. The golden lightning surged once again even though the Tathagata Buddhist Robe didn’t disappear and the spear appeared once again.

“How is this possible? Impossible! It’s impossible!” The evil spirit cried out in disbelief.

The Buddhist Path possessed great restrictive effects on the Blood Clan’s members, and that was why they had a good understanding of it. They were aware that it was impossible for what Jiang Chen had accomplished to occur. All of a sudden, the evil spirit recalled something, and its pupils contracted.

“Buddhist Heart and Doctrine Bones! You have a Buddhist Heart and Doctrine Bones!” The evil spirit cried out in alarm several times, and it looked at Jiang Chen with a gaze filled with fright.

“You are mistaken, it’s a Doctrine Heart and Buddhist Bones. However, there isn’t really any difference between them for a dead person.” Jiang Chen was wearing the Tathagata Buddhist Robe and holding the golden spear in his hand, while he charged at Xiao Qin. When the spear struck Xiao Qin’s chest, its energy surged into her body and tightened. After a short while, the outline of the evil spirit appeared behind Xiao Qin’s back, and it was forcefully dragged out. The evil spirit, who was separated from Xiao Qin, still wanted to escape. But as it suffered the golden lightning strike, it was extinguished thoroughly.

Jiang Chen carried Xiao Qin, who was in a stupor, and entered the hall. He asked her to take out all the soul stones.

“If Xiao Nuo suffers any mishaps, I will make you regret coming into this world,” Jiang Chen spoke coldly.

“No! You can’t blame me for this,” Xiao Qin tried to explain it weakly, while she took out seven soul stones.

The soul stones, which were the size of an average peanut, revolved around in the crystalline box, and the light within them started turning into a fog in front of Jiang Chen’s nervous gaze. That fog fell on Xiao Nuo’s body that was in the crystalline box.
