It did not take Jiang Chen long to find those were not natural lights. Numerous energies were colliding with each other in the sky. The earth was quaking. War cries were echoing. Jiang Chen felt like he was on a battlefield. He found it was a battlefield indeed after taking a closer look. Dozens of pract.i.tioners from various races were confronting almost 1,000 Sleepers.

Among these Sleepers, Jiang Chen saw Blood Kings for the first time. Since he had seen a Blood Emperor, he did not take the Blood Kings too seriously. There were also countless average Bloods there fluttering their wings. They covered the entire sky, flying around like locusts. Jiang Chen was attacked very soon. Because of his divine body, many Bloods surrounded him. There were so many of them that they looked like a dark cloud.

“Get lost!” Jiang Chen shouted in a deep voice. Then the Sky-burning Evil Flame broke out. Countless Bloods were burned up. At the same time, Jiang Chen called a practicing body out to look for Wan Renlong.

A team of five people was struggling on the front side of a hill. After achieving Martial Emperor status, there were only a few occasions in which one would choose to fight on the ground. It was either unnecessary to fight in the air or impossible to hold on in the air anymore, so one chose to take shelter on the ground. Wan Renlong was among those five people. He was bleeding a lot. Scratches from the Blood Race were all over his entire body.

“It’s surprising that the Second Young Master of the Wans is so unpopular. You asked for help, but no one came at all.” One of his companions complained to him.

Wan Renlong was really p.i.s.sed off. The person who had spoken was a woman. She was only a Martial Emperor in the preliminary stage. Her name was Xia Kemeng. She and her companions entered the Third Zone to have adventures despite the risk. They ran into Wan Renlong, and she spoke to him first, asking him to travel with them. Wan Renlong was going to decline since they were too weak. However, they were his acquaintances, and he was too kind to turn them down.

He fought with a Blood King before meeting them, and he gained an easy victory. As a result, he did not think the Third Zone any riskier than the Second Zone. It was exactly that slackness that made him agree to accompany them, and, later on, they ran into danger. He could have broken the siege, but those four became his burden and he was stuck. Even if he had wanted to part with the four, they would keep bothering him.

“None of the Wans will come?” What disappointed Wan Renlong most was that not only one person was complaining, but also the other three.

“We were traveling with you because of the Wans’ fame. And this is what we get?”

“Young Master Wan, why don’t you cover our retreat?” The last suggestion really chilled Wan Renlong. No matter who was the one that had made that suggestion, the other three’s silence was the most terrible part.

“This is the only way. Young Master Wan, you are stronger than us. Only you can do this.”

“You are a man. Don’t you know you should protect girls?” After Xia Kemeng spoke, the four made a decision. Even if Wan Renlong wanted to protect himself from them, it would be too late. Grasping his shoulders and back, the four pushed him forward. Wan Renlong became much clumsier because of that. He was madly attacked by the Blood Race. That was exactly what the four wanted. They hid behind him until they had entered a safe area.

Wan Renlong swore, but it did not work at all. When he was regretting that he had said yes to the four b*tches, a sharp and quick-moving sword suddenly showed up. It killed lots of Bloods in an instant.

“Reinforcements?” Wan Renlong and the other four were struck dumb. Especially the four women—they did not know what to do at the moment after having been so mean to Wan Renlong. However, they became resolute again after seeing who had come to help them. They did not give up their plan. Instead, they went even further.

“Ridiculous. All the help you’ve got is a Martial Emperor in the preliminary state. Young master of the Wans? Boo!” Xia Kemeng snorted.

“It’s him?” However, when Wan Renlong had seen who it was, he was pleasantly surprised. He had heard about what had happened in the small city a long time ago. Then he informed his younger sister Wan Ruoxi about it. He wanted to stop Jiang Chen from going there to court death. But to his surprise, Jiang Chen took some insane actions all the same. If his younger sister were not in the city as well, he would not have tried to help on any occasion. Certainly, in the end, he did not do anything, because when he got the updates again, Jiang Chen had gained a big victory.

By killing Yao Zhiyan, Tian Weiyi, and some strong Wizards and Monsters in a row, his strength had made a great leap. As to what he had told Yao Zhiyan, Jiang Chen would be extraordinary once the latter became a Martial something.

Gradually, the four women behind him also found the Martial Emperor guy in the preliminary stage was actually very strong. The Bloods around them were all killed before long. Even a Blood King was killed in an instant. The four were so scared that they let go of Wan Renlong right away. Then they kept retreating.

A light flashed in Wan Renlong’s eyes. He turned around to attack. His sharp weapon was pierced toward Xia Kemeng. In the end, it left a b.l.o.o.d.y hole in her throat. The other three were frightened out of their wits. They knelt down to beg for his mercy. Wan Renlong snorted. He attacked again to kill all of the three women.

Jiang Chen happened to land on the ground at this moment and saw what was happening. He did not say anything, because he had seen how the four had intended to sacrifice Wan Renlong.

“Let’s get out of there.” The two broke the siege and left the battlefield.

“My friend, please help us kill Blood Kings.” Other people noticed Jiang Chen’s strength. They invited him to join them.

Jiang Chen, no idea what this was about, looked toward Wan Renlong. The latter showed an angry look. He said, “These people keep changing places to fight so that more people will be involved and sacrifice lives for them.” This team fighting with the Blood Race was a big team. They were somehow surrounded by the Blood Race. To survive and find helpers, they involved some innocent people in the fight. Besides struggling at their deathbed, they even wanted others to die with them.

Jiang Chen did find that the Blood Race on the battlefield were getting stronger and stronger. The Blood Race were probably deliberately letting those people struggle in order to suck more blood. Jiang Chen did not want to help them, but to stop them from going on harming others, he chose to stay. He switched on the Eye of Heaven to overlook the entire battlefield. He was looking for the strongest Blood there, a Blood King.

This Blood King had been lurking in the dark. He would not show up easily. However, as long as someone was dying, this guy would give that person a fatal attack, like a viper lurking in the dark. This Blood King had almost recovered 60 percent of his strength through this trick! Once he recovered 70 percent of his strength, he would be almost as strong as the Blood Emperor Jiang Chen had met in the mountains. A Blood King in his prime was much fiercer than a Blood Emperor who had just awoken.

To cut off the head of the snake, Jiang Chen put on the Tathagata Buddhist Robe and charged toward him holding the metal thunder spear. However, the Blood King had antic.i.p.ated his attack. The Bloods were so densely packed that they looked like a wall. But Jiang Chen would not be stopped by such a small trick. The true body went forward to throw a punch over. The Sky-burning Anger gushed out to burn the wall to ash. The Solar Golden Flame was improved. The Sky-burning Anger formed by it and the Sky-burning Evil Flame had achieved 30 percent of the power it was supposed to have.

Jiang Chen worked this out some time ago. He supposed his father must have mastered the Solar Golden Flame as well to master the Sky-burning Evil Flame. The essence of the Sky-burning Anger uniquely created by him lay in this combination of the two.

However, Jiang Chen had only achieved 30 percent of his father’s level.
