The evil flame quickly overtook the slowest two of the Almighty Experts. It first started burning their hems, before it turned them into men completely on fire in just two or three seconds.

Swoos.h.!.+

Jiang Chen managed to easily cut apart the light net that wasn’t controlled by anyone, and he started hunting down the other Almighty Experts.

“Die!” Every Almighty Expert retaliated with his whole power when he was chased down and displayed shocking spirit skills. The Blood Shadow Dynasty’s spirit skills were profound and brilliant. They possessed great destructive power, and it was difficult for anyone to guard against them.

There was one among them who fused with the shadows and attacked quietly with his sword from the dark, while another one possessed a power of darkness able to ignore anyone’s protective dipper energy, as well as all defensive measures.

However, regardless of what kind of skills they used, they still couldn’t harm Jiang Chen. His sword was capable of extinguis.h.i.+ng all techniques, and he had an indestructible body, which couldn’t be damaged.

When the last Almighty Expert was killed by Jiang Chen’s sword, the whole Blood Shadow Dynasty descended into a panic, and everyone felt like calamity was looming over them.

“We should immediately mobilize our strongest force, and we must take him for the greatest threat we have ever faced.”

“We mustn’t allow a human to bring our imperial dynasty to an end.”

The Imperial Capital’s citizens ran over to the imperial palace’s wall and started shouting all at the same time. Even the Imperial family’s members in the palace were restless and anxious. When the Heavenly Wolf Army was destroyed, they still hadn’t taken him seriously and felt like everything was still under their control. However, when the Sacred Light Fortress was destroyed, everyone was convened into the main hall. All of the Imperial family’s members were gathered in the main hall. They were all making a racket and arguing ceaselessly. It was no different than a street market!

It was only when the Worldly Net didn’t manage to subdue Jiang Chen, and the eight Almighty Experts died that the main hall descended into silence. Even the fall of a needle could be clearly heard now.

Everyone was worried, and they looked at the tall, upright person on the Imperial throne out of the corner of their eyes.

“I have already investigated it clearly. My little brother, as well as the great army, which had more than 100,000 soldiers, which sealed both sides of the roads, were exterminated completely,” the Blood Shadow Emperor spoke.

All the people in the hall started whispering to each other, and some of them felt as if they were going crazy and couldn’t keep control of themselves. But, they still quickly calmed down.

“The Ice Spirit Clan’s saint, who was Jiang Chen’s wife died tragically, and this is the reason why he wanted today to destroy the Blood Shadow Dynasty,” the Blood Shadow Emperor spoke once again.

“Our dynasty has paid such a grave price just because of the trifling death of a single person,” a middle-aged man with white hair on his temples spoke angrily.

“That’s right, why don’t you go inform Jiang Chen of such an argument and discuss it with him?” The Blood Shadow Emperor looked over at him and spoke while wearing a cold smile.

The middle-aged man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground while s.h.i.+vering with fright.

The current Jiang Chen was like a devilish G.o.d. He started a great ma.s.sacre, and both G.o.ds and Buddha alike couldn’t block him. If he went to him, he would obviously die.

“Anyone who still talks drivel now will be sent by me to meet Jiang Chen,” the Blood Shadow Emperor said.

Upon hearing him, the whole hall descended into silence once again.

“Only the last defensive line is left, and, after it, he will manage to reach the Imperial capital and attack the Imperial Palace,” the Blood Shadow Emperor stood up and his dignified face was wearing a grave expression.

“Couldn’t our great Blood Shadow Dynasty obstruct even a single human?”

No one responded. It seemed from Jiang Chen’s performance throughout his journey that no one in the Great Venerable Realm could obstruct him. What was above a Great Venerable was a Martial Emperor, Martial Saint, Martial Sovereign, and Martial G.o.d.

It was unfortunate that the Three Middle Realms’ factions relied mainly on just Great Venerables, and their upper limit was just a Martial Emperor.

Any faction who possessed a single Martial Emperor could govern a great expanse of land in the Three Middle Realms. Besides a person’s cultivation realm’s power, what was left was formations, barriers, war weapons, and other similar techniques, which were a faction’s backbone power.

The measures used by the Blood Shadow Dynasty would let even a Martial Emperor suffer a loss, and this why if a faction wanted to destroy another faction, it would need to possess power greater than it by a whole fold. However, it wasn’t always the case because many outstanding geniuses would appear in the cultivation world, and they could cultivate to a high realm, and run amok freely like the current Jiang Chen.

“If our last defensive line can’t block him, we will have to use our secret force! Pa.s.s down orders, the defensive line should be defended at all costs or it will die,” the Blood Shadow Emperor shouted coldly.

The Blood Shadow Dynasty’s last defensive line was just a single person, and it was the Blood Shadow Dynasty’s great general, General Xue Zhan.

General Xue Zhan’s position was like one of the Blood Shadow Dynasty’s inheritances, and such a position would be pa.s.sed down from generation to generation in a certain influential family. Anyone who became General Xue Zhan was t.i.tled the greatest general. It was like the Blood Shadow Dynasty’s symbol and was a great legend.

When news spread out that Jiang Chen had invaded them, General Xue Zhan put on his armor and went into battle. He was ready for such a great battle.

When Jiang Chen was already able to faintly see the Imperial capital at the end of his line of sight, he also witnessed General Xue Zhan. He was seven feet tall, and every part of his body was protected by armor. This wasn’t an ordinary armor, and every part could separate and a.s.semble freely, which allowed General Xue Zhan to move freely. What was more important was that the pieces of armor protecting his vital parts were all crafted from excellent materials used to craft Doctrine Artifacts. The armor had a scarlet color, and it flickered as the metallic l.u.s.ter was touched by the sun s.h.i.+ning upon it.

General Xue Zhan was holding in his hands a long spear that weighed 1,000 pounds, and one couldn’t see his face because even his head was covered by armor.

When Jiang Chen approached him, General Xue Zhan didn’t utter a single word. He just charged forward bravely while holding onto his spear.

At this moment, the Blood Shadow Dynasty’s citizens, whose hopes were practically extinguished, were all scared and on edge. However, it was fortunate that General Xue Zhan displayed an excellent performance. He thrust his spear forward, and it shone with a light as dazzling as the sun, while great power erupted out of it.

When Jiang Chen suffered the spear’s strike, he was sent flying a very long way. The citizens had their first glimmer of hope, and they all felt like they were panicking over nothing.

“Even if this human was strong, he won’t be stronger than our Spirits, will he?”

“He’s just a reckless and ignorant human, and the general must teach him a vicious lesson.”

“He should let him regret the day he came to this world.”

The sacred prince in the Imperial palace had also relaxed, and he felt relieved. If Jiang Chen really charged into the Imperial Palace, he wouldn’t have any place to hide his true body.

“He’s really an idiot, but he still caused my Blood Shadow Dynasty to suffer such heavy casualties. I will surely take revenge and attack your friends and family,” the sacred prince muttered to himself.

However, it was only General Xue Zhan himself who knew clearly that his situation was anything but rea.s.suring, and it was especially the case because after he repelled Jiang Chen, the fiendish aura on his body started rising in power drastically, and his eyes were becoming more terrifying. Those didn’t seem like a pair of eyes of an intelligent living being.

All of a sudden, everyone witnessed Jiang Chen sheathing his swords, his hands still holding onto the sheath. Such a stance made many people recall what had happened in the t.i.tle Battle, and how Jiang Chen had used such a move to kill their spiritual son.

Just as they started worrying, Jiang Chen instantly attacked with his sword. His movement was so quick that no one managed to have a clear look of it, and they just witnessed an arc streak across the sky. Just after that, General Xue Zhan’s body stopped moving.

Jiang Chen sheathed his swords once again and looked at the Imperial Capital, and then proceeded toward it. While at the same time, General Xue Zhan’s armor started disintegrating, as was also the case for his body.

At such a moment, many of the Blood Shadow Dynasty’s people felt like doomsday was coming, and the citizens started fleeing, using their highest speed to leave the city so that they wouldn’t be implicated.

“Could it be that no one can obstruct him?”

“Is the Martial Sovereign lending him a helping hand? Didn’t they all say that the Great Sovereign’s power could last for just three minutes?”

“He’s too strong! Is such a person still human?”

“Why did they provoke him?”
