Dragon-Marked War God

“You’re courting death. If I, Fen Gudong, want you dead at the third watch, you will never live to see the fifth!”

Fen Gudong said proudly. He stood with his hands at his sides and slowly clenched his fists. In this battle, he was determined to make Jiang Chen die without a burial place. He was bound to get the Myriad Qi Cauldron!

“Make your move. Let me see what you’ve got.”

Jiang Chen stared coldly at Fen Gudong. The two of them were at daggers drawn, and the battle was imminent.

Fen Gudong threw a punch that shook the mountains and rivers like thunder. It struck right beneath the Heavenly Dragon Sword, and Jiang Chen was sent flying back, struggling hard.

“Your strength has already taken a heavy blow, yet you still dream of competing with me. That’s simply a fool’s dream. Even at your peak, you couldn’t be my match. Accept your death.”

Each of Fen Gudong’s punches shattered the void, striking terror into people’s hearts. His momentum was like a rainbow, overwhelmingly powerful.

Niu Tianlang, standing to one side, also sneered. No matter how strong you are, Jiang Chen, can you withstand an elder of the Ghost Pill Sect? So what if you’re a Sword Lord of the Drawing Sword Sect? Now you’re already at the end of your strength. This Profound Connection Divine Palace will be your burial ground.

Fen Gudong’s momentum was like a rainbow and his fist force was extremely ferocious. Fist shadow after fist shadow overturned heaven and earth, nearly throwing Jiang Chen’s sword qi into complete disarray. Jiang Chen retreated in order to advance, already feeling extremely strained. It seemed he would have to fight with his life on the line in this battle.

At some point, an extremely sinister Death Scythe had appeared in Fen Gudong’s hand. The giant scythe kept swinging out and chopping down, forcing Jiang Chen to go all out to block it. The Death Scythe reaped upward, and that terrifying pressure left Jiang Chen almost unable to move an inch.

The Death Scythe harvested souls. A terrifying aura spread through the void and a soul pressure came crushing down. Fen Gudong’s Peak Divine Emperor Realm soul had always been the method he was proudest of. This time it was sure to kill with a single blow.

However, for all his calculations, Fen Gudong had never reckoned that Jiang Chen’s soul power would be even more terrifying than his own. That terrifying soul power poured out like a tide, chilling people to the bone.

At this moment, the Death Scythe could accomplish nothing at all.

“Soul Exterminating and Soul Seizing!”

Jiang Chen instantly unleashed a soul strike. Overwhelming soul aura filled the void. Not only did the Death Scythe’s attack gain no advantage, it actually put Fen Gudong in a very difficult position, unable to move an inch. Pursued by Jiang Chen’s Soul Exterminating and Soul Seizing, Fen Gudong was sent flying backward with a pale face. He barely managed to steady himself, his eyes full of unparalleled horror.

But at the moment Jiang Chen unleashed the soul attack, he was also suffering quite a bit, because the difference between his soul power and Fen Gudong’s was not very great. The strength of an Emperor Realm soul, however, lay precisely here, so Jiang Chen had not held back and had heavily wounded the other’s soul directly. Still, wounding the enemy had cost him dearly too. His own soul power had also taken some injury. Jiang Chen still could not fully control the power of his Emperor Realm soul.

“Your soul power is actually this terrifying.”

Fen Gudong held his head, his face pale and ashen. He had nearly been hit full on by Jiang Chen’s soul strike. Fortunately, Jiang Chen’s control over his Emperor Realm soul was not yet like a fish in water.

“Damned bastard, you just refuse to go down. I’ll make you regret ever coming into this world.”

Fen Gudong roared angrily and closed in again. The Death Scythe spun through the void with boundless strength. Jiang Chen gripped the Heavenly Dragon Sword amid bursts of dragon roars and humming, but he still could not gain any advantage over Fen Gudong; he was even forced back step after step. Although Fen Gudong had just been heavily wounded in his soul, it was nowhere near enough to kill him. After all, his strength was formidable enough, and his soul power strong enough, that he had survived the Soul Exterminating and Soul Seizing just now.

“I’m only afraid you don’t have that ability.”

Jiang Chen’s eyes turned slightly cold. At this moment, a rain of swords burst out in every direction. Jiang Chen’s Eighteenth Sword had finally taken on a perfect embryonic form.

“The Eighteenth Sword!”

Flying swords crisscrossed with peerless momentum. Jiang Chen swept his sword up and clashed with Fen Gudong again and again. The momentum of the Eighteenth Sword was invincible, putting enormous pressure on Fen Gudong. That invisible domineering force had already driven Fen Gudong back step after step.

The moment the Eighteenth Sword truly took shape, Jiang Chen’s Limitless Sword came infinitely close to perfection. The sword moved with his heart. Sword shadows and sword qi combined into one, balancing attack and defense, without the slightest stagnation. Compared with the Seventeenth Sword, its power was more than ten times fiercer.

“War Scythe, rise! Wrathful flames, burn!”

An invisible fire shadow spread across the void, trying to drive Jiang Chen back, but Jiang Chen’s sword momentum was far too ferocious, without the slightest flaw. The sky full of fire shadows was cut into flying ash by Jiang Chen. Fen Gudong’s face went pale and he retreated again. This time, his injuries grew even more serious.

Jiang Chen stood holding his sword. Blood kept seeping from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes stayed fixed on Fen Gudong. Fen Gudong’s mind was already extremely grave. This guy’s methods had made him deeply uneasy.

It seemed he was no longer sure of winning this battle. Fen Gudong could not help sighing inwardly. This Sword Lord of the Drawing Sword Sect really was terrifying enough. He absolutely could not let him escape. In today’s battle, he had to grind his bones to ash. The Myriad Qi Cauldron was something he had to get.

“Now, let me see what other tricks you have.”

Jiang Chen pressed toward Fen Gudong step by step. Fen Gudong’s face twisted and his whole body began to tremble. This Jiang Chen really was no easy opponent. Luckily, he had made plans long ago.

At this moment, although Jiang Chen had heavily wounded him, Jiang Chen himself was not much better off.

“You’re celebrating a little too early. Elders, it’s time for you to make your move.”

Fen Gudong snorted coldly. In an instant, three figures broke through the air and arrived, sealing Jiang Chen completely in their midst. All three had reached the Great Perfection of the Early Divine Emperor Realm. Their strength could absolutely not be underestimated.

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes, and his heart grew grave once more.

“For my sake, you really have gone to great lengths and planned every step.”

Jiang Chen sneered. First Niu Tianlang, then Fen Gudong, and now three more Early Divine Emperor elders of the Ghost Pill Sect had appeared. If Jiang Chen had not been strong enough, he would have been defeated long ago.

The three Early Divine Emperor elders of the Ghost Pill Sect stood on all sides, trapping Jiang Chen firmly. At this point, Jiang Chen could only smile bitterly. This bunch was truly too detestable. They were simply trying to force him onto the road of death.

“You aren’t worth anything, but the Myriad Qi Cauldron is worth far too much. There are far, far too many people in the Central Region Divine Land who want it. Hehehe, the one who strikes first wins, the one who strikes late suffers. Before long, I expect news that you hold the Myriad Qi Cauldron will spread across the whole Central Region Divine Land.”

Fen Gudong said with a smile.
