The Brilliant Fighting Master

The status God of Fire Descends to the World can help me improve my conception of fire.

I was possessed by the devil for a long time. For that reason, I was able to manipulate the tenth turn of the Sky-burning Evil Flame. My conception of fire was certainly improved too.

That’s why I was reborn.

Jiang Chen started to analyze the situation after he became calm. First of all, he figured out why he had survived and why he had become younger. His body was still a divine body. And due to the rebirth, it had become purer. Different from last time, what had happened to him this time made him sublime. He had advanced in both Buddhism and the great doctrine.

What Azure Demon cared about most was Jiang Chen’s state and the change in his strength. He did not hope Jiang Chen would recover the strength he had had when he had been possessed by the devil of the Doctrine Heart, because that was too much to expect. He did hope, however, that Jiang Chen could break the curse and become a Great Venerable.

However, nothing happened. Jiang Chen’s body was like an abyss. He could not see anything in it. It was a shocking fact. Azure Demon was sure he was not disabled, but he was in a status that needed a breakthrough.

“Making after breaking!”

It was something impossible to seek. Azure Demon had read about it in books. If there was no breakthrough in such a status, in time everything would go back to the beginning. He was eager to remind Jiang Chen that he should seize his chances. However, Jiang Chen was not in a hurry at all. While his attainments in Buddhism improved, he was not as eager for fighting anymore.

He walked out of his room to look up at the sky. It was still very vivid for him how he had walked out of the mountain. He had experienced numerous life-threatening risks and finally made it to the Three Middle Realms. There he got to know many people.

At this moment, Jiang Chen was walking in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Compared to when he had left, the changes here had been world-shaking. Before, the Southwind Ridge had only ruled a small corner of the mountainous area. Now, the entire area was the Southwind Ridge’s territory. The buildings were not any worse than those of the Top Ten Sects and Schools of the Fire Field. They were even better.

Seeing a teenager wandering in the mountains, the folks there warned him to be careful out of good intentions, since there were still monsters in the mountains. They did not know that this teenager was exactly the person who had made all these changes happen. He looked familiar to them, but they could not recall who he was.

Without disturbing anyone, Jiang Chen escaped to his own world. His stride was the same, but he was walking faster and faster. The huge land was small to him. A single stride could take him dozens of miles away. The world before him was receding like a tide. In the end, he stopped at the highest peak, overlooking the entire land and the sunrise along the horizon.

Once his mood changed, everything changed accordingly. Not sure whether he could fly or not, Jiang Chen took a step ahead anyway. Then he started to fall rapidly. When he was about to fall to his death, he finally managed to fly. In this way, he went back to the mountain city.

It was noon. Since Jiang Chen had come back, the entire family had gathered together. His grandpa, his second uncle, and his cousins were all present. There were many things they did not know about Jiang Chen. They had no idea how strong he was or how he had been doing in the outside world. Looking at him, they all felt it was impossible to see through him. He was too sophisticated to interpret.

After lunch, Jiang Chen took a walk with Gao Yue.

“You spent six months in a coma. There are changes happening in the Nine Realms every day,” Gao Yue said. Besides living in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, Gao Yue was also the young lady of the Gaos of the Dragon Field. That was why she was well informed.

After the Realm of Evil Spirits showed their tough attitude, they requested to abolish the agreement between them and the Nine Realms. They intended to intrude into the Nine Realms to compete for power with the human race. In addition, descendants of various clans that had only existed in ancient history books also appeared. However, she found her son was not really interested. She said, “Do you have any plans?”

“I’ll bring father back,” Jiang Chen said.

“Okay.”

Gao Yue did not have any dissenting opinions. She looked worried. She said in a caring tone, “Although you were in a coma during the last six months, you always looked like you were in pain. A rebirth shouldn’t have been like this. The only explanation I can think of is that you’re being tortured by something.”

“Sorry, mother. I made you worried.”

“As long as you are safe, everything will be fine.” Gao Yue wanted to persuade Jiang Chen to stay in the Realm of Nine Heavens. With his current attainments, no one here could be compared to him. However, she also knew the Realm of Nine Heavens was a small pond, while her son was a dragon. Sooner or later, he would fly away.

“Stay here for some more time,” Gao Yue said.

“Okay.” Jiang Chen did not intend to leave immediately, so he would stay just as she wished.

Until one day, Jiang Chen left the mountain for a remote place. Wherever he went, a tumbling thundercloud followed him overhead.

Xue’er, I won’t disappoint you. I promise you I’ll break the curse. Jiang Chen murmured to himself.

“I see.” Azure Demon tumbled to reality. Making after breaking was not something people could search for. During all this time, Jiang Chen had been following his heart and contemplating. In this way, he had finally seized the chance of making after breaking. Once he conquered the Kos of thunders, he would be able to break the curse of the divine body and enter a new state.

Jiang Chen arrived at the sea. Where he stopped, the whole sky was overcast.

“Come on.” Jiang Chen lifted his chin. The resolution in his eyes came from numerous life-or-death experiences. Nothing could shake it.

Then the sea turned to a sea of thunders. Jiang Chen started to swim in it.

“Thunderstruck!”

Seeing all kinds of Kos of thunders appear, Azure Demon grew indifferent. However, Jiang Chen stayed calm. He did not even look ferocious when he was accumulating power. Swimming in the sea of thunders, he was being impacted by the Kos of thunders again and again. In this process, like an empty container, endless energies flew into Jiang Chen’s body.

“Making after breaking!” Azure Demon exclaimed.

By then, Jiang Chen was experiencing endless profound lore. Mysterious spiritual patterns fell into different parts of his body. Jiang Chen would accomplish a feat that no one had accomplished over thousands of years. Most important, it was not dangerous for Jiang Chen at all. When the last tumbling thunder had struck, the sea of thunders disappeared and the world went quiet again. Without using his own power, Jiang Chen was emitting light. He looked solemn and sacred. People would be eager to worship him if they saw him.

“Great Venerable!” Azure Demon shouted excitedly.

“This human is full of possibilities,” the black dragon also said approvingly.

“Jiang Chen! Go to the Three Middle Realms and surprise those people!” Azure Demon proposed.

However, Jiang Chen only smiled. He did not intend to do that. He did not feel surprised at having broken the curse. Instead, he felt sad, because he could not share this with the only person he trusted.

“Xue’er,” he murmured, returning to the mountain. His fighting power had improved hundreds of times, but he felt nothing.

Azure Demon also realized how stupid his proposal had sounded. However, he did not think a person like Jiang Chen would stay in his childhood home forever. For the moment, what Jiang Chen could do was to bring his father back, to find Fan Tianyin, and to explore the Sacred Zone with her. As for other things, he would leave it to destiny. He did not want to seek anything for the moment.

After staying for a few more months in the mountains, Jiang Chen set off. He was going to find a way to save his father. Just as Azure Demon expected, Jiang Chen was going to the Three Middle Realms. He was going to the Desolate Forbidden Land to look for Desolate Spirits.

However, before his departure, he wanted to visit some friends. He had not been back to the Realm of Nine Heavens for a long time. And he did not know when the next time for him to come back would be.
