Chapter 192: Like a Spirit, Like a Demon, Invincible

The memory ended completely.

Chen Yan slowly woke up.

He was still immersed in the memories, in the research Chi Mi and Xia Hanzhou conducted on the Chi Family Bloodline.

What seemed like a simple memory actually contained Xia Hanzhou and Chi Mi's own research into the Flame-Ice Tree patterns.

There were actually two ways to save Chi Mi.

One was to completely eradicate the Malice within Chi Mi's body.

The other was to destroy Chi Mi's Ice-Fire Bloodline.

Eradicating the Malice was something Xia Hanzhou could not do.

Therefore, the other party chose to use the Array Path to destroy the Chi Family's bloodline.

Just as in the choice Chi Mi made in the memory.

The other party chose the strong-willed Lu Xunyang and the array-proficient Xia Hanzhou as companions.

It was for the sake of learning.

But because Lu Xunyang's will was simply not something an ordinary person could learn.

They turned instead to attacking the Array Path.

Chen Yan pondered, a sentence surfacing once again in the depths of his mind.

At the founding of Great Xia, the Xia Zhu and the Five Clans bathed together in the blood of the Ancient God.

This simple sentence seemed to tell of everything.

The Chi Family's Ice-Fire Bloodline was very powerful.

But it had a fatal weakness, which was its inability to withstand Malice; one could even say the Chi Family Bloodline could strengthen Malice.

Was the Chi Family like this because they had bathed in the blood of the Ancient God back then?

"Finished watching?"

To the side, Shen Keqing spoke.

"Yes." Chen Yan nodded.

High above, within the Light Curtain, Xia Hanzhou's expression was exceptionally serious.

"What are your thoughts?" Shen Keqing asked.

"Lu Xunyang is very strong," Chen Yan said:

"Truly very strong!"

Within the memory, Lu Xunyang was simply too Cai Neng Jue Yan.

Moreover, Chen Yan could clearly feel it.

That person was the one walking the same path as him!

Chen Yan knew that Shen Yiwei had always wanted to save Lu Xunyang.

Shen Yiwei felt that the other party had been forced to go to the Ancient God Forbidden Land.

But at this moment, having watched the memory.

Chen Yan was puzzled; who could force Lu Xunyang?

The Five Clans?

Or the Xia Imperial Clan?

Or was it that the other party had wanted to enter of their own accord?

Silence.

Shen Keqing's red lips parted.

Xia Hanzhou's body stiffened.

After waiting for so long, that was all you had to say?

Chen Yan Stood Up and bowed to Shen Keqing:

"Although I know the senior also has her own thoughts, since I entered the Tianjiao Trial, the significant opportunities I have gained have all come from the senior.

I want to say that what I can do, I will do."

Shen Keqing's expression cleared slightly; Xia Hanzhou's lips moved within the Light Curtain, as if not knowing what to say.

"You are good-looking and speak well; you must have many girlfriends," Shen Keqing laughed:

"The Hundred Meridians breakthrough should be starting soon; you can put this matter aside for now and prepare for the struggle of the Hundred Meridians breakthrough."

Chen Yan's Mu Jin flickered, and he nodded:

"I think it is better if I continue the trial."

A trace of surprise appeared in Shen Keqing's eyes.

Chen Yan, however, said quietly:

"The so-called breakthrough struggle was set by the Ancient God, but the hardships I have set for myself over the days are no easier than the breakthrough struggle.

The great Suffering in the eyes of others may just be a small stage on my path of Cultivation Technique."

Nonsense.

On the Po Saint Tree, another Sacred Fruit was about to ripen; Chen Yan did not want to take it easy at this time.

Battle!

He wanted to battle!

A trace of confusion flashed through Shen Keqing's eyes.

She seemed to have heard words like these before.

When?

Did Lu Xunyang say that?

Or someone else?

"Very well, everything depends on you."

Shen Keqing spoke:

"That voice from before was Xia Hanzhou's. If you want to master the Extreme Cold Ice Pattern, you need to condense the Blazing Sun Tree Pattern within your eyes; only then will you truly be able to see it."

Having said this, she turned and left.

Chen Yan nodded.

Within his Frost Mo, strands of ink-colored Grain Mark flowed and swirled, forming a Tree Pattern.

It was true.

The moment Chen Yan condensed the Tree Pattern in his Frost Mo, incomplete Ice Crystal patterns appeared on the bodies of the Pseudo Ancient Divine Beast within his line of sight.

Although incomplete, they were the same as the Blazing Sun Tree Pattern.

As long as Chen Yan continuously recorded these Extreme Cold Ice Pattern and then kept condensing them onto his own Blazing Sun Tree Pattern, he would be able to obtain the true Blazing Ice Tree Pattern.

It was just like doing a jigsaw puzzle.

These things were originally meant for Chen Yan to explore step by step.

But at this moment, Shen Keqing and Xia Hanzhou clearly knew he did not have much time, so they told him directly.

In fact, even if they hadn't told Chen Yan, Chen Yan would have roughly figured out the method.

After all, by continuously entering the Illusion Realm, Chen Yan could have discovered it.

Chi Mi, who had already transformed into a Pseudo Ancient Divine Beast, appeared to be fighting Xia Hanzhou.

In reality, Chi Mi was using the last shred of their consciousness to condense Array Patterns.

These Array Patterns were the embryonic forms of the Extreme Cold Ice Pattern and the Blazing Sun Tree Pattern.

The other party did not want to become a Shen Shi and could not accept becoming a Shen Shi.

And after seeing Xia Hanzhou's memories.

Chen Yan clearly experienced some of the past between Xia Hanzhou and Chi Mi; within these past events, there was also Chi Mi's research on the Blazing Ice Tree Pattern.

The other party was someone burdened by misfortune, constantly defying Fate to change their destiny.

Roar!

All around, the Pseudo Ancient Divine Beast that had been frozen began to revive at this moment.

Explosive roars resounded.

The battle continued!

Inside one Castle after another.

The city gates opened.

Shen Youning, Shao Hengyang, Lu Linqian, and other New Dragon Guard Heavenly Pride appeared.

On the other side, Gong Fanling of the Gong Family and the Hidden Tianjiao Huo Tingnan also appeared.

Hiss.

Inside the Castle at the very edge, a group of Heavenly Pride from the Alliance walked out.

They looked at each other, and at this moment, a trace of determination seemed to flash in their eyes.

"I think everyone is clear about the strength of that Shen Shi."

Huo Tingnan, wearing a Daoist robe, spoke:

"The Gong Family and the New Dragon Guard have always been at odds, but this time we must cooperate."

Lu Linqian let out a cold snort:

"Who wants to cooperate with you?"

Lu Linqian stood with hands on Waist:

"I'm not happy about not being able to beat that Shen Shi, but cooperating with you makes me even more unhappy."

Shao Hengyang and Shen Youning both remained silent, but their attitude was already clear.

"Let's have a fight then."

Shao Hengyang spoke:

"Let's fight first, and both sides will eliminate one party."

Gong Fanling frowned, while the Alliance on the other side trembled in fear.

"There are five of you in total, and only two of us; who are you going to fight?" Gong Fanling frowned and said.

She glanced at the Daoist-robed Huo Tingnan and walked forward on her own:

"We will go fight that Shen Shi first; you New Dragon Guard better not try to be the Yellow Sparrow!"

Shen Youning's Mu Jin was cold and indifferent:

"Rest assured on that point; I don't believe the two of you can defeat that Shen Shi."

Even if she wanted to defeat that Shen Shi.

But the hostility between Shen Yi and the Gong Family transcended a mere Tianjiao Trial.

Huo Tingnan pursed his lips:

"That's not necessarily true; I'm actually quite strong."

He followed behind Gong Fanling, running at high speed toward the Shen Shi.

On the side, a girl from the Alliance shouted:

"Sister Fan Ling, wait for me, we will go with you."

Saying this, several Alliance Heavenly Pride followed closely behind.

As for the remaining few Heavenly Pride, they looked at Shen Youning and the others at this moment.

"In a moment, we strike together," Shen Youning said.

Everyone nodded.

At the same time.

Amidst the Frost, Gong Fanling gritted her Silver Tooth:

"New Dragon Guard!!!"

"Alright, it's already quite good that they didn't use fewer to fight more," the Dao-robed Huo Tingnan said with a sheepish Smile:

"According to my understanding, the Gong Family has a hard time beating the New Dragon Guard; honestly, let's stop comparing."

"What do you know!" Gong Fanling said in a low voice:

"As long as Shen Yiwei is in Yunmeng City for one day, my Gong Family must suppress them for one day. If my Gong Family doesn't suppress them, where would you get your resources from?"

Huo Tingnan pursed his lips.

That was indeed true.

The Alliance of families had invested quite a lot in the Gong Family, precisely because they wanted to rely on the Gong Family to check and balance the New Dragon Guard.

"Since that is the case..."

A trace of Indifference Smile appeared on the corner of Huo Tingnan's Mouth:

"Let me, this Hidden Tianjiao, also display my skills a little."

As he spoke, the roaring within the Frost ahead was endless.

Huo Tingnan's speed accelerated instantly, and a half-meter-long writing brush suddenly appeared, its tip lightly tapping the space.

An ink-colored cage was drawn by him.

Behind him, a Smile appeared on the corner of Gong Fanling's Mouth:

"Finally willing to get serious?"

She said, looking at the several Heavenly Pride of the University Alliance behind her:

"Follow up. When he strikes, we strike. If the New Dragon Guard side wants to wait, let them keep waiting!"

The several Heavenly Pride of the University Alliance nodded in unison, a trace of hope appearing in their eyes.

This Huo Tingnan seemed to possess extraordinary Method.

Huo Tingnan's speed was extremely fast, and he soon Disappear from everyone's sight.

Yet, from ahead.

Boom.

A loud explosion came, and everyone's expression shook instantly, just about to strike together.

But they saw.

A broken cage transformed from ink-color smashed over instantly.

Huo Tingnan's body was blasted away like a cannonball, his entire eyes filled with shock and helplessness.

Boom, boom, boom!!!

Huo Tingnan's body smashed onto the Bing Di, the Bing Di shattered, Deep Pit after Deep Pit Appear, and ice shards spread wildly toward the surroundings.

"Huo Tingnan!"

Gong Fanling held her breath instantly, her whole person as if frozen.

The rest of the University Alliance Heavenly Pride also lost their voices instantly.

"He... he!!"

Huo Tingnan's breathing was rapid, and at this moment, he spat blood from his Mouth, speaking with difficulty.

His eyes were filled with shock.

Boom!

The Corpse of a Pseudo Ancient Divine Beast smashed down from the Heaven, instantly slamming onto Huo Tingnan's body.

Gong Fanling was just about to speak when she suddenly felt a scorching hot Wind Element strike, and endless Golden Light occupied her vision.

In an instant, she met those eyes.

Gong Fanling only felt her Brain tremble.

Behind.

Boom.

Chen Yan smashed a Fist into Gong Fanling's stomach, and a low roar was heard.

Gong Fanling's body was sent flying, circles of Golden Light ripples unfolding and spreading wildly.

On that fair face with exquisite Appearance, it was filled with astonishment and horror.

The severe pain in her abdomen could not hide her stupor.

She had never been treated like this in her entire life.

If she were to know that the person who threw the punch was the very one who had once competed with her Sister for Limit-Breaking Awakening.

She would likely be even more terrified.

Her body was carried by immense force, continuously flying backward.

As she passed, the waves of air that exploded outward blasted the geniuses of the University Alliance away one by one.

Everyone found it indescribable; this was the one they had been dealing with, that Ancient Divine Beast.

Where was this an Ancient Divine Beast?

This was clearly a Demon Spirit that could not be opposed.

Behind, the approaching Shao Hengyang suddenly stiffened.

Shen Youning and the other geniuses of the New Dragon Guard also wore expressions of astonishment.

"Holy Crap!"

Shao Hengyang's mouth hung wide open, as if he could almost swallow a Goose egg.
