Chapter 291: Jiang Chen So Terrifying, Hong Jishi Shocked

In the Abyss World, green flames spread.

This vast realm also contains both strength and weakness, the distinction between righteousness and evil.

The Abyssal Fire shows a deep hue, its depth indicating the abundance of Abyss Energy, and more powerful demons are stationed in this area.

Where the green flame tinges the deep black, a magnificent palace stands proudly.

This palace is larger and more exquisite than the Enchantress Demon King's.

Waves of breathing sounds emanate from the palace.

"Who is so bold as to dare harm my son!"

"In the name of the Black Sky Demon King, with Abyssal Soul as seal, be reborn!"

Beneath the palace, the dark green flame surged like a volcano erupting, soaring skyward and engulfing the entire palace.

Within the flame, a High-level Demon gradually appeared, first as a phantom, then solidifying.

After a few minutes, it fully formed.

Finally, the dark green flame subsided, leaving only the demon hovering in midair.

Hei Tian Mo Zi has revived; originally at Level 64, after revival its level dropped to Level 60.

Its aura is weak, not fully recovered, yet it barely remains at the threshold of a High-level Demon.

Its wings flutter slowly; though revived, its face still bears the fear from before death.

Between life and death lies great terror, for every race alike.

Hei Tian Mo Zi takes a long while to recover.

Before it, a massive demonic shadow slowly materializes.

It blocks the sky and sun; when it appears, space trembles.

The eternally burning Abyssal Fire presses down in unison, as if paying tribute to it.

Hei Tian Mo Zi bows respectfully toward the shadow, kneeling in the void, "Son, I salute the Father King."

Black Sky Demon King hums, "Who killed you?"

Black Sky

Hei Tian Mo Zi says, "I self‑detonated."

It recounts what happened then, recalling the moment of self‑detonation, its heart still racing.

Black Sky Demon King listens patiently, then remains silent.

The surrounding space trembles, the Abyssal Fire twists, changing with its mood.

Its every move already influences all directions.

After a while it says, "Necromancer Summoner, a new Talented Profession of the Human Race."

"It should be a Talented Profession, looks quite good."

"He should not have died; for such a talent, the Human Race would certainly protect him."

"But even if revived, don't expect recovery within a year."

"You go down first to rest well; once recovered, continue training and make up for this loss."

Speaking, a strand of hair falls from the Black Sky Demon King.

The hair transforms in midair into a black Long Spear, landing in Hei Tian Mo Zi's hand.

Hei Tian Mo Zi respectfully receives it, "As you command!"

It flies back into the palace.

Black Sky Demon King still stands in the Abyss World, eyes gazing afar, "There is the scent of the Enchantress Demon King; seems we must ask the Enchantress Demon King."

After it disappears, the Abyssal Fire reignites fiercely.

Space likewise returns to calm.

Jiang Chen experiences being blown up for the first time, feeling extremely refreshing.

A Level 64 demon, wielding an unknown Weapon, self‑detonated together.

Its power is unimaginably massive.

Bone Armor didn't block even a single second.

Such an attack, in Jiang Chen's memory, has only occurred twice.

Once it was the death ray of the Flame Demon King.

Another time was the Black Fire Meteor of the Ancient Luan Bird.

"Fortunately... fortunately there is a Summon Life Link."

Jiang Chen looks

at the Summon Queue, at the condition of the Skeletons.

Skeletons together with the Lich General are collectively heavily wounded.

The Skeletons' golden bones are covered with countless cracks.

The Lich General likewise, its desiccated skin riddled with wounds.

Though not on the brink of death, more than half is damaged.

Without the Summon Life Link, via damage transfer, this time the Undead Legion would have lost at least half.

The cost would be enormous.

Now, the Undead Legion is merely collectively severely wounded; in the Summon Queue, it will recover soon.

【48】 Jiang Chen still feels somewhat fortunate.

Jiang Chen still felt somewhat fortunate.

The Ancient Battlefield remains calm; a mountain peak collapses, insignificant to the vast, boundless Ancient Battlefield.

Like a drop of water falling into the sea, not even a splash.

In the ruined mountain peak, a pure white light flared, like a Light Belt shooting straight into the sky.

Bone Fang, with its powerful penetrating force, shatters rock.

Jiang Chen's fingertips glowed faintly as he forced a passage through the ruins using Bone Fang.

Seeing again the eternal unchanging light on the Ancient Battlefield, Jiang Chen let out a long sigh.

"We should go back."

Finding a flat patch of ground, he took out the teleportation scroll and activated it!

The scroll unfolded automatically, glittering.

It quickly etched a one‑time Teleportation Array beneath Jiang Chen's feet.

Leaving the Ancient Battlefield requires breaking space and crossing a vast distance.

It must be done with a Teleportation Array; a Teleport Stone cannot achieve it.

Two minutes later, the Teleportation Array burst with brilliant light, carrying Jiang Chen away.

The cross‑space teleport gave Jiang Chen a completely different teleportation experience.

In this moment, he recalled Lin Cai'er, who was afraid of teleportation.

"If we let her perform cross‑space

teleportation, she'd probably feel even worse."

A faint smile lifted the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth.

After a few minutes, his feet touched the ground again.

The familiar scent of tea and the sound of wind through the bamboo forest.

Jiang Chen returned to Hong Shen Courtyard.

Li Xueru was drinking tea alone, eyes still closed, and said, "You're back."

Jiang Chen saluted Li Xueru, "I have the honor of meeting you, Lord Li."

Li Xueru hummed, "Rest for a while; your teacher will be back soon."

Jiang Chen went to the tea table and brewed tea for Li Xueru.

Battlefield No. 1, within the Hall of Heroic Souls.

Hong Jishi and Yi Qianjue were still sitting there.

During this time, the two hadn't gone anywhere.

Jiang Chen's Soul Mark was far stronger than when he first left the Ancient Battlefield.

This shows his level increased on the Ancient Battlefield.

Yi Ning was the same, having risen a bit.

The two felt no danger and their expressions were relatively relaxed.

Suddenly, Hong Jishi laughed heartily, "The stinky kid is back."

Jiang Chen returned to Hong Shen Courtyard, and his Soul Mark changed, being precisely captured by Hong Jishi.

Yi Ning hadn't returned yet, but there was no danger.

Yi Qianjue said, "It's good you're back."

Hong Jishi stood up, "Old Yi, I'll head back first."

Yi Qianjue also rose, "Together, I'd like to go see your student."

He was somewhat curious about Jiang Chen.

Hong Jishi's standards were lofty; being taken as his disciple and rated as Super God Resource marked one as a top‑tier prodigy.

As for how great a prodigy, one must see to know.

Yi Qianjue also wanted to compare, to see who was stronger between her and her own granddaughter.

Hong Jishi laughed, "Then let's go together and see how that stinky kid is

doing on the Ancient Battlefield."

The doors of the Hall of Heroic Souls thundered shut, and the entire hall exuded solemn majesty.

In the whole Human World, those who can enter the Hall of Heroic Souls are few.

During Jiang Chen's journey to the Ancient Battlefield, only Hong Jishi and Yi Qianjue were in the Hall of Heroic Souls; no third person entered.

A few minutes later, Hong Jishi and Yi Qianjue returned to Hong Shen Courtyard.

Seeing Jiang Chen unharmed, Hong Jishi laughed joyfully, "Stinky kid, not bad—you're already th Level."

Jiang Chen respectfully saluted Hong Jishi, "Student has the honor of seeing the teacher."

Then he turned to Yi Qianjue and said, "You must be Lord Yi; the junior has the honor of meeting Lord Yi."

Yi Qianjue was startled; he was sure he hadn't met Jiang Chen, "Do you know me?"

Jiang Chen said, "You resemble Miss Yi Ning by about sixty percent; I doubt I'm mistaken."

Yi Qianjue and Yi Ning, the grandparent‑grandchild pair, indeed had some resemblance, the key being that Jiang Chen saw the Summoned Beast beside Yi Qianjue.

He wasn't a fool; across the Human Race, only one or two Summoners could stand on equal footing with Hong Jishi.

So it was easy to guess.

Yi Qianjue sized Jiang Chen up from head to toe.

th Level, Necromancer Summoner.

A brand‑new profession, nothing else can be discerned for now.

Hong Jishi swaggered over and sat down, "Tell me, what did you experience on the Ancient Battlefield this time? Did you gain any good opportunities?"

Jiang Chen recounted everything in detail.

However, he only covered the main points, glossing over the minutiae.

As for the matter of the Divine Land Tripod, of course he won't mention it.

Since entering the Ancient Battlefield, he first encountered the Soul‑Eating Insect King, and then took down the Soul‑Eating Insect Mother.

He unexpectedly obtained the Primordial Seal.

Wen.

Along the way, Abyss Demons and the Dragon Race came to hunt him, and without exception each became his Military Merit.

He then also slew the Earth Touch Dragon God...

"Wait!"

Hong Jishi suddenly called a halt, cutting Jiang Chen off from continuing his narration.

He drank three cups of tea in a row, forcefully suppressed his surprise, and tried to keep himself calm.

After a deep breath, he said, "You said… you killed the Soul‑Eating Insect Mother?"

Jiang Chen nodded, "Yes."

Yi Qianjue pressed further, "You even killed the Earth Touch Dragon God?"

"That's right."

Jiang Chen answered as if it were obvious.

The shock on Hong Jishi's and Yi Qianjue's faces could not be concealed at all.

The two stared at each other, clearly seeing three words in each other's eyes: "Impossible!"

The scene fell into complete silence.

A moment later, Li Xueru suddenly burst into loud laughter, laughing with great joy.
