Chapter 320: Bloody Land, the Legend of Ao Hongchen

On a yellow wasteland, a strong scent of blood permeated the air.

Here, murderous aura surged, even affecting the heavens.

Every drifting cloud that passes this area is dispersed by the murderous aura.

When Jiang Chen arrived, he felt his own murderous aura was almost uncontrollable, and he struggled to suppress it.

Hong Jishi stared at the Calming Pill in Jiang Chen's hand, "That pill was also given to you by that girl, just like the Fatigue Elixir."

Jiang Chen nodded, "Yes."

Hong Jishi smiled, didn't probe further, and asked, "Do you know where this is?"

Jiang Chen shook his head.

Because the teleportation distance was great, he was already far from the Shenlong Empire and couldn't match the scene before him with the Human World map.

Hong Jishi led him forward, explaining as they walked, "No need to trouble yourself; this place doesn't exist on the Human Race's map. It's not in Human territory, nor in the Abyss, nor in Dragon Race lands. It's an independent space like the Otherworld Battlefield or the Ancient Battlefield. This is called the Bloody Land."

Bloody Land—its name fits perfectly.

The air was thick with a strong scent of blood, and the yellow ground was actually formed from dried, weathered blood.

Hong Jishi didn't walk slowly, and Jiang Chen had to give his all to keep up.

A gale howled in, and the murderous scent filled the surroundings.

Jiang Chen wondered what kind of person would choose to live in this place.

Hong Jishi sensed Jiang Chen's doubt, and with a hint of contempt explained, "A blood‑thirsty old monster lives here."

At that moment, a loud voice rang out, and the sky suddenly produced a

blade.

"Fuck your mother's fart! Hong Jishi, your dog‑mouth can't spit ivory!"

The great sword roared out a hundred‑meter blade of light, raining down everywhere.

As if to destroy heaven and earth, it surpasses even the Four-Winged Brutal Ox King.

Under the blade light, the ground cracked, and heaven and earth shook violently.

Hong Jishi roared, "Old monster, daring to hurt my disciple, I'll tear your bones!"

Hong Jishi leapt skyward, meeting the blade light.

A pair of divine fists collided with the blade light, exploding with dazzling radiance.

Terrifying energy erupted in the air, surging in all directions.

The bone armor glimmered, and after holding for two seconds it shattered with a boom.

The Undead Legion were wounded one after another.

Jiang Chen was horrified; even the shockwave alone was comparable to a Four-Winged Barbarian Bull King Clone.

Is this the power of a Divine-level Strongman?

Jiang Chen realized he had no clue how strong a Divine-level Strongman truly was.

Hong Jishi's might is far beyond anything the Four-Winged Brutal Ox King could be compared with.

He estimated that Hong Jishi killing the Four-Winged Brutal Ox King would not take much effort.

No wonder Hong Jishi's earlier words about the Four-Winged Brutal Ox King were full of disdain.

The gap is indeed huge.

The blade light surged again, its stance as if to slay Hong Jishi.

What a deep grudge—upon meeting, they immediately go for a life‑or‑death fight.

Hong Jishi roared, "You're fucking crazy!"

A pair of gauntlets appeared in his hand; Hong Jishi had already drawn his weapon.

Both sides clashed in the air.

Huge shockwaves kept coming, and Jiang Chen was hit.

The bone armor kept being shattered by the aftershocks; Jiang Chen had no choice but to continuously renew his bone armor.

The Undead Legion appeared in dense swarms; if they stayed in the Summon Queue any longer, they wouldn't last.

Only by reaching the outside

realm, the Lich General can heal them, allowing them to endure.

Seeing Jiang Chen unharmed, Hong Jishi felt at ease and counter‑attacked even more wildly.

A pair of divine fists kept pounding the great sword.

The fists were like phantoms, delivering at least hundreds of blows each second.

Jiang Chen was completely dazzled; at this level of attack, he feared he would be instantly blasted to crumbs.

Moreover, Hong Jishi wasn't even using any skills; it was just ordinary attacks.

The shockwave had become visible to the naked eye, spreading out in concentric circles.

The ground roared, and space trembled.

The warblade was repeatedly forced back by Hong Jishi, finally flying away.

A silhouette surged from the distant sky, crossing thousands of meters in the blink of an eye, and seized the warblade.

The warblade's light flared, its kilometer‑long blade tearing heaven and earth.

Truly a cataclysm.

Within the blade light surged intense killing intent, sweeping the world.

The entire space changed, the scent of blood surged skyward.

Kill!

Jiang Chen's barely stable killing intent was instantly stirred, and the killing intent on his body also rose.

His eyes were filled with the hue of slaughter.

A wave of murderous aura, visible to the naked eye, surged skyward.

At this moment, Jiang Chen lost his last cooldown.

Hong Jishi roared, "You madman, I should never have come looking for you, you bastard!"

He could of course see that Jiang Chen's condition was very poor at this time.

A light flickered on the back of Jiang Chen's hand.

The "Strong Soldier" skill activated.

With his right hand he pointed, skill: Damage Curse!

His left hand blazed, skill: Soul Burn!

Anyone who comes, could be a Divine-level Strongman.

In Jiang Chen's eyes at this moment, they were the enemy.

Since they are the enemy, kill!

The Curse and Soul Burn erupted simultaneously, and the Skeleton Mage's skill rained down from the heavens.

Regardless of its power, in terms of momentum and scale

Even Hong Jishi was startled.

The mere 39th-level Jiang Chen was not even considered by the opponent.

"Curse!" the man sneered, murderous aura surging skyward, and the effect of the Curse was instantly greatly weakened.

A spark of flame landed on his head, his whole body shivered, and he let out a muffled hum.

The sky‑rising murderous aura instantly weakened considerably.

Pain! It really hurt!

The pain from the soul level made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Immediately after, a green Aura exploded around him.

Skill: Poison Star Ring.

He was instantly coated with a layer of green.

"You can still poison?" the man was even more curious about Jiang Chen.

He glanced at Jiang Chen, swung his great blade casually, and instantly cut down all of the Skeleton Mage's spell attacks.

An attack of this level was of no use to him at all.

Hong Jishi at this moment fell back beside Jiang Chen, slapped Jiang Chen's shoulder with one hand, "Wake up!"

With a roar, the murderous intent in Jiang Chen's eyes receded a bit.

His consciousness returned, and he quickly took out a bottle of Calming Pill and drank it.

Under the effect of the Calming Pill, Jiang Chen's gaze gradually cleared.

His previous memories were very clear, and Jiang Chen hadn't expected that he would dare strike a Divine-level Strongman.

Being controlled by murderous aura made his actions extremely uncomfortable.

"Teacher."

Hong Jishi said nothing, patted his shoulder, "Put it away."

Jiang Chen hummed and put away the Undead Legion.

Hong Jishi looked up and shouted, "Old monster, you've already fought, come down."

The man kept a composed face, flew down with anger.

The damage from the Poison Star Ring continued, equivalent to several hundred thousand power attacks per second.

As he fell, an Aura on his body exploded.

The Curse and Poison Star Ring were simultaneously

dispelled.

After landing, he stared at Jiang Chen with a low gaze, "Is this your student?"

Hong Jishi showed a proud expression, "My disciple, not bad, right?"

He said in a deep voice, "Not bad, a mere 39th-level daring to strike a Divine-level Strongman, probably doesn't know how to write the word 'death'."

"Stop the nonsense, you can see what just happened." Hong Jishi snorted.

The two faced each other point‑blank, giving the other no face at all.

Hong Jishi said to Jiang Chen, "This guy is Ao Hongchen, his profession is Divine Warrior, level 95."

Jiang Chen felt a sudden respect; he had seen Ao Hongchen in books, which detailed the various battles Ao Hongchen had experienced.

He was a figure of the same level as Hong Jishi, and he upheld an era for the Human Race.

Ao Hongchen's most classic battle was a solo fight against three Abyss Demon Kings.

He killed one and the other two fled.

He himself remained unharmed.

Later, for unknown reasons, Ao Hongchen vanished without a trace, actually having secluded here.

"Jiang Chen has met senior Ao Hongchen."

Regarding senior members of the Human Race, Jiang Chen's attitude was respectful.

Such figures are all worthy of respect.

Ao Hongchen gave a faint hum, "Why did you bring him here?"

Hong Jishi said, "Can't you see? The kid has killed too many demons, now he's being corroded by murderous aura, and we brought you for help."

Ao Hongchen's face changed, "You covet my treasure? I think you're not only a dog that can't spit ivory, but also daydreaming."

Hong Jishi said, "Hey, it's just an item, keeping it is useless."

"Besides, when the Human Race juniors are in trouble, shouldn't you, as a senior, act righteously?"

Ao Hongchen showed a faint cold smile, "

If it's another's disciple you could discuss it; your disciple—no need to talk about."

Hong Jishi said, "That's going too far, whose disciple matters? Xiao Chen is, after all, the top‑tier genius among peers; don't you want to know how his killing aura came about?"

"Guan Laizi's business is none of my concern!" Ao Hongchen let out a cold snort.

To be honest, he was still a bit curious.

Where does a Level 39 get such huge killing aura?

The killing aura has already completely surpassed Jiang Chen's level.

Hong Jishi didn't care what he said, and kept on speaking to himself......
