Chapter 90: Demon Emperor's Essence Blood

Space shook like a curtain, and Jiang Xuan's silhouette appeared from the Void.

"Jiang Ge, what divine ability is this, to leave so calmly from right under the Yaoguang Supreme Elder's nose? That's an unparalleled master at the level of a great power." Pang Bo marveled, and as a Life Wheel Sea Realm cultivator, he could not perceive the profundity of those few steps of Jiang Xuan's, only knowing it was extremely formidable.

"Jiang Xuan, will that Yaoguang Supreme Elder come after us?" Ye Fan was somewhat worried. He saw Jiang Xuan merely take a step, his vision go dark, and when he appeared again, he did not know where he was. Ji Ziyue's gaze turned grave as she looked at Jiang Xuan in shock. He cultivated the Void Scripture and was extremely sensitive to the power of space; that feeling just now was extremely similar to crossing space through a Domain Gate or a Xian Yu Terrace using Heavenly Momentum, but this fellow townsman of Ye Fan, this little brat, clearly had not used any Xian Yu Terrace.

Saintess Yao Xi looked lost in thought, as if her soul had left her body, no one knew what she was thinking.

"This place is ten thousand li away from the mountain range just now; they cannot catch up." Jiang Xuan smiled faintly. Although it seemed he had only taken one step, in that brief instant he had used the Great Shift Divine Ability ten full times, consuming immense mana, but with a large amount of source to replenish it, none of this counted for anything.

"Over ten thousand li? Jiang Ge, fuck, what divine ability is this? We learned a movement technique from a crazy old man, thinking that under the vast Tianxia we could go anywhere, but seeing you take that step, Jiang Ge, and space transform, we learned what a true great divine ability is." Pang Bo's expression was full of shock. One step, ten thousand li; ten steps was the distance of a somersault cloud. Jiang Ge, you're approaching the realm of the Qitian Great Sage.

"Jiang Xuan, what realm have you reached?" Ye Fan's expression shifted. Jiang Xuan possessed such an unheard-of divine ability; could it be the legendary Xing Character Secret?

"In terms of combat power, roughly call it Dragon Transformation." Jiang Xuan said.

Ye Fan was extremely shocked. Although he had long known Jiang Xuan's cultivation level was unfathomably high, chatting and laughing while escaping calmly from under the eyes of great powers, even bringing several people along, his cultivation realm was beyond what he could reach, but hearing it personally still left him feeling infinite shock.

"It's been two years; we've finally met again."

"Yes, two years. Although the time is short, the experiences of these two years were more thrilling than the twenty-plus years of the past. I thought I could cultivate in peace in Lingxu Dongtian, but I didn't expect worldly impermanence; things won't always go according to one's own will."

Ye Fan and Pang Bo were both deeply moved, recalling how walking on thin ice it had been all the way; surely Jiang Xuan faced even greater survival pressure.

"I see your cultivation has reached the Other Shore Realm—that's already very fast progress. In these two years, what have you experienced?" Jiang Xuan waved his hand, and some magic treasure materials appeared directly in midair. With a great hand grab, divine fire surged, and the materials melted instantly, forming a brand-new round table emitting a hazy glow. He threw in another batch of materials, which transformed into five stone chairs.

A head-sized divine source shot out, and with a breath it turned into several divine source cups. Jiang Xuan summoned a pool of heavenly water, several great medicine spirit materials, and boiled them with divine fire in the void, filling the air with a fragrant aroma before they sank into the divine source cups and were moved before the several people. Even the enemy Yao Xi got a share of a cup.

Ye Fan and the others were stunned by Jiang Xuan's extravagance. Even Yao Xi and Ji Ziyue, born of sacred land families, had never seen such a luxurious way of drinking tea—divine source as cups, great medicine as tea leaves; this was truly too extravagant.

Jiang Xuan did not care about the presence of Ji Ziyue and Yao Xi. Even if they heard, so what? As long as he had absolute power, he could suppress all who refused to submit. And he faintly sensed that opportunity was coming; this opportunity lay on Ye Fan. After successfully refining it, he would possess absolute power, and at this point in time, no one could do anything to him.

The several people sat down and began to speak of their past experiences.

"Near the Qing Emperor's Tomb, Jiang Xuan, after you killed everyone from Yaoguang and the Ji Family, Pang Bo and I did not leave immediately. We returned to the Qing Emperor's Tomb, but we did not approach; we only watched from a distance in the surroundings. At that time, more great figures descended and joined forces to completely open the Demon Emperor's Tomb. Many spiritual treasures flew out, and Pang Bo and I obtained several, but midway we encountered a shameless fat Taoist who robbed us of all our spiritual treasures."

Jiang Xuan's eyes flickered, and he guessed at the identity of that fat Taoist. If he remembered correctly, the man seemed to possess half an Emperor Weapon on him. Robbing his beloved kin and planting karma—it was only fitting that this Swallowing Heaven Demon Jar Lid should belong to him.

"That dead fat man, extremely greedy for wealth, swept clean all the spiritual magic treasures on me and Ye Zi. Truly infuriating. I and Ye Zi couldn't beat him in a fight, so we could only surrender and give him all our treasures." Speaking of the fat Taoist, Pang Bo gritted his teeth in hatred.

Jiang Xuan smiled faintly, not surprised at all.

"However, there is one treasure that dead fat man misjudged." Ye Fan reached out, and a piece of green copper shot out from his Life Wheel Sea, floating in midair.

This piece of green copper was only palm-sized, but it emitted a mysterious ancient aroma, very much like a fragment broken off from some vessel. Upon close inspection, it exuded an indescribable rhyme flavor, giving a feeling of endless antiquity and vicissitudes.

Reaching out, the green copper fell into his palm. Jiang Xuan stared at the green copper with his Yin Yang Dual Pupils and discovered that deeper within, the dense Dao patterns were as if expounding the Great Dao Truth—profound mystery upon profound mystery.

"This green copper is not ordinary; it is a heavy treasure and will be of great use to you."

The green copper returned to Ye Fan's Life Wheel Sea, and Ye Fan continued:

"Later, the Demon Emperor's Sacred Soldier appeared, and everyone went mad, all wanting to seize the Demon Emperor's Sacred Soldier. But in the end, it was seized by the Demon Emperor's successor, Yan Ruyu. It turned out she had made preparations early, holding a Gathering Treasure Basin. The Demon Emperor's Sacred Soldier rushed straight at her, and the great figures of the Holy Land ended up drawing water with a bamboo basket—all for nothing." Saying this, Ye Fan felt a bit of schadenfreude. These two great holy land clans harbored ulterior motives toward Jiang Xuan, and he wished nothing more than for Yaoguang and the Ji Family to suffer embarrassment.

"After that, Yaoguang Holy Land and the Ji Family blockaded that region. Fortunately, Pang Bo and I sensed things were amiss and left in advance. But afterward we encountered that detestable shameless Taoist again. After a pursuit, we accidentally entered the Yao Clan Space." At this point Ye Fan revealed a smile. The Yao Clan Space was opened by an ancient saint, hidden within the Void. They had obtained no small opportunity on this trip.

"Those Yao Clan successors did not take our lives, but they had the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart reside in Ye Zi's Life Spring to nurture it. Who knows if this is some demon method? Perhaps it absorbs Ye Zi's life force to feed the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart. Naturally we were unwilling, but when under the eaves, one must bow one's head. The myriad demons watched covetously; not doing so meant death. We truly had no other choice. Ye could only comply. Hehe, but we also obtained quite a few benefits." Pang Bo hehehed. At the same time, five drops of Monster Drop Essence Blood appeared in Ye Fan's palm.

Crystal clear and dazzling, like glazed blood jade, the most precious of time, shining brilliantly, red glow swirling. Each drop of essence blood diffused incomparably vigorous life essence qi.

"But they didn't expect the extraordinary nature of this green copper piece of mine. I used the green copper to strike the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart and forcibly squeezed out over ten drops of Monster Drop Essence Blood. After Pang Bo and I absorbed it, our fleshly body strength surged, far exceeding the strength this Life Wheel Sea Realm should possess. These few drops of essence blood, we leave for you, Jiang Xuan. They will surely greatly increase your fleshly body strength." Ye Fan smiled, his expression full of relief and also some lingering fear. Without the green copper piece, he feared he would have been sucked dry on the spot by the Demon Emperor's Sacred Heart.
