Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2037: Chapter 2040: Blackmail

Bang bang bang!

Yun Tao and the others were all blasted away by the sudden explosion of pressure, and the Town Soul Stele directly transformed into a strand of mysterious light that drilled into Jiang Chen’s forehead.

The sudden change startled Jiang Chen, feeling a faint ripple emanating from the Town Soul Stele, his expression turned to one of astonishment.

That ripple seemed to be an emotion... a feeling of grievance!?

”This...”

Yun Tao scrambled up from the ground, staring dumbly at Jiang Chen.

”What’s going on?”

Jiang Chen was a bit confused; the Town Soul Stele had emotional fluctuations? What the heck?!

This expression fell into the eyes of Yun Tao and the others, making them understand that Jiang Chen didn’t expect such a thing to happen either.

”It seems the rumors are true, a sentient spiritual treasure, once it chooses a master, won’t change unless the master dies. Only then will it search for a new master, and they must also meet its criteria to recognize a master!”

Pang Guang spoke softly, then turned to glance at Wu Zhen: ”Young Master Wu should know this, the Wu Family also has sentient spiritual treasures!”

Wu Zhen’s face changed slightly but didn’t respond.

Yun Tao instantly grasped the situation, coldly staring at Wu Zhen: ”Thinking of being cunning even at this time, it seems you’ve been too comfortable!”

Swish!

A sword light flared, making Wu Zhen’s expression change. Just as he was about to dodge, his neck was suddenly grabbed.

Shhh!

A ripping sound echoed, and Yun Tao slashed down Wu Zhen’s left arm with a single sword.

”Ah!”

Wu Zhen screamed in pain, his face instantly turning pale, glaring viciously at Yun Tao, then turning to fix his gaze on the Divine Infant Realm Peak expert from Wuyou Island who was choking him.

”According to what I mean, I would directly kill you!”

The Wuyou Island cultivator spoke viciously.

Wu Zhen’s body trembled, hurriedly lowered his head, a look of resentment flashing in his eyes.

Jiang Chen looked at Wu Zhen indifferently, put away the Town Soul Stele, and said softly: ”Let’s go, you’ll have to rely on yourselves now.”

Yun Tao and the others nodded, dragging Wu Zhen into the passage.

In the same spot, Yun Tao and the others disappeared without a trace.

Jiang Chen’s eyes turned, stepping back into the place where everyone disappeared, but he no longer saw the mist.

”Once passed, one won’t fall in again? Shadowless Sword Emperor set this tomb more like a simple assessment formation.”

Mumbling softly, Jiang Chen stepped forward.

The passage wasn’t long, and after a hundred meters from the stone chamber, a stone door appeared in front of him.

After observing the stone door, Jiang Chen’s heart tightened; beyond the stone door, he sensed a deadly danger!

Carefully sensing, Jiang Chen didn’t feel any formation fluctuations from this side of the stone door. His eyes turned as divine soul aura emanated from him, and a wave of soul force probed toward the stone door.

Buzz!

When the soul force touched the stone door, it slightly trembled, a vast pressure of the Great Dao appeared, blocking Jiang Chen’s soul force outside the stone door.

”Is this... the Wuying Sword Path? Dao protection?”

Jiang Chen murmured to himself.

Unable to explore, Jiang Chen didn’t want to explore the tomb alone, so he sat cross-legged in front of the stone door, facing the passage, waiting for everyone to come out of the illusion array.

...

Swish!

After a while, a figure appeared in the passage.

Jiang Chen focused and saw that the person was the Divine Infant Realm Peak expert from the Wu family.

After the Wu Clan cultivator appeared, he glanced around, his gaze fixed on Jiang Chen in front of the stone door, and his eyes flashed a peculiar look.

”Young Master Jiang, outside in the grand array, you triggered the black mist merged with the Phantom Sword Intent. I’m not sure if here, you can sense the aura of the Wuying Sword Path?”

The Wu Clan cultivator stepped forward to Jiang Chen, his eyes staring intently.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, gave the Wu Clan cultivator an indifferent glance, and with a thought, lightly nodded: ”I have some faint sensing. Senior, are you looking to comprehend the Wuying Sword Path? The aura of the Wuying Sword Path here seems to be full of hostility, it might be quite difficult to borrow it for enlightenment!”

”Oh?”

A sliver of dread appeared in the Wu Clan cultivator’s eyes: ”Looks like, one can’t unleash Great Dao attacks here either!”

Jiang Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth curling into a faintly discernible sneer.

Trying to use my keen sense of the Golden Path to determine if one can unleash Great Dao attacks?

Thinking about what happened in the stone chamber, a trace of guilt flashed in Jiang Chen’s eyes.

I’m only trying to protect myself, who would’ve thought... everyone can blame that Zheng Ping!

”Young Master Jiang, would you be willing to lend me the Town Soul Stele for a look?” The Wu Clan cultivator spoke again.

Jiang Chen paused, his eyes flickering with cold light, and pretended not to understand: ”Doesn’t Senior know? For spiritual treasures to choose a master, it must meet the requirements of the spiritual treasure. Once recognized, it cannot be changed. What does Senior mean by this?”

”Just wanted to observe it a bit, that’s all!”

The Wu Clan cultivator smiled: ”The Town Soul Stele is one of the two famous spiritual treasures of the Shadowless Sword Emperor, I’ve long admired it. Would Young Master Jiang be willing to fulfill my wish?”

”Senior, sorry, the spiritual treasure just chose a master, I need to nurture it with my divine soul to gain control. It’s inconvenient to lend it to Senior for now!”

Jiang Chen’s eyes turned, lightly shook his head.

”Young Master Jiang, it’s just a look at the spiritual treasure, no need to be so stingy, right?” The Wu Clan cultivator’s eyes flashed coldly, stepping closer to Jiang Chen.

Swish!

A sword light appeared, stopping the Wu Clan cultivator in his tracks. A shallow sword mark appeared on the ground in front of him.

Jiang Chen held a spiritual longsword in his hand, stood up, and coldly looked at the Wu Clan cultivator: ”Senior, you’ve crossed the line!”

”A small Semi Divine Infant Realm cultivator wants to fight me? Hmph! Jiang Chen, don’t think that just because of Wine-crazed’s threat, I don’t dare to kill you!”

The Wu Clan cultivator’s eyes flashed with coldness: ”As long as your death is blamed on the killing array in the tomb, does Wine-crazed really dare to kill everyone who came in for you? That would offend all the forces outside, if he does that, he too will die under siege! Being smart, hand over the Town Soul Stele obediently for me to see!”

Jiang Chen said nothing, calmly looking at the Wu Clan cultivator in front of him, a hint of doubt in his heart.

Why does this person want the Town Soul Stele so badly?

He can’t master it anyway!

Could it be... there’s something in the Stele that I haven’t noticed?

Buzz!

A powerful aura erupted from the Wu Clan cultivator, not daring to use Great Dao attacks doesn’t mean he can’t launch attacks.

After entering the Divine Infant Realm, a cultivator’s primary means of cultivation techniques is Great Dao attacks, but they must also cultivate spiritual power, which is the foundation of their realm of strength.

Therefore, the higher the realm, the more profound the spiritual power, and unleashing spiritual power attacks becomes more formidable.

It’s just that because Great Dao attacks are much stronger than spiritual power attacks, generally after reaching the Divine Infant Realm, few people focus on practicing spiritual power attacks!

But when Great Dao attacks are unavailable, spiritual power becomes the strongest means.
