Chapter 1380 - 1008: Massacre

Zhang Chen not only harbored murderous intent toward the Wang Family in Jinling City but also toward the demon beasts within the city.

If it hadn’t been for his encounter with himself today, wouldn’t his son have perished?

When had Zhang Chen ever suffered a loss?

He couldn’t stand any loss whatsoever!

Looking at the young man’s face, full of vegetable colors, Zhang Chen’s eyes revealed a hint of coldness: "Do you want revenge?"

The young man stared at Zhang Chen for a long while before lowering his head and saying, "Forget it, they are not to be trifled with. It’s already good that I’m alive; I can’t cause you trouble."

"You are quite sensible." Zhang Chen looked at the dim-eyed young man, reaching out to stroke his head: "Don’t worry, watch how your godfather takes revenge for you. Just a few beasts and human traitors, they’re nothing in godfather’s eyes."

Zhang Chen thought of unleashing a Purple Cloud Divine Thunder, reducing Jinling City to ruins and killing all the demon beasts within. However, after some consideration, letting them die directly would be too easy and wouldn’t bring the satisfaction of great vengeance. Instead, he should wear them down slowly, letting them die in despair, to truly experience the pleasure of vengeance.

As for how to make them die?

Zhang Chen had already made up his mind, his gaze shifting to his Golden Finger Interface, focusing on the skills of Blood Dao:

[Skill 3 (Twelfth Tier): Blood Realm (0/2000000000000000000)]

[Note 1: The host can transform into a Blood River, absorbing all the blood within a thousand-mile radius, drawing wandering souls from a hundred miles into the Blood River, allowing worldly blood and souls to enter the Sea of Blood more quickly.]

[Note 2: The number of Blood God Children increases with level, currently ten Blood God Children.] Blood Control, Blood Sucking in the Air, Limb Regeneration, Ultrasonic Positioning, Body Transformation Blood Light (ten), Blood Poison Filth, Blood Control, Blood Influence (within kilometers), Body Transformation Blood River, mastering the Law of Sound Waves (within thousand miles) Blood Sea Asura (not exceeding own level).

[Note 1: You have acquired the skill Harmonization]

[Note 2: You have acquired the skill Blood Dao Offspring]

[Note 3: You have acquired the skill Blood Realm]

The experience needed for the Blood Dao skill to break through to the twelfth tier is immense, but to Zhang Chen, it’s nothing. The Peach of Immortality blooms every three thousand years, bears fruit every three thousand years, and matures every three thousand years. In just nine thousand years, a tree can bear Peaches of Immortality. Zhang Chen can accelerate its growth by a hundred and eighty years each day; ten days mean eighteen hundred years, a hundred days, eighteen thousand years, enough for the peaches to mature twice in three months.

Since planting the Peach Tree in the inner world, countless eons have passed. The three peach trees have evolved into a three-thousand-mile peach blossom forest. There are three thousand Peach Trees of three thousand years, six thousand years, and nine thousand years within, bearing countless harvests. Zhang Chen has accumulated multiple layers of foundation. Although the points required for Blood Dao are many, they are insignificant to Zhang Chen at this moment.

The breakthrough of Blood Dao from the twelfth tier to the Fruit Position realm would speed up the outflow of Origin Qi within Zhang Chen. He has long ceased to care; he’s already like a leaky tank, with Essence Qi leaking out every moment. Would he care about the size of the hole within him?

Moreover, he now possesses the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu. Given the current state of Heaven and Earth, he believes replenishing with his innate Innate Qi is not a difficult task.

Originally, Zhang Chen intended to enhance the skill of Time Acceleration, but given the current circumstances, time acceleration is not so urgent for him. It’s better to upgrade the Blood Dao skill and then level Jinling City.

Do you think Zhang Chen is exterminating Jinling City solely for avenging the Prince?

That’s not entirely true. In the future, with the great upheaval of Heaven and Earth, the Northern Land will be surrounded by the Demon Race and Yellow Heaven Dao, undoubtedly becoming the target of covetous gazes from all forces. For the Northern Land to survive the most turbulent period stably, Zhang Chen must demonstrate thunderous means, suppressing all directions with a strong hand, so the world knows his might and dares not offend.

And when it comes to the means of slaughter, especially large-scale slaughter, Blood Dao Divine Techniques are paramount.

As Zhang Chen’s thoughts stirred, he gently touched the Golden Finger Interface, and in the next moment, it leaped to life, upgrading, and his Blood Dao skill broke through to the Law Level, reaching the realm of Celestial Immortal.

[New Trait 1: Blood God Children break the shackles, infinite in number]

[New Trait 2: Asura Descending]

Feature one need not be elaborated further; upon reaching this stage of cultivation, the number of Blood God Children is unrestrained, without any limits. Zhang Chen is like an endless sea of blood, possessing immortality and indestructibility. Each drop of blood in the sea of blood constitutes his Blood God Child.

As for feature two, not only can Asuras be born in the sea of blood, but they can also be summoned to manifest in the world.

The Blood Sea Asura’s physical body is immortal and indestructible; unless it is completely obliterated, the Asura remains undying, making it the most troublesome enemy in the world.

As his skills upgraded, Zhang Chen’s experience points were cleared once more. At this moment, the power of Blood Dao within Zhang Chen surged, and an immense and vast power arose. Yet, at this time, the Origin Qi pouring out from within Zhang Chen’s body was more than ten times faster.

"In less than three years, my cultivation will be exhausted. However, if I can destroy Jinling City, I will command awe across the world, securing complete tranquility for the Northern Land until the great calamity is fully over. No one will dare to offend me, nor invade the Northern Land, thus securing a much-needed breathing space for it." Zhang Chen took a deep breath, feeling the Immortal Dao Origin seeping from around him, a trace of regret flickering in his eyes. He then took the young man’s hand and walked out of the cabin: "Come with me."

The two of them reached outside the cabin, observing the slaves and demon beasts coming and going. Zhang Chen waved to the steward, who quickly approached with a flattering smile and bowed respectfully: "Sir, what are your orders?"

"Let me ask, how much longer until the ship’s supplies are fully replenished?" Zhang Chen asked leisurely.

The steward’s eyes lingered on Zhang Chen, somehow feeling that Zhang Chen seemed different from before, a faint pressure and fear emerged in his heart, much like encountering his nemesis before attaining sentience as a demon.

Not daring to think further, the steward quickly bowed respectfully: "Reporting to Sir, it will take another three days."

"Three days? That’s too long. I’m giving you only one day!" Zhang Chen’s words left no room for doubt.

Upon hearing Zhang Chen’s words, the demon race steward hesitated briefly before responding: "Then one day it shall be! It’s no difficult task, just a matter of deploying more manpower. I assure you it will be accomplished beautifully."

The steward scurried off to the lower deck to gather more hands. Zhang Chen, leading the young man to the deck, gazed at the surging river, the crowd bustling on the shore. He pondered how to act to maximize deterrence while quietly sensing and adapting to the power of the Blood Sea Dao.

The young man beside Zhang Chen, observing the numb slaves on the shore being driven and whipped by demon beasts like cattle, expressed a hint of sentiment. In just a few hours, his life had transformed into a stark contrast of heaven and earth, as if he had become a different person.

"Father, thank you for saving me from this sea of suffering." The young man felt a stir in his heart and expressed his gratitude.

Zhang Chen patted the young man’s head: "You’ve called me father, so there’s no need for formalities."

At this, Zhang Chen instructed a guard nearby: "Bring the body of that man."

The guard followed the order, and soon, the man who had been beaten to death by demon beasts was brought before Zhang Chen.

Wang Ye looked at the mangled corpse, unable to suppress his trembling body, his eyes brimmed with tears. He wanted to call out, but having acknowledged a new ’father’, he feared dissatisfaction if he called another father. So, he merely rushed forward and silently wept at the mangled corpse.

"Stop crying, it’s just death, nothing significant. Watch my method." Zhang Chen stepped to the man’s front and signaled the young man to step aside. In the next moment, the tip of his finger shimmered with the Three Lights Divine Water, which dripped into the man’s body. Astonishingly, the man’s injuries began to heal at a pace visible to the naked eye. Within just three breaths, the entire body was completely restored, and the previously dead man’s chest gently rose and fell. Accompanied by the increasingly loud heartbeat, his breathing rhythm was reinstated.

"This? Resurrection?" The young man was stunned at the sight and then suddenly dashed forward, embracing the man’s chest, unable to suppress his emotions any longer, and shouted: Father!

For him, the middle-aged man was the only warmth on the path of abduction and the first to show him kindness amidst calamity, making him immensely significant.

Listening to his son call another ’father’, Zhang Chen felt a bit disheartened and turned to re-enter the cabin.

Zhang Chen’s display of reviving someone from death had startled everyone on the deck. They had distinctly witnessed the middle-aged man being beaten to death, only to see him resuscitated with renewed heartbeats?

Thus, everyone crowded around, faces filled with shock as they watched.

"Really resurrected? Does he indeed possess such a technique?" Zhou Qiucheng stepped closer, staring in disbelief at the man whose breathing had returned.

"I’ve lived for decades, and today truly opened my eyes. Never did I imagine that resurrection, something only heard of in legends, actually exists. In the past, it was merely hearsay, never had anyone achieved resurrection in reality." Zhong Wubai yanked out a strand of his beard in disbelief.
