I Collect Skill Fragments in the Demon World-Chapter 705 - 365: The Second Heaven of the Spiritual World
Looking at Chen Xu, who was anxious, Zhang Chen could see that Chen Xu was truly scared.
"Don’t be afraid, rest assured, I know the foundation of the rise of Prince Pingbian’s Mansion, and I know why its luck suddenly skyrocketed. Everything about Prince Pingbian’s Mansion is within my grasp. I’ll show you how I will cut off Prince Pingbian’s Mansion’s luck and demonstrate my skills to you. If Prince Pingbian’s Mansion wishes to rise, they have to ask me if I agree!" Zhang Chen’s voice was domineering and confident: "The stronger the opponent, the more interesting the game. Don’t be afraid; everything is under control! You just follow my orders, and in this game, half of the Great Creation will be yours."
Upon hearing Zhang Chen’s words, Chen Xu looked at him with skepticism. It wasn’t that he didn’t believe Zhang Chen, but compared to Prince Pingbian’s Mansion, Zhang Chen’s power was like trying to smash rocks with eggs, the gap was too vast, and there was no hope in sight for Zhang Chen’s victory.
He already had a good understanding of Zhang Chen’s background, and he even knew Zhang Chen’s life trajectory as if it were a palm reading, so the more he understood Zhang Chen, the less he could see any hope for victory.
The one thing he hadn’t figured out was how Zhang Chen had acquired those incredible means. This was the biggest mystery, and no matter how he analyzed Zhang Chen’s growth trajectory, he couldn’t deduce how Zhang Chen obtained such skills.
Nonetheless, since Zhang Chen had promised, he couldn’t deny him. He decided to deal with it first and stay hidden to observe how the situation evolved. If Zhang Chen gained the upper hand, he would lend Zhang Chen a hand; if Zhang Chen was overwhelmed by Prince Pingbian’s Mansion, he would withdraw and seize the chance to escape.
He had acquired many means, and was confident that if he hid in the dark and wanted to escape, Prince Pingbian’s Mansion would not find it easy to capture him.
Seeing Zhang Chen’s confident assurance, Chen Xu could only nod in agreement and considered himself to have accepted Zhang Chen’s words: "But let me say the ugly words first, if you can’t withstand Prince Pingbian’s Mansion and get overwhelmed, don’t blame me for escaping."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chen smiled. He didn’t dislike people who said all the ugly words in advance, since it was better than being silent and fleeing at the critical moment.
"If you see things aren’t going well, just escape directly; I won’t blame you," Zhang Chen patted Chen Xu’s shoulder. "Now I have a task for you, discreetly handle it, and once it’s done, even if you escape directly, I won’t hold it against you."
"What task?" Chen Xu felt relieved upon hearing Zhang Chen, fearing Zhang Chen’s mysterious confidence and the thought of sending himself to death, dragging him down to hell too.
"Just spread the word to the Northern Land’s heroes that Prince Pingbian Mansion’s old ancestor, Zhang Shicheng, wishes to transform into a Divine Dragon," Zhang Chen said.
Chen Xu’s face turned pale with shock, feeling a cold shiver rushing from his feet to his head: "Are you serious? Is this your rumor, or is there really such an event?"
Zhang Chen pointed in the direction of Prince Pingbian’s ancestral vein: "Zhang Shicheng’s soul is hiding within the ancestral vein, gathering Northern Land’s incense faith, preparing to transform into a Divine Dragon."
Chen Xu’s expression was horrified: "No wonder Prince Pingbian’s Mansion has such luck; once Zhang Shicheng transforms into a dragon, he’ll be at least a tenth rank existence, right? No wonder smoke is rising from his ancestral grave."
Then Chen Xu turned to Zhang Chen: "We better run! Once Zhang Shicheng transforms into a dragon, we’ll be done for!" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Zhang Chen glanced at Chen Xu and sneered: "You have no ambition. Haven’t you ever thought of dragon slaying? Once we slay the Divine Dragon and gain its Essence, Qi, and Spirit and multiple creations, wouldn’t you and I really profit massively? Our strength will reach unimaginable heights."
Chen Xu looked at Zhang Chen with a resentful face: "Brother, do you think with just the two of us, we can slay a Divine Dragon?"
"With just the two of us, there is certainly no way to slay a Divine Dragon. But if we leak the information, there will be many interested forces worldwide. For Walking Flood Dragon to transform into a dragon, it must go through tribulations, and that will be our chance to act." Zhang Chen smiled: "You just go handle it, and you’ll surely gain benefits."
Chen Xu sighed deeply; now that he’s aboard Zhang Chen’s pirate ship, he had no choice but to comply.
Watching Chen Xu’s departing back, Zhang Chen couldn’t help but shake his head quietly and turned to enter the room. Spreading the news about Zhang Shicheng’s Walking Flood Dragon transformation wasn’t just for dragon-slaying, but also to divert Prince Pingbian’s Mansion’s attention, giving himself a greater opportunity to seize the Ascension Pool.
Many in the world desire to seize the dragon’s creation. Not only are the various families involved, but even the court will not remain idle.
"I wonder if the Inner Court Grand Steward has recovered from his injuries," Zhang Chen thought to himself.
Zhang Chen returned to his room, having been awake all night, intending to take a short nap. But he thought of his long-neglected Visualization Technique training; now that the First Heaven of his Spiritual World was destroyed, he should explore the Second Heaven.
Also, to see how the Princess was doing in the Second Heaven and whether she had found any creation left for him.
Since discovering that old folks like the Innate Mosquito can interfere with his Mental Realm, Zhang Chen hadn’t meditated for a long time, and his cultivation of the mental realm had nearly fallen behind.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen sat cross-legged in front of the furnace, formed a Seal Technique with his hand, and initiated the Visualization Technique’s Second Heaven, plunging into the boundless dark void.
