Chapter 2328: Chapter 2332: Coercion
"Hey, Martial Soul bro, what are you doing?"
In Jiang Chen’s Sea of Consciousness, the Divine Infant looked at the concentrated bloody liquid, the size of a thumb, above his head, and exclaimed in shock.
However, there was no response from the depths of the Sea of Consciousness.
The pure Dragon Qi suddenly transformed into an illusionary Divine Dragon, glanced at Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant, and instantly rushed into the bloody liquid above its head.
At this moment, both the Town Soul Stele and the Essence Blood of the Shadowless Sword Emperor moved to the edges of the Sea of Consciousness, leaving only the Saint Dragon Sword hovering around Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant.
Buzz!
A wave surged again from the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant’s face changed, and he immediately felt a tearing sensation coming on.
Furrowing his brows tightly, Jiang Chen did not resist at all, allowing the True Dragon Martial Spirit to extract an Origin Primordial Spirit from his Divine Infant.
Swoosh!
The extracted Origin Primordial Spirit, under the control of the True Dragon Martial Spirit, also merged into the bloody liquid above the Divine Infant’s head.
Rustle!
A dazzling bloody radiance erupted from the bloody liquid, and Jiang Chen’s entire Sea of Consciousness turned into a strange bloody hue.
Hmm?
The Divine Infant was slightly stunned and suddenly realized that it seemed to have formed a faint connection with the bloody liquid.
With a thought, all the bloody radiance in the Sea of Consciousness was gathered into the bloody droplet.
Buzz!
Immediately after, the Town Soul Stele, which had moved to the edge of the Sea of Consciousness, suddenly trembled uncontrollably and flew towards the bloody droplet, slowly merging into it and becoming part of it under Jiang Chen’s Divine Infant’s astonished gaze.
This...
The Divine Infant slightly furrowed its brows, carefully sensing the bloody droplet. Through the faint connection, Jiang Chen felt a powerful yet eerie force gradually forming within the bloody droplet.
The fusion of Blood Fiend Force and the Great Dao’s suppression?
The Divine Infant’s eyes showed a sudden realization, turning to glance at the depths of the Sea of Consciousness, and softly said, "Thanks, Martial Soul bro!"
Looking at the bloody droplet above once more, Jiang Chen knew that he had gained another trump card. Although it was transformed from the Town Soul Stele, it was much stronger than the Town Soul Stele!
With a slight smile, the Divine Infant slowly closed its eyes, and its consciousness returned to its physical body.
"Hmm?"
Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes and saw everyone staring at him, and a few of them had unfriendly expressions.
Slightly frowning, Jiang Chen stood up and looked at Hu Yiqiu and the others, puzzled, "Master, teachers, why are you all here?"
"We’ll talk about that later. Tell me, can you control that Blood Fiend Force in your body now? Will it still go out of control?"
Hu Yiqiu waved his hand, looking at Jiang Chen with nervousness, a hint of worry in his eyes.
If the Blood Fiend Force could be controlled by the cultivator, it would enhance the cultivator’s combat power, but if not, it could corrode the cultivator’s heart, turning them into nothing but a killing machine!
"Blood Fiend Force?"
Jiang Chen was slightly startled, catching a glimpse of worry and a hint of fear in the eyes of Yun Tao and the others, he suddenly understood.
"Senior Brother, Wu Hen, Zhi Rou, sorry for scaring you!"
Jiang Chen apologetically smiled at the three and then looked at Hu Yiqiu and the others, "Master, teachers, don’t worry, I’ve already controlled the Blood Fiend Force."
"That’s good!"
Hu Yiqiu and the others sighed in relief.
"Good? During the examination, you actually dared to attack the participants. How bold of you!"
Elder Meng, seeing that Su Ruoyun seemed not to speak, immediately seized the opportunity to confront.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Chen turned to Elder Meng and, glimpsing Chen Liang beside him, immediately had a suspicion.
"I am an elder of Qing Hai Academy."
Elder Meng spoke proudly.
"Since you are not an inspector elder sent by the academy, what qualifies you to question me?"
Jiang Chen replied indifferently, turning to Chen Liang, "Hand over the Demon Core!"
Meeting Jiang Chen’s gaze, Chen Liang involuntarily shivered, reflexively taking two steps back, hiding behind Elder Meng.
"You brat, you dare demand the Demon Core? How audacious!"
Elder Meng was furious, glaring coldly at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen ignored him, turning to Su Qingluan and Lu Zhichen, "Elder Su, Elder Lu, has the entrance examination ended? Why is an elder interfering in the examination?"
Su Qingluan and Lu Zhichen paused, exchanged a glance, and both looked towards Su Ruoyun.
Jiang Chen’s eyes showed a hint of confusion, turning to glance at Su Ruoyun, lightly furrowing his brows.
"Jiang Chen, why did you attack them?"
Su Ruoyun stared directly at Jiang Chen, speaking faintly.
"This is the chief academy’s Holy Elder!"
Hu Yiqiu whispered a reminder.
Holy Elder? Saint!?
Jiang Chen was shocked, hurriedly cupping his fists and bowing to Su Ruoyun, "I’ve seen the Holy Elder."
Su Ruoyun waved her hand, indicating him to answer the question.
Glancing at Chen Liang and the others, Jiang Chen said softly, "Holy Elder, you should know my strength, and you should also sense the strength of them six. In such an overwhelmingly uneven battle, is it wrong for me to go all out?"
Su Ruoyun was slightly taken aback, a smile appearing in her eyes.
If Jiang Chen couldn’t give her a persuasive reason, even with Shi Yan’s transmission, she couldn’t side too much. But now Jiang Chen’s reason was impeccable enough to shut Elder Meng and the others up.
Hu Yiqiu and the others breathed a sigh of relief, the corners of their mouths slightly curving up. They knew in their hearts that once Jiang Chen gave this reason, the matter couldn’t be pursued further unless Elder Meng and the others were shameless.
Hearing Jiang Chen’s answer, Elder Meng and the others’ expressions changed, instantly turning livid.
Just like Su Ruoyun and Hu Yiqiu expected, they couldn’t find any refutation against Jiang Chen’s reason. You can’t expect someone to hold back when fighting outnumbered and outmatched, right?
"Holy Elder, may I ask if the examination rules prohibit elders from interfering in the examination?"
Jiang Chen once again cupped his fists towards Su Ruoyun.
"Yes!"
Su Ruoyun nodded slightly.
"Hand over the Demon Core!"
Jiang Chen’s expression changed instantly, ignoring Elder Meng in front of Chen Liang, coldly staring at Chen Liang and shouting.
"You brat, you..."
Elder Meng’s face changed, speaking harshly.
"Elder, please do not disrupt the examination!"
Jiang Chen gave Elder Meng a cold glance, extending his hand, another valuable longsword appearing in his grasp, "Senior Chen Liang, if you don’t hand over the Demon Core, then let’s have another fight!"
"You..."
Elder Meng’s eyes blazed with fury.
Chen Liang, at this point, lost his nerve, utterly frightened by Jiang Chen, was in no shape to fight him.
Jiang Chen was slapping Qing Hai Academy in the face in front of him.
The sound was crisp and clear, indeed!
