Chapter 1622 - Giving up any idea of escaping
The scene was shaken once more. Jiang Chen’s power had brought the shock of everyone to a new height. The fact that he could force a late Immortal Emperor back was really very shocking. A moment ago, he had crushed the corpse puppet of Cao Jiu with a single strike. How insane!
One should know that the corpse puppet of Cao Jiu was no ordinary corpse puppet. The corpse puppet possessed the strength of a late Immortal Emperor. Even without the help of Cao Jiu, it was powerful enough in the battle. Who would’ve thought that such a powerful corpse puppet was crushed by a single blow of Jiang Chen? Such a scene was too startling.
“How did that happen?”
“How did Jiang Chen become so powerful?”
“It’s because of the flames he possesses. His flames are extremely powerful. I have once heard the Seventh Prince said that he lost to Jiang Chen in alchemy back in Great Qian Empire because of the overpowering flames of Jiang Chen. I’m certain that his flames have a tremendous restraint on Cao Jiu, just like how Tyrant had restrained Niu Meng. Under such restraint, Cao Jiu could not exert all of his combat strength in the battle, which makes him no match for Jiang Chen.”
Ling Du and Leng Qiuyi couldn’t believe everything that was happening ahead of them. Yun Yi suddenly thought the key of the matter. When Yun Zhangxiao went to Great Qian Empire to challenge their geniuses in alchemy, he lost to Jiang Chen, or it should be said that he lost to Jiang Chen’s flames.
He saw the battle between Jiang Chen and Cao Jiu very clearly. Jiang Chen’s flames were the flame of extreme Yang, the combination of three types of supreme flames. Such a flame was precisely the bane of the people of Corpse Yin Sect. This kind of restraint was much greater than Tyrant’s. That was why Cao Jiu’s newly released corpse puppet was killed instantly.
Whatever the reason, it seemed unrealistic for Cao Jiu to kill Jiang Chen. The growth of Jiang Chen had transcended their imagination. Given Jiang Chen’s current combat strength, not even Cao Jiu was his match, let alone the others. Such a situation gave them extreme discomfort. They had missed the golden opportunity to kill Jiang Chen. If they couldn’t kill Jiang Chen today, no one could tell to what extent Jiang Chen would grow to in their next encounter. They were afraid that it would be their end at that time.
The blood demon became frenzied. Boundless blood qi was unleashed from his body, forming a giant net of energy that sealed the entire battlefield. This was an absolute restraint. None of them could escape from this. The five of them seemed to have been trapped in the mire. They struggled as hard as they could, but to no avail.
Every bit of these was clearly seen by Cao Jiu. There was an unconcealed look of shock on his face.
“Cao Jiu, neither of you will leave today. All of you will have to die here.”
Jiang Chen’s eyes were like the scorching sun. His killing intent seemed to have condensed into a solid form as he clamoured at Cao Jiu.
