Divine War Pill Emperor

Standing outside, Lin Ying was so angry he wanted to start cursing.

Clearly, Jiang Chen and Murong Xiangming had obtained the treasure he was after from inside the coffin.

And his Cultivation had even broken through.

On top of that, he couldn’t even get close to the coffin now.

The moment he touched the coffin, he was instantly thrown back.

He tried sending the Golden-haired Zombie King to approach the coffin, but it was sent flying as well.

So now, all he could do was watch helplessly as the coffin sat right before his eyes. Not only could he not get the treasure, but he was also forced to watch someone else achieve one breakthrough after another.

’Martial King... That brat broke through to Martial King.’

Just as he was fuming in exasperation.

HUMMM...

The entire coffin shuddered once more.

The next moment, an even more powerful aura emanated from within the coffin.

’Martial King First Heaven...’

He swallowed hard. The person inside had already achieved several breakthroughs in a row, and now the aura of a Martial King First Heaven had appeared.

Lin Ying felt utterly crushed.

’Damn it! That treasure was supposed to be mine.’

His eyes turned red with fury, making him look like a madman.

Hundreds of densely packed zombies had already gathered around him.

Lin Ying had summoned every zombie in the area.

To do his bidding.

’You bastard. I’ll just wait out here. The moment you leave that coffin, I’ll snatch the treasure.’

How could he possibly accept this? He stood guard outside, having the zombies surround the coffin.

Meanwhile, Murong Xiangming’s mouth hung slightly open, clearly stunned by Jiang Chen’s outrageously fast breakthroughs.

This method of breaking through was truly enviable.

’It looks like he might still be able to push for another Realm.’

Murong Xiangming observed Jiang Chen closely, certain that his Cultivation wouldn’t stop at just Martial King First Heaven.

HUMMM!

No sooner had the thought crossed her mind than Jiang Chen’s body shuddered.

His Cultivation broke through once more.

Just as she predicted, he reached Martial King Second Layer Heaven.

But that wasn’t the end of it.

Jiang Chen could feel that he hadn’t yet fully consumed the power within the drop of blood.

It surged once again, assaulting his Cultivation.

HUMMM...

One last time, Jiang Chen’s body trembled.

His Cultivation decisively broke through to Martial King Third Heaven.

This breakthrough, it could be said, was unlike any he had ever experienced.

With that, the drop of blood was finally and utterly consumed.

His jaw dropped.

A single drop of blood had allowed his Cultivation to break through one level after another. This drop of blood was clearly extraordinary.

And he realized this drop of blood was his own.

’This... Could this be a drop of blood that was sent flying when that bizarre Pill Furnace blew me to smithereens a thousand years ago?’

’There’s no other explanation.’

Jiang Chen recalled being killed by the Pill Furnace a thousand years ago. He had lost consciousness instantly.

Then, a thousand years later, his soul was reborn in this body’s original owner.

Now, his soul had gradually transformed this body into his own. There wasn’t much left of the original owner.

In truth, the Jiang Chen of today was already the Jiang Chen of a thousand years ago.

In both soul and body.

Especially now, after that drop of blood had remolded his body, he had well and truly become the Divine Emperor Jiang Chen of a thousand years ago.

So, this drop of blood was clearly the one that had fallen after his death a thousand years ago.

And the so-called ancestor of the Lin Family was, in reality, nothing more than a drop of Jiang Chen’s blood.

A thousand years ago, that drop of blood had transformed and taken on the identity of the Lin Family’s ancestor.

This made Jiang Chen realize that the thing in this tomb that had been drawing him in all along was this very drop of his own blood.

Everything was clear now. The ancestor of the Lin Family was nothing more than a drop of Jiang Chen’s blood.

As for the Lin Family Patriarch, and even Lin Yuan, they were merely parts of his blood, not complete human beings.

Jiang Chen suddenly let out a sigh.

A thousand years had passed. Finally, clues were beginning to appear, one by one.

This drop of blood, along with the lost memory from the Ghost Temple, made him vaguely realize that he had become incomplete after his death.

Perhaps his soul seemed whole now, but in reality, large pieces were still missing.

’I have to find all the pieces of myself, one by one.’

Jiang Chen understood that to return to his Peak, he had to make his body and soul whole again.

The instant the drop of blood vanished, a roar echoed within Jiang Chen’s consciousness.

Glowing characters began to appear one by one in his sea of consciousness.

’Ten Directions Calculation...’

Jiang Chen’s entire body trembled violently as he watched the characters light up one by one.

A piece of a memory began to surface.

The Ten Directions Calculation. Yes, it was the so-called Ten Directions Calculation of the Lin Family.

In reality, it was just another one of Jiang Chen’s missing memories.

Now, the memory had returned to him.

He grasped the principles of the Ten Directions Calculation almost instantly.

The Ten Directions Calculation was an incredibly powerful calculative art.

It could be used to predict fortune and misfortune, to calculate the future.

It was a powerful Magic that Jiang Chen had mastered in his past life.

Now, he had reclaimed it.

’So it seems everything was arranged long ago.’

’I’ve recovered something of my own.’

After the initial shock, Jiang Chen was filled with a wave of emotion.

’It seems that Pill Furnace really did shatter my body, soul, and memories.’

He fell into deep thought.

It all made sense now.

”Are you all right?”

Murong Xiangming asked, her shining eyes fixed on Jiang Chen.

He shook his head. ”I’m fine.”

He was more than fine, of course. His Cultivation had broken through, he had regained some of his memories, and he had even reacquired the Ten Directions Calculation.

It was as if this had all been his own arrangement; naturally, no one else could obtain his belongings.

”Alright, we should get ready to leave.”

Now that his Cultivation had advanced, Jiang Chen naturally had no desire to remain in the Yin-Yang Coffin.

With his Martial King Cultivation, he could join forces with Murong Xiangming to reverse the yin and yang and escape the Yin-Yang Coffin.

”What’s the rush?”

”It’s rare to get a moment of peace. Since the people outside can’t get in, why don’t we get some rest while we can?”

Murong Xiangming actually said.

Jiang Chen froze, unsure whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Murong Xiangming.

Murong Xiangming looked back at him.

He sighed.

”Fine. If you want to sleep, then sleep.”

”No one will disturb us, anyway.”

How could he possibly refuse Murong Xiangming?

Murong Xiangming’s face immediately broke into a smile, which blossomed like a flower.

”Hold me,”

she said, lowering her head.

Jiang Chen froze once again.

’This request is... outrageous.’

One of his arms was already under Murong Xiangming’s head, serving as her pillow.

”This isn’t a good idea.”

Jiang Chen felt helpless. Murong Xiangming was indeed breathtakingly beautiful, a truly pitiable and lovely sight, but his heart was always occupied by another.

”What’s wrong with it? I’m not married, and neither are you.”

With that, Murong Xiangming simply took Jiang Chen’s hand, pressed it against her slender waist, and ordered sternly, ”Don’t you dare let go.”

Then, she lowered her head and snuggled against his chest.

Her warm, fragrant, and delicate body was now pressed completely against his.

Jiang Chen went rigid.

He felt utterly helpless. ’Isn’t this woman a bit too domineering?’
