Divine War Pill Emperor

WHOOSH!

Jiang Chen rushed toward the north gate.

Just as he reached the north gate, he saw countless Fire Sparrow Kingdom guards had completely sealed it off.

”Who goes there?”

At that moment, a general stepped forward and looked at Jiang Chen.

It was none other than Grand General Ming Chang, one of Wen Shixuan’s subordinates.

The Gambling City was on lockdown, and no one was allowed to leave. When someone suddenly rushed over so quickly, it looked suspiciously like an escape attempt.

They were in the middle of capturing criminals.

Jiang Chen stopped. According to the Black Fire Crow, the Night Ghost had already escaped the Gambling City.

This made him even more anxious.

Seeing Grand General Ming Chang at the city gate, Jiang Chen had no choice but to stop.

His expression was cold as he said, ”Get out of my way.”

If the Night Ghost got away, the Black Fire Crow wouldn’t be able to open its Celestial Eye.

His losses would be huge.

Grand General Ming Chang was already under orders to capture the Third Prince and Jiang Chen. Seeing Jiang Chen now, he was momentarily stunned.

Then, a dense killing intent flashed across his face.

He sneered, ”Well, well, if it isn’t you.”

”You’re the bastard who got my brother killed. Now that you’ve fallen into my hands, you’re dead meat.”

Jiang Chen now understood. This Grand General Ming Chang was the younger brother of Grand General Ming Zhe, the one killed by Fang Yinzi back in Guyue City.

His expression turned utterly cold.

”Since I was able to kill your brother, I can certainly kill you today.”

Not wanting to waste any more time, Jiang Chen cut the small talk.

Ming Chang sneered. ”What big talk.”

”A mere Martial King Third Heaven like you dares to run your mouth in front of me?”

”Hmph. You’re courting death.”

”Kill!”

With that, Grand General Ming Chang brandished his long spear and lunged at Jiang Chen. As an expert at the Martial King Seventh Heaven, his attack caused the boundless Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to roar.

It was a terrifying sight.

Seeing this, a cold glint flashed in Jiang Chen’s eyes.

He knew that based on his own power, he was no match for a Martial King Seventh Heaven expert like Grand General Ming Chang. A black light flashed, and a suit of armor materialized around him—the Demon-Defying Armor, capable of blocking three attacks from a Martial Emperor Expert.

Jiang Chen didn’t dare to be careless.

Nevertheless, he threw caution to the wind and charged toward Grand General Ming Chang.

He had no intention of getting bogged down in a fight with Grand General Ming Chang. Instead, several black Elixirs appeared in his hand.

Thunder Pills.

Jiang Chen’s opening move was to use the Thunder Pills.

WHOOSH!

He threw the Thunder Pills straight at Grand General Ming Chang.

BOOM!

With a massive explosion, Grand General Ming Chang was hit head-on.

He let out a muffled groan as his figure was sent flying back in a sorry state.

After all, as a Martial King Seventh Heaven expert, he had some ability to resist the explosive power of a Thunder Pill.

Even so, Grand General Ming Chang was in bad shape. He was covered in injuries. Caught off guard, Jiang Chen’s Thunder Pill was terrifyingly powerful—it had almost been enough to blow him to pieces.

”Seize him! Don’t let him escape!”

Grand General Ming Chang roared, absolutely determined not to let Jiang Chen get away.

The guards immediately swarmed in to attack.

Jiang Chen grew frantic. The Thunder Pills in his hand flew left and right.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM...

After a series of four or five explosions, the entire north gate was nearly flattened by Jiang Chen’s Thunder Pills.

The city gate hadn’t closed yet, and Jiang Chen seized the opportunity to dash out.

He left behind the battered Grand General Ming Chang and a group of guards, all screaming in agony.

SWOOSH!

The moment he was out of the city gate, Jiang Chen immediately took to the sky.

”Master, he’s just ahead! Hurry, after him!”

The Black Fire Crow urged him on, far more anxious than Jiang Chen. The Night Ghost was simply too important to it.

Jiang Chen’s speed increased.

Ahead, he could faintly see a streak of blue light speeding away.

’This Night Ghost also has a Martial King Cultivation.’

Jiang Chen gritted his teeth, and Black Fire erupted around his body, pushing his speed even higher.

Up ahead, the Night Ghost’s savage face was filled with panic.

Glancing back at the pursuing Jiang Chen, it knew its true opponent wasn’t him, but the Black Fire Crow on his shoulder.

”Night Ghost, you can’t escape!”

At this moment, the Black Fire Crow appeared on Jiang Chen’s shoulder and suddenly let out a screech at the Night Ghost ahead.

The Night Ghost was so frightened it almost fell out of the sky.

It shrieked and flew even faster.

GAK! GAK! GAK! GAK...

Just then, the Black Fire Crow suddenly let out a series of bizarre caws.

The sound was piercing to Jiang Chen’s ears.

But the fleeing Night Ghost up ahead began to tremble all over.

It was scared out of its wits.

’It’s over...’

It let out a single shriek, and its body immediately went limp, plummeting from the sky.

GAK! GAK! GAK! GAK...

The Black Fire Crow continued its cawing.

It explained to Jiang Chen, ”Master, the cry of my Black Fire Crow clan can make a Night Ghost instantly lose its will to resist.”

As its natural predator, the Black Fire Crow had completely suppressed the Night Ghost with its voice alone.

Jiang Chen didn’t need to lift a finger.

He hurriedly descended to the ground.

The Night Ghost was already sprawled on the ground, all its strength seemingly gone.

Jiang Chen was stunned. The Black Fire Crow’s cry had actually rendered the Night Ghost completely helpless.

”Member of the Black Fire Crow clan, you can’t devour me!”

The Night Ghost cried out frantically and began to beg for its life.

Facing the Black Fire Crow, it was completely powerless.

Even though it possessed a Martial King Cultivation, the Black Fire Crow clan was the ultimate bane of the Night Ghosts.

They were born to exist for the sole purpose of allowing the Black Fire Crows to open their Celestial Eye.

That was why Black Fire Crows searched the entire world for the Night Ghost clan.

And once within a certain distance, they had no hope of escaping the Black Fire Crow clan.

FLAP FLAP FLAP...

The Black Fire Crow flew down in front of the Night Ghost, overjoyed.

It shrieked, ”Stop your pointless struggle, Night Ghost! Fuse with me and let me open my Celestial Eye!”

The Night Ghost trembled.

Before it could respond, the Black Fire Crow abruptly spat out a stream of Black Fire. This Black Fire was different from Jiang Chen’s; it was a type of Pill Fire.

However, it was still able to suppress the Night Ghost.

The Night Ghost was instantly enveloped by the Black Fire.

It shrieked incessantly.

It tried to resist, but it had already lost all its Cultivation, suppressed by the Black Fire Crow.

In the end, the Black Fire Crow opened its beak and swallowed the Night Ghost whole.

The next moment, the Black Fire Crow’s body trembled.

Then, as Jiang Chen watched, the Black Fire Crow flapped its wings.

A slit appeared on its forehead.

This slit emitted an ethereal blue light.

The light was remarkably similar to the one that had emanated from the Night Ghost.

GAK! GAK! GAK! GAK...

As the crack on its forehead appeared, the Black Fire Crow seemed to be in some pain and began to screech relentlessly.

Jiang Chen paid it no mind. After all, opening a Celestial Eye was bound to involve some hardship.

This pain was a natural part of the process of opening the Celestial Eye.

The crack on the Black Fire Crow’s forehead grew wider and wider.

Until...

The crack became an eye.

The Black Fire Crow’s third eye.

FWOOSH!

A brilliant, ethereal blue light shot out from the Black Fire Crow’s third eye, soaring into the sky and piercing the heavens.

The blue light seemed almost corporeal.

”Hahahaha...”

”Master, I’ve finally opened my Celestial Eye!”

”Hahaha...”

The Black Fire Crow recovered from its pain, its entire body brimming with vigor.

Although its Cultivation hadn’t substantially improved, its Celestial Eye was now open.

It scanned its surroundings with its Celestial Eye.
