Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2493: Chapter 2496: Blood Soul Mark

”What do you want to do?”

The faces of the people from the three great families changed again, and they hurriedly wanted to retreat.

”Go to hell!”

Jiang Chen shouted loudly, changing the hand sign in his hand and beckoning with his hand.

Swish, swish, swish!

The Five-Colored Light Sword instantly split into a dozen Five-Colored Sword Shadows, swiftly rushing towards those people from the three great families.

”No!”

”If you kill us, we’re really doomed!”

The dozen people shouted in panic, smelling the scent of death from those sword shadows.

Jiang Chen looked at those people expressionlessly, without the slightest ripple in his gaze.

He had already killed people from Qingyang Prefecture’s Prefect’s Mansion and the four great families, and killing a few more would make no difference.

Ssss!

The sound of sharp blades piercing bodies echoed, and the Five-Colored Sword Shadows caught up with the fleeing people, brutally piercing through their chests.

The Five Elements Devouring Emperor Formation is the most powerful attack formation Jiang Chen can set up at the moment. Although he cannot yet unleash the formation’s strongest power capable of slaying strong Virtual Refinement Realm Peak cultivators, killing these guys who can only exert Divine Infant Realm Peak strength is easy.

Watching as more than thirty people died under the two formations, the faces of Chen Rui and others changed completely.

Swish!

In the fearful gazes of everyone, Jiang Chen coldly glanced at Chen Rui and others, and with a flash of his figure, he leaped directly onto the crowd’s heads, waving his hand as streams of light composed of Spirit Stones flew toward the surroundings.

”What do you want to do?”

Chen Rui’s heart trembled fiercely, shouting loudly.

”Since you’ve come, you must pay the price!”

Jiang Chen replied coldly.

”We are from Yuanling Sect; if you dare to kill us, Yuanling Sect will never spare you!”

Chen Rui exclaimed in panic, retreating swiftly, trying to escape the range of Jiang Chen’s formation.

”Stay here!”

Yan Hu shouted angrily, transforming into a flash of lightning, instantly rushing to Chen Rui’s side, and fiercely slashed with his palm.

”Everyone, scatter and flee! Notify the sect immediately after you leave!”

Chen Rui’s expression changed, and his body flashed, avoiding Yan Hu’s palm, shouting toward the sky.

Whish, whish, whish!

People from the two great sects scattered and fled in all directions, but Yan Li and his two companions could not stop everyone.

However, they managed to intercept three people: Uncle Zhao, Chen Rui, and Liu Yunxia!

”Dammit! Get me out of here! If I die, you’re all dead!”

Under Yun Hai’s attack, Liu Yunxia shouted out in a panic, flustered.

A group of disciples from Qing Yun Sect changed their faces dramatically and rushed back. If Liu Yunxia were to die here, they wouldn’t have a good ending either!

Jiang Chen’s eyes flickered with a trace of hesitation, sighing inwardly, and shouted, ”Let them go!”

Yan Li and the others were momentarily stunned, then retreated and withdrew.

”Jiang Chen, you...”

Once out of the battle, Chen Rui opened his mouth to leave a harsh word.

Jiang Chen’s gaze turned cold, the Sky-Cleaving Spear appeared in his hand, fiercely stabbing out.

Swish!

A blue spear shadow instantly appeared before Chen Rui.

Chen Rui shivered, swallowed his words, and his figure flashed, quickly flying outside the gulch.

People from the two great sects fled in panic.

Glancing at Chen Rui and others’ departing backs, Jiang Chen raised his hand, and the Spirit Stones he had thrown out returned to his Space Ring.

Whish, whish, whish!

The figures of Yan Hu and the other two moved and surrounded Jiang Chen.

”Brother Jiang, why did you let them go?”

Yun Hai asked with a look of confusion.

Having charged forward, his body was stained with blood and bore several new scars.

”Brother Jiang didn’t plan to keep them in the first place, right? Those Spirit Stones didn’t seem to form a Formation Eye,” Yan Li said meaningfully, looking at Jiang Chen. When Jiang Chen had thrown out the Spirit Stones earlier, Yan Li didn’t sense any formation waves.

”Correct! I threw out the Spirit Stones just to scare them!”

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, then turned to Yun Hai, offering a Life Essence Elixir: ”Take this first to heal.”

Reluctantly, Yun Hai took the elixir, landed on the ground, and started recovering.

Jiang Chen and his two companions also landed on the ground, guarding Yun Hai.

”Mr. Jiang, you did the right thing,” Yan Li suddenly said, seemingly unprovoked.

Jiang Chen glanced at Yan Li with a smile, offering no further explanation. He believed with Yan Li and Yun Hai’s experience, they would understand.

Earlier, killing those people from Qingyang Prefecture’s three great families was to deter them and drive away Chen Rui and others.

During this time, Jiang Chen also learned some information, knowing that the Family Head of the fourth great families of Qingyang Prefecture only had the strength of an Integration Realm Peak.

With such a level of power, relying on the deterrence of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan, they absolutely wouldn’t dare to make a move against Jiang Chen and his companions in the deserted town. Once they left the deserted town, it wouldn’t be easy to find him.

Both sects are among the twelve lightest in the inner circles, and these powerful sects all have Saints stationed within. Since Jiang Chen had already killed people from the Spirit Sword Sect, offending one sect, if he killed Chen Rui and others too, even the Gold-devouring Rat Clan might not be able to protect him and his companions.

”By the way, Senior Yan Li,”

Thinking of Spirit Sword Sect, Jiang Chen remembered something and softly inquired, ”Do you know how to remove the Blood Soul Mark?”

”Blood Soul Mark!?”

Yan Li was startled, looked at Jiang Chen with surprise: ”Mr. Jiang seems intent on not letting Chen Rui and others go? Among them, only Liu Yunxia would carry the Blood Soul Mark; are you planning to kill Liu Yunxia?”

”Ah?”

Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned, then understood, realizing Yan Li had misunderstood. However, he caught something else from Yan Li’s words: ”Isn’t the Blood Soul Mark something every disciple of the twelve inner circle sects has?”

”Of course not.” Yan Li shook his head lightly, ”To plant a Blood Soul Mark requires a drop of Essence Blood from a Semi-Saint or higher. You know how precious this Essence Blood is to a cultivator; let alone a Semi-Saint’s. In the twelve inner circle sects, only some descendants of top experts or most valued disciples would have their elders plant a Blood Soul Mark on them.”

Glancing at Yun Hai, Yan Li chuckled, ”Yun Hai also has the Blood Soul Mark, which is why he dares to venture alone into the deserted plains.”

”Hmm? Isn’t the Blood Soul Mark only useful after death? Does it have other uses?”

Jiang Chen asked in surprise.

”Of course not; who told you that?” Yan Li chuckled lightly, ”It can also be used before death. When someone with a Blood Soul Mark senses their life is at risk, they can activate it. Once activated, the mark becomes visible, and upon seeing it, opponents may hesitate, perhaps refraining from further attacks since nobody wants to provoke a Semi-Saint or even a Saint.”

Jiang Chen blinked, slightly furrowed his brows, then relaxed them.

Back then, people from Spirit Sword Sect didn’t activate the Blood Soul Mark, but perhaps they didn’t have time to trigger it before being obliterated by Jiang Chen’s formation?
