Chapter 681 - 681 One Step Late (1)

681 One Step Late (1)

Jiang Li’s unexpected arrival and success injured the golden dragon formed by the Blood King.

This greatly boosted the morale of the many experts of the Divine Judgment Hall.

Originally, according to the combat strength classification displayed, Jiang Li’s strength was basically equivalent to an Earth Immortal who had gathered three flowers, which was the level of a high-grade Divine Judgment leader.

Moreover, there was the help of the two Hall Masters, Qiu Shui and the pipa woman.

If they could gain Fengdu City’s strength, they could increase their combat strength by three times.

Coupled with the many Demon Kings and Earth Immortals under him, they could greatly make up for the combat strength that the Divine Judgment Hall had just lost.

However, they had not invited Jiang Li earlier.

The main reason was that the enemy they faced this time was only the Blood King. It was not like before, when there were a large number of experts from Tragic Death City to restrain.

Coupled with the troublesome characteristics of the Son of Heaven’s dragon qi, most spell techniques were useless against him.

Their strength was not at the level of the three divine pillars and there were only three of them, so even if there were two fewer, it would not be of any obvious use.

Therefore, at that time, they only wanted to sense the Pure White Tower and did not ask Jiang Li for help.

However, they did not expect that this Fengdu City Lord actually had a way to break through the extremely troublesome Son of Heaven’s dragon qi.

This was something that they had worked hard to achieve for a long time.

The three people from the Cloud Manor, the Flame Dynasty, and the Sea Palace suddenly recalled Jiang Li’s other title besides the City Lord of Fengdu City, the successor of the Human Emperor.

The Son of Heaven and the Human Emperor sounded like they were both rulers of mortal kingdoms.

However, there should be some differences.

It seemed that there was more to the two titles that outsiders did not know.

The name Human Emperor had long been lost after the ancient Divine Investiture Battle, so very few people had heard of it.

Only the three divine pillars or the descendants of Nüwa, who had a long history, knew a little.

However, they knew a little about the will represented by the title “Son of Heaven”.

This was because more than half of the forces present were divided in the former Immortal Qin Dynasty.

In order to destroy and divide that dynasty, they had also worked hard to study it.

They more or less had some understanding of the Qin Emperor’s lineage.

It was the true inheritance of the Son of Heaven that had been conferred by the Heavenly Palace.

Because the foundation of the Son of Heaven was the king of mortals to begin with, he did not need spiritual qi or cultivation to inherit the throne. Therefore, the Cultivationless Age could not destroy them and had been passed down until now.

What was the background of the Human Emperor who could restrain the Son of Heaven?

However, now was not the time to get to the bottom of it.

With Fengdu City’s strength, it was completely capable of keeping secrets from anyone in the current cultivation world.

They only needed to know that Jiang Li could injure the Blood King.

This was an opportunity, perhaps the only chance they had!

For a time, the battle began again. This time, the Divine Judgment Hall completely changed their tactics.

The situation finally changed.

The hundreds of cultivators led by the three divine pillars split into two waves.

With the Cloud Manor and the Flame Dynasty as the leaders, they flew to Jiang Li’s side and did not attack the enemy.

They only used various supplementary methods.

Some applied defense and blocked the Blood King’s attack.

Some expanded their domains and tried their best to delay the other party.

Some continuously cast buffs on Jiang Li.

Hundreds of top experts of the cultivation world of the Eastern Region surrounded Jiang Li and assisted him.

When Jiang Li reacted, he was already dazzled by the buffs that continuously appeared on his interface.

Just this moment alone had already provided him an amplification of more than 70% of his current strength.

One had to know that at their level, every step forward was extremely difficult.

Even the two Earth-rank artifacts on him could not increase it by 70%.

Jiang Li, who was originally feeling hot-blooded and prepared to fight the Blood King, became overjoyed.

He let the parallel mind control his body to pursue the Blood King Golden Dragon.

After that, he focused on the status panel and immediately made these buffs permanent.

Hundreds of top-notch experts guarded him and created opportunities for him with all their might.

Even the Nine-Five Golden Dragon, who was originally stronger than him, fell into a disadvantage.

His speed was restricted, and his attacks were blocked in advance every time, so he could only be attacked by Jiang Li in a one-sided manner.

If this dragged on, he might be killed on the spot by the halberd.

Another wave of Earth Immortals led by the Sea Palace took this opportunity to fly to the side of the Blood King Crown.

A white crystal fell, and the Sea Palace’s special spell, “Holy Sea Salt Frost”, was scattered on the red crown.

After the large number of bloody souls that emerged from the crown touched the salt and frost, they were like mayflies that had been thrown into a pile of salt, wailing and shrinking into residue.

The Blood King Crown was also burned by the salt and frost, emitting sizzling white smoke.

This salt and frost specialized in subduing evil spirits and ghosts.

The Blood King Crown was formed by sacrificing billions of living beings. It was really extremely evil.

Seeing that this method was indeed effective, the Sea Palace Master immediately cast another spell. He simply produced a huge ball of eye frost and wrapped the entire Blood King Crown inside.

With Jiang Li’s addition, injuries began to continuously appear on the Nine-Five Golden Dragon’s body. Its originally brilliant and inviolable aura also began to fall.
