Divine War Pill Emperor

"Attack!"

At that moment, the men in black suddenly signaled to each other.

Then, the four of them shot forward from a distance, moving almost as one.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen’s expression changed.

’They’ve finally decided to make their move.’

He hurriedly ran toward the Jiang Family compound.

At the same time, he quickly assessed their Cultivation levels. The weakest among them was a Martial Master First Heaven.

The strongest was actually a master at the Martial Master Second Heaven.

To send four Martial Masters after him at once was truly a grand gesture.

’Damn, they really want me dead.’

Jiang Chen’s expression was grave as he ran.

He prepared all his defenses.

With his current Cultivation, using the Divine Wind Fan three times would completely drain him, so he didn’t dare use it lightly.

As for the Blazing Pills, he had four on hand.

He still hadn’t found any Gunpowder Grass, so even though he could refine more, he had no way to do it.

The ingredients were the biggest problem.

"Die!"

The four masters in black arrived almost simultaneously.

In the blink of an eye, they were seven or eight meters from Jiang Chen.

Their speed was incredible.

There were few people around to begin with.

Now, the remaining few were scared and fled for their lives, and shopkeepers shut their doors.

No one would interfere in this kind of battle.

In the Martial Cultivation Realm, battles to the death were all too common.

Countless people fought and died in Hanwu City every day.

Meddlers would end up as corpses in the wilderness.

This was why no one dared to get involved in the struggles of the Martial Cultivation Realm.

Jiang Chen could only face them alone.

SWOOSH!

He quickly threw the Blazing Pills in his hand.

He had four Blazing Pills; he kept one and used all the rest.

After all, facing four masters—some at First Heaven, one even at Second Heaven—he couldn’t afford to be careless.

He kept one in reserve for a surprise attack.

For now, at least, he still had enough power to use the Divine Wind Fan against one of them.

Of course, he also had the Soul-Breaking Poison ready to be deployed at a moment’s notice.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Almost simultaneously, the three Blazing Pills exploded on the three charging Martial Master First Heaven experts.

"Aaargh...!"

The power of the Blazing Pills was simply terrifying. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

The trio screamed incessantly as the blast sent them flying.

They never imagined that a mere Warrior Fifth Heaven brat would possess such an impossible-to-defend-against weapon.

The three of them were not only injured by the explosion, but their wounds were severe.

Their entire bodies were engulfed in flames.

Only the Martial Master Second Heaven expert had managed to avoid Jiang Chen’s Blazing Pills.

He watched as his three companions fell one after another.

Beneath his mask, his expression changed drastically.

This was completely unexpected. Their employer hadn’t mentioned that their target had such methods.

This meant the employer either didn’t know or knew and hadn’t told them.

They had suffered a huge loss right from the start.

’Dammit, how is this kid so unorthodox?’

’No, after we kill him, I’m demanding another five million essence crystals.’

Someone had paid five million essence crystals for Jiang Chen’s life, and they had taken the job.

They had thought dealing with a mere Warrior Fifth Heaven brat would be child’s play. Now it was clear they had gravely miscalculated.

"You’re courting death! How dare you injure my brothers."

The four of them were a team and were extremely close. Now that Jiang Chen had injured three of them, his killing intent toward him naturally intensified.

"Go to hell!"

He knew Jiang Chen had probably used up all his Blazing Pills.

Instantly, he slashed down at Jiang Chen with the sword in his hand.

Jiang Chen ignored the three wounded assassins for the moment.

Instead, he flung out the Soul-Breaking Poison, preparing to kill with it.

"Hmm?"

But to his fury, the man was holding his breath.

He didn’t inhale any of the poison at all.

The man, however, sneered inwardly. ’I knew you had poison, kid. I was already prepared for this move.’

"Miscalculated, haven’t you?"

He gave Jiang Chen a mocking smile.

Their employer had told them the kid used poison.

And the best way to avoid being poisoned was to hold one’s breath.

For a Martial Cultivator, not breathing for a period of time was a simple matter.

They didn’t need to breathe through their nose and mouth; they could breathe through the pores of their skin.

This allowed them to avoid inhaling any poison.

Jiang Chen’s expression turned extremely grim.

From the man’s strange smile, he knew these people were aware of some of his tricks.

For instance, they knew he used poison.

This made him realize that whoever wanted him dead must be someone who knew him.

At the very least, it was an acquaintance who had witnessed his methods.

’Shen Mi? Qiu Baxiong?’

In an instant, he thought of who might have hired the assassins.

Recently, only Shen Mi and Qiu Baxiong had a major conflict of interest with him.

If someone wanted to kill him, they were the most likely suspects.

Since the Soul-Breaking Poison had failed...

Jiang Chen knew the poison was temporarily ineffective against these people.

He simply put the Soul-Breaking Poison away.

With a flick of his wrist, a shimmering silver sword appeared in his hand.

That’s right, the Cloud Mist Sword.

This was the Cloud Mist Sword that Murong Xiangming had bought for him.

With his poison useless, the only trump card he had left was his own strength.

Of course, he still had one Blazing Pill, which he kept hidden in his hand, looking for an opportunity to use it on this man.

But the man was extremely cautious; it wouldn’t be easy to make him fall for it.

’Since it’s come to this, I’ll just have to fight you head-on.’

’It’s not yet certain who will come out on top.’

To survive, he had to fight this Martial Master Second Heaven expert with all he had.

SWISH!

His opponent also used a sword, but it wasn’t a Treasure Artifact—just a Magic Artifact.

The man’s sword strike arrived in an instant.

It was incredibly fast.

After all, he was a Martial Master Second Heaven expert. The speed of his attacks was simply not something a Martial Cultivator with a Warrior Cultivation could handle.

With no time to react, Jiang Chen fiercely swung the Divine Wind Fan in his left hand at the man.

SWOOSH!

A biting cold wind erupted from the Divine Wind Fan.

A terrifying, icy chill, carried by a fierce gale, instantly engulfed the man.

"Dammit, what kind of Magical Treasure is that?"

Although Jiang Chen’s Divine Wind Fan was a Spiritual Treasure, it normally didn’t reveal its aura.

So no one would recognize it as a terrifying Magical Treasure of the Spirit Treasure Level.

The man could clearly feel that the cold wind from the fan had a huge effect on him.

Not only did it swiftly knock his sword off course...

...but his body was also involuntarily forced back several steps by the Divine Wind’s icy blast.

"It’s that strong?"

The man was stunned. He had been forced back several steps by a single wave of Jiang Chen’s fan.

This bizarre technique shocked him to the core.

He had no idea Jiang Chen’s fan possessed such incredible power.

However, it had only knocked him back a few steps.

The man quickly stabilized himself.

"Kid, even if you’re holding a powerful treasure, you will die today!"

His companions were completely unable to help him now. They were wailing on the ground from the Blazing Pill explosions, severely injured.

He could only fight Jiang Chen alone.

And Jiang Chen’s strange methods made him simultaneously alarmed and extremely cautious.
