NOVEL NEXT Chapter 174
Jiang Chen’s mindset had changed.
He originally came to the Buddha Temple to disrupt Lin Feng’s opportunity.
But now, he didn’t want to disrupt it anymore.
Because this Son of Destiny was really disappointing.
Despite growing rapidly, he was still being abused by people like Jiang Lianyue.
If this continued and Lin Feng’s Dao Heart developed problems, he might actually be abandoned by destiny!
Then, his plan for ascension would be ruined.
Moreover, the plot was becoming more and more absurd. Even the Martial Emperor had already broken through the seal.
Therefore, Jiang Chen decided that as long as it didn’t exceed his control, he would let Lin Feng grow in the future and, if necessary, even lend a hand.
There was no choice. After all, Lin Feng was his tool for ascension, and before the grand finale, this tool couldn’t be broken by someone else.“Eldest Senior Brother, are you really not interested?”
“It’s the Six Prisons Demon Suppression Body! If you merge with this essence blood, I feel you could be invincible!”
“You should know that before the Buddha Temple was established, this place was the territory of the Demon Suppression Palace.”
“That Demon Suppression Old Ancestor was able to suppress the demons of the Upper Domain in the Central Domain by relying on this Six Prisons Demon Suppression Body!”
“Eldest Senior Brother, if you don’t want it, then I’ll take it!”
Lin Feng didn’t give up and kept on babbling and tempting.
Feeling annoyed, Jiang Chen raised his hand, ready to give him another hefty slap.
However, perhaps out of habit or because he was already on guard, Lin Feng actually dodged the slap.
This made Jiang Chen frown. Although he planned to let Lin Feng grow, this did not mean that his deep-seated hatred had dissipated.
Before the grand finale, he would still torment this protagonist. But now, this protagonist Lin Feng actually dared to dodge him?!
After a cold snort, Jiang Chen added another “Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon” move.
The overwhelming Buddhist power immediately pressed Lin Feng down and rendered him immobile.
“Can’t you change your move?” Lin Feng yelled while lying on the ground.
“No.”
“Why?”
“Because you’re a beast, and this move is specifically for taming beasts!”
Lin Feng was once again left speechless.
Since his injuries had not yet healed and Old Man Tianji’s soul power was further reduced, he could only watch helplessly as Jiang Chen approached.
Then, he slapped him over a dozen times.
Seeing stars and his head ringing, Lin Feng was seething with rage!
“He must have noticed something,” Old Man Tianji explained.
Lin Feng thought the same. Otherwise, with Jiang Chen’s personality, why would he willingly miss such an opportunity?
“I underestimated the Jiang Family!”
Old Man Tianji lamented, “I thought that information about the Six Prisons Demon Suppression Body had been lost over a thousand years. I didn’t expect the Jiang Family to still know about it!”
“Hmph!”
Lin Feng said disdainfully, “Sooner or later, I will take care of the Jiang Family too!”
How soon that “sooner or later” would be, he wasn’t sure.
After all, at this moment, he was practically powerless in front of Jiang Chen.
And just as the Buddhist power disappeared and Lin Feng regained his ability to move, preparing to merge with the essence blood himself,
“Sizzle—”
A sound like the searing of flames suddenly came from above.
Lin Feng looked up.
“Screech—”
The cry of a phoenix suddenly rang out.
Countless fire serpents spread from above, then converged into the form of a phoenix, beginning to incinerate everything in sight.
“Phoenix fire!” Old Man Tianji exclaimed in shock.
“Who on earth possesses such heavenly fire? Quickly take the essence blood and flee at once!”
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng didn’t act immediately but was momentarily stunned.
Because the phoenix fire before him reminded him of someone.
Someone who, through Zhang Hu’s hand, wanted to poison him to death, someone who acted even crazier than Qingning!
“Move quickly!!” Old Man Tianji urged again.
Finally snapped out of it, Lin Feng hurried forward to grab the floating essence blood.
But he had only taken one step when a figure in red fluttered before his eyes.
Xiao Hongyi stepped ahead, snatching the essence blood first, then tossed it upwards.
“Roar!!”
The roar of a tiger suddenly sounded.
Xiaobai burst through the flesh above, wrapped in black lightning, and swallowed the essence blood in one gulp.
“…”
At this moment, Lin Feng was dumbfounded.
He never expected that after all the hardships he went through to break into the Six Prisons, the essence blood would be snatched away…
After swallowing the essence blood, Xiaobai’s body underwent a noticeable transformation.
The tiger stripes that only appeared in its “transformation” state were now spreading across its body, moving like black lightning.
On Xiaobai’s forehead, a black flower emerged, shaped like a blooming six-petaled blossom.
“This… it has merged all the essence blood! It has become the Six Prisons Demon Suppression Tiger!” Old Man Tianji exclaimed upon seeing this, his voice filled with shock.
“Boom!”
Lin Feng felt as if he had been struck by lightning!
This Six Prisons Demon Suppression Body was his hope for rising to power. But now, this great opportunity had been snatched away by a foolish tiger!
Meanwhile, Jiang Chen was also somewhat stunned.
He had not planned to disrupt Lin Feng’s opportunity, but in the end, Lin Feng still lost the Six Prisons Demon Suppression Body.
In the original story, Xiaobai’s own bloodline was weak, and the ancient bloodline was too strong, which is why the Shape Transformation failed, leading to its death by explosion.
At this moment, the Six Prisons Demon-Suppressing Body has completely improved Xiaobai’s bloodline. This foolish tiger… could it actually succeed in Shape Transformation this time?
Still, whether Xiaobai can merge the essence blood of the Six Prisons Demon Suppression Body depends on whether the concentration of the ancient bloodline in its body meets the standard. Otherwise, Xiaobai will still explode and die.
This foolish tiger is so fierce this time. Disregarding its own safety for the sake of defying the heavens?
“Lucky you.” Xiao Hongyi said indifferently after seeing that Xiaobai was fine.
“Wuu!”
Hearing this, Xiaobai cried and ran to hide behind Jiang Chen.
“Eldest Senior Brother, your master is too terrifying! She said she’ll roast and eat me if I don’t eat this essence blood!”
Jiang Chen was speechless. He had found the culprit!
As for Xiao Hongyi knowing about the Six Prisons Demon Suppression Body, he wasn’t surprised.
After all, the Xiao family was a great family in the Central Domain, and the Jiuyan Old Ancestor had lived for who knows how long, so it was normal for her to know some secrets.
After understanding all this, Lin Feng completely resented Xiao Hongyi.
He had thought that if he had the chance, he would save this crazed beauty of a master, especially since Xiao Hongyi’s beauty was not something ordinary women could compare to.
Who knew that Xiao Hongyi actually destroyed his great opportunity?
“I told you before, beauty is a disaster. The prettier the woman, the more deceitful and vicious she is! You just wouldn’t listen to me!” Old Man Tianji complained.
This time, Lin Feng didn’t retort but was filled with regret.
If he hadn’t been thinking about tricking Jiang Chen, he might have been able to merge the essence blood earlier.
Even just one drop would have prevented Xiaobai from merging all six drops of essence blood and becoming the Six Prisons Demon Suppression Tiger.
If he could have killed Xiaobai after that, then he might have been able to take back the remaining essence blood.
But now, even if he had the ability to kill Xiaobai, he couldn’t retain the essence blood inheritance if Xiaobai was unwilling…
So, he got nothing this time.
He suffered in the Six Prisons, was beaten by the Martial Emperor, slapped by Jiang Chen, for nothing.
After all the hardships and suffering, he ended up shooting himself in the foot.
“Lin Feng, you idiot, why aren’t you running?!”
Suddenly, Jiang Chen’s shout rang out.
Hearing this, Lin Feng was taken aback again.
He felt that Jiang Chen was up to no good!
“Gulp…”
He swallowed hard after seeing Xiao Hongyi staring him down with phoenix fire continuously flaring on her body and a fierce look in her eyes.
