Chapter 1653: Dilemma of the Curse

Shen Xiang thought.If it was before, he would have needed to plant them. Now he could simply crush those pure energy leaves and fruits and water them with Creation Divine Liquid, acquiring large amou...Chapter 1653 - Woes from a Cursed Life

Jiang Ten Sword became enraged upon being ridiculed by Shen Xiang, and he unleashed his might in a burst of anger. Holding his sword, he charged at Shen Xiang with a chilling aura surrounding him. The demonic energy from the shattered dragon-slaying sword filled his body, exuding a dark aura. Shen Xiang chuckled at this sight, realizing that the mighty dragon-slaying sword was now releasing dark demonic energy into the water, staining it black. He knew that this evil energy was extremely potent.

Shen Xiang thought, "Indeed, trading with the Demon Emperor of Hell brings no good outcomes. The sword in your hands is infused with a dense demonic energy." Initially, he thought it would be a hard fight, but to his surprise, the opponent had filled up with evil energy at this moment, making it easy for him to deal with Jiang Ten Sword, who had completed the Demon Suppressing God Skill.

Jiang Ten Sword's eyes turned red, his sword energy turned violent and full of malice. This was a sign of him being corrupted by evil powers. Shen Xiang suspected that the dragon-slaying sword once belonged to the Demon Emperor of Hell, containing a considerable amount of evil power from him. He sensed the hidden wickedness in Jiang Ten Sword, who was now obsessed with killing Shen Xiang and had lost his mind due to being corrupted by the evil power within the dragon-slaying sword.

Shen Xiang thought, "You're in no condition to kill me now!" As Jiang Ten Sword's sword slashed towards him, it was a powerful attack filled with black energy that stained the sea around him. A golden divine light surrounded Shen Xiang as his dragon-slaying sword was repelled by the energy shield formed from suppressing the demon skill. The demonic dragon-slaying sword, now in a violent attack against Shen Xiang, was pushed away by the divine force.

Liu Xueting gave him instructions telepathically, knowing that they were continuously consuming energy against the many powerful pursuers. Jiang Ten Sword's attack missed his target and was pushed away, only causing him more anger as this sword could easily turn a holy person into a demon. If Jiang Ten Sword had not used the dragon-slaying sword, Shen Xiang might have had to fight harder to defeat him.

"Go rot in hell and see your master!" Shen Xiang took out the Dragon Suppressing Sacred Seal, throwing it into a mountain-like size of golden light, shining brilliantly like the fall from stars. It was descending towards Jiang Ten Sword who raised his sword to strike him. The demonic energy surged from the dragon-slaying sword and pierced the Dragon Suppressing Sacred Seal, but it was immediately crushed by its holy power.

Upon destroying the dragon-slaying sword, Jiang Ten Sword suddenly became more aware of his surroundings but too late. The demonic energy from the sword, now released upon its destruction, overwhelmed him and turned his body black instantly. His body was covered in sharp spines, forming layers of dark scales, completely transforming him into an terrifying demonic figure. The dragon-slaying sword's destruction also led Shen Xiang to sense the escaping demonic soul, which he tried to annihilate with his Soul Sucking Spell. Surprisingly, it vanished without a trace in just an instant.

"Your soul isn't completely dead; the demonic spirit is still alive. It can revive in Hell if it stays there for a while. His soul has already been sold to the Demon Emperor of Hell, so it's unlikely that he'd be completely destroyed. Otherwise, the Demon Emperor of Hell would suffer a loss," Liu Xueting said in annoyance.

Shen Xiang said to himself as he saw the dissipating dark demonic energy, "I didn't expect the Divine Realm to have dragons. There are quite a few of them. Just now, that sword must have slain many dragons to gather such a large amount of dragon-slaying energy." If there were no divine powers or the noble龍血脈, dragons in the Divine Realm would have a hard time surviving without any background. Without any strong foundation, they'd definitely be mistreated.

Liu Xueting's strength withdrew from Shen Xiang, and he only felt a tingling sensation instead of the intense pain that came before. "Someone else is coming, and I'm getting so tired of dealing with the Demon Emperor of Hell's curse. When will it end" Shen Xiang sensed the divine energy from all directions, realizing that there were many holy powers pursuing him. The leader was the Thunder Emperor of the Holy Heaven Domain, who ran the fastest.

"I have already killed Jiang Ten Sword. I don't feel like playing games with you now, and maybe next time!" Shen Xiang shouted loudly, his voice echoing across the eight directions, causing ripples in the sea. He then vanished into thin air with an aerial leap.

The moment Shen Xiang's energy disappeared, the Thunder Emperor stopped in his tracks and said coldly, "Shen Xiang, you can’t escape from me forever. Come out and face your fate now!"

With continuous information provided by the Demon Ministers of Hell, they were confident that they could eventually catch up with Shen Xiang as they did with Jiang Ten Sword.

However, realizing that it wouldn't be easy to acquire divine powers and considering Jiang Ten Sword's defeat, they understood the difficulty involved. Shen Xiang was still in the Sea of Nine Lives but had already left the Western Sea.

Most of his pursuers were in the Western Sea, but he suddenly appeared in the Eastern Sea. For these holy powers to reach him, they would have difficulty due to their distance from the teleportation points. They had to fly directly towards him.

In a small island of the Eastern Sea, Shen Xiang was resting here as he didn't have any divine elixirs. If it did exist, there'd be a powerful sea beast guarding this place. He was just resting here for his own peace of mind.

"If they keep coming, I'll have to run again!" Shen Xiang mumbled. If he had the power of a holy person now, he would be chasing them around instead.

"It's all from the Demon Ministers of Hell who informed us about your location. There should be several of them here, making it easy for us to deal with them," Liu Xueting said.

"Alas, I've thought about this too. It's easiest to deal with the Demon Ministers of Hell, using the Dragon Suppressing God Skill and the Dragon Suppressing Sacred Seal to crush them. However, finding any of them can be hard as these guys are probably terrified of me too." Shen Xiang sighed, feeling helpless. "Is there any way to break this damned curseh me equally," the Fire Temple alchemist said coldly, "You underestimate yourself by thinking you can match me equally in this competition. It's hard to control the quality of Floating Life Pills, and...
