I am a prince in Zhutian Films

Chapter 452 Demon Lord Bai Suzhen

Even if he doesn't die, he'll be severely injured?

Ice Emperor sneered. He could tell that Ying Xun had no intention of making a move. How could he be seriously injured? Did they think they were fooling a fool?!

however……

The next second, the Ice Emperor's cold smile froze.

His heart suddenly started racing, and his blood began to flow rapidly, like a floodgate being opened, rushing wildly through his body.

He could even hear the rapid, drum-like pounding of his heart and the sound of his blood flowing fast.

But that's not the point. The point is that he felt his blood burning.

Yes, the blood is burning.

Blood and Qi, blood is the foundation of Qi. The blood in his body, amidst the surging of true Qi, burned wildly like a raging fire, transforming into a surging and pure power.

These forces are constantly accumulating within the body, just waiting for the moment to erupt.

The Ice Emperor can guarantee that his next strike will be the strongest he has ever delivered, one that will shake the very heavens and earth.

However, even if he survives this attack, he will be like a candle flickering in the wind.

Just as Ying Xun said, even if he doesn't die, he will be seriously injured.

"What...what's going on?"

The Ice Emperor was utterly horrified.

Could it be that Ying Xun Gang tampered with his body?

No, not possible!
Ying Xun only made three moves; the first glance and the first sword strike merely neutralized his attack.

Even though the final sword strike had some sword energy entering his body, he dispelled it completely.

But besides the unfathomable Ying Xun, who else could possibly do something to him without him even realizing it?

and many more.

There really was one person!

The image of the enormous figure surrounded by condensed ice involuntarily appeared in the Ice Emperor's mind, and at the same time, he thought of a martial art—the Sacred Heart Technique.

The Sacred Heart Technique is a divine skill created by Emperor Shitian over a thousand years by fusing various martial arts styles with his own phoenix blood.

This divine skill is both offensive and defensive, possessing the heaven-defying ability to grant immortality and even resurrection.

For example, in the comics, the Holy Mother once used the Sacred Heart Technique to revive Huai Kong.

The Sacred Heart Manual can be broadly divided into the Four Sacred Heart Manuals and the Four Sacred Heart Tribulations.

The performance of the Four Sacred Heart Techniques is relatively average, but each move of the Four Sacred Heart Tribulations is very special.

Stunning Strike: Using your gaze to overwhelm the enemy's mind.

Evil Blood Calamity: Can manipulate the blood of others, causing their blood to flow backward and their bodies to explode and die.

Heavenly Heart Tribulation: It can use one's own heart to make the enemy's heart beat, causing the opponent's heart to burst and die, but it is useless against people with firm wills.

The Calamity of the Soul: is an attack on the primordial spirit.

It is said that the Tribulation of the Gods is the most terrifying of the four tribulations of the Holy Heart, but Indra never used it before his death.

At present, the Ice Emperor has clearly fallen victim to the evil blood tribulation of Emperor Shitian.

"Indra, you...you will not die a good death!"

Ice Emperor's expression was ferocious and desperate. In an instant, he understood Di Shitian's plan: to use his century of cultivation, or even his life, to test Ying Xun's strength.

Unfortunately, although he could guess what was going on, he was no longer able to take revenge on that old monster who called himself "Heaven".

next second.

boom!
With a deafening roar, the Ice Emperor exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

At the very front of the blood mist, a cold and indifferent face materialized, exuding an aura of majesty that rivaled the heavens, like a god who held sway over the universe and looked down upon all living beings as insignificant ants.

It was enveloped in immense blood energy, carrying an irresistible and inviolable aura, and rushed towards Ying Xun like a raging hurricane, destroying everything in its path.

"Di Shitian, you really are a dog, actually using the Ice Emperor's life to launch a remote attack."

Ying Xun looked at the blood-red "deity" formed from the essence of the Ice Emperor, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

Immediately afterward, a thought flashed through his mind, and an iron sword appeared in his hand.

It's the hand with the divine stone!

"cut!"

The sword light soared into the sky, and the enormous sword shadow, as if splitting the heavens and earth, cleaved down. After a brief stalemate with the blood-red deity, it shattered it with a thunderous roar, turning into a sky full of bloody energy.

"go."

Ying Xun made another move, a sword light piercing through the pervasive blood aura and then disappearing into thin air, as if it had pierced into the void.

"Old man, don't think that just because you're hiding in the shadows, I can't hurt you. Enjoy this sword strike."

……

Tianmen, the strongest sect in the Central Plains.

Its influence was so widespread and its number of experts far surpassed even the World Society, which swept across the martial arts world.

Originally hidden without a trace, it was exposed to the world by Ying Xun's decree, shocking the entire world.

Even if everyone in the world knew of the existence of the powerful Heavenly Gate, it would be extremely difficult to find the mysterious Heavenly Gate without the guidance of its officials, because the Heavenly Gate was hidden in a very deep ice cave.

The ice cave is divided into three realms: heaven, earth, and humanity.

The first level, the Immovable Human Realm, contains nearly a hundred statues, almost all of whom were once or are now renowned masters in the martial arts world. They secretly joined the Heavenly Gate, and Emperor Shitian made ice sculptures based on their appearances to accompany the gods.

The second layer, the Realm of Freedom, is the residence of the gods under Indra's command. It is filled with strange and enormous ice pillars, and is extremely cold.

The third level is the Void Heaven Realm, the solitary abode of Indra. The most striking feature is a huge block of ice, crystal clear, like a mirror.

At this moment, a murmur suddenly rang out in the void of the heavens.

It sounds ethereal and detached from any emotion.

"Failed? Nineteenth Prince, you truly surprise this old minister. Even the Ice Emperor's century of power couldn't harm you?"

Suddenly, the voice let out another painful groan.

"Ah~"

At the same time, a strange figure was also reflected on the huge ice surface.

The figure was kneeling, covering its head.

"Damn it, damn it! They actually managed to injure my soul through a wisp of divine thought I left behind!"

Indra's breathing became slightly rapid. After a long while, he stood up again and resumed the proud demeanor befitting a "heaven".

"Young Master Nineteen, I will show you that the majesty of Heaven is not something anyone can defy. Even His Majesty could not do so back then, and neither can you!"

When these words were spoken, the entire ice cave trembled, and the three realms of heaven, earth, and humanity shook violently.

The priests in the underworld and the martial arts masters in the human world felt as if they were enveloped by an immense pressure. The fear that arose in their hearts made them kneel down on the ground, their expressions trembling and devout, as if they were worshipping a god they revered, worshipping... Heaven!

But is a sky that can be injured by humans truly a sky?

On the other side, West Lake.

Ying Xun stood with his sword in hand, and said with a faint smile, "Demon Lord, after watching for so long, won't you show yourself?" "It's only been half a year since I last saw you, but I didn't expect Young Master Ying's strength to have improved to such an extent."

The voice was peculiar, as if it came from the clouds, ethereal and elusive, yet it also seemed to come from hell, domineering, cruel, and ruthless. But upon closer listening, there was a touch of tenderness that was deeply moving, making it unforgettable.

As the voice rang out, a cloud of black mist drifted over from not far away. After stopping about ten feet in front of Ying Xun, the black mist began to change shape and finally condensed into a human figure, standing opposite Ying Xun.

"Demon Lord, since you are willing to show yourself, why bother hiding your identity?"

With Ying Xun's current strength, the mere black mist cannot obstruct his vision at all.

However, since she was hiding in the black mist, it would be somewhat offensive to use one's "eyesight" directly. But he was really curious about what Bai Suzhen looked like, so he made this statement.

Of course, if Bai Suzhen is unwilling to show her true face, he will not force her.

The Demon Lord remained silent for a moment, then the black mist dissipated, revealing a woman dressed in a black dress.

Even though Ying Xun was a man of great experience, he couldn't help but be amazed when he saw Bai Suzhen's true face.

Bai Suzhen looked to be around twenty years old, dressed in a flowing black gauze dress. She resembled an elf in the night or a fairy riding the wind, as if she might transform into an immortal at any moment.

Her beauty is unparalleled, truly deserving of the description of a beauty that could topple kingdoms, but those who see her for the first time will not only focus on her appearance.

The aura of transcendence she exuded was even more striking than her appearance.

Ying Xun clasped his hands in a salute: "Previously in Wushuang City, the Demon Lord spared no effort to save the citizens of Wushuang City. I thank him on their behalf."

Bai Suzhen shook her head: "Young Master Ying should know that Dugu Yifang was actually an imposter under my command. This was due to my lax management, which almost led to disaster. It was only right that I saved them. I do thank you for eliminating him for me, but..."

"Just what?"

"I'm just curious, if I hadn't intervened, would you have saved the citizens of Wushuang City?"

"meeting."

Ying Xun did not hesitate.

Bai Suzhen's indifferent expression seemed to show a hint of appreciation as she smiled slightly and said, "Speaking of Wushuang City, I must congratulate Young Master Ying on obtaining that unparalleled and unforgettable Love Technique."

"So, does the Demon Lord want to uncover the secret of the Love That Shakes the City?"

"That's definitely the idea."

"Then you have to keep an eye on it."

The words had barely left his lips when the Demon Lord's position was shattered. A massive sword mark spread out, extending for dozens of feet, and everything in its path was destroyed.

More importantly, it's fast!
Incredibly fast.

It was so fast that there was almost no time to dodge.

It perfectly illustrates the saying that speed is the ultimate weapon in martial arts.

Bai Suzhen frowned slightly, her expression grave: "This... is this the love that could topple cities?"

Although she had dodged the previous sword strike, she still couldn't completely avoid it, and a corner of her long dress was cut off.

Keep in mind that this was only because Ying Xun did not intend to kill her. If it were a fatal sword strike, she would probably have no choice but to withstand it and would have no way to dodge it.

More importantly, as far as she knew, true love was about swordplay, not knife skills.

However, Ying Xun was using a sword, which prevented him from fully unleashing the true power of the Love That Could Topple a City.

"It was just a sword strike containing true meaning." Ying Xun shook his head and sighed softly: "That move was too powerful, so I broke it down. Its power is not bad, but against a peerless master like the Demon Lord, I'm afraid it would be difficult to achieve anything."

The Demon Lord was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, this move is very strong, especially the speed of the sword strike. If you use your full strength, I can't dodge it. It's hard to imagine that there is such an amazing move in the world."

“It is indeed amazing.” Ying Xun smiled. “But no matter how amazing it is, you will definitely be able to handle it.”

Bai Suzhen was taken aback: "Oh, why?"

She herself was not confident, but she did not expect Ying Xun to have so much faith in her.

"Because you are Bai Suzhen, the Demon Lord who is meant to save all living beings from demonhood."

"The demon saves all living beings... It seems you really know a lot." Bai Suzhen's beautiful eyes flickered, and she sighed silently.

She lived for two hundred years and claimed to have unraveled all the mysteries of the world.

But after the list of shocking events was released, she realized that there were many incredible beings in this world.

Of course, the most incredible thing is that the "me" in front of me who compiled the list of terrors has already seen through many mysteries at such a young age, and even knows about her plan to save all living beings from evil.

Wait!
Could it be that……

"You know so many secrets, could it be that you obtained the Heavenly Cry Scripture, which allows one to observe the full wonders of heaven and earth?!"

"No."

Ying Xun shook his head, offering no explanation.

"Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't ask any further. After all, everyone has their own secrets."

"Thank you for your understanding, Demon Lord." Ying Xun clasped his hands and smiled. "By the way, Demon Lord, you invited me to Qiantang for a chat. May I ask what brings you here?"

"I had intended to recruit you into my ranks, but after seeing you today..." Demon Lord Bai Suzhen paused, then smiled bitterly, "I now realize that there are always people more capable than you, and that I was just being narrow-minded."

She is also a proud person.

Of course, Bai Suzhen's talent was something she could be proud of.

But if we only consider martial arts... at least in Bai Suzhen's opinion, her talent is far inferior to Ying Xun's, after all, Ying Xun's combat strength, which he had shown before, was no less than hers.

You should know that she is a person who has lived for two hundred years.

How old is Ying Xun?
How long have you been cultivating?
Therefore, her pride was shattered, and she naturally couldn't bring up the recruitment matter again.

Ying Xun paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "I will not serve anyone, but if we were to cooperate, I wonder if the Demon Lord would be interested?"

"cooperate?"

“Not bad.” Ying Xun nodded and said, “I promised the Sword Saint that I would look after Wushuang City for a year, but I have been going out frequently in the past year, so I need a master to oversee it. Therefore, I would like to ask you to cooperate with me.”

Bai Suzhen's eyes flickered: "What benefits would I gain from cooperating with you?"

"As for the benefits..."

Ying Xun remained silent for a long while before speaking: "For example, helping you unlock the Bodhidharma Heart, or helping you kill the Immortal God to avenge yourself, or making you realize the ultimate goal of the Demon to save all living beings... is not feasible!"

When she heard the first two examples, Bai Suzhen was somewhat emotionally affected, but she was still able to remain calm and composed. However, when she heard that the goal of the demons saving all living beings was not feasible, her face immediately turned frosty.

"You're saying... the goal of saving all living beings from evil is impossible to achieve?!"

"That's right, it's impossible to achieve at least now, and it's impossible to achieve even for a long time to come."

Back then, the immortal god promised Fahai that he would overthrow the imperial system, thus making Fahai willingly follow him. Bai Suzhen's mission to save all living beings from the demonic influence went even further than overthrowing the imperial system.

Because the ultimate goal of her plan to save all living beings is fairness and democracy.

But it is clear that in this day and age, achieving fairness and democracy is simply wishful thinking.

"I do not believe."

It should be understood that fairness and democracy were what the Demon Lord Bai Suzhen sought and pursued throughout her life, and she had strived for them for a hundred years.

Now that Ying Xun says that fairness and democracy are impossible, she naturally cannot accept it.

If it really can't be achieved, then what is the point of her efforts over the past hundred years?
Isn't her lifelong pursuit a joke?
Ying Xun said calmly, "Whether you believe it or not is not important. As long as you agree to cooperate with me, I will help you understand why your goal of fairness and democracy is impossible to achieve."

Of course, if it's just about staying in Wushuang City for a year, you can only choose one of the three options. If you choose to unlock the Heart of Bodhidharma, as a sign of sincerity, I can unlock it for you first.
