The Star River Era! The Dimensional Freedom Demon

"Oh right, didn't I promise Baochai I'd visit her relatives?"

Ji Chen suddenly remembered this matter.

"Never mind, that Buddhist scripture was too strange, and Dream of the Red Chamber... it's a bit too complicated."

"Once I have completely swept away this world and swallowed it whole, I will have plenty of ways to help her."

Romantic entanglements are nothing compared to the grand undertaking of conquering the world.

Only when this tributary, which he had completely altered, flows into his own dimensional space can Ji Chen, as a dimensional demon, truly rest easy.

Once you're in your own domain, all sorts of monsters and demons have to step aside.

After glancing at the world strategy guide, Ji Chen left his final message in the capital:

"Those with pig-tail braids will all die within three days!"

The booming voice, amplified by the aura and spiritual power, resonated throughout the city, terrifying everyone into kneeling and begging for mercy, calling him a deity.

"This is a decree from the gods."

"No wonder the Liao people lost the world in just six months; they have angered the gods!"

"No, no, I want to go home and cut off this sloppy pig's tail so the gods won't blame us."

In feudal times, anything imbued with the aura of gods or immortals became extremely convincing.

With the cold wind filling his sleeves, Ji Chen left those words and headed towards Guangling.

The two forces that had been bothering Ji Chen, the White Sun Sect's chief instructor and Qing Ting, were completely defeated by him. As a result, Ji Chen was in a particularly relaxed mood along the way and had the leisure to carefully appreciate the scenery of the northern country.

The snow-covered plains stretched as far as the eye could see, the sky and earth blending into one color, and the distant mountains, dark as ink, lay silently on the horizon, like sleeping giants.

"The White Sun Sect has lost its Grandmaster, and the Fragrance Sect's Leader Wang has been subdued by me and dares not oppose me. After the New Year, we can subdue these southern states."

"I stormed into the capital and killed the emperor. The powerful and wealthy fled in all directions. I'm afraid Qingting won't even be able to hold off the Heavenly Principle Sect for a month. In the next six months, it will probably be a standoff between our two families, one in the north and one in the south, vying for the throne."

Thinking about this, Ji Chen suddenly realized that he had been taken advantage of.

He stormed the palace and tore those two scoundrel emperors apart; it certainly felt satisfying.

But in a way, his actions also helped his competitors.

Ji Chen immediately burst out laughing.

But then he thought that if the Qing soldiers in Yongqiu hadn't held Lin Chaosheng back, how could those priceless books in Mingyuan have fallen into Ji Chen's hands so easily?

I'm afraid I'll have to fight with Lin Chaosheng again, and maybe a few things will get damaged.

Perhaps it was due to the extraordinary divine sense that someone's murmur disturbed Lin Chaosheng.

When Ji Chen passed through Sizhou, he suddenly felt something. He looked up and saw a figure in a green robe sitting alone in a pavilion on an unnamed hill, brewing tea, with white steam rising around him.

The man was looking over from the side, his gaze as deep as a pool, when it met Ji Chen's eyes.

Ji Chen's gaze sharpened slightly.

This was the first time he had "seen" Lin Chaosheng so closely.

The last time was during the surprise attack on Poyang Lake that left Lin Chaosheng in a sorry state. At that time, the lake was vast and misty, and the two were several miles apart, only able to catch a glimpse of each other from afar.

And at this moment—

It's only a kilometer away.

For ordinary people, it is still far away, but for martial arts masters like them who have reached the ends of the earth, it is no different from facing each other face to face.

"When did you arrive, Brother Lin?"

Ji Chen was not intimidated. It was true that Lin Chaosheng was the best in the world, but the question of who was stronger between the two could only be answered after they fought.

"Brother Lin?"

Lin Chaosheng's hand was a beat slow in making tea for Ji Chen, and he shook his head and chuckled:

Do you know how old I am now?

Ji Chen sat opposite Lin Chaosheng, looking at the man's face, which could be described as middle-aged or youthful, and could only give a conservative answer:

"Over fifty?"

"I'm almost seventy. Back when I hadn't yet broken away from the Luo Sect, your grandmaster Lu Dongsheng still called me senior brother. So, will you still call me brother Lin?"

He continued speaking without waiting for Ji Chen's reply.

"Seventy!"

Lin Chaosheng stood up, gazed at the vast expanse of heaven and earth, and sighed:

"It is rare to live past seventy since ancient times, and even for us, can one have two seventy-year periods in a lifetime?"

Ji Chen was greatly shocked.

Lin Chaosheng's age had exceeded his expectations.

But what he didn't expect was the relationship between Lin Chaosheng and Chen Dongsheng.

That gray-haired, cheap master who died in Tieling was actually Lin Chaosheng, the young man in front of me.

Of course, since they've already separated, Lin Chaosheng's discussion of this topic now is clearly not to give him a crash course on the Luo sect's lineage.

Looking at the passionate and spirited senior uncle in front of him, Ji Chen roughly understood the purpose of his trip.

really.

Lin Chaosheng's subsequent words confirmed his suspicions.

"I know you have accomplished several great things, annihilating the main force of the Liu family and throwing the capital into chaos. Your strength has undoubtedly reached the same level as mine."

He then said sincerely:

"I don't know why you disagree with my previous recruitment, but my promise still stands. We're family, so why be distant?"

"This time, I'm personally recruiting you. If we join forces to build a new dynasty, you'll be the emperor in three years! What do you say?"

Facing his hopeful gaze, Ji Chen sighed inwardly:

"Three years? Even if time flows quickly here, it would still take at least two months in the main world. Capricorn isn't safe either. After the identity of the first person to pass on the Luo School's cultivation technique was exposed, many people have been testing us, both openly and secretly. In addition, recently the alien races and the Evil God Church in Juehua City have shown their claws. Old Lin, I'm in a hurry!"

Even though Ji Chen concealed his emotions well, Lin Chaosheng still sensed his choice, and his eyes couldn't help but show disappointment.

"Since that's the case..."

A sudden gust of wind arose, and the stone table placed in front of the two instantly turned to dust, drastically changing the atmosphere between them.

"Then let's see who's the best!"

Considering the brief period of harmony between the two earlier, Ji Chen added one last comment.

"Old Lin, if you trust me, I can let you take over my job in three years. It won't mess things up for you."

Lin Chaosheng laughed heartily.

"Outsider, is this your answer?"

He ignored Ji Chen's sudden change in expression, but his voice gradually became higher and deeper, as if it came from the clouds:

"The path I, Lin Chaosheng, have sought throughout my life has always been to obtain it through my own hands, never seeking it from others. It's just as I wish to witness the extraordinary skills of those beyond the heavens."

He is nearly seventy years old and can still maintain his peak condition now. In a few years, his vitality will probably decline.

Putting aside whether Ji Qingyun is willing to step down at such a young age, even if he were, what if it drags on for a few years? By then, he would have broken through the void and gone to the outer heavens. At that time, with his advanced age, how much potential would he have left to pursue his future?

Therefore, he must be the first to drink the soup for the throne.

Lin Chaosheng slowly raised his jade-like palm, like the sky collapsing, pressing down with irresistible majesty!

Ji Chen remained fearless, neither dodging nor evading. His blood and qi erupted, his inner strength surging like a tidal wave. His right hand formed a claw, tearing through the air like a thunderous dragon, striking straight at Lin Chaosheng's chest.

The palm struck the crown of the head, producing a dull, loud thud.

Lin Chaosheng slapped Ji Chen's head with his palm. With his steel body combined with his protective qi and the support of his abundant blood and qi, the palm strike only made him slightly dizzy.

Lin Chaosheng was slightly surprised as Ji Chen's dragon claw had already reached his chest.

Lin Chaosheng's green robe suddenly billowed, like waves rising from a blue sea, and a continuous, seemingly ethereal yet real, energy rippled outwards, constantly dissipating and neutralizing the sharp claw force that could easily shatter even boulders...

After a brief exchange, both sides realized how formidable the other was.

But their competitive spirit was also gradually rising.

Masters are lonely, especially those at the very top of their field.

Lin Chaosheng moved with incredible speed, almost like a ghost, to face Ji Chen once again.

Every move he made contained profound meaning, as if the laws of heaven were manifesting themselves, causing the surrounding airflow to stagnate like a mountain, as if the rules of heaven and earth were all flowing in his palm.

Ji Chen roared, shaking the sky like a divine dragon breaking through the clouds. His body was filled with surging energy and accompanied by thunder. With fierce and domineering power, he forcefully broke through the invisible constraints that Lin Chaosheng had placed around him.

The two figures intertwined, sometimes separating and sometimes reuniting.

Each impact caused the air to hum and the air waves to surge into the sky, reducing the surrounding mountains, rocks, and trees to dust.

In a short time, the snow on this nameless hill was melted into boiling water, and then the ground became brittle and began to collapse.

Suddenly, Lin Chaosheng's move changed abruptly, and he pointed a finger at Ji Chenping.

At first glance, this finger gesture seemed ordinary, but in the instant it was made, it transformed into thousands of finger shadows, covering Ji Chen's entire body in an overwhelming manner.

Nine Heavenly Seals!

This is a secret technique that Lin Chaosheng created after twelve years of studying the principles of heaven and earth at the summit.

Seal off blood and qi, seal off internal energy, seal off mental thoughts.

If all nine predictions are correct, even the most outstanding person in the world will turn into an unknowing and insensible stone!
