I Collect Skill Fragments in the Demon World

The Tree of Life Coffin can extend the lifespan of all beings, similar in function to the Peach Tree and Ginseng Fruit. It is definitely not an acquired tree, but belongs to the innate category.

I have already obtained the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu. If I can acquire the Tree of Life as well, it will certainly grant an unimaginable power boost, greatly advancing my comprehension of the Law of Life.

He has already arranged everything, just waiting for the right moment to seize the opponent’s Tree of Life Coffin. He even picked someone to take the blame, so he needs to remove himself from the situation in advance.

The atmosphere in the field is serious at this moment. Zhang Chen looked seriously at Chen Ping and said, "Mr. Zhou’s safety, I’ll entrust to you, Brother Chen."

He knows Chen Ping is someone worthy of trust, so he entrusted Zhou Qiucheng to him.

"Rest assured, unless I die, I won’t let those beasts harm Mr. Zhou." Chen Ping’s eyes showed a trace of solemnity.

Upon hearing Chen Ping’s words, Zhang Chen nodded: "I still have matters to attend to, prepare in advance, we’ll meet outside the city when the time comes."

"Be very careful yourself, you must live and walk out of Jinling City," Zhou Qiucheng warned Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen smiled upon hearing it: "Don’t worry, there’s no one in this world that can kill me."

Zhang Chen returned to his courtyard in Jinling City, only to find the whole residence dead silent; the servants had long vanished, taking the household money without a trace.

Those were merely some money, he didn’t care much, but walked inside the house, glanced at the burning Soul-Forming Lamp, and had put an Invisibility Rune on it, not fearing the servants would take it.

"Tell me about the Twelve Primordial Stars Array and the key to breaking it." Zhang Chen summoned the Great Freedom Celestial Demon and inquired about the array-breaking details. The Great Freedom Celestial Demon said:

"Although there’s a Blood Sea Array, the Blood Sea Array set up by the Yellow Heaven Dao is too low-end. It can’t break the Twelve Primordial Stars Array, only exploit its flaws to carve out a path of survival."

"You have the Celestial Measuring Ruler, I’ll first find the flaw nodes of the array, then you use the ruler to stabilize them. Then you can temporarily open a passage, insert the Blood Sea Array, use it to fix the nodes, and seize the chance to forge a pathway." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon said.

The Innate Water God Array couldn’t even trap him, having found the array-breaking nodes, how could he fear the Twelve Primordial Stars Array?

"Please assist me, ancestor." Zhang Chen solemnly bowed to the Great Freedom Celestial Demon.

"No problem, just some minor matters, not worth mentioning. We share honor and disgrace now, our interests are unified. I can’t cheat you, I’m still relying on you to soar." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon laughed lightly, disappearing in a flash, leaving Zhang Chen gazing silently at its distant silhouette.

The Great Freedom Celestial Demon went to find the array-breaking patterns of the Twelve Primordial Stars Array while Zhang Chen continued observing the Law of Heaven and Earth, striving to elevate his Qi Cultivation Technique to a higher realm.

As time passed by, about an hour later, waves of emotion surged within him, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon’s message had arrived.

"Those two key nodes are found! The Great Freedom Celestial Demon truly did not disappoint me!" Zhang Chen opened his eyes and couldn’t help but feel elated; the speed at which the Great Freedom Celestial Demon found the flaws was much quicker than anticipated.

Zhang Chen practiced the Escape Technique to arrive at the Blood Sea Array outside Jinling City, to find Gu Mingyue already leading Huang Chao and Zhao Lie waiting there.

Seeing Zhang Chen’s arrival, Gu Mingyue’s eyes lit up and quickly approached to ask, "How is it?"

"The flaw of the Twelve Primordial Stars Array has been found." Zhang Chen said.

"Good! We’ll break the array today." Gu Mingyue heard and was overjoyed, then looked toward Zhang Chen, "Zhang Chen, if we break the array today, I’ll owe you a favor. As long as you return Chengyu afterward, I can go to the Great Virtuous Master and plead for you, forgiving your sins."

Zhang Chen glanced at Gu Mingyue, saying nothing more because, to him, there was no benefit in speaking further.

"Next, we must discuss the process of breaking the array." Zhang Chen and Gu Mingyue discussed the array-breaking process, and once everything was settled, Zhang Chen smiled and said, "The process agreed upon, now it’s time to break the array. However, I have one concern, the millions of people in the city; how will your Yellow Heaven Dao handle them?"

Gu Mingyue said, "I practice the Incense Divine Dao and need the Power of Incense to support it, paying more attention to the population than you. Outside Jinling City flows a large river, connecting to the Yangtze River. Once I take action, instruct those people to jump into the water, I can transport them along the Yangtze River banks to settle."

Zhang Chen was secretly shocked upon hearing: "Divine Power, truly indescribable."

Though he mastered the Water Control Technique, even possessing the Eleventh Tier Sun True Flame, he couldn’t match the ability of a Divine Spirit.

"Fellow Daoist, please make a move and suppress that array," Gu Mingyue turned around and said to Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen nodded upon hearing this. The next instant, his figure flashed out of the Blood Sea Array, and he sensed the Great Freedom Celestial Demon. The next moment, with a stroke of the Celestial Measuring Ruler in his hand through the void, a spatial passage appeared. Zhang Chen dashed towards the Twelve Primordial Stars Array without hesitation.

Having cultivated into a Blood God Child, seemingly immortal, he was not afraid of the Great Freedom Celestial Demon betraying him.

As soon as Zhang Chen entered the Twelve Primordial Stars Array, he was sensed by the Demon God. Especially seeing Zhang Chen land at the node of the array, the feeling of unease in his heart intensified.

"Is my Daoist brother finally enlightened, wanting to cooperate with us to slay Gu Mingyue?" the Pleiades Chicken appeared before Zhang Chen. Around him, three more Demon Gods appeared, surrounding Zhang Chen with predatory eyes.

"The proposal from the Demon God yesterday, I did not find it good, so I chose to break open the Twelve Primordial Stars Array and use my strength to rush out," Zhang Chen said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the Pleiades Chicken’s pupils contracted: "Young lad, considering your young age, it’s not easy to achieve such skills. I advise you not to make a mistake. A Heaven and Earth Net is set up here. If you dare to make a move, you’ll only end up in ashes. Joining forces with us to kill Gu Mingyue is your only way out, you must think clearly."

Hearing the words of the Pleiades Chicken, Zhang Chen lightly chuckled, stretching out his hand, the Celestial Measuring Ruler slid from his sleeve, gripped in his palm. Then, Zhang Chen’s body filled with endless Innate Qi, infusing into the Celestial Measuring Ruler, the scales gradually lighting up, and the surrounding void began to twist.

"Take him down!" The Pleiades Chicken realized that something was wrong and quickly shouted at the other Demon Gods. All the Demon Gods cooperated, moving towards Zhang Chen.

"You all really look up to me," Zhang Chen slightly shook his head at this scene. With several Eleventh Tier Demon Gods making a move, he was certainly not their opponent at the moment, but Zhang Chen was still Zhang Chen. In an instant, he underwent Extreme Realm Ascension, as the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu fell into the River of Life Law, Zhang Chen instantly ascended to the Fruit Realm.

He chose not to attack a few Demon Gods because upgrading to the Fruit Realm would consume too much lifespan. Moreover, those Demon Gods had the array’s blessing, making it difficult to take them down.

Zhang Chen enhanced his cultivation merely to prevent himself from being killed by the opponent in one face-off and to withstand the pressure of the array, opening a channel.

The divine power flowed within Zhang Chen, the power of the Celestial Measuring Ruler twisted the void, and the suppressive power from the Demon Gods passed through the contorted void around Zhang Chen.

Then, the next moment, Zhang Chen used the Celestial Measuring Ruler in the direction of Jinling City, and the Twelve Primordial Stars Array twisted, forcibly torn open into a passage leading directly to Jinling City.

"Not good!"

Seeing this, the expressions of the Demon Gods drastically changed.

"Stop him quickly!" The Pleiades Chicken shouted, a beam of golden light shot from his pupils, but as it approached within three feet of Zhang Chen, it passed through the twisting void around him.

The power disparity between the Tenth and Eleventh Tiers is like the sky over the earth, and the gap between the Fruit Realm and the Twelfth Tier is even more significant, let alone with the current Eleventh Tier Demon Gods.

But they had the array’s power, Zhang Chen didn’t want to waste his precious lifespan targeting them.

Accompanying Zhang Chen’s breakthrough to the Fruit Realm, his strength increased significantly, and the power exerted by the Celestial Measuring Ruler in his hand dramatically changed.

Taking advantage of the flaw in the array’s operation, Zhang Chen directly used the Celestial Measuring Ruler to twist the array open.

Gu Mingyue, who had been waiting, saw the spatial passage appear and immediately summoned divine power, transporting twelve hundred disciples holding flagpoles into the Twelve Primordial Stars Array, beginning to use the array’s power to counteract the Twelve Primordial Stars.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen’s figure flashed back into the Blood Sea Array, while the Innate Jianmu flew out from Zhang Chen’s River of Life, having restored its original power.

"Disciples, follow me in operating the array, tear a channel through the Twelve Primordial Stars Array," Gu Mingyue’s roar echoed through Heaven and Earth.

"Stop dreaming! Fellow Daoists, quickly return to your positions and join me to operate the Twelve Primordial Stars Array to obliterate it!" The Pleiades Chicken, sensing danger, hurriedly summoned the other Demon Gods to return to their positions, intending to obliterate the Blood Sea Array.

As the two arrays collided, a destructive force erupted. Although the Blood Sea Array was not as powerful as the Twelve Primordial Stars Array, it had entered the Twelve Primordial Stars Array’s interior and planted itself at the crucial node, inhibiting its operation and causing it to function improperly.

In the next moment, as the Twelve Primordial Stars Array clashed with the Blood Sea Array, the Twelve Primordial Stars Array was gradually torn open, a mile-wide passage leading to the outside world.

"Damn it!" The Demon Gods were infuriated by this scene, immediately activating the array to begin the massacre.
