I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 1013 Massacre
Zhang Chen not only harbored murderous intent towards the Wang family in Jinling City, but also towards the demonic beasts within the city.

I'm so glad I met him today, otherwise my son would have been dead.

When has Zhang Chen ever suffered a loss?

We absolutely cannot afford to suffer even the slightest loss!
Looking at the boy's pale face, Zhang Chen's eyes flashed with a sinister light: "Do you want revenge?"

The young man stared at Zhang Chen for a while before lowering his head and saying, "Never mind, they're not easy to mess with. I'm already lucky to be alive. I can't cause you any trouble."

“You do know your limits.” Zhang Chen looked at the dim-eyed young man and reached out to stroke his head. “Don’t worry, watch how your godfather avenges you. They’re just some beasts and human traitors. I’ve never taken them seriously.”

Zhang Chen wanted to unleash a Purple Heaven Divine Thunder to turn Jinling City into ruins and kill all the demonic beasts in the city. However, after thinking it over, he realized that if he let his opponent die directly, it would be too easy for them and would not bring out the joy of revenge. He should slowly wear them down and let them die in despair. Only in this way could he bring out the joy of revenge.

As for how to kill the other party?
Zhang Chen had already made up his mind. He turned his gaze to his own cheat system interface, focusing on the Blood Path's skills:

[Skill 3 (Tier 12): Blood Realm (0/200000000000000000000)]

[Note 1: The host can transform into a river of blood, absorbing all the blood within a thousand miles and drawing in the souls of the dead from a hundred miles away, thus guiding the blood and souls of the mortal world into the sea of ​​blood more quickly.]

[Note 2: The number of Blood God Children increases with level, currently there are ten Blood God Children.] Blood control, remote blood absorption, limb regeneration, ultrasound positioning, body transformation into blood light (ten), blood poison and filth, blood control, blood influence (within a kilometer), body transformation into a blood river, mastery of sound wave laws (a thousand miles), Blood Sea Asura (not exceeding one's own level).

[Note 1: You have acquired the skill "Harmony with the Dao"]

[Note 2: You have acquired the skill Bloodline Descendant]

[Note 3: You have acquired the skill Blood Realm]

Breaking through to the twelfth level of the Blood Path skill requires an enormous amount of experience points, but for Zhang Chen, it's nothing. You have to understand that the Immortal Peach blossoms once every three thousand years, bears fruit once every three thousand years, and ripens once every three thousand years. It only takes nine thousand years to grow a tree full of Immortal Peaches. Zhang Chen can accelerate growth for one hundred and eighty years every day, which is one thousand eight hundred years in ten days, eighteen thousand in one hundred days, and three months is enough for the Immortal Peaches to ripen twice.

From the time Zhang Chen planted the peach trees in his inner world until today, countless millennia have passed. The three peach trees within have long since evolved into a three-thousand-mile-long peach blossom forest, with three thousand three-thousand-year-old, six-thousand-year-old, and nine-thousand-year-old peach trees. Countless batches of peaches have ripened within. Zhang Chen has accumulated layer upon layer of foundation. Although the points required for the Blood Path are numerous, they are nothing to Zhang Chen at this moment.

As for the Blood Path skill breaking through from the twelfth level to the Fruit Realm, which would cause Zhang Chen's source energy to drain out even faster, Zhang Chen no longer cared. He was already like a leaky vat, with his essence and source energy leaking out every moment. Did he still care about the size of the leak in his body?

Moreover, he already possesses the Heaven-Reaching Jianmu, and given the current state of the world, he feels that replenishing his innate energy by drawing upon his own body is not a difficult task for him.

Originally, Zhang Chen's plan was to upgrade the skill that accelerates the power of time, but things have come to this point, and time acceleration is not so urgent for Zhang Chen at the moment. It would be better to upgrade the Blood Path skill first and then slaughter Jinling City.

Of course, do you think Zhang Chen massacred Jinling City just to avenge the prince?
That's not entirely true. In the future, the world will undergo great changes, and the North will be surrounded by the demon race and the Yellow Heaven Path. It will inevitably be coveted by various forces. If the North wants to pass through the most turbulent period peacefully, Zhang Chen must show his thunderous methods and suppress all sides with a strong and ruthless hand, so that the world knows his power and will naturally not dare to offend him.

As for methods of killing, especially large-scale killing methods, the Blood Path Divine Power is the most prominent.

With a thought in his mind, Zhang Chen lightly tapped the Golden Finger interface. The next moment, the Golden Finger interface jumped, indicating that the upgrade was complete and his Blood Path skill had broken through to the Law level, which is the realm of a Celestial Immortal.

【New Feature 1: Blood God Children Break Free of Restraint, Unlimited Quantity】

【New Feature 2: Asura's Descent】

The first characteristic goes without saying: having cultivated to this point, the number of Blood God Children has been broken, and there is no longer any limit to the number. Zhang Chen can be said to have an inexhaustible Blood Sea, and he is immortal and indestructible. Every drop of blood in the Blood Sea is his Blood God Child.

As for the second characteristic, not only can Asuras be born from the Blood Sea, but they can also be summoned to descend upon the world. The Blood Sea Asuras are immortal and indestructible; unless they are completely obliterated, the Asuras are arguably the most troublesome enemies in the world.

As his skills were upgraded, Zhang Chen's experience points were cleared again. At this moment, the power of blood dao within Zhang Chen surged, and a vast and boundless power rose up. However, the primordial energy pouring out from Zhang Chen's body was more than ten times faster.

“In less than three years, my cultivation will be completely lost. However, for me, as long as I destroy Jinling City, I can dominate the world and bring complete peace to the North. Before the great calamity is completely over, no one will dare to offend me, nor will anyone dare to invade the North. It can be said that I have bought the North a great chance to breathe.” Zhang Chen took a breath, feeling the immortal essence emanating from his body. A trace of regret appeared in his eyes. Then he took the young man’s hand and walked out of the cabin: “Come with me.”

The two arrived outside the cabin and watched the slaves and demon beasts coming and going. Zhang Chen waved to the steward, who eagerly approached and bowed obsequiously, "Sir, what are your orders?"

"Let me ask you, how long will it take for the ship's supplies to be fully replenished?" Zhang Chen asked slowly.

The steward stared at Zhang Chen, feeling for some reason that Zhang Chen was different from before. A strange pressure and fear welled up in his heart, as if he had encountered his natural enemy before he became a demon and before he had developed his intelligence.

The steward dared not think too much and quickly bowed respectfully, saying, "Reporting to Your Excellency, it will take another three days."

"Three days? That's too long. I'll only give you one day!" Zhang Chen said firmly.

Upon hearing Zhang Chen's words, the demon clan steward hesitated for a moment before saying, "Then one day! This matter is not difficult; it's just a matter of sending more manpower. I guarantee I'll handle it perfectly for you."

The steward hurriedly went to the ship to gather men. Zhang Chen led the young man to the deck. Looking at the surging river and the crowds of people on the banks, he pondered how to make his move to maximize its deterrent effect. At the same time, he secretly comprehended and adapted to the power of the Blood Sea Dao.

The young man beside Zhang Chen looked at the numb slaves on the shore, being driven and whipped by the monsters like cattle and horses. A look of emotion appeared in his eyes. In just a few hours, his life had changed drastically, and he was no longer a normal person.

"Father, thank you for saving me from this misery," the young man said, deeply moved.

Zhang Chen patted the boy's head: "You're already calling me Dad, why are you still being so polite with me?"

At this point, Zhang Chen instructed the guard beside him, "Go and bring the man's body here."

A guard obeyed the order and left. Before long, the man who had been beaten to death by the monster was brought to Zhang Chen's side.

Looking at the mangled corpse, Wang Ye's whole body trembled uncontrollably, and tears blurred his vision. He wanted to shout out, but when he thought that he had already recognized a new 'father,' he was afraid that if he called someone else 'father,' his current father would be unhappy. So he just rushed over and silently shed tears while looking at the mangled corpse.

"Don't cry. It's just death, nothing serious. Watch my methods." Zhang Chen stepped in front of the man, gesturing for the young man to step aside. The next moment, the Three Lights Divine Water flashed at his fingertips and dripped into the man's body. The man's injuries were repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just three breaths, his entire body was completely repaired. Then, the man's chest, which had seemed dead, rose and fell gently. As his heartbeat grew louder, his breathing returned to its rhythm.

"This? A miraculous resurrection?" The young man was stunned by the sight, then suddenly rushed over and hugged the man's chest, unable to suppress his emotions any longer, and cried out: "Father!"
For him, the middle-aged man was the only warmth he received on his journey as abducted, and the first person to treat him kindly after his misfortune. He was of utmost importance to him.

Zhang Chen felt uneasy hearing his son call someone else "Dad," and immediately turned and went into the cabin.

At this moment, Zhang Chen's act of bringing someone back to life immediately alarmed everyone on the deck. Everyone had clearly seen the middle-aged man being beaten to death, but now his heartbeat had returned.

So they all crowded around, watching with expressions of shock.

"He really came back to life? He actually has such abilities?" Zhou Qiucheng stepped forward, looking at the man who had regained his breathing, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"I've lived for decades, and today I've truly seen something amazing. I never imagined that the legendary resurrection actually exists. I've only ever heard of it in legends, but I've never actually seen anyone come back to life." Zhong Wubai also plucked a beard hair.
