Chapter 671: The Innate Divine Appearance
Hearing Zhang Chen's question, the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon was speechless for a while: "Foolish boy! That's not energy gathering, it's clearly the true spirit of the Innate Water God reviving."

"The true spirit of the innate water god is entrusted to all the bloodlines of the Shen family. In order to avoid the calamity of heaven and earth, the innate water god asked himself to survive and hid his true spirit in the bloodlines of the Shen family. However, because his true spirit is too powerful, it can only be dispersed into the bloodlines of all the Shen family disciples. The more Shen family disciples are derived, the greater its dispersed power will be, the deeper it will be hidden, the more dispersed its power will be, and the easier it will be to avoid the scrutiny of heaven and earth. But now the Shen family has suffered a devastating disaster, and its hiding place is about to be overthrown by Huang Tiandao, and its true spirit is forced to run out to fight, so it allows the disciples of the Shen family to be slaughtered to help gather the power of its true spirit and sublimate it." The Great Freedom Demon explained to Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen's face turned pale when he heard this, and there was a hint of horror in his eyes: "No wonder the innate water god in the tomb only has a body but no soul. It turns out that in order to avoid the induction with the world, it separated the soul and the body, so that it can weaken its own strength and reduce the induction with the world. The tomb is just to preserve its body, and its soul is hidden in the blood of mortals. It is an incredible method to preserve it in this way!"

Zhang Chen got a glimpse of part of the truth, not only the truth about the Shen family, but also the truth about all the bloodline families in the world.

Just as countless thoughts were turning in Zhang Chen's mind, Shen Liang's energy was sublimated to the extreme, and after gathering enough soul essence, he stepped into the eleventh level.

"You ants dare to ruin my plan, you shall be killed!" Shen Liang was suspended in the void, with vast divine power flowing around him. The next moment, he stretched out his hand, which seemed to cover the entire void, shrouding an area of ​​dozens of miles and enveloping the entire Shen family battlefield.

The palm was aqua blue, and it was pregnant with a vast divine power, as if a heavy punishment from heaven had descended. Zhang Chen was shocked and said, "If he doesn't distinguish between enemies and me, he will slap everyone to death!"

The Great Immortal Huli grabbed Zhang Chen and Tushan Qing, turned into a ray of divine light, broke through the blockade of the palm, passed through the void suppressed by the palm, and escaped from the embrace of the big hand.

Zhou Qiucheng and Chen Zhifei of the White Lotus Sect were still covered by that palm. Chen Zhifei was only a ninth-rank strongman. Although he had the Xuanyuan Water Controlling Flag, the Xuanyuan Water Controlling Flag was mainly for defense, and its offensive power was much weaker. He could not escape the blockade of the eleventh-rank strongman.

At this time, a shadow flashed behind Zhou Qiucheng, and the shadow evolved into a pagoda. The pagoda exuded a powerful force of suppression, resisting the big handprint between heaven and earth: "Shen Liang! You can't commit such a murderous sin! There are still many innocent people in Jinling under your palm. I will never allow those people to die in your hands."

"No one can stop me!" Shen Liang's voice was strong and domineering.

Then a dazzling divine light rose up and a great battle broke out. Zhou Qiucheng and Chen Zhifei, who were covered by the palm, fought back together.

"That is the breath of the innate god! The Shen family actually has the reincarnation of the innate god? Could it be the true spirit of the innate water god? We have divided up the body of the innate water god, so let's run away quickly, otherwise the innate water god will come to our door!" Hu Li Daxian sensed that something was wrong. He had already guessed the origin of the innate god, and said to Zhang Chen and Tu Shanqing:
"Our main goal has been achieved. The next step is to hide and digest the background. Let's say goodbye now!"

The Great Immortal Huli did not want to form a cause and effect relationship with the innate sacred being. He clearly noticed that Shen Liang of the Shen family had become a different person, and his spirit, energy and vitality had been completely replaced by that of another person.

That is the true spirit of the innate water god. If it continues to revive, it will at least become a twelfth-level strongman.

Who could have thought that the true spirit of the innate water god would be reincarnated in the Shen family?

He doesn't want to go against the innate sacredness!
So after Huli Daxian finished speaking, he turned around and ran away without saying a word. He could not break through to the twelfth level in a short time, but as long as the bloodline of the Shen family continued to die, it would be a natural thing for the innate water god to recover the power of the twelfth level.

How can he compete then?
After Hu Li Daxian explained the interests involved to Zhang Chen, he added: "Tonight, the true spirit of the Xiantian Water God will surely recover to the twelfth level. By then, I will not be able to protect you. You should find a place to hide as soon as possible. Do not let the Xiantian Water God detect his flesh and blood. If he finds your whereabouts, do not summon me. I am definitely not his opponent! You should be quiet for a while and do not cause any trouble!"

After saying this, Great Immortal Huli turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the void, breaking through Huang Tiandao's formation and disappearing without a trace.

"Ancestor, please take me with you!!!" Tu Shan Qing saw the Great Immortal Hu Li running away and shouted after him, but there was no trace of the Great Immortal Hu Li.
Seeing that it was hopeless to rely on Huli Daxian, Tu Shanqing turned his head and looked at Zhang Chen: "Brother Zhang, what should we do? Being targeted by a twelfth-level strongman is likely to be a disaster! Once he finds our whereabouts, we will only end up dead."

Zhang Chen pondered for a moment after hearing this, then took out a Suppressing Character from his sleeve and handed it to Tu Shan Qing. The Suppressing Character was a power beyond the twelfth level, which could suppress all laws, magical powers, and auras.

“If you wear this talisman, you can conceal your destiny and fate. The Linglong Tower of Chongzheng Academy is an eleventh-level mystery with the power of suppression. Combined with my talisman, as long as the two of us are careful, we will not be found by the innate water god.” After Zhang Chen finished speaking, he turned around and ran away. He did not intend to interfere in the affairs of the Shen family. Although countless gods had fallen and the corpses of the gods made him excited, he still knew the seriousness of the matter. If he was targeted by the innate water god, he would have no means to fight back.

Zhang Chen didn't dare to continue to take advantage. Now the Xiantian Water God was bloodthirsty. That slap killed not only the people of the five major families, but also the children of the Shen family.

Now the other party was killing people without regard for their identities. Zhang Chen saw that things were not going well, so he used his escape technique to escape. Seeing this, Tu Shanqing hugged Zhang Chen's thigh directly, and then followed Zhang Chen back to Chongzheng Academy in a flash.

The two returned to Chongzheng Academy, and Zhang Chen showed up in front of Linglong Tower. At this time, Linglong Tower burst out with white light, illuminating the darkness before them.

A powerful repressive force spread out, covering the entire Chongzheng Academy, forcing Zhang Chen to be unable to use his escape technique, and his figure fell from the void.

At this time, countless students of Chongzheng Academy stood in front of the house, looking at the vast and intertwined divine light above Jinling City from afar, with a hint of excitement in their eyes.

Zhang Chen turned his head and saw that the dean Zhou Qiucheng had reached his utmost level and joined forces with the unlucky Chen Zhifei to fight against the innate water god. For a moment, three rays of blue, white and dark blue light intertwined in the night sky and collided violently. The Eight Gates Locking Gold Array that enveloped the sky above Jinling City was directly broken and torn to pieces by waves of terrifying energy aftermath.

The spirits of Huang Tiandao fled like a lost dog. How could they dare to plot against the tomb? Facing the terrifying divine light, who dared to stay where they were?

Huang Tiandao's eighth-level and ninth-level gods fled in panic, not even caring about Zhang Xiaohua.

At this time, the innate water spirit's energy became more and more powerful. Even though Zhou Qiucheng and Chen Zhifei joined forces, they still found it difficult to fight against it.

"Shen Liang, why don't you quickly retract your magical powers? Do you want to destroy the city of Jinling?" Zhou Qiucheng's voice spread across the night sky.

"You ants dare to offend me and ruin my plan. What does it matter even if you are destroyed?" Shen Liang's voice was full of indifference. There was a powerful divinity contained in it, and his human emotions had disappeared.

"No matter how powerful you are, can you be stronger than the three twelfth-level mysteries of the Dasheng Dynasty? If you cause heavy losses to Jinling City today, I am afraid that the Dasheng Dynasty will not forgive you. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, the Dasheng Dynasty will never let you go!" Zhou Qiucheng kept persuading.

"So what? Even if I can't defeat the mystery of the Dasheng Dynasty, if I want to escape, no one can stop me!" Shen Liang's voice was full of indifference.

He has already recovered to the eleventh level. If he doesn't want to fight to the death and just wants to escape, what does it matter even if he has the mystery of the twelfth level?

As the terrifying energy wave rolled up, the city of Jinling shook like an earthquake, and the Shen family, who was at the center of the earthquake, saw the ground begin to crack. The innate formation of the Shen family's ancestral tomb began to twist under the terrifying energy impact, and flaws appeared in the operation of the Shen family's innate formation.

"Ok?"

Just when the formation of the Shen family tomb was torn apart, the innate water god's expression suddenly changed. He could not even sense the existence of his own physical body, and the aura of his physical body seemed to have disappeared.

At this moment, he had an indescribable premonition, and an ominous feeling surged in his heart. He did not bother to get entangled with Zhou Qiucheng and Chen Zhifei. He saw his figure flash and flew directly into the tomb, then crossed the Weak Water and came to the altar. Looking at the hollowed-out altar, the moved coffin, the disappeared body, and the blood remaining on the ground, the Xiantian Water God felt his brain hot, his head buzzing, and he felt dizzy.

"Who did it! Who stole my body!" The innate water god roared miserably, like a wounded tiger. The sound waves spread throughout the entire Jinling City and spread to the distant sky and earth.

"Who stole my body! If you can't give me an explanation today, I will destroy the city of Jinling! I will make all the living beings in the city of Jinling be buried with me! Everyone must die!" The Xiantian Water God roared miserably, and the sound shook the sky. Layers of black clouds rolled up in the sky, and lightning shuttled through the clouds like a dragon.

A strong wind blew between heaven and earth, and the black clouds gathered quickly, becoming thicker and heavier, and pressing lower and lower. Countless lightning bolts struck down from the black clouds, and all living creatures wandering in the outside world became targets of the lightning.
