Chapter 638: Bad Luck
Seeing the axe, Jiang Chen was immediately disappointed.
He picked it up and weighed it to make sure it could bear the weight.
Then Jiang Chen raised the axe and smashed it hard on the agarwood.
Bang--
Jiang Chen's arm trembled.
The axe blade made a crisp sound when it hit the agarwood.
But the agarwood did not move at all.
"This stone is really hard... huh?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen's eyes widened in surprise.
He twisted his wrist and struck again.
The agarwood finally shook.
Jiang Chen smiled.
But soon, he frowned.
He found that the axe handle was bent and seemed to be breaking!
"Is this axe broken?"
Jiang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He looked at the curled axe in his hand and couldn't help but feel conflicted.
If I didn't have this axe, today's wood-chopping mission would probably be a failure.
"Why is my luck so bad!"
"No, we have to find another tool."
"I just don't believe it!"
Finally Jiang Chen decided to chop wood first.
At least make sure today's work is completed smoothly.
Jiang Chen threw the axe aside.
Then he lifted up a huge tree.
He lifted the trunk onto his shoulders.
“Huff~Huff~”
Taking two deep breaths, Jiang Chen clenched his teeth.
He raised the axe high and chopped it down at the agarwood.
There was a loud bang and the ground shook.
A crack was split in the agarwood.
“Haha, it’s true!”
Looking at this scene, Jiang Chen couldn't help but burst out laughing.
He put the axe back in its place.
Then he picked up the axe and continued to fight.
“Crack—”
A soft sound was heard.
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment and looked down at the axe.
"broken?"
He tried again in disbelief, but the axe handle was still bent.
Jiang Chen's face suddenly fell, and he wanted to cry but had no tears.
Now, I’m going to fail again today!
"Forget it, let's cut down this tree first."
Looking at the tree, Jiang Chen had no choice but to give up chopping wood.
He swung the axe and uprooted the tree.
He was panting with exhaustion.
Although this tree is not as big as the other trees, it is also quite large.
Jiang Chen carried it to the foot of the mountain in one breath.
Stick the axe in the ground.
He collapsed to the ground, sweating profusely.
Jiang Chen lay on the ground wailing.
Suddenly, melodious piano sounds came from afar.
The sound of the piano is graceful and beautiful, like a stream flowing by your ears.
Jiang Chen looked up and saw a bamboo forest in front of him.
It is the end of spring and the beginning of summer, with lush green bamboos, singing birds and fragrant flowers.
In the middle of the bamboo forest, there is a quaint and elegant pavilion.
"Is this played by the Emperor?"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but look at that place with longing, wishing he could rush over.
"As expected of a princess, she can even play the piano so beautifully."
Jiang Chen said appreciatively.
"Yes, the spiritual energy of this world is very rich."
"My training speed has increased by more than double."
Black Nightmare's excited voice came.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes.
This world actually has such a powerful effect?
It seems that he made the right trip.
After resting for a while, Jiang Chen slowly walked towards the bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest was not dense. After walking for a while, we could see a house inside.
A plaque was erected at the door of the room, with three large characters written in a flamboyant style: Piano Room.
"Go in and take a look."
Jiang Chen pushed the door open and walked in, only to see that the small room was empty except for a guzheng and an antique table.
"Why is there nothing here?"
Jiang Chen said in surprise.
“There’s nothing good about this kind of place.”
Heiyan said lightly.
"But this place is very suitable for a human like you."
Jiang Chen curled his lips.
He walked around the room for a few times and suddenly saw a portrait on the wall.
He looked carefully and saw that the portrait was of a beautiful girl in green.
"Hey, is this the Emperor Princess?"
Jiang Chen asked doubtfully.
The portrait is so lifelike that it seems alive.
"Since there is a portrait of the princess here, it must be a place where the princess has stayed."
Jiang Chen's eyes flickered.
"etc!"
Just when Jiang Chen was about to check if there were any traps around, his pupils suddenly contracted.
Because he found that there were several rings next to the portrait of the princess!
"This is……"
Jiang Chen hurried over.
He couldn't wait to put on one of the rings.
Buzz buzz buzz.
As he thought about it, a small and exquisite bracelet appeared on each of his left and right hands.
The bracelet is emerald green all over and exudes a lustrous luster, just like jadeite.
In addition, he also felt another warm force surging into his body, which made the pores all over his body relax and made him feel indescribably comfortable.
"Good baby!"
Jiang Chen couldn't let it go.
"I've seen this kind of ring before."
Black Nightmare said, "I remember it was some magical tool of the God Clan. It has the function of storage and is very versatile."
"oh?"
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned.
"Look at your left hand." Hei Yan said again.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen looked over.
On the back of his left hand, there is a golden lotus mark hidden under the skin.
Moreover, he found that the color of his blood became much lighter, turning into a dark red with a strange smell.
"What is this mark?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"Emperor Lotus."
"Emperor Lotus?" Jiang Chen was stunned.
"The Emperor Lotus is a treasure that contains tremendous imperial energy." Hei Yan explained slowly.
"Emperor's Qi?"
Jiang Chen was shocked.
It is said that every Immortal King embodies a huge amount of imperial energy and can be called the emperor among Immortal Kings.
"You can only use a little bit now. When you are strong enough in the future, you can condense the imperial energy yourself."
Black Nightmare said: "If you can get more emperor energy, maybe you can condense a drop of true emperor blood."
"True Emperor Blood?"
Jiang Chen became excited.
Black Nightmare said: "This requires your own efforts. It is extremely difficult to condense the True Emperor's blood."
Logically speaking, the true essence should have been condensed.
However, Jiang Chen's Dantian was empty, and there was not a single ripple in his true energy.
Jiang Chen shook his head and sighed.
He had long known that too thin true Qi would make it difficult to condense the imperial Qi.
"You'd better find a way to improve your realm as soon as possible." Hei Yan urged.
"Um."
Jiang Chen nodded seriously.
"By the way, what is the function of the Emperor Lotus?"
Jiang Chen asked, after all, this is a treasure.
"It can increase the imperial energy." Hei Yan said, "but the quantity is too small."
"We are going to practice here for a few days this time, so we might as well make use of the power of the Emperor Lotus."
"I see."
Jiang Chen nodded.
He reached out and touched the lotus mark on the back of his hand, his eyes sparkling.
He had never wanted power so much.
…
Night falls.
Jiang Chen sat in the courtyard, holding a stone slab in his hand.
The stone slab was taken from Black Nightmare. It is extremely hard and cannot be cut by swords or knives.
"here we go!"
Jiang Chen closed his eyes tightly, clenched his fingers like an orchid, and strands of true energy emerged from his palms and merged into the stone slab.
The true energy in his body became more and more abundant, gradually turning into a full moon, floating above his head, emitting a soft and cold light.
"Condensate for me!"
Jiang Chen shouted loudly and made hand gestures.
Boom!
The moon suddenly exploded.
