Chapter 1047

The transaction was completed, and everyone was happy. Zi Chen also successfully took away the two spirit weapons. The princess seemed to have great trust in him.

Of course, this was also because the princess was about to leave and return to the Devil Sect City.

"Princess, since you're here today, it's not appropriate to go back today. Why don't you stay here for a night and leave tomorrow? Since the transaction is completed, why don't we do a show?" Huo Di urged her to stay.

The princess looked at Huo Di.

"Just now, I noticed that the princess's guards were very unusual. Why don't we let the guards have a little competition and learn from each other? Since the servants have already gone to prepare the food, we can eat together after the competition."

"Yeah, even if it's a deal, it doesn't matter if it's a day or two." The people from the Sword Sect also said.

"Alright then."

The princess was about to refuse, but suddenly changed her mind. She asked, "You just said a guard competition."

Huo Di nodded, "Yes, a guard competition. If the princess is willing, we can place a small bet. Of course, if we win, it will be the guard's."

"Alright."

The princess agreed. During this time, she didn't look at Zi Chen, nor did she ask for his opinion.

"Who will go first?" The princess asked.

"Let's start with your guard. You and I will fight, and I will bet a Human-level Weapon." Huo Di said.

Seeing that the princess was about to agree, Zi Chen suddenly said, "Wait."

Everyone looked at the impolite Zi Chen. They all thought that this guard was too incompetent.

"Betting a Human-level Weapon is too boring. If we want to bet, let's bet a Spirit Weapon." As soon as Zi Chen spoke, everyone's expression immediately changed.

A Spirit Weapon was an extremely precious item. No one would be willing to take it out to bet, especially with a guard.

Zi Chen saw the changes in everyone's expression. He looked at Huo Di and said, "There's no need for a guard to compete with me. You and I will fight, and we will bet a Spirit Weapon."

"Hiss."

Gasps could be heard from all around. Everyone's expressions immediately changed. On one hand, they were sighing at the huge stakes this time. On the other hand, they felt that Zi Chen was overestimating himself. He actually dared to bet with a spirit body, and one that was one level higher than him.

Huo Di sneered and ridiculed, "You want me to use my Spirit Weapon as a wager? Then what can a mere guard like you use as a wager?"

Zi Chen was a straightforward person. He spread his hands and said, "Of course I don't have the money to gamble, but my princess does. Just take out three pieces of that black stone from before."

The moment Zi Chen's words left his mouth, everyone felt a sense of suffocation and an urge to vomit blood.

Black stone, who dared to say that it was a black stone?

Even the indifferent princess was rendered speechless by Zi Chen's words.

"Black rock? That's easy for you to say. Do you know what it is?" Huo Di said coldly.

"I don't know. I'd like to hear the details."

Huo Di's face showed a trace of disdain, "Idiot, that is the Brilliant Demon Crystal. Only the Demon Race can produce it, and it is extremely rare. One piece of Brilliant Demon Crystal can make a Spirit Weapon evolve into an Earth Spirit Weapon. How dare you say that it is a black stone?"

Zi Chen finally understood the function of the black stone. He was truly shocked by the effect of the Brilliant Demon Crystal.

Zi Chen's expression changed, and Huo Di saw it all. He asked with a mocking smile, "What? Do you still want to bet after knowing the value of the Brilliant Demon Crystal?"

Zi Chen turned around and looked at the princess. Her expression didn't change much. Zi Chen couldn't tell if she agreed or disagreed, but it didn't matter. He said directly, "Yes, why not?"

The others were in an uproar. Huo Di's face also showed a trace of surprise. Obviously, this person was still persisting. If he wasn't a fool, then he was confident. A Mid Stage Mortal Origin Realm cultivator naturally wouldn't be a fool. If he dared to bet, then he must be very confident.

Moreover, in that instant, the group of spirit bodies guessed that this was the queen's intentional arrangement. Therefore, he was much more vigilant and careful.

In fact, Huo Di didn't know that the princess was thinking more than him. She even guessed that Mo Chen's appearance was deliberately arranged by her brothers and sisters to set her up.

However, a series of changes occurred in her heart. The princess was still calm. She looked at Zi Chen and asked, "How are you going to bet?"

This sentence obviously meant that he agreed. This made the others even more surprised. They were sure that this was premeditated.

"Three attacks. Only defense is allowed, no attack is allowed. Whoever dies will lose." Zi Chen stared at Huo Di.

"What?"

Obviously, Zi Chen's battle rules were completely out of Huo Di's expectation. It also surprised the others. This was obviously a battle of life and death.

"One of us will attack, but we are only allowed to attack three times. If the other dies, we lose," Zi Chen explained again.

Huo Di's face changed, and asked, "What about cultivation level?"

"It doesn't matter about cultivation level. Only attack and defense. If you want, I can attack you three times. If you die, then I naturally win. If you live, then I lose. If you attack, then it's the same." Zi Chen explained again.

"What a strange battle."

"What a deep scheme. This is to force Huo Di to attack. It seems that he is very confident in his defense."

The others all had their own thoughts.

The princess looked at Zi Chen. She suddenly realized that she couldn't see through this Mo Chen. Originally, she thought that he was a lucky guy who had extremely pure demon power. But now, it seemed that he had other secrets.

"Princess, what do you think?" Huo Di's eyes fell on the princess, asking for her opinion.

The princess thought for a moment and said, "I have to admit that this is the strangest way of battle I have ever seen. But I am also very curious. If you don't have any opinion, then we can start."

"Then you agree, princess."

The princess's hand flashed, and three more Brilliant Demon Crystals appeared. She said, "This is the bet."

"Okay, let's bet." Huo Di shouted.

"How do you choose?" Zi Chen asked.

"Boy, don't play tricks in front of me, and don't force me. I naturally choose the attacking side," Huo Di said disdainfully.

"Well, for three attacks, I will only defend."

As soon as Zi Chen finished speaking, he urged the blood and qi in his body to form a demon power defense on the surface of his body.

The crowd dispersed, leaving the battlefield to the two. Huo Di was straightforward. After asking Zi Chen a question and getting an affirmative answer, he launched an attack.

A flaming palm print, exuding blazing heat, fell on Zi Chen's chest. The flame energy and demon power were entangled and collided. After a breath, the demon power defense was broken, and the attack hit Zi Chen's chest, sending him flying.

Zi Chen flew a full five meters backward, and when he landed, he retreated another three meters. The blood and qi in his body boiled, but he forcibly suppressed it and said, "Two more attacks."

Around, no one spoke. Being able to block the first attack was naturally within expectations.

Huo Di snorted and said, "I only used 15% of my strength."

Zi Chen responded, "Then use 655% of your strength next time."

The princess stared at Zi Chen, but Zi Chen looked very calm. Behind this calmness was a strong confidence that he would win.

"Go to hell."

Killing intent flashed in Huo Di's eyes as he clenched his fist. His entire fist burned with flames.

This punch of his tore through space and struck directly at Zi Chen.

Peng!

The second magic power armor formed around Zi Chen was instantly shattered. Powerful forces entered his body and began to destroy Zi Chen, wanting to kill him.

Inside Zi Chen's body, the Perfect Body began to exert strength, dispelling the external forces one after another. As he didn't dare expose himself, Zi Chen held back.

Pfft.

His body kept retreating until he reached the door. His face flushed red and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. Then, his face turned pale.

Zi Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and grinned sinisterly. "This is 655% strength. It's nothing much."

Everyone was completely moved.

Despite being a realm lower than a spirit body, he was still able to withstand two strikes. This was truly extraordinary. Just this point alone made their guards far inferior to him.

"What a strong defense. As expected of the Power Demon Lineage, which is known for its strength."

"Yes, the Power Demon Lineage has extraordinary strength. Unfortunately, if he was in the late stage of the Human Origin Realm, he might be able to withstand three strikes from Huo Di. However, with a realm difference, no matter how strong his defense is, he will definitely die under Huo Di's third strike."

Zi Chen had blocked two of the attacks, but the others were still confident in Huo Di. After all, Huo Di was a spirit body, an undefeatable and invincible spirit body. With a difference of one Realm, he could even kill a spirit body, let alone a mere Power Demon.

"Blazing Heart Piercing Fist."

Huo Di roared and struck out a third strike. The hall was completely filled with flames as an extremely powerful and violent aura appeared.

Huo Di's fist had completely turned into flames. The flames seemed to have a soul and became extremely terrifying.

The flames rose and went straight for Zi Chen's heart. As the name suggested, it was going to pierce through the heart.

Huo Di was very confident in this strike.

"Bang!"

Before the fist arrived, the demonic armor on Zi Chen's body exploded. Inside Zi Chen's body, the golden blood began to circulate. Strands of energy formed a defense inside his body.

"Boom!"

The fist landed squarely on Zi Chen's chest. The endless flames engulfed Zi Chen. At the same time, the powerful force also sent Zi Chen flying.

Zi Chen, who was sent flying, heavily smashed into the closed door, triggering the seal there. With a flash of fire, Zi Chen was once again sent flying. He fell to the ground and rolled a few times.

Everyone's eyes widened as they stared at Zi Chen. They wanted to see if Zi Chen was still alive.

However, the flames were still burning and they couldn't hear Zi Chen's screams. They couldn't tell if Zi Chen was still alive or not.

"This strike will definitely pierce through his heart and destroy his soul. He won't be able to survive." Huo Di was very confident in this strike.

The Princess's calm face revealed a trace of nervousness. She wasn't nervous about winning or losing, but about Zi Chen. Obviously, this was a demon with great potential. It would be a pity if he died like this.

The flames on Zi Chen's body slowly dissipated, revealing a pitch-black body. It was just that a moment ago, it was the original black of a demon, but now it was charred black.

"He's dead, right? He's burned like this."
