The Elf Dragon Knights in the sky also noticed the situation and began to roar as they dive-bombed downward.

Jiang Chen felt the Giant Dragons' dive.

Sword Qi shot up into the sky. More than a dozen Giant Dragons plummeted into the river, sending up huge splashes. Jiang Chen quickly advanced toward the Barrier.

「City of Blazing Light.」

The Elf Race experts watched the dark shadow rush toward them.

"This is not an expert from our Elf Race."

"Turning him into one of us is the best choice."

"Such a powerful class, just right for us."

"Does he really think he can attack by himself? Unfortunately, the City of Blazing Light has a powerful Barrier; he simply can't get in."

Jiang Chen stood next to the Barrier as the Nano Insects wriggled on his body, consuming the Barrier Power bit by bit. The Barrier, being an energy form, could be devoured by the Nano Insects.

Feeling millions of Nano Insects consuming the Barrier, it soon developed a small breach, the size of a grain of rice. More and more breaches appeared over time.

The breaches gradually enlarged, eventually forming a massive gap.

Jiang Chen did not hesitate to slip through.

By then, the Nano Insects had formed a human figure, which said, "If we are no match for them, make a full retreat."

Jiang Chen nodded and dashed towards the City of Blazing Light at high speed.

At that moment, countless Different Evil World Demons leaped from the city walls, charging straight at Jiang Chen. Sword Qi swept out in all directions, slaughtering the various Different Evil World Demons. Within a five-hundred-meter radius, not a single enemy remained.

Lisa exclaimed, "He really managed to fight his way in all by himself!"

"Of course he did."

"That's our younger brother, the Swordsman who single-handedly slew a million-strong army."

"I wonder how many Different Evil World Demons are in the City of Blazing Light. If there are too few, it won't be enough experience for him to level up!"

"Are we holding him back?"

"It seems so. When will we ever be like Jiang Qiu!"

The battle was exceptionally brutal, leaving countless corpses littering the ground.

Jiang Chen unfurled his Wings.

He quickly flew high into the air, seizing control of the city walls. Looking down at the hundreds of thousands of Different Evil World Demons and Elves, Jiang Chen smiled.

This wave of experience points is truly bountiful!

What does wielding thirty thousand sword qi even mean?

Engaging in a frenzied slaughter within the city, he took down an enemy every second. After a mere dozen seconds or so, hundreds of thousands of warriors had already fallen.

Only that short amount of time had passed, yet the entire city was already strewn with corpses.

There wasn't even space to stand. Fortunately, there were no exceptionally powerful experts here—only Elves who had been devoured by Parasitic Beasts, along with some Different Evil World Demons that had entered from an ancient part of the Different Worlds.

At this point, Jiang Chen also sensed the fluctuations from the rift.

In the center of the City of Blazing Light stood a huge building. Inside was an altar from which countless Different Evil World Demons were emerging.

They were met by Sword Qi.

Standing on the city wall, Jiang Chen waved to Jiang Qiu and the others.

Jiang Qiu led them into the City of Blazing Light.

Lisa was utterly shocked when she saw the ground covered in bodies. Corpses, nothing but corpses. There wasn't even a place to step. Jiang Qiu released her own Nano Insects, which devoured the surrounding bodies.

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Hmm, these Nano Insects are pretty good for cleaning up the battlefield."

Jiang Qiu rolled her eyes. I am a powerful Ancient Class, you know! Clean up the battlefield for you? In your dreams! This is about continuously dividing my Nano Insects. There are hundreds of thousands of Elf Race warriors here—more than enough for my Nano Insects to multiply into countless more.

Lisa quickly took out a Rune and contacted her mother.

"Mother, the City of Blazing Light has been recaptured. Please dispatch the army to take over immediately."

"Weren't you going to Caesar City? How did you end up in the enemy's stronghold?"

"After recapturing Caesar City, we went ahead and recaptured the City of Blazing Light too."

Lisa ended the Rune communication.

The group entered the interior of the altar.

The interior of the altar was filled with countless Magical Runes. Unfortunately, the surrounding Magical Runes were completely destroyed. In the center of the altar lay a huge rift.

That was the entrance to the Different Worlds.

Jiang Chen asked, "Where is the Spiritual Pearl?"

"It's no longer in the Elven World. I suspect it's in the Different Worlds."

"What exactly is a Spiritual Pearl?"

"It provides the energy for a massive Magical Array. This sealing Magical Array requires an immense amount of energy to sustain it, and the Spiritual Pearl is the best source for that."

"Such Spiritual Pearls are rare; there's only one in the Elven World."

"If the Spiritual Pearl isn't retrieved, we can only rely on members of the Elf Race to continuously output energy. This would require 100,000 of our people to maintain the output daily. Such a Magic Seal can prevent even seventh-stage experts from entering the Elven World," Lisa explained.

Jiang Chen now understood. The Spiritual Pearl was essentially a Magical Spring.

Without the Spiritual Pearl, even inscribing Magical Runes would be useless.

While they were discussing this, a dozen or so members of the Elf Race's Royal Family arrived, riding Giant Dragons. They were all Teleporters, capable of constructing Magic Teleportation Arrays. Once an array was established, a continuous stream of soldiers would arrive.

After a brief period of chanting, they constructed the Magic Teleportation Array.

Elf Race soldiers continuously entered Flame City.

"Your Highness, 100,000 soldiers have assembled."

"Guard Flame City closely! We absolutely cannot let the enemy escape through the rift!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Lisa looked at Jiang Chen. "Jiang Chen, the Elf Race still needs your help. I want you to accompany me into the rift to search for the Spiritual Pearl, which we need to seal the rift."

Jiang Chen coughed. "It's very dangerous inside that rift."

"I know it's dangerous, but for the sake of the Elf Race, I must take this risk."

You're the one taking the risk, what has that got to do with me?!

Are you expecting me to accompany you on this perilous journey?

Princess, you must have misunderstood something.

Benefits! Where are the benefits?! Give me benefits, and I'll go.

Commander Jack glanced at Jiang Chen and reminded her, "Your Highness, I recall there's a Swordsman Skill Book in the palace. It's said to be a Legendary-level skill."

Lisa looked puzzled. "Is there? How come I don't know about it?"

"Yes, there is. I've heard the Queen mention it."

Lisa seemed to understand. Turning to Jiang Chen, she said, "Regardless of whether we can retrieve the Spiritual Pearl, I will give you that book."

Jiang Chen declared righteously, "For the Alliance of All-Gods and for the Elven World, I am willing to brave the danger!"

Jiang Qiu and the others couldn't help but smile.

Lisa, however, looked at him disdainfully.

Hmph, so it was all about the reward after all.

What happened to your professional ethics? Where did they go?

Lisa used the Teleportation Array to return to the palace. She immediately went to see her mother to ask about that Legendary-level Skill Book.

The Elf Queen nodded. "Indeed, there is one."

"Mother, please give me that book. I want to give it to Jiang Chen as his reward."

"The Human Race is greedy. You could very well have him search for the Spiritual Pearl first and then give it to him; it wouldn't be too late."

"He helped our Elf Race regain control of Flame City. Whether or not he can find the Spiritual Pearl, I will give this to him. Besides, if I give it to him now, won't we have an even better chance of finding the Spiritual Pearl?"

The Queen praised, "You've grown up."

The Queen gave the order, and soon someone brought the Skill Book.

Lisa took the Skill Book back to Flame City.

[Mysterious Heavenly Finger: Contains the power of The Fallen. When killing an enemy, it can unleash a True Qi Attack from The Fallen, striking the enemy's soul...]

Jiang Chen stared at the Skill Book, completely astonished.

The very first sentence left Jiang Chen utterly stunned.

Contains the power of The Fallen?

How is that possible?
