The warriors of the Barbaric Continent kept reciting the Myriad Buddhas War Scripture as they fought. The Golden Spring Sea grew wider and deeper, and golden springs kept appearing on its seabed.
Fang Chen continued absorbing the golden spring water. The golden figure behind him grew ever more solid, but so far, it had been no help to him in battle.
Time and again, the Blood Prison Demon Emperor's Blade Rays sent Fang Chen flying. Time and again, he returned. It was getting on the Blood Prison Demon Emperor's nerves.
