Sovereign of the Heaven - C220
“I fed you an elemental elixir, how can you still move?”
He Shao looked at Di Chen in disbelief. He was afraid that Di Chen would take advantage of him refining the Pearl of Life, which was why he had given the pill to to eat.
Di Chen said playfully: “This is all thanks to you using it to roast me, helping me to refine all the medicinal powers of the pellets. You extracted the power of the Pearl of Life, but at the same time, helped me to refine the pellets, which can be considered a blessing in disguise for me, for losing the power of the Pearl of Life, but your strength has increased.”
He Shao suddenly remembered that when Di Chen came out of the cauldron, his entire body was ice-cold. The cauldron was not hot at all, but because he was too excited to obtain the Pearl of Life, he did not think too much about it.
“So what? Do you really think you can kill me if you’re a bit stronger?”
He Shao pointed at the Heavenly Demonic Wolf and sneered: “You should kill this Heavenly Demonic Wolf first.”
Then he looked at the Heavenly Demonic Wolf and ordered: “Swallow him.”
The Heavenly Demonic Wolf roared and pounced towards Di Chen.
Di Chen’s right hand clenched into a fist, and punched the Heavenly Demonic Wolf, the powerful force striking the Heavenly Demonic Wolf, causing it to fly out and smash into the wall heavily. A rock fell onto the ground, and the Heavenly Demonic Wolf died on the spot.
From the outside, the Heavenly Demonic Wolf only seemed to have been beaten to death by a strong power, but in reality, the inner organs of the Heavenly Demonic Wolf had all been burnt into ashes, which was also why Di Chen had fused the heat from the cauldron into his body. Previously, Di Chen did not completely understand what was going on, but after thinking about it, he realized that it was definitely because he had refined the inner core of the Ten Thousand Swords Gate’s guardian demonic beast.
“What?” He Shao was shocked, he had previously witnessed the battle between Di Chen and the Heavenly Demonic Wolf and felt great difficulty in dealing with them, but now, he actually killed the Heavenly Demonic Wolf with a single punch?
Di Chen laughed: “First of all, I have to thank you. I have already broken through the eighth stage of the Fighter realm, only, my realm is not stable, my strength is not strong enough, but it’s thanks to you that my strength increased by a level.”
Although Di Chen’s strength had increased, in reality, without the presence of Pearl of Life, Di Chen was no longer able to absorb more Demonic beast flesh and blood, and his strength had no way of increasing, so he still had to snatch back the Pearl of Life.
“Di Chen, if you dare to touch our He family, we will not let you go.”
He Shao was still refining the Pearl of Life and could not move at all, so he could only threaten Di Chen like this.
Di Chen said with a face full of ridicule: “You stole my Pearl of Life and even want to steal my martial spirit of light, you never would have let me off, tell me, why should I spare you?”
“You …” He Shao was so angry that he could not speak, and stared coldly at Di Chen.
Di Chen was too lazy to say more. Stepping forward, he smashed his fist fiercely onto He Shao’s chest.
He Shao was only ordinary flesh and blood body, so naturally, he could not endure being hit by Di Chen’s direct attack without any resistance. After spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, he stopped’s cultivation, causing the Pearl of Life’s energy to drain out of his body and condense back into a bead.
“Di Chen, I’ll kill you,” He Shao roared, but just as he moved his body, he immediately felt excruciating pain. However, as a Martial Monarch Level user, it was not easy to be killed, so he endured the pain as he stood up and threw a punch at Di Chen.
“Explode!” Di Chen immediately took out a slip of paper with the word “explode” written on it. After the pills in his body were refined, Di Chen could use the power of a scholar again.
BOOM!
He Shao was also affected by the energy and was sent flying. However, compared to He Shao, his condition was much better, it was just that he did not have the power to resist right now, and compared to He Shao, who was using his Martial Monarch Level, he did not have any strength to fight back.
“Dammit,” He Shao propped himself up using the ground as support, gritted his teeth and said: “You actually injured me so badly, I’ll kill you.”
With that, he rushed towards Di Chen, but this time, Di Chen did not have the strength to fight anymore.
Di Chen laughed bitterly, he knew that it would be difficult to kill He Shao while he was refining the Pearl of Life but he had no choice, he only had this chance.
Just as He Shao was about to rush over, a man suddenly stood in front of Di Chen, with a wave of his hand, a gust of wind blew He Shao away, and smashed him heavily onto the ground.
“Who?” He Shao looked at the person who came over angrily. He had seen this person before.
“It’s you,” Di Chen said in a daze. When he saw You Qin and the others at Shuiyue Workshop, he remembered that this man was one of them.
Just then, You Qin and the rest walked in, You Xiang walked to Di Chen’s side and helped him up, smiling: “What do you think?”
He never thought that they would all be here, yet You Qin was smiling, but he was unhappy.
Di Chen shook his head: “I’m fine, just a little injured, and can recover after taking a few pills. Why are you guys here?”
You Xiang smiled mysteriously: It was a while ago when I saw you with him, so I followed you guys, but I never expected to see such a good show.
Di Chen frowned, which meant that during this period of time, they had been watching him being tormented by He Shao?
Although he was slightly angry, Di Chen did not say anything. After all, they were not related to Di Chen in any way, and there was no reason for them to save him.
You Xiang also noticed that Di Chen seemed to be angry, and laughed: “Actually, we also know that you almost lost your life before, but I believed that you would be fine, so we weren’t in a rush to attack. I didn’t expect you to be so powerful, to actually be able to injure a Martial King, I can’t see through you anymore.”
Di Chen had swallowed a lot of poison pills and was on the verge of death. Furthermore, he had been refined in the cauldron for a period of time, but in the end, Di Chen’s strength became even stronger and the effects of the poison pills also disappeared. You Xiang could not help but be shocked.
“This has nothing to do with you, hurry up and get out of my sight.”
He Shao said coldly: “I know you guys also have enmity with Di Chen, you don’t need to offend our He family in order to save him.”
“He Clan?” Jing Lan laughed: “Could it be that you have such big guts, to actually belong to the He family? It’s a pity that even though your He family is strong, it doesn’t mean much to us.”
Hearing that Jing Lan was not putting on an act, she was really not worried about the He family, as the identity of the man was not ordinary.
Ruo Yun turned around and said to You Xiang: “Let’s go.”
After he finished speaking, he walked out, and regardless of what He Shao would do, Jing Lan picked up the Pearl of Life, and without showing any intent of returning it to Di Chen, he watched on as she walked out.
You Xiang supported Di Chen out, and Di Chen smiled at him.
He Shao stared at the crowd, he did not dare say anything, otherwise, they would truly kill him, but he would not give up.
After exiting the cave, Di Chen looked at Jing Lan and asked: “Can the Pearl of Life be returned to me?”
Jing Lan was only playing with the Pearl of Life curiously, and did not have the intention of returning it to Di Chen.
“This is the Pearl of Life that warriors desire the most. I never thought that you would swallow one.”
Jing Lan laughed: “If this Martial Region Continent’s warriors knew that there is a Pearl of Life here, they would probably go crazy fighting for it. That He family is also a genius, to think that they could actually take out the refined Pearl of Life.”
Pearl of Life s were the most convenient way for warriors to raise their strength. A person with even weaker talent would be able to easily cultivate to Martial Saint Realm as long as they had Pearl of Life, but Pearl of Life s that were normally refined would not be able to be retracted. He Shao being able to pull out the Pearl of Life was truly surprising.
Bai Xun said excitedly: “Sister Lan, this Pearl of Life is a good item and can’t be returned to him. I think we should sell it.
You Qin was speechless: “This Pearl of Life is priceless, you actually want to sell it?”
Bai Xun laughed out loud, “Selling the money will help all of us break through a great realm, that’s not a small amount at all.”
It was just that the Pearl of Life could not be measured with silver and no one would sell it. Bai Xun did not want to sell it either, but it was impossible for him to refine it for him.
You Xiang advised: “Sister Lan, I think you should return this Pearl of Life to Di Chen. It should be his business in the first place.”
Bai Xun immediately retorted: “You Xiang, how can you say that, he stole our points from us last time, even if it’s the price that he paid, what right do we have to return it? Furthermore, we saved his life.”
Not to mention Bai Xun, even Jing Lan did not want to return it. She hesitated for a bit, before throwing it over to Di Chen.
“Blue …” Seeing this, Bai Xun wanted to object, but the words that just left his mouth were taken back, he knew that Jing Lan must have made a decision, and there was no way to change it.
Ruo Yun did not seem to mind, and laughed: “Pearl of Life s are truly priceless treasures to martial artists, but there are limitations to this kind of things. After you break through to the Martial Saint level, you will not be able to rely on the Demonic beast flesh and blood to continue improving, so if you want to breakthrough to become a martial king, you do not need to rely on other things.”
The Pearl of Life itself was also an Immortal Grade item. It could help a person reach the Martial Saint realm but it would not be able to break through the realm of War God. Furthermore, at that time, it would have been a long-term reliance on the Pearl of Life that would cause the realm to rise by leaps and bounds.
Ruo Yun and Jing Lan were both people who wanted to break through the realm of War God, so the two of them did not want the Pearl of Life at all.
Bai Xun obviously knew about this sort of thing, but he didn’t think that he would be able to break through Martial Saint in his entire life.
Di Chen took it and cupped his fists: “Thank you.”
Jing Lan laughed out loud: “This time we saved you, and helped you snatch back the Pearl of Life, you should repay us right?”
Di Chen stared blankly for a moment, thought for a while and said: “What kind of repayment do you guys want, my realm is low, and there is a limit to what I can do, but I will definitely do my best.”
Di Chen had long guessed that they must have a reason for helping him, it was just that Di Chen couldn’t reject them, and could only agree that these people would not make him do anything dangerous.
