Chapter 778: Refinement!
A pair of serpent-like eyes fixed their gaze on Jian Wuque, Xu Zhu, and Cheng Yanhuan, emitting sounds akin to dragon roars.
“Hiss…”
The Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons slithered and coiled in every direction, encircling the area with their layered presence. Their eerie eyes cast a cold, intimidating glow.
“What’s going on here?”
“How could these Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons be aiding Yi Su?”
Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide in confusion and disbelief.
These fierce creatures, the Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons, were now actually guarding Yi Su, the Dharma Protector.
Jian Wuque’s and Cheng Yanhuan’s gazes subtly shifted as they noticed that all the Dragon Crystal Fruits had ended up in Yi Su’s possession.
From Yi Su’s reaction, it appeared he had just consumed two Dragon Crystal Fruits and was now in the crucial process of refining them. This seemed like the perfect time to strike, with a high chance of success.
But the presence of these Demonic True Realm Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons posed a significant problem.
The two men instinctively turned their attention to Xu Chen, having recognized his strength. His ability to repel a Demonic True Realm Second Stage Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Python had already demonstrated his capabilities. If they joined forces with him, there might be a chance to seize the Dragon Crystal Fruit from Yi Su.
“Who dares make a move? Don’t blame me for being impolite!”
Sensing their gaze, Xu Chen understood. Despite his handsome appearance, there was a sharpness in his eyes. His voice echoed throughout the canyon.
Xu Chen then turned his attention to Su Yi, who was submerged in the molten-like pool, murmuring, “Does this guy not care about his own life?”
The crowd exchanged glances, their eyes full of complex emotions, focusing on Su Yi in the center of the pool. Suddenly, someone gritted their teeth in frustration.
All the Dragon Crystal Fruits had been claimed by that one person. Not only had he eaten two of them directly, but even more mysteriously, he had a Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Python as his Dharma Protector, leaving everyone utterly powerless.
“This is too much! The last one to arrive took all the Dragon Crystal Fruits!”
“This person is completely ignoring everyone else. Even though everyone made their move, this individual single-handedly took all the Dragon Crystal Fruits!”
Faced with the temptation of the Dragon Crystal Fruit, the crowd could hardly resist, whispering among themselves.
Their gazes inevitably shifted toward Jian Wuque and Cheng Yanhuan. Everyone knew that at this point, the only ones who might still have a chance at obtaining the Dragon Crystal Fruit were Jian Wuque and Cheng Yanhuan.
But they not only couldn’t handle Yi Su, the Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons had made them tremble with fear.
Unfortunately, despite Cheng Yanhuan and Jian Wuque furrowing their brows, keeping their eyes fixed on Su Yi and the group of Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons, and occasionally glancing at Xu Chen, they quickly and silently came to an unspoken understanding. They turned around and left.
Jian Wuque and Cheng Yanhuan knew full well that with their own strength and Xu Chen seemingly protecting Yi Su, they had no chance.
Everything seemed too strange, leaving them completely at a loss. They had no time to waste and needed to head to the Sanctified Martial Platform of the Void, but for now, they had no choice but to leave.
Watching Jian Wuque depart, Gong Qi looked in the distance at Su Yi, her eyes flickering with doubt. Finally, she left, unsure.
“This is too much!”
“Too excessive! How could they act this way!”
Many in the crowd were filled with frustration and resentment.
Jian Wuque and Cheng Yanhuan also departed without hesitation, too intimidated by the Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Python’s Dharma Tool to remain. If the tool activated, they would be in grave danger, having no chance against it.
Xu Chen, however, paid no attention to the others. His gaze remained fixed on Su Yi. Meanwhile, the group of Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons had their chilling, menacing eyes focused on him.
“I meant no harm; I was with him!”
Xu Chen frowned as he faced the Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons alone. He was genuinely cautious, fearing a sudden attack from the creatures.
The Demonic True Realm Three-Headed Dragon-Horned Pythons slithered with cold, sinister glints in their serpent-like eyes, observing Xu Chen. Despite his claim, they didn’t seem to believe his words. Still, they showed no signs of aggression, instead surrounding him, protecting Su Yi as his Dharma Protectors.
Xu Chen felt helpless, forced to wait and watch Su Yi’s transformation unfold. His expression grew serious as he muttered to himself, “This guy is really ruthless.”
Inside the magma-like pool, Su Yi sat cross-legged, surrounded by a crimson aura that shielded him from the searing magma.
Within Su Yi’s body, the fiery dragon-like energy from two Dragon Crystal Fruits surged and exploded, making him feel as though he were about to be consumed by flames inside and out.
Luckily, Su Yi possessed the Indestructible Vajra Body.
The cultivation technique of the Indestructible Vajra Body was forged with fire from the depths of the earth. Otherwise, even a martial artist at the first stage of the Yuan True Realm would be incinerated by a single Dragon Crystal Fruit, let alone Su Yi, who had swallowed two.
Su Yi was accustomed to this process. Clenching his teeth, he endured the inner pain, his face contorted. His Supreme Chaotic Yuan Technique activated, refining the Dragon Crystal Fruit’s energy and converting it into pure vital essence.
The vital essence then circulated through his body for thirty-six cycles, before entering the whirlpool in his Dantian, the sea of qi.
As the energy refined, Su Yi could feel a strange force penetrating deep into his organs, muscles, and every cell, causing a profound internal transformation. It was as if a wondrous metamorphosis was underway.
But this transformation was happening slowly.
Inside Su Yi, from head to toe, countless changes had already taken place over time without his awareness.
In the beginning, Su Yi could feel the transformation, but over time, it seemed to slip from his perception. However, the change continued steadily, and with enough time, it would naturally gather and culminate.
“Hoo-lah-lah…”
The energy from the two Dragon Crystal Fruits was immense, flowing steadily into the vortex within his dantian.
Su Yi’s dantian sea of qi had long been extraordinary, radiating a soft, spiritual glow. This created a translucent barrier that made the vital energy even more condensed, pure, and powerful.
The energy surged within him, and Su Yi began to feel the urge to break through again.
Enduring the pain in his body, Su Yi soon felt his aura rising. Fiery red light flickered in his breath, resembling undulating spirit serpents.
This breath followed a special rhythm, deep and melodious.
“Crash…”
As Su Yi’s aura grew, waves spread across the molten pool outside the crimson energy barrier.
“Wow… only at the ninth level of the Yuan Spirit Realm…”
Xu Chen, having found a place to sit and calm himself, looked down at Su Yi from an elevated position. Sensing the surging aura around Su Yi, he finally realized that Su Yi was only at the ninth level of the Yuan Spirit Realm in his cultivation.
