True Martial World - Chapter 841: Cooperate?

Boom!

Luo Tian's gigantic ape palm heavily slammed into the black-misted dragon head. With a quiver, the dragon head roared and continued rushing forwards!

"Peng!" Luo Tian pressed down on the dragon head, but his body was sent flying backward by the great impact. He eventually landed on a rock cliff.

Luo Tian suppressed his surging blood as he roared again, bulging all his muscles!

"Peng!"

The ancient Gigantic Demon Ape bloodline in his body burst out to its limits, but Luo Tian still could not do a single thing against the black dragon. With a sudden jolt, the black dragon pressed down on Luo Tian, causing the cliff face behind him to crack!

Even Luo Tian was at a disadvantage?

When the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples saw this scene, they felt their hearts tighten. Just a wyrm condensed from the black mist on the seventh level of Black Wind Valley was already this powerful!

Both Luo Tian and Ran Yu could not block it!

At that moment, Gu Luo also jumped onto the seventh level. Taking advantage of Luo Tian's fight with the black dragon and his thin Mummy-like body, he plunged deep into the depths of the black mist like a ghost!

Gu Luo was taking the opportunity to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake!

"That guy!"

The Phoenix Firmiana State disciples began to curse. By taking advantage of Luo Tian's blocking of the black dragon for him, Gu Luo's sneaky act was despised by the rest of the warriors.

Of course, although they found it despicable, they could only watch on. Other than those three, no one else could enter the seventh level.

Gu Luo was extremely fast. Since Luo Tian was trapped by the black dragon, he could not prevent this from happening. Hence, in an instant, Gu Luo had rushed into the black mist. The Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake was leisurely swimming around in the black mist, as though it was having fun in Black Wind Valley.

Seeing Gu Luo charge at it, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake remained unperturbed. He didn’t if it was an illusion, but it revealed a weird sinister smile.

It was creepy just thinking about a snake's smile

"Si… !"

The Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake spat its tongue out like an arrow that shot straight at Gu Luo. Using his bloodline's power to augment his dehydrated palm, he suddenly grabbed at the snake.

'"Puah!"

Blood splattered everywhere as a mist of redness burst out of the black mist. With a deep-sounding snort, Gu Luo held his dehydrated palm. His hand had been pierced through by the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake, boring a blood hole in it.

This...

People knew very well that Gu Luo's body possessed terrifying strength. Previously, on the fourth and fifth levels of Black Wind Valley, Gu Luo had only used his body to withstand the black gases. Yet, with Gu Luo's powerful body, he was instantly wounded. How could the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake be caught?

"Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!"

The Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake shuttled through the air and devoured all the blood that spewed out of Gu Luo's palm. And at that moment, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake changed its target and charged at Gu Luo's body.

Gu Luo's constantly paralyzed face finally revealed a trace of fear. With a leap, he jumped towards the sixth level.

Luo Tian and Ran Yu also noticed that the situation was unfavorable. Luo Tian forcefully conjured his bloodline's power and he repelled the black dragon. Luo Tian and Ran Yu also jumped back to the sixth level.

With the trio gone, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake returned to its leisurely state. It swam in the black mist, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

The three top figures of the Fire Cloud State and Phoenix Firmiana State had returned in failure.

Upon seeing this scene, the Luo clan disciples present felt their hearts skip a beat. The seventh level was just too difficult.

From the looks of it, all three of them had no means to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake. There were more than ten days left. It was also difficult for the trio to use the time to improve themselves to the point of being able to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake alone, and it might even be impossible!

Unless… they cooperated!

With the three people cooperating, one of them can block the black dragon, while the other two could capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake. It was actually possible!

If the ordinary Luo clan disciples could think of cooperation, it was obvious that the trio thought of it as well.

However, if they cooperated, how were they going to split the trophies of war after capturing the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake?

Could the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake be equally split? It was quite impossible to think of splitting such a spiritual being.

When he thought about this, Luo Tian suddenly thought of something else. Looking up, he saw Cang Mang sitting with a coy but deep meaningful smile on his face.

This gave Luo Tian a fright. Could that sly fox have done this on purpose?

Cang Mang knew that with the trio's strength, it was impossible for them to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake alone. However, he made them look at it, and it was practically a carrot dangling in front of them that they could not eat.

Geniuses that came from different states felt contempt for each other, and in fact, even people from the same state believed in every man for himself. Sharing with others was not tolerated.

Cang Mang knew this clearly, but he had deliberately designed a situation in which they needed to cooperate.

Without any cooperation, no one could receive anything. However, if they cooperated, how were they going to split the rewards?

This was a problem that Cang Mang deliberately proposed!

"What is Cang Mang doing this for?" Ran Yu secretly pondered. Maybe Cang Mang was telling the Luo clan disciples that the Luo clan needed intense competition, but they also needed each other's cooperation?

Or could it be that Cang Mang wanted to watch a good show of them trying to cheat and outwit each other? The strongest person who was most opportunistic could capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake in the confusion.

However, regardless of what situation that Cang Mang wanted to see, it did not matter. What mattered was that Luo Tian, Ran Yu and company knew that when they matured, they would explore mystic realms in the future. And when the time came, they would also face similar situations.

When a group of people were chasing a treasure with no one having the ability to monopolize it, they had no choice but to cooperate, and also guard against their teammates while trying to outwit each other.

"That old fox is machinating something against us." Ran Yu's face fell heavily as he looked at Gu Luo and Luo Tian.

Gu Luo remained silent with the same old corpse-like face. There was no way to read his thoughts.

From a look on Luo Tian's face, he clearly shared the same thoughts as Ran Yu.

Noticing that Ran Yu was looking at him, Luo Tian sneered and said, "I know what you’re thinking. I do not have the habit of cooperating with others. The three of us shall make a move together, but everything will depend on your own skill. As long as we don't hold back each other, we can see who has the ability to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake!"

With Luo Tian being so arrogant, Ran Yu also sneered and said, "I did not plan on cooperating with you as well. We shall be judged by our own merits and see who the winner is!"

Cang Mang sat silently mid-air, nonchalantly watching at all of this.

He naturally knew that be it Luo Tian or Ran Yu, they were prideful people. How could they tolerate sharing treasures with others?

Furthermore, there was more than ten days left before the Black Wind Valley trial ended. Luo Tian and Ran Yu would definitely vie for it, but things would turn interesting when they realized the fact that it was impossible.

Cang Mang did not expect the arrogant geniuses to sincerely cooperate with others. He only wanted to see how the geniuses would handle such situations when they faced with them. It was also interesting to see how they reluctantly cooperated while trying to defend against being backstabbed.

Cang Mang was curious about the outcome. This was the only pleasure that came from leading the bunch of juniors to participate in these boring trials.

With this thought in mind, he suddenly sensed something and looked at the second level of Black Wind Valley.

Eh? That human kid was finally getting up after such a long meditation?

True Martial World - Chapter 840: Reappearance of the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake

Days passed and nearly half of the month-long Black Wind Valley trial was over.

Including Lie Ya, there were more and more people who had managed to set foot onto Black Wind Valley's fifth level!

This was the minimum level that Cang Mang required.

Lie Ya was one of the first few people who had stepped foot onto the fifth level, but… regardless of how much he led others by, he had an ashen face, as though his father had just died. The debt of more than 150 World Stones was suppressing his heart like a heavy rock. Just thinking of how he could settle the debt gave Lie Ya a headache.

And the culprit of all this was Yi Yun. He was still on the second level.

"Why is that kid still meditating!? When does he plan on finishing his meditation?"

Just looking at Yi Yun made Lie Ya feel an irreconcilable hatred for him. He wanted to see what fuss Yi Yun would produce after absorbing the Ancient Fey bone for four days. He wanted to know if Yi Yun could even find his footing on the fifth level.

And suddenly, a red stream of light flashed near the seventh level.

It was the tiny single-horned snake with a body as crystalline as blood jade!

The moment the snake appeared, it brought with it a strange aura. Everyone could sense it. To the Fey race, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake was a treasure with extreme attractive powers. This attraction came from their bloodline. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Lie Ya momentarily could not bother to focus on Yi Yun. As he looked at the tiny scarlet snake shuttling through the seventh level, his eyes glimmered.

He truly wanted it.

If he could catch that tiny snake, what were 150 or 160 World Stones? Even if it were a thousand World Stones, his family clan would give it to him without the blink of an eye. Unfortunately, he could not even find his footing on the sixth level, what more capture the tiny snake?

Lie Ya felt helpless. On the sixth level, there were only three people — Ran Yu, Luo Tian and Gu Luo! Of course, the three of them were the only ones eligible for competing for the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake.

Seeing the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake appear, the trio, who were meditating on the sixth level, immediately stood up.

All of them wanted the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake at all costs!

"Luo Tian, the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake shall belong to me!"

Ran Yu roared as his blood began to boil. The Ranyi Fish phantom image appeared behind Ran Yu once again. With a leap, he entered the seventh level!

For Ran Yu, the move from the sixth to the seventh level was a great challenge.

"The seventh level! It has finally begun!"

Seeing Ran Yu head to the seventh level first, the Fire Cloud State disciples had anticipatory looks. Since they were destined to have no luck with the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake, they could feel honored if it was the famous Ran Yu, who was also a Fire Cloud State disciple, that managed to catch the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake.

Ran Yu was the first to jump down, but Luo Tian only smiled. He did not make a move.

The moment that Ran Yu landed on the seventh level, the surrounding black gas immediately billowed around him like a tsunami wave.

Ran Yu had already done all his preparatory work. He had been cultivating for so long on the sixth level all for this moment.

"Whew!"

The Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake was just too fast. Just after Ran Yu stepped foot onto the seventh level, it sank into the billowing black gas and disappeared.

At that moment, in the roaring sea of black billowing gases, a gigantic black dragon took form. It stirred the sea, producing an overwhelming pressure. As it spiraled over, it bit at Ran Yu!

"Ha!" Ran Yu bellowed. The Ranyi Fish phantom image suddenly expanded in size and it jerked its body. Simultaneously, Ran Yu threw a heavy punch with both arms. The surface of his fists seemed to contain a layer of surging water, and once he struck with his fists, the water withdrew as energy burst forth!

Ran Yu and his Ancient Fey bloodline synergized well together.

Boom!

The water patterns and the Ranyi Fish clashed with the gigantic black dragon. A wanton shockwave burst out as Ran Yu felt his arms go numb, and was sent flying backward!

Boom!

Ran Yu slammed into a stone pillar heavily. He felt something rise up his throat and he nearly spat a mouthful of blood out. But with so many people watching him, he was unwilling to show any weakness. He forcefully swallowed the mouthful of blood and circulated his energy once again!

But even though he could forcefully brace himself, Ran Yu felt that his energy was rapidly depleting, with some of the black gas entering his body!

Ran Yu's heart sank. The seventh level was on a completely different level of difficulty compared to the sixth level!

At that moment, Ran Yu no longer had thoughts of capturing the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake. Gritting his teeth, he resisted the surging black waves around him. Every punch sent out water ripples that expanded out in concentric circles. They clashed with the waves, but they were being repeatedly compressed by the waves!

If this went on, it would be a problem for Ran Yu to find his footing on the seventh level, let alone capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake.

The Fire Cloud State disciples felt their hearts tightened. With Ran Yu having so much trouble, what about Gu Luo?

"Weak!"

At that moment, Luo Tian suddenly spoke. As he watched the struggling Ran Yu, he sneered and said, "With your strength, finding your footing itself is a problem, so how can you even capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake? Even if I don't compete with you, you won't be able to obtain it either."

"You!" Ran Yu's was infuriated. However, he no longer had the time and energy to refute Luo Tian. All his energy was dedicated to resisting the black wave.

"Watch carefully!"

Having said that, Luo Tian roared, as every joint in his body produced an erupting explosion. Luo Tian's bloodline was the ancient Gigantic Demon Ape!

The ancient Gigantic Demon Ape had extremely powerful strength. It had the ability to move stars and it had a brutal personality. It was extremely terrifying.

And the descendants of the Gigantic Demon Ape were born with incomplete manifestations. There would always be parts of their body with the characteristics of a Fey beast.

After the Gigantic Demon Ape's descendants stimulated their bloodline, they would be different to typical Heaven Fey. They had a natural ability which was to fuse with the bloodline phantom image!

After the fusion, Luo Tian's body would be like a frame that supported the bloodline phantom image.

With a thick and realistic bloodline phantom image enshrouded by Luo Tian, this fusion resulted in a giant ape!

Luo Tian's realm was only at the Heaven Ascension realm. His bloodline phantom image was not powerful. If it was, what he produced would not have been a thirty feet giant ape, but a being that was a thousand feet tall and would be able to shatter a mountain range with a single punch. Furthermore, this was a mountain range from the 12 Empyrean Heavens. The firmness was far from ordinary.

But even so, with Luo Tian's cultivation realm, it was already extremely terrifying for his bloodline phantom image to reach this stage!

This needed an extremely powerful physique to support it. This was also the result of more than ten days of cultivation on the sixth level for Luo Tian.

Luo Tian used every hidden card he had, with his goal naturally being to enter the seventh level to capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake!

Luo Tian was in no hurry to go lower. Instead, he shattered several black gas shadows on the sixth level and devoured the Blood Dragon black gas to nourish his Gigantic Demon Ape bloodline!

Following that, Luo Tian leaped downwards onto the seventh level of Black Wind Valley!

With a wave of his hand, the phantom image moved along with him as a gigantic ape palm struck at the Blood Dragon black gas in the seventh level!

True Martial World - Chapter 839: Four Days

"It's been… three… three days… " Beside Lie Ya, someone said softly.

Three days had passed since Lie Ya had made his wretched bet with Luo Fengling. This also meant seventy-two hours and Lie Ya had lost more than a hundred World Stones. Lie Ya no longer had the disposition to continue cultivating. Every breath he took made his body wince in pain.

"Why does it feel like… Yi Yun will be able to persist on all the way? He won't persist for a whole month, will he?"

A month?

Lie Ya's face twisted when he heard that sentence. Yi Yun was planning on persisting to the end of the Black Wind Valley trials?

Persisting for a month sounded unbelievable, but from the way that Yi Yun stayed on the second level all fine and dandy, when was it going to end?

Luo Fengling was also now on the third level. With the passing of time, she herself was confused, having earned more than twenty year's worth of salary without doing a thing. It was just fascinating hearing what had happened. What method was Junior Brother Yi using to persist for so long?

However, finally on the fourth day, there was a slight change in the situation.

Yi Yun's body was no longer burning hot. His skin was no longer glowing from the heat, and from the looks of it, he seemed to slowly calm down.

The Ancient Fey energy was mysterious and bizarre. Using one's flesh and blood to refine the energy could result in all sorts of unpredictable matters. The others had no idea what had happened to Yi Yun either.

But from the looks of it, the Ancient Fey energy was not surging as crazily as before, as though it could be controlled now.

Why is this happening?

"Has he finally ended the absorption of the Ancient Fey bone?" People began to generate such thoughts when they saw Yi Yun's state. Only by stopping the absorption of the energy would Yi Yun appear so calm on the surface.

"How do you end the absorption? The Ancient Fey bone is sealed by a mighty Supremacies. The moment that the Ancient Fey blood and energy contained within is absorbed, it is equivalent to opening a hole. The blood and energy would constantly leak out, and in a few days, there wouldn't be much of the Ancient Fey energy left in it."

The person who spoke was Luo Tian from the Phoenix Firmiana State.

Ignoring the Ancient Fey bone, even mortal herbs like ginseng had similar properties. If one bit on a ginseng, its essence would begin draining away, and in a few days, all of its herbal properties would be gone. Hence, ginseng pickers would usually use a small brush to pick at it for days, afraid of breaking any strand of the ginseng.

"Wouldn't that be a waste? However, for this guy, wasting is better than succumbing to the tumultuous energy that might result in his meridians being damaged." Another Phoenix Firmiana State disciple said.

"Waste!? Then he might as well give me the part of the Ancient Fey bone that hasn't been absorbed!"

Many people were rendered speechless when they heard this. Don't force yourself if you can't absorb all of it, we can help you absorb a bit of it. Wasting it would be such a pity.

However, regardless of their wishes, with Cang Mang still sitting mid air all calm and composed, as though he was not planning on interfering, it was not possible for them to rush up to the second level to grab it from him.

"Don't be silly! Even if he can't absorb it all, he won't give it to you. Although the Ancient Fey bone's energy will leak, only a small portion ends up leaking. There will be still some left overs, but why would he give it to you?"

Many people were envious, but they were out of options. They could only watch as Yi Yun reckless destroyed a treasure of heaven.

In order to pass the Black Wind Valley trial, Yi Yun had wrecked an Ancient Fey bone that was from their Luo clan. If not for Cang Mang floating mid air, they would have rushed up and grabbed the Ancient Fey bone from Yi Yun.

But nonetheless, Yi Yun had exceeded expectations. He had persisted on for four days, which was fascinating!

The violent energy was something that typical people could not persist on for eight hours, let alone six times that amount.

Ran Yu meaningfully glanced at Yi Yun and he said to himself, "Yi Yun, I have indeed underestimated you previously. To be able to last for so long under the intense energy tempering, you will definitely obtain some benefits if your meridians aren't damaged!"

From the looks of it, Yi Yun did not appear to have injured his meridians.

But even so, with so much energy consumed, no one knew how much he could digest.

Being able to eat a meal that was worth what was days' worth for others did not necessarily mean that one could grow fat or taller.

"That human punk has truly not spared any effort in order to pass the trial. It appears like he won't have problems reaching the fifth level. We can't be inferior to a human punk. Let's work hard at getting a foothold on the fifth level before attempting the sixth."A Phoenix Firmiana State disciple said.

The middle bulk of the Phoenix Firmiana State's disciples were generally stronger than the Fire Cloud State’s disciples.

At that moment, they began their attempts at the fourth and fifth levels. And at that moment in time, Ran Yu had already found his footing on the sixth level.

He had destroyed a humanoid shadow with a slash, absorbing all the black gas from it. He was finally able to gain a foothold on the sixth level.

However, the pressure from the black gases had spiked at the sixth level, so it was not easy for Ran Yu to withstand it. He still had more than twenty days for to step onto the seventh level. As long as everything went smoothly, it would not be difficult.

Seeing Ran Yu gain his footing on the sixth level, many people felt jealous.

As long as he reached the seventh level, there would be an Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake there!

They were also participating in the Luo Divine Hall trials. But as ordinary disciples, they were still too far from competing with a genius like Ran Yu.

Similarly terrifying was Gu Luo.

Gu Luo had remained on the fourth level for a very long period of time. Compared to Ran Yu, he was rather inconspicuous.

However, when Gu Luo descended onto the fifth level, he immediately caught everyone’s attention. This was because Gu Luo had yet to stimulate his Fey race bloodline even at the fifth level!

He was relying on his body to forcefully resist it!

The black Fey that had taken form began to bite Gu Luo's body, but he remained as still as a mummy. Instantly, black Fey swarmed him, and this scene alone left many people's scalps tingling. How strong was his body for him to be able to resist such biting?

That was purely masochistic. Even if he had a powerful body, it was impossible to not feel any pain from such biting.

As the Phoenix Firmiana State and Fire Cloud State disciples were striving hard to attempt the deeper levels in Black Wind Valley, Yi Yun was still quietly refining the Ancient Fey bone.

In four days, the Purple Crystal had completely disintegrated the Ancient Fey bone. The Ancient Fey bone's energy was crystallized into tiny crystals that was dispersed throughout Yi Yun's flesh and blood. Yi Yun was slowly digesting and absorbing the energy crystals, and the process was much slower. This also stopped Yi Yun's body burning like a boiler.

As for the Ancient Fey bone itself, it had already been reduced to powder.

Even a Heaven Ascension realm genius from a famous Heaven Fey family would absorb half the energy of an Ancient Fey bone at best. Furthermore, it would take them a year or two to slowly digest and absorb it. This was already the best outcome, but using the Purple Crystal, Yi Yun just needed an extremely short amount of time to completely absorb the entire Ancient Fey bone.

True Martial World - Chapter 838: Lie Ya suffers a mental breakdown

"Hehe, since you have agreed to the bet, make the oath." Lie Ya said.

As he said this, he flicked a drop of blood from his fingers and made a hand seal that flew towards Luo Fengling on the third level of Black Wind Valley. Luo Fengling caught the seal and also flicked a drop of blood onto it.

This was a mental demon oath. The disciples of the Luo clan would typically use such oaths in their bets. After signing it, there was no room for regret, or the costs would outweigh the gain. Once the mental demon oath was established, the bet was established.

Lie Ya chuckled as he began meditating on the fourth level, making his preparations to break through to the fifth level.

It was not easy to meditate on the fourth level. He had to constantly power his Fey race bloodline to devour the black mist and if he made a mistake, the black gas would intrude into his body, causing damage to his soul sea.

Lie Ya was accumulating his strength so that he could proceed to the fifth level.

Up to now, his reaching the fifth level was already certain. Cang Mang had previously demanded that the disciples reach the fifth level, but he did not say that they needed to find their footing on the fifth level. This was very simple for Lie Ya. The personal goal that he set for himself was to find his footing on the fifth level and be able to last on the sixth level for a short period of time!

Although completing such a goal would not leave much of an impression on Lord Cang Mang, it was a commendable achievement in his own family clan, allowing him to enjoy more of the family's resources.

As Lie Ya was focused on his cultivation, someone suddenly said, "Senior Brother Lie Ya, it's almost two hours… "

"Oh?" Lie Ya opened his eyes and used his perception to sweep the first level of Black Wind Valley where Yi Yun was. He saw how Yi Yun looked the same, with his skin glowing red and streams of energy flowing beneath his skin. As Yi Yun's pores were sealed, the energy could not surge out, and seeing the blood vessels that were bursting with energy was quite a shocking sight. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

However, Yi Yun was still persisting on.

Lie Ya frowned slightly and said, "What's the hurry. It's only been two hours. Isn't there another two hours?"

Lie Ya continued his meditation as he devoured the black mist, strengthening his bloodline.

People were quite impressed with Lie Ya's nonchalant state of mind. Many of the Fire Cloud State disciples were paying attention to Yi Yun's situation from time to time as Lie Ya cultivated.

However, Lie Ya was paying close attention as well.

A warrior had great mental powers, so with their sense of time, they did not need things like hourglasses or incense sticks. They could silently keep track of time.

Soon… four hours had passed.

Yi Yun was still sitting on the first level and it looked like he was in a trance. Despite his body seemingly burning in flames, he was like a monk that was sitting amidst flames of nirvana — able to meditate and chant Buddhist verses despite the fire consuming him.

"Senior Brother Lie Ya, it's been four hours."

Lie Ya was already keeping track of time himself, but a junior brother, who did not know any better, reminded him.

Lie Ya's expression sank all of a sudden. How was this rascal persisting?

He stared at the junior brother who spoke. He wanted to scold him, but at that moment, the junior brother added on, "Senior Brother Lie Ya, you have lost three World Stones to Luo Fengling… "

The corner of Lie Ya's mouth twitched slightly.

"Cut the crap!"

Lie Ya cursed. Three World Stones was nothing much to Lie Ya. However, he could not figure out what was going on with Yi Yun. To last for that long, even the bloodline of Heaven Fey could not do that...

Lie Ya coldly said, "Four hours is his limit. That lass, Luo Fengling, has pretty good luck. However, since I have lost, I will not turn back on my word."

Having said this, Lie Ya calmed his heart down and began to meditate again.

But following that…

"Senior Brother Lie Ya, it's been six hours." The talkative junior brother opened his mouth again.

Lie Ya stared with widened eyes as his face turned ugly.

He stood up and glanced at Yi Yun in a perplexed manner. What the hell was going on?

"It's been six hours. I don't believe that your meridians can withstand it. I want to see how long you can last."

Lie Ya clenched his fists as he forcefully composed himself before sitting down again.

He was still able to calm his heart down for cultivation, but following that…

"Senior Brother Lie Ya, it's been eight hours."

That reminder was like a devil's curse. After hearing it, Lie Ya's heart skipped a beat. He was truly afraid of hearing it, but he knew for a fact that eight hours had passed.

His anger flared as he hatefully stared at the junior brother who had opened his mouth. He snapped, "There's no need for you to remind me!"

"Uh… " The junior brother was taken aback and shrinking his neck, he kept quiet.

"Eight hours! What the heck?"

At that moment, Lie Ya no longer had the composure to continue cultivating. Every two hours, he would lose three World Stones.

Could that punk really persist on all the way?

"Nice going kid. I'll have to hand it to you. I would like to see how long you can last for. If you have the ability, try making me lose all my fortune!"

Lie Ya had quite a fortune. After all, he was older than Luo Fengling. The salary of the Heaven Fire Hall and the support from his family clan allowed him to come up with thirty World Stones.

"World Stones? I have lots of them. Even if I need to produce twenty to buy an explosive death of yours, I'll be willing to produce them."

With this thought in mind, Lie Ya felt his mind ease up.

But following that, the tenth hour, the twelfth hour…

As the river of time flowed, Lie Ya could no longer sit still.

"It's been sixteen hours. Is something amiss?" A junior brother said.

"Holy shit, there must be a problem!" Someone said as more and more people paid attention to Yi Yun.

They couldn’t believe that Yi Yun had persisted for so long.

And at that moment, Lie Ya's face had gone green. His net worth could not withstand such a big loss. Since he had had already signed the mental demon oath, he could no longer go back on his word. Even Ran Yu would feel the pinch if he lost so many World Stones, let alone himself.

But that was not the end. Time moved to the twenty-fourth hour as an entire day passed.

Lie Ya was becoming extremely anxious. It meant that he would lose thirty-three World Stones. He did not even have that many World Stones on him. He might even need to sell some of his treasures to produce the rest of that amount!

And following that, thirty hours and then, thirty-two hours. Soon, it was almost halfway past the second day.

Lie Ya was on the brink of a mental collapse. Why did Yi Yun look as though he could persist on further!?

Soon, the sun set. Mt. Azure Billow had an array formation that maintained the rising and setting of the sun. Seeing that the sun had set while Yi Yun was still fine and dandy, Lie Ya felt himself go dizzy. He could only see blackness as he nearly spewed out a mouthful of blood.

He felt completely defeated. He no longer dared to say things like "if you have the ability, make me lose my fortune", because… he had already lost all his fortune.

Now, he wished that he could kneel down in front of Yi Yun and beg him — Big Bro, please don't hold on any further, I myself can't hold on any longer.

However, Yi Yun apparently did not hear Lie Ya's prayer. The second day passed as the sky lit up. Yi Yun remained unfeeling, while Lie Ya passed the night in a tensed up state. His eyes were already red.

The matter was just too strange. Yi Yun looked like a simmering volcano and he looked like he would erupt at any moment. But for some unknown reason, he remained as calm as ever.

And the most unforgivable matter of all was in the morning of the third day, Yi Yun's body suddenly floated up.

He had closed off his five senses, but he flew from the first level slowly onto the second level!

There was no one left in Black Wind Valley's second level. Even Bai Chen had barely managed to reach the third level.

Hence, Yi Yun was the only person on the second level.

No one laughed at Yi Yun's slow speed because Yi Yun had flown to the second level while absorbing the Ancient Fey bone's energy.

Behind Yi Yun, the Nine Neonate phantom image emerged. It wandered about, devouring the black mist to strengthen itself, looking extremely carefree as it went on its merry way.

Not only did Yi Yun dislike the lack of intensity of the black mist on the first level, he was even able to withstand the second level’s black mist while absorbing the Ancient Fey bone's energy!

Yi Yun was absorbing the Ancient Fey bone's energy, while the Nine Neonate Aspect Totem was absorbing the black gases!

When he saw this scene, Lie Ya truly wanted to kneel before Yi Yun. He believed that regardless of how long Yi Yun could persist for, there would definitely be a limit. Now, with Yi Yun coming down to the second level, it meant that he still had ample room for more.

Are you kidding me!?

Lie Ya's face was drenched with sweat as his eyes turned bloodshot. He wanted to just pass out or jump off Black Wind Valley's cliff.

What was going on!? He would rather be beaten to death than believe that a human could absorb so much of the Ancient Fey bone's energy!

"That's not right! That's not right! Something must not be right!"

Lie Ya bellowed. At that moment, there were numerous Fire Cloud State disciples who were looking pitifully at Lie Ya.

They also knew about how Lie Ya had attempted to scam Luo Fengling, but now, he had ended up losing 70–80 World Stones.

And from Yi Yun's situation, it did not seem like it was a problem to break past a hundred.

By losing more than a hundred World Stones in one fell swoop, whatever Lie Ya gained had previously at the Ancient Fey Edifice might even have to be vomited out.

At that moment, even Cang Mang was startled as he looked at Yi Yun. From not paying any concern to Yi Yun from the beginning to noting with interest, and finally to amazement.

There were not many juniors that could amaze Cang Mang.

True Martial World - Chapter 837: Provoked

As time passed, deep in Black Wind Valley, the Phoenix Firmiana State and Fire Cloud State disciples displayed their respective skills!

In the process of them battling the Blood Dragon black gases, their physiques gradually strengthened as well. A large number of disciples had completed the second level, and they successively began to enter the third level. Many of them had gotten their footing in the third level, and some had even reached the fourth level.

At that moment, most of them were at their limits, without any ability to continue descending anymore. Some had no choice but to sit down and cultivate, and allow their Fey race bloodline to devour the Black Wind Valley's black gas so that they could be nourished.

And while cultivating, some of them paid attention to Yi Yun's situation.

Seeing Yi Yun's situation, they were rendered truly speechless. When they were at the second level, they saw Yi Yun's body burning over, with all his acupuncture points sealed off. His body was hot like a boiler and he looked as though he would combust in flames.

Now that they had arrived at the third or fourth level, they themselves could not tolerate it any further. And looking back at Yi Yun, his body was still hot all over with his acupuncture points sealed, as though his body was about to explode?

What was wrong with this?

"I say, how is that rascal holding on for so long? Even if he doesn't explode and die, it won't be surprising if his meridians are destroyed. Even the bodies of the Fey race cannot withstand such powerful energies." A Fire Cloud State disciple said after seeing Yi Yun's situation.

At that moment, Lie Ya had also arrived at the fourth level. As he looked at Yi Yun, he knitted his brows. That rascal had lasted longer than he expected.

However, no one could hold on for that long. Even if their will allowed them to hold on, their meridians would not be able to.

When he thought about it, Lie Ya grunted and said, "It's just a result of willpower. But by doing so, his meridians will be damaged. Without a year or two, he won't be able to recover from it. He's already a spent force. I bet he will last for another two hours at most."

"Two hours? In my opinion, it seems like he… won't be limited to that. He might even be able to last another four hours… " A Fire Cloud State disciple said with uncertainty. He too had believed that Yi Yun would not be able to persist for that long, but from the looks of it, Yi Yun appeared to be able to carry on longer...

Lie Ya chuckled and said, "It won't be more than four hours. Didn't I say before that we can bet on this? However, the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples came and interrupted us. Are you still up for it?"

With Lie Ya saying this, the other Fire Cloud State disciples were hesitant. They were not certain on how long Yi Yun could persist for.

However, it was unexpected that someone was really indignant. A female voice belonging to Luo Fengling came from the third level. She said, "Lie Ya, Junior Brother Yi Yun is our Fire Cloud State's disciple. Now that we are competing against the Phoenix Firmiana State, disciples from both states are in contention, trying to outdo the other, so they win glory for their own state. But for you, Lie Ya, you didn't compete with the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples and instead choose to mock our Fire Cloud State disciples. Aren't you going too far!?"

Regardless of the matter, Luo Fengling was the one who brought Yi Yun into the Fire Cloud State. Furthermore, Yi Yun had good character, so Luo Fengling had a good impression of Yi Yun.

Besides, Luo Fengling was a new disciple who was going to participate with Yi Yun for the upcoming Luo Divine Hall trials together. Their statuses were rather similar, having been ostracized by the senior disciples, so they had a common enemy. Seeing Yi Yun being derided, she felt uncomfortable.

Lie Ya sneered. "Of course, our Fire Cloud State has to compete with the Phoenix Firmiana State. However, it will not be relying on a human... it will be a member of our Fey race that has the most concentrated bloodline! I might not be up to it, but I believe that my bloodline will be able to contribute a portion of strength!"

"As for you, Luo Fengling, why don't you think about your role when it comes to the competition against the Phoenix Firmiana State? Don't think that just because your surname is 'Luo' and you being a Heaven Fey means anything. There are numerous people in the Luo clan with the surname 'Luo'. Some of the distant bloodlines are even inferior to my Lie clan. You haven't reached the third level up to now. I'm not even sure if you can reach the fifth level by the end of the trial. You might even be eliminated!"

Lie Ya mercilessly mocked Luo Fengling, causing her to grit her teeth tightly. The family clan that she belonged to was an insignificant branch of the Luo clan. Indeed, her bloodline was not powerful, and it was something that she lacked the most confidence in. Cultivation techniques could be cultivated, but to supplement her bloodline, only a top treasure like the Ancient Fey bone could do so. Where was she going to obtain one from?

Having her raw nerve struck, Luo Fengling angrily said, "Didn't you want to make a bet? I'll bet with you. What happens if I can reach the fifth level? What happens if Junior Brother Yi manages to last for more than two hours?"

Upon hearing Luo Fengling's agreement to bet with him, Lie Ya was interested. With a twinkling light in his eyes, a teasing smile suffused across his lips. He was not confident about Luo Fengling being unable to reach the fifth level, and he did not bet on things that he had no confidence in. But for Yi Yun, even if he could last two hours, could he last four hours? Wasn't betting on four hours a sure-win? With Luo Fengling being agitated, she would probably agree if he added another two hours to the bet.

Upon thinking about this, Lie Ya smiled and said, "You want to bet? Great! If the punk lasts for more than two hours, I will give three World Stones to you for every two hours he lasts. If he can't persist past two hours, you give lose ten World Stones to me. How about it?"

With Lie Ya saying that, the people present secretly shook their heads.

Lie Ya was too treacherous. If Luo Fengling made a bet with Lie Ya over how long Yi Yun could last, that was already disadvantageous to Luo Fengling. But now, Lie Ya had established a bet to scam Luo Fengling.

Things like persisting on every two hours which meant losing three World Stones sounded like Luo Fengling had gained the advantage, but everyone knew that eight or ten hours was practically impossible. It was all carrots on a stick that could not be obtained.

With Lie Ya saying this, he made a two hour bet become a four hour bet. Only after four hours would he begin losing World Stones. If it was less than four hours, he would win ten!

Immediately, many people despised Lie Ya for his actions. Luo Fengling was a junior and a young lady. Yet, Lie Ya had taken advantage of an agitated Luo Fengling to change the bet, scamming a young girl for her World Stones. He was utterly shameless.

At that moment, Luo Fengling was irrevocably committed. Having been mocked by Lie Ya, how could she take this lying? At this trial, she had suffered criticism from her identity as a new disciple and her obtaining a spot in the trial through Fairy Black Bamboo's backdoor.

It was only ten World Stones, two year's worth of salary. Although it will be quite a pinch, Luo Fengling could still afford it.

"Alright! I'll bet on it!" Luo Fengling said while gritting her teeth. At the same time, she secretly prayed that Yi Yun could last for more than two hours. She hoped that not only would his body be tempered, but also allow her to not lose a single World Stone. As a side branch of the Luo clan, Luo Fengling's family would not provide her with too many resources. She still had to rely on herself. Losing ten World Stones would greatly reduce her cultivation speed.

True Martial World - Chapter 836: Seamless Body

"Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake… " Ran Yu's eyes flashed a hint of desire and greed.

Previously, he had failed to obtain the Ancient Fey bone. So now, he had to get the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake at all costs!

However, his enemies changed from Yi Yun to Luo Tian and Gu Luo!

But this was just perfect. Luo Tian and Gu Luo were famous opponents with true strength. It felt better competing with such enemies!

Unlike Yi Yun… a human rascal who was unknown. Winning against him did not win any glory, but once he lost, as he did previously at the Ancient Fey Edifice…

That feeling was so embarrassing that he felt like immediately committing suicide.

The Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake only revealed its head before swimming back into the rolling black gases.

"Alright, begin." Cang Mang said lightly.

"Haha, then I shall begin." Luo Tian whipped the tail behind him before leaping into the Blood Dragon black gas.

"Ze ze. The bunch of you came here a day earlier, but the majority of you are still only at the second level! What weaklings."

The moment Luo Tian descended, he did not hold back on his derision. The faces of the Fire Cloud State disciples turned ugly when they heard this.

But it had to be said that Luo Tian was indeed powerful!

Luo Tian was agile like an ape. The foul aura emitted by the Blood Dragon black gas surged at him, but with a wave of his long tail, they were all absorbed by his tail.

It was so easy it was like he was playing.

Of course, this was just the first and second level. Even Luo Tian could not be that relaxed if he went lower.

"Gu Luo! Ran Yu!" Luo Tian noticed Gu Luo and Ran Yu, who were beneath him, at a glance. His eyes focused, but following that, he started looking around and he was somewhat taken aback.

"Why don't I see Yi Yun?"

Luo Tian had jumped down into Black Wind Valley with an aggressive posture, but he did not see Yi Yun's figure.

However, with a sweep of his perception, he found Yi Yun on the first level. At that moment, Yi Yun was sitting in a cave. The skin all over his body looked as though it was roasted, and deep inside his body, there were roaring sounds that resembled an airbox.

"What is Yi Yun doing?"

Luo Tian was momentarily shocked.

"Oh? Ancient Fey aura? All his acupuncture points are sealed?" Luo Tian realized that something was unusual about Yi Yun. Even his acupuncture points for his ears and heart were sealed, so Yi Yun could not hear anything from the outside world.

"Don't… don't tell me that he is absorbing the Ancient Fey bone here?" Luo Tian was deeply startled. Was Yi Yun dumb? The Black Wind Valley trial only lasted a month. His cultivation level was still extremely weak, yet he was absorbing the Ancient Fey bone here!?

"What's so surprising. A human's body is lacking, and Yi Yun's powerful nomological insights are useless here. He can't even pass the fifth level, and the outcome will be him not being able to attend the Luo Divine Hall trials." Ran Yu said nonchalantly from the fifth level of Black Wind Valley. His voice pierced through the black mist and into everyone's ears.

"Weak bloodline… The bloodline of humans is indeed weak… However, using a last-minute effort of absorbing the Ancient Fey bone in order to pass Black Wind Valley is just too naive." Luo Tian did not know why Yi Yun was so dumb. But it was good. Previously, he had been trampled on by Yi Yun, and he nursed a grievance against him. Now that he saw Yi Yun digging his own grave, he also felt his mind ease up. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

"A last-minute effort was done because he was out of options. If he doesn't do so, he won't be able to join the Luo Divine Hall trials."

Ran Yu said nonchalantly and glanced at Luo Tian. "Ignore him, I am your opponent!"

Upon saying this, Ran Yu's aura exploded as a black gas snake the thickness of a bowl was dispersed by Ran Yu's punch that was augmented with his bloodline power. It was immediately devoured after that!

"Hahaha, Ran Yu, you think too highly of yourself. Do you think you are worthy to be my opponent?"

Luo Tian suddenly plummeted straight down!

Third level, fourth level, fifth level!

Luo Tian instantly reached the fifth level, the same level as Ran Yu.

Ran Yu's eyes focused as his bloodline power burst out!

His nomological insights were weaker than Luo Tian, but the test of bloodline at the Black Wind Valley trial was his forte. He had to obtain the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake!

"Ran Yu is heading to the sixth level!"

"It looks like Luo Tian has given Ran Yu some pressure. He is prematurely rushing for the sixth level."

"No hurry. It is not that easy to descend to the sixth level. Look at Ran Yu, he is only probing it."

Ran Yu did not move, but the Ranyi Fish phantom image behind him began swimming to the sixth level.

However, just as it reached the sixth level, thick black gas surged over, and in it, there was a humanoid shadow.

The humanoid shadow held a long saber which it brandished and it slashed at the phantom image.

Ran Yu immediately felt his scalp tingle and he hurriedly made the Ranyi Fish phantom image dodge and then swing its tail at the saber.

Bam!

A loud bang reverberated as the shadow saber was parried. However, the Ranyi Fish also retreated out of the sixth level. The humanoid shadow sullenly took a step back before disappearing into the Blood Dragon black gas.

"Could that humanoid black gas have devoured a warrior in the past? It seems to possess a certain amount of intelligence and it can use cultivation techniques!"

Ran Yu's face turn solemn. The degenerated Blood Dragon's blood was extremely odd. The degenerated Blood Dragon had devoured thousands of living beings to begin with, so it was natural that the blood it left behind could devour Fey race warriors to strengthen itself.

When the other disciples saw this scene, they shuddered.

The black gas was terrifying to begin with. If it was able to inherit a certain amount of intelligence of the Fey race, it would be much harder to deal with!

They had also seen that there were several humanoid shadows lurking in the black gas. If Ran Yu truly descended into the sixth level, he would be immediately encircled.

If the sixth level was already this difficult, the seventh level was obviously even more terrifying.

However, levels below the fifth were the stages for powerful freaks. They just needed to reach the fifth level.

Everyone began working hard. Although they could not compare with freaks like Ran Yu, they did not want to lose to the others at the very least.

Instantly, everyone began giving their all to battle the black Fey before devouring the black gas. The rest of the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples also began from the first level.

And as this scene happened, Yi Yun, who was still in cave, was experiencing a different scene.

Phew! Phew!

Yi Yun's glabella rose up high as every acupuncture point and meridian was filled with energy.

Although the energy was tempestuous, with the Purple Crystal, Yi Yun was able to evenly distribute the energy to every minute spot in his body. He wrapped every cell in his body with energy, preventing any leakage.

Typically, during the body-tempering of humans and even the Fey race, there were always ‘leaks‘. Certain muscles and blood vessels were difficult to temper, and even the most ingenious cultivation techniques would have leaks. And these leaking points would become the warrior's weakness in the future. As their strength reached the next realm, the points would become obstacles that formed bottlenecks.

And at that moment, by relying on the Purple Crystal and the Ancient Fey bone, Yi Yun was unwittingly tempering every minute part of his body. Over time, Yi Yun would possess a Seamless Body. Of course, he was just at the beginning, and he still had a long way to go.

As he inhaled and exhaled, Yi Yun seemed to become one with the heaven and earth.

His flesh, blood, meridians and organs were like an iron block that was repeatedly forged. It was heated to a red-hot color as it was brutally tempered. During this tempering process, impurities were expelled, leaving behind parts that were more transparent and solid.

True Martial World - Chapter 835: Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake

"Bet?"

The Fire Cloud State disciples immediately had their interests perked up. Since the Black Wind Valley trial would last an entire month, being able to find some fun in the devouring and killing boredom while watching a show was something that they certainly would not refuse.

However, at that moment, a commotion happened high above them.

Rolling clouds were separated as a spirit cruiser suddenly appeared. As it descended, it stopped in a hovering position above Black Wind Valley.

Everyone saw that on the bow of the spirit cruiser stood Cang Mang.

Two Cang Mangs? With their eyesight, they could not tell the differences between the previous Cang Mang and the newly arrived Cang Mang. In terms of looks and aura, they were identical.

However, when the other Cang Mang stood up, the ‘Cang Mang’ on the spirit cruiser's bow transformed into a tiny snake before whizzing into Cang Mang's sleeves.

"It's Lord Cang Mang's avatar." When the disciples saw this, they were secretly amazed. It was not a cultivation technique, it was Cang Mang's talent. It was unknown how many snakes were hidden on his body, with every snake capable of being his avatar.

"It's the people from the Phoenix Firmiana State. They are done with the Ancient Fey Edifice's test and they have been brought here to Black Wind Valley as well." The Fire Cloud State disciples quickly saw that the spirit cruiser's human cargo was the group of disciples from the Phoenix Firmiana State.

With more than a hundred states in the Luo clan, the disciples from every state that were going to participate in the Luo Divine Hall trials would participate in various forms of training. And since the Fire Cloud State and Phoenix Firmiana State were considered neighbors and were assigned to be under Cang Mang's watch, it was normal for their tests and training to be the same.

Back at the Ancient Fey Edifice, their tests were staggered. However, as the Black Wind Valley trials lasted for an entire month, with only a day's difference between the disciples of the two states, most of their time would be spent training together.

Every state's disciples were already engaged in an intense competition amongst themselves. As for different states, the competition was even more intense.

Seeing the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples arrive, the Fire Cloud State disciples ignored Yi Yun and all of their faces turned sullen.

"From this moment on, the Fire Cloud State and Phoenix Firmiana State's cultivators will undergo training in Black Wind Valley together. The assessment criteria is the same. In one month’s time, those who reach the fifth level are those who have passed. Those who can't reach the fifth level, you might as well not go to the Luo Divine Hall for the trials, so as to not waste my Luo clan's resources. At the Ancient Fey Edifice, the overall results of the disciples from both states are about the same. It will now depend on the results of the Black Wind Valley training." Cang Mang's cold voice resounded.

Upon hearing this, the Fire Cloud State disciples immediately had ugly expressions.

Although it was said that their results were about the same, everyone knew that just Yi Yun alone had given them, the Fire Cloud State, a huge lead.

If their overall results were better than the Phoenix Firmiana State, that would only be natural. By saying that it was about the same, that meant that other than Yi Yun and Gu Luo's results being extremely outstanding, the other disciples had results worse than the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples. Or else, how could it just be about the same?

"What Lord Cang Mang said makes me the most ashamed."

Ran Yu secretly clenched his fists. His results at the Ancient Fey Edifice were far from ideal. He was inferior to Yi Yun and Gu Luo as well. Of course, there was no way that he had beaten Luo Tian.

At Black Wind Valley, this was his area of expertise. He could not lose again.

The training of the two state's disciples was administered by Cang Mang. By putting the disciples from the two states together, and saying such instigating words, it was simply to agitate these disciples, making them compete till they had their heads broken in.

However, the path of martial arts was always about stepping on others to go higher. Either you stepped on thousands of people to stride up towards the heavens, or you would be trampled beneath the feet of others and be destroyed.

Hence, when they heard Cang Mang's words, be it the Fire Cloud State disciples or the Phoenix Firmiana State disciples, who had Luo Tian as their leader, they were all full of fighting spirit.

For Luo Tian, his results at the Ancient Fey Edifice test was indeed extremely outstanding. However, with Yi Yun's accomplishments before him, his amazing results did not appear as shocking as it should have been.

On the journey to Black Wind Valley, Luo Tian was pumping himself up. Even without Cang Mang saying anything, he was bent on ruthlessly trampling Ran Yu, Gu Luo and Yi Yun beneath him!

At that moment, a sharp roar was heard from Black Wind Valley.

Everyone was alarmed as they lowered their heads quickly.

"What's the commotion?"

Seeing the black gas rolling in Black Wind Valley as though it was a tidal wave, the surging black gas seemed to produce the sounds of a tsunami.

These disciples were startled having heard this rumbling sound.

The degenerated Blood Dragon was already dead, and Black Wind Valley was a land formed after its corpse rotted. However, from the commotion, it was as though a True Dragon had been revived?

"Your luck isn't too bad." Cang Mang suddenly said.

"Oh? What does Lord Cang Mang mean?'

"If your luck isn't good, you might not even have the chance of encountering it despite reaching the deep depths of Black Wind Valley. However, now, you can see its true face. Aren't you curious about what the true opportunity hidden in Black Wind Valley is? This is it." Cang Mang said.

Upon hearing Cang Mang's words, everyone immediately became extremely curious.

This commotion… was the opportunity of Black Wind Valley?

At that moment, the black gases turned more turbulent as the sharp roar approached them.

With a boom, the concentrated black gas was separated, and a red snake that looked as crystalline as blood jade was seen swimming in it! The snake's head had a single horn and the moment it appeared, it made everyone feel like their scalps had exploded.

What an intense foul blood aura!

"That is the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake. It is naturally condensed out of the blood dragon black gas in Black Wind Valley. It is considered to be a unique treasure of Black Wind Valley. It isn't a living creature itself, but it is exceptionally quick-witted. It usually stays below the seventh level and it seldom shows its face." Cang Mang said.

Black Wind Valley's treasure!

"Hehe, eating it is equivalent to absorbing the blood dragon black gas for three years. Furthermore, it contains a strand of the degenerated Blood Dragon's aura. However, this sort of thing typically isn't used for eating." Cang Mang said in a direct manner.

Si!

Upon hearing that the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake contained the degenerated Blood Dragon's aura, many disciple drew cold gasps!

That was the bloodline of a True Dragon. Even if it was just a strand that could not be any less, it would still be amazing!

People like Luo Tian and Ran Yu already had their eyes lit up.

Even a living zombie like Gu Luo also had a strange glint in his eyes.

As for Lie Ya and company, they only revealed envious looks before their faces turned bitter as they shook their heads.

What good luck was this? Even without Luo Tian and company present, it was impossible for them to reach the seventh level. There was no way that they could capture the Intermediary Spirit Blood Snake.

If everyone could not do it, it would have been fine, but it was highly possible that Luo Tian and company were able to reach the seventh level and below.

The inequality and imbalance left an astringent taste in these disciples' hearts.
