Gao Wu: Others practice martial arts, but you cultivate immortality?

......

Within the grand formation, Chu Yuan's body was surrounded by a sharp aura that cut deep lines into the ground, a manifestation of the full operation of the Gengjin Yuandao Technique!

Blood patterns appeared on his body, but they were not the result of the Blood Sea Soul Locking Array being activated.

Instead, the body couldn't withstand the intense energy infusion and began to crack!

Tian Tian looked at him with concern, wanting to say something, but worried about disturbing Chu Yuan's cultivation...

What's the use of cramming at the last minute?

"On the contrary, it will damage its own foundation..." Liu Yun sighed, not very optimistic about it.

She admitted that Chu Yuan was very strong, and the great formation he had set up was equally powerful.

But that Tong Han... was never on the same level as them, so they shouldn't be the ones dealing with him!

Even if Chu Yuan improves his cultivation level slightly, what can he do?

"That's still better than you all sitting here sighing and waiting to die." Xiang Ning casually remarked, glancing at the horde of blood beasts outside the great formation;

They're completely trapped here now!

Although there are no fifth-realm blood beasts in the blood beast horde, there are quite a few fourth-realm ones!

Even if they wanted to break through and escape... no one but Chu Yuan could do it...

All they can do is wait for Tong Han to return and decide their fate...

After Chu Yuan finished refining a Blood Pill and a Spirit Nourishing Pill, the cracks on his body surface increased even more!

Driven by immense external forces, he has now reached the peak of Foundation Establishment and can no longer advance!

However, the time until the spiritual liquid in his body condenses into a golden core is still far away.

The quantity is sufficient, but the quality is lacking... This fatal flaw cannot be remedied by either Blood Pills or Spirit Nourishing Pills!

It's not something you can achieve a breakthrough by shouting "bonds" or "power," or by seeing someone die in front of you...

In fact, he has only been cultivating for a month, yet he is already close to the Golden Core realm.

The foundation wasn't solid to begin with...

"Does anyone have any pills that can help you break through to a higher realm? I'm willing to buy or trade!" Chu Yuan suddenly spoke up, looking first at Xiang Ning;

Xiang Ning paused for a moment, then gave him a helpless look.

The other Inner Breath Realm trial participants were also somewhat helpless;

Most people break through to the Inner Breath Realm by forcibly using methods that force growth. They don't even have time to repair their martial arts foundation in a short period of time, so there is no possibility of breaking through to the next realm!

Of course, they wouldn't prepare any pills for breaking through to a higher realm...

Seeing that no one responded for a long time, Chu Yuan became secretly irritated;

So there isn't one after all... In that case, we can't stay here!

Otherwise, once Tong Han returns, the Blood Sea Soul-Locking Array won't be able to stop him at all...

As for the others, Chu Yuan was powerless to help them.

He has already protected them with the Blood Sea Soul Locking Array several times, now... it's time for them to find their own way out!

"Chu Yuan, although I don't have any pills to help me break through to the next realm... I do have a Boiling Source Pill. I wonder if it will be of any use?" A plain-looking Inner Breath Realm trial participant said hesitantly.

Before Chu Yuan could ask, Xiang Ning said with a hint of anger, "Boiling Source Pill? Why don't you take it yourself?"

The boy remained silent, then retreated.

"What is Boiling Source Pill?"

"Explosive-type pills are generally used in desperate situations, which can temporarily raise a martial artist's physical strength and energy intensity by one major realm."

But the backlash is extremely terrifying! After the battle, a person is almost crippled! Xiang Ning explained, "Chu Yuan, even if you improve by a major realm now, you still can't beat Tong Han;

So... it's not worth it!

Chu Yuan weighed his options in his mind, and then he heard Xiang Ning say in a low voice, "You are very strong! Perhaps you have surpassed the Inner Breath Realm!"

These blood beasts on the periphery can't stop you!

If all else fails... then you'll have to break out on your own!

Chu Yuan was somewhat surprised: "Then what are you going to do?"

"...There's always a way."

Chu Yuan shook his head and looked at the boy: "How do you want to trade?"

The boy said with a hint of self-deprecation, "No need for a deal... Anyway, it's just us, the burdens, who benefit."

Then, he threw a jade bottle directly at Chu Yuan.

Boiling point pills were detected;

Transformable into—Epiphyllum indicum!

Today's conversions: 1!

"Transform!"

[Conversion complete!]

Chu Yuan gripped the jade bottle tightly without making a sound, glancing at the round, dark red pill inside.

It remains unclear what effect it will have.

But it must be something like the Boiling Source Pill, which is: to pay some price to temporarily enhance one's strength!

How much efficiency will be improved? What will be the cost?

I don't know, but it certainly won't be pleasant!

The name alone made Chu Yuan feel somewhat heavy-hearted;

The epiphyllum... blooms for a fleeting moment, reaching its peak of beauty before withering away!

Will I die after eating it?

In short, this is something you should avoid if you don't have to, but Chu Yuan feels it's hard not to use it...

"Chu Yuan, look!" Tian Tian's anxious cry suddenly pulled him back to reality;

Looking up, one could see blood-red clouds bursting open in the far distance of the sky! Brilliant and beautiful, the entire secret realm seemed to be shrouded in a layer of red!

The heavens and earth trembled, and a strange sound entered my mind;

It sounded like a mournful cry, like a sob, and it made people feel a sense of despair.

The ground shook, and Chu Yuan's figure became somewhat unsteady.

As he extended his divine sense, he saw a chaotic and unsettling scene everywhere.

The mountains are collapsing, and giant trees are being swallowed by cracks in the earth!

The blood beasts surrounding the formation suddenly prostrated themselves, as if in pain, and huge tears dripped down, wetting their fur.

Then... blood rain began to fall from the sky!

Chu Yuan reached out and caught the raindrops in his hand. He could feel the faint power of blood energy contained within them, but it wasn't real blood...

Only then did the enormous explosion sound, carried by the fierce wind, reach us!

Everyone covered their ears, but blood still seeped from between their fingers, clearly indicating that they had been injured by the shock!

Chu Yuan suddenly felt relieved and put down the Epiphyllum Flower Guide in his hand. Now he didn't have to worry about it anymore.

Even if I consumed ten Epiphyllum Essence Pills in such a grand spectacle... what could I possibly accomplish?

......

"Hahaha! Great Qin! Great Qin! This is just the beginning!" Tong Han and Qiu stood together, admiring their masterpiece;

His hearty laughter made Qiu's eardrums tingle.

Qiu looked at the apocalyptic scene everywhere in silence, and a sadness welled up in his heart.

There is his own sorrow, and there is the world's sorrow...

This is, after all, his hometown.

But... even if it's destroyed, it's better than leaving it to the human race!

Who gave you permission to be in human territory?

Who told you to be captured by the humans?

After venting, Tong Han took a deep breath: "You can do what you want to do now."

"What about the rest of the Divine Sealing Crystals?"

"I will wait until a sufficiently powerful expert from the Qin Dynasty enters before detonating it!"

Qiu fell silent again: "Don't forget what you promised me!"

"Don't worry! The organization has already arranged a place for you..."
