Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

Su Chen sat cross-legged in the center of the pool.

As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth contained in the Dragon Transformation Pill continuously circulates throughout the body's meridians.

Finally, it slowly gathers in the dantian.

Su Chen then realized what a great opportunity this pill represented.

To be honest, this old demon king is really generous.

This elixir is probably no worse than the cultivation materials that Li Ziran gave me before.

But he was Li Ziran's grandson-in-law.

Ultimately, Su Chen had no connection whatsoever with this Demon King.

Although he had done him a favor by saving the princess.

However, the fact that he was willing to give up such good items along with that protective magic weapon made Su Chen feel that he was indeed worth befriending.

Unfortunately, with my current abilities, I am unable to fulfill my promise to help the demon race find the continent.

A surge of heat rushed through the meridians, surging and crashing.

Then came an even more violent surge of spiritual energy.

broken!!!

This Dragon Transformation Pill is an extremely yang and powerful substance.

Unfortunately, his own wisp of heavenly tribulation power was one of the most yang and yang in this world.

The two flames collided.

Not only did they fail to break through the barrier of the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, but they also failed to break through it.

On the contrary, it is easy to damage the meridians.

"Young master?"

The figure sitting on the blue stone by the pond stirred.

Yue Li was still worried, so she came looking for her.

After all, no matter how you look at it, the fluctuations of spiritual energy around Su Chen were somewhat strange.

Seeing Su Chen's exhausted expression, one could guess what was going on.

"Young master, what's wrong with you...?"

Yue Li quickly asked a question.

"That's right, the imbalance of Yin and Yang makes this supreme Yang spiritual power truly domineering."

Su Chen squeezed out these words through gritted teeth.

However, this time, it was the exact opposite of the time with Yue Li.

That time with Yue Li, the cold and dampness was too intense.

This time, Su Chen's energy was extremely intense.

Yue Li was stunned for a moment.

"Young Master, you saved Yue Li once before."

"This time, it's Yue Li's turn to save the young master."

Yue Li quickly said something.

"this..."

Su Chen was still somewhat hesitant.

After all, he had cultivated with this demon princess several times.

It's not like we're in a romantic relationship.

It's somewhat unpleasant.

"It's nothing!"

"This was Yue Li's initiative..."

"You don't need to take responsibility, young master."

"Furthermore, Yue Li doesn't resist dual cultivation with the young master; on the contrary..."

"I really like it..."

It must be said that the women of the demon race are indeed not as pretentious as the women of the human race.

They are straightforward and passionate, daring to love and hate.

They don't even hide things like dual cultivation.

The lava from the other side of the crater, from a great distance, warmed this whole area.

The blue robe slipped down...

The water in the pool was very cold.

The contrast between cool and hot was surprisingly pleasant.

Yue Li's jade-like foot dipped into the deep blue water.

The yin-like demonic power within his body, which had just refined the demon emperor's demon core, happened to be able to neutralize the heat emanating from Su Chen's body.

The graceful curves are on full display.

And for some reason, this girl in front of me is being unusually proactive today.

The little hand was very restless in the water.

Their probing piqued Su Chen's interest.

To be any more polite would be disrespectful to the princess before us.

It made the princess seem like she lacked charm.

Su Chen pulled her into a tight embrace.

A powerful feeling of suffocation accompanied the fusion of two spiritual energies.

This gave Yue Li a strange sense of satisfaction.

"Young Master, Yue Li has only one request."

"That means we shouldn't rush things like we did last time."

"Since you're not going to take responsibility, you can be a little bolder."

This statement is essentially an explicit implication.

This princess is innocent and well-behaved, yet possesses a certain contrast.

Su Chen couldn't stand it anymore.

Moreover, it seems unlikely that we can simply rush through this matter this time.

After all, such strong pure yang spiritual power cannot be suppressed without taking several hours.

A fierce and violent battle.

The stronger the feeling of suffocation, the more desperately Yue Li wanted to accommodate it.

Su Chen felt that the chaotic fire in his meridians was gradually suppressed by more than half.

"It's done."

Su Chen narrowed his eyes.

That loose barrier was broken by this interplay of yin and yang.

...

This time, it took longer than the last time.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Su Chen felt a loud boom in his dantian.

The barrier that had confined him for so long shattered.

The vast and boundless spiritual energy, like a burst dam, poured into every part of his body.

Late stage of Nascent Soul realm!!!

It actually worked.

Su Chen slowly opened his eyes.

The crimson power of the heavenly tribulation in his eyes was even more intense than before.

Yue Li leaned against a rock by the pool, panting.

Her long, black hair clung wetly to her cheeks.

Su Chen then realized that his breakthrough had actually exhausted the girl.

She had no strength left and collapsed in Su Chen's arms.

After taking the Dragon Transformation Pill, he entered the Spirit Pool again.

He broke through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm in one fell swoop.

Add to that furious blue robe with scales.

Was this trip to the Demon City worthwhile?

After a few days, Su Chen decided not to linger in the demon realm any longer.

It's impossible for me to say I have no feelings for Yue Li at all.

We've spent so much time together.

We went through thick and thin together.

Moreover, Yue Li has always been very gentle with me.

Her passionate and outspoken personality actually made Su Chen somewhat fond of her.

Even so, Su Chen did not choose to be with this girl.

After all, the current situation for both humans and demons is complex.

They had been enemies for a thousand years.

If he were to actually end up with the demon princess...

It seems that in the future, the human race will no longer have a place.

Unless Su Chen really manages to give the demon race a place on the Xuanhuang Continent someday.

Su Chen could even influence the conflict between the demon race and the human race on the Xuanhuang Continent.

If at that time, this girl's cultivation has not stagnated and her lifespan has not ended.

Even becoming Daoist partners is not out of the question.

Yue Li was naturally aware of Su Chen's thoughts.

It sounds absurd and cruel, but in reality, pursuing the path to immortality is a perfectly normal thing.

They escorted Su Chen all the way to the teleportation array.

"Young master, you've left."

Yue Li lowered her head, her toes scraping against a pebble on the ground.

I wonder when we'll meet again.

Su Chen looked at the girl.

This is what a girl from the demon race is like.

What's on your mind is written all over your face; you can't hide it.

"See you again."

"I still owe your father a favor."

"From now on, the demon race will need to find a place to settle down in the human realm."

"I'll have to bother you again, of course."

...

A stream of spiritual energy shot into the teleportation array.

The sea breeze, carrying a salty, fishy smell, blew against my face in gusts.

I've spent these days in that hellish place at the bottom of the volcano.

The sudden smell of the sea breeze actually felt quite welcoming.

That deep blue, boundless sea stretches to the horizon.

The sea was completely empty; not even a single bird could be seen.

Su Chen's escape light skimmed the sea surface and sped towards Tian Shu Star City.

In fact, Su Chen no longer needs to restrain his cultivation.

With the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul stage, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, and various magical treasures and techniques.

Even if a powerful expert at the Void Refinement stage wanted to kill Su Chen, Su Chen would certainly have the ability to protect himself.

Moreover, there are very few cultivators in the Void Refinement stage on the Xuanhuang Continent.
