Chapter 2682: Chapter 2656: Rapid Breathing! (Seven Updates)
If all these treasures are refined and devoured, Ye Chen’s strength could surge several times over! He might even directly break through several smaller divisions of realms!
However, even so, Ye Chen did not stop and continued his journey to seek more treasures!
He knew that he had not yet reached his limits!
To absorb the Divine Origin Essence from treasures to the maximum extent, he must always devour them in his peak state!
…
Three hours later, Ye Chen arrived at a glacier.
Cold air pervaded, freezing everything in sight. As icy winds swept by, even Ye Chen felt a stinging pain on his face.
If an ordinary martial artist in the Disaster Slaying realm were here, they would likely freeze to death instantly.
At this moment, Ye Chen treated the piercing cold winds as if they were nothing, standing in an ice cavern and staring fixedly at an ice wall in front of him.
His gaze burned intensely, and deep within his eyes, there was an uncontrollable and desperate longing!
At this moment, his entire body seemed like it was on the verge of boiling!
What is hidden behind this ice wall…?
It was something hundreds of times more potent than the bloodline resonance triggered by treasures like Divine Flame Stones and Primordial Soul Pearls!
He suddenly drew the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword, shouting in a low voice, and slashed fiercely at the ice wall!
A single strike like this, if performed within a Divine Kingdom, would be enough to carve a ten-thousand-foot abyss…
Yet, even with the overwhelming weight of the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword, it only left a three-inch mark on the ice wall.
How hard!
This ice wall could be considered one of the most unyielding objects even within the Divine Origin Secret Realm!
This is why almost none of the monstrous disciples from other Divine Kingdoms came here seeking treasures.
Ye Chen gazed at the sword mark, his pupils constricting. Yet, he did not give up and continued wielding the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword, persistently striking the ice wall!
Soon, thanks to Ye Chen’s efforts, he managed to carve out a ten-inch-deep opening in the ice wall!
A blood-red radiance burst forth before Ye Chen’s eyes!
A droplet of blood shimmered and pulsated within the ice wall, unmoving, carrying the aura of a Sixth-level Dao Integration realm essence!
This droplet of blood was surrounded by a magnificent seven-layered blood halo, emanating from deep within.
Ye Chen’s breath became rapid in an instant!
Such an incredibly rich Divine Blood Essence!
It was ten times stronger than all the treasures he had acquired previously, combined!
“Ancient Medical God, what is this?” Ye Chen stammered…
Even the Ancient Medical God could no longer remain composed!
He laughed wildly in sheer excitement, saying, “Kid, this is a droplet of Divine Origin Essence Blood! Moreover, it carries a seven-layered blood halo! For you, even ordinary Divine Origin Essence Blood is an immensely powerful treasure, far superior to something like a Divine Flame Stone! But a seven-layered blood halo—only the highest grade of Divine Origin Essence Blood possesses this!”
“There are two ways to devour Divine Origin Essence Blood. One is slow—if a chaotic martial artist spent hundreds of years, they might manage to absorb a mere tenth of the essence from this droplet of blood. The other way requires an extremely powerful bloodline as leverage!”
“Kid, if your body didn’t contain the reincarnation bloodline, just attempting to devour this droplet of Divine Origin Essence Blood would take at least ten thousand years. However, with the reincarnation bloodline as leverage, the absorption rate would be thousands of times faster! More importantly, once you devour this droplet, your bloodline will undergo direct ascension, reaching an unimaginable concentration!”
“And as for your strength—well, even I can’t estimate how much it will improve. However, I can promise you one thing: once you absorb this Divine Origin Essence Blood, you may have the opportunity to challenge the Dragon Suppressing Palace’s chosen representatives!”
Ye Chen nearly went mad with delight when he heard this! His excitement was uncontainable!
He stretched out his hand, reaching for the Divine Origin Essence Blood. However, the blood-red radiance emitted by the droplet of blood exerted overwhelming pressure on him!
Ye Chen’s expression changed, gritting his teeth fiercely, his entire body erupting with tremendous force as veins bulged, pushing forward to seize the Divine Origin Essence Blood.
His hand gradually drew closer to the droplet of blood, but his bones began shattering one by one, his flesh breaking apart.
This occurred despite him possessing the reincarnation bloodline and having activated the Scarlet Dust Divine Bloodline and his unstable Soaring Wind Divine Vein!
If he did not possess his heaven-defying reincarnation bloodline, based on Ye Chen’s current level of cultivation, he would not be able to approach this droplet of Divine Origin Essence Blood at all.
After two whole hours, Ye Chen finally managed to grasp the droplet of essence blood within his palm.
A satisfied smile slowly surfaced on his face. Now, he could properly devour it, fully breaking through his cultivation and attaining power capable of battling within the Chaos Realm!
Just as Ye Chen was preparing to leave the ice cavern and find a secluded place to commence training, the sound of footsteps echoed from outside the cave!
Ye Chen’s pupils contracted, and his face instantly paled as beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead!
“At such a time, someone is coming?”
Ye Chen cursed inwardly, frustrated. Just moments ago, his entire focus had been on retrieving the Divine Origin Essence Blood—he had been careless!
Soon, three men entered the ice cavern simultaneously.
The three men wore similar clothing, their bodies emitting a faint blue divine radiance—the unmistakable symbol of the Fourth Divine Country!
Each of the three bore distinct appearances, yet they shared one striking characteristic: extreme arrogance etched into their expressions!
Moreover, these three men were all chaotic martial artists, and each one possessed a terrifying aura!
The leading figure, a young man with slender eyes and sharp features, occasionally radiated silver electrical flashes deep within his pupils. With his pale complexion teetering between refined beauty and eerie delicacy, the aura he exuded sent shivers down Ye Chen’s heart with every step he took!
It felt as though Death itself was approaching!
Ye Chen quickly regained composure, his expression outwardly calm, though internally, he was roaring with rage!
Why did these people have to show up now of all times?
If only they had come a few breaths later, he would have already escaped with the Divine Origin Essence Blood and elevated his power!
These three men were true disciples of Chengfeng Sect, a first-class force within the Fourth Divine Country! Unlike the Seventh Divine Nation, the disciples of other Divine Countries entered the Divine Origin Secret Realm in larger numbers, making encounters far more frequent.
The leading figure, the slender-eyed, tall and gaunt young man, was named Wu Keren—the first true disciple of Chengfeng Sect, whose cultivation level was at the Third Level of Chaos Realm!
The second man, of medium build and dark complexion, with average and unremarkable features, was named Zhao Chunwu, his cultivation level at the peak of Chaos Second Layer Heaven.
The last man, a ruggedly muscular figure with prominent temple muscles, sharp tiger-like eyes radiating with divine light, and an exotic beast tattoo on his neck, carried a fierce and domineering aura. His name was Chen Yida, and his cultivation level was Chaos Second Layer Heaven.
When the trio laid eyes on Ye Chen, they were momentarily stunned, their eyes flashing with incredulity, as if witnessing something impossibly strange!
Could there really be a Great Void martial artist here?
How could someone at the Great Void realm survive in this place?
Chen Yida frowned, his tone unapologetically mocking, “Someone with such pitiful cultivation is wandering around in the Divine Origin Secret Realm? Is this some kind of joke? How did someone like him even get in here? And now he’s supposed to compete with us for resources?”
