Chapter 5385 Rhino Pizzle and Rhino b.a.l.l.s
Long Chen instantly recognized the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros at the front, along with the bronze chariot they had encountered on the way. Joining them were several other factions that had attempted to provoke him, only to flee in terror from the Qilin Horn Heaven Swallowing Sparrow.
In total, six factions had gathered to block their path. Since they had traveled faster, they arrived first. Most likely, they were unwilling to accept the loss and were waiting here as a show of might to the Wind G.o.d Sea Pavilion.
“Horned Swallower, charge right at them. If they dare to get in your way, kill them!” Long Chen commanded, waving his hand.
Evilmoon was already resting on Long Chen’s shoulder, surrounded by faint starlight.
Thanks to the Radiant World Star Crystal, Long Chen could now activate his starry sea agilely. With his ability to fill his body with astral energy whenever he desired, he could unleash his full power in an instant.
This ability made his sneak attacks extra deadly. He could kill people before they could even think of defending.
Long Chen almost grumbled about not having any opponent to test his new ability on when so many experts appeared in his way, setting his blood ablaze. Right now, he was under no pressure. He felt invincible with Ye Lingkong’s support and knew any powerful seniors among the foes would be taken care of, leaving him free to fight their juniors.
Horned Swallower spread its wings, a seven-colored divine light swirling around its tail. Its blood qi ignited, raising its aura wildly. Across from it, the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros let out an enraged roar, clearly ready for revenge. It, too, entered a berserk state.
Long Chen gripped Evilmoon, his starry sea swirling within him. The next moment, specks of starlight flowed into Evilmoon.
At this moment, Tang Wan-er held her sword, and all the Hidden Dragon warriors summoned their manifestations, their wind energy rising.
After experiencing the baptism of blood and fire, they didn’t cower under the pressure of so many experts. Instead, there was a burning fighting spirit in their eyes.
Horned Swallower accelerated, its aura growing fiercer. After all, the Heaven Swallowing bloodline was known for their ferocity. However, after it became Ye Lingkong’s contractual divine beast, the two influenced each other, resulting in its character no longer being so violent. However, just two days with Long Chen had reawakened its violet blood, igniting its fierce desire for a b.l.o.o.d.y rampage.
“Instead of revealing your power here, why not try something more productive?” The Earth Cauldron’s voice rang out just as Long Chen was about to test his skills against these powerful experts to gauge his recent improvements.
“Something more productive?” Long Chen echoed, puzzled.
To him, a fight with half-step Divine Emperor experts was the perfect test of his strength.
In any case, a half-step Divine Emperor like Liao Qingyu wasn’t really a fighter. She was much weaker than a true half-step Divine Emperor, let alone an existence like the Silver Hair Void Crusher.
Long Chen felt confident he could face her. If he could match her in combat, it would prove that he was one step closer to the Silver Hair Void Crusher’s level. However, the Earth Cauldron felt like this kind of test was not worth it.
“The likes of Liao Qingyu rely entirely on the pressure of their realm to crush people. Since you’re immune to Emperor pressure, defeating her won’t actually prove anything,” the Earth Cauldron replied.
Long Chen considered this and realized the Earth Cauldron must have accurately a.s.sessed his strength, deciding he could handle Liao Qingyu. If the Earth Cauldron was so confident, he saw no reason to doubt it.
“Then senior, what do you have in mind?” asked Long Chen.
“Last time, when you gathered the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros’s essence blood, I noticed that its bloodline power was extremely pure. The Fullmoon race’s sacred energy has always been valuable, even by ancient standards. I just remembered a pill formula from the primal chaos era that can refine an unimaginable pill—but it requires a specific ingredient from the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros,” said the Earth Cauldron.
“What ingredient?”
“Cough, it’s pizzle and b.a.l.l.s.”
“What? Are you joking?!” Evilmoon burst out. “You old cauldron, what are you up to? You want me, Dragonbone Evilmoon, to slice off a rhino’s pizzle and b.a.l.l.s? Are you kidding me?”
The Earth Cauldron snorted. “Don’t think I didn’t notice how much essence blood you ‘borrowed’ last time when you cut its flesh. If you’re going to steal benefits like that, you should at least put in some work.”
“I... I earned that blood, didn’t I?!” raged Evilmoon.
Long Chen couldn’t help but smirk. No wonder the blood count had seemed off before. He had a.s.sumed the rhino had staunched the flow quickly, but it turned out Evilmoon had taken a little extra for itself.
“Then let me put it like this to you. The pizzle and b.a.l.l.s are where its sacred energy is concentrated,” the Earth Cauldron continued. “Absorb them, and you’ll get a hundred times the energy of its essence blood. Do you want it or not?”
“Are you not lying to me?” Evilmoon asked, surprised by that.
When it had absorbed a bit of the essence blood, it merely followed its instinct. But after tasting it, it realized that this essence blood contained sacred energy capable of rapidly loosening the seals in its body. It regretted not being able to absorb more. Now, hearing the chance to absorb a hundred times that amount, Evilmoon was sorely tempted.
The Earth Cauldron then said, “You can take half the essence blood. Leave the other half to me. I haven’t yet given Long Chen a proper gift, and this pill will be my formal gift for becoming his divine item.”
“Alright, it’s a deal!” shouted Evilmoon.
Long Chen, however, was left bewildered. Had they decided this without him, the master?
Just then, the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros’s horn blazed with light as it charged at the Qilin Horn Heaven Swallowing Sparrow. Two enormous bodies crashed into each other.
The intense clash shook heaven and earth, sending devastating qi waves in every direction. Perhaps due to a previous injury or simply being weaker, the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros was overpowered, even as the Qilin Horn Heaven Swallowing Sparrow split its focus to protect those on its back.
As the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros was thrown back, its legacy-pa.s.sing treasure was revealed to Long Chen.
“Pretty big!” Long Chen shouted, grinning.
Without missing a beat, starlight swirled around Long Chen as he raised his saber. The other side had sent its treasure right to his door; it would be a shame not to reciprocate.
In one swift stroke, rain of blood descended as the ma.s.sive rhino pizzle and rhino b.a.l.l.s were severed from the Fullmoon Gold Horn Rhinoceros, leaving it screaming in pain.
