Chapter 982: Breakthroughs!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Vile creature, dispel the killing intent in your heart. You can’t touch this person. He’s mine.”
Perhaps she felt that this sentence was not enough, so she added, “I want to bring him to see Master, no matter what, so if you dare to disrupt his breakthroughs, although I can’t kill you, I can still make you suffer for all eternity!”
Then, she took a few steps forward and went over to Ye Chen’s side. She took out her sword and a few runes appeared in her left hand.
The runes flickered with a strange golden light, and ancient words seemed to emanate them.
These runes were personally given to her by her master as a life-saving trump card.
There were a few of her master’s powers within these runes, which would allow her to go toe-to-toe with a Supreme Emperor realm expert!
No matter the price, she had to protect Ye Chen, as he was the only person in the past thousand years that matched her master’s description of that fated person.
At this moment, Ye Chen had no idea what was happening outside, and he was fully focused on breaking through. He had already reached the origin realm without encountering any obstacles, and he was still going strong.
The Stone-Spirit Calabash was too heaven-defying!
This was a heaven-defying treasure that could only be consumed by a Supreme Emperor realm expert. Now that it had been taken by Ye Chen, who was a saint king realm, the effect could only be even more terrifying.
Ye Chen could feel that his body seemed to have transformed into a vast starry sky, and the energy that filled his body were the stars in the starry sky!
He even felt that his dantian had become the center of the universe, and all the energy was revolving around his dantian. The geniuses of the Kunlun Mountains might need a year to a decade to advance a major realm, but Ye Chen had done so in mere minutes.
However, Ye Chen was behind when it came to the starting line of the path of cultivation. After all, he had only cultivated for five to six years.
Before Duan Huai An brought him to the Kunlun Mountains, he had no idea what cultivation was, and his first few years of cultivation were filled with mockery and disdain for his mortal roots.
He had been branded a piece of trash with mortal roots who could never achieve anything in his life!
Fortunately, he had a heaven-defying existence like the Samsara Graveyard. Furthermore, based on the words spoken by that voice, his bloodline was in a dormant state. Once it awakened, it would supersede everyone in the Kunlun Mountains!
At this moment, Ye Chen was bursting with confidence.
The blood dragon that coiled around Ye Chen flew back up into the sky in preparation to absorb the endless tribulation lightning.
Now, Ye Chen had broken through to the fourth level of the origin realm, and his breakthroughs had gradually slowed down.
He had also absorbed more than half of the Stone-Spirit’s power.
Xue Qiye, who was in the Samsara Graveyard, also sensed the change in Ye Chen’s cultivation level. His eyes narrowed. “It seems that it was right to let this kid come to the Blood Spirit Secret Realm. I reckon that it won’t be long before he surpa.s.ses the origin realm.”
“After reaching the origin king realm, coupled with this brat’s trump cards and techniques, he should be able to handle Daoyuan realm cultivators, and some Supreme Emperor realm cultivators. Today can be considered a complete transformation for him.”
Xue Qiye’s expression was solemn as he appeared among the hundred tombstones.
“The kid whom we have placed all of our hopes on is getting closer and closer to the truth of that ancient war.”
“Whether we can get out of there alive is unknown. However, I’m willing to believe in this kid.”
“When he breaks through to the origin king realm, I should meet him. At that point, he should be barely qualified to learn my martial arts.”
“It’s time for the legacy of Xue Qiye to continue.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xue Qiye returned to the tombstone.
Outside, Ye Chen’s breakthrough continued, and an hour later, his cultivation level stabilized at the peak of the origin realm. He was only one step away from the origin king realm!
Ye Chen’s breathing quickened…
The origin king realm had seemed so far away previously, but now it was within reach. Once he broke through again, he would be able to fight Mr. Jing Shui on equal terms, and even put up a fight against Han Daoshan.
Those top families and sects would not be able to restrain him then.
However, Ye Chen’s body was also in a chaotic state. The speed of his breakthroughs were so fast that his body could not withstand it.
A trace of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.
It felt as if his body was on the verge of collapse, and the bones in his body creaked and even twisted.
It was as if his body was constantly being destroyed and reborn, before finally rea.s.sembling into a form that was suitable for his current cultivation level.
This process was painful, but Ye Chen enjoyed it immensely!
Specks of starlight emerged from his pores, lighting up the dark cave and turning it into what looked like a fairyland.
When Shi Zun and the young woman saw this scene, they were petrified.
They had never seen such a breakthrough phenomenon and were in awe.
“Origin king realm, break for me!”
Ye Chen knew very well that he could not delay any longer. If he still did not break through by the time that energy was completely exhausted, then the next breakthrough would likely happen much later.
The powers in his body seemed to explode. The Immortal Flames, the life rune, divine lightning, and even the power of body refining all fused together and shot towards the realm barrier like an arrow!
The arrow touched the barrier, causing a crack to appear.
Ye Chen’s body erupted like a volcano and his body started to tremble.
Puchi!
Ye Chen spat out a mouthful of blood. It was obvious that he had suffered a backlash.
“Again!”
Ye Chen did not want to give up and prepared himself for another attempt.
Rumble!
The sounds of explosions continued to ring out.
If he failed once, he would try again! Two failures? There was still a third time!
Ye Chen did not believe that failure could stop him. His entire body was covered in blood, and he looked extremely ferocious!
His eyes were filled with madness. Each time he attacked the realm barrier, he had to pay a large price.
Finally, on the twenty-first attempt, Ye Chen’s body almost shattered.
However, the realm barrier was broken, and endless energy surged into his dantian.
Ye Chen then realized that his dantian had completely changed. It kept expanding. If it was a lake before, it was now a mighty river!
This amount of spiritual energy and true qi here was enough to perform certain martial techniques thousands of times!
This feeling was too good!
“Yes! First level of the origin king realm!”
Ye Chen opened his eyes, overjoyed. The Stone-Spirit’s power was completely consumed, and it allowed him to advance two major realms in a row!
This gave him immense satisfaction.
He looked at the Stone-Spirit Calabash not far away. Just one mouthful of it was already so effective. If he swallowed another, would he reach the Supreme Emperor realm?
Sensing Ye Chen’s thoughts, Xue Qiye sneered. “Kid, the calabash can only help you break through once. It’s impossible for you to break through like this again. Moreover, breaking through too quickly is not a good thing. If your cultivation foundation is unstable, it will eventually lead to destruction!”
