Chapter 107 - Blazing Thunder Warrior!
The unexpected change stunned Long Chen.
He never would’ve imagined that the blood-red dragon print on his Human Core would spit out a ray of light that could turn the power of all ten Blazing Thunder Crystals blood-red.
He now sensed that he had gained control over the blood-red lightning and fire! Has the Blazing Thunder Crystal’s power merged with my Qi already?
The lightning and fire were already stuck to his Human Core, so the blood-red core was now burning with blood-red flames and also enveloped by blood-red lightning.
The Blazing Thunder Power had completely merged with his Dragon Soul Qi.
His Qi was now no longer only ten times stronger than regular Qi in terms of toughness and attacking power, but much, much more!
Time passed slowly as Long Chen’s body underwent the gentle tempering of the blood-red lightning and flames and the nourishment of Recovery. He slowly became stronger, and after almost two days, he felt like he was approaching a boundary.
Ling Xi suddenly sensed a fluctuation in his body and paled with fear. But in the blink of an eye, Long Chen tamed the power of fire and lightning once more. She watched him with amazement. “What secrets does Long Chen hold? He almost died when he first received the Inherited Blood Essence of the Primordial Dragon, but he somehow survived. This time, he initially wasn’t able to withstand the Blazing Thunder Crystal, but he magically survived once again. Looking at him, he must have already merged with the tenth crystal successfully ...”
Although Ling Xi was well-versed with many things, she still didn’t know what secrets his body held.
Long Chen could feel the boundary. As long as he could break through it, he would successfully complete the Blazing Thunder Combat Body and become a Blazing Thunder Warrior!
If this was in the past, the fluctuations of the Blazing Thunder Power in his body would have made it very difficult for him to break through.
This time, however, it was different. Now he was completely in control of the Blazing Thunder Power, and he let it slowly and gently strengthen his body. After some time, under his complete control, he naturally broke through.
Blazing Thunder Warrior...
He felt the power skyrocketing in his body.
Long Chen smiled faintly and stood up. He then opened his hand and discovered the image of a Blazing Thunder Crystal at the center of his palm, though it was different from normal because the image was blood-red.
He knew that it was the symbol of a Blazing Thunder Warrior. Now, in addition to his identity as a Dragon Warrior, he was also a Blazing Thunder warrior!
A Blazing Thunder Warrior possessed high-quality Qi and a very tough body. Long Chen currently possessed only a Level One Blazing Thunder Combat Body, but its effects were equivalent or beyond intermediate Black-tier Body Tempering Techniques!
Intermediate Black-tier combat techniques were hard to come by. Long Chen’s Burning Devil Sun Fist was from the mysterious steel token, and the single intermediate Black-tier Life Combat Technique he had was from the strange Recovery Fruit.
He was currently in a training exercise designed for Human Core Realm elites of the Turquoise family, and the champion’s prize was merely an intermediate Black-tier spirit sword and sword technique. This fact alone proved how precious an intermediate Black-tier skill was!
However, Long Chen was only at the initial Human Core Realm, yet he already possessed an intermediate Black-tier combat technique, Body Tempering Technique, and Life Combat Technique. And all of them were extraordinary too!
“Long Chen, have you become a Blazing Thunder Warrior?”
Ling Xi was overjoyed, circling happily around Long Chen and touching him.
He had already deactivated his Dragon Soul Transformation and reverted back to his harmless-looking human form.
He still had a concern about the Dragon Soul Transformation because other people thought he was a Beast Warrior. Now that he had entered the Human Core Realm, he needed to cultivate a new Beast Soul.
However, the feeling that other people got from his transformation was that he was still using a Yellow-tier beast’s Beast Soul. This was a very dumb issue to neglect, and it indirectly proved that Long Chen hadn’t even killed one Black-tier beast on his own!
He didn’t want to dwell on these matters for the moment. Now that he was finally a Blazing Thunder Warrior, a weight had lifted off him. With his current strength, although he might not be Feng Wutian’s equal, at least staying alive would be easy!
“Mhm! I now have a Blazing Thunder Combat Body! Xiao Xi, aren’t I awesome?”
Ling Xi scoffed at his smug look. “Tsk. I used to be ten thousand times stronger than you are right now. Only idiots like you would be so smug with such a small achievement. Don’t get too happy with yourself!”
In truth, she understood that based on how Long Chen had started with nothing, it was an impressive feat to have come so far.
His journey was more difficult than the journey she took to achieve the level she once reached.
She admired him from the depths of her heart but would never say it out loud. If I ever compliment this bastard, he’ll be so smug that his tail will be pointing at the sky.
Long Chen calculated that only about four days had passed since he entered the Heavenly Martial Realm. “I wonder if those stupid donkeys have found the Heart Eater yet. There’s still a lot of time left, and I haven’t used Blood Transmutation in a while. It’s a good time to explore and see if I can kill a few beasts!”
Emerging from his hiding spot, Long Chen headed to a mountain valley. This valley was long and narrow, with its deeper parts containing dark forests. A thick, heavy aura seemed to radiate from the deepest of the deepest parts.
He had already encountered a few beasts along the way, with the weakest one being a Category One Black-tier beast. There wasn’t even one Yellow-tier beast anywhere to be found.
If I use it well, the Heavenly Martial Realm can be heaven for me ... thought Long Chen as he ventured towards the deep parts of the forest. Under Ling Xi’s guidance, he soon encountered a few herds of social animals.
“This is called the Devil Ape. It is a Category One Black-tier beast, and it’s very strong with a lot of Qi in its blood. It should be very suitable for you ...”
“Really?”
Long Chen was also observing a few Devil Apes that were screeching and chasing each other from afar.
These beasts were more than three meters tall, covered in black fur, and had muscles as tough as boulders. “I approve! You all shall be my meal for today!”
Then, with a whoosh, he charged towards the few apes.
His strength had just recently skyrocketed, so although he was at the same cultivation level as the apes, he was infinitely better in combat. Therefore, they were no match for him. In less than fifteen minutes, they were all carcasses.
Using Blood Transmutation, Long Chen cultivated, though he soon started to frown.
“What’s the matter? Is there a breakthrough?” Ling Xi asked with concern.
Long Chen shook his head. “There isn’t. I’m guessing that the blood essence of a Category One Black-tier beast is no longer effective to me. I need to find higher-tiered beasts. It won’t matter how many Category One Black-tier beasts I get, I don’t think they’ll work anymore.
“It makes sense. When you were at the Fifth Draconic Stage, you consumed a Category Seven Yellow-tier Blood Lizard King. At the Eighth Draconic Stage, you consumed a Category One Black-tier beast, the Blue Eyed Snow Lion.”
By then, Long Chen had already taken the demonic cores of the Devil Apes. Next, he took out four transparent beads. “The demonic cores and beast souls of these guys can be sold for contribution points, so I won’t let them go to waste.”
Looking at the transparent beads in his hand, Ling Xi asked, “Since when did you have Soul Collecting Beads with you? Why haven’t I seen them?”
“Do I have to report every item I have on me to you?”
He grinned, and then he used the Soul Collecting Beads to extract the apes’ beast souls.
The dead beast souls were strongly attracted to the beads. They had to be stored in the beads, or they would dissipate.
“Long Chen, do you think I’m like these beast souls trapped in a Soul Collecting Bead?” she suddenly asked, sounding a little sad.
Long Chen froze, then he answered, “You silly girl, why are you overthinking? You’re ten thousand times cuter than these wild beasts. Don’t compare yourself to them. Also, it’s not like you have been in that sword all your life.”
In reality, the Ling Xi Sword was also an extremely mysterious object. Long Chen knew that Ling Xi was extremely powerful at some point. If even she couldn’t escape the sword, then it had to be some mysterious treasure. It was just that both Ling Xi and Long Chen couldn’t discover the secrets it held.
As for the name “Ling Xi Sword,” that was just a name that she had casually given it.
After collecting the beast souls, Long Chen started to search for his next target.
Within a day, he killed many Category Two Black-tier beasts and collected many awesome items. “I’m going to be so rich! Xiao Xi, can you count how many contribution points I’ll get from these?”
“If you sell the demonic cores and beast souls to the Lingwu family, Category One Black-tier beasts usually go for two to three points, while Category Two Black-tier beasts probably will be about ten points each ...”
Back at their quarters, Ling Xi usually killed her boredom by reading books about the Lingwu family stored in Long Chen’s room. At this point, she likely knew more than him about the Lingwu family.
“So does that mean I have more than fifty contribution points by now?”
More money! Long Chen was as happy as a man who had struck gold.
However, using Blood Transmutation on Category Two Black-tier demonic beasts had barely done anything for him. He still hadn’t reached the intermediate Human Core Realm after consuming many beasts.
“I wonder if their search for the Supreme Purity Sword has ended. Lingqing has learned the Illusory Seven Killings Sword Technique, so if it’s possible, I would like to give her the Supreme Purity Sword Dao when she reaches the Human Core Realm. As her older cousin, I should be working hard to help her.
“But before that, I should go look for a Category Three Black-tier beast. I refuse to believe that a beast stronger than a late Human Core Realm cultivator won’t be enough for me to advance my cultivation level!”
