"Ling Chen, what happened?"
After the Red Sky Sword Saint had dispersed, Xia Yunxin and others from the Azure Dragon Sect also ca forward. They had all witnessed Ling Chen apparently receiving a considerable fortune.
Ling Chen briefly recounted the situation to everyone.
"I never would’ve thought that in this world, sothing like possession actually exists!"
This revelation greatly startled everyone present. To seize soone else’s consciousness and inhabit another’s body was unheard of. The demon of the Saint Realm was truly terrifying.
"Speaking of which, where are those guys from the Green-faced Demon Sect?" Ling Chen looked around, but he did not see anyone from the Green-faced Demon Sect.
"They slipped away while we were distracted," Xia Yunxin said.
"If they’ve run away, so be it. Those guys can’t cause any major problems now," Ling Chen said, not too concerned about them. Originally, Xie Zhiqiu had been the biggest threat, but now he was possessed by the Undying Old Demon. The rest of the Green-faced Demon Sect were far inferior in both strength and potential.
"Senior Sister Xia, elders of the Azure Dragon Sect, I’m afraid I must trouble you to stay nearby for a while longer to protect ," Ling Chen said to everyone. Just a mont ago, the Red Sky Sword Saint had channeled his remaining essence into Ling Chen, causing Ling Chen’s own cultivation to beco sowhat unstable. Now, he simply intended to refine it right here.
"Sure."
Xia Yunxin nodded. They, too, were interested in staying around to see if there were any other gains to be had.
Ling Chen sat down and began to circulate his True Qi, initiating the refinent of the power essence left behind by the Red Sky Sword Saint. Suddenly, his complexion reddened. He could feel an extraordinarily vast and robust energy explode from within him.
His True Qi rapidly surged from within him. His body swiftly reacted defensively, resisting the impact of the vast energy.
Within him, his ridians and bones were illuminated by a layer of red light, continuously strengthening his internals. Nevertheless, Ling Chen could still feel spasms of pain, and his ridians even made faint creaking noises under the impact.
At this mont, deep in Ling Chen’s Dantian, the Ling Tian Sword Scripture was completely activated, forming a colossal vortex of True Qi.
The Red Sky Sword Saint’s True Qi carried a scorching aura. As Ling Chen circulated it, the surface of his body swiftly flushed a deep red, as if he were being roasted.
The vast True Qi, like a raging flood, roared through Ling Chen’s entire being. A wave of heat surged, like steam, perating his body.
This raging True Qi, after flowing through his ridians, eventually poured into his Dantian, entering the vortex of True Qi.
WHOOSH... WHOOSH...
As this colossal True Qi flooded in, the vortex of sword qi spun even faster. Then, droplets of exceptionally pure, liquefied energy began to condense, finally falling and coating the True Qi Essence Pill.
SIZZLE! SIZZLE!
The liquefied energy, pure beyond compare, exuded a faint white smoke as soon as it encountered the True Qi Essence Pill. It promptly rged into the pill. Accompanying this mighty inundation, the pigeon egg-sized True Qi Essence Pill began to gradually solidify. Simultaneously, as it solidified, the sword-shaped True Qi swirling within his Dantian absorbed so of the dripping liquid. Instantly, the edges of the sword-shaped True Qi beca even sharper and fiercer.
anwhile, in another location inside Ling Chen’s body, a glossy red ball of light continuously emitted a dazzling radiance, reminiscent of a miniature sun, generating light and heat. This was the source of the vast True Qi. A remarkable stream of True Qi surged out from it, seemingly endless.
This ball of light was condensed from the Red Sky Sword Saint’s final reserves of power. Though he had little strength left at the ti, his power was such that even a fraction of it was like a vast ocean to the current Ling Chen. If the energy contained within this orb were completely unleashed, it could likely blast Ling Chen to smithereens multiple tis, even with his Ling Tian Sword Scripture cultivation.
More importantly, perhaps the Red Sky Sword Saint had intentionally made this energy extrely gentle. Even with Ling Chen’s current strength, he could control it.
Ling Chen only realized this as he began to refine it, and his gratitude for the Red Sky Sword Saint deepened. He resolved to fulfill the Sword Saint’s dying wish, no matter what.
A soft gasp echoed in Ling Chen’s mind. He then began to concentrate fully, focusing intently on devouring the vast remaining energy.
Under this endless refining and absorption, the True Qi Essence Pill within his Dantian grew even more condensed, far more robust than its previous, less substantial state.
As the True Qi Essence Pill gradually solidified, Ling Chen could also sense his cultivation growing at an astonishingly rapid pace.
「Five days passed in the blink of an eye as he remained in focused cultivation.」
In the tower’s center, the youth sat quietly. Vague traces of vast, profound fluctuations radiated from his body, scattering the surrounding debris.
The ground around him was slightly singed. As Ling Chen continued to cultivate, the air within this tower level grew noticeably hotter.
"What kind of opportunity did Saint Ling Chen encounter? Such phenona are truly unprecedented!" an elder from the Azure Dragon Sect, dressed in green robes, exclaid. He stood not far from Ling Chen, looking at the cross-legged youth with unconcealed surprise.
An elder from the Golden Sword Sect nodded and then said, "The demon that fled was at the Saint Realm, yet it still couldn’t defeat Saint Ling Chen. The Red-robed Man who helped Saint Ling Chen earlier must also be a Saint."
"So, does this an he has obtained a Saint’s legacy?" The Azure Dragon Sect elder’s pupils shrank slightly. This was even more shocking than when Ling Chen had received the legacy of the Invincible Demon Lord.
Although the Invincible Demon Lord was powerful, his cultivation was rely at the peak of the Sky Apex Realm. But this Red-robed Man was truly a Saint! Could it an that Ling Chen might reach the Saint Realm in the future?
That was a level even higher than the first Sect Leader.
The elders from the Azure Dragon Sect and Golden Sword Sect exchanged glances, their perception of Ling Chen undergoing a sudden change. They now admired Ling Chen from the bottom of their hearts and resolved to follow this young master closely, believing their own futures would be bright if they did.
SWISH!
At this ti, Ling Chen, who had kept his eyes closed all along, abruptly opened them.
Ling Chen extended his hand and pointed. A red sword qi shot out, landed on a wall, and then disintegrated, sending sparks flying.
"His True Qi has a fire attribute!" Xia Yunxin and the others’ eyes lit up. She knew Ling Chen’s cultivation technique wasn’t fire-attributed. Yet now, his True Qi possessed a potent fire attribute, perfectly integrated and imnsely powerful.
