Chapter 1285: Chapter 1284: So It Was rely a Spirit Body
“What? Qing Tian lost?”
“Just lost like that? This…”
“Qing Tian is the strongest prodigy of the Green Sword Sect, since birth, he has never lost a battle among his peers!”
“This Fat Taoist is really too strong, strong enough to defy the heavens…”
Everyone was stunned, incredibly shocked, and so even refused to believe it. Who is Qing Tian? He is a renowned figure in the Penglai Ancient Martial World. Although it has never been truly confird, so of the older generation speculate that among his peers, Qing Tian is the most powerful, and no one could defeat him, because indeed in so many battles, he would always sweep his opponents, slaying formidable foes. Yet today, he was defeated, and died at the hands of this Fat Taoist. How powerful is this Fat Taoist?
At this ti, in the sky, Ye Tianchen sat down cross-legged because a large amount of spiritual energy was still converging into his body, constantly impacting his body. He was in a mysterious state, and until now, he hadn’t fully understood it, only grasped so clues. He felt like he knew what to do!
“I lost? I really lost? Hahaha!” Qing Tian laughed and shouted to the sky.
“You were destined to lose!” Ye Tianchen spoke calmly.
“Why? My cultivation realm is higher than yours, my combat strength is stronger, I…” Qing Tian didn’t know what to say for a mont because it was indeed true, yet he still lost, leaving him with a difficult feeling to describe.
“Your failure isn’t because your combat power isn’t strong enough, nor is your cultivation realm not high enough. It’s because you don’t have an invincible heart, you even resorted to sneak attacking Huo Xianer. Ultimately, it shows you lack self-confidence. The more you fear failure, the more likely you are to fail.” Ye Tianchen shook his head and said.
“Hahaha, what a saying — the more you fear failure, the more likely you are to fail! Did you think I, Qing Tian, would die just like that? You are underestimating too much. I’m hailed as the strongest young cultivator in the Penglai Ancient Martial World for a reason, you only killed one of my spirit bodies!” Qing Tian laughed and said to Ye Tianchen.
“Spirit body?” Ye Tianchen couldn’t help but frown. It was the first ti he heard of such a divine art.
“Hmph, you are indeed strong, worthy of my true body erging to fight you. Just wait, I will show you what true power is!” Qing Tian snorted coldly and turned into blood rain, dissipating in the air.
At this mont, Ye Tianchen was astonished. Although he didn’t know what the “spirit body” Qing Tian talked about was, he understood Qing Tian wasn’t dead, and his true strength hadn’t been displayed. He had only defeated a weaker version of Qing Tian. Even so, it already injured him. Ye Tianchen was amazed, despite not using his full power, but this Qing Tian was indeed strong. Just a half a cultivation realm difference created such a vast gap, surprising Ye Tianchen.
“Did you see that? That seed to be just a spirit body of Qing Tian!”
“Spirit body? How is that possible? No matter how powerful Qing Tian is, he has only set foot into the Late Stage Martial Saint realm, how could he cultivate a spirit body?”
“It’s unbelievable, to cultivate a spirit body without reaching the peak of the Late Stage Martial Saint, Qing Tian’s power is beyond imagination!”
“This is indeed a spirit body. This young man’s strength far exceeds imagination. Having such a strong opponent among the contemporaries of various lineages is both fortunate and unfortunate!”
In the end, figures from older generations of powerful lineages confird that it was indeed a spirit body of Qing Tian. This also let them understand why Qing Tian would sneak attack Huo Xianer instead of directly killing her. It’s not that Qing Tian wasn’t strong enough, or that he lacked an invincible Taoist heart, but because this was just a spirit body, and it seed to be newly ford, not yet strong and skillful enough to fully utilize the true body’s strength, just a few moves at most. That’s why Qing Tian acted this way.
Ye Tianchen was also shocked, he naturally heard the discussions of the martial artists below, and couldn’t believe he had only killed a spirit body of Qing Tian, comparable to a divine thought illusion, and not the real Qing Tian. If such a spirit body is already this strong, how powerful must the real Qing Tian be? Thinking of this, Ye Tianchen seed to fall into deep thought. If he were to encounter Qing Tian’s true body, could he defeat him? He had already been wounded while battling just these few moves against Qing Tian’s spirit body!
Before long, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Ye Tianchen’s mouth, he felt his own strength, and couldn’t help but self-consciously yet firmly say: “Whether you are a spirit body or a true body, dare to co and fight, I will slay you!”
Having solidified his Taoist Heart, Ye Tianchen began relentlessly absorbing the spiritual energy surging from all directions. At that mont, he felt as if he had undergone a transcendent transformation in strength, and even though the “Fire Magma” that only those with the Heavenly Fire Body could consu almost claid his life, it brought him imnse benefits. Was this the fortune that follows a narrow escape? Ye Tianchen believed it was.
Gradually, Ye Tianchen’s silhouette beca clearer, and his physical form was slowly being repaired. Two hours later, Ye Tianchen stepped down from the sky to Huo Xianer and Little Zhu Yan, who were both stunned. Ye Tianchen was still alive? He even managed to vanquish Qing Tian’s formidable Spirit Body in such a state. This guy was truly an anomaly!
“You, are you okay?” Huo Xianer couldn’t help but ask in astonishnt.
“Should be fine now. I’ve managed to dissolve the power of that Fire Magma!” Ye Tianchen smiled. When he was at the brink of death, Huo Xianer stood up to protect him from the slaughter, and he was grateful for it.
“Darn it, are you a man or a ghost? Don’t co near…” Little Zhu Yan shouted incredulously as he looked at Ye Tianchen.
Bang!
Clearly, this troublemaker was talking nonsense again and got punched by Ye Tianchen. He looked at the troublemaker Zhu Yan and said, “Considering that your batch of Star Grass saved my life, I’ll only punch you once this ti!”
“What? It really was the Star Grass that saved you? This… my Star Grass, boo hoo…” Little Zhu Yan couldn’t help but cry bitterly. This was a rare Immortal Elixir that could prolong life, a treasure that might not be found anywhere else in the Martial Arts World. Ye Tianchen used it up, and given Little Zhu Yan’s hoarding nature, how could he not cry?
At that ti, Ye Tianchen’s Divine Thought was almost obliterated. The power of “Fire Magma” was too imnse, and Ye Tianchen wasn’t adept at controlling fire power. No wonder Huo Xianer ntioned that even the Supre Elder of Fire God Sacred Land ended up destroyed in body and spirit after consuming Fire Magma. Indeed, Ye Tianchen couldn’t withstand it.
Fortunately, when Ye Tianchen thought he was going to die during this adventure, with only a trace of Divine Thought remaining, the troublemaker Zhu Yan unexpectedly tossed over an entire batch of Star Grass. That trace of remaining essence energy absorbed it, leading to a miraculous outco Ye Tianchen hadn’t anticipated. The imnse essence energy within the Star Grass not only replenished his dwindling life force but also gradually dissolved the destructive power of the “Fire Magma.” It was truly magical. Little did Ye Tianchen know, the reason Zhu Yan was now crying his heart out was that this Star Grass was the elusive Immortal Elixir that could prolong life, only discoverable by the Zhu Yan clan’s Eyes of Golden Fla.
“Troublemaker, stop crying. Once I beco stronger, I’ll give you ten or eight batches!” Ye Tianchen chuckled and said.
“You… you are the biggest troublemaker. Having even one batch is already lucky!” Little Zhu Yan cried and said.
Despite the dangers, Ye Tianchen was still alive. He had profoundly realized sothing different this ti, especially since so of the power of “Fire Magma” had already been integrated into his body. For Ye Tianchen, this was equivalent to gaining a new kind of formidable True Power within him, which could be wielded at crucial monts.
“This ti I truly rose from the brink of death with new insights into life and Taoism!” Ye Tianchen muttered to himself.
The troublemaker Zhu Yan was still crying. Ye Tianchen glanced at him and gave him another punch on the head, then said irritably: “Stop crying, don’t you want to eat Blood and Flesh Treasure dicine in the future?”
“Damn it, even tens of thousands of pounds of Demon Beast at can’t compare to such a batch of Star Grass!” Little Zhu Yan said sullenly.
“Alright, if there’s a chance to obtain Spiritual dicine Divine Grass in the future, I’ll repay you. Don’t be so petty, tell quickly what’s the deal with this so-called Spirit Body…” Ye Tianchen looked at Little Zhu Yan and said with a smile.
Little Zhu Yan sighed, darn it, eaten by Ye Tianchen, what else could he do? Could Ye Tianchen spit it back out? The remaining energy had been absorbed by his body, it couldn’t be spat out, so he could only let it go. If there’s a chance in the future, hopefully, that kid truly gains fortune and obtains Spiritual dicine Divine Grass or even Immortal Elixirs, then maybe he could settle the old score.
“Rember, you owe an Immortal Elixir!” Little Zhu Yan said fiercely looking at Ye Tianchen.
“What? Immortal Elixir? Are you trying to extort ? Even in the whole Martial Arts World, hardly a few Immortal Elixirs can be found, yet you want to compensate you with one?” Ye Tianchen said feeling frustrated.
“Hmph, forget it, if you want to learn about the secrets or mysteries in the future, explore them yourself. I don’t have ti to tell you!” The troublemaker Zhu Yan said irritably, as his temper flared. (To be continued. If you like this work, please vote for it at Qidian (qidian).
