Chapter 533 – Fourth Grade Combat King (2/2)

The energy inside his Qi Sea was rolling around like the fiercest tsunami, and new Dragon Marks were continuously forming. In just ten minutes, another 2,000 Dragon Marks were formed. Jiang Chen suddenly let out a shout, causing the remaining Yuan energy pills inside his Qi Sea to start burning crazily. Throughout the path of cultivation, every single breakthrough would be supported by a large amount of energy pills. Just like Tyrant had said, it was much more difficult to break through to the Fourth Grade Combat King realm, as the amount of energy required was much greater compared to the amount needed to break through to the Third Grade Combat King realm from the Second Grade.

After reaching the Combat King realm, Mortal Yuan Pills were no longer sufficient. No matter how many of them were burned, they just did not help at all. And for Jiang Chen, even Earth Yuan Pills weren’t that good; only Heavenly Yuan Pills could come in handy.

However, Heavenly Yuan Pills were extremely precious. Even an ordinary Combat King wouldn’t have too many of them. Only those Seventh Grade Combat Kings and above would use Heavenly Yuan Pills as base supply. Although Jiang Chen had robbed many people, he only had a limited amount of Heavenly Restoration Pills right now. That’s why he was mostly consuming Earth Yuan Pills.

Countless energy pills were being consumed, as Jiang Chen was like a bottomless hole. His Qi Sea was at least ten times bigger than that of cultivators the same level as him. If Tyrant and the old monk knew about his frightening rate of consumption, they would definitely be shocked. Jiang Chen was simply the king of consumption; a genuine bottomless hole. No cultivator could withstand the horrifying consumption of his.

Jiang Chen’s aura began rising to new heights as he broke through to the Fourth Grade Combat King realm. He was now many times stronger than before.

”Fourth Grade Combat King, so quick!”

Tyrant gasped in surprise. This was the man who broke through at the fastest pace he had ever seen. Jiang Chen never gave Tyrant a chance to mentally prepare himself.

The old monk was still faring better than Tyrant, but he was still obviously shocked.

However, it had yet to end. After Jiang Chen broke through to the Fourth Grade Combat King realm, his aura didn’t stop rising. The remaining energy was still being used to form new Dragon Marks. Jiang Chen had also absorbed all those demon souls he obtained in the Freezing Hell Jail. However, at his current level, absorbing those low-grade demon souls could no longer bring him good results.

Half an hour later, Jiang Chen’s aura finally came to a stop; reaching the peak of the Fourth Grade Combat King realm. He now had a total of 17,500 Dragon Marks in his body, and only needed 500 more to break through to the Fifth Grade Combat King realm.

Realizing that Jiang Chen had finally stopped, the old monk and Tyrant sighed out in relief simultaneously. If Jiang Chen kept pushing forth and broke through to the Fifth Grade Combat King realm in one go, perhaps both of them would have fainted on the spot. No matter how much of an abnormal genius Jiang Chen was, having such grand results was too much for them to accept. Since when was breaking through to a higher grade so easy? For all ordinary cultivators, even geniuses who possessed extraordinary talent, moving up a single grade in one or two years was already an amazing result. Breaking through to the Fourth Grade Combat King realm from the First Grade in just two months like Jiang Chen had done, it was truly something that could make people’s jaw drop in awe.

Jiang Chen was rather satisfied with his condition after breaking through to the peak Fourth Grade Combat King realm. However, he was now facing new troubles; he was running low on Yuan energy pills. According to his estimations, he had enough to support him until the Fifth Grade Combat King realm, then he would be completely broke. As the Dragon Transformation skill required an enormous amount of energy, he couldn’t proceed further without the support of much Yuan energy.

“Looks like I need to find a way to obtain some Heavenly Yuan Pills.”

Jiang Chen inwardly said. No matter what, the more Yuan energy pills he had, the better. This wasn’t something he could neglect. What he needed next was Heavenly Yuan Pills, as Mortal Yuan Pills were completely useless to him, while Earth Yuan Pills were barely sufficient.

After everything went back to normal, Jiang Chen let out a long sigh then slowly opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, two bald heads were revealed to him; one old and one young. He didn’t know the old monk, however, his eyes still landed on the old monk after his eyes opened. This was because his senses allowed him to see that this old monk was a Ninth Grade Minor Saint.

”Brother Jiang, you're awake!”

Tyrant happily said. It hadn’t been easy, as he had waited for this moment for two months.

”Who is this?”

Jiang Chen felt he needed to know something. He had been sleeping for a long time, so he knew nothing about what was going on in the outside world.

“Brother Jiang, we’re at Greenlotus Mountain in the Western Region. This is my master, Great Master Ran Feng. It’s my master who woke your soul using the Lotus Sutra, that’s why you could recover in such a short amount of time.”

Tyrant introduced his Master to Jiang Chen at once.

Jiang Chen was startled for a brief moment. He never thought Tyrant would bring him to the Western Region. It looked like it was Tyrant who saved him and Big Yellow that day. The Western Region was the most important land for Buddhism, and Jiang Chen never knew Tyrant had such a strong master.

Jiang Chen dared not show neglecft. No matter what, this old monk had saved his life. He quickly stood up from the ground, placed his palms together and said, “Thank you, Great Master, for saving my life. Jiang Chen can never thank you enough for your kindness.”
