Chapter 779 Gu Xi (1/2)
Of course, if it were just an ordinary Prefecture Lord battle, it wouldn’t have attracted so much attention. After all, there were nine hundred prefectures in the Tianyuan Region, and Xiaoxuan Prefecture wasn’t particularly special among them.
But no one would have thought that the Prefecture Lord battle of Xiaoxuan Prefecture would involve Mo Yuan, a heaven pride who was ranked on the Divine Dwelling List of Hunyuan Heaven.
And the key point was that...Mo Yuan lost!
He lost to a strange young man at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage!
In the Tianyuan Region, there were countless Divine Dwelling experts, but only thirty-eight of them could be ranked on the Divine Dwelling List. Although Mo Yuan was ranked near the bottom, no one dared to underestimate his strength.
Given Mo Yuan’s potential, he was certain to reach the Heavenly Sun stage in the future, and those at the Heavenly Sun stage could be considered the real pillars of the Tianyuan Region.
In the future, if Mo Yuan had sufficient opportunities, he may even be able to advance to the Nascent Source stage.
Cultivators of the Nascent Source stage, whether in the Tianyuan Region or the whole Hunyuan Heaven, could be considered top experts who can’t be ignored.
And it was precisely because Mo Yuan had quite a bit of fame in the Tianyuan Region that this matter caused such significant uproar.
Thus, after countless inquiries, information about the young man who defeated Mo Yuan also disseminated.
Zhou Yuan, intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, background unknown.
The unfamiliar name announced the birth of a dark horse in the Divine Dwelling stage. The various factions in the Tianyuan Region weren’t surprised by this, because the Tianyuan Region was far too vast. There were nine hundred prefectures, and no one knew how many heaven prides were hidden across the land. Those who had not made themselves known were not necessarily weaker than the rankers on the Divine Dwelling List.
The emergence of similar dark horses, although uncommon, still happened from time to time.
Most of these dark horses were full of arrogance and wanted to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. Therefore, dark horses often emerged in important events...
Of course, no matter how many hidden dark horses there were, at least the very least, Zhou Yuan’s name had spread throughout the Tianyuan Region this time.
Zhou Yuan’s fame was achieved by stepping on Mo Yuan, which some people secretly gloated over. This wasn’t directed at Zhou Yuan but at the Heavenly Spirit Sect.
But there were also some who felt apprehensive. Zhou Yuan was too reckless. Although he had defeated Mo Yuan, he had angered the mighty Heavenly Spirit Sect and would likely run into many troubles in the future.
......
Xuanzhou City, the Yi clan’s residence.
Zhou Yuan was sitting cross-legged in a quiet, secluded courtyard with a red jewel-like Divine Dwelling medicine suspended between his palms. It continuously emitted pure and strong scarlet-red light which steadily flowed into Zhou Yuan’s body.
The pure power of the Divine Dwelling medicine, after entering his body, ran through the meridians and into the Divine Dwellings to refine them.
This process lasted for one hour.
By the time Zhou Yuan opened his eyes, the high-grade Divine Dwelling medicine in the palm of his hand had turned to powder and scattered with the wind.
Zhou Yuan’s heart ached when he saw this. He had to consume two high-grade Divine Dwelling medicines every day for his training, and although his cultivation progress was good, the consumption was really painful.
From his calculation, the fifty high-grade Divine Dwelling medicines that he was rewarded for helping the Yi clan win the Prefecture Lord battle could at most support his training for less than a month.
Of course, if someone else in the Divine Dwelling stage were to hear this, they would have already flown into a rage. For ordinary Divine Dwelling stage practitioners, one Divine Dwelling medicine was enough for several days of training, but with Zhou Yuan, it was used up in less than an hour.
But Zhou Yuan also was very helpless about this. His chaos Divine Dwellings were powerful, but they were extremely difficult to refine.
“I have to find a steady source of Divine Dwelling medicine.”
