Chapter 364 (2/2)
Mu Chen’s eyes contracted. This Mo Longzi had truly reached that level. That meant to say that even Senior Brother Lin Zheng might not be able to match up with him head-on.
“The cultivation of those in the Demonic Dragon Palace is extremely sinister. Although there’s a limit in their future, one’s early stages would have leaps and bounds in their cultivation. I’ve truly neglected to take this aspect into consideration, since I’ve never imagined that Mo Longzi would break through that quickly,” said Shen Cangsheng with a frown. In reality, he had also come into contact with that phase. If he was able to recover after all of this, he would definitely be able to break through into Heavenly Completion Stage Late Phase. However, it was a pity that due to this Demonic Dragon Poison, they were unable to extract themselves from Mo Longzi’s pursuit.
“The most important thing now is to get rid of this Demonic Dragon Poison. If Mo Longzi truly promoted into Heavenly Completion Stage Late Phase, I’m afraid that Senior Brother Lin Zheng and the rest will not be able to hold out for too long. We have to help them as fast as possible,” muttered Mu Chen to himself.
Sitting on the floor, Shen Cangsheng said in a helpless manner, “This Demonic Dragon Poison can only be forcefully dispelled by a Sovereign Stage expert. We’ve no other way…”
Mu Chen slightly frowned, Sovereign Stage expert? If they could find a Sovereign Stage expert, where would that Mo Longzi dare to bounce around? He had definitely bet that the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy wouldn’t dispatch any Sovereign Stage experts to deal with him. Therefore, he would dare to be that rampant and aggressive.
“Let me try. My Spiritual Energy is somewhat special. Let’s see if it will have any effect,” muttered Mu Chen. After speaking out, his Spiritual Energy started to fuse with the Nine Netherflame. This fire should have some restrictive effect against a sinister poison like the Demonic Dragon Poison.
Hearing his words, Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong both nodded their heads. As of now, in such a desperate situation, they could only try anything presented to them.
Mu Chen arrived before Shen Cangsheng. With a clench of his fist, Spiritual Energy burning with black flames rose from his fist, radiating a high temperature heat wave as it appeared.
Placing his palm over Shen Cangsheng’s crown, Mu Chen’s Spiritual Energy gushed into the former’s body. Not the slightest bit of resistance was put up by the former, letting the latter’s Spiritual Energy enter his body.
As Mu Chen’s Spiritual Energy entered Shen Cangsheng’s body, he could feel the messed-up state within the latter’s body. That Demonic Dragon Poison was akin to several dragons, travelling around within his body. As the strands of poison travelled about, the Spiritual Energy along their paths was corroded and even dissipated. From the looks of this, the Spiritual Energy within the bodies of Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong would forever be unable to recover if nothing was done.
After muttering incomprehensibly to himself, Mu Chen controlled his Spiritual Energy to shoot forward, before wrapping around a strand of Demonic Dragon Poison. Black flames instantly rose as Mu Chen prepared to refine and dispel it.
Chi. Chi.
Following the encirclement by the black flames, the Demonic Dragon Poison seemed to have discovered this danger, and it immediately emitted an ear-piercing sound. A black poisonous aura radiated from it, defending it from the black flames.
As the black flames rose and the poisonous aura extended out, the two started to intertwine. However, what made Mu Chen feel slightly depressed was that this Demonic Dragon Poison was very tenacious and resilient. Even when faced with the refinement of the Nine Netherflame, it would entrench itself until the very last of it dissipates. Although he was definitely able to dissipate it, bit by bit, this speed was too slow, much too slow.
A sigh shook through Mu Chen’s heart, before withdrawing his Spiritual Energy. At this moment, his face started to turn dark. According to this speed, when he had completely refined and eradicated all of the Demonic Dragon Poison within the bodies of Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong, a number of days might have passed.
However, at this very moment, they clearly didn’t possess that kind of time.
Upon noticing Mu Chen’s expression, both Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong gave a soft sigh. Although they truly didn’t hold much hope about this, all in all, they felt slightly disappointed.
Mu Chen started to faintly wrinkle his forehead. Although the Nine Netherflames were able to refine and eradicate the Demonic Dragon Poison, it clearly didn’t possess enough strength. If he had even greater and more powerful flames, he might be able to rapidly deal with the Demonic Dragon Poison.
However, where would he be able to obtain a flame that was more powerful than the Nine Netherflames?
As Mu Chen started to sink deep into his thoughts, a quiet and stifling atmosphere started to envelop the mountain cave, causing others to find it harder to breath.
“An even stronger flame…”
Mu Chen muttered those words to himself. After quite a while, a flash of insight furiously appeared within his head. A flame that’s stronger than the Nine Netherflame?
After successfully transforming, doesn’t the flames of the Nine Netherbird also evolve? From the Nine Netherflame, to the Undying Flame?
A flash of brilliance erupted in Mu Chen’s eyes, before faintly narrowing them. In the next moment, his mind started to enter his Universe Bracelet, finding the Nine Netherbird who had transformed into a giant egg after successfully passing through her tribulation.
Within the Universe bracelet, Mu Chen quickly found the giant egg that was in a mysterious black colour. Faint purplish runic patterns sparkled on its surface, while a strong consciousness radiated from it.
Mu Chen’s mind quietly started to call out to the giant egg. He didn’t possess the qualifications to control the Undying Fire. Therefore, he could only hope for Nine Nether, who’s undergoing her transformation to be able to hear his summons, and give a strand of Undying Fire to him…
“Nine Nether…hurry…”
As he continued to urge her, Mu Chen muttered to himself within his heart.
…
As Mu Chen attempted to retrieve some Undying Fire to help refine the Demonic Dragon Poison for Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong, something was happening somewhere else within the depths of the Western Desolate Territory.
The earth here showed signs of collapse, and gigantic fissures extended out from the ground, while all the mountain peaks had shattered and collapsed.
Bang!
On a shattered mountain peak, a figure shot down. He sent a fist down to explode the giant rocks that littered the floor, before extending his palm into the deep pit, retrieving a figure drenched in blood.
Sending an apathetic gaze towards Lin Zheng, who had fainted from his heavy injuries, Mo Longzi carried him over his shoulder, before turning around and walking to another direction.
“I should deal with the second one now…”
