The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor
Chapter 1316
“I just said that I would share a little with you. However, I did not say how many! ” Small Tower says without embarrassment.
“You're even more shameless than I am!” Ling Han was completely speechless at this moment. The Little Tower is too cunning!
“Brat, you will only be fine if I am fine,” said the Small Tower. He even wore a philosophical look on his face as he spoke [1].
Ling Han was so angry that he wanted to ignore the Little Tower. However, he was already at the peak stage of the perfect level of the Sun Moon Tier at this moment, so if he did not break through, then, it would be useless no matter how much heavenly fire he was given. In fact, receiving too much would only overflow him and cause him to explode.
However, he was still furious that the Little Tower had messed it up like this.
“Give! It! Back back! To! Me!” Chi Huangji roared furiously. The person in front of him had obviously stolen his heavenly flame, yet he actually wore an annoyed expression! Did he try to make her angry to death? He howled furiously, and black heavenly flames burst out from his eyes. This was a heavenly fire essence, and he had filtered a small amount of them into his body.
He really only fixed a very small amount. Due to the limits of his cultivation level, he could not refine anymore like he already had. After all, this was the essence heavenly fire that even Saints possessed!
However, this small amount of heavenly fire essence had given him the ability to defy the power of the heaven power. Otherwise, if his battle prowess were reduced by two stars, he would fall from the highest king level to the ordinary king level.
“You have forced me to do this!” Chi Huangji's hands became blurred as he began to form a series of intricate hand seals. His aura became stronger, and it was as if his battle prowess had increased by one to two stars.
It's really incredible. After reaching the highest king level, it should be impossible for them to become stronger.
However, Chi Huangji had to pay a significant price for this power. Her hair lock instantly turned white, and her appearance also seemed to age for many years. A wrinkle appeared on his forehead.
Ling Han instantly understood what was happening. Chi Huangji had indeed become stronger, yet he had paid for this power with his age. Moreover, he had paid a significant amount of his looks. Otherwise, it would not be reflected on his appearance clearly.
It makes a lot of sense. If Chi Huangji was only a three or four-star genius, he would gain an extra two-star battle prowess if he sacrificed several hundred or several thousand years of his life span. However, he had reached the theoretical peak of Tier River Mountain, so he needed to sacrifice a number of astronomical years from his lifetime to increase his battle prowess by one to two stars.
This was similar to how the Thunder Explosive Pill was useless to Ling Han right now. After reaching the peak level, trying to advance further would be very, very difficult.
However, Chi Huangji had no choice but to sacrifice his lifespan to gain more power. The heavenly essence flames were extremely important to him, and he definitely could not lose them just like that. Otherwise, his cultivation speed would drop by at least tenfold, perhaps even a hundredfold.
Even if he was a genius, he could not bear to lose so much time. If an elite Heavenly Body Tier were to be stuck at the same cultivation level for tens of millions of years, they would only die at the Heavenly Body Tier. However, if they could increase their cultivation speed by a hundredfold, it was highly likely that they would be able to reach the Eternal River Tier or even the Genesis Tier.
Cultivation was like racing against time. One had to advance to the next level before they reached the end of their lifespan. It's like sailing upstream — someone will be swept back if they don't advance.
After all, the strength of Chi Huangji was clearly unrivalled at the Mountain River Tier at this moment. When he threw a fist, even space shook, with a vortex of shock waves crossing the air.
Peng, peng, peng!
It was not important that Faceless and the others were also kings. They were ruthlessly swept away by the overwhelming shockwave.
Just the shockwave alone was already this strong, so how could Ling Han defend against this attack?
He was the target of this attack, and he had to face his dominant power head-on.
The peng!
Ling Han threw a punch, and his fist collided with Chi Huangji.
The muscles in Ling Han's arm rippled like waves of a disturbed lake. The ripples moved from his fists to his shoulders.
Pa, pa, pa!
His skin instantly broke open, blood burst into the air. Then, his entire body was sent flying.
The difference between their strengths was simply too great.
However, Ling Han somersaulted in midair and landed firmly on the ground. He then channeled the Unbreakable Heaven Scroll, healing his right arm at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was just a flesh wound, and his godly bones were completely unscathed. So, healing these wounds was very easy.
Everyone stammered in surprise. There was a two-star difference between their strength, which meant that Chi Huangji should have enjoyed a crushing advantage, yet Ling Han only received a few small flesh wounds? Moreover, he even healed these injuries in an instant? What kind of defense is this? What kind of recovery ability is this?
In reality, how could the Stone Emperor and the Northern Emperor — a descendant and a Saint — disciple not have any secret techniques to increase their battle prowess? However, just like with Chi Huangji, this secret technique required them to pay a heavy price. In fact, this price was so heavy that it was far more valuable than obtaining first place in this Two Gathering Prodigy Realm.
Chi Huangji had only gone so far because his essential fire had been stolen by Ling Han. Therefore, he was willing to sacrifice millions of years of his life to reclaim this essence heavenly fire.
Yet .. Chi Huangji was destined to suffer a great loss.
“Any!” Spirit Rock muttered. Among the spirits of the five elements, Wood Spirit was the most talented in terms of recovery ability, whereas Stone Spirit was the most talented in terms of survivability. However, Ling Han's defense was not weaker than him, and his recovery ability was also no weaker than Wood Spirit. Thus, even he could not help but exclaim in shock and awe.
With how strange he was, could someone at the same cultivation level as him kill him?
The Stone Emperor turned to look at the Northern Emperor, who replied by shaking his head. This was the first time he felt so helpless towards someone.
Chi Huangji's face was a picture of shock and disbelief. He looked at Ling Han in bewilderment, and he almost felt the urge to rub his eyes to see if he saw something properly or not. However, as a supreme level monarch, he was certain that he was not hallucinating.
Ling Han was completely unaffected after eating his attack!
“I can't believe this!” Chi Huangji said with gritted teeth. He threw another punch.
The explosion!
Crimson flames curved through the air as his iron-like fist smashed into Ling Han. The strength of this fist had already surged to a level very close to the extreme low peak stage of the Sun Moon Tier.
The peng!
As expected, Ling Han was sent flying again. The difference of two stars was truly too great, especially since they were both incredible prodigies that were perfectly suited to begin with.
As before, Ling Han's flesh broke back, sending blood spurting into the air. However, his godly bones were still unharmed. There was an explosion of golden light, and Ling Han recovered at an incredible speed. Not long after that he was fully healed.
This was Ling Han's strongest quality. The Unbreakable Heaven Scroll was a cultivation technique from this — Heavenly Realm was a cultivation technique that even Saints could not match.
“I can't believe this! I don't believe this! I can't believe this !!! ” Chi Huangji down to madness, refusing to accept such a result. He launched a series of attacks, all filled with his full strength and invincible confidence. He was going to eliminate Ling Han!
Unfortunately, his efforts were in vain. In fact, even his strength started to drop at any moment.
He had sacrificed a huge amount of his life span to increase his 10-star battle prowess with two other stars, yet his millions of years of life had been wasted just like that!
10 Stars is the peak, and this is not something that can be transcended!
If one wanted to defy heaven, they would have to pay an exorbitant price.
“I'm really sorry. It was ...your biggest misfortune to find me, ” Ling Han said. He started to counterattack. With his strong physique to support him, he did not have to worry about maintaining it at all.
Being as strong as Chi Huangji, he could naturally still look down on everyone present. Even if the seven prodigies worked together, they would still be no match for him. However, he was unable to break through Ling Han's defenses no matter what he did. His attack of — which could easily destroy other level kings — was completely useless against Ling Han. All he could do was give her a small flesh wound.
Is this really the final battle of the Meeting of the Two Prodigy Kingdoms? Why does it look like a one-sided blow?
Moreover, it was not the stronger Chi Huangji who struck Ling Han, but rather Ling Han who struck the stronger Chi Huangji!
Faceless and the others all wore strange expressions.
[1] Considering it is a tower and has no face, this line should be used to refer to the tone of voice.
