Chapter 555: Chapter 255: Golden Body Great Success, Xuan Daozi Appears!

After speaking, she sheathed her sword and gracefully left.

Chen Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief; this woman actually couldn’t bring herself to kill him.

However, this matter really can’t be blamed on him.

Zi Yuan was influenced by the special yang energy of the Great Sun Golden Fruit; he was also affected, though not as severely. Yet she insisted on provoking him, ordering him around with an arrogant attitude! Who could tolerate that?

Moreover, at that time, he was somewhat influenced by the evil fire within his body, which led him to choose this method to detoxify Zi Yuan in a fury.

Now, he really has become the father-in-law of the Xuantian Sect Leader.

However, if my cheap father-in-law finds out about this, he’d probably be the first to annihilate me...

He collected his thoughts and cleaned up the battlefield.

Then he looted the disciples of Chaotic Demon Sect, hoping to find something useful.

These guys practiced some unorthodox paths, but Chen Xiao couldn’t care too much; for him right now, anything useful is good.

"Spirit Replenishing Pill to supplement spiritual power."

"Poison..."

"Qi Transformation Pill..."

"And what’s this Fairy Falling Pill?"

Chen Xiao’s mouth twitched, and he tossed it aside.

Finally, he found a martial skill called Heavenly Demon Blood Explosion Technique on Qiu Ren.

The Heavenly Demon Blood Explosion Technique is a method to temporarily enhance one’s combat power.

It can boost one’s combat power to 1.5 times, even double!

But the downside is considerable; after the temporary boost, the martial artist will suffer severe injuries.

In fact, they might fall on the spot.

Moreover, this is an incomplete fragment, and even if one forcibly cultivates it according to the method, they may inevitably face body explosion and death, which would be tragic.

"Better than nothing..." Chen Xiao muttered, tucking the thing into his bosom.

It’s quite similar to the Blood Transformation Three Needles technique he used before, except the Heavenly Demon Blood Explosion Technique is clearly more powerful!

After looting these guys, Chen Xiao took a deep breath beside the Thousand-year Cold Pond.

The biting cold hit him.

He couldn’t help but shiver.

"I wonder if that old man really put the Fire Dragon Ball in there..."

"I’ll go down and check."

Although Xuan Daozi can be unreliable, he shouldn’t be unreliable to such an extent.

He said his Celestial Yang Body could resist the pond’s terrifying cold, seemingly reliable. Even if he can’t persevere, he should be okay to withdraw in time.

"Splash—"

Chen Xiao plunged directly into the Thousand-year Cold Pond.

The cold continuously infiltrated his body.

Corroding each of his flesh and bones, akin to a blade slicing in unbearable pain.

The deeper he went, the more terrifying the cold became.

He could only madly circulate Tianyang Jue to resist the cold, diving down the entire way.

Yet soon, the invading cold reached his limits of endurance!

He also ran the Mysterious Yang Body.

The cold continued infiltrating his body, but amid the operation of the Mysterious Yang Body, it astonishingly tempered his physique, making his body tougher!

"Does this cold pond actually have body refinement benefits?" Chen Xiao’s face was full of surprise.

But he quickly felt relieved.

The principle behind body refinement is simple too, constantly stimulating one’s body through external objects, and during tempering, the flesh is somewhat damaged and then repaired, resulting in a newly rejuvenated body growing stronger!

Except, this process is intensely painful.

"Perfect! Let’s use this chance to see if I can cultivate the Mysterious Yang Body to the Golden Body Great Success realm!"

Determined, Chen Xiao endured great pressure and continued diving down.

Later on, with each inch further down, Chen Xiao felt the pressure multiply! His skin surface directly cracked, bones across his entire body squeezed, cracked loudly!

But, the effect soon became apparent.

He could feel his own physique continuously tempered, transforming in this process...

And becoming stronger!!!

Fortunately, Xuan Daozi taught him the Turtle Breath Technique, or he wouldn’t have lasted so long underwater.

After two days...

Beneath the tranquil lake surface, Chen Xiao, eyes tightly shut, remained motionless, faint golden light flowing across his body, as dignified and sacred as a Buddha Vajra.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and clenched his fist!

Mysterious Yang Body, Golden Body Great Success!

Now, as long as he slightly operates the Mysterious Yang Body, his body’s surface will radiate with a glow.

Physique power doubled compared to before!!

This is a tremendous progress!

"This Divine Continent Dragon Vein is truly a rare opportunity; within a few short days here, I’ve advanced from the Early Stage Grandmaster to the Late Grandmaster, and my Golden Body Early Stage has successfully transformed to Golden Body Great Success!"

"In the outside world, either one of these alone would take several years, even decades to achieve... After all, worldly cultivation resources are truly too scarce."

He murmured to himself.

Now, his physique has grown stronger, giving him the power to reach the very bottom of the cold pond!

He immediately dove deeper, searching around the cold pond bottom, but didn’t find any trace of the Fire Dragon Ball!

"Could it be that I arrived too early? That old man hasn’t sealed the Fire Dragon Ball here?" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

He emerged from the cold pond, gasping for the fresh air as he surfaced.

"Inside this Dragon Vein, what exactly is happening? The old man has been inside for quite a while but still hasn’t retrieved the Fire Dragon Ball?" Chen Xiao wondered while swiftly using Profound Sun Spiritual Power to dry the moisture on him instantly.

Just then, he saw the other side of the sky darken, rolling clouds obscuring heaven and earth, a few silhouettes flashing through the sky, seemingly amid a world-shaking battle.

"Heavenly Realm experts!" Chen Xiao glanced at that distant sky, struck with a wave of shock.

"Among them... is the old man’s aura?!"

After years of companionship with Xuan Daozi, Chen Xiao was exceedingly familiar with Xuan Daozi’s aura! He could ascertain that the one battling those Heavenly Realm experts is Xuan Daozi!

Yet their speed was too quick, instantly disappearing from his sight, dashing deeper toward the Dragon Vein!

Chen Xiao’s heart sunk; despite the substantial increase in his power, the vast gap between each small realm after Grandmaster was clear, and Heavenly Realm... it’s an unfathomable and powerful existence beyond his imagination!

And Xuan Daozi alone to confront three Heavenly Realm experts, could he withstand them?

Considering this, he took a deep breath, swiftly darting in their departing direction.

No matter what, he couldn’t stand by and watch his master being surrounded! Even if those guys have immense backgrounds, to intend harm to his beloved kin... unacceptable!!
