Fate-Defying Demon Emperor-Chapter 334 - 321: Divine Skills: Blossoming with One Thought
"What's happening? Why did the blood-colored pillar of light suddenly disappear?"
Xiao Tian's gaze snapped toward the blood pool, his eyes fixed on it. He had gone through hell and back for the True Dragon Essence Blood. If anything happened to the blood pool, all his efforts would have been for nothing. He had used the Golden Holy Talisman and the Mysterious Yang Dao Pill, and he was now seriously injured. After paying such a steep price, his mind would shatter if he failed to obtain the True Dragon Essence Blood.
"The blood-colored pillar of light is gone? The Dragon's Might also seems to have weakened. What on earth happened?"
On the other side, Jing Yun also immediately looked toward the blood pool. Like Xiao Tian, he had paid a great price. He absolutely could not accept ending up with nothing.
Unfortunately, both of them were too seriously injured to get up. Unable to investigate the blood pool, they could only gaze in its direction from afar, praying for a swift recovery so they could learn the truth.
Meanwhile, very little of the True Dragon Essence Blood remained in the blood pool. Su Han had already devoured and refined most of it.
At this moment, Su Han sat cross-legged in the blood pool. His entire body radiated a golden-red light. His skin, now translucent and gleaming with a metallic luster, had its defensive power greatly enhanced. This was merely the external appearance. Within Su Han's body, an earth-shattering transformation had already occurred.
His golden Qi-Blood had taken on a draconic form. It surged through his meridians like a True Dragon soaring through the cosmos, providing him with tremendous power. Now, even without the Dragon Silkworm Silk Gloves, his Physical Strength alone reached two billion jin. Shattering a mountain with one punch or splitting the earth with a single kick would be no issue.
Moreover, Su Han's bones had become translucent, sparkling like blood diamonds. They flowed with a divine aura, seeming as indestructible as Dragon Bone. In his abdomen, all of Su Han's organs had been tempered. They now emitted a soft glow and were incredibly resilient and strong.
His heart was the most robust of all, brimming with Qi-Blood. It beat powerfully, like a celestial god's drum, thundering with a potent rhythm that supplied him with both Qi-Blood and power.
WHOOSH!
Su Han opened his eyes. A sharp light instantly burst forth, causing the void to crackle with electricity. His brow, however, was slightly furrowed.
I feel like I've touched the threshold of the Great Achievement of the Holy Body. Why can't I break through?
The Dragon Blood Force within the True Dragon Essence Blood was immense, bringing a huge improvement to Su Han's Sacred Body. However, after he reached a certain limit, he could not break through to the Great Achievement of the Holy Body, no matter how much he refined.
It seemed his Sacred Body was different, requiring not just the power of Qi-Blood but some other special condition. Su Han did not yet know what that condition was.
Forget it. If my Sacred Body can't reach Great Accomplishment, I'll break through to the Divine Power Realm first!
Su Han had already tried three times, failing each time. Looking at the dwindling True Dragon Essence Blood, he decided to give up for now and focus on reaching the Divine Power Realm instead.
Fully activating the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art, small whirlpools appeared on the surface of Su Han's body. Like black holes, they swiftly devoured the True Dragon Essence Blood, transforming it into a surging power that poured entirely into his Demonic Emperor Physique.
The Divine Power Technique was unique; it could only be executed through a Heaven and Earth Physique, but its power far surpassed that of ordinary Martial Techniques.
Su Han continuously infused the Dragon Blood Force into his Demonic Emperor Physique, causing it to gradually become more distinct. Although still ethereal, it was far more potent than before.
Just as Su Han was pushing to enter the Divine Power Realm, the sky above Dragon Blood Mountain churned. The winds and clouds shifted, energy roiled, and a Black Netherworld Flower suddenly appeared out of thin air.
This Black Netherworld Flower was only the size of a palm. It was as black as ink and emitted a dark aura, as if it could swallow everything. Darkness was not merely death, nor was it simply destruction. It was the conversion of all things into nothingness. This Black Netherworld Flower was not blooming. It remained closed, floating in mid-air and radiating a mysterious pulsation.
Although the Black Netherworld Flower did not exude a dangerous aura, it filled the hearts of both Xiao Tian and Jing Yun with an intense sense of crisis, as if their lives could be extinguished at any moment.
"What is that?"
Even the ever-proud Xiao Tian felt a sense of fear. He stared fixedly at the Black Netherworld Flower, racking his brain for its origin, but none of the secrets he knew were connected to the flower before him.
"True Dragon Essence Blood and a Black Netherworld Flower... I've never heard of such a thing. People have come to Dragon Blood Mountain for the True Dragon Essence Blood before, but nothing like this has ever happened. Is some strange phenomenon about to occur?"
Jing Yun was also gripped by a profound and unsettling fear. He didn't know what was happening, but his instincts screamed that it was not something good.
BOOM!
Suddenly, a black pillar of light erupted from the blood pool, shooting toward the sky and straight at the Black Netherworld Flower.
The next moment, nourished by the black light, the Black Netherworld Flower slowly began to bloom. Its crystalline petals danced like a dark celestial maiden. And within the Black Netherworld Flower, a figure grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The figure seemed to age more than a decade in an instant, changing from an infant to a child, and then to a young man. The form finally settled into that of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth. He wore a Ghostly Face Mask that hid his true features, revealing only a pair of eyes burning with a powerful Demonic Nature.
Xiao Tian and Jing Yun were dumbfounded by the sight. They had never seen or even heard of such a phenomenon and had no idea what was happening.
At this moment, the figure born from the Black Netherworld Flower also wore a look of astonishment.
What is this? An incarnation? A Doppelganger? Or a Puppet?
Su Han was shaken inwardly as he looked down at his current form. He was not real at this moment, but a shadow born from the Black Netherworld Flower. Yet, he was controllable, like a Doppelganger.
Looking down, he saw his own Original Body still sitting cross-legged in the blood pool. Just then, the Su Han in the blood pool opened his eyes and looked up. Their gazes met in mid-air. The sensation of one person inhabiting two bodies was utterly bizarre.
Su Han was now multitasking, simultaneously controlling his Original Body and his Doppelganger. The Doppelganger born from the Black Netherworld Flower not only looked identical to Su Han, but its strength was also the same. It was as if two Su Hans now existed.
If used against an enemy, the combined effort of two Su Hans would undoubtedly multiply their Combat Power.
Is this my Divine Power Technique?
Su Han adapted quickly, his heart filled with incredible joy. He had devoured all the True Dragon Essence Blood in the pool and successfully broken through to the First Layer of the Divine Power Realm.
This Black Netherworld Flower was his Divine Power Technique. It was a technique without a Grade, and he did not know if it was a Low Grade or Intermediate Grade Divine Power. However, its power left him overjoyed.
