How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 200 - 0197: Barrier Beasts

"A Low Grade Spiritual Body? How is that possible! With such a young age advancing to the Qi Transformation Realm, how could Chen Yu only have a Low Grade Spiritual Body!"

Fu Yanzi covered her mouth with her hand, her face full of disbelief.

For most lower-tier cultivators, a Low Grade Spiritual Body is considered "qualifying" talent.

However,

given Chen Yu's age of sixteen and the extraordinary phenomenon of his advancement into the Qi Transformation Realm, the qualification of a Low Grade Spiritual Body seemed incredible.

You see,

in this generation of the Fu Family, the two leading new talents, Fu Jing and Fu Hong, were both two to three years older when they advanced to the Qi Transformation Realm, yet they are of High Grade Spiritual Body quality.

Even Fu Yanzi herself possessed the talent of a Mid Grade Spiritual Body.

Unlike Fu Yanzi's shock and slight disappointment, Chen Yu's heart was filled with ecstasy.

Spiritual Body Talent!

Complete Spiritual Body Talent!

In the realm of talent, this had been Chen Yu's longed-for but elusive shortcoming.

"No wonder my advancement to the Qi Transformation Realm was much smoother than I had imagined..."

Amidst his surprise, Chen Yu couldn't stop pondering.

One thing was certain.

The change in talent must have occurred before the advancement to the Qi Transformation Realm, not as a result of the advancement.

But what was the reason?

Chen Yu's thoughts raced, and he could only come up with two points:

The first point.

The integration of the mysterious heart induced a transformation in his physique, which perhaps had also brought about some change to his talent.

But.

Chen Yu felt that the integration of the mysterious heart mainly enhanced his physical body and innate talent for Body Technique.

The second point.

Moon Spirit Ore, formulated into Moon Spirit Liquid.

That time at Yan Family Castle, the first use of Moon Spirit Liquid had a slight promotion effect on his body.

After that.

Chen Yu discovered that the cultivation speed of the Inner Breath Heart Method seemed to have increased by a strand or two, but it wasn't very noticeable.

"It started from that moment! And just before this advancement, I used high-quality Moon Spirit Ore and formulated and consumed Moon Spirit Liquid once again."

Chen Yu had a sudden revelation.

This chapter is updated by freēwēbnovel.com.

The use of Moon Spirit Ore twice, the first time was ordinary Moon Spirit Ore, and the second time was high-quality Moon Spirit Ore.

Moreover.

Chen Yu cultivated the Copper Statue Technique, and the main ingredient of the recently used "Ice and Fire Prescription" was Moon Spirit Ore.

Moon Spirit Ore, after all, had a faint connection with the teleported Moon Spirit Holy Stone, and it inherently had a minor promotion effect on talents and physique.

In addition.

Chen Yu's physique was that of a Half Spirit Body, and he had the profound absorptive effect of the mysterious heart.

In light of this.

The enhancement of Chen Yu's Spiritual Body Talent was completely within reason.

"A Low Grade Spiritual Body Talent, huh?"

Not far away, Ye Luofeng was entangled by Fu Jing and Fu Hong but was paying attention to the situation on Chen Yu's side.

The sound of Fu Yanzi's amazement reached the ears of Ye Luofeng and the others.

Fu Jing and Fu Hong were quite startled.

Ye Luofeng's heart was even more shocked, engendering a hint of defeat.

From the battle of teleportation beneath the Ancient Moon Well to their arrival in the Yun Zhao Ancient Country, throughout this process, Chen Yu had outperformed her by a narrow margin.

Especially since she owed Chen Yu her life.

Not long ago,

Chen Yu's advancement to the Qi Transformation Realm, at such a young age, was a phenomenon not inferior to hers back then.

Ye Luofeng had always thought that Chen Yu's talent must be close to hers, at least not far off.

Little did she expect that Chen Yu's talent would be so far behind hers.

That afternoon.

The news of Chen Yu's Low Grade Spiritual Body Talent reached the ears of the senior members of the Fu Family.

This news also caused a small ripple in the Fu Family.

Most of the higher-ups of the Fu Family were slightly disappointed.

After all, the aura of Chen Yu's advancement to the Qi Transformation Realm was comparable to some geniuses advancing to Innate Qi Transformation.

In the evening, in a small side hall of the Fu Family,

several elders of the Fu Family were discussing some family affairs.

During this time, they also touched upon the situation of Chen Yu's talent.

"With a Low Grade Spiritual Body Talent, even with good opportunities, this speed and quality of advancement are indeed a bit strange."

The white-browed elder who had doubted Chen Yu furrowed his brows slightly.

"This is not so astonishing to warrant shock and awe."

Uncle Lin, however, did not find it remarkable and spoke indifferently,

"The path of cultivation, the role talent plays is only a small part. Chen Yu may possess some special physique, or his spirit and understanding are highly compatible with Evil Technique."

Of course.

The situation of Chen Yu's talent was not the main point of the conversation and was quickly passed over.

"There's no need to delve too deeply into this matter."

Family Head Fu Yuan spoke up.

"Based on the aura of his advancement, this Chen Yu's combat power will definitely exceed those of the same rank, which will only be beneficial to our Fu Family in the coming Hunting Tournament..."

...

Regardless of the outside world's discussions and views.

Chen Yu, the person in question, returned to his residence and continued to quietly consolidate his cultivation.

Several days later.

Chen Yu's cultivation, as well as the Yuan Sha Divine Skill, became further solidified and more refined.

At this point.

He began practicing the Secret Technique moves within Yuan Sha Divine Skill.

As an Ancient Evil Technique of Guiyuan Realm caliber, Yuan Sha Divine Skill was not just a martial Cultivation Technique, but a system.

This skill included mental methods, moves, combat techniques, Secret Techniques, movement techniques, and more.

Having acquired a Low Grade Spiritual Body, Chen Yu felt that the mental method's operation was much smoother than before.

The practice of the moves and Secret Techniques within Yuan Sha Divine Skill, which emphasize spiritual understanding, boosted by this inherently talented body, also added benefits.

Therefore.

In the practice of moves and Secret Techniques, he was even stronger than some of the top talents.

In the blink of an eye.

Half a month had passed.

Under the augmentation of powerful spiritual power and body technique talent, Chen Yu easily mastered the combat skills in the "Yuan Sha Divine Skill," exhibiting an exceptional realm advancement.

Not only that.

He also preliminarily cultivated the representative "Evil Qi Manifestation" of the "Yuan Sha Divine Skill."

That day.

Chen Yu was seated in meditation in his room, with faint black patterns appearing on his body, emitting a buzzing sound, looking like the scale armor of a black python and slightly ferocious.

Suddenly, with a low shout, he swung one arm.

Whoosh!

A huge black python made of faint black Qi burst forth from his arm and suddenly expanded to six to nine feet, the evil winds surrounding it howling fiercely, shocking the soul.

At a glance, the Qi patterned black python seemed nearly lifelike, opening its bloody maw and unleashing an evil force that went straight for the soul.

Just that aura alone was enough to make an ordinary Postnatal Qi Transformation cultivator's spirit tremble, unable to exert their full strength.

"The power of this Evil Qi Manifestation truly has a qualitative difference compared to the previous shadowy evil punches," said Chen Yu, satisfied.

Evil Qi Manifestation was the combination of "True Qi" and "Evil Intent," truly "materializing" the power of evil Qi.

The previous "shadowy evil punches" were but vague shadows, so indistinct they were hardly visible to the naked eye.

However, this "Evil Qi Manifestation" sculpted clear and complete contours.

Simply put, it went from shadow to form.

The difference in power between the two was indeed as vast as the heavens and the earth.

Chen Yu was confident that if he activated "Evil Qi Manifestation" now, an average Postnatal Qi Transformation cultivator would likely be unable to withstand it.

While practicing the "Yuan Sha Divine Skill," Chen Yu also observed the mass of dark True Qi deep within his Qi Sea.

This mass of dark True Qi was much more powerful than ordinary Primordial Evil True Qi.

Whether it was ordinary techniques or Evil Qi Manifestation, the resulting power was qualitatively different.

However, there was only a small amount of this dark True Qi, so Chen Yu temporarily treated it as a trump card, not to be used in common situations.

...

Time flew by.

Chen Yu had stayed in the Fu Family for over a month.

During that time, he progressed to the Qi Transformation Realm and passed the life milestone of turning sixteen.

That day.

Chen Yu took out a bottle and drank the last drop of the Ice and Fire Body Tempering Liquid inside, using the "Copper Statue Technique" to forge his body.

"The Copper Statue Gang Body is finally showing some progress, but I've used up the main ingredients 'Ice Snow Lotus' and 'Fire Spirit Ginseng' from the Ice and Fire recipe again," murmured Chen Yu.

His progress with "Copper Statue Technique," a Body Cultivation Technique, had always been very smooth, could even be described as unobstructed.

Only.

This technique, while time-consuming, also required a large amount of materials to assist in cultivation.

"Lord Chen. Miss Fu requests an audience."

Outside, a servant conveyed the message respectfully.

"Mhm."

Chen Yu had just finished his cultivation and walked out of his room.

In the courtyard.

Chen Yu saw Fu Yanzi again.

Since the day Chen Yu's Spiritual Body talents were exposed, Fu Yanzi's enthusiasm for him had diminished slightly.

But on the whole.

Fu Yanzi still maintained a close connection with him, thankfully not too frequently, or else Chen Yu might have been somewhat troubled.

"Brother Yu, there are just twenty days left until the 'Hunting Competition' begins. Recently, some of the Fu Family's disciples have conducted several real battle drills."

Fu Yanzi spoke happily and went straight to the point.

"Real battle drills? It seems the Fu Family is well-prepared," Chen Yu said with a faint smile.

The Hunting Competition was judged by the number of Demon Beasts killed to determine the final results.

Over the recent period.

The Fu Family disciples attending the Hunting Competition had frequently fought with Demon Beasts and had shown some improvement.

Nevertheless.

The previous few real battle drills had not included Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng.

"The Family Head feels that we have had enough practice working together. Now, we invite you both to join us for coordination," explained Fu Yanzi, stating her purpose.

"Understood," Chen Yu nodded.

He was very clear that the Hunting Competition was a team activity.

At the hunting festival, facing a great number of ferocious Demon Beasts, individual strength seemed insufficient.

Therefore.

The final title of the Hunting King was divided into an individual Hunting King and a team Hunting King, each with its own substantial rewards.

Two hours later.

In a hilly area within the Fu Family's territory.

Chen Yu, Ye Luofeng, Fu Hong, Fu Jing, Fu Yanzi, and ten others, gathered together.

In front of the group was a huge three-colored barrier enveloping an area of a hundred paces, from within which came intermittent roars of beasts.

Looking closely.

Inside the barrier, there were actually over a hundred ferocious beasts and Demon Beasts, all with evil auras soaring to the sky.

The weakest among them all possessed strength on par with the Late Stage of Organ Refining.

As for the Postnatal Qi Transformation Demon Beasts, there were five or six.

The one with the strongest presence was an Iron Abyss Rhinoceros, its body covered in deep green scale armor like iron, as tall as a three-story building, and its aura edging close to Innate Qi Transformation.

"So many ferocious beasts, double the number from the previous times!"

The Fu Family's disciples showed fear on their faces.

"Six Postnatal Qi Transformation Demon Beasts, this is more than real battle drills!"

"That 'Iron Abyss Rhinoceros,' possessing a diluted Ancient Beast Bloodline, could probably contend with someone at the Innate Qi Transformation level."

Even the geniuses Fu Hong and Fu Jing had difficulty hiding their discomfort.

Ten talented youngsters challenging over a hundred Demon Beasts and ferocious beasts?

Normally, just that "Iron Abyss Rhinoceros," which could compete with an Innate Qi Transformation opponent, would be more than enough to completely overwhelm talented disciples like Fu Hong and Fu Jing.

Among the crowd, only Chen Yu and Ye Luofeng had relatively calm expressions.

Still, the immense lineup of ferocious beasts could slightly move them.

Not far away.

Family Head Fu Yuan, Uncle Lin, and others looked towards the group of youngsters.

"According to the information we have received, the forces participating in the 'Hunting Competition' have dispatched exceptionally strong lineups," said Uncle Lin solemnly.

"In this barrier, the over a hundred ferocious beasts and Demon Beasts—if you can overcome them, then you would just have a slight chance of contending for the glory of being the 'Hunting King.'"
