Primordial Divine Emperor
Chapter 450 - 214: Divine Sword Sect’s Protection, Mu Xin and Mu Yan Overwhelmed by Favor
Luo Qingchen stared blankly at the terrifying five Spiritual Essences continuing to fuse overhead, as if witnessing some horrifying event. His breathing couldn’t be described as rapid anymore; it was heavy gasping, his chest rising and falling erratically, and he felt parched.
Ten Elements Unification, shaping the True Self, is another pathway for those extraordinary beings who coalesce ten major Spiritual Essences to enter the True Self Realm.
These freaks relying on Spiritual Essence fusion to step into the True Self Realm are terrifying beyond imagination. Even throughout the endless ages in the Hundred Broken Mountain Range region, few have emerged.
Upon hearing this, Luo Qingxian’s beautiful eyes filled with never-before-seen shock.
It’s worth noting, even she, back in the Spiritual Essence Realm, only fused seven Spiritual Essence Pearls, although she told Ye Xiaofan it was five, the truth was seven.
When she fused those seven Spiritual Essence Pearls back then, it took her a full six months, and that’s not counting the time spent studying the He Yuan Technique. If all those times were added, it would be unbelievably longer.
Yet, the person before her, from acquiring the He Yuan Technique to fusing six Spiritual Essences, had taken merely ten days and nights!
Within ten days and nights, he had begun fusing the seventh Spiritual Essence, leaving Luo Qingxian utterly unable to remain calm.
This kind of world-shaking existence was like a fairy tale, utterly beyond her realm of comprehension.
At one moment, Luo Qingxian realized just how terrifying the person before her truly was.
Forbidden Martial Soul, Vast Profound Sea, ten genuinely golden Spiritual Essences, ten-day fusion of seven pearls, unseen and unheard of Comprehension Talent.
Considering all these factors combined, let alone just a Ning Xianyi, Luo Qingxian even briefly felt that not even the Divine Sword Sect was worthy of the person before her. This kind of extraordinary existence should perhaps be among those Ancient Sacred Races, or even the Di Race.
If the Ning family saw this scene, who knows if they would still decisively choose to break the engagement like they did back then.
While Luo Qingchen and Luo Qingxian stared in shock, Ye Xiaofan was already forcibly fusing the seventh Spiritual Essence.
However, at this moment, he clearly already felt exhausted. The continuous pain piercing to the bone and the focus required for Cultivators was almost unimaginable.
Even so, Ye Xiaofan continued stubbornly, repeatedly chanting the names Ye Xiaoyue, Ye Tiannan, and Sword Saint in his heart.
The sole thing keeping him going was these indelible obsessions.
He must grow stronger, quickly, as the time his sister left him was running out, and the time his master left him was even more precious. He just wanted to give it his all, his utmost effort, to protect those he cared about most and those who cared about him most.
"Unite, unite unite—Unite for me—!!!"
It seemed there was always a voice shouting from deep within him, frantically operating the He Yuan Technique, so eagerly desiring power that he momentarily forgot the piercing pain.
With Ye Xiaofan exerting all his strength, the initially repelling two Spiritual Essences, terrifying beyond imagination, were slowly approaching, touching, fusing.
Several hours passed, and as the seventh Spiritual Essence fused, a far more terrifying aura than ever before enveloped the area, rendering the Luo siblings motionless like clay sculptures and wooden statues.
At this moment, the expression in Luo Qingxian’s beautiful eyes had undergone earth-shattering changes, and Luo Qingchen was even more dazed.
Time slowly passed, until two more days flew by.
That day, Ye Xiaofan finally could endure no more. After fusing yet another Spiritual Essence, he gradually stopped the operation of the He Yuan Technique.
At the very moment he abandoned further fusion of Spiritual Essence, his whole body collapsed completely, directly falling unconscious.
"Ye shidi?"
"Ye Xiaofan?"
Luo Qingchen and Luo Qingxian both instinctively flew towards the collapsed figure.
Luo Qingchen originally wanted to help him up but was a step slower than Luo Qingxian, who held the figure in her arms and instantly pulled out a golden Elixir for him to consume, then promptly checked his internal injuries.
Luo Qingchen stared at this scene in a daze, somewhat distracted. It was the first time he saw his sister hold a male cultivator in her arms, and with such concern.
Actually, this was just Luo Qingxian’s instinctive reaction. During her days as a protector, her heart had changed repeatedly, and seeing the figure fall down prompted an instinctive response.
Of course, Luo Qingchen knew this didn’t necessarily mean anything, yet he was still slightly stunned.
Luo Qingxian, however, wasn’t thinking so much at the moment; she just wanted to know whether the person before her had suffered any backlash.
Fortunately, upon examination, Luo Qingxian sighed softly with relief and calmly said, "Thankfully, he stopped the fusion of the last Spiritual Essence just before reaching his limit, avoiding backlash."
After speaking, Luo Qingxian’s beautiful eyes gently opened, quietly observing the person before her, with endless confusion and bewilderment in her gaze. She couldn’t understand what drove him to fight so desperately, willing to risk everything for power, nor what allowed him to endure that kind of world-shaking pain and yet persist until now.
Actually, at this moment, both Luo Qingxian and Luo Qingchen realized that if the person before them hadn’t reached physical limits, he would truly risk everything for Ten Elements Unification, shaping the True Self.
However, what shocked Luo Qingchen more was that the person before him had fused a full nine Spiritual Essences within twelve days, leaving only one more to go.
