Chapter 1878: Chapter 1964: Outer Domain Battlefield 1

The Dragon Emperor frowned. "Chen Nan, you brat, you’re just taking advantage of the situation here. Pu Li might be my mount, but his inner core shattered while following you. This... this is something you have to settle yourself."

Chen Nan was instantly dumbfounded!

In his memories, Big Bro Dragon Emperor had always been kind and broad-minded. Otherwise, when all those Heavenly Monarchs from the Magic Realm barged into his tomb back then, he would’ve slapped them all to death with one palm already.

The Dragon Emperor had that kind of power, there was no need to doubt it in the slightest.

"Senior Dragon Emperor, you can’t do this. If I could solve it, I would’ve long ago..."

But the next moment, Chen Nan suddenly smacked his own forehead, instantly coming to his senses. The reason he’d said Pu Li’s inner core couldn’t be repaired before was because he wasn’t strong enough; now his strength had increased quite a bit.

How would he know it’s impossible if he didn’t try?

Chen Nan chuckled, hurriedly bowed to the Dragon Emperor, then began to circulate the Chaotic Power in his body, planning to help Pu Li repair his inner core.

Chaos is the source of all things, capable of evolving everything; this inner core should be repairable.

Just as Chen Nan was about to make a move, he was stopped by the Dragon Emperor.

"Kid, you really are generous, even willing to waste Chaotic Power like this? What about that Demon Essence Stone you got from the Coiling Dragon Heavenly Palace—planning to save it for making babies?"

The Dragon Emperor rolled his eyes massively at Chen Nan.

"Senior Dragon Emperor, you know about that too?"

The Dragon Emperor said, "The Coiling Dragon Heavenly Palace used to be my palace in the Star Domain, that Demon Essence Stone was also mine—"

"The power inside the Demon Essence Stone is enough to resurrect even a Demon Clan Supreme. Fixing a mere inner core is nothing at all. With the strength you have now, already above that waste of a Demon Clan Supreme, you can totally activate the power within the Demon Essence Stone."

The Dragon Emperor glanced at the Fire Qilin. "You have a Divine Beast Bloodline. The Qilin Clan has some ties to my Dragon Clan. In a bit, I can draw out the power inside the Demon Essence Stone and help you raise your Realm."

"Little Fire is already very strong. Help my big bro improve instead, don’t waste the power inside this Demon Essence Stone." The Fire Qilin looked all silly and cute, treating his big bro as the center of the universe in everything.

The Black Feathered Chicken was insanely excited. It jumped out from the crowd in one leap, hugging that Demon Essence Stone. "Since Little Fire is being so modest, then your big bro I won’t stand on ceremony!"

This bastard’s face was ridiculously thick. These past few days it had been absorbing the power in the Demon Essence Stone and already felt its Cultivation was advancing at lightning speed. If it could directly absorb all the power here, its Realm would definitely soar.

Chen Nan couldn’t stand it. "You damn chicken, you son of a— you’re already Late Stage Demon God, you planning to stand above your old man now?"

The Black Feathered Chicken flapped its wings, laughing loudly. "Chen Nan, you can’t blame me for this. This Demon Essence Stone is specially for my Demon Clan. You from the Human Clan can’t use it. Otherwise I’d totally give it to you."

The Black Feathered Chicken was way too full of itself. Chen Nan shot a look at Ji Yueshen and Yunhua Heavenly Monarch; Yun Hua had already been itching to move.

Back when they entered the Secret Realm, she’d already noticed that the chicken feathers on the Black Feathered Chicken could regrow infinitely. She was still far from having enough feathers to forge the Vermilion Bird Fan. But because the journey back then was too dangerous, she’d let the Black Feathered Chicken off.

Now that everyone was getting along peacefully, it wasn’t easy to make a move. Seeing the Black Feathered Chicken show off and getting a signal from Chen Nan, Yun Hua got all worked up. "Vermilion Bird Fan, here I come!"

As soon as Yunhua Heavenly Monarch struck, the Black Feathered Chicken acted like it had seen a ghost, tossed the Demon Essence Stone and shot into the Void.

"Chen Nan, you son of a—!" the Black Feathered Chicken’s voice came from within the Void.

The Dragon Emperor smiled faintly. "This chicken is quite interesting. But it has already fused with the Devil Core, which is the essence of the Demon Essence Stone. Letting it have the power in the Demon Essence Stone now would just be a waste. Besides, it’s not a Divine Beast descendant, its Cultivation has a bottleneck. This Demon Essence Stone is enough to push it to the Half-step Supreme Realm."

"Half-step Supreme?" Chen Nan panicked on the spot.

The Fire Qilin was his godson, but it had been taken in as a little brother by that damn chicken. If Fire Qilin advanced to Half-step Supreme while he himself was still Late Stage Heavenly Monarch, that damn chicken would definitely mouth off like crazy.

"If Godfather doesn’t want me to absorb the power in this Demon Essence Stone, then Little Fire won’t absorb it." The Fire Qilin walked to Chen Nan’s side. The once incomparably arrogant Fire Qilin was now unbelievably obedient in front of Chen Nan.

"..."

Hearing him say that, Chen Nan actually felt a bit embarrassed. If Fire Qilin could break through to Half-step Supreme Realm, it shouldn’t be weaker than Nine Clawed Fire Glass or Bai Ze and the others. Once they reached the Outer Domain Battlefield, at least it would have the power to protect itself.

The next moment, Chen Nan began to circulate his power, drawing the power within the Demon Essence Stone to help the Pu Li Demon Beast recover. After about fifteen minutes, the cracks on that inner core began to fuse.

An hour later, the inner core was fully restored and smooth again.

The next moment, a mini-sized Pu Li appeared on the inner core. "Thank you, Master, for saving my life."

The Pu Li Demon Beast thanked Chen Nan, then turned and saw the Dragon Emperor. Tears of excitement welled up in Pu Li’s eyes. "Old Master, you’ve finally been resurrected!"

The Dragon Emperor laughed heartily. "Pu Li, this isn’t like you at all, crying and sniffling like that. What kind of conduct is that? Where’s even a trace of the imposing spirit you had when you fought alongside me back in the day? Enough, you and Fire Qilin, absorb the power inside this Demon Essence Stone together."

The Dragon Emperor made his move, and endless surging power in the Demon Essence Stone instantly split into two, continuously flowing into Pu Li and the Fire Qilin.

The Fire Qilin’s and Pu Li’s Realms rose nonstop.

In just over a dozen breaths, Pu Li and Fire Qilin both roared furiously at the same time and stepped into the Half-step Supreme Realm.

Two Peak Divine Beasts, enough to rival the fourteen powerhouses of Demon God Mountain.

The Ancient Runes on their bodies shone, constantly digesting this tremendous power.

Preventing them from exploding and dying due to gaining overwhelming strength too quickly.

"Roar, roar, roar..."

The two Divine Beasts roared almost simultaneously.

Two Peak Divine Beasts at the Half-step Supreme Realm, raised up solely by a single Demon Essence Stone—just thinking about it showed how terrifying the power within this Demon Essence Stone was.

"The Ancient Runes on both of them are very complete, they can fully absorb the power inside this Demon Essence Stone."

The Dragon Emperor’s satisfaction held a trace of regret. "It’s just that the Devil Core was damaged when the Demon Clan Supreme was resurrected, and has already lost its Spiritual Energy."

With this matter settled, everyone was about to leave when, at this moment, Bai Shisi from Demon God Mountain, the Bai Ze Divine Beast, walked over to Chen Nan and spoke to the Haotian Tower. "Small Tower, do you still remember you owe me a favor from back then? Now that you’re heading to the Outer Domain Battlefield, I want you to help me find someone!"

"Find someone? One of the Ancient Seven Strong?" Haotian Tower asked doubtfully. "I can take care of that for you along the way."

Bai Shisi, however, just smiled slightly and shook his head. "It’s an ancestor of our Bai Ze Clan who fled to the Outer Domain in the Ancient era. She might not be on the Outer Domain Battlefield, but there’s a chance you’ll see her someday. This is her portrait."

After speaking, Bai Shisi handed a scroll into the Haotian Tower. When Haotian Tower and Chen Nan looked, they saw a very beautiful young woman in the painting, in the prime of her youth. To think she was Bai Shisi’s ancestor. Judging from the age of the portrait, he was probably telling the truth.

"Alright, leave it to us."

"Then next up, we head to the Outer Domain Battlefield. Heavenly Gate Ancestor, Golden Sword Sect Ancestor, seniors of Demon God Mountain, this is where we part ways!" Chen Nan cupped his fists to everyone.
