Chapter 1260 The Power of the Divine Crystal
"What's wrong with him! How did his breathing weaken so quickly!"
"To unleash such an astonishing and unparalleled secret technique must have consumed an enormous amount of energy. It's a miracle that this human youth could hold on for even a few breaths. Right now, he's probably on the verge of exhaustion!"
"They fought such a stunning battle, but in the end, they still had to die here. What a pity!"
Soon, many creatures noticed Xiao Chen's unusual behavior and whispered among themselves. Some powerful demons who were on good terms with the Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast felt quite sorry for him, thinking that such a talented and unparalleled young man as Xiao Chen should not die here, as it would be a waste of his potential.
"Our benefactor seems to be failing; his life force is rapidly weakening!"
"Oh no, the Ancestor hasn't broken through the cultivation barrier yet; he still needs some time!"
"Damn it, why am I so weak and unable to relieve my benefactor's worries!"
The turtles and their offspring could also see that Xiao Chen was rapidly weakening, his face was pale, and his demonic light was dimming. He was already at his limit, and they were all anxiously pacing around!
"Now I understand why he named himself the King of Misfortune, his luck is just too bad!"
"Even if he possesses extraordinary secret techniques that allow him to infinitely increase his strength in a short period of time, he is still as weak as an ant in front of the Dragon Ancestor!"
"The dust has settled; the dead end is sealed!"
The group of geniuses shook their heads, lamenting that Xiao Chen's luck was really too bad. From beginning to end, Xiao Chen had done a perfect job. First, he instigated the Black Feather Mountain Lord and the Crimson Flood Dragon King to fight each other. Then, he used his peerless divine power to forcefully raise his realm and kill the Crimson Flood Dragon King by himself. His series of operations were perfect.
If the Black-Armored Dragon Turtle Beast breaks through in time, its astonishing defense will be enough to withstand the attack of the Flood Dragon Ancestor and wear down its soul fire until it is extinguished.
This deadlock will be completely reversed.
Unfortunately, it ultimately fell short by a hair's breadth.
"You care a lot about these turtle demons, don't you? I will kill them one by one right in front of you!" The Flood Dragon Ancestor spoke, his eyes like fire. He opened his big mouth, and a terrifying crimson cloud with amazing suction power spread out, like a wind dragon, raging across the heavens and earth, lifting the Five Blessings in the Divine Pool and pulling them into the high sky.
Previously, Xiao Chen had turned into a demon on the spot to save this turtle child and fought a great battle with the Crimson Flood Dragon King.
Jiaozu wanted to use him as a scapegoat to torture Xiao Chen.
Having lost its closest kin, it wanted Xiao Chen to experience the pain of a demon dying before its eyes.
"Five Blessings!"
"Let go of my son!"
"Dragon Ancestor, you will die a horrible death!"
The tortoises roared in despair, and Wufu's parents were heartbroken, their faces covered in tears. Their children had been rescued by Xiao Chen with great difficulty, but in the end, they still couldn't escape death.
Wufu was enveloped in crimson clouds, its robes fluttering, and it was dragged up into the sky like a puppet on strings. Its large eyes were filled with terror and despair. This was the second time it had faced life and death today.
The first time, the Crimson Flood Dragon King wanted to eat it as a snack, but Xiao Chen, the Demon God, descended to earth and saved it. Now, the Flood Dragon Ancestor wants to kill him again. Xiao Chen is weak and his Yuan Power is almost exhausted. Who can save it again?
"Ancestor Jiao, how could you, a mighty ancient demon, lay a hand on a mere child?"
Enraged, Xiao Chen crushed the divine crystal he had obtained from Zhang Sheng without hesitation, absorbing its surging divine power. The crimson divine crystal instantly melted, turning into a ball of divine liquid that flowed into Xiao Chen's demonic body. The divine crystal's spiritual energy was limitless, and in an instant, Xiao Chen's withered dantian glowed again, its dim demonic radiance reigniting fiercely. Before Xiao Chen could even comprehend the sea-like divine power brought by the divine crystal, he transformed into lightning and rushed towards the Flood Dragon Ancestor with lightning speed.
Divine Crystal, one of Xiao Chen's backup plans, is formed from the divine blood of a powerful figure in the divine camp. It possesses boundless spiritual power and astonishing divinity, inheriting most of that powerful figure's divine essence, making it comparable to a divine medicine.
Taking it has many mysteries; if you know the method, you can refine your body, nourish your qi, and it has endless miraculous effects.
Unlike demons who automatically condense their demon cores upon reaching a certain age, humans must cultivate to the General Realm before they can condense their martial cores and inherit their primordial power.
Of course, after Xiao Chen mastered the Dragon Slaying and Fortune Seizing Scripture, when he transformed his fortune, both the demon crystal and the martial core were refined into a fortune-generating elixir and entered Xiao Chen's body. Therefore, he had not touched the corpse for a long time.
Some extremely powerful individuals, in addition to their martial cores, also have divine crystals formed within their bodies.
Such individuals possess unparalleled talent and invincible divine power, and mostly originate from the upper realm.
The divine crystal in Xiao Chen's hand came from a powerful figure in the spirit realm of the divine faction. Years ago, he was ordered to descend upon the Azure Dragon Domain to fight against powerful figures in the spirit realm of the true demon faction, and ultimately perished.
The crimson-gold divine crystal shimmered with divine light, exuding terrifying spiritual power, as if shrouded in a layer of golden mist, brimming with divinity.
At this moment, the divine crystal had completely melted, transforming into divine light that flowed into Xiao Chen's body through his palm.
"Such terrifying power, he actually... had a backup plan?"
"He was surrounded by divine aura, and he crushed a divine crystal. What a waste! How could a divine crystal be squandered like this!"
"While divine crystals are indeed incredibly powerful, this secret technique consumes too much energy, like a bottomless black hole. Even with divine crystals providing energy, it's still a drop in the ocean and unsustainable!"
All living beings were astonished, amazed by Xiao Chen's profound foundation. At the crucial moment, he actually took out the incomparably precious Supreme Divine Crystal. Some old demons were heartbroken and regretful when they saw that Xiao Chen did not use secret techniques or spiritual medicine to consolidate the effect of the divine crystal when absorbing it, but directly crushed it and absorbed it raw.
Divine crystals are extremely rare, and no one would absorb them so carelessly!
Without using secret techniques and elixirs, at least 30% of spiritual energy will be lost!
However, in the face of life and death, Xiao Chen didn't care about that!
The ancestor of the dragons was extremely terrifying; in ancient times, he was definitely a great emperor.
Even though he has long since perished and only a remnant soul remains, he is definitely at the level of a demon emperor.
Although he forcibly raised his realm to the Emperor Realm using True Demon, he could only maintain it for a few breaths.
Facing a demon emperor like Jiaozu who had once reached the Emperor Realm, he had no advantage whatsoever and was no match for him at all!
If it weren't for the limited soul power of the Jiaozu, which prevented them from holding out for too long, Xiao Chen and the Black Armored Dragon Turtle Beast would surely have died today!
Even though the Dragon Ancestor quickly annihilated his soul and spirit, obliterating the mortal realm, Xiao Chen still narrowly escaped death.
True demons consume too much spiritual energy. Even though Xiao Chen had just absorbed an entire divine crystal and had the Gonggong Divine Armor constantly providing power, he still couldn't last long.
Xiao Chen estimated that he would enter a period of weakness in ten breaths at most.
Although Xiao Chen still possesses the Crimson Flood Dragon King's spiritual essence and the Divine Demon Ointment, he can only replenish his spiritual energy once after entering True Demon form. Once replenished, he will enter an immune period and will be unable to absorb any form of energy until the True Demon form ends.
For the sake of the Five Blessings, Xiao Chen did not hesitate. He directly crushed the divine crystal, replenished his Yuan Power, and returned to his peak state.
Xiao Chen stepped into the void, standing on the black throne, and leaped to the front of the Flood Dragon Ancestor like lightning. He slashed down with his sword, and the black demonic light surged like a raging sea, enveloping the purple sword light. Like a ferocious beast, it crashed fiercely into the dazzling crimson cloud in the void that was drawing the Five Blessings, and shattered it in an instant.
Xiao Chen stood in the void, his white hair and blood-red eyes radiating demonic energy, swirling with wind and thunder, like an unparalleled demon lord.
Shattering the dragon's breath, Xiao Chen gently raised his hand, and endless demonic light gathered, forming a demonic cloud that rushed past and caught Wu Fu, who had lost its grip and was falling from the sky.
