Chapter 329: The Nine-Crack Human Pill and the Dragon Blood (Part 1)
Chapter 329: The Nine-Crack Human Pill and the Dragon Blood (Part 1)
Dragon blood stained the river, like a bloody flower slowly blooming on the flowing water. The Fat Black Dog seemed to sense something, baring its teeth at the sky with a triumphant smile, as if boasting of its dominance to the prying eyes. The river surged with roaring waves, and the white foam collided, creating ripples that shook the surface. It was the massive dragon corpse being dragged by the dog, causing the water to ripple.
The dragon corpse was enormous, exuding a terrifying and oppressive aura of rank pressure. However, its head had been twisted off, and its scales had been scraped clean, as if it were a fat carp rather than a true dragon.
The Owner casually held a cigarette, his expression unchanged. He seemed to have sensed Li Che's prying, but it wasn't a big deal.
With a click, a match was lit, and the burning flame curled the cigarette paper.
"Let's go, let's make some dragon meat soup." The Owner said calmly.
He raised his hand and waved lightly.
The terrifying black dog, as massive as a mountain, disappeared into the heavens and earth.
The Nine-Layer Yellow Dragon Sacred Wood Treasure Ship.
As the ship sailed, huge waves crashed against its hull, creating a thick fog over the Grand Canal. The fog obscured everyone's vision and eyes.
Li Che stood at the railing on the ninth floor of the ship's pavilion, shoulder to shoulder with Lu Tai Bai, gazing at the torrential rain on the river's surface.
The rain poured down with a thunderous roar.
In Li Che's eyes, the interwoven lines of the chessboard's radiance faded away.
His heart stirred with emotion.
His eyes flickered slightly, realizing that the Venerable Dragon King of the Dragon Deity Clan was not absent but had been fed to the dog.
He recalled the journey from Jin Guang Fu to the Dao City, where the dog and its owner had secretly protected them, eliminating the threats posed by the Dragon Deity Clan.
And, by the way, the owner had also obtained some ingredients, like the Dragon Blood Wine, which was comparable to a Martial Elixir for its effect on the body, and was likely made from the blood of a true dragon.
Li Che's heart relaxed slightly, as the presence of the Venerable Dragon King had indeed been a concern for him.
A Venerable Dragon King, along with the Corpse God Sect, and Yue Huanglong, who claimed to be a mere spectator but could turn treacherous at any moment.
It was indeed a formidable force. If they were to act recklessly, targeting this Nine-Layer Yellow Dragon Sacred Wood Treasure Ship, it would be a challenging situation.
Lu Tai Bai stood with his arms wide, his silver hair and eyebrows fluttering in the wind, exuding a fierce and violent killing intent.
"Master, that old Dragon King probably won't be coming." Li Che exhaled, his eyes showing a mix of amusement and embarrassment.
Lu Tai Bai looked at him with confusion.
"What do you mean?"
"Well... a powerful figure from the Netherworld intervened, and that Venerable Dragon King might have been killed." Li Che thought for a moment, deciding to attribute the act to the Fat Black Dog and its owner as powerful figures from the Netherworld.
Using the Netherworld's strong figures as an explanation seemed appropriate.
"Dead?" Lu Tai Bai's silver eyebrows rose, and he asked.
That was an invincible Dragon King! The Dragon Deity Clan was not weak, and if one were to be strict and nitpicky, they might even be stronger than some of the Divine Sects.
In their heyday, the Dragon Deity Clan had four Venerable Dragon Kings, each possessing at least first-rate invincible battle prowess.
Some even had battle prowess comparable to the top-tier invincible level.
However, that was during their prime. Nowadays, the Dragon Deity Clan had fallen from grace, and the once-glorious four Venerable Dragon Kings had dwindled to just two, both extremely old and frail.
The two fallen Dragon Kings had perished while attempting to ascend to Dragon Deity, their bodies and spirits annihilated in the divine tribulation.
The remaining two Dragon Kings, though aged and weakened by the decline of their vital energy, still possessed formidable invincible-level strength.
And now, one of them was dead?
"The Netherworld King intervened?" Lu Tai Bai's silver eyebrows rose, and he asked.
Li Che smiled but remained silent.
Guess.
Lu Tai Bai was convinced that it was indeed the Netherworld King who had intervened.
"The Netherworld King... there should be more than one, right?" Lu Tai Bai looked at Li Che, suddenly asking.
Li Che continued to smile silently, inviting him to guess again.
Lu Tai Bai studied Li Che's expression, feeling a bit uncertain, but he trusted his instincts.
To silently eliminate a Venerable Dragon King...
The Netherworld seemed even more unfathomable to him.
Lu Tai Bai knew the Netherworld had the means to seal one's aura, but... this was a Venerable Dragon King! In its prime, it was among the invincible, with the qualifications to challenge the Heavenly Gate.
Just like the Grandmasters, the Netherworld had effortlessly sealed its aura and killed it silently!
The Netherworld...
Lu Tai Bai stared deeply at Li Che, his heart stirring with emotion.
"A Che?"
"Hmm?" Li Che was puzzled.
"Your Netherworld... are they still recruiting?"
Lu Tai Bai smiled.
"Let's see how I fare."
Lu Tai Bai stretched out his arms, his sword qi surging.
Li Che chuckled silently.
Suddenly, Lu Tai Bai burst into laughter, adding, "Joining the Netherworld... aside from that, I think it's possible to have a side job, right?"
"Eight hundred li away, there are hidden Corpse God Sect members..."
"I'll go and meet them."
"The Corpse God Sect lost so many experts in the Heavenly Origin Dao City, and yet they still send powerful figures. They are indeed a bunch of dead men, so it's normal for them not to feel pain."
"Ji Mo Li is indeed becoming more and more careless with his disguise..."
Boom!
A powerful aura surged, and Lu Tai Bai, clad in white, suddenly transformed into a sharp sword light that soared into the sky.
It was like a meteor swinging its tail, a comet trailing a bright light! Straight as an arrow, he flew towards a location eight hundred li away.
With the intelligence provided by Li Che, Lu Tai Bai wouldn't have any trouble finding those evil members of the Corpse God Sect.
Moreover, Li Che seemed to sense that Lu Tai Bai's murderous intent was stronger than ever before.
It was far more intense and violent than his previous killing intent.
This time, he didn't even call out to Li Che; instead, he rushed forward with his sword, eager to kill.
Li Che was puzzled but remained silent.
"The Corpse God Sect... their leader is making a move..."
"In that case, I'll step in and take care of the troublemakers."
"Trouble... is it really that interesting to watch?"
"You've followed me all the way from the Grand Canal to the Grand Canal, but are you here to watch the trouble or do you have other intentions?"
...
...
As Lu Tai Bai transformed into sword light and soared from the Nine-Layer Yellow Dragon Sacred Wood Treasure Ship's pavilion, piercing through the sky.
Many powerful beings on the treasure ship were aware of his presence.
The second elder, Zhao Fang Zhou, with his exceptionally powerful body, leaped and tore through the heavy rain, landing on the top of the pavilion with its upturned eaves. His elder's robe fluttered in the wind, and beneath it, one could see his well-defined muscles.
"The leader has such strong murderous intent..."
Zhao Fang Zhou's gaze intensified.
It seemed that the area around the treasure ship wasn't as safe as he had imagined.
Zhao Fang Zhou released his heavenly perception, but the heavy rain interfered with his ability to sense any enemy presence.
However, Zhao Fang Zhou trusted Lu Tai Bai's judgment.
"I just need to... protect the Yellow Dragon Treasure Ship."
Zhao Fang Zhou was clear about his task.
Hum—
Zhao Fang Zhou's body ignited with energy, and his powerful frame sat cross-legged at the peak of the treasure ship.
Inside the ship, Hong Shi Fo slumped in his chair, looking utterly defeated. Everyone was a bad chess player...
He glanced at Xi Xi, who elegantly used her index and middle fingers to pick up a chess piece. Her posture... it was as if the Chess Saint had possessed her.
At such a young age, her temperament was so refined!
Suddenly, he sensed Lu Tai Bai's departure through the air and Zhao Fang Zhou's presence on the treasure ship. A strange light flashed in his eyes.
He raised his hand, forming a hand seal with his fingers, and his eyebrows lifted slightly.
This time, Lu Tai Bai might be in trouble...
Hong Shi Fo became hesitant, unsure if he should intervene.
"I wonder... is the Netherworld secretly protecting her?"
"They probably are. With the Netherworld's nature, they would likely be protecting Li Nuoxi as she travels to the Divine Capital. Perhaps they can help Lu Tai Bai break through this situation."
"That traitor who defected to the Corpse God Sect... tsk tsk, they were the ones who understood each other the most. It seems that this time... Lu Tai Bai might truly be furious."
Hong Shi Fo sighed.
The traitor who had betrayed Lu Tai Bai was now colluding with the Corpse God Sect. How could Lu Tai Bai not be angry? Moreover, this traitor's target might be Lu Tai Bai's new disciple, Li Nuoxi.
Hong Shi Fo shook his head...
No wonder Lu Tai Bai's murderous intent was so strong.
If he were in Lu Tai Bai's position, Hong Shi Fo wouldn't be able to stay calm either.
However, with Lu Tai Bai's presence, the Corpse God Sect still dared to make a move. Their target was likely Li Nuoxi.
Hong Shi Fo thought for a moment and continued playing chess with Xi Xi.
At least, with Xi Xi under his watchful eye, he could intervene if she faced any real danger.
Hong Shi Fo was also angry.
He, the number one Chess Saint of Heavenly Origin Dao City, couldn't beat a six-year-old girl. It was humiliating! He, Hong Shi Fo, had to redeem himself!
Hong Shi Fo's gaze burned as he looked at Xi Xi and picked up a chess piece.
"Come, let's play again!"
...
...
Li Che naturally sensed Zhao Fang Zhou sitting cross-legged on the top floor, using his powerful energy to tear through the wind and snow.
Zhao Fang Zhou sat on the roof's edge, at the highest point of the treasure ship, to protect and oversee the entire vessel.
Li Che's eyes flashed, and he returned to his room.
He sat in his chair, picked up a carving knife, and in the next moment, the Li Che sitting in the chair transformed into the Immortal in Painting, while his original body slowly stood up.
He joined his fingers and tore through the air.
Then, with a quick grab, he took out a mask from the Grand Canal—the Devil Ox Mask.
He didn't take out the Hell King or the Monkey God...
Li Che directly put on the Devil Ox Mask.
And with the mask on...
Li Che was ready to kill.
Hum—!!!
A terrifying energy burst forth, and in an instant, it coursed through his body like a coiled dragon, pure and crystalline. His divine nature and energy were completely separated.
It was like a blazing red furnace, and in the next moment, the furnace seemed to envelop his two-meter-five frame, radiating scorching heat and distorting the air!
"Yue Huanglong..."
"A top-tier Martial Saint."
"Very strong, indeed..."
Li Che murmured.
From the Grand Canal to the Grand Canal, Yue Huanglong must have had other intentions.
Previously, Yue Huanglong might have planned to collaborate with the Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage from Little Lingyin Temple and the incarnation of a Heavenly King from Ji Mo Li to deal with Lu Tai Bai.
When Yue Huanglong noticed something amiss, he abandoned and sold off the past body of the Yellow Eyebrow Great Mage, as well as the Heavenly King incarnation of Ji Maoli...
He was cautious and cunning.
This time, he remained in a watching stance and did not take immediate action. Perhaps, when Yue Huanglong encountered an opportunity he deemed suitable, he would strike without hesitation, like a venomous snake in the darkness, biting fiercely and injecting poison, spreading throughout the target's body.
Li Che, wearing the Devil Ox mask, slowly raised his face.
Beneath the adorable Devil Ox mask, his killing intent intertwined like thunder, constantly merging.
On the Corpse God Sect's side...
Lu Tai Bai took action personally.
Li Che chose to... first eliminate Yue Huanglong, who was watching and harboring ill intentions.
Buzz—
The Sleeping Dragon Elephant was activated, and vital energy was condensed beneath every inch of his skin, not leaking a trace of vital energy.
Then, Li Che, wearing the Devil Ox mask, shook his body and shot out like a cannonball. He dove from the Yellow Dragon Sacred Wood Great Ship and plunged into the river's surface, which was shrouded in heavy rain and mist.
Splash—
The heavy rain poured down on the treasure ship, bouncing off it like a veil of mist.
Zhao Fang Zhou's hair fluttered, and his sleeves flapped as he sat cross-legged atop the treasure ship.
The powerful heavenly sense enveloped the surroundings like a mountain.
However, he did not sense the Devil Ox's movement at all.
Boom, boom, boom—!!!
On the surface of the Grand Canal.
Waves rose, and Li Che, wearing the adorable Devil Ox mask, landed on the water's surface and walked step by step. His tall, 2.5-meter frame swelled and pulsated.
Like an over-inflated balloon, with each step, his muscles trembled as if the tide were rising and falling. His skin was stretched taut, emitting a sound like a taut bowstring.
However, with the activation of the Sleeping Dragon Elephant, the scorching vital energy was restrained, resembling a molten martial will. It was all condensed within his body.
The surface of the Grand Canal was turbulent due to the heavy rain.
Li Che, wearing the adorable Devil Ox mask, had golden lightning crackling from deep within his pupils, constantly intertwining.
【Dragon Elephant Fusion Cauldron: Pure Martial Purity (87%)】
Li Che strode through the waves, his arms suddenly spreading wide. His already robust muscles instantly twisted and solidified at this moment.
With the assistance of the Dragon Elephant Fusion Cauldron, the purity of his martial arts once again improved.
Li Che was also curious if pure martial combat could enhance the purity of his martial arts. This was an excellent opportunity to test it.
After the Owner and the Fat Black Dog took action and sent a message to that Yue Huanglong, they rushed to slay the extremely dangerous Venerable Dragon King...
So, Li Che fixed his gaze on Yue Huanglong.
Sending messages, watching, and threatening...
The golden lightning suddenly erupted, and Li Che's killing intent toward Yue Huanglong solidified... becoming even more solid!
Yue Huanglong was a Four-Opening Martial Saint...
He was a top-tier Martial Saint in Li Che's definition of the Martial Peak. But Li Che was not afraid. His blood boiled continuously, and a mighty battle intent raged within him.
