Chapter 514 - Completion

“Wake up!” The cat’s shout snapped Long Chen out of the intense pain. Rather than enduring the pain from the poison, he needed to refine it!

The first step to cultivate the True Martial Demon Body was to refine the poison. He quickly recalled the technique and started the refining process.

But before he even started refining it, the pain suddenly subsided. He checked his body and saw that the poison had been forced into a small orb in the center of his chest.

His blood had suppressed the poison on its own!

“The Inherited Blood Essence of an Ancestral Dragon flows in your veins. The blood of such a creature would never allow a poison of this caliber to infiltrate your body. Even a King-tier poison would not harm you,” the cat explained.

Long Chen just realized that that was indeed the case.

Thankfully, it didn’t hinder his cultivation. Since the poison has been isolated at his chest thanks to his blood, it became hundreds of times easier for him to refine it. A regular person would have to endure the pain for an entire month to completely refine it. Thanks to his unique blood, he finished it in a day.

The True Martial Demon Body was not an easy technique to cultivate due to the poison, but one would gain absolute strength if they were successful in cultivating it. Demon General Strongman had died because he hadn’t cultivated it properly.

The poison soon turned into a power that Long Chen could utilize. The power enveloped his body after a day, and he could now enter the next step.

This was where the true cultivation would start!

He needed to cultivate it by training in a specific fist art. Rather than using it for attacking, it was used for cultivating. Long Chen stood up and copied the movement he had seen in the manual.

He closed his eyes and focused.

Bam!

He punched numerous times and moved around with clear intention. Long Chen danced in the cave while the poison’s strength slowly merged into his muscles and skeleton to strengthen his body. As he cultivated, he was also slowly absorbing nature’s spiritual energy into his body to reinforce it!

Thanks to the reinforcement of nature’s spiritual energy and the poison’s energy, Long Chen’s fist technique became stronger. He submerged himself in the profoundness of the fist art. Time slowly passed, and Liu Yiyi visited numerous times. But Long Chen did not notice her, as if he was asleep.

She left with disappointment every time.

She told her mother about his progress, and the Clear Shallows King sighed in shock. “He already refined the poison and reached that stage? He’s beyond a genius. Very few people have managed to cultivate that technique. Most that tried were tortured to death by the pain of the poison. Even though Demon General Strongman succeeded, he only managed to do it halfway. I never thought Long Chen would be so successful! And it took him so little time.”

“Mom, why did you let him cultivate something so unreliable?” Liu Yiyi scoffed.

“That’s because I have faith in him. See, he’s almost close to completion.”

Liu Yiyi had her own thoughts.

When she entered the cave a few days later, she saw clouds of dust flying around. She couldn’t see Long Chen, but she knew he was still inside cultivating.

There was too much dust, and Long Chen’s movements were too fast.

Eleven days passed.

Liu Yiyi had been standing guard outside the whole time. There were only five days left until the assessment and she was worried that Long Chen hadn’t completed his cultivation yet. If that was the case, then both her and the Clear Shallows King would be in trouble.

Just then, the cave collapsed. The entire ground shook and dust covered everything. Liu Yiyi was shocked and thought Long Chen had been buried alive. Just then, a yellowish figure ran out of the cave and stood in front of her

“You look so ugly ...” Liu Yiyi laughed. Long Chen’s body was covered in yellow dirt. His eyes were slightly red, but the rest of his body was caked in dirt.

This was the result of cultivating for eleven days. Long Chen hadn’t even bothered taking care of himself.

Liu Yiyi laughed at him.

Boom!

Long Chen used his Qi to shake off the dirt and reveal his original self. Liu Yiyi stopped laughing.

He looked so sharp that he appeared like a sword. Liu Yiyi felt that she was being cut just by looking at him. She was like a rabbit standing in front of Long Chen; all he needed was to hit her lightly and he would kill her!

She had never felt such a dangerous aura even from Demon General Strongman.

“Have you ... succeeded?” Liu Yiyi trembled.

“Yes.” He nodded, as if it was insignificant. “How many days have passed? How much time do we have left? Did we miss the assessment?”

Long Chen was worried that he had missed the assessment due to being so engrossed in cultivation. Their plans would be useless if he missed it.

“ ... Five more days. We have five more days.” Liu Yiyi was in a daze as she stared at him. Long Chen had cultivated a King-tier martial technique in just tens of days. No one in the Divine Martial Empire could achieve that! Long Chen’s secrets attracted Liu Yiyi so much.

“Phew. Thankfully,, I’ve finished cultivating the True Martial Demon Body. Though I still have some trouble controlling the Demonic Illusion. There are only five days left, so I need to work on that. I have a lot of questions to ask.” Long Chen quickly formed a schedule for the next five days.

This had become his habit.

Liu Yiyi was happy when she thought she could spend the next five days with him and quickly nodded.

Long Chen wasn’t sure what to do with her attraction towards him.

I will leave this place for the Ancient Graveyard once I get the Emperor Flame Pearl. I hope she will forget me after enough time passes.

After meeting the Clear Shallows King, Long Chen returned to his room. It hadn't even been two months since he arrived, but his status has changed so much. He was only at the First Passage Stage when he first joined and was at the bottom of the food chain, but now he was at the peak of all disciples in the Clear Shallows Pavilion!

Even Liu Yiyi could not win against him now.

Even though Long Chen was the latest one to join and was supposed to be of the lowest rank, the Clear Shallows King had designated him as the eldest disciple, so everyone else’s ranks had dropped. That meant even Liu Yiyi had to call him “senior ...”

Many of the disciples still recalled how Long Chen had killed Qin Huanyu, but they had to admit that Long Chen was a monster when they saw him.

The others respected him too.

Thankfully, the Clear Shallows King had restricted information about Long Chen, so the other kings didn’t know about him.

Five days passed in a flash.

In those five days, Long Chen finally cultivated the Demonic Illusion and the True Martial Demon Body close to the point of mastering them. His proficiency in the Demonic Illusion was no weaker than Liu Yiyi's.

The day of the assessment had arrived. This time, regular disciples would not have the privilege of observing it. Only higher-ranked disciples, direct disciples, elders, and grand elders could enter the fourth layer of the Demon World. The Demon Generals, on the other hand, would be in charge of maintaining order.

Even so, there were close to three thousand spectators. They made up the main strength of the Ancient Demon Domain. None of them were lower than the Sixth Passage Stage.

The Clear Shallows King Pavilion was going to send out five contestants, including Long Chen and Liu Yiyi. All of them were at the Seventh Passage Stage. Approximately sixty contestants were registered from all seven pavilions. Out of the sixty, some of them were beyond the Seventh Passage Stage. It was clear that the Clear Shallows Pavilion was weaker than the others.

On this day, Long Chen and the others were standing in front of the Clear Shallows King.
