Chapter 249: Chapter 223: Refining Dao Blood, Quenching True Blood, Strengthening the Physique!

After leaving the Demon Beast Mountain Range, Elder Yan suddenly said from within the ancient ring, "He has left the Demon Beast Mountain Range and is probably heading to the Central Region. I’m afraid he will tell the other divine beings about this matter."

Ye Chen smiled, his expression laden with profound meaning, "Elder Yan, isn’t this exactly what we want?"

Elder Yan said, "Aren’t you afraid that those divine beings will make a move against us?"

Ye Chen shook his head, "No, they won’t."

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because in this world, no one knows the details of the Ten Thousand Domains better than us. We have made vows of the Heavenly Dao; how could they possibly make a move against us? It would be too late for them even to curry favor with us," Ye Chen said with a confident smile.

After returning home this time, Ye Chen no longer cultivated but instead, spent as much time as possible with his parents. Occasionally, Ye Zimei would take him to wander the markets, and sometimes he accepted invitations from the elders to give guidance to other young clan members. He was worshipped by the younger generation, and even many young girls boldly flirted with the young man, openly expressing their feelings, causing Ye Zimei to pout jealously.

Every time the night was quiet, Ye Chen would refine pills by himself. Having reached this stage in his cultivation, he was fundamentally capable of pill concoction.

Of course, they were not truly high-level pills, but concocting three-star pills was not a problem either; the only issue was the lack of corresponding medicinal materials, but he nonetheless managed to produce many high-quality one and two-star pills.

Mostly, they were for healing and saving lives, with some for cultivation and temporary enhancement of cultivation, intended for emergencies.

Before leaving, Ye Chen left a Martial God Demon Pill for his father, Ye Ao, who was about to break through to the Martial God Realm and needed a great deal of Divine Power. One Martial God Demon Pill was more than sufficient.

He also wanted to pass on the God King Revival Technique to his father but was concerned it might attract the covetous gazes of those with hidden agendas, so he decided against it.

Finally, after leaving some Innate Demon Pills and several Martial Arts Divine Powers, Ye Chen left once again.

However, he later returned midway through his journey and stayed at home for a full month, enjoying a warm reunion with his parents, before he left because he had a premonition that it might be many years before he returned this time.

He didn’t understand why he had this premonition, which made him feel anxious for the first time, and in the middle of an uninhabited deep mountain forest, he couldn’t help but look up to the sky and roar, "I must become stronger."

"Yes, you must become stronger, become strong before the great changes of this world," Elder Yan’s figure floated out, "I have a premonition that in the not-too-distant future the world will undergo upheavals, and it may be many years before you can return after this departure."

"Elder Yan, you have this premonition too!" Ye Chen was shocked, considering their high levels of cultivation had long transcended mortal realms, and especially Elder Yan’s realm, which was unfathomably deep. If even he had such a premonition, then there was an almost certainty it would come true.

Elder Yan conveyed that he seemed to have seen a corner of the future, and in the near future, they would leave this world and enter the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.

Elder Yan was rarely so solemn as he nodded, "You need to become stronger. Although your physical body can’t yet bear the full brunt of the Dao Blood, you can still adopt a gentler method to melt and strengthen it, but the process will be very painful. Do you accept?"

Ye Chen smiled, brilliantly and fearlessly, "Elder Yan, do you really think I’m someone who fears pain?"

Elder Yan smiled too, "Very well, then let’s begin."

Boom—

A powerful fluctuation covered this ten-mile-radius wild forest. Elder Yan was taking action, deploying divine-level measures to seal off this small world, isolating it from the outside, allowing Ye Chen to cultivate with full concentration.

Ye Chen sat cross-legged in the void, and with a flicker of his hand, the Dao Trace Divine Bottle appeared. Looking at the flowing Dao Essence Blood within it, he did not hesitate and directly opened the bottle stopper.

Boom—

As soon as the stopper was opened, endless Divine Power surged to the skies, and a spread of blood-light exploded, shaking the heavens and earth. Had Elder Yan not taken precautions to seal off this small world in advance, it surely would have alarmed everyone within a thousand miles.

Visible to the naked eye were crimson-golden Divine Chains of Order whistling through the void from the Dao Trace Divine Bottle, interweaving across the sky, resonating with sonorous sounds, accompanied by an endless, surging blood-light bursting into view like tumultuous ocean waves, daunting to witness.

Had Elder Yan not protected this vacuum of space with his intervention, it would have completely exploded, for this was the Dao Essence Blood surpassing that of divine beings, containing the overwhelming pressure of that supreme existence—unmatched and incomparable.

"It’s too powerful. Once unsealed, the hidden Dao Fragments are fully releasing their potential."

Ye Chen, being so close, felt as if his whole body was about to be torn apart; even the Human Origin Golden Body could not withstand it. This was Dao Essence Blood. For such peerless existences at that level, even a single drop of blood held unimaginable boundless power, effortlessly annihilating Heavenly Gods.

Elder Yan’s expression was extremely solemn as he began to make his move. His illusory figure surged with a tremendous force as he grasped the Dao Trace Divine Bottle in one swift motion, only pouring out a small half-drop of Dao Essence Blood before swiftly wiping his palm and resealing the Divine Bottle. The blinding blood light instantly vanished from sight.

However, the small half-drop of Dao Essence Blood tumbled through the void, seemingly a mere wisp, yet it contained the vastness of an ocean and the limitless might of the Dao, tearing and collapsing the very fabric of space.

Dao Essence Blood, every thread and filament was terrifyingly unmatched.

Elder Yan’s demeanor was serious as he said, "Ye Chen, although your Human Origin Golden Body is considered powerful, even stronger than Martial God Dao Soldiers, Dao Essence Blood is extraordinary. It needs to be diluted before you can absorb and refine it."

His palm trembled with the power to overturn heavens and earth, scattering the small half-drop of Dao Essence Blood into a misty, thin blood fog. Even the Dao Fragments within were shattered, unable to form Order Divine Chains.

Then Elder Yan made another move, and the Six Harmonies trembled in all directions. The spiritual energy from the heavens and earth for miles around surged forth like a swarm, turning into substantial streams of spiritual energy overhead, ultimately forming a two zhang wide Spirit Pond, filled with the refined essence of nature’s spiritual energy.

It was unbelievable that with a mere gesture, Elder Yan could create a Spirit Pond, truly extraordinary.

His expression still severe, Elder Yan merged the dispersed blood fog of Dao Essence Blood into the Spirit Pond, quickly dyeing it a bright, blood-red color as it radiated tremendous energy fluctuations.

As if by telepathy, Ye Chen immediately leapt into the Spirit Pond formed in the void and sat down to meditate. The Human Origin Body Technique ran wildly within him, with his muscles and bones cracking and popping ceaselessly, like thunderous roars that were deafening.

His body became a bottomless pit, with thirty-six thousand pores transforming into as many tiny black holes. Streams of spirit liquid mixed with blood essence continuously merged into Ye Chen’s body, ceaselessly strengthening his Golden Body.

The originally dark-golden blood within him now appeared deeper, and even some of the blood showed vivid flashes of red, the manifestation of True Blood.

Boom, boom, boom—

Ye Chen transformed his body into a tripod furnace, constantly refining himself with the Human Origin Body Technique. His entire body underwent relentless enhancement, his bones and blood reaching Ultimate Ascension, gradually approaching Great Perfection as True Blood emerged.

Strand by strand, thread by thread, True Blood was continuously forged, distinctive and possessing a far greater power than that of the golden blood, like a dormant True Dragon that upon awakening, could unleash boundless Divine Power, capable of devastating and upending the heavens and the earth.

This was Human Origin True Blood, returning to the basics and greatly amplifying his already strong physique.

Blood Qi rolled and roared within his veins like a raging torrent, incessantly scouring the vessel walls, deafening to hear.

With the refinement of True Blood and the strengthening of bones, Ye Chen’s physique advanced towards even greater might.

After three days and nights, Ye Chen finally opened his eyes, shooting out two dazzling streaks of blood light that twisted and nearly tore open the void.

He rose to his feet, and a layer of black scabs shattered and fell from his body—impurities expelled from his system. His tall and robust figure was revealed, every inch brimming with infinite strength.

Pop—

Suddenly, a cut appeared on his fingertip, from which a chain of blood splashed out. Strangely, the blood solidified into a chain, clinking loudly, with Dao Runes clearly visible within it.

These were Order Divine Chains from the Dao Blood, originally shattered by Elder Yan, but now recondensed by Ye Chen during absorption, transforming into his possession, possessing unimaginable might capable of piercing through all things. However, they were not something he could wield at will, bound by certain limitations.

"How much of your blood has turned into True Blood now?" Elder Yan inquired.

With roaring Blood Qi and dazzling golden radiance mixed with vivid blood light within him, Ye Chen responded, a fraction but nonetheless striking, "One-quarter."

Once all the golden blood in his body turned red, it would mean complete Great Perfection.

Although only one-quarter of his blood had now turned into red True Blood, Ye Chen felt his strength had once again risen steeply, nearly at par with a Seventh Layer Super Martial God.

Even when facing Ancient Heroes of times long past, he need not invoke the Fighting God Seal to its Ultimate Ascension to possess the power to fight.

This referred, of course, to close combat. Ranged combat was another matter.

"What a pity that the Human Emperor Tower is inaccessible; otherwise, venturing into the Emperor’s Trial might have granted some heaven-defying benefits," Ye Chen lamented. During this time, he had not ignored the Human Emperor Tower, but this treasure of the Master of Ten Thousand Domains, this Ancient Tower, had become completely silent. No matter how desperately he called, the brand on his chest remained still without any reaction.

Otherwise, Ye Chen would have wanted to attempt the Emperor’s Trial. He had a premonition that within it lay heaven-defying fortunes—mere inscriptions outlining the First Pass, like the Domineering Refining Saint Technique. Such a powerful Body Refining Method was only the beginning—the cultivation opportunities in later stages would surely be even more extraordinary against the heavens.
