Chapter 246: Chapter 247: A Desperate Struggle! (4th Update) (Please Bookmark, Tip, and Recommend)

The entire sea area above was filled with an aura of destruction.

Waves were lifted by the blast up to ten thousand meters high. In the relentless explosions, any creature that entered would be annihilated, even the saints.

"Boom!"

Chu Fengmian had already sensed that destruction was coming toward him, and a feeling of death pervaded his mind.

"This won’t do, I’ll definitely die in the explosion! Such an explosion is enough to obliterate everything about me!"

Chu Fengmian clearly understood in his mind, amid such an explosion, amid an explosion caused by a saint.

There was no hope for Chu Fengmian to survive, even if he had the Battle Dragon Technique to recover. But once he was completely annihilated, there would be no possibility of revival for Chu Fengmian.

"Saint’s essence blood, swallow it! All the Spirit Pills, come out and be consumed!"

Chu Fengmian steeled his heart. Instead of waiting to die, it was better to gamble on this last struggle; he swallowed all the saint’s essence blood he had just obtained from Saint Chu Heng.

He was making a desperate gamble, trying to break through to the Divine Power realm.

In such an explosion, this was the only chance for Chu Fengmian to survive.

In one breath, all the saint’s essence blood and Spirit Pills, under Chu Fengmian’s command, were directly transformed into a river of Spiritual Power and swallowed by him.

In such a crisis, there was no longer any time for Chu Fengmian to consume gradually; he could only do it as quickly as possible, making a frantic breakthrough amid the explosion.

The power of the Battle Dragon Technique was driven to its limit on Chu Fengmian’s body, and the ancient battle dragon phantom had been refined and appeared.

"Ancient Dragon Tortoise, run! I can’t escape now, but you can!"

Chu Fengmian yelled at the Ancient Dragon Tortoise nearby.

Now Chu Fengmian couldn’t escape the explosion’s range and would equally be killed, but the Ancient Dragon Tortoise was different; being a demonic god, as long as it escaped the core of the explosion, it could survive.

Even if Chu Fengmian were to die, he didn’t want to let anyone die needlessly with him.

"But, young master, you?"

The Ancient Dragon Tortoise anxiously spoke.

He knew that under such an explosion, Chu Fengmian was undoubtedly going to die, but to leave Chu Fengmian behind and not care for him, he couldn’t do it.

After all, without Chu Fengmian, the Ancient Dragon Tortoise would also not be able to step into the Divine Power realm.

Demons are not human, but they too have feelings, and the Ancient Dragon Tortoise couldn’t just abandon Chu Fengmian.

"Run fast, I’m attacking the Divine Power realm and can withstand it. I definitely have a way to survive!"

Chu Fengmian yelled.

"Hurry!"

If he didn’t go now, it would be too late. The explosive power from Saint Chu Heng was about to reach them.

"Okay!"

The Ancient Dragon Tortoise gave Chu Fengmian one last look, then chose to leave. At this moment, he could only choose to trust Chu Fengmian; otherwise, there was no way he could help Chu Fengmian.

He had to leave now.

Watching the Ancient Dragon Tortoise leave, Chu Fengmian’s only concern also disappeared.

"Alright, whether I can withstand this or not, it all comes down to this!"

Chu Fengmian had driven the Battle Dragon Technique to its utmost, causing his entire appearance to start transforming into a half-human, half-dragon form.

Chu Fengmian’s power had already reached its limit. When he further refined the ancient Battle Dragon essence blood, he inevitably began to rapidly transform into a dragon.

"Thirty drops! Thirty-five drops! Forty drops!"

On Chu Fengmian’s body, the ancient Battle Dragon essence blood was being furiously consolidated, and his body gradually transformed into that of the ancient Battle Dragon.

Almost at the same time, the power of the explosion had already transmitted over.

"Boom!"

In an instant, Chu Fengmian’s body was filled with an endless destructive force. Under this force, his body was constantly shattered.

But almost simultaneously, the power of the Battle Dragon Technique also came into play, causing his body to regenerate once again.

Having consumed countless Spirit Pills and divine blood, Chu Fengmian’s recovery ability had reached an extreme.

In a blink of an eye, Chu Fengmian’s body was destroyed hundreds of times, but, under the restoration of the Battle Dragon Technique, it was once again repeatedly reassembled.

Although each reassembly required a lot of Spiritual Power, Chu Fengmian had ingested so many Spirit Pills and nearly half of the divine blood from Chu Heng. Hence, the consumption of Spiritual Power naturally wasn’t a problem.

Especially, this consumption of Spiritual Power actually began to gradually weaken the dragonification on Chu Fengmian’s body.

"It works! This can work!"

Chu Fengmian’s eyes brightened. The explosive force, although it destroyed Chu Fengmian’s body countless times, was still not enough to annihilate everything about Chu Fengmian in one go.

As long as there was even a fragment of hair remaining, he could use the power of the Battle Dragon Technique to come back to life, and these repeated destructions and rebirths seemed to make the Spiritual Power in Chu Fengmian’s body erupt again.

But Chu Fengmian knew that this destructive power was just a preamble. The true power of Saint Chu Heng had not yet burst forth.

Now, unable to break through to the Empyrean Realm and wield power comparable to a Saint, he would still be blasted to death.

Boosting this bit of power had no meaning.

"Condense! More ancient Battle Dragon essence blood must be condensed!"

All of Chu Fengmian’s power came from the Battle Dragon Technique and the ancient Battle Dragon essence blood in his body. Thus, to break through, what Chu Fengmian could do was constantly condense more ancient Battle Dragon essence blood.

Now, due to constantly reassembling his body, Chu Fengmian was free from the danger of dragonification.

Without the danger of dragonification, Chu Fengmian had no more concerns and began to fully concentrate on condensing ancient Battle Dragon essence blood.

"Forty-five drops! Fifty drops! Fifty-five drops!"

Chu Fengmian constantly converted the Spiritual Power within his body into drops of ancient Battle Dragon essence blood.

But the speed was still too slow.

Chu Fengmian could already feel that the final explosion of Saint Chu Heng was approaching.

This explosion required true Saint-level strength to contend with. Chu Fengmian’s speed of refinement was still too slow.

"Hurry up! It must be faster!"

Chu Fengmian thought anxiously. Having lived two lives, after enduring countless hardships, Chu Fengmian did not want to be destroyed in an instant now.

"Eighty drops! Eighty-five drops! Ninety drops!"

On the phantom of the ancient Battle Dragon, drops of essence blood furiously condensed, rapidly reaching ninety drops.

Chu Fengmian could already feel that he was not far from the power of a Saint. Just one more step was enough for a breakthrough!

"Ninety-seven drops! Ninety-eight drops! Ninety-nine drops!"

Chu Fengmian furiously condensed, but nearly at the same time, the final self-destruction of Saint Chu Heng also suddenly erupted.

The reckless and wild Spiritual Power blasted Chu Fengmian’s body away. His mind turned blank in an instant, and he fainted, his entire body caught up in the midst of the explosion.
