Chapter 449

The Spoils of War

"How is this possible?

This fellow actually has a Destiny Talisman? "Zhuowen's pupils shrank to the size of needles as he cried out in disbelief.

One must know that the might of a single Destiny Talisman had already caused him to be reduced to such a sorry state. If Liu Che were to use a second Destiny Talisman, then Zhuowen would really have to give up his life here!

"No!

I must stop Liu Che. Otherwise, even if I have two lives, they won't be enough. "

At this moment, Zhuowen's heart was filled with anxiety. Liu Che's actions had already exceeded his expectations.

"Sigh!

Kid, this is what you get for showing off. Now you're out of luck!

Don't worry, Liu Che's injuries are even more serious than yours. Leave it to me! "

Just as Zhuowen was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, Xiao Hei's voice rang out. Soon after, a black light drilled out from between Zhuowen's brows and transformed into a Xiao Hei dog.

"Xiao Hei!" Looking at the Xiao Hei dog in front of him, Zhuowen looked as if he had seen a life-saving straw.

After Xiao Hei appeared, it waved its little paw and an ink-black energy shot out from its paw like an arrow leaving a bow.

Puchi!

Liu Che, who was originally holding the Life Talisman in his hand and laughing complacently, also did not expect this unforeseen event. When he saw the black light rushing towards him, he instinctively wanted to activate the Life Talisman in his hand. However, the black light was too fast. Before Liu Che could activate it, the black light directly entered between his eyebrows.

A pool of blood shot out from between Liu Che's brows. Soon after, Liu Che's eyes widened as he stared at Xiao Hei above him. Then, he fell backwards, his furious eyes filled with disbelief. He had never imagined that the final outcome would be like this. He clearly had a powerful treasure like the Destiny Talisman on him, but he had ended up in such a state.

"I … can't accept this!"

With a loud roar, Liu Che collapsed into the crater with his eyes wide open, unable to rest in peace.

With a wave of her little claws, Xiao Hei immediately took Liu Che's Qiankun Bag and the Life Talisman from his hand. She then tossed them to Zhuowen and said, "It's a good thing that Liu Che's injuries are so severe that he doesn't have any strength to resist. Otherwise, with this dragon lord's current soul state, killing him would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens."

"Hehe!

Xiao Hei, thank you so much this time. "Zhuowen said with lingering fear.

It had been too dangerous just now. If Liu Che had really activated his Destiny Talisman, even with Xiao Hei, it would have been difficult to fight against him!

"Brat!

Don't let your emotions affect your decisions in the future. Once a cultivator reaches the Ultimate Emperor Realm, the gap between each cycle is enormous. You're only at the early stage of the second wheel, but you're already comparable to a peak second wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator. That's already extremely abnormal!

But you should know that the gap between a peak second wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator and an early second wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator is like heaven and earth. "

"The only reason you were able to break through Liu Che's Destiny Talisman was because he was careless!

If Liu Che had known that you had such a powerful technique as the blood lotus, he probably wouldn't have stayed by the golden giant's side and would have hidden far, far away.

The result of that was that you would be completely exhausted after using the blood lotus, while Liu Che would be completely unharmed. "

At this moment, Xiao Hei's expression had become extremely solemn. Her sharp eyes stared coldly at Zhuowen. She knew that if she didn't say it out loud, Zhuowen probably wouldn't have realized just how dangerous the situation had been!

Zhuowen's eyes narrowed when he heard this. Xiao Hei was right. If Liu Che hadn't been so careless, he probably would have been the one to die this time.

"I was too impulsive just now!" Zhuowen smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"It's good that you know!

It's best if you don't act so impulsively in the future. With your potential and talent, it's only a matter of time before you catch up to Lv Yongsheng!

Right now, all you need to do is cultivate properly and work hard to improve yourself. As long as you reach the peak of the second wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm, your strength will truly be comparable to an early third wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator. Even if you face Lv Yongsheng, you won't have to fear him in the slightest. "

Xiao Hei nodded approvingly. Clearly, she was quite satisfied with Zhuowen's current performance.

As she spoke, Zhuowen's gaze shifted slightly and landed on the Qiankun Pouch and the shining golden Destiny Talisman at the side. A trace of passion immediately appeared in his eyes.

"Fortunately, I didn't lose out this time. Although I narrowly escaped death, I gained quite a lot!" Zhuowen said happily as he grabbed the shining golden Destiny Talisman with a wave of his hand.

The Destiny Talisman was only the size of a palm and was rectangular in shape. Complicated and strange runes were drawn on the surface of the Destiny Talisman. Upon closer inspection, Zhuowen discovered that the strange runes on the surface of the Destiny Talisman were very similar to the golden figure that Liu Che had summoned at the beginning.

"It's indeed not bad. The might of this Destiny Talisman is probably comparable to the might of the Nine-Wheel Burning Sky Cauldron at its peak state. Its value is comparable to an Emperor Realm Armor Skill!

If it weren't for the fact that this Destiny Talisman is a consumable item, its value would probably be even higher than an ordinary Emperor Realm Armor Skill. "Xiao Hei's gaze was also focused on the Destiny Talisman as she clicked her tongue in wonder.

Zhuowen nodded when he heard this. In terms of might, this Destiny Talisman was actually on the same level as the blood lotus. However, because the Destiny Talisman was a consumable item, it didn't have any side effects on Zhuowen at all.

The backlash from the blood lotus was just too terrifying. Even with the current quality of Zhuowen's body, he actually didn't have the slightest ability to fight against such a backlash.

"Kid!

The backlash from the blood lotus is just too great. Even if you've cultivated the Jadestone Body Tempering Method to the peak, making your body comparable to a peak two-wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator, it's still completely useless against the backlash from the blood lotus. It's best if you use it sparingly in the future, "Xiao Hei suddenly said.

Zhuowen couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. The blood lotus was extremely powerful. When he first created this move on the Sandstone Isle, he didn't feel anything at all. At the time, his technique was still extremely immature and unpracticed. The blood lotus he created was only comparable to the full-powered attack of an early two-wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator.

However, as Zhuo Wen continued to delve deeper into the principles of the blood-colored lotus, he became increasingly proficient at mixing them together. In the end, the blood-colored lotus formed from the mixture reached its most perfect state. The might of this perfect blood-colored lotus far exceeded Zhuo Wen's expectations. It could actually threaten a three-wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator.

Of course, the backlash from the perfect state of the blood lotus was also extremely great. After using it once, Zhuowen directly lost all ability to fight. If the blood lotus couldn't completely destroy the enemy, then Zhuowen would definitely be destroyed. This move was already extremely extreme.

"Why is the difference between the blood lotus and the ice and fire lotus so great?

The backlash from the ice and fire lotus is almost negligible to me, but the backlash from the blood lotus makes me wish I was dead. The difference between the two is really too great! "

Shaking his head, Zhuowen rather missed the ice and fire lotus of the past. With his current physical quality, the backlash from the ice and fire lotus was just child's play!

"Hehe!

Can the ice and fire lotus be compared to the blood lotus?

The two aren't even on the same level in terms of power. The ice and fire lotus you created back then could only threaten a one-wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator, but the blood lotus can kill a two-wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator and threaten a three-wheel Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator! "Xiao Hei sneered.

Zhuowen nodded. He also knew that the two weren't on the same level in terms of power, but he was depressed and wanted to complain a little.

"Xiao Hei!

Do you think that if my physical body was a little stronger, I would be able to completely resist the backlash from the blood lotus? "Zhuowen seemed to have thought of something as his eyes lit up.

"Of course!

The backlash from the explosion created by the Ice and Fire Sacred Symbol is mainly directed at the physical body. If your physical body is strong enough, you will naturally be able to withstand the backlash from the blood lotus!

Actually, if you had the complete Ice and Fire Sacred Symbol, then you wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. The Sacred Symbol would automatically eliminate the backlash from the explosion for you. "Xiao Hei stroked his chin and smiled.

"The complete Ice and Fire Sacred Symbol?

I can only go to Naga Divine Academy for this matter. After all, the complete Ice and Fire Sacred Symbol is still there! "Zhuowen smiled bitterly.

"Hehe!

Kid, you might not be risking your life to go to Naga Divine Academy for the Ice and Fire Sacred Symbol!

I'm afraid it's for Mu Chenxue. "Xiao Hei suddenly said somewhat mischievously.

Zhuo Wen rubbed his nose when he heard this and was slightly embarrassed. However, he couldn't help but recall that figure that was like a celestial maiden that had descended to the mortal world and that charming kiss in the ancient abode. Perhaps this was the first time in so many years that Zhuo Wen had felt his heartbeat speed up!

Shaking his head and wiping away the thoughts in his mind, Zhuowen knew that it was useless to think about it now. He had to use his actions to prove himself.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Xiao Hei, I've already practiced the Jade Stone Body Tempering Technique to the peak. I don't know how I can improve my physical body next?" Zhuowen came back to his senses and timely changed the topic.

"If you use the proper method, it will be very slow to improve your physical body. However, if you have a high level Body Tempering Technique, then your physical body will improve very quickly, just like the Jade Stone Body Tempering Technique you obtained previously." Xiao Hei pondered and said.

"High level Body Tempering Technique?"

Hearing this, Zhuowen shook his head and there was a touch of bitterness on his face. Body Tempering Techniques were rarer than armor skills. The Jade Stone Body Tempering Technique that Zhuowen obtained last time was a Heaven Level Body Tempering Technique. Therefore, if Zhuowen wanted to quickly improve his physical body, he would need at least an Emperor Level Body Tempering Technique.

However, the rarity of an Emperor Level Body Tempering Technique was comparable to a Superior Emperor Level Armor Skill. It could be said that it was extremely rare. Perhaps even in the House of Marquis Qin, which had a rich heritage, there were not more than five Emperor Level Body Tempering Techniques.

"Didn't that Lü Nantian say that there are many treasures in the Training Mountain?

Perhaps in the Training Mountain, you may be able to find a suitable Emperor Level Body Tempering Technique. "Xiao Hei suddenly said.
