Dragon Blood Saint Emperor

It was worth it!

Though it was agonizing, the enhancement to his physical body greatly increased his strength. It was worth it!

AHHH!

Ye Wushuang threw his head back and roared, venting his pent-up energy!

BOOM!

He slammed his fist against a nearby stone wall. The pure Physical Strength behind the blow instantly blasted a huge crater into the rock, sending cracks snaking outward.

At the same time, the entire space trembled violently, and the rampaging Demon Vein grew even more turbulent!

’With my Physical Strength alone, I can kill a True Essence First Layer cultivator with a single punch. And now that I’m on the verge of the True Essence Realm, I can take down a True Essence Fourth Layer expert without any assistance!’

Ye Wushuang assessed his strength and was quite satisfied.

The higher the Realm, the harder it is to fight across levels. For Ye Wushuang to be able to defeat a True Essence Fourth Layer expert while not even having reached the True Essence Realm himself was a terrifying feat!

Once he broke through to the True Essence Realm, he was confident he could slay someone at the True Essence Fifth Layer and even battle a True Essence Sixth Layer expert!

At this thought, Ye Wushuang couldn’t wait any longer. Seizing the opportunity of being inside the Demon Vein, he began to madly devour the Demon Evil Qi, refining it as he absorbed it to break through to the True Essence Realm.

True Essence wasn’t just a transformation of power; it also allowed one to fly through the air, soaring through the heavens. This was what Ye Wushuang truly longed for!

The Heaven-Devouring Dragon Technique was terrifyingly efficient. It directly converted the Demon Evil Qi into Dragon Spirit Qi, which was then devoured by his eighty-one golden vortexes until they were completely saturated.

Only then did Ye Wushuang stop devouring and begin to compress the Dragon Spirit True Qi.

This massive influx led to a qualitative change. As the endless Dragon Spirit True Qi was continuously compressed, a golden liquid began to appear in the golden vortexes, forming Dragon Spirit True Essence.

BOOM!

At that very moment, waves of terrifying auras descended from above the Demon Vein.

"Holy hell! Run! The experts from the Demon Abyss are here," the Dragon Cat shouted, instantly vanishing into the Chaos Space.

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang’s brow furrowed. He was at a critical point in his breakthrough, yet the Demon Abyss’s experts had caught up to him. What’s more, they had blocked his entrance, leaving him with no way out.

"Follow the Demon Vein to get out!" the Dragon Cat reminded him via voice transmission. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

At these words, Ye Wushuang’s eyes lit up. With his Pseudo-Treasure Body, he could travel along the edge of the Demon Vein completely unscathed. Better yet, he wouldn’t have to interrupt his breakthrough into the True Essence Realm.

Thinking this, Ye Wushuang didn’t hesitate. He immediately began to travel along the Demon Vein.

BOOM!

Just as Ye Wushuang departed, a series of figures charged down. However, the moment they arrived, the violent energy from the rampaging Demon Vein slammed into several disciples, causing them to spit up blood on the spot!

Normally, staying in a place with such dense energy would be a blessing, but right now, they couldn’t stop the terror rising within them!

The energy was simply too terrifyingly dense. Even with their Demonic Cultivation Techniques, they couldn’t withstand it; the Demon Evil Qi invaded their bodies and ruptured their meridians on contact.

They were not Ye Wushuang; they didn’t have the Chaos Dragon Tomb to help them. They had no choice but to retreat. Only the Demon Abyss Master and a group of Elders dared to approach the Demon Vein.

When they finally arrived, they saw Ye Wushuang escaping along the path of the Demon Vein.

Meanwhile, the Demon Vein was raging, with Demon Evil Qi spilling out, seemingly on the verge of erupting to the surface.

"That little bastard actually dares... Is he insane?!" an Elder exclaimed, staring in shock at the figure within the Demon Vein. In all his years, he had never seen anyone dare to walk inside a Demon Vein.

At this moment, even the Demon Abyss Master was stunned. He knew best how terrifying the Demon Vein was. Forget an outsider; even some of the strongest disciples of the Demon Abyss didn’t dare set foot inside.

And yet, Ye Wushuang was swimming through it like a roaming dragon!

’What kind of terrifyingly powerful body must he have to withstand such a dreadful impact?’ The Demon Abyss Master didn’t dare to even imagine it!

This boy was terrifying!

"Don’t let him escape!"

An Elder snapped back to his senses, immediately preparing to strike with a massive palm.

Seeing this, the Demon Abyss Master’s expression changed drastically. "Stop!" he yelled, instantly intercepting the Elder’s attack.

"The Demon Vein is already unstable. If you attack, you’ll destroy it completely!" the Demon Abyss Master said, his face grim. "If the Demon Vein is destroyed, the Demon Abyss will face annihilation."

The other Elders knew this as well, but watching Ye Wushuang get away while they were powerless to act filled them with immense frustration!

Never had anyone made them feel so utterly powerless.

Instantly, their eyes looked ready to pop from their sockets as they jumped up and down in a fury, roaring, "Detestable! Detestable! That damned little bastard! I, this Elder, will flay him alive and use his skin as a seat cushion!"

"Elders, first stabilize the Demon Vein! Xie Xiao, you take some men and pursue him. Follow the Demon Vein! You must capture that little bastard."

"Remember, kill anyone who gets in your way!"

The Demon Abyss Master was also gnashing his teeth, hating Ye Wushuang so much he wished he could subject him to death by a thousand cuts.

But he couldn’t act on it now. The priority was to stabilize the Demon Vein. Any mistake here would lead to a truly terrifying outcome.

"Ye Wushuang!"

Xie Xiao spat out those two words through gritted teeth, hatred and killing intent shrouding his blood-red eyes. He quickly led a group of men in pursuit.

「Meanwhile.」

Ye Wushuang was cloaked in Golden Dragon Scale Armor, a phantom golden Dragon Shadow coiling around him. He was like an Emperor of the Dragon Race, swimming freely within the Demon Vein.

’The Chaos Heaven-Devouring Dragon Body is as terrifying as they say. If a mere Pseudo-Treasure Body grants this kind of physical form, what about a Treasure Body or a Holy Body? And what about the Chaos Body and First Generation Body above them? Would my physical body then be able to suppress heaven and earth?’

Ye Wushuang was stunned.

"Boy, don’t celebrate too early," the Dragon Cat grumbled. "You’re only at the Pseudo-Treasure Body stage, which doesn’t even count as a real Treasure Body. When it comes to physical bodies, you’re at the very bottom. If you run into a true constitutional Celestial Pride, you’ll get completely wrecked."

"What’s a constitutional Celestial Pride?" Ye Wushuang asked.

"You’ll find out in the future. You’re too weak—Lord Cat could crush you. But don’t worry! Bathed in the glorious light of Lord Cat, by the time you meet them, you might just be able to wreck them! Beat them like dogs, GAGAGA! When that happens, just remember to have them give Lord Cat *****" the Dragon Cat said narcissistically, a look of sheer bliss on its face.

It was as if it was already lost in a daydream of conquering the world, sweeping aside all other Celestial Prides, and basking in the admiration of countless female cats...

BAM!

Suddenly, a huge Palm Seal fell from the Chaos Space, swatting the Dragon Cat away and interrupting its reverie.

"Goddamn it, you little bastard! You ambushed Lord Cat!"

The Dragon Cat roared furiously, looking ready to throw down.

But then another massive Palm Seal slammed down, pinning it to the ground.

"I didn’t ambush you this time, did I."

Ye Wushuang’s voice echoed in the Chaos Space, making the Dragon Cat want to cough up blood in fury.

"Kid, you’ve deeply wounded Lord Cat’s tender little heart! If you don’t hand over the Spirit Medicine on you to Lord Cat, Lord Cat will never forgive you!" the Dragon Cat roared.

Hearing this, Ye Wushuang sneered. ’Wounded its tender heart, yet it’s still after my Spirit Medicine!’

Ignoring the creature, Ye Wushuang focused his attention on his Dantian.

Now, the golden liquid in his Dantian was like a vast ocean, having formed eighty-one small lakes!

They shone with brilliant golden light, like eighty-one suns illuminating the Chaos Dantian!

He had finally broken through to the True Essence Realm!

Ye Wushuang felt a terrifying energy that made the Dragon Blood in his body boil. This power was none other than Dragon Spirit True Essence!

Half an hour later, with a loud RUMBLE, Ye Wushuang burst out of a narrow exit created by the Demon Vein’s turbulent force, his figure landing in front of a canyon.

BOOM!

In the distance, terrifying streams of Divine Sense spread out like a dragnet, searching every corner of the Demon Vein’s location.

Someone suddenly discovered Ye Wushuang’s tracks and immediately shouted, "Quick! Ye Wushuang is over there."

Instantly, everyone turned and charged toward Ye Wushuang, their killing intent palpable. Among them were even terrifying experts of the Spiritual Spring Realm.

Although they were still far away, a barrage of terrifying attacks was already swarming toward him.

A cold glint flashed in Ye Wushuang’s eyes. He took a single step into the sky, unleashed Floating Light and Shadow, and flew away from the canyon by walking on the very air.
