Chapter 4332
“It’s unfortunate that no matter how powerful you are, you’re still just at the seventh rank of the Transition Realm. I suppose having a thousand years of Yang Yuan would be beneficial, but you still wouldn’t be able to handle this death qi,” remarked the Red Cloud Demon Lord.
“If you were like me, with ten thousand years or more of Yang Yuan, this death qi wouldn’t pose much of a threat. After all, this small amount of death qi can’t drain much vitality or Yang Yuan,” he continued.
Upon hearing this, Kai was left speechless. The Red Cloud Demon Lord had accumulated ten thousand years of Yang Yuan, but it was a shame he had been decapitated, leaving only a remnant of his soul behind!
If that residual soul hadn’t remained, even billions of years of Yang Yuan would have been useless, as he would still be dead.
“What happens if I absorb all this dead qi? That guy was able to use it for his cultivation—why can’t I?” Kai questioned.
He believed that his Concentrated Heart Skill could refine everything, even the Yin Fiend Qi he had previously absorbed!
This Deadly Qi was similar to that Yin Fiendish Qi!
“That person must have a technique for cultivating with dead qi. If you lack such a technique and absorb it indiscriminately, won’t you just hasten your own demise?” the Red Cloud Demon Lord warned.
“Who says I don’t have a technique!” Kai retorted. Immediately, he activated the Condensing Heart Technique, causing a torrent of dead qi to rush toward his body!
“What is Chen doing? This is dead qi! How can he absorb it?” Patriarch Jiang exclaimed, startled.
The Palace Master of the Broad Cold Palace frowned slightly, concern etched on her face.
Meanwhile, the Eldest Senior Brother watched in shock before breaking into a cold laugh, “Daring to absorb my death qi? It seems you’re eager to meet your end…”
As Kai continued to draw in the dead qi, his body visibly aged, giving the impression that he could perish at any moment!
Yet, just as Patriarch Jiang and the others grew worried, and Di Chongjing and his companions felt gleeful, the overwhelming dead qi was surprisingly absorbed into Kai’s body!
Despite his appearance aging, Kai did not die. Aside from looking older, he showed no other signs of distress!
As he persistently operated the Heart Concentration Technique, a brilliant streak of golden light flickered in his chest!
In mere moments, Kai’s body began to recover at an astonishing rate!
Within just a few breaths, he returned to his original form, and the aura surrounding him had notably strengthened!
“This dead qi is fantastic! It’s an excellent resource for cultivation. Do you happen to have more?” Kai asked, turning to the astonished Eldest Senior Brother.
The Eldest Senior Brother stood frozen, his smile wiped from his face, utterly dumbfounded.
“How are you… able to refine dead qi? Why?” he stammered, disbelief etched on his features.
He understood the potency of the dead qi; even with a technique to refine it, his own body had taken on a ghostly appearance from its cultivation. Yet, here was Kai, who had absorbed an immense amount of dead qi without any adverse effects—this was simply unbelievable!
“Oh, I forgot to mention—my gongfu can refine anything. What’s so challenging about a mere dead qi? Whatever you have, feel free to bring it on!” Kai said with a smug smile.
“I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it! It must be that the dead qi is scarce. I refuse to accept that you can refine dead qi…” the Eldest Senior Brother hissed, descending into a frenzy as he desperately tried to absorb the dead qi from the recently deceased cultivators!
However, there were only so many recently deceased; such dead qi could only be found in freshly deceased bodies, while the skeletons around them had long since lost their dead qi, leaving only the Yin Fury qi behind!
Realizing that the dead cultivators had already been drained of their dead qi, the Eldest Senior Brother turned his gaze to Di Chongjing.
“Eldest Senior Brother, what… are you doing?” Di Chongjing asked, fear evident on his face.
“To eliminate these people, I have no choice but to condemn you…” the Eldest Senior Brother declared, suddenly launching an attack toward Di Chongjing!
